The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

Hachiman Hikigaya, who was already determined to win the tennis match, didn't really care who his doubles partner was.

But there's a big difference between not caring and having teammates who are really bad.

Without any room for leniency, Hachiman Hikigaya politely declined Yui Yuigahama's proposal.

"Then we'll have to send Caijia."

With only four people left on Hachiman Hikigaya's side, and after Yukinoshita's elimination and his own rejection, only Saika Totsuka remained.

"Well, then I apologize for bothering you..."

Saika Totsuka, who had been standing obediently to the side, never expected that she would end up teaming up with Hachiman Hikigaya for the competition.

Seeing that the three members of the Service Department were all looking at him.

Saika Totsuka moved shyly to Hachiman Hikigaya's side and whispered.

"It's just a tennis game, what's with that look on your face?"

Looking at Totsuka Saika's shy and delicate face, Hikigaya Hachiman felt like a million alpacas were flying through his mind.

"Then please stand in front, I'll serve..."

Taking the tennis ball from Yukinoshita's hand, Hachiman Hikigaya walked towards the back of the court.

"Gotta win."

As she passed by Yukino Yukinoshita, she suddenly whispered something.

Hachiman Hikigaya simply smiled at this.

Chapter 283 Hachiman Hikigaya's Conditions

"coming soon!"

As soon as Hachiman Hikigaya picked up the tennis ball, Yumiko Miura immediately tensed up.

"Miura, is it really necessary to be so nervous?"

Despite Miura Yumiko's advance warning, Hayama Hayato was already somewhat wary of Hikigaya Hachiman.

But they are just high school students. Even if Hachiman Hikigaya is very good at tennis, he shouldn't be this nervous, right?

"boom!"

A tennis ball being hit at high speed hurtled towards the two of them.

"nice!"

Hayama Hayato, who was distracted chatting with Miura Yumiko, only felt a blur before his eyes, and the tennis ball had already passed behind him.

"Is that really how it is?"

Feeling the speed of the tennis ball, Yumiko Miura's face revealed a hint of understanding.

Because it involves Yukinoshita, Hachiman Hikigaya has absolutely no intention of going easy on her.

After scoring directly from his serve, he immediately followed up with a second point...

"Forty-nil, change of serve!"

As Yui Yuigahama announced the end of the match, the onlookers fell silent.

"Are you kidding me? We only hit four balls!"

Ooka stared in disbelief at Hayama Hayato and Miura Yumiko, who looked utterly helpless on the court.

In the previous game, these two highly anticipated tennis players lost without even touching the ball!

"I said, could you give us a little something?"

During the brief halftime break, Miura Yumiko approached the net and looked at Hikigaya Hachiman with a resentful expression.

Although I knew from the start that it was impossible to beat Hachiman Hikigaya in today's match, I still didn't want them to lose so badly!

Doing this would only give you a good chance to vent your anger, but it wouldn't do you any good for Hachiman Hachiman, since Hayato Hayama is the dream lover of all the girls in the school.

She couldn't guarantee what those mentally unstable girls might do if Hachiman Hikigaya really made Hayato Hayama lose too badly.

Although with Hachiman Hikigaya's strength, he doesn't need to worry about the girls' revenge at all, Yui Yuigahama, who is in his group with Yukinoshita, is very likely to be affected!

"Sorry, I'll be more careful."

Hachiman Hikigaya was quite polite to Yumiko Miura.

After all, she wasn't involved in anything before; she only joined in at the end to help Hayama Hayato...

"competition is over!"

As the tennis ball grazed the tip of Miura Yumiko's racket, referee Yui Yuigahama declared that Hachiman Hikigaya's team had won the final victory.

"That guy wasn't paying attention at all!"

Yumiko Miura stared blankly at the tennis ball rolling past her toes, then glared resentfully at Hachiman Hikigaya on the other side.

What was that last shot compared to that?

Did it change its trajectory twice in mid-air?

He definitely committed a foul by using force!

"Clap clap clap..."

Unlike Miura Yumiko's frustration, Hayama Hayato, who was also stunned by Hikigaya Hachiman's last shot, immediately clapped after regaining his senses.

