But Akane Nanao kept her word and never stepped into the club again. Not only did she not come to the club, she also did not look for him. This made Katarase Sho more and more frustrated and resentful. Akane, is it too much to suddenly become so heartless?

No, this shouldn't be Qian's intention. She's not that kind of girl. It must have been Mu Xiaoxiao who instigated it!

Finally, on Thursday, Katase Sho found his chance and cornered Nanao Akane by the shoe cabinet. Seeing that Mu Xiaoxiao wasn't there, his courage instantly grew. "Akane..."

But standing in front of the girl he liked, he suddenly became speechless, not knowing what to say. Seeing Katase Shoya scratching his head, Nanao Akane sighed softly, "Shoya-kun, is something wrong?"

"I..." Remembering Coach Dong Gang's teachings, he finally composed himself. "I'm here to apologize."

Huh? Akane Nanao was taken aback.

Katase Sho was also very sincere, "About what happened before, it was my fault... Akane, I shouldn't have distrusted you. I won't object to your leaving the club anymore. As for that Mu Xiaoxiao, he... he has nothing to do with me. Akane, can we make up?"

Beneath his sincere exterior lay fangs about to be revealed, but Nanao Akane couldn't see it. She smiled with relief, "Shoya-kun, it's good that you think that way. As for making up, of course, it's possible, but... I hope you can stay away from that guy, Higashi Tsuyoshi."

“I know I won’t approach him.”

Seeing that Katase Sho also trusted her so much, Nanao Akane was very happy, thinking that he had come to his senses.

"I've been very sad and have been thinking a lot these past few days because you haven't been talking to me, Akane. It's so good that you can accept my apology now." This person spoke in a teasy tone, but Akane didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

The girl's smile became even brighter.

"Can we have lunch together tomorrow? I'd like to bring you a bento box as an apology."

"No need to be so polite, it's nothing serious. But Katase-kun, you can cook?" Nanao Akane asked in surprise.

"I don't know how to do that, but I can learn."

"Haha, I knew it. Actually, Mu-kun can't cook either. I feel like there aren't many guys who can cook. It's okay if Xiang-kun can't."

No, no, no, aren't all the gentle male protagonists in Japanese light novels also excellent cooks?

Upon hearing his crush mention Mu Xiaoxiao again, Katase Shoya's expression darkened, but quickly returned. "This—"

"Let's eat at the cafeteria tomorrow. Should we invite Mu Jun and the others along?"

Katase Shoya's lips twitched violently. "Akane, we don't need to call him anymore. I... I think the two of us are enough."

"OK then."

Akane waved goodbye to Katase Shoya, whom he had promised to meet. After she left, Katase Shoya watched the girl's departing figure, his hand tightly gripping the potion in his hand, his usually hesitant and conflicted eyes now filled with determination.

Tomorrow, just waiting for tomorrow...

--------

The next day, noon.

As expected, Nanao Akane didn't bring Mu Xiaoxiao with her. If she had, Katase really wouldn't have dared to make a move. The beautiful girl with chestnut hair came to the cafeteria alone, and she didn't even make a bento box for this reason.

just.

"Shoya-kun, why are you here?"

The meeting place was behind the cafeteria building. When Katase saw him holding the food he had already bought, he was stunned. "Why didn't you eat in the cafeteria?"

"Akane, there are too many people in the cafeteria, and... I want to be alone with you, is that alright?" Katase Shoya was nervous. He had already added something to the food in his hand. As long as Akane ate it, she would... Thinking of this, Katase Shoya could no longer hide his nervousness and couldn't help but reveal it.

Akane noticed this too, but she mistakenly thought that Shoya-kun was shy and nervous because he wanted to be alone with her. The girl brushed a strand of hair that was being blown by the wind behind her ear. "Being alone... Shoya-kun, you really are... Well then, although this place is a bit remote, it is a good place to eat quietly."

The girl did not refuse and accepted the bento box from Katase without any suspicion in her mind.

Perhaps this was Dong Gang's calculation. If it were something given by this perverted coach, no matter what kind of Seven-Tails it was, she wouldn't eat it. But when it was Katase Shoya, her vigilance instantly dropped. Although... the moment she took it, a flash of inspiration appeared in the girl's mind, as if Mu Jun had said something.

