Chapter 16: Third Teammate

Why did people sympathize with those who had small breasts?

Why did they use small breasts for jokes?

Why did they think that small breasts were something to be pitied?

I had worked hard.

I drank soy milk, I drank normal milk, I ate cheese, I wore a night bra, I did breast exercises, I even did naughty things with myself secretly. I tried lots and lots of things. But it was no good. I remained tiny. All that effort, unrewarded.

But it’s okay. I noticed. I noticed.

If the people who think I have small breasts go away, I won’t be small-breasted anymore.

If the people who look at me with pity in their eyes go away, I won’t be pitiful anymore.

It was simple.

So I was going to ask everyone in Shinonome. I was still embarrassed so I covered my face with a mask and put on a coat.

"Are my boobs, big?"

"Come to think of it…"

The following day after school. One night had passed since I reluctantly submitted to Soya’s threats and ended up teaming up with her. I was on the way to the staff room with Soya. We were going to ask them to introduce us to first-years who hadn’t teamed up with anyone yet. freewebno(v)el.com

Soya suddenly looked at me dubiously.

"Could it be that your ability can affect not only ghosts and shikigami but also living people, Furuya-kun?"

Honestly speaking, it could.

As long as I thrust at the hidden "pleasure point" that randomly appeared somewhere on a person’s body with my hands, they would instantly climax, whether they were dead or alive.

But should I tell her?

As a team, I should share some information about my ability. But I was worried… that if I shared this information, she would draw away from me in disgust.

"…it can, huh?"

Soya looked up at me with half-lidded eyes. Ah, here it was, the disgust.

"Well, since it works on the living too, it means that I can also exorcise evil spirits and ghosts that have possessed someone. That should be great for increasing the types of work I can do…"

Soya quickly distanced herself from me.

"If you come within arm’s reach of me, I will sue you for sexual harassment."

"Don’t screw with me!"

Don’t do that! You’ll hurt my feelings!

This was why I didn’t want people to know about this ability!

"Although it’s true that my ability works on people, as long as I seal it with these bracelets, you’ll be fine so don’t worry."

I turned both my wrists up towards Soya to show her my bracelets and their crucifixes.

"Eh, what’s this, what’s this?"

Soya reached for my bracelet with a twinkle in her eyes.

Soya’s soft hands touched me for a short time, causing my heart to beat faster.

Didn’t she say something about suing me for sexual harassment if I got close to her?

"Your curse is pretty strong isn’t, Furuya-kun? Despite that, you can control it!? Geez, I wish I could also control my ability… but, who did this for you!? This seal!"

"That… my foster father did it, the one I told you about yesterday. Although he couldn’t exorcise it, he still managed a simple seal."

"Introduce me to him too!"

"Ah–, that’s impossible."

I said while opening the door to the staff room.

"My foster father has already passed away."

"…I see."

I had stated the fact nonchalantly, and Soya, sensing something, also gave me a nonchalant reply.

This was an industry where deaths were not uncommon.

"Oh no, seriously?…"

In the staff room, we were given information about a student who hadn’t yet joined a team. Although it was decided that Soya and I were going to recruit that person… I had my head in my hands.

"What’s wrong, Furuya-kun? Karasuma Aoi, whom the teacher introduced to me, is one of your classmates, isn’t she? She was quite helpful before when she told me various things about you. Is there a problem?"

I wanted to say that there were only problems.

Although Karasuma had said something about true power and that her power couldn’t be measured by the school, it didn’t change the fact that Karasuma’s grades were among the worst.

Her guiding principle was "Anyway, I want to do whatever I want with girls!" That was all she cared about. She was likely going to simply do as she pleased, hitting on clients and seducing evil spirits while working. Rather, she was definitely going to do that.

In addition, I was worried about her relationship with Soya.

Although it seemed like she had acted normal in front of Soya during the shikigami’s rampage, she had said something about targeting Soya. I thought it was dangerous to put them on the same team.

"Good grief. Why did that fellow have to be the only one left? Out of all people…"

The only ones who still hadn’t sent their team applications to the school yet at this point were me, Soya, and Karasuma.

It appeared that the last few remaining students that Kaede mentioned had already all completed their team applications yesterday. Including Karasuma, the three of us were the dregs of dregs.

"Oh, could it be."

Seeing me so reluctant about recruiting Karasuma, Soya grinned at me.

"Are you embarrassed about revealing your ability to Karasuma-san?"

"Ahhhhh! That too!"

Although I had ordered Soya not to tell anyone about my abilities and to be careful about not revealing anything to our surroundings, the rules couldn’t be applied the same way to teammates.

Because there were limits to how much I could hide my ability when on a team.

"If Karasuma finds out my ability, I’ll… definitely be in trouble."

In contrast to my distress, Soya seemed rather optimistic.

"Don’t worry, don’t worry, Karasuma-san seems like a tolerant person, I’m sure she’ll accept your cringey ability if we tell her."

Well, sure, she’ll accept it, but… knowing her, she’d probably try to steal my arms, even if it meant cutting them off. At any rate, I had a strong feeling that things were going to be very troublesome.

"Besides, the girls who were supposed to team up with Karasuma-san told me a little while ago that she has an amazing binding technique! It seems to match well with your cringey ability, so I have a feeling that this is a sign of good things to come!"

Hmmm. If that was true, did that mean Karasuma that hadn’t been bluffing and actually had some kind of true power?

…Well, no matter how useful her ability might be, I was still feeling conflicted because Karasuma’s character was so horrible that it canceled out whatever benefits she brought with her.

It seemed like Soya hadn’t heard of Karasuma’s personality yet, as she hummed while taking light steps.

What an easygoing fellow…

"Well, I suppose it will be easier to show you Karasuma than to explain her to you."

I said and opened the door of the classroom where Karasuma was waiting.

I had already contacted Karasuma and told her to wait here.