"Although I didn't like the way you handled things before, you are indeed very good at tennis."

"Well, it's alright..."

Hachiman Hikigaya seemed unimpressed by Hayato Hayama's praise.

After all, without using spiritual power, he could only hit that ball at a specific time at noon.

"Then, as agreed, if I lose the match, you can make any one request."

He was willing to accept defeat, and although it was a pity that the opportunity for Yukinoshita to help him had disappeared, Hayama Hayato still kept his verbal promise and let Hikigaya Hachiman make his terms.

Do you remember the girl named Isshiki Iroha?

"Iroha Isshiki? She used to be the manager of our soccer club, but she was recently dismissed by the club president for some reason."

"As a condition, can you let her return to the soccer club?"

"If it's just about getting her back into the soccer club, that's fine. But..."

Upon hearing the conditions proposed by Hachiman Hikigaya, Hayato Hayama showed a hint of trouble on his face.

In his view, Hachiman Hikigaya was unaware of the real reason why Iroha Isshiki was dismissed from the soccer club.

In fact, everyone in the soccer club felt quite sorry that their junior, Iroha Isshiki, had left.

but......

"Once they step onto the field, all sorts of adverse reactions occur... If this problem isn't solved, even if the soccer club unanimously approves, Isshiki herself will probably refuse, right?"

"Her problem has been resolved."

Seeing Hayama Hayato's unusually conflicted expression, Hikigaya Hachiman told a little lie.

However, he will then go to Isshiki Hatake to repair the hints left in her consciousness, so it's not really a big problem.

"Is that true? If so, we would certainly welcome her back as manager."

Hearing that Iroha Isshiki's symptoms had been resolved, even though Hayato Hayama wasn't very familiar with her, he was genuinely happy for her.

Then Hayama Hayato raised his head, a slight smile on his face, and said:

"I knew I wasn't wrong about you, Hachiman-kun..."

"what?"

"Was it Ishiki who asked you to do the Service Club thing?"

Because he was unaware of the promise between Hachiman Hikigaya and Iroha Isshiki, and because of the Service Club that Hachiman Hikigaya belonged to, Hayato Hayama naturally imagined a scenario in his mind where Iroha Isshiki wanted to return to the soccer club after resolving her symptoms, but was unable to ask for help from the Service Club.

"You took it so seriously even though it was a stranger's request. Hachiman, you're really kind!"

"No, no, no, you've got the root of the problem wrong!"

Seeing Hayama Hayato's expression that said, "I misunderstood you before, you're such a good person," Hikigaya Hachiman internally ranted.

If he hadn't agreed to help Isshiki Iroha pursue Hayama Hayato, he wouldn't have paid any attention to that devilish guy.

Besides, the reason he helped was entirely out of guilt, okay?

After all, it was he who made Isshiki Hachiman afraid to enter the playground...

What does this have to do with his kindness?

However, Hayama Hayato, who already believed that he had misunderstood Hachiman Hikigaya, did not give Hachiman Hikigaya a chance to explain.

After apologizing to the four on behalf of Tobe Sho and making it clear that he would explain to the department head this afternoon his promise to let Isshiki Hachiman return, Hayama Hayato led his companions toward the infirmary.

"Speaking of which, why is it that the Ministry of Revenue students are only going to the infirmary now?"

As she watched Hayato Hayama and his group leave, Yui Yuigahama suddenly had this question pop into her mind.

Chapter 284 The promise became invalid after the confession.

"Who knows?"

Yukino Yukinoshita stood next to Yui Yuigahama, letting her hug her arm.

After hearing Yui Yuigahama's question, which sounded like a murmur, she gave Hachiman Hikigaya a meaningful look.

Hachiman Hikigaya shrugged in response.

He also wanted to know the answer to why Tobu Sho didn't go to the infirmary immediately after being injured.

..............

In a nearly deserted corridor of the activity building after school, Isshiki Iroha stared at Hachiman Hikigaya with a bewildered expression.

"Um, excuse me... could you repeat what you just said?"
