"Aauu(?????)… Why do I feel so dizzy… My stomach feels awful too… Hic (ˉ?ˉ;)… Auurrgg, am I sick (?????)?"
Shiro lay sprawled on the sofa, looking completely lifeless. When he woke up just now, he was utterly dumbfounded and felt unbearably uncomfortable. Not only was his head spinning, but his stomach had also bloated up noticeably!
In the end, unable to bear it any longer, he rushed to the bathroom with Azusa's support and threw up!
After vomiting, Shiro felt like he had lost a chunk of his memory. He didn't even remember how he ended up in GB—his last memory was supposed to be enjoying the sea breeze on the beach with Nishimiya.
The others, seeing Shiro's miserable state, tacitly chose not to bring up what had just happened. To be honest, the fact that he even woke up after drinking that much was already impressive.
Azusa's annoyance had also disappeared. Perfect timing, she had just found a new movie for her collection. They could watch it tonight!
"Hey, Shiro, it's no big deal. Let's focus on helping Iori and Kohei first."
Azusa patted Shiro's stomach as she spoke. She had to admit, a dazed Shiro was unexpectedly amusing.
Shiro, noticing the way everyone avoided eye contact with him, silently turned his head away. The situation was crystal clear now, this was obviously a group crime!!!
"So, why don't you just ask Chisa?"
After comforting Shiro, Azusa turned to the two guys and suggested. After all, it was more interesting when people of the same age group went on mixers together.
"Uh… well, that's because…"
Kohei's face stiffened, unsure how to explain it to Azusa. Meanwhile, Iori dropped to his knees in front of Chisa.
"Chisa, please!!"
"Go die twenty thousand times, you bastard!"
The previously sweet and smiling Chisa now looked at Iori as if he were a cockroach!
With just that single action, Iori proved that asking Chisa was not an option!
"That's the situation!"
"For some reason, Chisa's been in a bad mood lately…"
Kamidai Shiro was stunned by their series of actions. A mixer?
What mixer?
Why didn't he know about this? So… were they looking down on him, the great King of the Seas?! Why wasn't he invited to the mixer?!
"Hold on, I'm joining the mixer too!"
Shiro shouted, suddenly feeling much more awake!
"Eh? Then, Shiro, do you have someone to introduce to them?"
Azusa, who had just thought of a potential candidate, gave up her spot when she saw Shiro's enthusiasm.
"(′｀;)? Why would I introduce anyone? I just want to join the mixer!"
Shiro looked at Azusa in confusion. Introduce? Why would he introduce someone?!
Who were these two? The top-ranked guys on the school forums! He already avoided them like the plague around girls, why the hell would he help them?!
BAM!
Just as Shiro finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his kidney!
Like two demons, Iori and Kohei pounced on him and started beating the hell out of him!
"You bastard! You just want to attend a mixer?!"
"And you're not even planning to set it up?!"
Hearing Shiro's words, Iori and Kohei suddenly realized—they had been way too kind to this scumbag!
Not only was this guy hoarding his resources, but he was also planning to crash their mixer for free!!!
"You damn bastards! I was trying to elevate your mixer! Otherwise, who the hell would show up to a nerd convention?!"
"Oh, and I suppose you planned to take all the girls for yourself, huh, you hundred-woman-slaying scumbag?!"
"You damn pervert! Living such a sinful life in private, why the hell do you still want to join a mixer?!"
"…"
Azusa watched the three of them brawling with deadpan eyes.
These three idiots… their bond was surprisingly strong, huh?
"Well, if Iori agrees to do me a favor, I'll introduce someone for you guys~"
!!!
Iori, who was just about to shove a finger up Shiro's nose, immediately dropped to his knees before Azusa. His shaking hips made him look exactly like a Husky.
"Really?! I'll do anything!!"
Hearing that, Azusa's face showed an amused expression. Leaning against the sofa, she exuded the elegance of a wisteria queen.
"In that case… Iori, you have to pretend to be Chisa's boyfriend until she's satisfied~"
CRACK!
Iori froze as if struck by lightning. He turned his head back and sighed in relief when he saw that Kohei and Shiro were still busy wrestling.
At the same time… he realized he might have spoken way too soon!
What kind of demonic condition was this?!
"Um… Azusa-san, can I ask why?"
Azusa leaned against the sofa and gave Iori a playful look.
"Hm~ Who knows~"
Maybe she just thought they made an unexpectedly cute pair.
And she was also looking forward to seeing Nanaka's reaction when she found out about this~
"So, Iori, do you agree?"
After thinking for a moment, Iori casually nodded. It wasn't like things could get any worse anyway.
"Alright! It's decided! I'll go find someone suitable for you guys right now!"
Seeing Iori nod, Azusa's eyes sparkled as she ran off excitedly!
Except…
"Eh?"
"Suitable?"
"Wait—!!!"
Hearing her words, the three of them were horrified and reached out to stop her!
"What's wrong?"
"Why so nervous?"
The two upperclassmen watching the scene were confused. As the official spectators, they didn't quite understand what was happening.
Shouldn't they be happy?
Watching Azusa disappear into the distance, the trio's expressions twisted with fear.
"Because when she says 'suitable'—!!!"
After spending so much time with her, they knew how unreliable Azusa was.
When she said "suitable"…
Their minds involuntarily conjured up a scene.
Iori imagined Shiro wearing a collar, crawling at the feet of a dominatrix.
Kohei imagined the captain of the rugby club, dressed in a suit, holding Iori in his arms.
Shiro imagined Kohei hugging a life-sized plushie, looking absolutely overjoyed.
…
"You bastard! What kind of insane fantasy is that?! I'm an S! S, I tell you! I'm the one on top!"
"You idiot! That guy's not even a woman!!!"
"You scumbag! Your fantasy isn't even about a living being! Also, why the hell are you just assuming you're going to the mixer now?!"
The two seniors watching them brawl again were utterly confused.
So… how exactly were these three able to see into each other's fantasies?!
