Chapter 5 - Sports Festival
Eruru woke up but found it difficult to open her eyes
To begin with, the vaical activity during the dayti to bed in spite of the consequences The caffeine resulted in very light sleep and prevented her fro start
Yawning adorably, she left the bedroom to wash her face
Even after doing that, she still felt sleepy
Due to not wearing her glasses, she found the living room quite blurred in view
In any case, she began to reed
Having another coffee later would fix things
As soon as she made mental plans to otten to prepare her change of clothes
Whatever, undress first then return to the bedroo off her pajamas, Eruru noticed a familiar smell
The refreshi+ng and energizing fragrance of coffee
This was rich coffee prepared by skills superior to her own
Her consciousness gradually growing more awake, Eruru looked towards the kitchen
This kitchen, which she seldo its worth while a superbly skilled cook was preparing breakfast inside
Hisuihis best not to look towards Eruru, advising indifferently:
”You'd better put on some clothes first”
This sentence made Eruru completely awake
Blushi+ng, she frantically checked her condition
All she earing was underwear
A cute pink bra covered the gentle curves of her chest, accompanied by a pair of panties
Her pajas
”Y-You!”
”Yeah, I know, after all, it's your own hoo around naked all the time Yeah”
Hisui brought the salad and fried eggs to the dining table and consoled her
However, his eyes were furtively glancing at Eruru in her underwear
”E-Erase those memories instantly!!”
”Hey, don't point your gun at me! Where the heck did you pull that out froun!?”
”Shut your trap!!”
Although she did not shoot, she still used Argentu weapon to whack Hisui hard
Severalat the dining table with a furious look
”Remember your lesson”
”No no, that's the wrong reaction, right? I'm the one who's heavily injured”
All bruised up in the face, Hisui sat opposite to her
Although Eruru did hold back, Hisui was suffering terribly fro lost his special constitution that healed his wounds quickly
”Say, you really should pay uarded when you wake up, you know?”
”S-Shut your trap!! Why did you keep staring!?”
”You're the one who ran over Oh well, it's quite common for people who act all reliable outside to have an undisciplined side at home Hurry and eat, okay?”
Hisui spoke and urged Eruru to start eating
Eruru's face was still red but she finally drank a sip of coffee and picked up the newspaper
”The taste is not bad, but if you think this is enough toof which, why did you make all this?”
”Uh, since you let e is totally empty and your kitchen is pretty much unused, clean as brand new You really should do more house work”
”Such a nag All I need is minimum nourishment!”
”In terms of food, that vampire who used to live in my home was a lot more particular than you Say, why do you live alone? I heard yesterday that you're already working”
”I live separate froether”
”Your dad?”
”I have no father Please do not ain”
With a face filled with resentulp
Seeing her reaction, it was obvious which of her parents was the vampire
For his own personal safety, Hisui decided it would be best not to mention her father
”Want more coffee?”
”Another cup”
Still miffed, Eruru passed the empty cup over
Hisui s Eruru's cup, then cleared the utensils to wash
The way it looked, Hisui was totally the master of the kitchen
”So What are your plans?”
”What plans I was thinking yesterday, ultimately, an official request needs to be ations Section The best course of action is to ask the what treatht receive In the worst case scenario, I shall personally keep her under continuous surveillance to prevent others fro extermination orders”
”Sure Thanks”
”Why do you sound so unconcerned!? Do you understand your current situation!?”
”More or less I've thought about it overnight and organized things Also, you're a good person That's one point I ed to clear up”
””
Eruru gnashed her teeth without saying a word, her face red
Hisui had apparently said that in the past
As expected, people's true personalities never change
”So, I'll leave the rest of the dishes to you I'll be late if I don't leave soon”
”? Wait, where are you going!?”
”Hh school, not middle school”
”What are you talking about? You are currently!”
”I don't have h school student I'o skipping class”
”But!”
