Volume 10 - CH 70

Sawamura Yama

After Hideyori ran out, Oba-san also left.

The coffee shop is now being populated by only the members of the Western Army and Master.

While wiping the table, Master eyed the door the two just left through with envy and let out a sign. The two managed to get away.

Then, thinking that he probably has to close his shop today too, he let out another sigh.

.

.

“W, Who is Sawamura Yama, Risa-chan!?”

.

.

The uninformed Emi and a few others who do not recognize the name looked at Risa questioningly.

Even Towa who keeps up with the latest trends can’t think of anyone by that name.

.

.

“I, I don’t really know but……..I heard Nii-san and Akechi-kun mentioned the name before so I think my brother would know.”

“Let’s call Juumonji-kun over!”

“Hey, why would you call Takeru over for such an idiotic thing!?”

.

.

With the pressure from the 12 girls, Towa asked Master who was looking at them with sympathetic eyes [Who is this Sawamura Yama?]

.

.

“Let’s look it up. Hey Siri, [Find me Sawamura Yama].”

“[Y, You pervert girl!? PERVERTTTT!]”

“Shut up. Also, you are an AI but you know about Sawamura Yama too right, wouldn’t that make you a pervert too?”

“[……….of course, I am]”

“I know. Just quickly give me the results.”

.

.

Sakuya made Siri spill out the search results with a commanding tone.

.

.

“Eh? EH!!? Siri is that kind of AI!? Isn’t anyone going to make a retort!?”

.

.

Misuzu retorted the fact that everyone just readily treats Siri’s response as though it’s the most natural thing for it to say.

Then, Nodoka explained [Siris come equipped with an artificial personality based on your sim card].

[Is that so.] Unfamiliar with Siri, Misuzu accepted the explanation and tried using it herself.

.

.

“Hey Siri, [Look up Sawamura Yama!]”

“[……………]”

“Siri! Look up Sawamura Yama!”

“[…………..]”

“Look it up!”

“[………..just because you have an AI doesn’t mean that you should just rely on one for everything you know…….?]”

“What’s up with Misuzu’s sassy Siri!?”

“[Haa……., my owner is a miss huh…….]”

“You Baka-ri!”

.

.

Misuzu irritatedly yelled at her phone.

.

.

“[Fine, I will look it up. Here].”

“You just looked up a person called Sawajiri though!? Misuzu’s going to uninstall you now.”

“[Waitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwaitwait! I’ll do it! I’ll do it so don’t uninstall me!]”

.

.

While watching the exchanges between Misuzu and her Siri, Mitsuki muttered [It seems we might be better off without using Siri huh] while tapping on her phone. Then, a mechanical [GAAAN!] voice rang out from her phone.

.

.

“Wha!? What!? ……eh, Sh, She’s an A-V person……!?”

.

.

Mitsuki was tapping through the search results with a red face.

.

.

“A-V!?”

.

.

Everyone jumped at Yurika’s surprised voice.

.

.

“So…….she does animal videos?”

“Yes. There are some beasts involved. Here, Yurika, sit down and order a drink first okay.”

“One diet cola float please!”

“You took lessons from yesterday huh……..”

.

.

Emi took Yurika to the counter with warm eyes while Yurika herself delightfully awaited her cola float.

.

.

“Ah…..!?”

“Aneja? What’s wrong?”

“……it’s, it’s nothing. It’s just a little embarrassing.”

“W, What! My stainless-steel hearted Aneja is embarrassed!?”

“My heart is not that tough okay!?”

.

.

Madoka turned red at the sight of Sawamura Yama on her phone.

There’s no doubt that her reaction came from what she saw.

However, just seeing some skin of someone of the same sex wouldn’t normally rattle her like this.

And as for why she’s blushing……..

.

.

(Sawamura Yama’s face, it looks just like Kurusu Yumi’s……!)

.

.

Black hair, eyes and eyebrows shapes, even the hairstyle.

