I'm in a real religion, why are all the people who confess to me girls?

Is this the time to be concerned about how to get castrated?

"Horikita-kun, you've had a tough time too."

Fujiwara-senpai patted Horikita, who was holding a kitchen knife, in a comforting manner.

"You'll get used to it. That's just how Tianyin is. Would you like some drinks or tea to quench your thirst? Arguing in the hallway will make you a laughingstock."

"I agree, that's too embarrassing."

I agree.

I'm dying of thirst!

……

So the battlefield became Horikita's room.

Horikita put two low tables together, then prepared snacks and drinks, and then began to prepare food for everyone.

I was planning to cook a nice meal for Tianyin today, but Tianyin's troubles delayed me.

Fortunately, Tianyin usually has the habit of stocking up on snacks, so now she can take them out to entertain others.

However, the tomato juice she stockpiled in order to prevent the school from shutting it down was not something anyone was willing to try.

"I always felt that Amane, Sakayanagi, and Kiryuin had a very good relationship."

Karuizawa, who had been hiding in the crowd for fear of being killed by Horikita, spoke up quietly at this moment.

"Karuizawa, how did you get the idea that they have a good relationship?"

Ibuki rested her chin on her hand while popping snacks into her mouth.

Amane, who was standing next to her, was pinned against the wall by Sakayanagi's cane.

Kiryuin then grabbed Amane's face and lectured her.

It looks like the two of them were using violence against the head of the disciplinary committee.

"Ibuki-san probably has no experience in dating, right?"

Shiina, who was standing nearby, suddenly chuckled and asked.

"Huh? Why do you need dating experience? Those guys only like girls' faces. It's a pity I don't have a pretty face like yours. Karuizawa's face is more than enough to seduce adults, right?"

"Hey! Ibuki, you're being incredibly rude!!"

"But I'm telling the truth, aren't I? Karuizawa, don't you think you're good-looking?"

Ibuki's question immediately made Karuizawa blush.

"I'm not as pretty as you say... Ibuki-san, what you're saying is way too exaggerated..."

Karuizawa scratched her cheek, looking a little shy. Although she said she wasn't that pretty, it was obvious to anyone that Karuizawa was pleased with the compliment.

After all, what girl can resist someone complimenting her on her looks?

Moreover, Karuizawa is a guy with a strong sense of self-respect.

"hypocritical"

Ibuki pursed her lips and continued to watch the show.

Karuizawa was furious with Ibuki, but since there were so many people around, she couldn't lash out, so she just assumed Ibuki was jealous and didn't respond to her.

Meanwhile, Fujiwara, who was enjoying the show the most, was already discussing the plot with Kusanagi.

It turns out that Tianyin launched a night raid on Guilong Academy. After being discovered by Guilong Academy, she tried to escape but was captured.

To teach Tenon a lesson, Kiryuin took advantage of her in the same way. Then, Tenon, knowing that Kiryuin had retaliated more often than her, started faking tears at the slightest provocation, leaving Kiryuin bewildered. In the end, like a fool, she let Tenon make up for the number of times she had missed pinching her.

They even believed what the heavenly voice said about doing it a hundred times.

In the end, Tenon stayed in Guilongyuan's room for another night. However, since Tenon was a restless sleeper, Guilongyuan, unable to bear it any longer, kicked her off the bed.

That's roughly how things went.

Fujiwara was surprised to learn that Kiryuin, whom she had always believed to be the perpetrator, was actually a dull-witted victim.

Currently, Fujiwara and Kusanagi are arguing.

The argument stemmed from Kusanagi's insistence that the three white-haired individuals were definitely related by blood and that their eye colors were very similar, especially Amane and Kiryuin. He even compared himself to his brother, Kyo, claiming that the siblings had the same hair color.

But Fujiwara insists that the three of them just happen to have the same hair color.

Shiina also showed up to express her support for Fujiwara's statement.

However, the great war over there has entered a new phase.

Chapter 386: Fair Competition?

"If I and this guy both fell into the water, Tianyin, who are you planning to save?"

While pinching Amane's face, Kiryuin pointed at Sakayanagi beside him.

"Hmph, is this the only childish question you can ask? Maple, guess who Tianyin will save first?"

Sakayanagi maintained an elegant smile, but his tone was not so friendly.

"Naive? I think Tianyin will definitely choose to save me. Is it possible that some little brat will burst into tears like a kindergarten child when he hears an unsatisfactory result?"

Kiryuin covered his mouth and let out a soft laugh.

"I'd definitely save Arisu."

Tianyin looked at Guilongyuan with a serious expression and said words that were meant to kill someone's spirit.

"Hehe, I think I just heard someone saying something interesting, Maple, did you hear that?"

Sakayanagi's smug look infuriated Kiryuin, who gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Amane, causing Amane to shrink back in fear.

"Let's talk this out, don't bite me!"

Upon hearing Amane mention biting, two red blushes immediately appeared on Sakayanagi's face, and his gaze turned fierce as well.

"Don't mention the biting incident again!"

"Why did you choose Sakayanagi?! What's wrong with my looks or figure compared to hers?"

