I Started To Gain Sentience In An Eroge

Chapter 73: A brief moment of peace

Finally, everything is peaceful once again. In my visual field, there is a well-defined Mr.OOO writing gibberish on the blackboard, the girls sitting where they should be, and one sleeping protagonist with drools all over his desk. Despite the sudden appearance of the school bully, followed by his disappearance, I am glad that no one was harmed.

But I wonder, should I look out for the school bully? Like where he has gone to? Maybe I should ask the girls? Just in case he comes back in the future?

"!!" Ah? Rachel jolted?

"!!" Laura, too?

Coincidentally, as I glance at them, they both notice and turn toward me. Laura nods with a light smile while Rachel waves her hand without care. These yanderes girls sure have terrific awareness of their surroundings. Hot damn!

Sometimes I think these two are sisters or something. They react almost the same, albeit in their own ways. If it was not for the influence of this world, Rachel and Laura could have been great friends. The two are like two sides of the same coin, I think.

Oh! I should pay attention to Kurokawa, as well. After all, she was the one who helped me keep my cool when I found out the class rep and blondy were gone. If not for her, maybe I would have collapsed on the spot on the school ground, unable to get up to go find the missing people.

As for the bullies, there is enough on my plate already. I do not give a rat's ass about some one-off villain the story created to make Laura suffer.

Now that my internal and external turmoil has settled, I can dedicate this peaceful study session to myself.

"Phew... Talk about an eventful morning!" I mumble.

Sadly, there is one tiny thing keeping me away from true tranquility.

I can not sit.

I. Literally. Can not sit still. Especially not when the bulge in my pants is not settling down!

Due to their...special show, now I have to sit in class with this...thing trying to look up from my crotch!

And no, it does not feel comfortable! My pants are not nearly big enough to handle something like my friend downstairs!

God!! Laura and Rachel did not play it fairly at all! Who in their goddamn mind would think the two would greet me in their birthday suits!? Not to mention one was completely naked, and the other one had soap covering her sensitive parts! Did Rachel not know that was very counter-intuitive? Doing so would only make me focus on those locations rather than diverging my attention elsewhere! Plus, when the soap bubbles started popping and revealed her delicate body, I slowly saw everything she tried to hide!

Something tells me...No. That is not mere guessing anymore. I KNOW for a fact that blondy did it on purpose! This morning, Rachel has been doing various things to get my attention. Therefore my conclusion that she was doing it to woo me was not just a baseless assumption.

And the class rep, too! I never thought she would show her body like that to me. I mean, I understand she is in love with me at this point. If our relationship continues, someday, we will get to that point. But cutting corners and being determined and straightforward must have limits somewhere, right?

When I looked at our class rep, the first thing that popped into my mind was the word embarrassed. Laura was beet red from head to toe, for goodness' sake. Smoke was coming out from the top of her head as if she were a boiling kettle!

"Please do not stare so much." She told me with a meek-like voice and a couple of teardrops in the corners of her beautiful brown eyes. Probably, she was shaking slightly, too.

Seeing the usual strict class rep in such a wild situation, I felt something inside me awakened.

Yeah... Now that I am really thinking about it, perhaps I want to see more of this defenseless side of hers.

"Bu-Hack! Ack!"

Suddenly, the class rep coughs violently, so much so that her face turns red. But before I can ask anything, she turns toward my seat and makes a hand gesture, implying that she is still okay. Over at the sleeping protagonist's side, right next to his table and placing her chin on her arm, Rachel has an amused face. There is no need to explain that she finds our class rep's ordeal humorous. After all, the relationship between the two is that of rivals more than friends.

Do not get me wrong, though. I am not saying I want to see more of Laura's vulnerable state because I hate her, nor am I complaining. On the contrary, her naked body was nothing less than a divine blessing to me, giving me a boost in all those happy hormones, which washed away any negative thoughts I was suffering at the time.

When I entered the female restroom, my heart was filled with anxiety and self-blame. Honestly, I wish I could remove all those emotions, yet I could not. It was a part of me, and I had to accept it no matter what. Thankfully, the appearance of those two girls gave me the reassurance I needed, although it was not what I expected. In addition, I thought our class representative and the blond-haired girl did not have a good relationship, especially after what happened last night. However, the reality was baffling to me.

At least they were taking a shower together. That means good, right?

Right?!

Ahem!

Anyway, that is that. No need to dwell on it any further. Honestly, I hate talking about my pain and suffering that much. Not only I but everyone has their problem, so I should refrain from complaining. Doing so will only drive people away from me easier and bring up negative emotions.

With the bully out of the way, I should be thinking about how to proceed from this point onward with the main storyline.

Hmmm...

Truth be told, my knowledge about the girls is useless right now.

Firstly, Rachel's main event is already busted because of me. Instead of being with Han, well...you know how that went. Since then, Rachel has been very touchy, pouring all her feelings onto me like a doting wife, despite not being my legal girlfriend. I worry that one day, blondy will jump out and outright murder Laura due to envy and jealousy. Or vice versa. Who knows?

"Chu! Hehe!" From afar, that blond-haired girl blows me a kiss. From the way her mouth moves, I can make out three words.

I. Love. You.

Oh, stop it! You just had to make me blush during class like this!

Instantly, Laura turns toward Rachel and sends her deathly stares with a face that says she is annoyed.

I am sorry, class rep!

One of these days, I am going to be murdered for reacting to Rachel's shenanigans for sure. Where did she learn all these tricks, really? I never saw her doing anything like that to Han?

Defense, C. Defenses. Do not falter into her sweet temptations!

Yea, I know Rachel seems vastly different from her original settings, yet being cautious has helped me escape death many times that I can not help it. It has been only one night since her change, and it will take more than that for me to think differently. That will probably come with time. A hundred years seem like a nice round number.

After Rachel's event is the class rep's. Needless to say, Laura's death flag is completely busted with the help of Rachel. In the past, she was supposed to face the bully alone and head-on because he was bothering the classroom too much. Without being given a choice, she had to do something to stop his actions as the class representative, all according to her settings. But in the current run, a few minutes ago, the trio, which comprised Laura, Rachel, and Kurokawa, confronted the school bully.

Of course, I have no clue if he is coming back and starts pestering Rachel again. Regardless, seeing the reactions, I am confident to have not just one but three of the yanderes on my side this time, not to mention Han is turning into quite a good pal. If I ask for their help, there should be no problem disposing of the bully.

Finally, and probably the most trouble currently, is Kurokawa's case.

I want to save her, no matter how hard it is.