But before she could think about it further, she was interrupted by Katase Shoya.

"Qian, I'd rather make you a bento myself, but... right now I can only buy it from the cafeteria. You don't mind, do you?"

Akane Nanao's thoughts were interrupted. "Of course I don't mind. To be honest, the food in the cafeteria is actually better, it's just too expensive."

The girl stuck out her tongue playfully. "Otherwise, I'd like to eat in the cafeteria every day too. Well then... I'll start eating—"

The girl's little gestures made Katase Sho's heart itch. Akane, what a beautiful girl. Such a good girl should not be taken away by someone like Mu Xiaoxiao. As long as lunch break is over, she will understand my feelings.

All of this is for you, Akane.

Seeing her eat the rice with a smile on her face, Katase Shoya's heart almost jumped out of his throat. She ate it, she really ate it.

rustling --

He didn't even notice the sounds coming from the nearby bushes, his eyes glued to the beautiful girl beside him.

"Aren't you going to eat?"

"I won't eat it, I'll just watch you eat it."

"I feel really embarrassed by this... um... oh?"

After only a few bites, the abnormality in her body stunned Nanao Akane. Just as the girl was about to speak, her calm suddenly turned into a raging fire, bursting forth in her chest and quickly engulfing her entire body. In the short span of a breath, a strong desire surged into her brain, making her cheeks turn bright red.

pat!

The wooden chopsticks fell.

"I... what... what's going on? Why is my head, my body... changing..."

It's hot, so hot.

It's not just hot, it's also very itchy... My body feels empty and wants to be filled.

No! This feeling is—

Food spilled on the floor, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Nanao Akane's forehead. Leaning against the wall, she stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the calm boy beside her, as if she were seeing him for the first time, her eyes filled with unfamiliarity. "Shoya-kun, you...it's you?"

“Akane, I didn’t want this to happen either,” Katase Sho said, feeling a mix of unease, guilt, and excitement, as well as the anticipation of getting what he wanted. “But you’ve been too bewitched by that Mu Xiaoxiao. You’ve been misled by her! To get you back to normal, I have no choice but to use this method.”

"This is all for your own good, Qian. You can understand me, right?"

Akane Nanao's pupils dilated in shock as she stared at the boy in front of her, who was breathing rapidly. Suddenly, she felt a wave of nausea and vomiting. This boy, whom she had once liked, now only disgusted her.

She couldn't vomit; only waves of pleasure washed over her. She could only barely maintain a semblance of consciousness by squeezing her legs together, curling up in pain. "Get away!! Don't touch me!!"

"Akane?" Katase Sho didn't understand her strong reaction. "Why? Don't you like me? I like you too. If that's the case, it's okay to do this kind of thing, right? Why are you refusing?"

"Disgusting!! Ugh... Ugh..."

The girl's body grew hotter and hotter, and she felt increasingly uncomfortable. She had countless things she wanted to say, and she was filled with anger and wanted to fiercely curse Katase Shoya in front of her. However, the effects of the drug made her speech difficult, and she managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth while breathing heavily.

The boy she once liked now only evoked anger, disgust, and rejection. She wanted to question and berate him, but all those words could be summed up in one sentence.

“Shoya Katase, you said something very true before…”

"Compared to you, Mu Jun is indeed better. You, you can't even compare to him in one inch."

That very sentence broke his defenses.

"Akane—why!"

Behind a wall not far away, a man and a woman witnessed the entire scene.

Saki Anri: "That guy is really disgusting... I can't stand him anymore and I want to teach him a lesson!"

“Wait, there’s someone who hasn’t appeared yet,” Mu Xiaoxiao pulled her back. “He’s just someone who’s being used, a stupid and pathetic guy.”

Therefore, there's a reason why they become victims; they deserve to be used as pawns so easily.

"How did you know something like this would happen here?" Anri asked her boyfriend curiously.

"intuition--"

Chapter 226 Little One, She Really Appeared

Katase Shoya's defenses continued to crumble.

He looked at Nanao Akane with disbelief and a sense of vulnerability, the girl he liked, who clearly liked him too, now staring at him with eyes full of disgust, hatred, rejection, and nausea, as if she were looking at scum.

