You Will Regret This Ichinose! [167]

Uesugi Gen, now thoroughly rinsed and refreshed, slipped smoothly back into bed and planted a firm kiss on that soft, delicate face.

“That should do it, right?”

Sakayanagi Arisu didn’t reply. Instead, she reached out, clutching his shirt, and buried herself in his embrace, taking in his scent as she mumbled:

“Acceptable, my genius-kun.”

“Then hurry up and sleep—it’s already late.”

As he spoke, Uesugi Gen pulled the covers over the two of them.

Click—

Darkness enveloped the room.

Sakayanagi Arisu’s body was incredibly petite—so small that Uesugi Gen could hold her entirely in his arms like a pillow. And since she lacked physical training, her whole body was soft to the touch, making it impossible for him to let go.

In the darkness, her melodic voice drifted through the silence.

“Genius-kun, tell me—if I continue targeting Ichinose Honami, what will you do?”

“Why are you always so fixated on Honami? You two didn’t even know each other before.”

Uesugi Gen sighed, already feeling a headache coming on.

“Because I’m jealous. Jealous of how much you dote on her. A war between women is a battle to the death… Or do you plan to step in and take sides?”

There was a distinct eagerness in Sakayanagi Arisu’s voice.

“Yes, I do. I’ll step in and tame this little devil completely.”

Uesugi Gen tightened his hold on her, speaking with feigned menace.

“That works perfectly for me. Want to make it a competition? Let’s see if you subdue me first, or if I make Ichinose Honami drop out first.”

“…Ahem.”

Uesugi Gen let out a small cough, his tone suddenly unnatural. “Arisu… what if… it’s not just the two of you?”

“……”

A long silence filled the room.

“…Heh.”

Sakayanagi Arisu let out a laugh—one laced with an ambiguous meaning.

“It’s been about half a year since the school year started, and in that time, you’ve managed to charm that many girls? What are you, some kind of playboy scumbag?”

“……”

Uesugi Gen had no words to defend himself.

“Let’s assume there are two others besides Ichinose Honami. That makes five in total—including me and Masumi. Even if I were at my best, I can only force one person out per special exam. There have only been four exams since the start of the year… So, Scumbag-kun, you really are something else. My expulsion rate can’t even keep up with your rate of picking up girls. I’ve lost before this competition even began.”

Sakayanagi Arisu no longer wore that confident, victorious smile. Right now, she only wanted to strangle the man in front of her.

“Well, either way, you belong to me now. It’s too late to go back on it.”

Embodying the shameless spirit of I know I was wrong, but I’d do it again, Uesugi Gen opted for pure stubbornness.

“No matter—if I can’t expel them, I’ll just steal you away instead. The result will be the same, and it might even be more interesting. That way, I won’t be bored for the next three years.”

“Oh, right. You still haven’t answered my question—what will you do if I continue targeting Ichinose Honami?”

There was a teasing lilt to her voice.

Uesugi Gen’s expression shifted. As if realizing something, he suddenly pulled Sakayanagi Arisu up from his embrace, locking eyes with her deep violet irises.

“…You’re not thinking of making a move on my 30 million, are you?”

“That’s right.”

Sakayanagi Arisu reached out, stroking Uesugi Gen’s cheek, a smile curling her lips.

“I want the whole school to see just how incredible my genius-kun really is.”

Uesugi Gen pointed a trembling finger at her, his voice quivering.

“You… Y-You’re truly a wicked woman. That’s my hard-earned savings! My secret stash! Do you have any idea how many loved ones, close friends, and sworn brothers I had to betray to get that 30 million!?”

“Is that a problem?”

Sakayanagi Arisu’s porcelain-like fingers slid down, wrapping gently around his neck as she whispered with a sly smile.

“Recently, Class C’s Ryuuen-kun has been acting strangely, as if he got his head knocked loose. He’s even been sending people to harass my classmates. Does a certain genius-kun happen to know anything about this?”

Uesugi Gen immediately refuted, righteous and unwavering, “You can’t generalize things like that! That’s an unfair accusation.”

“No, it’s simply class competition. Or… are you expecting me to surrender just because I like you?”

Sakayanagi Arisu countered swiftly, then added with an even sweeter tone,

“Of course, if that’s what you want, I’d be happy to comply. I’ll do anything you ask of me. After all… I like you that much.”

Uesugi Gen: “……”

Holy shit! I can’t argue with this woman!

“Well then, since my dear genius-kun has no objections, I’ll proceed with the plan as scheduled.”

Seeing that Uesugi Gen remained silent, Sakayanagi Arisu pressed her advantage, not letting up in the slightest.

“Alright, everything that needed to be said has been said. Let’s sleep.”

She leaned in, leaving a light kiss on Uesugi Gen’s lips before settling herself snugly in his embrace, her eyes drifting closed in quiet satisfaction.

If Honami’s reaction was any indication… what would the former Class B students think if they found out they could have graduated ages ago with 30 million points?

Cold sweat instantly broke out on Uesugi Gen’s forehead.

Holy shit, is my Class B about to explode?

Stay calm, Uesugi Gen. First things first—find a time machine!

…Wait, no!

Looking at the girl nestled peacefully in his arms, Uesugi Gen leaned down and planted a firm kiss on her lips.

“You little devil!”

Sakayanagi Arisu’s serene sleeping face curled into a faint, beautiful smile.

Lately, Nagumo Miyabi had found himself in a precarious situation—one filled with mounting troubles.

One misfortune after another came crashing down on him.

First, the student council presidency, which had once seemed well within his grasp, was suddenly slipping further and further away.

Then, at what should have been his moment of glory during the sports festival, he had fallen flat on his face in front of the entire school, making a complete fool of himself.

To make matters worse, the second-year students, whom he had nearly unified under his control, had started to stir restlessly upon seeing his decline in power.

But none of that mattered.

What truly mattered was this—

Hori—

Nagumo’s fist slammed heavily into the wall, his expression twisted with frustration.

Horikita-senpai has been paying less and less attention to me lately.

Every day, instead of focusing on him, she was gathering intel on Uesugi Gen, as if she were guarding against something.

That’s supposed to be my privilege!

And all of this—

BAM!

Nagumo clenched his teeth and struck the wall again.

—is because of that bastard Uesugi Gen who came out of nowhere!

If not for him, Nagumo would never have ended up in this pathetic state.

As long as he could get rid of Uesugi Gen, things would return to the way they were meant to be.

But he had to admit… that guy wasn’t normal.

His physical abilities were superior.
His intellect was formidable.
His personal points far surpassed Nagumo’s own.

And worst of all, the bastard hardly ever left his room, making it impossible to find an opportunity to strike.

BAM!

Nagumo Miyabi drove his fist into the wall once more.

Anything will do—just let me get my hands on something I can use against him. If I can shatter his reputation, I’ll prove to both the school and Horikita-senpai that I’m better than him!

Just then—

Ring, ring—

His phone buzzed.

Nagumo glanced at the caller ID.

A nobody from Class 2-C.

Even so, he picked up, his tone immediately shifting into one of practiced enthusiasm.

“Hello! Is there anything I can help you with?”

“Vice President, sir… I heard you’ve been looking into that first-year, Uesugi Gen. Well… I happen to know a little something.”

A fawning voice slithered through the receiver.
