At the Shinomiya mansion.
In Hayasaka Ai's room.
Kaguya Ojou-sama began typing with a poking motion using two fingers.
She had always used a flip phone before, so ever since switching to a smartphone, her typing speed had been terribly slow.
"Hayasaka, are you sure that if I say that, he will believe it? He's very suspicious. He'll definitely feel that sothing is wrong." Kaguya said worriedly.
She tried putting herself in the opponent's shoes.
If they were the ones who won, they would definitely take the chance to mock the other side rcilessly, who would care about the enemy's feelings?!
Not like those braindead main characters in manga.
When they were kids, their parents were killed by so bastard, and by the end of the story, the main character forgives him, like ["Ah, this person who killed my parents had his own hardships, my parents are dead, I can't kill him anymore, after all he didn't an it"].
It feels kind of idiot like that.
Kaguya didn't think he was such an idiot that he could be fooled so easily.
"You have a good point." Hayasaka Ai pondered.
Judging by Sakurai's personality, he definitely wouldn't believe it, he might even think Kaguya-sama is setting up another trap for him to walk into.
Sakurai is very suspicious, especially about abnormal things like this, he will definitely find out!
"Hayasaka~" Kaguya whispered: "How about… I admit defeat. I'll dance for him once, it's not that hard…"
"No way!!" Hayasaka Ai said firmly.
Hayasaka: ( ◺˰◿ ) NO!
A man and a woman alone together, and the woman dancing for the man, that looks wrong no matter how you see it!
Especially since that man is her boyfriend!
'If I agree to this, wouldn't that be the sa as putting a cuckold's horns on my own head?'
...Even though in so of her recent dreams, she kind of had the feeling like she was really putting those horns on herself.
Hayasaka: (っ- ‸ - ς)
Hayasa-nyan: (๑>•̀๑)
"Why not?" Kaguya said while mistyping words.
She hurriedly deleted the characters, then continued typing with her cute two-finger typing style.
"If I admit defeat and explain the reason to him, Sakurai-san might give up on making fulfill the bet condition, the possibility... isn't completely zero..."
"No way, Kaguya-sama." Ai-chan thought she should give up that illusion soon and choose the path of fighting instead.
For example, cheating.
"But Hayasaka, my brother once told that the Shinomiya family must uphold the spirit of honoring contracts, and I've always thought that was one of my strengths."
The brother she ntioned was nad Shinomiya Un'yo, like Kaguya, he was also raised under the Shinomiya family's Spartan style.
Kaguya's sense of honoring contracts was also influenced by him.
"Un'yo-sama?" In Hayasaka's mind appeared mories of this person.
A man who liked to wear suits, with a very cunning expression.
Un'yo was the third son of the Shinomiya family, and because he was the son of the second wife, his faction within the Shinomiya family was quite weak, making him the one with the lowest chance of succession, only above Kaguya-sama.
They say Kaguya has inheritance rights, but there's basically no chance for her to beco the head of the family, because she's a woman.
Conglorates in Japan would never let a weak woman beco the family head, just like the public would not easily choose a woman as pri minister, Fujiwara Chika's dream would probably have to wait a long ti to co true.
"Except for having trash morals, he can be considered a sowhat decent brother, even compared to my other two brothers, he can even be called a 'good person'." Shinomiya Kaguya said this and then laughed at herself.
The Shinomiya family really doesn't have many good people.
Even Kaguya herself considers her own position to be that of a villain.
Last year, and even the first half of this year, she was still thinking in the Shinomiya family's way, which was putting profit first.
'People will never help others unconditionally.' That's what she used to believe.
Those who did so were all fools, all insects.
But in the student council, there seed to be way too many fools like that.
Shirogane Miyuki was the biggest fool of them all, followed by Sakurai Saki, who apparently even went to help the kendo club this ti, just because of a request from Kojima, without even getting paid.
Secretary Fujiwara, although often unable to understand what others are saying, sohow gave off a strangely warm feeling, and Kaguya really liked her.
Ishigami, even though he did poorly in studies, had been trying hard lately. Kaguya knew about his middle school incident, which was why she cared about Ishigami so much, even helping him review before exams.
Even Iino Miko—the adorable Kouhai who wasn't a student council mber but often ca over—was also a good person who always thought of others and acted in her own way, even though that girl herself was a bit lacking in flexibility.
"Kaguya-sama, you've really changed a lot." Seeing Kaguya's gentle expression, like a mother seeing her daughter grow up, a faint smile appeared on Ai-chan's face as well.
Hayasaka: ❀.(*´◡`*)❀
Ever since joining the student council, Kaguya-sama had beco a little more stubborn, but she had lost much of her coldness, becoming much softer.
Princess Kaguya, who lived on the moon, had finally found her own sun, sothing that could warm her heart.
"I know, you're thinking I'm being stubborn again." Shinomiya Kaguya knew her too well.
Kaguya: (¬`‸´¬)
"...Actually, no." Hayasaka Ai said helplessly.
Alright, maybe a little.
Ever since Kaguya joined the student council, Ai-chan's own stress had increased a lot too.
"Kaguya-sama, if you don't reply, he'll send another ssage first."
"It's your fault, Hayasaka, stop talking to and let think about what to type." Kaguya-sama lowered her head and stared intently.
"...Once the ssage is read, it'll show a 'read' notification." Hayasaka Ai feared she didn't know that.
"I know that. The mont I downloaded LINE, I imdiately checked which features could save from embarrassnt."
After all, she was a complete newbie when it ca to smartphones, and if she didn't study beforehand, she might end up in another embarrassing situation like last ti.
Kaguya was referring to that ti when she and everyone in the student council discussed having babies by kissing.
"You really have great foresight about this."
"Why do I feel like lately, Hayasaka, you've been looking for ways to mock ?" Shinomiya Kaguya frowned.
Kaguya: (.≖ˇｪˇ≖｡)
"I really haven't."
Hayasaka: ( ｡ •̀ ᴖ •́ ｡)
Hayasaka felt extrely wronged; this ti she was genuinely complinting her seriously.
But it seed like...
Since she had teased her too many tis recently, now Kaguya was starting to automatically imagine it herself.
"Oh no, he sent a ssage."
"Let see. 'You won this ti, I'm willing to admit defeat, but wearing Miko outfit and dancing is really a bit too much, can you change it to sothing else?'"
The words were plain, but Kaguya didn't know why she could see Sakurai Saki's inner struggle through them.
It felt as if he had fought long and hard with his own pride, then reluctantly considered changing the bet's condition.
"Isn't that great? He's giving Kaguya-sama a step down."
"But if I agree too easily, wouldn't that seem a bit strange?" Kaguya asked.
"It's fine. If you agree, he might even feel lucky, and whether he regrets it later... well, he probably will." Hayasaka Ai, wanting to reduce the amount of contact her boyfriend had with Kaguya-sama, was stabbing Sakurai Saki in the back like crazy.
Is this what a woman's possessiveness looks like? Truly scary.
"Oh, then I'll say it's because you, Hayasaka, begged , so I'm sparing him this ti." Kaguya-sama said as she sped up her typing.
Hearing that, Hayasaka Ai's moist eyes widened in horror, her face full of shock.
Wait! Why are you dragging into this?!
...
On the other end, Sakurai Saki looked at the ssage Shinomiya Kaguya sent and let out a sigh of relief.
Luckily his girlfriend was the other side's maid, or else there was no way he could have escaped wearing a Miko outfit and dancing.
[Today's outco: Sakurai Saki lost! (Successfully tricked, though he realized it very quickly afterward.)]
