As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

She discovered that someone was waiting for her at the station, so she had to take a long detour to get back.

Suzuka Ise sat at the dining table, eating a delicious beef rice bowl, when suddenly tears streamed down her face.

"grandmother……"

I wish I hadn't come.

Endo Yoko is a bastard. She picked her up, but then abandoned her and left her to the equally bastard Tendo Kagura, whom she had never met before.

That guy doesn't care about himself at all.

In the empty room, she sobbed softly. Even though she had no worries about food and clothing and her bed was warm, she still felt incredibly lonely.

After she returned to her room, she even had a dream.

She stood there all alone, being bullied and beaten by a group of people whose faces she couldn't see. She looked bewildered and aggrieved. Not far away were Kagura Tendo and Yoko Endo.

She cried and begged for help, but these two bastards not only didn't come to her aid, they also laughed loudly at her, even saying that she hadn't been hit hard enough...

They are not family at all!

A dark feeling of extreme depression, intense anger, and helplessness filled my heart.

She felt trembling with anger, utterly disappointed, and her loneliness reached its peak...

Deng Deng Deng!

A knock came at the door.

Reika Ise suddenly opened her eyes. Upon waking, she felt her eyes were wet, she was extremely tired, and she was covered in sweat. She stared blankly at the pure white ceiling.

She couldn't remember the specifics of the dream, but some emotions lingered—an extremely angry and disappointed feeling that prevented her from falling asleep peacefully.

Reika Ise pursed her chapped lips, reached up to touch her forehead, and found it damp with sweat, her hair plastered to her skin.

She is prone to sweating, but this is the first time she has ever dreamed of sweating.

It was broad daylight outside. I checked the time; it was almost 7:30.

I overslept!

Reika Ise hurriedly changed her clothes, rushed into the bathroom, and rolled out again in less than three minutes. When she came to the dining table to eat, she saw a familiar stranger.

It was a slender, tall figure, sitting in the spot where Tendo Kagura often sat, with neatly trimmed hair and a handsome face—she recognized that face, though only once. She had also seen a photo of Tendo Kagura's mother and thought she was an absolute beauty, flawless in both demeanor and appearance. And Tendo Kagura had inherited that gene.

His eyes are long and narrow, like phoenix eyes. When they are clenched, they can be very intimidating, but when they soften at the corners, they are stunning. His eyebrows are light and curved, like a lotus emerging from clear water, making them look very delicate.

Especially with her neat, short hair, it was hard for Reika Ise to believe that this was actually the same gloomy man as Kagura Tendo. Without the obstruction of long hair, her previously unremarkable features suddenly transformed into something extraordinary.

This is not good at all. She came back so late yesterday, and Kagura Tendo didn't say a word of concern. She even went to get a haircut without a care in the world.

Reika Ise grew angrier the more she thought about it. Fragments of her dream still lingered in her mind. She bit her lip, feeling no emotion whatsoever, but rather an urge to punch him.

However, considering the consequences, Reika Ise swallowed her anger.

Kagura Tendo glanced at her and noticed that Suzuka's face was pale, her eyebrows drooping, and even the freckles on her face looked dull and lifeless. She looked listless, as if her father had died. He had already finished eating, so he pointed to Suzuka's food on the table.

"It's almost cold, do you want it heated up?"

He got back from the haircut very late last night. He knew Suzuka was back when he saw that dinner had been finished, but she was already asleep, so he didn't disturb her.

"No need..." Reika Ise's voice was low, and she didn't even try to explain why she was late.

She finished eating silently, then went to school with her big schoolbag on her back. Kagura Tendo watched her retreating figure and frowned slightly.

It seems something happened.

But he couldn't be sure, as the two hadn't communicated much, and he wasn't sure if it was a matter of the girl's privacy.

After finishing her chores, Kagura arrived at school. As soon as she entered the classroom, the noisy class quickly quieted down, like ducks being scalded and plucked.

At first, only a few people noticed, but soon everyone saw him and stared blankly at the suddenly appearing, refreshingly handsome man.

Super high school level good looks!

But who is this? Did they go to the wrong class? It's a face I've never seen before...

Just as someone was about to step forward and ask a question, they saw this person sit down in the seat of Tendou Kagura.

In daily life, most of the students in the class would ignore this classmate, and there were even more and more outrageous strange stories about him. Therefore, some people knew a little about him, but their impression of him was very shallow, and they never thought that such a reversal would occur.

The case is solved. The unassuming, ordinary classmate was actually a hidden heartthrob!

Half a minute after Tendo Kagura took her seat, the atmosphere in the class began to warm up, and they gradually resumed talking, but their voices were much quieter, as if they were afraid of disturbing someone.

A few stylishly dressed girls suddenly approached, leaning against the edge of Tendo Kagura's table, and said in a familiar tone with bright eyes, "Why did Tendo-kun cut his hair? He looks so unfamiliar."

The speaker kept glancing at his companions around him, showing a surprised expression, and the others cooperated by showing expressions of agreement.

They talk as if they have a very good relationship.

Kagura Tendou remained silent, quietly watching them.

After waiting a few seconds without receiving a reply, the girl in the lead looked disappointed.

"Tendou is so boring."

"Yeah, yeah, boring people won't get girls' attention."

"Hey, let's go. Tendou doesn't seem very willing to talk."

"What? I thought he had changed, but he's still that gloomy guy."

As they spoke, the group left on their own, just as easily and naturally as when they arrived, as if it was Tendo Kagura who was embarrassed.

After these four girls ran into trouble, the others didn't dare to come and bother him rashly, and just regarded him as the former Tendou Kagura... although the difference was so great that it was hard to ignore.

