NEET Received A Dating Sim System Part 1 (ch.1-200)

Chapter 185 - "Princess"

Hoshi finished speaking to the other students.

Seiji was also finally able to face reality.

"Senpai..."

"Let's go outside the classroom to speak."

The stares from the other students were still a bit painful to bear.

"Senpai... you seem rather fatigued; have you been having a difficult time recently?" Hoshi seemed concerned for Seiji as they walked into the hallway.

'Yes, I'm having a difficult time. All my fatigue is because of you, damn it!'

"It's okay... some stuff happened, but it's already taken care of." Seiji sighed.

"Was it about Kagura-san?" Hoshi blinked in seeming realization.

Seiji nodded.

"I knew it! I figured that Senpai must have been working behind the scenes for Kagura-san's sake!" Hoshi clenched his fist as his eyes began sparkling. "And now, Senpai's dealt with every problem and saved Kagura-san! Right?"

"Saved... I suppose." Seiji awkwardly averted his gaze. "But I didn't take care of every problem. I could only deal with some of them."

"Senpai, you're being humble again."

"Not at all; I'm just telling you the truth... Eh? I feel like I've said something like this before." Seiji fixed his gaze on his junior. "Don't overestimate me. There are things I can't accomplish either, so please remember that."

Hoshi didn't reply and merely looked at him with a bright smile and stars in his eyes.

There was nothing vicious whatsoever about Hoshi's expression.

'Why can I still feel a chill, then?' Seiji's eyebrows shot up.

He wanted to say something else, but before he could speak, Hoshi began talking again.

"How's Kagura-san doing now? She hasn't been coming to school ever since that day, so I was a little worried, but when Senpai stopped coming to school as well, I guessed that she must have been together with you..."

"Yeah. She and I... got involved in some things that are hard to talk about." Seiji scratched his face. "Now... she's become my adopted sister... we're going to live together."

Hoshi was rendered speechless.

"Wha-?" Two seconds later, he finally realized what he had heard and made a sound of astonishment.

Ever since that phone call that day, Hoshi had been imagining how the situation would be resolved.

But this result was far beyond his imagination!

"Adopted... sister? Live together!?" The handsome boy (in female clothing) was utterly stunned.

Seiji nodded in embarrassment.

"Even though I wanted to wait for you guys to finish talking, I'm no longer able to just stand by after hearing this," a voice said from beside them.

It was Chiaki.

Chiaki and Mika had been waiting on the side, but she couldn't help interrupting at this point in the conversation.

"Kagura-san became your adopted sister and is even going to begin living together with you? Heh heh, Seigo, do you still remember what I told you last time?"

The tomboy flashed a dark smile.

'Even Chiaki is acting like this... this is too much!' Seiji felt helpless about the situation.
