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

It looks a bit strange no matter how you look at it.

There is probably only one possibility to explain this situation: the relationship between Shiina and Amane is probably not as ordinary as everyone imagines.

"..."

Shiina glanced down at Amane. Admittedly, Amane was playing a prank on her, but Shiina didn't think Amane's intentions were bad. Moreover, as Kushida said, although she showed signs of anger, she didn't actually have any desire to resist. After all, her relationship with Amane was only a thin veil away from that point.

Let alone playing such harmless pranks, she even offered to let Amane rest her head on her lap, and that kiss was also like that. Although Amane almost forced her that time, Shiina didn't resist at all, just like she does now.

You should know that she was one of the first girls to become friends with Amane. If you really want to talk about it, even Ibuki, Ichinose, and Karuizawa should be ranked after her. However, at the time, she only regarded Amane as an interesting friend. After all, Shiina, who could make Ryuen suffer, was quite interested in Amane.

So... when did she start having 'improper thoughts' about Tianyin? Perhaps it started from that time on the deserted island?

Watching a girl manipulate everyone with ease, even Shiina, who dislikes conflict, couldn't help but look at Amane, the most dazzling and unique girl, with a different eye. It's like how no matter how much a girl dislikes Amane's style, when she's actually held in Amane's arms, she'll most likely have her heart race and forget to resist. That's how strange a girl's feelings of affection are.

Shiina was no exception, which is why she kept testing Horikita and eventually concluded that Horikita and Amane were not in a romantic relationship. Taking advantage of the conflict and estrangement between Horikita and Amane, Shiina accelerated her efforts to build a relationship with Amane, until...

"What's my relationship with her? Hmm~ Shiina-kun, that's a really interesting question. Amane and I can have any kind of relationship~"

"Any kind of relationship? Well... does that include lovers?"

"A lover? If I just ask, that guy shouldn't refuse."

"But Horikita-san and Amane seem to have a very close relationship? What if you, Sakayanagi-san, get involved..."

"Intimacy? Hahahaha, Shiina-kun, you're overthinking it. Horikita Suzune may be outstanding, and she may have some qualities that attract Amane, but compared to me, the difference is enormous. How long has she known Amane? How long has she liked Amane? I've liked her since she was six years old. I've liked her for a full ten years. I know her better than any of you. If being intimate with her could make someone her lover, then who else could it be but me? What qualifications do others have to compete with me?"

……

Perhaps it was that conversation with Sakayanagi that made Shiina give up on 'liking' him, and from that moment on, their relationship was forever stopped, never taking another step forward.

but……

There will always be some resentment.

"I can't do something like hurting Tianyin."

"Then don't ask me for help. I've already taught you the method; it's just that you're unwilling to try."

Shiina had no choice but to continue repeating her previous actions.

"Ah~"

"Ah~"

Just after a series of failures, the dormitory door was pushed open.

"What are you all arguing about? Don't you take a lunch break? Hiyori? What are you doing?"

Just as Ibuki was about to take a nap, she heard strange noises coming from next door. At first, she thought her roommates were just having a chat and it would stop after a while. But to her surprise, the noises from next door got worse. Unable to bear it any longer, Ibuki went to the dormitory next door and pushed open the door. What she saw then was a scene she would never forget.

Shiina was doing squats right in front of her.

It's still about Tianyin.

This is really a bit too exciting.

Shiina, who was standing nearby, was overjoyed when she saw that it was Ibuki who had entered. She immediately asked Ibuki for help and reached out her hand.

"Mio~ Ah~ You~ You come quickly... to help, Mio?"

When Ibuki heard "Come quickly," her face turned bright red with embarrassment. She never expected that Shiina would still be thinking of her best friend even while doing something like this... But the problem is!! Who would join in on something so perverted?!

"abnormal!"

After yelling loudly at Shiina, Ibuki turned around and ran back to her dormitory, refusing to look back at Shiina no matter how much Shiina called out to her.

Seeing that Ibuki had been scared away, Shiina had no choice but to compromise with Amane.

"I'll make it up to you, right?"

"Hehe~ Now we're offering double the compensation!"

Amane gave Shiina a meaningful smile.

Shiina knew very well what was behind that smile.

"Why has the price gone up?"

"It's your fault for not cooperating with me, Hiyori."

Shiina was on the verge of tears. She was the one who had been bullied, but now she had to compensate Amane.

The soft object tapped twice quickly on Tianyin's lips, like a chick pecking at rice.

"Huh? Is that all?"

Before Amane could even taste it, she noticed that Shiina had already gotten up.

"We agreed on double compensation, so can you let me get up now?"

Amane, who had originally planned to bully Shiina a little more, felt embarrassed to continue when she saw Shiina's pitiful appearance. After all, it wouldn't be a good thing if Shiina, Megumi, and Suzune went too far.

"Alright then, huh? Masumi, where are you going?"

As soon as Tenon got up from the ground, she saw Kamuro carrying a backpack and looking like he was about to run away from home, so she couldn't help but ask.

"Is that even a question? Of course, we should apply for a change of dorm before you get carried away with your lust."

