Vol 6 Chapter 4 (1/2)
The Fourth Question
Yoshi+ Akihisa and Sakamoto Yuuji’s real horror story introduction
“That’s how it is I, Yoshi+ Akihisa, and…”
“I, Sakamoto Yuuji…”
“Will introduce to everyone ‘horror experiences’ our readers have passionately sent in”
“Isn’t this plan too weird?”
“Even if you say so, it’s proper manners not to say it out and keep it in your heart, Yuuji”
“You already revealed your true thoughts when you say things like that Neverthe first mail”
“Understood Today’s first est A-boy in shi+buya’”
“There’s a lot of things I want to say here He can call himself B-boy anyway, or put the name as Akihabara”
“Let’s see…the paragraph in the mail looks like it’s written in a Hip-Hop tune, so I think it’s better to read it in a Hip-Hop manner, I suppose?”
“Hip-Hop? I don’t understand what thatit in a suitable manner”
“Got it Here I go— ‘Yeah, I’ hard to glory! But I don’t do for supplementary lessons!’”
“If you want to head to glory, don’t skip supplementary lessons”
“‘Listen to my this, turn around and look!’”
“See, it’s because you skipped supplementary lessons that you mixed up ‘this’ and ‘disc’”
“‘I don’t listen to anyone! I have countless wo because of me!’”
“That crying woht?”
“My rap is energetic and loud! All the japs nearby are crying for their mommas!’”
“Hm…? Rap…? Ahh, I see…oi Akihisa, you don’t have to continue reading”
“‘The scary guy is really’—eh? I don’t have to continue? The scary part hasn’t appeared yet”
“Don’t mind”
“But…”
“But you can send a mail back to him that he mixed up Rap with supernatural sounds”[1]
“Heh?”
“…Don’t make me explain it”
“…Ah…I see…”
“…That’s how it is”
“…I shouldn’t have opened that mail in the first place…”
“…I feel so too…for soh it’s not my fault…”
(A test of courage tourna is what I’m weakest at)
(Ane-ue, you stepped on it You stepped on the karakasa-obake!)[2]
(Ah sorry I didn’t spoil it, right?)
I see Those two are really a or even geting baited by the honey trap It’s like there are flowers saddled around theet along well
“If it’s the two of theress safely”
“Yeah The Kinoshi+tas probably won’t fall into any honey traps”
Nothing actually happens on the way, and Hideyoshi+’s group finally appears at where that beauty sempai is
(Oh irls, I can’t stop you two Please proceed on your own)
(That’s what she said, Hideyoshi+ We’ll listen to sempai and proceed on)
(Muu…even though we’re allowed to pass through, how should I explain the bitterness in my heart…)
The senior in the kiet in their way
“That sempai simply opened a way for them”
“Yeah Either way, this lack of resistance from her is way too weird”
My stare again returns back to the monitor As Hideyoshi+ and his sister moves from the senior in kimono, the other one of the Toko-Natsu pair—the Mohawk head (Tsune there
“What in the world? Is this what they’re using to deal with Hideyoshi+? But he doesn’t look as weird as that baldy-senpai I don’t see anything that’s going to make anyone scream”
Either way, I can’t see anything weird That Mohawk-se to call out a powerful su that will cause Hideyoshi+ to screa horrible…no, it doesn’t look like he’ll be calling out his summoned beast
(You finally ca for you)
(What is it? Were thou waiting for me? What is tis you want?)
(I don’t knohat’s going on, but if you have so on, just hurry up and settle it, Hideyoshi+ We still have to go on)
(You’re right I don’t knohat you want, but please keep it short)
(Un, it’s fine I won’t take too long…Kinoshi+ta Hideyoshi+, please listen)
(What is it?)
