"...you really like to drink it, huh?"

"It's nice, you know? Do you want to drink it?"

"...."

Watching his reaction, Ibara laughed, then asked curiously, "So... have you done that with Irisu-senpai?"

"Yes."

"....." Ibara.

"Didn't she tell you?" Satoshi asked.

"Hmph! That woman treated like a servant!"

Ibara was angry at Irisu since that woman used her like a tool, especially when Irisu just asked her to make an excuse for Irisu so Irisu could go to Tokyo with Satoshi.

Did Irisu even think about how nervous she was when she talked with Irisu's parents?!

Yet, what could Ibara do?

Ibara could only follow Irisu's whim as she bit her thumb, feeling so jealous, yet sohow, Irisu also helped her, especially with how stuffy her situation was at the Manga Research Club.

She had always been outspoken, so when she couldn't accept a certain thing, instead of holding it deep in her heart, enduring it, she spoke what was within her mind, and this often clashed with the other mbers, especially with the hierarchy of the school, which was so solid.

The older one should be listened to and respected; this was the ironclad rule of the society.

Unless one was so powerful or had a connection, such as Irisu, Kaho, or Chitanda, who had wealthy and influential parents, or Satoshi, who had incredible abilities, then, like any others, they had to follow the masses.

Yet, Ibara didn't want to, especially when the view of the manga in the Research Manga Club was just to appreciate a manga and just beco a consur instead of being a creator. The fact that Satoshi beca a mangaka lit up the spirit within her, but unfortunately, while she had a certain ability, her talent wasn't exceptional, so she was being targeted by the upperclassn. Fortunately, she was Irisu's follower, so no one dared to ss around with her.

"Yet, you still joined that club?"

"Not everyone is like that, after all."

While so caused trouble, so weren't bad as they often talked about many things together, and Ibara also had a good mory of the Research Manga Club. If sothing disappointed her, it was how no one would help her and made her feel like a point spear to face all of the critiques and conflicts in the club, including the captain of the club.

"I have thought of stopping sohow."

"Really?"

"Yes, it's troubleso there, and."

"And?"

"Instead of being with them, it is better to be with you since I can learn more with you."

With Satoshi being a mangaka, why should Ibara stay in the Research Manga Club?

Instead, she might as well have left and spent her ti with Satoshi.

"If possible, you should make your own studio, by then... we can..."

With a reddened face, Ibara told him her real purpose.

"...."

"Studio, huh?"

While Satoshi was speechless at how lewd Ibara had beco, he also had to admit that her idea for him to make a manga studio was a good one. He could rent a house and then turn it into a manga studio, but at the sa ti, this place could also be used for other purposes, which would definitely be fun.

"Kaho will be there, it will be hard for you to co in."

"....."

Ibara opened her lips, then closed them again. If possible, she wanted him to just break away with Kaho and go out with Irisu or her. Either way, if it were her or Irisu, she believed that they could tolerate each other's existence, but Kaho was different.

After all, the aning of Satoshi in Kaho's heart was definitely imnse, especially when he saved her during a critical mont when she was at the loss of her father, who had a sudden heart attack. At the sa ti, with many of the days they shared, including the immoral activities that they often did in the clubroom of the Fortune Telling Research Society, it was definitely ti for Kaho to let him go.

If they tried to steal him, Ibara could imagine that Kaho might do sothing extre.

"Do sothing about your girlfriend, so you can date all of us together."

"...." Satoshi.

"What? Why are you looking at like that?"

"No, I just think that I am lucky to have you."

"Oh, you..."

Ibara clung directly to him, rubbing her face against his neck and face like a kitty.

Yes, when Satoshi thought of Ibara and Irisu, he knew that he was lucky, especially when they didn't mind him being a scumbag.

Yet, if one thought carefully, if there was a reason why the two could accept each other so easily, it was because of how amazing he was.

With how impressive he was, wasn't it natural for him to attract many beautiful won?

Even the beautiful, career-oriented woman in Tokyo was attracted by him, so how could he not easily attract those countryside won who knew nothing about the glamor of the city?

Moreover, while Takayama was known as the biggest city in this country, soone like Satoshi was the only one. Not only had he beco smarter, fitter, taller, and successful, but he could even have his manga published by a famous publisher. Lastly, he was handso!

With all of that, if he announced all of his achievents, even if he didn't do anything, all the won would be attracted to him like the reaction of a magnet toward a tal.

Still, Satoshi also understood that the fastest way for him to solve all of his problems was to make Kaho understand his relationship with all the won.

'But...'

When he thought of Kaho's eyes that were so obsessed with him that she kept licking every part of his body when he returned—

'Let's do it step by step.'

"By the way, you have done that with Irisu-senpai, right?"

When Ibara asked this question, she sat on his lap and played with the large stick lovingly.

"...do you want to do it?"

"Sure." Ibara bit her lower lip as she nodded, giving him a whisper of love. "If you want, we can do it right away."

"...."

Where would they go?

If Satoshi could give an answer, it would be at Ibara's house, since it was impossible to go to his house when his family knew that Kaho was his girlfriend.

"Wait, let's make it more special."

All of a sudden, Ibara said, "Let's go to my uncle's inn."

"...You uncle's inn?"

"All of us of the Classic Club will go, and by then, we can make an excuse to go... and... you know, right?"

Her uncle's inn was located in another part of the city, and in that place where no one knew them, they could do many things~!

"Ah, but don't you need to draw your manga?"

If Satoshi had nothing to do, it would be fine, but Ibara knew how busy a mangaka was, especially when his manga was serialized weekly.

"It's fine. My work schedule is quite laid back, and I have prepared many stocks, so we can have fun."

"So, we will go, right~?"

"Yes."

"Yay~!"

Ibara was so happy, thinking their chance to be together was so high, but unfortunately, when the day of the trip ca—

"Please take care of us." 2x

Kaho and Irisu slightly bowed their heads since they also followed on this trip.

"....."

Looking at the bright sky, Ibara could only shed tears in silence.

anwhile, Satoshi looked at Chitanda, who stared at him, and asked, "What's wrong, Chitanda-san?"

"N-Nothing."

Yet, that answer made him understand that sothing must be happening.
