Volume 7 - CH 1

Akechi Hideyori

[I should’ve never taken you in!]

.

Oba-san reviles me.

.

[You damn Gift Holder!]

.

Master reviles me.

.

[You really are a scumbag, Senpai.]

.

Nodoka reviles me.

.

[Akechi-kun, you’re the worst. You just pretended to be friends with Nii-san to trick others right?]

.

Risa reviles me.

.

[I hate you.]

.

Sakuya reviles me.

.

[Why are you doing all these horrible things!?]

.

Eien-chan reviles me.

.

[You’re not my brother!]

.

Seiko reviles me.

.

[……….]

.

Madoka coldly gazes at me.

.

[I’m going to kill you, Hideyori-kun.]

.

Emi gazes at me with hatred.

.

[In the end, this is who you really are huh…….]

.

Takeru gazes at me with disappointment.

.

.

.

.

.

Why……?

How did this happen…….?

.

.

.

.

“This is just how they see me…….., no, how they see us right?”

.

Someone taps my shoulder.

What.

Who are you?

.

.

“Oi, Oi, you don’t even know who I am? That’s cold. You’ve been using my body to do whatever you want for years right, Mr. [Previous Life’s Me].”

.

.

Previous life’s me?

But that would make you……

.

.

“Don’t try to escape reality now you Virgin. You want me to sleep with your girlfriend?”

.

.

Ahh, so you’re still here after all huh.

.

.

“I will always be with you. As long as you live, I will never die.”

.

.

I got the feeling that that might be the case for a while now.

I’ve interfered with many of the original story’s developments.

.

Even so, I still have a feeling that I might get killed by Takeru someday.

That anxiety must have come from your existence………

.

.

“You didn’t become me. I was just living quietly inside you. You should at least realize the fact that I’m here right.”

.

.

Again, he insists that he’s still alive.

.

.

“I will definitely be revived.”

.

.

He tapped my shoulder again.

.

.

“You call yourself [Akechi Hideyori] but, well, we’ll meet again, [Toyotomi Mitsuhide]-kun.”

.

.

Saying so, he faded away right in front of my eyes.

.

.

.

.

.

————-

“Ugh……, the heck was that dream……..”

.

.

After I became Akechi Hideyori, I had many nightmares of me murdering people.

.

.

However, this is the first time that the real Akechi Hideyori himself speaks to Toyotomi Mitsuhide.

.

.

“Hideyori……? You’re still alive…….? In this body……?”

.

.

I tried calling him but naturally, there was no reply.

.

It would be easy for me to just dismiss the earlier dream as just a dream.

However, I know that there exists a fiend called Akechi Hideyori inside me.

It is just a feeling, an intuition, but I’m convinced that he’s in there.

.

.

The Villainous Scumbag Best Friend, Akechi Hideyori.

Starting this year, I will be living the stage of [Breaking the Chain of Sadness].

.

And at this timing, the real Akechi Hideyori came out and said that he was still alive.

.

Ahh, I can see death flags popping out left and right already……….

.

.

.

.

.

“I have Seiko with me now, Like hell I will just sit back and accept death……..!”

.

.

There, I vowed to myself that I would definitely live through and survive this crazy game.
