Chapter 1956 - How Easy
"You don't want to?"
There was no sound on the other end of the phone, and Haru decided to give another bait in front of Sayaka. His voice seemed to be quite sad and disappointed, and as expected.
"I - I don't mind, but if the food is bad, then I... I won't forgive you!" Sayaka quickly said with a red face while thinking that she was so bold for agreeing to go on a date with Haru.
"Really? That's great!" Haru smiled happily and said, "Don't worry, I will give you the best date! No, I mean, I'll take you to the place where you can eat the best food."
"Th - That's right, you should take me to a good place to eat," Sayaka said flusteredly.
Haru couldn't help but chuckle when he heard her response.
"Why did you chuckle?!" Sayaka's face was so red.
"Sorry, I just couldn't help but imagine what kind of expression that you showed at this moment, and I'd thought that it would be pretty cute," Haru said gently.
"Cu - Cute?!" Sayaka quickly straightened her back and retorted. "Do - Don't say something stupid!"
"Ah, yes, yes, Sayaka-chan is so cute!"
"I'm not! And don't call me "-chan." Sayaka was full of embarrassment at that moment, but her heart raced so fast, and she enjoyed their conversation.
Haru looked out the window and said, "Say, Sayaka, do you remember when we met for the first time?"
"Um..." Sayaka wasn't sure why, but she nodded, and at the same time, her expression turned awkward since she knew their meeting wasn't good.
"When I met you for the first time, I'd thought that I'd never got along with you, and I'd never wanted to get close to such a barbaric girl like you," Haru said.
"Ugh..." Sayaka wasn't sure why, but she felt weak at that moment, and her eyes were brimming with tears. "If you want to mock me, then I'll hang up the phone!" She wiped the tears on her eyes and wondered why she felt so sad at this moment, especially when he told her that she was a barbaric girl.
"I'm not mocking you, and I just want to tell you that when you are gone, somehow I miss you," Haru said softly.
*Thump!*
Sayaka's heart was beating very fast.
"Ah, sorry, I might say too much!" Haru's voice seemed a bit too panicked, but then, he calmed himself and said, "You might be troubled if I say this to you so suddenly, but I really want to see you again, what about you?"
"......."
"Sayaka?"
Sayaka was so shy, and her voice was as small as a mosquito at that moment. "...Me - Me too."
"That's great. It seems that I'm not the only one who feels this way." Haru thought for a moment and asked, "Say, is it possible to call you again?"
"Huh? Why do you want to call me?" Sayaka became flustered.
"So, is it not good?" Haru asked.
"We - Well, if I'm free, I'll call you. I'm pretty busy now!" Sayaka quickly said, but at the same time, she thought to call him every day.
"Well, I won't bother since you're still busy now. Take care of your body, and don't hurt yourself. I still want to see you," Haru said in concern."
"Um." Sayaka nodded, and her tone was so soft at that moment.
"Good night, Sayaka," Haru said.
"Good night, Haru," Sayaka said softly and saw the call was hung up. Standing on the harbor of the Itogami Island, her face and body were so hot, wondering whether the air conditioner didn't work and at the same time, she was wondering whether she had heart disease since her heart was beating very fast, but at the same time, she wanted to meet him as soon as possible!
As for Haru, he only looked at his phone and said with a smile. "How easy."
"........"
Haru shook his head and thought that it was too easy to get Sayaka, and at the same time, he was wondering whether all the girls in the Lion King Organization would become his.
The next day, Natsuki stopped him in class, and when Haru saw her expression, he knew that something had happened again.
"Do you know the first princess of the Aldegyr Kingdom?" Natsuki asked with a snort, wondering how many women this guy knew.
"What?"
Haru felt inexplicable when Natsuki suddenly called him and asked him this question. He might have had a lot of women, but he didn't remember that he had been so close with the princess of the Aldegyr Kingdom. He might have a business in the Aldegyr Kingdom, but he had never been there since the one who managed the business there was his people.
"Don't pretend to be stupid with me, they just arrived on the Itogami Island, and they gave you an invitation letter." In the eyes of Natsuki, Haru was pretending and threw the gorgeous letter directly toward him.
