Chapter 32: Thanks to you

TL: Mowaso

Thanks to you

As I stepped out into the hallway, I felt glances from the students as I passed by.

Not only that, but I could also hear them whispering to each other.

Look, that was the one who ranked first

Yeah, thats the guy who humiliated Mitsurugi earlier.

I heard he got first place just by looking at the textbook without studying at all.

Apparently, he planned the whole thing from the beginning, even provoking Mitsurugi into a public execution.

Wow hes a scary guy

Whats with all the rumors going around!

I studied hard, and Mitsurugis execution was mostly due to his own self destruction!

(However, when everyone in my class congratulates me and gives me kind looks, I realize that I really did beat the winners in life )

In my previous life, I always thought that I was a loser and no matter how hard I tried, I was going to lose But it turns out that wasnt the case.

(Hmm? Thats)

I came back to the bulletin board, but most of the students seemed to have finished looking at it, and there was no sign of Mitsurugi.

Then there was a girl with long black hair, staring at the results, covering her mouth with her hand and standing frozen in surprise.

Shijoin-san!

Ah! Nihama-kun!

When she heard my voice, she turned around and sounded very excited.

I just saw the results and I was really surprised and happy! Being first place in the school year is amazing! Its so amazing!

With both hands clasped, Shijoin-san uttered her words emotionally.

Her eyes sparkled and she looked really impressed.

Yes, thats right. The study group began with my request, but Nihama-kun has put in a lot of effort into it.

As if recalling the time when the two of us began our study group before the festival, Shijoin-san continued.

It wasnt just that you helped me. You collected materials, recreated the lessons with those awesome and perfect notes, and made up the questions for me

No, thats also for my own studies I told you several times that you dont have to worry about it, and I was treated fairly well by Shijoin-san with drinks and snacks.

The study session was an irreplaceable opportunity for me to spend time with Shijoin-san, and it was a blissful time for me.

However, I couldnt be completely honest about it, so as a result, Shijoin-san, who seemed to be concerned about the fact that I was giving up my time to teach her without asking her for anything in return, offered to provide refreshments during our study session.I decided to accept the offer, hoping it would make her feel better.

I know but the burden of Nihama-kun is not even comparable to the cost of a little snack.

With a small giggle, Shijoin-san continued.

So, with each study session, the light novel ban became less and less important to me. I was afraid that I would fail to meet the expectations of Nihama-kun, who had been so supportive of me That is what I was worried about.

Then, Shijoin-san stared at me.

The look in her eyes was filled with gratitude and had a radiant feeling in it.

I wanted to tell Nihama-kun with all my heart that it was thanks to you that I was able to make it this far.

After saying that, Shijoin-san revealed a proud smile.

It was a smile that expressed exactly how happy she was, that my efforts as a teacher had been rewarded with good results.

You look really good, Shijoin-san.

Hmm, thank you. But Nihama-kun also has a very good look on his face.

Yeah, we worked hard together, didnt we?

We both thought of each other, and through our efforts, we were able to get the results we wanted.

We both chuckled with a pleasant sense of satisfaction.

And in the midst of this warm atmosphere

Haha! I heard about it, Haruka!

The voice I didnt want to hear the most right now echoed in my ears, and I was brought back to my senses.
