203 Thank you from Yukino

'Nothing, nothing, it completely disappeared!'

'The ghost behind Hachiman senpai also disappeared even though it was clinging to the back of his body before!'

If Hachiman knew the ghost in question wasn't standing behind him, but rather clinging to his back. I wonder how the boy would have reacted. As the protagonist, would he scream like a girl?

'And the ghosts that were wandering around inside the club room due to being attracted by Yuigahama senpai and Yukino senpai's aura also disappeared!'

'No, rather it might still be there, it's just that Eiji senpai managed to make me unable to see them anymore!'

'I'm back to normal!'

Miko was so happy, her eyes were slightly wet, moved to tears. After all it had been more than two months since she started to be able to see things that didn't exist in this world, ghosts. Since then, wherever she went, even while sleeping in her own home, there was no day without ghosts disturbing her.

She has to always pretend not to see them even though they often suddenly stand in front of her, or follow her from behind while saying things like "Hey you see me, right?", "Looking at me, can you see me?", "You can see me! Hehehe!" and many other horrible words that come out of the creatures' mouths.

If it wasn't for her pretty good acting skills to always pretend to be unaware of their existence, Miko remembered the last time a ghost actually realized she could see it, it attacked her in an even more terrifying form. She had never been physically harmed by those creatures, but still, she was scared and naturally worried that she would be killed. Although in the end, none of the ghosts could hurt her because their bodies would always pass through her like a hologram.

Miko looked at the boy with white hair and red eyes in front of her, she had certainly heard his inner voice before. She blushed, but Eiji senpai had helped her, she was very grateful to him and did not know how to repay him.

But after hearing his inner voice, she had an idea, smiled and said. "Thank you Eiji senpai! I can now no longer see those creatures."

"Really? That's good." Eiji nodded, the other service club members were also happy that Miko's problem was solved.

Only Yukino frowned at the sight of the girl making a suspicious movement like standing on tiptoe in front of Eiji and kissing the boy's cheek in front of everyone!

This girl, she really kissed Eiji because she heard his inner voice!

Eiji rubbed the warm and soft sensation on his cheek, he was happy, but it would be great if it was on the lips.

Miko's face turned red, and she said. "I don't know how to repay Eiji senpai for helping me. I wonder if it's enough?"

[This girl, after I made her stop seeing ghosts, Miko kissed me and asked if it was enough? Girl, if you ask that to a guy in front of many people. There's no way I'd say it wasn't enough even if I wanted more, right? I can see Yukino glaring at the cold Miko for kissing me in front of her eyes, it's even more impossible to ask for more.]

[What a pity... By the way, it's cute to see Yukino jealous.]

[Sona: I don't know why I'm not surprised that my fiancé immediately made a heroine he just met kiss him.]

[Rias: That girl named Miko must have heard Eiji's inner voice, otherwise I doubt she would have kissed him in front of other people.]

[Nana: Isn't that too fast? That girl is too easy!]

[Akeno: Nana-chan~ If you had the same problem as Miko-chan and suddenly a handsome man could help you. Wouldn't you be moved? After all, even knowing that, I'm sure many women out there would more or less do the same.]

[Mai: I don't want to admit it, but I also fell because Eiji cured me of a syndrome that would otherwise have made me invisible and forgotten by everyone forever.]

[Kuroka: In short, helping a damsel in distress is very effective in winning a damsel's heart, nyaa~]

[Nana:....]

Nana was silent, she thought about it and tried to imagine it. But if that handsome man was Eiji, she snorted. She understood, but why aren't any of you worried about that man increasing his number of women? Even his eldest sister, she actually sent +1 and was happy to have more sisters!

To answer Miko's question, Eiji simply said satisfied. Miko who heard this took out her cell phone and wanted to exchange contacts with him. After that, probably because she couldn't stand the stares of everyone anymore. Embarrassed, she immediately thanked everyone and returned to her class.

The lunch break had also ended, everyone in the club naturally had to return to their respective classes. But before Eiji returned to his class, it happened that the road to his and Yukino's class was one way.

Before they separated, he pretended to cough and said. "Yukino, have you ever seen a ghost?"

"Why are you suddenly asking this? If I could, I would definitely do something to help Yotsuya-san." Yukino seemed to be in a bad mood, either because she was jealous that Miko kissed him or felt she was useless because she couldn't help anything before.

Eiji nodded and agreed with the girl. "Right, if you can, I definitely don't need to intervene. But it's also actually good, so I can get a kiss and contact from a cute junior like Miko."

