Chapter 75
Shia, Alice, Aika.
The three candidates for Eugene’s unrequited love, revealed through his interview.
Alice’s reaction to the interview was...
“......?”
‘Who is that...? It’s not me.’
She was firmly in denial that it could be her.
It made sense. If Eugene had liked her,
he would have done something in the infirmary.
He would have used hypnosis and done all sorts of things that he often did with his “Eyes.”
However, what she found after waking up from hypnosis were boxes of painkillers for menstrual cramps.
Later, she learned that while she was sleeping soundly, Eugene was working out in the gym.
It was not the behavior of a man in love with her.
‘Even at the gate, he didn’t get aroused at all....’
There was one more thing.
During the A-class gate transfer, when Eugene had PTSD and hugged Alice tightly,
she felt Eugene’s whole body with her own.
Truly, with her whole body. Every nook and cranny. Even his groin.
Despite that, his sword didn’t even flinch.
If he loved her, it should have stood up.
———Just like last week when I saw it on video call.
‘He doesn’t have a dysfunction. I saw it during the video call....’
On the first day living with Aika, she insisted on keeping the video call on all night.
Through it, she confirmed with her own eyes,
Eugene’s sword standing up at dawn. A natural male physiological phenomenon.
Even though she didn’t look directly at it, and was rather startled and hung up immediately, regretting later not capturing it. Nonetheless,
thanks to that, Alice knew clearly that Eugene wasn’t impotent.
However, when he hugged her tightly, his sword didn’t even flinch.
Realizing the meaning of that belatedly, her self-esteem couldn’t help but drop.
‘Eugene doesn’t find me attractive, does he? In the “Eyes” way... I’m not arousing, unlike Ninomiya.’
Suddenly, she found herself envying Aika anew.
Her chest was bigger, she had more money, and she was stronger.
She was also living with Eugene...
She knew exactly that Eugene’s sword was roughly 8 inches.
The woman who made Eugene’s sword stand up. Ninomiya Aika.
Feeling somehow depressed, her eyes drooped.
“Haa....”
‘Well, Shia can’t be it. It must be Ninomiya. Living together, they must have grown feelings. I’m just a non-arousing comrade to Eugene.’
-Tap tap.
Her fingers slid across the phone.
Entering OutStar, she pressed Eugene’s account, which followed her back, to open the DM window.
She intended to send a private message.
What should I say?
Should I say, “You like Ninomiya, right? I know everything.”
It seems like something I would do, but I don’t want to.
Should I ask if it’s me?
That’s worse. It feels like I’m poking around with hope.
Should I advise him that it’s too early for romance?
In England, even middle schoolers do everything. Would he believe me if I said that?
Countless letters were written and erased repeatedly.
Just like her complex emotions that couldn’t be expressed in words.
Only the depression deepened.
‘Why would I say this to Eugene? I’m not arousing....’
-Ding!
[Mom – Alice, are you dating Eugene?]
“......?”
———Amidst this, a DM arrived.
Are you dating Eugene?
It was a message from her mother.
“Haa....”
-Tap tap.
[Eugene likes Miss Ninomiya. Not me.]
[Mom – Why are you so sure? Did Eugene say that himself?]
[No. Actually, Eugene and I aren’t that close.]
[Mom – But you like Eugene, don’t you.]
“What?”
Alice’s eyes widened.
She liked Eugene.
The shock of hearing such words.
[What do you mean? Eugene and I are just friends.]
[Mom – Alice. There’s no such thing as just friends between a man and a woman.]
[We’re really just friends. Eugene doesn’t see me as a woman.]
[Mom – That can’t be. Unless he’s impotent.]
[You don’t know anything about Eugene.]
[Mom – Maybe not. But think about it. There must have been moments when he showed interest in you.]
A piece of advice followed.
Alice briefly reflected on the past.
[Looking forward to working with you, Alice.]
Eugene, who saved her when she was being criticized for her fashion on the first day.
When she was embarrassed by the first “Eyes” she saw, he thought she was sick and carried her to the infirmary.
When she begged him to shoot a commercial, he eventually agreed.
When they suddenly fell into a gate, he hugged her first without a second thought.
Trying to protect her before anyone else.
‘Come to think of it, he got really shy whenever our bodies touched... Really. What’s the big deal about a chest.’
She smiled wryly.
‘I was too focused on the “Eyes” to notice...
What’s this, Eugene.
You’re acting like someone who likes me.’
[Mom – He may not like you the most among the three, but he definitely doesn’t see you as just a friend.]
[Maybe. But that doesn’t mean I like Eugene. He’s just a friend.]