They are all overlapping with her previous self.

.

.

(Akechi-kun……, I would have let you see everything if you’d just said the word……!)

.

.

Her chest may be smaller now but her willingness to go along with whatever he requests is still there.

.

.

“I love this part of you Akechi-kun!!”

“Eh!? You like Hideyori-senpai because he likes Sawamura Yama!?”

.

.

At this stage, no matter what Hideyori does, her love for him will only go up.

Madoka might be too down bad already.

.

.

“Nou-chan……we’re not sure yet that Onii-chan likes Sawamura Yama right……..”

.

.

Seiko muttered as she was still clinging to the hope that it was not set in stone that her brother is truly a fan of Sawamura Yama yet.

However, knowing the truth, Risa and Master almost applauded out loud for her bravery.

.

.

“……..hmm, I think I have seen this Sawamura Yama person somewhere before.”

.

.

Haruka held her head while looking at the photo of Sawamura Yama on her phone.

She can’t possibly know the face of an A-V person but at the same time, it doesn’t feel like this is the first time she’s seen this face.

.

.

“D, Don’t tell me, Haruka-san’s little brother is……..!?”

“It’s, it’s not like that!”

.

.

Haruka’s face turned red at Risa’s words.

However, since she never saw such things in her brother’s room, Haruka immediately denied it.

.

.

“C, Could it be Haruka’s father……..!?”

“Please stop treating my family like they are perverts!”

.

.

Haruka blushed even harder as she denied Misuzu’s accusation.

.

.

“Nn? Father……?”

“What’s wrong?”

.

.

Misuzu’s words made Haruka think of something.

It’s like when an answer just popped up in your head while you’re in the middle of doing an exam.

.

.

“I remembered it! She’s Murasawa-san from our class’s mother!”

“Murasawa? Murasawa Umi huh. I think her attendance number came just before yours right?”

“Yes! I remember Murasawa-san’s mother at the entrance ceremony since she was so pretty and her chest was super big!”

“Murasawa huh…….I think Eimi told me that [Her mother is not that well known but she’s an actress] before……..”

.

.

“Eimi-chan did!?” Emi said at the mention of her cousin.

With no idea how she always obtains these kinds of information, the three who know Eimi start to get terrified of her.

.

.

“Sawamura Yama’s daughter is in Mitsuki-san and Mishima-san’s class!?”

“Master…….?”

“Oh, nothing……..”

“………..”

.

.

That was probably the most excitement he got all year when he overheard the conversation.

While his daughter is eyeing him with suspicion, Master plays it off with an easygoing attitude.

.

.

“Certainly, Sawamura Yama and Murasawa do look similar huh……”

“Right!? They are so similar aren’t they!?”

.

.

Since she had never made Murasawa sick because of her [Energy Drain] before, Haruka doesn’t feel any guilt associating with her.

That’s part of the reason they sometimes chatted in class.

.

.

“…………why do they keep going on and on about Sawamura Yama I wonder?”

.

.

While enjoying her own glass of diet cola float next to Yurika, Yoru muttered with an exasperated sigh.

However, among the members of the Western Army, instead of feeling jealous, they look up to her as [Sawamura Yama = Hideyori’s type of woman].

.

.

“………I need to get my chest bigger.”

.

.

Emi puffed out her chest with all she had to show her determination.

Author Note: Murasawa Umi was not mentioned by name but Hideyori had praised her appearance before in V8C14

And Nope, she’s not a character from the game.

.

At the moment, the Murasawa family has 3 members appearing in the story.

Grandmother, Sawamura Kawa (Stage name)

Mother, Sawamura Yama (Stage name)

Daughter, Murasawa Umi (Real name)

.

.

If Murasawa-san makes her debut then her stage name might be Sawamura Umi…..!

Sawamura Yama’s real surname is Murasawa.

The name sounds oddly familiar to a place name, isn’t it?