"...."

"Miko's lips are so soft and warm."

"...."

"She also smells very nice. I wonder if she... Wait, Yukino. What do you want to do with your cell phone?"

Yukino suddenly took out the cell phone in her pocket and seemed to be about to call someone, but she stopped and looked at him coldly.

"I'm going to call the police to report a pervert next to me."

"You must be joking, right?"

"What do you think?"

Eiji shook his head, and looked at Yukino as if she was stupid. Yukino's lips twitched, she was so upset! Before she was obviously joking and just wanted to scare Eiji, but now she felt like actually reporting the boy to the police! Even if that boy was strong, would he still break the law?

"Yukino, you're naive. I mean what exactly do you want to report to the police? I was just talking about the cute junior who just kissed me willingly and saying how I felt afterwards."

"It's not an illegal act,

"...." Yukino knew what Eiji said was true, it was just that she was annoyed. While walking, she reached out her hand to the side to pinch the boy's waist.

Sometimes a woman just wants to be entertained, and she is no exception, but this boy provoked her by mentioning how it feels to be kissed by another woman.

[Should I pretend to be in pain and scream? Yukino's pinch, although it was enough to make the protagonist Hachiman scream, to me it didn't even tickle.]

[Even so... I know, at this moment, a man has to show a bit of weakness in order for a woman's heart to become better.]

"Ah! Ah! It hurts, Yukino! It hurts!"

"...."

If Yukino didn't hear his inner voice, she would have been fooled by Eiji's expression which was very convincing that he was in pain from having his waist pinched.

She immediately removed her hand from the boy's waist and sighed. This is so unfair, right? Eiji looked perfect, not having any weaknesses. It was hard for a girl like her if she at least wanted to punish that boy for making her upset.

It's actually not just annoyance, but there's also jealousy.

Yukino didn't want to admit that she was jealous of the scene she saw earlier. When did this start? Well it must be since Eiji saved her life from the wild demon attack that night. After returning home, she immediately threw herself onto her bed with a slightly red face because her heart was beating faster than usual.

The figure of the handsome and dashing Eiji with the silver sword that eradicated all the wild demons was hard to get rid of from her head. Yukino complained that there was no way she could fall in love just because of that, but what she thought and felt were so contrasting that she didn't know what to do.

Even now, she could only pretend to be cold as usual so that Eiji would not notice anything. If the boy noticed, she was not ready because it felt very embarrassing, especially when they first met she was hostile to him and cold towards him.

"Yukino, next time, instead of pinching me, you should kiss me."

"Eiji, is it just me or are you becoming more shameless?"

"Shameless? I'm just a man who's honest with what I think."

Yes, you're so honest, even the inner voice does it too.

Yukino complained in her heart, she stretched her shoulders a little because somehow it felt a bit sore. She didn't bother replying to what Eiji said because soon they would be separated at the turn of the corridor.

Eiji certainly noticed this and hurriedly said. "Yukino, have you ever seen a ghost?"

"Why do you keep repeating the same question?" Yukino wondered what exactly Eiji wanted to do? "I already answered that, I've never seen a ghost. What exactly do you want to say?"

"Yukino, you don't understand!"

"...."

With this way of communicating, how exactly could someone understand what he was saying? Yukino was confused.

"Believe it or not, you're now feeling sore in your shoulder, right? Your left shoulder to be precise and it started from the moment you left the club room."

"...Yes, my left shoulder does sore a bit. But what does this have to do with ghosts?"

Yukino stopped walking, she looked at Eiji who also stopped and looked at her flatly. If this boy said something silly, she was ready to walk fast and leave him alone.

Eiji blinked, in his eyes, actually ever since he separated the spiritual consciousness in Miko's body from the girl's own body. He had seen spiritual energy that could make one see the ghost clearly. With some calculations here and there and adjusting the configuration of his spiritual consciousness.

In his vision, he could now see the ghost!

And the reason why Yukino felt that her left shoulder was sore, was because there was a ghost sitting there.

"Before that. I wanted to ask if you've picked up a cat on the street recently and it died? Or maybe you accidentally saw a dead cat on the street and did something like burying it?"

"How do you know? Actually it was the last one and it happened yesterday." The surprised Yukino naturally told the truth.

Yesterday when she was walking home from school, she saw a cat that was run over by a car on the road. As a woman who secretly liked cats, she certainly couldn't bear to just ignore the cat's corpse. So even though it was troublesome, she tried to bury the cat's corpse behind the park which happened to be close to that location.