After Kamuro finished speaking, he walked towards the door, but was suddenly pounced on by Amane and hugged around the waist.

"Masumi, don't go! I can't live without Masumi!!"

"Hey! Let me go! I'm telling you right now, even if you keep pestering me, I won't compensate you!"

Fearing that Tianyin would cling to his divine chamber, he spoke first before Tianyin could.

"Bye Masumi~~"

After Amane told Kamuro that she wouldn't compensate her, she immediately let go of his hand and even waved at him. The speed at which she changed her expression almost made Kamuro think that what had just happened was an illusion.

"Tianyin, your change of expression is a bit too fast, isn't it?"

Even Kushida couldn't help but complain about Amane.

"Isn't it because Masumi wants to change dorms? I always respect everyone's wishes the most."

"Is that so? I have a feeling you just want to find a girl you can bully to move in?"

Kushida looked at Amane suspiciously.

"H-How could that be! I'm not that kind of shallow person, right, Masumi? Eh? Aren't you leaving?"

Kamuro, who had one foot already outside the door, suddenly turned around and went back into the dormitory.

"I just thought about it. If you have Kushida and Shiina to bully, you shouldn't be bullying me. If I were in a dorm with all the girls who are hard to get along with, life would be difficult. So I'll just have to make do for now. I'll just say I trust Sakayanagi's judgment."

While saying she trusted Sakayanagi's judgment, Kamuro's eyes kept looking at the dormitory wall, seemingly somewhat insincere. However, Kamuro staying was a good result for Amane. With Kamuro around, she could use him to carry out many things. Amane remembered that Sakayanagi had told her that she had already spoken to Kamuro, so Kamuro should listen to her, right?

"Don't worry, Masumi, I have a lot of principles~!"

……

"By the way... I remember we were assigned dorm rooms, right?"

Kamuro looked at the sleeping bag in front of him and turned to try to confirm with Amane that the dormitory from the daytime was real.

"Hmm, it seems like they were separated..."

As she was laying out her unique brown bear-shaped sleeping bag, Tianyin turned around and thought for a moment before speaking with certainty.

"Then why are we camping in the wild now?!"

Kamuro, in a fit of despair, pointed at the woods in front of him and began to complain loudly.

According to the school's arrangements, after Tianyin and the others underwent physical examinations in the afternoon, several instructors in charge of physical training suggested a warm-up welcome activity.

A one-kilometer mountain run isn't exactly easy, but it's not impossible either. However, for students who aren't physically fit, it's a nightmare. Keep in mind that at the end of the forest training camp, each person only had to run 1.2 kilometers in the relay test. Now, a special welcome event requires a full kilometer, which shows that the intensity of the physical training at the school in the coming days will be terrifying.

Perhaps sensing that everyone was reluctant, the instructor added that the first place winner would receive a surprise gift. This sparked the interest of many, including Tianyin.

With the bonus buff, Tianyin unsurprisingly won first place. The reward for first place was to choose a beautifully crafted luxury sleeping bag. Everyone in the audience burst into laughter. They worked so hard to win first place, and all they got was a sleeping bag? Even if it's luxurious, what difference does it make? They're going to stay in the dorms that night. Surely no one would sleep in a sleeping bag in the dorms?

So apart from a few people who had a good relationship with Tianyin, many people felt that the prize was somewhat unnecessary.

To everyone's surprise, they soon received a notice that they would be camping outdoors that night. The school provided tents and basic sleeping bags free of charge, but whether they would keep them warm or not was anyone's guess.

Tianyin's deluxe sleeping bag has become a unique item, making many people envious.

The school's appalling practice of not allowing students to stay in dormitories but instead making them camp outdoors has naturally drawn protests.

However, the school's response left them speechless while simultaneously resolving their low blood pressure issue.

"The school does provide and assign dormitories, but the school never said that you had to live in the dormitories. The dormitories are only provided for your convenience to store your personal belongings. As for the rule that boys cannot enter the girls' dormitory area at night, it is only to prevent the loss of items. You have assumed that the rest area is in the dormitory."

Chapter 88: I want to join the battle too!!

"There's nothing we can do about it, Masumi, just bear with it for now."

"But do we just have to endure it? We'll be living in tents for the next month."

Kamuro sat on her sleeping bag with dissatisfaction. It wasn't that she couldn't accept the camping arrangement. After all, she had experienced sleeping in a tent on a deserted island before, so Kamuro was definitely mentally prepared for sleeping in a tent and had a certain degree of adaptability.

The reason I felt dissatisfied was probably because the situation was completely different from that on the deserted island. On the deserted island, there was no choice; if you didn't sleep in a tent, you had to sleep in the open in the wild. The thought of being bitten by mosquitoes and having furry things crawling all over you in the middle of the night was something that a girl could absolutely not accept.

So even if they were dissatisfied, they still had to sleep in tents. But this time, the dormitory building was right in front of them, yet the school still forced all the students to sleep in tents. It was this psychological imbalance that caused Kamuro to become dissatisfied.