Katase Shoya trembled as he looked into that unfamiliar gaze. Why had this girl, with whom he shared mutual affection, become like this, so unfamiliar...? In a fleeting moment, he realized that, as expected, it was still because he had been bewitched by Mu Xiaoxiao.

"Akane, it's okay, I'll get you back to normal soon. After we... after we've had sex, you'll know how I feel about you!" Katase Shoya said, unable to contain his excitement as he stared at the girl's body. Even though she was completely covered up by her uniform, her figure was just too good.

It made him unable to resist fantasizing about the intimacy that would follow.

Katase Shoya's actions made her feel unfamiliar. Nanao Akane kept retreating until she leaned against the wall. She was now almost relying on willpower to control her body's abnormality. And Mu Jun... Mu Xiaoxiao's face flashed through her mind from time to time, as well as the bits and pieces of time she had spent with him these past few days.

The fragments kept flashing through her mind, which gave the girl the motivation to persevere.

She clenched her pearly white teeth, her small hands gripping the clothes at her chest tightly, her eyes filled with disappointment in Katase Shoya. She had nothing more to say to him. This Katase Shoya was no longer the person she knew. Nanao Akane was very disappointed.

But I wasn't that disappointed.

Perhaps, as Mu Jun said, my liking for him was just a vague feeling, and the emotion wasn't particularly deep. Compared to disappointment and sadness, the girl was now more angry and more afraid.

Can I escape this time? My body feels so...uncomfortable right now. If I really can't escape, what if Katase Shoya...? I absolutely don't want that! If I really have to lose my innocence and purity, if it's unavoidable, she'd rather it be that person...

But her physical desires were intensifying. The emptiness and discomfort made her long legs tremble. Her flushed face and heavy breathing excited Katase Sho, who was approaching. As she watched him get closer, Nanao Akane's eyes welled up with tears.

"Swish—"

Suddenly, a person emerged from behind the bushes, interrupting the two. Nana Akane's eyes widened. It wasn't Mu Xiaoxiao who came to the rescue, but a man wearing a tank top that revealed the muscles on his arms. The moment she saw him, Nana Akane's pupils shrank. She understood. Sure enough, this was the person who was plotting behind the scenes!

That bastard, that piece of trash!!

"Coach Dong Gang?"

"Shoya-kun, well done! I didn't expect you to actually succeed," Coach Higashi walked out while clapping, then smiled teasingly at Nanao Akane, "Nanao-kun, you really let your guard down. Is it because Katase-kun is different? You actually ate what someone gave you without any precautions. That won't do."

crunch.

It was the sound of teeth grinding. Nanao Akane managed to squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth, "You... you're in cahoots..."

"No, no, no, you're wrong. With Katase's abilities, he's not worthy of colluding with me. Although he's easy to guide and tempt, he's ultimately just a tool, a tool I use."

"Wh...what? Coach, what did you say?"

Katase Shoya was stunned.

"Didn't you hear me? Shoya-kun, you're just a tool I'm using. Otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome to take down the Seven-Tails. Thanks to you... So now that it's time to accept the spoils, I naturally can't give them to you. Shoya-kun, it's time for you to leave. Of course, I'm not a devil who kicks you away after you've served your purpose. You can stand back and watch, watch your favorite girl being played with by me. When I'm happy, maybe I can let you have some fun too—hahaha!!"

"you……"

His brain was buzzing, and Katase Sho stared in disbelief at his beloved coach. His eyes trembled violently, and he instinctively turned to Nanao Akane, but the girl he liked didn't even glance at him. Her completely indifferent face made him lose all strength and collapse to the ground.

The light in her eyes faded, and a hint of despair finally crept into her expression. But neither Akane Nanao nor the two people secretly watching felt any sympathy. Anri Shiki even thought to herself, "What Xiao Xiao said really makes sense."

That guy deserved to be the victim. Seeing this, I finally understand what the victim in short stories means. In that case, wouldn't Kofukuji Takaya also be... well, never mind, I don't want to think about it.

No one sympathized with Katase Shoya's plight. Only Higashi Tsuyoshi squeezed out two crocodile tears, and then threw the distraught Katase aside.
