–A few days later.
I was back home after eating out.
I live alone now, but even if I trace back Ohgo Kaito’s memories, I myself can’t cook at all in my previous life, so I have two choices: eat out or buy food at a convenience store.
“There’s a lot of work to be done……”
I have no problem with my reincarnation because I have the know-how to make money. I have more money than I can use, so it’s not a problem, but I don’t have any particular use for it.
Well, I don’t mind that oddity, but the house is a bit big, so it’s hard for me to take care of it.
In my previous life, I had allergies, so I had to clean the house three times a week after I lived alone, but it wasn’t hard at all because I lived in an apartment.
But this house is different.
In the past, Ohgo Kaito seems to have hired a housekeeper, but I’m not good with that, or I’m a bit reluctant to have people I don’t know come in and out of the house, so I stopped hiring one.
That’s why cleaning is a little….or even a lot of work.
I’ve become a clean freak because of my allergies, so I don’t have a choice but to clean.
As I was walking with these thoughts in mind, I saw a girl I recognized surrounded by three people who appeared to be college students.
“Is that…..Kaoru?”
Why is she that at this hour,……come to think of it, Kaoru was attending a cram school, right?
Her grades were always at the top and she studied hard.
“It’s not the time to think that.”
If it was Kaoru, there’s even a possibility that she would be pushed……
I can’t leave her alone, so I decided to go and talk to her.
◇
“C’mon, lte’s go ! I’ll entertain you.”
“Yes, yes, we may look like this, but we’re gentlemen.”
“Let’s go.”
“N-no……”
As I approached, I heard such a voice, so I approached and pulled Kaoru towards me.
“Kaoru? You should’ve said no to this kind of thing, okay?”
“K-Kaito kun?”
When I looked at Kaoru’s face, her eyes were red and moist.
She was scared because she was getting hit on but she couldn’t say no because she was afraid they would do something terrible to her if she refused……it was probably something like that.
I looked at the guys who were picking on her, but I didn’t know them.
Most of the character who played that role were people whose faces didn’t even show up.
Well, it doesn’t matter if these guys were the ones who played the role of the antagonist or not.
I’ve been reincarnated into the world of eroge, so this world is the real world for me now, and I’m not going to make a choice I’ll regret.
It’s only natural for me to protect Kaoru since I decided to make her fall for me.
There’s no need to think about the fact that things won’t go according to the game since I’m not functioning as the main character.
……Well, I just happened to be passing by this time…..I’m really glad.
“You’re this girl’s boyfriend?”
“Well, you could say that.”
Ohgo Kaito’s body is quite strong and he has memories of fights, so I should be able to fight, but I don’t like fighting, so if I can end it as peacefully as possible, I’d like to do it.
Of course, if push comes to shove, I’m not going to give them any mercy……
As I was thinking this, one of the guys behind me started whispering.
I heard him say my name in a low voice, but I think he was saying my name.
“I-I see……we’ll have to give it up if she has a boyfriend……”
“Y-you’re right.”
The men who had been so pushy earlier left with a frightened look on their faces for some reason.
Well, I, or rather Ohgo Kaito, is quite famous around here, so I might have met that guy before…it doesn’t matter.
“Kaito kun……”
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah…….
Kaoru is not crying right now, but she seemed a little dejected.
“I told you before, you should’ve said no. If I hadn’t come, you would’ve gone with them, right?”
“I-I’m sorry….but I was afraid of what they might do to me if I refused……”
Well, I thought that would be the case, but if she went along with them….it could have been even worse.
“But if you went with them, you know what would’ve happened in the worst case scenario, right?”
“Y-yeah…….”
She’s very depressed, and I don’t think it’s a good idea to say too much…….
“Well, come. Let’s get you home.”
“Thanks…….”
–Then we were walking.
”So you’re on your way home from cram school, then?”
“Yeah…I thought in my heart that I shouldn’t say no, but I just couldn’t muster up the courage…”
“Well, it’s not something that can be fixed right away, so in the end you have to fix it slowly…I’d like to say that it’s okay to take it slow, but I’m really worried, okay?”
“I’m sorry.”
“There’s no need to apologize. But, I guess it’s best to stop going out alone late at night. Until you learn how to say no properly.”
“But I have cram school…….”
“Well, can’t you ask your parents to pick you up?”
I said so, but come to think of it, I’ve never seen Kaoru’s family in the game.
Well, I’m sure there are many routes I haven’t taken, so I can’t really say.
“Both my father and mother come home from work late at night, so that might be difficult…..but yes, I’m afraid something like today will happen again, so I’ll ask them.”
“Good. Oh yeah ! Let’s exchange contact information. You can call me right away if you need anything.”
I said that and pulled out my phone and opened LUNE.
Kaoru saw it too and opened her own phone and exchanged contact information with me.
“Okay ! That’s better. If you have any problems or wanna talk to me about anything, don’t worry about it, you can call me right away.”
“Y-yeah ! Thank you.”
“Yeah.”
“Kaito kun ! I live right over here, so you don’t have to worry anymore.”
Kaoru said so and pointed to a house.
“I see. I’ll see you tomorrow then.”
“Yeah ! See you tomorrow. Thank you for helping me.”
“It’s okay. I’m glad as long as Kaoru is safe.”
“Y…..yeah……”
When I said that with a smile, Kaoru turned red and looked down a little.
Yeah, her embarrassed face is also really cute.
I thought I might be able to push her a little more, but she was probably scared because she had been hit on, so I thought it would be better to let her rest early today and decided to go home.
