I Was Reincarnated as a Mob Character in a Galge, and It Seems That I Had Conquered the Heroines Before I Noticed~the Hero Make the Heroines Unhappy, so Iโm Going to Make Them Happy Instead~
[ Minase Akinaโs point of view ]
I have a favorite time.
It is the time I spend reading books.
There is a big library near my house and I used to go there every day when I was little.
I prefer reading books to playing outside with my friendsโฆโฆI was that kind of girl as a child.
โฆโฆ Well, that hasn’t changed much now that I’m in high school. โฆโฆ
I was a member of the library committee in elementary and middle school, and I became a member of the library committee in high school as well.
However, there is one thing that is different.
The other member of the library committee was a male student.
I had only ever been on duty with girls, and I had little experience with boys, so I was worried about getting along with them.
However, my fears quickly disappeared.
Thanks to Sato Yuto, another member of the library board โฆโฆ.
And when I realized that I loved not only the time I spent reading books, but also this time I could spend with him.
I was looking forward to this time coming.
It should have been โฆโฆ that I was looking forward to.
โโโ
After school.
I was at the library for library duty with Yuto.
โโฆโฆThere aren’t many students using the library today either.”
But this is the usual case.
The books that have been returned are also very few at the moment, so it’s a time when I’ve got a lot of time on my hands.
โUm, โฆโฆ, Yutoโฆโ
“Hm? What’s wrong?โ
“Have you read the book I recommended before?โ
A while ago, a long-awaited new work by my favorite author, โฆโฆ Ayakoji-sensei, was released.ใ
It was one of the best works I’ve read recently, so I really want Yuto to read it as wellโฆโฆ and, as usual, I wanted to discuss my impressions.
โUh, ummโฆ.โ
Seeing Yuto’s reaction, I guessed.
Unfortunately, I’ll have to wait and look forward to another opportunity.
“Sorry โฆโฆ.โ
โNo, I don’t mind, it’s okayโฆโ
“What book was it?”
โโฆโฆ eh?โ
For a moment, I felt as if time had stopped.
I was that surprised when I heard Yuto’s words.
Because
It was the first time I was toldโฆโฆ.
“โฆโฆโ
“Akina?โ
โOh, โฆโฆ, I-I’m sorry.โ
I came back to myself when he called my name.
Then I told Yuto about the book.
“That book, right? I’m sorry, I haven’t read it yet.”
“I-I see. That โฆโฆ was very interesting, so I would like to share it with you, too, Yuto.”
โOkay. I’ll read it when I can.”
“โฆ..”
There is no basisโฆโฆ
But I don’t know whyโฆI felt like I’d probably have no chance to discuss my impressions of the book with Yuto.
โฆโฆNo, I shouldn’t think such a sad thing.
“Oh, that’s right. Yuto kun, actually, that Ayakoji-senseiโฆโ
โMore importantly,โฆโฆ”
H-huhโฆโฆ just now, in the middle of a conversation โฆโฆ
Then Yuto started talking about a game he seemed to be into recently.
He was talking about something like โฆโฆ where you shoot your opponent with a gun, but I had almost no knowledge of the game, so I didn’t really understand what Yuto was talking about.
After that, Yuto asked me
“Yes. Akina, do you have plans for this coming Saturday?”
โU-umm. โฆ.โ
I was puzzled because he suddenly asked me something unexpected.
I was about to reply when I was approached by a student who was standing in line at the reception desk to check out a book.
While Yuto was dealing with the student, I was returning the returned books that had somehow accumulated to the shelves.
“โฆ.โ
While I was putting the books back on the shelf, I suddenly thought of this and stopped my hand.
Is Yuto-kun really โฆโฆ Yuto-kun?
I had felt the same discomfort once before, but at that time I thought it was just my imagination and didn’t pay attention to it.
It’s true that I felt Yuto kun had changed recently, but I thought it was just that.
But now I am not sure if it is really so.
That’s how different Yuto was just now from the man he was before โฆโฆ.
“No, it’s more like, now I need to stop thinking and start moving my hands โฆโฆ.”
I decided to interrupt my unrealistic thinking and resume my work.
“I wonder if it will reachโฆ”
I stretched to put the last book back on the top shelf, but I couldn’t reach it just in time.
And that’s when I realized
โDo you want me to put that book back here?โ
โUh, โฆโฆy-yes.โ
โOkay. Yoishottoโฆโฆ. Is that okay?”
“Yes. Thank you, Chitose-kun.”
Chitose-kun, a classmate of mine, lent me a hand.
โDon’t worry about it, Minase-san.”
Chitose-kun had a book in his hand.
It seems that he is going to borrow it from now on. โฆโฆโฆโฆeh
“I’m going to go now, then.”
โAh,โฆโฆ Chitose-kun. Please wait a moment.”
Chitose kun was about to turn on his heel, but I couldn’t help but stop him.
there was something I really wanted to ask him.
โMinase-san? What’s wrong?โ
โUm, โฆโฆ Chitose-kun. That book โฆโฆโ
The book that Chitose-kun was holding in his hand.
It was that book that I recommended to โฆโฆ Yuto.
If I had not stopped him at that time, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life, I would think so later.