Only Hachiman Hikigaya at the table in front of him had a pair of dead fish eyes, like someone gazing at the starry sky on a plate, his eyes emitting an eerie light, and his whole body exuding an aura of decay and stench.

A thick barrier had already formed between him and Kagura Tendou.

……

Yesterday's portion has been moved to today.

Requesting votes at 4 PM

Actually, the savior just wanted to play single-player mode: Chapter Twenty-Two: To be shot a hundred times

She was just one step away from becoming the most popular character in the class, but Kagura Tendo remained unmoved and continued to maintain her old ways, which calmed down many of the curious classmates.

Then, without prior arrangement, they all removed the fixed gloomy male label of Kagura Tendo and replaced it with a handsome, aloof, and unsociable guy.

The Service Department is located on the east side of the fourth floor of the Special Building.

Yukino Yukinoshita held a paperback book without changing her expression, looking serene and content.

The Service Club was virtually unknown, with no notices posted about it, so students at Soubu High School would hardly know about it. If it weren't for Shizuka Hiratsuka constantly promoting the Service Club to students in need, probably even after graduation, few would come to ask for help.

The commotion of Kagura Tendo and Hachiman Hikigaya made her close her book, but when she looked up and saw Kagura Tendo, Yukino Yukinoshita was slightly stunned, her eyes looking a little strange.

After a period of adjustment, the three get along fairly well; for example, no physical altercations have occurred so far.

"I thought you'd be asked to leave the Service Club on the grounds that unauthorized personnel are prohibited from entering," Hachiman Hikigaya said to Kagura Tendo, his deadpan eyes gleaming.

Yukino Yukinoshita frowned immediately. She didn't recognize people based on first impressions, and she could recognize his identity just by looking at his physique and habits.

But the changes in Tendou Kagura were indeed astonishing. She glanced at it a couple more times, then lowered her head to continue reading.

Soon, Yui Yuigahama pushed open the door and entered, and then the Service Department was filled with a cacophony of chatter, almost like five hundred ducks making a ruckus.

She looked amazed. She had wanted to come over and ask her when they were in class, but she was afraid of being shunned in public and losing face, so she waited until now.

"Tiandao has changed so much."

"Hmm." Kagura Tendo's expression was calm.

"What happened?" Yui Yuigahama imagined a whole series of scenarios, such as meeting someone she fell in love with at first sight, rashly confessing her feelings and being rejected, perhaps even being ridiculed, so she resolved to change herself and make that person regret it...

Poor Tiandao!

"No." Kagura Tendo's calm tone broke Yui Yuigahama's series of chaotic thoughts.

She immediately showed a disappointed expression, just like when she wanted to see a movie but didn't have a ticket.

After a while, she lost interest in Kagura Tendo and turned to whisper to Yukino Yukinoshita. The latter seemed helpless, but she was used to the torment from Yui Yuigahama and answered her questions in a lukewarm manner, which could barely be considered a normal conversation.

There's nothing you can do when you encounter a girl who's too enthusiastic and proactive.

Hachiman Hikigaya observed silently. He wasn't bad-looking at all, and thought that Kagura Tendo's appearance was only slightly better than his own. With a little dressing up, he could also make a striking impression. But seeing Kagura Tendo's plight, he had the idea of ​​maintaining the status quo to avoid suffering further blows.

No matter how handsome he is, no girl will fall in love at first sight; otherwise, it wouldn't be youth, it would be a light novel.

Following Yui Yuigahama, it was Shizuka Hiratsuka who pushed open the door and entered confidently before saying this.

"I'm coming in!"

They should have greeted us before coming in; their words and actions are completely reversed.

After glancing around, Hiratsuka Shizuka saw Tendo Kagura's appearance and said with some delight, "It seems the modifications were quite effective."

Yui looked puzzled, then heard Shizuka Hiratsuka say, "Also, Hikigaya-kun, I'm informing you that your sentence has been postponed."

Hachiman Hikigaya never expected to get caught slacking off after school. He was caught in the crossfire and immediately lost all hope in this terrible world.

Because that way there will be no despair.

"Does Hiratsuka-sensei want me and Tendo to compete to become better?" Hachiman Hikigaya thought helplessly.

Without competition, there is no harm. Putting two similar people together, the one who performs poorly gets criticized and punished. Cunning and treacherous Master Jing, you should just start a company, don't be a teacher anymore…

But Hiratsuka Shizuka was just joking; she actually welcomed the change.

"It seems to be very effective. Yukino did a good job. How did you correct his dark personality?" Hiratsuka Shizuka asked, looking at Tendo Kagura, who was sitting upright in her chair as if it were none of her business.

Yukino Yukinoshita directly rejected Hiratsuka Shizuka's idea, her words as clear and cold as icy snowmelt. She raised her head and said, "Nothing was done, just like before. If you want to get to the bottom of things, you might as well ask Tendo-kun directly."

"Huh? Is that so?" Hiratsuka Shizuka was a little surprised. She looked at Tendo Kagura a few more times and found that he was still the same as before. Then she patted Tendo Kagura on the shoulder and said, "Kid, come with me for a bit."

Kagura Tendo naturally had no objections. She followed Shizuka Hiratsuka into the corridor, leaned her back against the wall, and looked at her calmly.

"Hey! What kind of look is that? Don't you know how to respect your teacher?!" Hiratsuka Shizuka suddenly punched him in the stomach, the sudden force causing him to bend over like a lobster.

She withdrew her iron fist. What a tough guy! Turns out, he still has to kneel down after one punch.

Kagura Tendou clutched his stomach and stood up again, saying with some helplessness, "Teacher, you're not allowed to hit students anymore."
