Book 11: Chapter 3: Part 3

Heres the chapter, enjoy~

Part 3

Ah, Yuuya-san!

Kaori!

After finishing my shift, I was on my way to the locker room to change into my uniform when I ran into Kaori.

How are you doing? Are you enjoying the school festival?

Yes Its a lot of fun.

I say this from the bottom of my heart.

At my previous school, I had never been able to enjoy the school festival. Every year, people around me treated me like an obstacle and wouldnt even let me participate properly.

But this time, for the first time, I was able to cooperate with everyone in the class from the preparations and all the way to the school festival.

At first, I was confused because I had to wear unusual costumes and volunteer to form a band, but now I am really glad that I tried.

Kaori smiled kindly at me.

I see. If you say so, it makes it worthwhile for me to have you join this academy.

Ah speaking of which, how about the Nittei Academy?

To begin with, this years school festival was different from previous years; it became a rivalry with Nittei Academy because of me.

In case youre wondering, even though I didnt mention it openly, and Ousei Academy didnt advertise it widely, Nittei Academy advertised it extensively so that it had become a half-known fact.

Right Kamiyama-san was here just a while ago, but she left in a hurry when she saw how excited Yuuya-sans class was, you know?

Eh, Kamiyama-san was here?

Kaoris cheeks flushed a little red when she was surprised because I had not noticed it at all.

Yes. Um Yuuya-sans working appearance was cool.

Ah

Once again, remembering that I am now in my butlers uniform, I feel embarrassed.

The air was indescribable, and at this moment, a person wearing a hat and sunglasses, obviously in disguise, was approaching.

Oh!

The person let out a shout at the sight of us.

Huh? That voice just now

I instinctively turned to the person and asked.

A-are you, by any chance Miu-san?

Eh?

Kaori was surprised at my words and looked at me. Then, the person took off the sunglasses after hearing my words.

A-ahahaha Ive been exposed.

I-it really was Miu-san

After saying this to myself, I was surprised that Miu-san was at the school festival as I was not expecting her to be here.

Miu-san smiled bitterly and turned to Kaori.

Kaori-san, wasnt it? Its been a while.

Y-yes! Its been a while! So, that did you come to visit us today?

No, actually I wanted to see how cool Yuya-san looks

Eh, what?

Oh! I met Yuuya-san on his way home from school the other day, and he told me that he was going to perform in a band at the school festival, so I was really interested in seeing him

Eehh?

I didnt expect her to come to see us on stage, so I couldnt help but shout.

I was initially going to come just to see Yuuya-sans band performance, but this school festival has been talked about a lot, and I was curious, so I came a little early.

That makes me very happy to hear you say that.

As a student council member of Ousei Academy, Kaori had been working hard to make this school festival a success, so she was happy to be praised in this way.

By the way that outfit of Yuuya-san, is it a butler outfit?

Oh, yes, thats right.

It looks great on you!

As soon as the band started to play the intro, the audience was suddenly enveloped in a stir.

Eh?

I was puzzled, not knowing what everyone was surprised about when I suddenly noticed someone standing next to me.

I hurriedly turned my gaze in that direction and saw a mysterious woman standing there.

She was holding an acoustic guitar and smiling at us.

Sorry, sorry! You guys played so beautifully; I just had to come out.

Y-yes

As I was puzzled, not knowing who it was, Ryo, Shingo-kun, and Akira raised their voices at the same time.

Ka-Ka-Kanadeeeee!

Ka, nade?

I tilted my head for a moment at that word, but then I suddenly remembered that the original singer of our last song was named Kanade.

I looked at the woman, wondering if it could be true, and she gave me a mischievous smile.

Hehehe. Im Kanade. Im the artist who was invited to this stage this time.

Eh eeeehhhhh!?

I-it was real!

I was surprised too, and Kanade-sans eyes brightened up.

Hey, hey, what are you going to play at the end?

Eh? U-um Actually

I told Kanade-san the title of the last song we were going to play. Then she said

No way, thats my song! Thats perfect! Lets play it together!

Eeeeeeeehhhh!

We were surprised at the unexpected proposal.

However, despite our surprise, Kanade-san started to play the intro with her guitar.

Then, Kanade-san looked at us.

We tightened up and began to play the last song.

As expected of Kanade-san, she sang the song herself, but more importantly, her singing ability was incomparable to mine.

In addition to that, her guitar skills were also excellent, which made me feel that professionals are amazing.

I had a great time playing with Kanade-san. I was able to sing my best while listening to Kanade-sans clear voice.

When we finished the last song, the audience fell silent for a moment and then cheered loudly.

A-amazing!

How wonderful to have Kanade here at our school festival!

Everyone was so good!

While the applause was still pouring in, and we were still stunned by the afterglow of the performance, Kanade-san suddenly reached out her hand to me.

Im sorry for interrupting all of a sudden. Your performance was so good; I just had to join in.

N-no! We are honored to have you here!

When I said that, Kanade-san stared at me.

U-um, is there something wrong?

I was just thinking how amazing you are. The president was right!

The president?

Ara? Havent you heard? Im in the same agency as Miu-chan.

R-really?

I was surprised to find such a connection, and Kanade-san smiled.

Anyway, it was a pleasure to play with you guys. If there is another opportunity, lets do it together again!

! Yes!

We shook hands with Kanade-san and left the stage.

Alright! Now that things are heating up, lets get started! Everyone ready?

And as Kanade-sans stage started, we enjoyed her performance as part of the audience.
