“A way to boost your self-esteem?”
“Yes. I wondered if Tokiwa san would know anything about it.”
The next day, I decided to turn to someone who seemed to have a high self-esteem.
I found Tokiwa san.
She is said to be more experienced than most of the girls in the popular group.
Riria was also a candidate, but I thought she would not be a good reference for Hinayo because of her unusual energy and positivity.
Even if you train a speedy pinch runner to hit a home run, it won’t come to fruition.
Tokiwa san seemed like the more skilled person to deal with that, and even if she didn’t know the answer herself, she probably had connections to other people.
And that choice did not seem to be a bad one.
“I see, so you wanna change the shady girl you know.”
“Yes. I’d like to raise her self-esteem so she can overcome her traumatic past, but I can’t think of a good way to do it.”
“Then, why don’t you just praise her? That’s the easiest way to solve the problem.”
“If that would solve the problem, I wouldn’t be relying on Tokiwa san……”
“That’s for sure. It’s a difficult thing to do.”
Tokiwa san crossed her arms and sighed lightly.
Even though my question was so vague, she seemed to take it seriously. I think that’s what makes her so lovable.
“Is it just a matter of getting as much attention as possible from as many men as possible?”
“Well, to put it bluntly, that’s it.”
“Then, why don’t you go to a concept café or something?”
“Concept cafe?”
Concept cafe—cafe with a theme.
The maid cafes that have been around for a long time can also be considered a type of concept cafe.
In the original world, these are cafes with lots of cute girls, where you can chat with them, play games with them, and have a little bit of special service that does not violate the Entertainment Establishments Control Law. (According to Hirakawa Asahi’s research)
If it is a world of chastity reversal, it would mean that only boys are enrolled in the store.
What is it like? Is it like a light host club?
“By the way, is there an age limit?”
“If it’s a concept cafe that doesn’t serve alcohol, they have no problem letting you in. After that, it’s up to the young princes who work there to decide.”
“Young princes…..?”
“Yup. The boys who are enrolled there.”
“So not lord…..”
“Lord is a bit more mature, isn’t it?”
“I-I see……”
The nuance of language in the world of chastity reversal, it’s unique and difficult……
Well, it’s like “Concept Cafe Maid” has become “Con Cafe Young Prince”. It’s not a perfect antonym, but the young master’s hospitality gives a sense of superiority just from the image of the words.
“……Or rather, Tokiwa san, you know a lot about it.”
“Ufufufu…..I’ve been a part-time girl at a concept cafe for a while.”
“P-part-time….?”
Part-time girl—where in the original world it’s mainly boys.
They mainly guide customers around the store, but they also step in if any trouble occurs and are an important person who maintains order.
In the original world, she is like a male waiter in black, who looks kind on the surface but is extremely scary when they reveals their true nature.
“The salary was really good, but I quit because I was working too late and didn’t get enough sleep. But even after all that work, I still don’t earn as much as the young prince.”
“I-I see…….”
“By the way, Hirakawa, if you’re interested, why don’t you do some casting at a concept cafe? If you’re okay with that, I can introduce you to someone through my connections.”
“N-no, not this time……”
“You sure? Well, the pay is definitely good, so let me know if you need help.”
“Uh, yeah……”
“So that’s why I think that that gloomy girl should go to this cafe.”
Tokiwa san, who had been doing some research on her smartphone without me realizing it, showed me the store’s Instagram account.
…..I mean, Tokiwa san’s phone screen is cracked to pieces.
I heard a rumor somewhere that girls with cracked smartphone screens tend to let their guard down…
Believe it or not, it’s up to you.
“Wow… there are a lot of traditional, refreshing guys here…”
“It’s pretty conventional, isn’t it? After all, women always end up with this sort of thing. That’s why it’s quite popular.”
“I see.”
However, would Hinayo be able to act normal when suddenly confronted with such refreshing boys?
She would be absolutely flustered and roll her eyes. I can see her saying nothing but “Haa……” in the end.
“By the way, is there anything else?”
“Here, how about this one? A place where you can play board games and card games.”
“W-wow, the shelves are all filled with boxes of boats……”
“Young princes plays with us, so it’s very popular among game lovers.”
“I think this might be a good place. Thanks, Tokiwa san !”
“Now Hirakawa owe me one.”
“Eh…..does that mean I owe you a favor?”
“‘Course you are. I’m looking forward to seeing what Hirakawa will do for ,e.”
“Ugh…..I don’t have anything in mind……”
“Well, it’s fine if you do it later. I trust that you’ll pay me back.”
I could only chuckle wryly, thinking that I’d been fooled.
Well, it opened up a path for me, so that’s good.
If Hinayo could go to a concept cafe and get a little flattery, maybe she could be more positive.
I thanked Tokiwa san and left the place.
I should pay back my debt to Tokiwa san as soon as possible.
