[TSSIM] Chapter 493: Different Feeling

"Woah~ What a huge stump!" 

Rin's loud voice echoed from the yard, full of amazement. 

"Feels like two butts could sit on it!"

Everyone: "..."

Two butts could sit on it?

What kind of description was that?

"It's not that big! At most, one and a half butts!" 

Homura suddenly shouted, making everyone's lips twitch.

Meanwhile, Honoka and the others stood up upon hearing Rin's loud voice and wanted to take a look at the tree stump.

Just as they were about to move, Homura spoke up.

"Well, if it's a body type like Sagiri's, there might be more than just two butts..." Homura nodded solemnly. "As for Rin, two butts should be no problem."

Sagiri: "..."

Even though Homura's description was a bit odd, thanks to it, they could imagine the size of the tree stump now—the diameter was definitely over 60 centimeters, a pretty big tree.

As Honoka and the others walked toward the yard, Homura gave a small smile.

"By the way, I'm gonna record the song."

"Mm, Senpai! We'll wait for you." Nayuta nodded with a small smile.

===

Ten minutes later, Homura uploaded the song he had just recorded into the chat group, letting everyone download it on their own.

A little while later—

[Makishima Saori: Oh, Homura-shi uploaded something!]

[Sawamura Spencer Eriri: Why'd you upload it here?]

[Minamiya Homura: Just a whim.]

[Kousaka Kirino: BTW, what's this?]

[Kousaka Honoka: Hehe, Kirino-chan, this is the song Homura-kun sang today.]

[Gokou Ruri: Minamiya-senpai's song? I must listen to it!]

[Fujiwara Chika: It's a shame I missed the live version, but this recorded version should sound even better, right?]

[Makishima Saori: Forget about everything else for now! Let's listen to the song first!]

Two minutes later—

[Tainaka Ritsu: OHHH! I'm speechless! The first line already got me!]

[Aoyama Nanami: I don't know if it's just me, but this time feels different from the concert.]

[Minami Kotori: Um, I feel like it's more appealing to girls this time...]

[Kotobuki Tsumugi: Hmm...]

[Katou Megumi: What's up, Tsumugi?]

[Tainaka Ritsu: LOL, I know, earlier Mugi was blushing and muttering something, saying it felt like Homura-niisan was right there with her, flying together in the sky.]

[Tainaka Ritsu: Sorry! I gotta run! Mugi's after me!]

Reading the chat, Elf and the others couldn't stop laughing.

"Ritsu is as funny as always. I can totally imagine the scene." Elf remarked after reining in her laugh.

Homura, on the other hand, felt a bit surprised.

"Mugi is seriously amazing…" Homura remarked, smiling and nodding slightly.

"Eh? Why would Homura-kun say that?" Hanayo asked, looking confused.

"Actually, when I was singing earlier, I didn't just do it halfheartedly. Didn't you girls feel it was different from how I sang at the concert before?" Homura responded with a question.

"Mm..." Rin nodded, her face turning a little red. "It felt warm inside, and maybe a bit tingly, nyaa…"

"Yeah, you girls only noticed that change, but Mugi... she actually knew the scene I was imagining while I sang..." Homura said slowly.

As soon as the girls in the room heard this, they all paused in surprise.

"The scene you were imagining? You mean, while you were singing, you were actually imagining flying through the sky with Mugi?!" Eriri asked, her eyes wide and her tone surprised.

"Not just Mugi, but with all of you." Homura smiled and shook his head.

When he sang and imagined scenes, he mentally placed himself and the girls into those moments—it was as if he were the star of a music video in his head.

It was precisely because of that that the emotion in his singing was different when he sang at Otonokizaka. It was just that he hadn't expected Tsumugi to actually know what he imagined when singing the song this time.

"I see... yeah, Mugi's amazing, just like you said, but... maybe it's just a coincidence?" Eriri said, shaking her head slightly.

She couldn't say exactly what was going on with Tsumugi.

"Homura, can you describe the scene you were imagining?" Elf asked curiously. "I'll ask Tsumugi what scenes she had in mind."

Upon hearing this, the girls couldn't help but look at Elf.

Was this a test to see if it was just a coincidence?

"Wait a sec, I'll show you in a more direct way." Homura stood up and walked toward his room.

"A more direct way? Fufu... I guess he's going to draw it." Nozomi said while chuckling.

"I'm really curious about what kind of scene Homura-kun was imagining." Utaha said thoughtfully.

"I'm back."

Seeing Homura return, the girls' attention sharpened.

"Why are you carrying so many papers?" Nanami asked in wonder.

"What can I do? There are too many scenes to fit in one." Homura shrugged.

"So you need that many papers because of that?" Eriri rolled her eyes. "Only someone with your insane drawing speed could pull that off..."

"Thanks for the compliment." Homura responded with a smile, taking her words as a compliment.

Eriri: "…"

"When will I be as amazing as you...?" Eriri muttered softly.

Hearing this, Homura raised his eyebrows and then spoke with a smile.

"Believe me, it won't be long."

Utaha, meanwhile, covered her mouth, holding back laughter.

Eriri's remark about how 'insane' Homura's drawing speed was clearly a tease aimed at his thick skin, but the way he took it as a compliment only made him seem even more insane.

Homura thought for a moment before speaking again.

"Since it was Mugi's imagination, let's go with Mugi as the model."

Upon hearing this, the girls had no objections, so Homura started drawing.

Of course, it was just line art—if he went all the way and colored all the drawings, that would be a lot more work.

And so, with Homura's ridiculous drawing speed, the girls watched as one line drawing after another appeared from his hands.

It depicted Homura and Tsumugi standing in a sea of flowers, feeling the breeze, before Homura suddenly grabbed Tsumugi's hand and led her to a small creek to play in the water.

As they splashed water at each other, Tsumugi slipped, but just as she was about to fall into the water and soak herself, Homura steadied her.

At that moment, it was as if time had stopped.

Homura and Tsumugi just stared at each other, and the perspective pulled back to show a full view of the flower field and the creek, before zooming back in on them.

With Tsumugi gazing in surprise, Homura grabbed her hand and suddenly shot up into the sky!

Soon, a series of scenes appeared in the sky, where Homura showed off various romantic elements in full force!

By the time they landed, Homura had finished his drawings.

"Okay, let's match it with the song and feel the scene I imagine when I sing."

Homura organized his line art drawings, took out his phone, and played 'My World, Your World'.

Standing in front of the girls, Homura switched between the drawings in time with the song, making everyone feel like his drawings were alive—the movements between the drawings were so clear that they could imagine them on their own.

When the song ended, Homura finished showing them all the drawings.

Even though it was over, the girls stayed silent for a moment, probably still replaying the scenes from the drawings in their minds.
