643 Just how much of a misunderstanding do you have about me and him!? (2/2)

Hoshi felt a warm feeling in his heart and smiled once again after he felt Seiji's encouragement.

”Is this really alright?”

Chiaki asked Seiji this question after lunch was over and Hoshi left to go back to the middle school section.

Seiji fell silent for a moment.

”I don't know.” He ended up sighing. ”I've never met or seen that Lilith individual before. Judging from her actions, she's not too friendly towards humans… Is this because of the Messenger organization's influence? Or is her nature simply like that? It's impossible to tell.

”Hoshi is the only person who can see her. He obtained power from her and she descended upon his body, taking advantage of him to achieve her own purpose.

”If you think about it in a negative fashion, Lilith is basically using Hoshi like her personal tool. If you think about it in a positive fashion, Hoshi is a special existence for her, and she's an excellent chance for Hoshi to speedily become stronger.

”Whether this is good or bad for Hoshi is impossible to know. I can only leave it up to Hoshi himself to decide. As for whether this is good or bad, I—”

”That's not what I'm asking,” Chiaki interrupted. ”What I'm asking is, is it really alright to let your cute junior jump into someone else's arms?”

”Eh?” Seiji paused in confusion.

”Amami-san has always been so devoted towards you all this time. Now, someone else is in his heart—a mysterious and beautiful girl. Aren't you afraid that he'll soon escape from your harem?”

Seiji was rendered speechless.

”Right now, you're still definitely the number one in Amami-san's heart. As long as you prevent him from having any contact with that girl, he'll definitely obey you! And yet you're choosing to let him do as he wishes. You have no self-awareness as a harem leader at all. Honestly!” Chiaki pretended to pout.

”Honestly? The hell!!” Seiji finally reacted as he understood what she was talking about. ”Just what are you talking about here! Hoshi isn't a member of my harem at all, okay!!??”

”Tsk, you're still being blind to the truth here.” Chiaki ignored his outburst.

”Blind? Yeah, right!! Just how much of a misunderstanding do you have about me and him!?”

”I don't think I have any misunderstandings at all. What do you think, Mika?”

”Chiaki is quite right.” The twintailed girl had a serious expression.

”Hey!!”

”Just admit it, Seiji. Hoshi is an important member of your harem!”

”Is it really alright for the two of you to give a boy the same status as you!?” Seiji retorted forcefully.

”It's not the same at all, right, Mika?”

”Yep, it's not the same.”

”Just what type of tacit agreement did the two of you come to just now!?”

”We think that you did something stupid just now. You should have severely scolded Amami-san and shown off your dominance as the harem king! You should have completely removed all his thoughts of cheating on you!!” Chiaki made a sharp comment.

”That's right, that's how it should be.” Mika nodded and added that.

”I'm not a harem king!! He's not cheating on me at all!!!” Seiji commented with all his might.

Forget about Chiaki joking around, even Mika was joining in this time? Just what was going on!?

”When he really starts cheating on you and leaves your side, just you wait and cry.” Chiaki folded her arms.

Seiji reflexively wanted to comment further upon hearing this, when he suddenly realized...

”Your real meaning is that Hoshi might leave our team?”

Chiaki revealed an expression of ”now you finally understand.”

Mika had an expression of ”that's exactly what I meant.”

Indeed, Seiji hadn't thought of this possibility before.

Seiji giving Hoshi the freedom to choose might cause Hoshi to leave his team in the future… that was indeed possible.
