Chapter 226: [Strategic Point]

Chapter 226: [Strategic Point]

Iroha-chan, Im feeling better, lets do a livestream, a livestream!

Oh, whoa, Ah-nee!? Dont stick to me like that!

A few days later, Ah-nee, completely recovered and was messing with me in the living room.

My and Angu Ogus eyes were filled with disbelief as we watched her.

Well, it seems like everything is back to normal.

Yeah, in the end, our worries were needless.

Yes, the cold was cured, and Ah-nees relationship with me had returned to normalexternally.

Internally, I was sweating over this situation.

Iroha-chan, whats wrong?

Oh, ahaha.

Ah-nee asked with a sly smile, and I awkwardly laughed it off.

Hidden from Mai and Angu Ogus view, Ah-nee had intertwined her fingers with mine.

It was what they called the lovers handhold.

Hehe, Iroha-chan. Its a bit embarrassing, but this is fun, isnt it?

Ah-nee whispered to me with a grin, blushing and looking shy.

They were secretly dating! What is this!?

It was totally different from what I had in mindIf were alone, its okay to be affectionate, I thought!

Hey, onee-chan! Youre too close to Iroha-chan!

Okay, okay. Mai, youre strict, huh~?

Ah-nee laughed and moved away from me.

The hand that had been interlocked with mine loosened. Ah-nees warmth escaped from my hand.

Ah.

Somehow, a sound slipped out. No, its not like Im sentimental or anything! If I were, then Im not!?

Ah-nee slyly winked at me, as if saying, See you later..

By the way, Anego, even if Iroha gets mad, I dont know. I mean, I said earlier, this time is when Japanese streamers are active. Its noisy. Well, whatever.

Its okay. If its just a little noisy, its fine.

After that, a simple planning session for the project began.

Mai was checking my schedule, too.

By the way, is it okay for Mai to help with this? I mean, isnt it summer in the 3rd year of middle school? They say Summer is the Strategic Point of exams, and He who conquers summer conquers exams. Even though spending summer in America is fine, dont you need to study?

Ugh!?

Mai made gestures as if she was hit, crumbling down.

Uh-oh, this looks bad.

But, but, Iroha-chan hasnt been studying at all!

No, dont use me as a reference.

Well~? Even so

Mai and Angu Ogu looked at each other, silently communicating and nodding.

I havent been acting all dere to be called that! If anything, Ive been very considerate.

Yeah~! Iroha-chan, youre like a teacher! Oh, thats right!

Oh no, Ah-nees thats right came out! Usually, things go downhill when she says that.

Now that the cold is gone, every night, Mai and Iroha-chan will be alone in the room, right? In that case, why not have Iroha-chan help with Mais studies!?

Huh?

Lets call her Translation Girl Iroha no, Private Tutor Iroha!

Dont treat me like a teacher so casually!

I shouted, but I had a debt to Mai for helping with my schedule. And above all, the originator of this idea was Ah-nee.

In the end, unable to refuse, I became Mais tutor every night.

Meanwhile, the project steadily progressed.

***

A few days later.

I was tormented by intense vibrations and noise.

How did it come to this seriously? How. Did. It. Come. To. This~!?

For some reason, I was dressed in camouflage, wearing a helmet with ear protection.

And shaking in a tank.
