I Was Possessed By An Unknown Manga Chapter 12: Tōjō Karen

The red-haired girl in the kendo club.

Honestly, I half forgot about it, the next day, she ca to the classroom and revealed her na to Ryuji Sakamoto. And it occurred to belatedly.

That she was Tj Karen, the sixth most popular heroine in Scrambled Love.

When I first read this manga on the internet, what the writer emphasized was that the heroine, whose popularity ranking was only fourth, was connected to the main character.

At that ti, the data collection and attachnt were the results of the popularity vote conducted just before the release of the final volu, and the top six characters were shown in the magazines book color illustration, so I roughly rembered the appearances and nas.

And today, when she ca back to class 2-B, she turned to the main character, Sakamoto, and said, You! Be my man!.

The sudden throwing of a large bait quickly sparked attention among the classmates.

It was about who Sakamoto Ryuji, the confessed party, would date.

Well, its still Yaguchi. Shes nice and friendly, and above all, she has a big chest.

Tsk, you dont know anything. A girlfriend is like a puppy, not as wild as a fierce dog, so how can you endure that?

Isnt Tj in Class A not popular because she has a small chest and is too manly? I prefer the wise mother and good wife style.

It doesnt matter if her chest is big or small. Its about the heart.

It was almost a controversial topic among solo male students.

As a man, I agreed with so of their stories, but I hoped the class would ignore it.

Girls were starting to stare at him like bugs.

Except for Satoru, who sat in the front seat, there was no one to talk about such a story, so Kishimoto, who sat next to , who was quietly observing the situation inside the class, asked .

Ryu-chan, who do you think Sakamoto will date?

Well, I dont know.

It was quite a sensitive question, so I decided to make no comnt.

If the story goes according to the original story anyway, it was already confird that his childhood friend, Maya Yaguchi, would be the final winner at the end.

Oh~ Its not fun~

Kishimoto, who turned her head while saying that, soon beca less interested, and began to read the latest issue of the jump I bought in the morning.

For information, the original owner of that book was .

***

See you tomorrow!

After school, I parted ways with Kishimoto in front of the subway station and headed straight to the gym near my house.

After climbing the high stairs as usual, I opened the door of the gym on the second floor and went inside, and I saw musclen sweating and exercising hard.

But what was this? This sense of incompatibility?

I felt like sothing was different today.

When I instinctively looked around to determine the cause,

Nakayama, the director of the gym, welcod .

You must be busy studying, Mr. Kim, but you still signed your attendance today as always.

Hello, sir. By the way, what happened today? All of a sudden, the mbers are working out harder than usual.

Then the director shook his head and said,

Theres a new female mber at the gym today. Everyone is crazy about how pretty she is.

Oh, my

It was only then that I realized.

That the male mbers in the gym were struggling to appeal to the new mber.

Anyway, go and change your clothes. Ill watch you work out today.

Ah. Thank you.

I listened to Nakayama, the director, and headed to the changing room in the corner of the gym.

***

The gym, which Nakayama runs alone, was about 100 pyeong1A pyeong is a Korean unit of area and floorspace. and was not that large compared to other large gyms.

However, it was almost a sacred place among nearby health workers.

It was because athletes and bodybuilders from here won awards from nurous competitions.

And it was Yujiro Nakayama, the director of this place, who taught them himself.

Originally, he was a forr bodybuilder, but after retiring, setting up a gym was his dream and he put all his energy into fostering younger students.

The first ti I visited this place was during the spring vacation of my third year of middle school, so we worked out together for almost two years.

He was also a very generous person who passed on various knowledge and movents for free, saying that I could watch the moves when I started working out.

When I changed into a light sleeveless shirt in the dressing room, a familiar face stood next to Nakayama.

Fuma Yukika?

When I saw her face, I muttered in spite of myself, and she said with a confident look on her face.

What a coincidence. Kim Yoo-sung. I cant believe were eting at a place like this.

I was wondering who the new female mber was, and I didnt know there would be such a twist.

I lowered my head as I felt a little embarrassed.

You live near here, dont you?

Then Fuma Yukika said with a brazen look.

We moved here a few days ago. I was looking for a fitness club that I could go to separately because I thought I didnt have enough exercise just by doing side activities. I didnt know you were here too.

Nakayama, who heard what we were saying, said with a sly smile.

This is good. From now on, Kim-kun can teach Fuma the exercises instead of . If youre between senior and junior from school, youll be able to talk more comfortably than to an uncle like .

No, it doesnt matter, right?

Then Nakayama sneaked up to , put his arm around my shoulder, and whispered in my ear.

I think youve co all the way here because youre interested, so try your best.

Its not like that.

Hey, dont be shy.

I just decided not to comnt further, as it seed to that there was a strong misunderstanding.

Anyway, since its your first day, were only going to visit today, so lets all start on our own.

Yes.

As the director said, I moved to the free weight zone to exercise.

I was going to do weight squats today.

Lets start warming up lightly with 220kg.

Nakayama, who said so, began to put discs on the empty bar one by one.

The 25-kilogram disc began to stick tightly on both sides of the basic 20-kilogram iron bar.

Four each. 100kg.

The barbell weighing 220 kg was prepared in the squat rack.

Fuma Yukika, who watched the scene from the side, muttered with a surprised look.

So heavy from the start?

Then the instructor standing next to , said with a smile on his face, tapping on the shoulder.

Ive been in this business for over 20 years, miss, but Ive never seen a monster like him in my career. So, you dont have to worry.

I listened to the instructors complint with one ear. A tightly fixed barbell was placed under my trapezius muscle.

Then I lift it up.

When I sat down lightly and got up and put the barbell back on the rack, the instructor imdiately increased the weight.

Then this ti, Ill add two more and weigh 270kg.

Yes.

After adding at once 50kg to the weight of the barbell, Fuma Yukika, who was next to him, opened her mouth, and it was not the main exercise yet.

I put the barbell back on my trapezius muscle and clasped both sides of the barbell with my hands.

Hop!

I breathed in deeply, exhaled repeatedly, and hold it in for a mont to form abdominal pressure, and again, sitting lightly and standing up.

When the still light barbell was put on the rack again, the director, who was watching it from the side with his arms folded, lifted two discs again.

Now that youre done warming up, youre going to start the main exercise.

Yes.

I put the barbell, which was now densely packed with the discs and had no more room to stick, lightly on my trapezius muscle, and then put a strong force on my whole body.

Hop!

I walked a few steps forward with a barbell that was clearly heavier than the first one.

I knew that the eyes of people who were exercising around were focused on , but I had no mind to pay attention to it.

It was a perfect way to get injured if I looked away during weight training.

I sat down with my whole-body muscles properly heated up, and I repeated it five tis.

Thud!!

When the barbell was placed on the squat rack again after one set, Fuma Yukika, who was watching this from the side, said with a fed-up look.

Do you normally exercise like this? As a beginner, I think this is a bit

As I ward up my body right after exercising, I asked.

What? What did you just say?

Then Fuma Yukika stopped talking and shut her mouth like a mute.

The director, who was listening to the conversation we had with each other, laughed, and said,

I told you, miss. Its a monster.

You cant discuss common sense with this guy.