”If I feel an urge to drink blood, I'll bite h it's a last resort, it does work to so into a vampire Could you tell those people I encies”
Hisui finished in one breath, not showing any intention to skip school
Stopping him was easy
Although he was in the process of turning into a vampire, he was no match for Eruru after all
There were tons of ways to stop him
But Eruru agreed reluctantly
”Do as you wish However Please do not leave my side in school”
”Yes yes”
Hence The two left the house and went on their way together
Two beings suffering from the same miseries--a vampire's victim and a half-vampire Under the sun's direct rays, they rushed into the classroo tired faces
Rushella was already in the classroo at the two of theaze
Hisui went to his seat, neighboring hers
”Good ”
He greeted her but Rushella did not respond
In the end, the two of thee a word until after school that day
After school, Hisui and Eruru went to the eether
Hisui had no memories of this classroom or the club
But according to Eruru, the ghost and the student council vice-president were running around for his sake so he should show up to listen to the report of their findings at least As for other circumstances, Eruru had not mentioned them
Rushella apparently wasn't co
After all, she was currently a crie of her surveillance and so was absent as well
Although Hisui had no memory Rushella's affairs made him especially worried
The expression she shohen she realized Hisui was turning into a vampire
Although apart from his parent, Hisui had never met any other vampire But definitely, no other vampire would show that kind of face
Even if he really had that kind of constitution for the past year A va to make that kind of expression towards prey
Hisui could not figure it out, so he scratched his head
Hisui and Eruru finally reached the classroom, Hisui pushed the door and entered
”Ah!”
So inside
She did not look anything like a high schooler, but did not appear to be a teacher either, a woht physique She had just taken off her wo a black sports bra and simple shorts that matched
”What are you doing? Oogami-san”
Eruru was the first to speak
”H Hey, what are you looking at!?”
”I'”
Hisui answered calaze away
Mmm, that muscular athlete's body
Graceful and limber
There probably exist people with a thing for that
But Hisui had no such fetish
”W-Why are you acting so uninterested!? Ah Maybe you're shy? Well, you are a boy after all, well? Still a high schooler? Can't be helped Since you want to look, it's not like you can't”
”Let's go outside, Kariya”
”Yes Sorry for disturbing you while you are changing”
”What, that bored face as a reaction!? Hold it right there”
Rangetsu was just about to chase out the door when she suddenly re underwear, leaving her no choice but to retreat with a reddened face
Hisui closed the door and bid farewell to Rangetsu's exposed body, asking Eruru:
”Hmm, who's that?”
”I believe there is no need for you to reet directly”
”Yeah, I get the sa”
Just as Hisui crossed his arrabbed by the back of his collar and dragged into the classroom
”Hey, what the fuck!?”
”I'ed So how is it, does it suit me?”
Rangetsu made a pose in the middle of the classroom
It looked quite legit But her attire was greatly problematic
She earing a plain black tracksuit without any decoration
Norht noith the sports festival co ready so other subject teachers illing to wear this sort of tracksuit
”Eh, what's the situation?”
”An undercover investigation Well, it's not that exaggerated, I' clothes to blend in so that I can move more freely in school, you see? Nominally, I'm an instructor hired from outside for the sports festival period The school is inforh I can't be stationed at school all the time, up until the sports festival this weekend, I've already planned to lurk here already, you know?”
”Yeah, good job”
”What's with that unood-looking teacher like me?”
Rangetsu flaunted her slender body and leaned over but Hisui was unmoved
”No Um, this look suits you very well”
”Oh my, aren't you honest today?”
”Although I find women who are suited to tracksuits are a bit unusual”
”Putting aside an athlete's airs, you are completely unattractive as a woman”
Eruru entered the classroom and expressed her vieith displeasure
Rangetsu scowled viciously, revealing her long canines but Eruru was unfazed In a contest of fangs, she had her own set anyway
”Speaking of which, Kujou-kun I smell blood on your neck? What's the matter?”