In a fit of anger, Kiryuin blurted out his true feelings.

Even Ibuki and Karuizawa came over to watch.

Kamuro even tried to take out his phone to record a video, but Shiina, with a smile on her face, took the phone away.

Looking at Shiina's gentle smile, Kamuro couldn't get angry. She could only vent her resentment by eating snacks. It was not easy to have such leverage. As long as she had such leverage, she wouldn't have to be afraid of that guy Sakayanagi ordering her around anymore.

But now... humph.

"No... what does this have to do with looks and figure? Hmm, I haven't paid attention to your figure in a while, Maple, has it gotten a little...?"

Tianyin made a lewd gesture with her hand and was immediately met with a fierce attack.

"With so many people watching, can't you be serious for once?"

Guilongyuan really wanted to bite Tianyin to teach her a lesson.

With so many people watching, if she gets touched...

Wouldn't that mean she could stage an accident to extort money? If she's shameless enough, she could throw a tantrum and make Tianyin take responsibility, and then…

Hey.

"Maple Flower, you're giving me a really wicked smile."

Tenon reached out and poked Kiryuin's cheek.

It's soft, and feels even better than the texture of Sakayanagi, probably because Sakayanagi is a slender type.

Snapped.

Tenon's hand was slapped off by Kiryuin.

"You poked my face, didn't you?"

"It seems there is something like this... Kaede, you seem a bit off, Arisu..."

"Answer me if I have it or not"

"Probably."

"..."

Guilongyuan was completely speechless. How could Tianyin, who used to be so bold, have become so timid now?

"I think Maple should wipe your drool before you can fool this guy; your intentions are too obvious."

Sakayanagi handed Kiryuin a tissue.

"What? I was actually drooling? You damn Sakayanagi, you tricked me!"

"Oh dear, I misread it. I'm so sorry, please continue, I'm a little thirsty."

As he spoke, Sakayanagi sat down at the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Arisu, save me!"

"My hearing hasn't been working too well lately, Tianyin, what did you just say?"

Sakayanagi smiled sweetly.

It's so fake.

Everyone's understanding of Sakayanagi has reached a new level.

Then everyone looked at Tenon with a "good luck" look, thinking that this idiot would probably be bullied by the Ghost Dragon Institute forever.

"Dinner's ready! Everyone, get ready. Matsushita-kun, could you please distribute the bowls and chopsticks? If you don't have enough, there are plenty of unopened ones in the next room. Karuizawa-kun, could you please distribute the drinks? We're going to have a toast to celebrate later."

"no problem"

Leave it to me.

The others didn't sit down either; instead, they all got up and busied themselves. Some opened the gift boxes, took out the three-tiered cake, lit the candles, and waited for the heavenly voice to grant a wish.

Others helped serve the food, creating a heartwarming scene. Apart from the birthday person being pinned against the wall and subjected to some rough treatment, everything else proceeded smoothly.

"Aren't you two finished yet? All the dishes are served."

Horikita calmly picked up his drink.

Seeing this, Kiryuin had no choice but to release Tenon. As soon as he let go, Tenon swiftly moved to her seat and, without anyone noticing, poured herself a full drink and held it high.

Kiryuin sighed and could only sit down, reluctantly raising his cup.

Happy birthday, Tianyin!!!

……

After the meal, since everyone had classes the next day, they simply handed over the gifts they had brought to Tianyin and then said their goodbyes.

This left Tianyin feeling somewhat frustrated, as she had originally planned to dominate the games after the birthday party and regain some face.

Unlike the others who went straight back to their dormitories, Sakayanagi surprisingly invited Kiryuin to take a walk on the playground, ostensibly to aid digestion.

However, judging from Sakayanagi's physical condition, he probably won't be able to walk more than a few steps before he has to stop and rest. Rather than digesting his food, it's more likely that he has something to say to Kiryuin.

Kiryuin readily agreed.

Amane originally planned to go downstairs, but Horikita caught her and made her clean up the mess. Everyone helped wash the dishes and chopsticks, but Amane still had to deal with the cake and other things.

Sakayanagi cast a grateful glance at Horikita for leaving the troublesome guy behind, but unfortunately, Horikita did not respond.

Sakayanagi didn't mind Horikita's attitude and slowly left the dormitory building with Kiryuin.

Strolling on the playground.

"I didn't expect that guy named Horikita to be such a good cook. He's almost as good as my family's chef."

Kiryuin seemed to be reminiscing about the birthday party he had just attended, but his gaze never left Sakayanagi even for a second.

She desperately wanted to know the secret behind Sakayanagi's invitation to meet her.

However, Sakayanagi hadn't uttered a word since coming downstairs, leaving her no choice but to break the awkward atmosphere. Kiryuin was well aware that the person who spoke first would be at a disadvantage in the conversation, but she didn't have any better options.

"I think Horikita-kun's cooking skills are still somewhat lacking compared to Amane, aren't they?"

Sakayanagi now prefers Amane's craftsmanship, but Kiryuin knows better that Sakayanagi is using Amane's name to provoke her.
