Chapter 50: Takioto Kousuke

Ludi’s POV
———————
I’ve always had a faint feeling that bad rumors are circulating around Kousuke. There are probably some who took care not to let such rumors reach my ear but since there’s also someone who told me the truth, their efforts become meaningless.
I wonder if it is just their consideration? I can only think of their actions as their effort to not be the target of my wrath though.
Kousuke himself is also in the wrong. Even though he is not good at studying, he still skips classes and rarely shows up at the afternoon lessons. Certainly, it should be normal for serious students to get annoyed by his usual carefree attitude.
However, even when you understood Kousuke’s reason, it would still be difficult to solve this problem.
“I don’t have a reason to attend the afternoon class in the first place, right? Isn’t it normal for people who focus themselves on close-quarter combat to skip afternoon classes and go to a dojo or join some circle inside the campus? I just use that time for dungeon diving. Sometimes I just go visit a sweets shop though. And the only classes I skipped are all the classes I am good at. There shouldn’t be a problem if I used that time to train right?”
That’s certainly true. There are more students who skipped the afternoon classes than I thought. And he only skips the classes that he is good at like mathematics and physical education. But if you are so smart at difficult subjects like math, why are you an idiot enough to think that Yoshitsune and Benkei were a man?
No, let’s leave it at that. The current problem is his reputation.
“The problem is that he is too conspicuous.”
Kousuke’s friend, Hijiri Iori said so.
“I don’t want to offend Trefle-san but I think the problem stemmed from the L L L (Love Love Ludivine), those the imperial knight order (Fanclub).”
“Yeah, I think so too.”
Katou Rina agreed with Iori-kun’s words.
“Basically, it just jealousy, you know, jealousy! If there’s a guy that you are jealous of, of course, you will want to find out about him. There are people like that right? Those who are just being a sore loser. There are even those who judge people whether they are good enough to be around the person they like you know?”
Her words gave me quite a mixed feeling.
“Takioto-kun doesn’t seem to care much about it as usual but it seems our classmates that are on good terms with him got angry instead.”
Isn’t that like,
“Like we are feeling now, right?”
Didn’t he think about the people that are worried about him? No, does he aware that we are worried about him in the first place? He can be so dense at times after all.
“If people know even a fraction of the training he has been doing, other people wouldn’t even dare to argue with him though.”
Rina-san frowned at my words.
“I don’t know Kousuke that well but is he really working so hard?”
“Yeah, our acquaintance in the public moral committee even said that he is working so hard that it felt abnormal. A hard worker among hard workers. He never complains about the basic training and keeps repeating it like a mad man. He focused on producing the result to the extent that she felt uncomfortable with. According to her praise, that is.”
“It sounded like you are pulling my leg though…..”
“He said something like [It’s much better than doing an RTA in a shitty game] or so.”
He used some words I don’t understand, so I don’t know what he meant by that but it seems Rina-san and Iori-kun do not understand him either.
“Well, if even us don’t understand his reason then there’s no way people who don’t know him would ever understand right?”
“Right. I only know the usual Takioto-kun after all.”
Iori-kun agrees with Rina-san’s words. I don’t know why he is like that at school, even though he is always seriously training and diligently studying at home too.
“At home, he is always—–”
“At home?”
“Home?”
I clear my throat.
“He seems like the type to act like that at home too, right?”
I forgot that I was keeping the part where we are living together a secret.
“?”
Iori has a question mark popping out if his head but Rina-san raised her brows. “Be careful around Katrina because she had a sharp intuition”, or so Kousuke warned me but it seems like I don’t really have to worry about her.
“I wonder what he thinks about all these rumors?”
I intentionally change the subject and the first person to jump on it is Iori-kun.
“Ah, you see. He looked like he doesn’t care about it one bit. I told him about this at lunch but he just carefreely eating his parfait deliciously. He even said [Sorry, I made you worried.] and bought a parfait for me, you know. It was so delicious.”
Why did the topic shift to the parfait instead of Kousuke?
I thought as I watch Iori-kun speaking with sparkling eyes. Rather than the fact that He appreciated his concern, isn’t it more like he couldn’t stand Iori-kun’s glutton eyes?
…………It’s not like that, right?