Rangetsu looked at the bandaid on Hisui's neck and asked acutely
As expected of a detective froations Section Hisui's current condition could not escape her sense of s's
”Actually”
Eruru sighed and explained things roughly to her
”I see, I get the situation now But it's not co to the Supernatural Investigations Section, you know?”
”I know”
This was all Eruru acting on her own and could not be considered a wise plan
Hisui and Rushella were supposed to be quarantined instead
”That said, we currently lack uards Whatever, Kujou-kun, if you have someone to supervise you, I allow you freedom of movement Also, about that vampire called Rushella”
”No problem Don't mind her”
As the victim, Hisui seemed unconcerned
Rangetsu's former self would definitely not have compromised so easily but unbelievably, she now accepted
”Is that so? Actually, the situation remains the same, just that your body has produced sye of surveillance However, if anything happens, you will take full responsibility, is that clear?”
Rangetsu was staring at Eruru in a terrifying
The tere originally enele between factions but were sent to the sa the for too much
Now that she was lending Eruru a favor and could use this as leverage to et kicked out if the situation turned south, Rangetsu stood to gain no s developed
”No problem I have already resolved myself to take the responsibility But even so, I did not really expect you to agree so easily”
Rangetsu went h her face on her hands
”Then what? What are your plans next?”
”Please listen to these girls first”
Eruru's sharp hearing had already picked up on the footsteps approaching the classroom
Although it was one person's steps, two individuals entered
Kirika and Touko
”Eh, you are Oogaht?”
”Oh, it's the errand girl”
”Who is the errand girl!?”
Rangetsu protested against Touko's coain
”They are the collaborators you mentioned?”
”Yes Please have a seat, you two Let us confirm the many plans we have ahead of us”
Kirika nodded and sat dohile Touko hovered in the surroundings as usual
Ignoring Touko, Eruru started the Supernatural Investigations Club + Supernatural Investigations Section joint
”Currently, the sports festival is being held as scheduled So Have there been anyletters?”
Eruru asked Kirika The vice-president shook her head
”None received Due to the earlier tent incident, the teachers and the students in sports clubs have been uard None of the facilities and equipe so far”
”Oh, I was also wandering around school to help watch, you know?”
”As for sightings of Touko-san, witnesses have increased greatly, how troubling”
Kirika grumbled bitterly
The ghost with great initiative really wasn't saving any effort
”However, Touko-san's presence really is a great help About the doppelganger ible body case is quite hard to capture However, if Touko-san does it, she should be able to sense the doppelganger After all, doppelgangers are considered pseudo spiritual entities, they should be able to interfere with each other”
”Conversely, the other side will be on guard against Touko-san To this date, he has not come to school, probably because Touko-san is present?”
Hisui spoke slowly
Although he had lost hisinto a vae on supernatural entities reed
Rangetsu showed an i
”You're quite sharp Then what do you plan on doing?”
”Nothing much But since it's hard for him to interfere with the school before the sports festival, he'll probably ht Say, the doppelganger of the class rep who sits next to me, any news on that?”
”The only ones who saw her directly were you and Uno-san Currently, your ?”
”Nothing But I know class rep is a good person and very kind to me”
Hisui answered Eruru's question while plunged into deep thought
Seeing hiht, Eruru turned the topic to the day of the sports festival
”Right noe ilance and the problem is the actual day of the sports festival Currently, there is Oogami-san's help and Touko-san can also contribute Also We will handle things as the situation changes, I suppose The biggest probleers Although they are certain to be nearby, if the state of separation persists, they will all disappear eventually I a excessively, am I?”
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Rangetsu nodded solemnly
”Indeed, finding the doppelgangers is top priority But how should it be done?”
”Oh, grandma told me about this Since they are sure to be nearby, a barrier can be erected to slowly decrease their area of movement But this type of barrier has its limits, so I am not too sure how small an area they can be forced into”
Kirika supported her face while frowning and looking at Hisui orry The vaer were causing Hisui great suffering
”Just try it, make the area as small as possible What would be best would be this Force them into the school”
Hisui responded to Kirika and hoped she could give a specific plan
