Chapter 177 – Night Shenanigans

The dinner that was cooked by the idiot couple ended up wowing all of the people who ate it, which was to no one's surprise.

Akari was already a famous cook known throughout the school for her otherworldly bento boxes, and Takei was a person that could follow directions perfectly.

With them as a duo, there would most likely be no dish that they couldn't make together.

After dinner was eaten, all of the second-year students split off into their respective gender-based washrooms.

Nothing special happened during the bathing times since the teachers were out on the prowl for any peeping toms.

However, that didn't mean nothing would happen after everyone returned to their cabins to go to bed.

"Hey Takei, let's go peek on the girls!" Eiji pulled on Takei's shirt pleadingly.

"Why would I do that?" Takei asked, less than amused.

"Isn't it every boy's dream to go peek on girls during the middle of the night on a camping trip?"

"It definitely isn't my dream..."

"Wussy."

Takei looked over to Ryuto for help, but the boy looked back at him with sparkles in his eyes.

"Let's go do it, I think it'll be a fun adventure!"

"You too?" Takei sighed.

Takei didn't understand why they wanted to go out and peek on the girls, it wasn't anything special and would be quite troublesome if they got caught.

"You don't know the dreams of us normal men!"

"With the goddess as a girlfriend, there's no way you could understand us!"

"Blow up normie!"

The other boys in the cabin began shouting at Takei in pure anger and frustration due to his normie status that he had obtained through perfectly normal means.

Since everyone was against him at this point, there was no longer a choice for Takei to pick.

He would undoubtedly get carried over to the girls' cabin with or without his consent.

"Alright alright, I yield. Let's go and try our best not to get caught," Takei threw his hands up in surrender.

""Yahoo!""

The whole cabin erupted in joy after their final obstacle was removed from their path.

They all quickly quieted down and left the cabin in a single-file formation in order to make sure that no one would be caught.

Takei wore all-black jeans and a hoodie to make sure that he would blend in the shadows.

I don't think Akari will mind me peeking in on her, but the other girls will be a different story. Wait, I don't want any other guys peeking at Akari!

Before Takei could fully understand his blunder, all of the boys were quietly crouching around the girls' cabin to try and get some intel before making a move.

"Psst, Takei. Come over here and get on my shoulders," Ryuto motioned for him to come over.

"What's up?"

"There's a window above me that I can't quite see through, but I bet you would be able to if you got on my shoulders," Ryuto explained.

"..."

Takei wasn't sure if he wanted to be the first one to peek on the girls due to his good sense of morals, but Ryuto wasn't going to let it slide today.

"If you don't go, then some other guy will go instead of you."

"Okay, I'll go."

Takei didn't want anyone else to look at his girlfriend, so he decided to be the first one to go.

Akari, I'm sorry in advance. This is for the greater good.

As he was about to climb on top of Ryuto's shoulders, another boy in the group yelled at the top of his lungs. "Oh crap! The teachers are coming! It's every man for himself!"

Once all the other boys heard his warning cry, they bolted off as if their lives depended on it.

This was no different for Takei who had already been sprinting at full speed when the boy first yelled an obscenity.

He really didn't want to be caught by the teachers since it would be a pain to explain, so getting back to the cabin at all costs was his plan.

Takei didn't even see where Eiji and Ryuto went, but he hoped in his heart that they were safe.

Even though they were the ones that dragged him into this situation in the first place.

Right before he was about to turn the corner where the boys' cabin was located, Takei stopped dead in his tracks. "Oh man, I cannot catch a break tonight!"

There were two teachers standing outside the cabin with their arms folded and ready to catch some peeping toms.

"I am totally so busted," Takei sighed in resignation.

Luckily for him, there was no need to give up yet since there was a light at the end of the tunnel.

"Oi, Takei! Psst! Come over here dude!"

He saw Eiji waving at him through the back window of the cabin, which reignited his heart that had stopped due to such dire events.

"My man!" Takei happily took the chance and jumped through the open window.

Now that he was safe and sound in the cabin, Takei let out a sigh of relief. "Haaah... That really wasn't good for my nerves..."

He could see Ryuto and a few other guys that had already made it back to the cabin in the corner of his eye. "You guys got here quick, huh?"

"We found a shortcut," Eiji shrugged. "You ended up taking the long way."

"Yeah man, you could've shaved off a minute or two if you cut through the trees like us," Ryuto said.

"Ah... I didn't know."

Well, that doesn't matter now. I made it back to the cabin safe and sound. I didn't even get caught! Looks like my luck is turning around!

As Takei began to think optimistically, his phone buzzed from his back pocket.

He opened the text and saw his very own soul exit his body.

Akari Akazawa: If you wanted a peek, you could've just asked?

It seemed that the goddess was still a couple steps ahead of him.