Eiji nodded again, Yukino is a good girl, worthy of being a heroine who has a hobby to touch the cat's paw pads. The quality of her heart is good even though on the surface she likes to pretend to be cold.

"Ever since I helped Miko with her problem. I also started to see ghosts. Now, I can see that on your left shoulder is a cat-shaped ghost. It's sitting on your left shoulder and seems to want to follow you to class."

"...." Yukino was a little incredulous, but since it was Eiji, she believed what the boy said might actually be real. Otherwise, how did Eiji know she was involved with a cat not long ago? "Can you chase it away? But don't kill it!"

Eiji looked at the girl in front of him with a funny look. "That cat is dead, how can she die again? Well, although I might be able to destroy its spirit easily."

"No, don't do such a cruel thing to a cat!" Yukino shouted with a little fear, there was no way she would let Eiji do such a thing to a cat. Even when the cat is dead.

"Of course not, I know Yukino really likes cats." Eiji extended his hand towards the girl's left shoulder and made a gesture as if pinching and picking up something in the air. "Done, I didn't do anything cruel, I just teleported her to a certain cat cafe in this town."

Yukino breathed a sigh of relief, she felt that her left shoulder was no longer sore now, but she blushed slightly and said. "Who likes cats? F-Forget it. By the way why of all places did you move it to a cat cafe?"

"Because there are many cats." Eiji said as if saying something obvious. He naturally ignored what the girl said about who liked cats because he knew that person was Yukino herself.

The girl was just dishonest and embarrassed to admit her fondness for furry animals like cats.

To be honest, he didn't understand what was embarrassing about that. But well, that was the setting the author made in the original work. So it was probably natural? Whatever.

"Oh..." Yukino nodded slightly, she understood and said. "Thank you, Eiji."

"That's all?"

"Is there anything else?" Yukino looked at him flatly.

"Just kidding, you're welcome." Eiji waved his hand, but did not forget to complain in his heart.

[Yukino is so stingy. With this, it's already twice. Oh no, four times I helped her in this life. Yet I only received thanks from her three times and that's it?!]

[Sure enough, without the original protagonist's halo, even a handsome man with maximum charm like me still finds it hard to get a proper thank you from a heroine.]

[How sad! I'm sure if it was the protagonist Hachiman, Yukino would've fallen head over heels to hastily introduce him to her parents and be ready to get married after graduating school.]

The heroines were silent. Each of them was busy with something and too lazy to send a text in the group chat.

Yet some were a little amazed that this girl named Yukino still hadn't fallen like the other heroine, even after receiving Eiji's help so many times.

"...."

Yukino was also complaining in her heart. Who would fall and marry Hachiman immediately after graduating school just because he was the protagonist? Eiji's imagination was very rich. She also didn't expect Eiji to count how many times he helped her and thank him.

On the surface it was fine, but inside it was very dissatisfied that she only said thank you after he helped her.

Yukino glanced at the deserted corridor as the other students must have entered their respective classes. She bit her lip, a little hesitant, but just as Eiji was about to continue walking, she pulled the boy's tie towards her and stood on tiptoe.

Eiji felt that if this was an anime, then this scene would have special effects such as the background glowing with pink or yellow and there were also some beautiful flowers or bubbles with a slow motion effect.

Feeling Yukino's soft and warm lips imprinted on his lips, the girl herself was mesmerized by the taste of kissing for the first time. So she was stunned for a moment for half a minute before her face turned red, as red as Rias' hair and ran towards her class without saying anything.

"...." Eiji who was left alone in the corridor was not sad, he could not help but raise the corners of his mouth and cover his mouth with his hand so that others would not see his silly smile.

¶{It's a scene that only comes out in romantic comedy anime with a school background. So host, how does it feel to conquer two heroine in one day?}

"It feels really good. I'm looking forward to the future."

¶{So honest in this. Should I hand out the rewards now before you go to class?}

"This is also calculated? Oh right, although this is not the plot of the original work, my actions changed the girls' plot."

¶{You already know, don't ask. So?}

"Do it later. Not now, I still have to attend class as a good student."

Miss System: "...."

Good student, late for class for an hour?

Just as the host expected. Shameless as always.

On the other side.

A boss and his bodyguard were arguing about something.

"Odin-sama, I'm saying this for your own good, don't go looking for Eiji at his house even if you know his address!"