"Don't be jealous, Natsuki-chan. The princess might see my handsome face and become my fan," Haru said and opened the letter that was thrown by Natsuki.
"........" Natsuki wanted to refute, but she couldn't since she knew that this guy was so handsome, so handsome that she had never seen someone as handsome as him in this world, which somehow made her snort and decide to tease him when she got her real body back later.
Haru and Natsuki were still working hard to modify the legendary prison so she could remotely control it without leaving her real body in prison, and they saw the progress on it, which was why she was quite soft with him since she knew that even though she seemed to be quite flirtatious when no one saw him, he was working really hard.
Haru looked at the content of the letter and raised his eyebrow since it seemed everything seemed to be according to his thought.
Kanon's mother had died, and the identity of her mother was Kensei Kanase's little sister, but then, who was her father?
When Haru looked at Kanon's appearance, there was no need to guess who her real father was and added the fact that the first princess of the Aldegyr Kingdom decided to invite him. He knew for sure that his conjecture was right, which made him frown.
"What's wrong?" Natsuki asked since she saw him frowning, feeling worried since she knew that something must be happening.
"They're not looking for me, but they're looking for Kanon," Haru said calmly and put down the letter.
"Huh? They're not looking for you?" Natsuki felt confused. If Haru had something to do with the first princess of the Aldegyr Kingdom, she wouldn't feel that surprised since this guy was very lustful, but it seemed that wasn't the case.
"Natsuki-chan, what's with your eyes? You know, I'm not that bad," Haru said helplessly.
"Really? Then why did I hear that you're so close with Sasaki now?" Natsuki sat on the table, looking at him with a condensed gaze, thinking that every beautiful woman in this school might be eaten by him.
"That's an accident." Haru looked straight at Natsuki and said, "In my heart, you're my favorite teacher, Natsuki-chan. If your real body is here, then I might want to propose to you right away."
"Stupid!" Natsuki's face was so red, and she wanted to throw her fan at Haru, but she stopped since she knew that this guy would dodge. She could only look away with a snort, trying to hide her blush.
"Well, I'll go back now, Natsuki-chan. Thank you for the letter," Haru said with a smile, then left.
Natsuki looked at Haru's back and only realized that this guy seemed to escape her question, which made her lips twitch, and thought that this guy was really cunning, but somehow it brought her a smile since the more she knew him, the more interesting he was.
After he received the letter, Haru went back home, and this time, he didn't bring a female companion, whether Himeragi or Kanon, he wouldn't bring them with him.
Himearagi couldn't understand his decision. Haru told her about the invitation as soon as possible, which made her feel happy. After all, she knew that he cared about her. However, he told her not to go and asked her to protect Kanon, which made her confused.
"Why Senpai? We don't know the intention of the other party, isn't it the best choice for me to go with you? If they have bad intentions, I can protect you, but why?"
Haru held Himeragi's shoulders and said, "Calm down, Himeragi." He wasn't surprised by her reaction since this was how she was, and then explained the situation to her, especially the relationship between Kanon and the first princess of the Aldegyr Kingdom, which caused Himeragi to exclaim.
"It turned out to be like this..."
Himeragi didn't expect such a thing to happen, and it was more exaggerated than something that was written in the novel. The friend that she got along with every day and stayed in the same house would turn out to be a princess!
"So right now, you need to protect Kanon. Whether it is the Aldegyr Kingdom or Kensei Kanase, their target is Kanon. I can't trust anyone besides you, Himeragi, so can you help me?" Haru said softly. His gaze on her was a bit desperate as if she was the only one that could help him, and it caused her to nod subconsciously.
Haru had entrusted her so Himeragi would complete this task!
"Thank you, Himeragi. I know that you're the best."
Watching Himeragi nod without hesitation, Haru smiled and thought that similar to Sayaka, this girl was very easy, which made him worried somehow.
"What? I... Well..."
It wasn't until later that Himeragi reacted and realized that she had been fooled by Haru, but she had agreed to his request, so she could only nod with an annoyed expression while thinking that next time, she wouldn't be fooled by him!