Tianyin scratched her head. Even she couldn't solve this situation. If only some students were sleeping in tents, it would be fine, but since everyone was sleeping in tents, the first-year students hadn't complained yet. If the second-year students were to voice their dissatisfaction first, they would definitely be seen as being pretentious.

Moreover, the theme of the next special exam is 'survival,' which means that wilderness survival is unavoidable, and living in a tent is inevitable. Having a sleeping bag is already considered a good privilege.

"Masumi, do you want to sleep in my sleeping bag? My sleeping bag is quite big..."

After Tianyin crawled into the sleeping bag, she found that her deluxe sleeping bag was a size larger than the regular sleeping bag. Even if two people slept together, it wouldn't feel crowded. But why would you design a sleeping bag with the inclination of multiple people sleeping together?

"Huh? What are you going to do with your sleeping bag, Tianyin? Are you going to sleep in mine instead?"

Kamuro handed the sleeping bag he was lying on to Amane with a look of disgust. Kamuro thought Amane would take the sleeping bag, but then he saw Amane gently pat the empty spot on his sleeping bag.

"Wait, Tianyin, you don't mean to make me..."

The thought that Amane was actually asking her to sleep in the same sleeping bag made Kamuro's heart race uncontrollably. Even though she had been laughing at Shiina during the day, when it came to the possibility that Amane might have feelings for her, Kamuro found herself unable to feel any refusal.

Hiding behind Sakayanagi and silently watching Amane, she knew better than anyone else that Amane's true gentleness was reserved only for that girl named Sakayanagi Arisu. But even knowing that Amane was a raging fire that could hurt people, she couldn't help but be the moth that flew into the fire...

"You're being so fussy. If Kamuro doesn't want to, I'll do it for you. I'm finding the sleeping bag uncomfortable anyway."

Just as Kamuro, blushing, was slowly making his way towards Amane's sleeping bag at a snail's pace, Kushida, who had been watching too long, jumped in first.

"Eh? Little Kikyo, you..."

Amane was surprised that Kushida made no attempt to hide their relationship in front of outsiders. As Kushida crawled into the sleeping bag, the originally spacious room was instantly filled to the brim. In particular, Kushida's impressive figure put considerable pressure on Amane's sleeping bag, causing Amane to experience the effects of face wash.

"What? Tianyin, don't you want me to sleep here?"

Kushida's eyes, which seemed capable of captivating souls, were already filled with allure.

Even though Amane knew that Kushida was deliberately putting on this act to seduce her, she still couldn't help but slowly hug Kushida.

"That's more like it! What's the point of playing games with them? Their coy attitude only makes things less enjoyable for you, Tianyin. I'm different; you can do whatever you want to me!"

After whispering sweet nothings in Amane's ear, Kushida didn't forget to gently bite Amane's earlobe.

Despite being no different from her peers in terms of age and appearance, Kushida exudes a sense of ripeness, making one want to take a bite out of her.

However, this scene was clearly beyond the comprehension of Kamuro's brain.

As a key member who helped Sakayanagi gather information about the students in each class in the early stages, Kamuro Masumi was definitely different from the ordinary students who were completely clueless about the situation in other classes.

She had an almost encyclopedic knowledge of the students in the Amane class, which was of utmost concern to Sakayanagi. It was only after Sakayanagi rebuilt the Disciplinary Committee that she realized that having Kamuro collect information by himself was too inefficient, resulting in a lot of information being past its optimal time for use. Therefore, she made Kamuro stop collecting information.

Aside from being unfamiliar with the information about Amane's class in recent months, Kamuro knew everything that had happened before, including the fact that Hirata and Karuizawa were a fake couple, that Hirata even covered for Karuizawa to go on a date with Amane at the restaurant, that Sato confessed to Amane and was rejected, then chose Ayanokouji, who was his backup, and that Ayanokouji used Sato to compete with Horikita for the right to speak among the girls in the class. Kamuro could recite all these secrets like the back of his hand.

Because she knew Amane so well, she knew exactly what kind of girl Amane was. That's why she kept her distance as much as possible when interacting with Amane. Firstly, she was afraid of being marked by Sakayanagi, and secondly, she knew that Amane only opened her heart to a very few girls, and only enjoyed the bodies of the girls who were offered to her. Damn! Isn't that a total scumbag?

wrong!

Kamuro shook his head slightly. This wasn't about criticizing Amane; in fact, Kushida, who was standing next to Amane, was the one with more problems!

Kamuro knew that Kushida's initial persona was to want to be friends with everyone, which included deliberately collecting each other's dark history, secrets that only close friends could share, and evaluations of other classmates. Later, after Kushida became an enemy of Horikita for some unknown reason, Kushida even tried to threaten Amane into expelling Horikita by exposing everyone's secrets to throw the whole class into chaos.

Although it was Sato who overstepped his bounds and caused Kushida to target him, this does not mean that Kushida and Horikita have reconciled. Rather, it seems more like Kushida launched an indiscriminate attack on everyone in Amane Class after he had given up.

So what's going on now? Kushida, Horikita's mortal enemy, is actually nestled happily in Amane's arms...

hiss.

The entertainment industry is too chaotic!!