On the screen, the Mohawk-sempai looks serious as he walks towards Hideyoshi+
Then, he says to Hideyoshi+ with a clear, unmistakeable tone,
(—I've always loved you)
For the first time in my life—I heard Hideyoshi+ scream for real
“I, I’m really sorry, Yuuji, Akihisa…I actuallyscream…”
“You don’t have to worry, Hideyoshi+ It’s understandable that you were confessed to by a gay—and a disgusting guy like that”
“Yeah, Hideyoshi+ Your sister was going ‘why a moves on you It’s impressive that you only screamed out”
“Ane-ue’s wrestling moves were really bad…but I’d had the worst when he started reading that love poe about me…”
That was really an inco to maintain consciousness theon me’ Of course, the fear Hideyoshi+ felt, who listened until the very end, couldn’t be measured
“If possible, I wanted to use ane-ue’s power to break through C classroom…and even if we couldn’t, I hoped to at least wear them out”
The situation now is bad There’s not a lot of people who can break through that ki?) Maybe Yuuji and Kirishi+h safely, but they will have to bear the heavy h A class’ checkpoints We can’t let the the traps within A classroom
“You don’t have to worry, Hideyoshi+ They have roughly gotten information on our side, but we do have a secret weapon here If it’s these two, they won’t be fooled by appearances, and should probably clear this successfully”
“Eh? Do we have such people?”
The people fro disqualified one after another, and the other ordinary boys froh Kogure-seht?
“The girls will likely be afraid of the crewcut-seirls cosplay and the Mohawk-sempai (Tsunemura) and won’t proceed on…”
“No, the Toko-Natsu pair won’t be able to scare us anyot sent off like that, so it probably won’t appear again Also, the Mohawk-seeted at Hideyoshi+”
That’s true Tsunemura-sempai’s confession just noasn’t an act as it was able to scare Hideyoshi+ like that Hideyoshi+ will probably be able to see through it if it were an act Speaking of which, that confession just now…is probably from deep within his heart
“Is that so…that eted at Hideyoshi+…?”
Seriously Hideyoshi+’s body visibly trembles once he hears that line It seems that the confession just now left quite an emotional scar in him
“That’s how it is That kind of dangerous attack won’t happen again”
Fro to explain it to ain to me?
“So you can go on ahead safely, Akihisa and shi+mada”
“Eh? What? Are you saying the secret weapon is Minami and me?”
“Do, don’t joke around! You’re sending us to our deaths even aftersuch things?”
Minas herself as she shows a scared look, ical attacks one after another Looking at her right noe ht be disqualified before we even reach the checkpoint…
“Yuuji, this is really too hard Minami’s really scared now, and even if we can really last until the checkpoint, Minami and my points won’t be able to beat the 3-A students”
It’s not like Yuuji to not even consider this
“You don’t have to think so e trip with shi+mada shi+rab Akihisa’s hand”
“Uu…I, I’m not scared…”
“Ahh, I know, I know What I mean is, since Akihisa will be scared, I hope you’ll accompany him, shi+mada Akihisa has his own pride as a rab his arm”
“Is, is that so? Since you say so, Sakarab Aki But it’s not because I’ Aki because I want to be close to him!”
“Well…shi+htforward…”
“Did you say so, Kinoshi+ta!?”
“No, I said nothing”
Minami’s stubbornness is really troublesome”
“Neveron, but since Yuuji says so, I’ll go in then Let’s go, Minami”
“Uu…r, right”
“We, well, Minao in, I can…”
“Uun! It’s not like I don’t want to go in! I’ve always been looking forward to it, really, really looking forward to it! Also, Aki and I were already assigned to go in! Hey, let’s go, Aki!”
“AGAAH! Mi, Minarab the arht…”
“Ahh, Akihisa, hold on a moment”
As Mina me and ready to leave the class, Yuuji suddenly calls us
“Is, is there anything, Yuuji?”
We stop, and Yuuji walks over to us to whisper to me
(I’et to that kiirl, I want you two to hide and check whether there are any other people around and secretly come back Understand?)
(Eh? What does that mean? Won’t I be disqualified if I come back like that?)
Like Yuuji, I keep my voice down
(Don’t worry You won’t be considered disqualified unless you let out a screaher than the limit, or if your summoned beasts lose in battle The rules never stated that you can’t come back, so there’s no problem)
(It’s fine if there’re no problems, but is there any particular reason as to e’re to do this?)
(Alright, just hurry up and get in!)
Yuuji pats my back and looks like he wants to hurry me out of the classroom
It’s simple for me to follow his instructions, but I have no idea why Yuuji wantsso far away, and he wantsto do?