[Mom – Lies. You got confessed to every day in high school and never dated once, yet now you talk about nothing but Eugene on OutStar all day. If this isn’t love, what is.]
What’s this? Trying to show her body to Eugene under the guise of a coincidence?
Good heavens. This was just what she had witnessed by chance.
How much had she been up to until now?
Disgusting. Shameless. Filthy. Perverted.
Even the ‘Eyes’ didn’t have such perverts.
“You pervert!!! What are you doing to Eugene!!!”
“...Huh? My disciple is at the amusement park with his goddaughter right now.”
“Changing clothes in the living room with the door unlocked. And in revealing lingerie!! You planned to accidentally show it to Eugene!!”
“......!!!!?”
Aika was shocked.
Caught up in her excitement, she had completely forgotten what she looked like at that moment.
“Th-this isn’t what it looks like. You see...”
“Are you trying to seduce him because you’re insecure about your age!? By wearing such revealing clothes!!?”
“I didn’t have such intentions....”
“I’ll burn all these clothes!! Incinerate them all!!”
-Whirr.
But Alice’s rampage didn’t wait for an explanation.
To her, this was the scene of her dear friend being harassed by a 30-something woman.
The flames she shot out consumed the pile of clothes...
-Pok.
“...What are you doing?”
But they didn’t burn.
Because Aika had blocked them with her body.
Though the babydoll she was wearing was slightly singed,
a few pats with her hands put out the fire, showcasing the dignity of the top-ranked S-class.
Alice, undeterred, charged at her.
“You pervert!! You’ve been eyeing Eugene with such thoughts!? I trusted you as his master!!”
“.......”
“No matter how desperate you are to get married, seducing Eugene this way....”
“Stop spouting nonsense!!”
-Boom!!
But Aika merely let out a roar.
Alice, who had been pulling her hair, was flung away by the sonic attack. The clothes, unfortunately, were torn in the process.
“Huh!?”
“Really. How rude. Suddenly spouting nonsense....”
“You did lewd things to Eugene!!”
“......!!!!?”
Even with torn clothes and disheveled hair, and sitting down hard,
Alice’s determination didn’t falter.
The ‘Eyes’ prodigy bombarded with facts.
“You probably kept flirting while touching Eugene’s body, right? And even made him touch your body!!”
“T-that’s....”
“Wearing sexy clothes on purpose, making things awkward. You must have even insisted on washing him to get close. No, you probably stripped him to look at his thing!!”
“.......”
If others heard it, they’d probably say, ‘Just stop.’
Aika couldn’t reply, only averting her eyes.
It pricked her conscience a lot.
‘W-well, it just happened....’
Did she touch Eugene?
She washed him thoroughly, every nook and cranny. Even patted his butt at the gate.
Did she make him touch her forcefully?
Just yesterday, she forced her reluctant disciple to smack her butt several times.
Purposely wearing revealing clothes? That’s really slander...
Well. While washing him, she did wrap herself in just a bathrobe to see if her body would arouse him.
‘Besides, unintentionally, I’ve seen him several times with X-ray vision....’
“.......”
“See!! You pervert, lecher!!! As expected of a Japanese woman!!!”
Alice’s twisted perception exploded.
As expected from the homeland of the ‘Eyes’. Astonishingly shady.
My eyes on the first day weren’t wrong!
“Get out of Eugene’s dorm immediately, you lustful pig!!”
“P-pig...!?”
With her morale up, she fired her catchphrase.
Aika’s mind went blank.
She had lived receiving nothing but praise as a kendo and awakener genius since childhood. Now suddenly, a pig?
The unexpected insult made her more bewildered than angry...
-Creak.
“Master~ Sorry I’m la—.”
“Why are you only coming now!!”
“......!!!!!”
The worst timing, Eugene arrived.
Alice quickly pushed him into the living room.
Look at this pig. This is truly unacceptable.
The gift in Eugene’s hand...
fell limply to the floor at the sight of his master.
The cherry blossom-scented bath salts for Aika scattered.
“...Master?”
“D-d-d-disciple. This isn’t what it looks like....”
What kind of situation is this, Master?
I’m not a perverted pig, disciple.
Unable to say it aloud, their unspoken thoughts exchanged chaotically through their eyes.
“It’s not what it looks like!! This perverted pig only has dirty thoughts about Eugene!!”
“Alice!? What are you saying to my master? She wouldn’t....”
“Eugene, you’re being deceived!! By this bitch!!”
Alice stood firmly between them.
“As a comrade of the ‘Eyes,’ I can’t stand this!! Trial, it’s a trial!!”
“What?”
“I’m going to accuse this person of sexual harassment, so defend if you can!!”
She declared sternly.
“The loser will face the death penalty!!!”