“Uu, never mind Let’s do our best, Minami”
“Uuu…!”
My ar to feel numb due to lack of blood circulation, and I’m seriously worried about my arm
“…Let’s go, shi+ins”
“…You’re right”
As alk into the corridor, I see
Pa It see floats by
“Woah!”
“—!!”
That surprised host in a cloth made from an old curtain, and it does look rather scary with the dim expression
“UBOAHHH…”
“—!”
This ti towards an inexplicable direction That should be souess? Thescream from the front, and the summoned beast closes in froht of Kirishi+ than this
“It’s a little disgusting, but you can still take this, right, Minami?”
“(Shakes head frantically)!”
This isn’t okay at all! Mina da to me here, so why is she still so scared here?
We continue to head to the exit through the maze that’s made of panels and black cloth daet lost
“Speaking of which…Mina onto me like this…”
One ofonto the cahtly by her At this rate, even if I reach the door, I won’t be able to open it No, the arhtly by Minami, but I hope that the area below the elbow can move freely
“—(Shakes head frantically)”
Not good Minao Also, I think et dislocated by her
It seems like whatever I say won’t reach her ears, so I can onlyif I say that I’ so terrified Is there anything that can divert Minami’s attention?
“Ah, Minami, there’s aover there If you just look over outside the , maybe you can—”
The cellophane paper that’s stuck on theli into the haunted house, but we can still see the scenery outside the classrooain soht?
(Kihihihihihi…! I hate…)
The head of a long-necked woman floats by outside the , and it looks real Whose summoned beast is that? I can even see the details of the forehead floating by takes to the light I was careless because I thought we can see the scenery outside, but such a shocking ier fear in her
“…Sorry for that I didn’t actually expect this”
“Uu…I don’t want this…I shouldn’t have coo back, Aki…”
Minas ood, this isn’t the Minami I know…
SHAKA!
“Heh?”
Suddenly, ainto the wall
Tsul…a bright red liquid slowly drops down my face
“Ah, ahaha…what kind of trap is this? It’s really direct…”
This mechanical pencil that’s stabbed into the wall is made of metal, and it not only destroys the wall, it even pierced through it This mechanism is really too scary! The rules should specify that direct attacks are forbidden, right? Noshouldn’t be aiht?
“…I won’t miss next time, you bastard swine…”
da froe tourna me
“Mi, Minao back to the classroom later”
“…Si, since you say so, Aki, I’ll do my best…”
The weak and helpless Minaood I really want to turn our F classroom into a haunted house to let Minami be in such a pitiful state all year around
“shi+mizu-san, calm down first It’s still too early to make your move here”
“Yo, you’re right We should head to a more scary place and pull onee-sama away from that swine”
“It’s a good thing the rules never specified that we can’t switch partnersof the rules is really impressive”
Anyway, I better follow Yuuji’s instructions and try to get to that Kimono-sempai first Yuuji wants me to reach there and then secretly head back In that case, I can also fulfill Mina back
I continue to head to the target based on the vague memory I had of the monitor Whenever there’s a point where it is scary, Minahter, but the killing intent behindis behind us, but if it’s so probably won’t be able to see our movements
“Speaking of which, I didn’t expect you to be so scared of haunted houses, Minami”
If I don’t say anything, Minami will probably be more terrified, so I decide to talk to her randomly
“Tha, that’s because…it can’t be helped It’s okay if it’s Ger about japanese youkais…like how a lantern will stick out aher neck really long, I don’t know anything about them at all…”
Ahh, I see Mina about how some of the youkais look like, so that’s why she’s really scared right? People will be terrified of ‘things they don’t really know about’, so it can’t be helped for Minami to be scared when she isn’t familiar with japanese youkais
“But you should hurry up and familiarize yourself with japan”
“It doesn’t ht as well return back to Germany”
Minami puffs her cheeks unhappily as she says this Does she really hate youkais…?
“But Minami, it’ll be so lonely if you head back to Germany on your own…”
“Of course not I won’t feel lonely at all I do have o there, I won’t be alone!”
Minaainst in a stubborn tone Eh? Is sheme?
“Ahh, no, that’s not what I mean,”
“Then what do you mean?”
