Volume 5 Chapter 27 New Teeth
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
”Class Rep! Is it really okay for you to be here already?”
The next morning, as soon as Mizobe Aya entered the classroom wearing a mask, Hayase Misaki rushed over to her side, her voice tight with concern. Aya’s teeth had been shattered so badly; Misaki hadn’t expected her to show up for school this early.
Misaki didn’t know, however, that Aya’s rapid return was largely due to Yaginuma Asami’s healing magic. Without that magical first aid, a standard hospital would have taken a significant amount of time to treat the damage.
”Yeah, I’ll manage. I have to compete in the tournament, after all,” Aya said.
”…Class Rep,” Misaki whispered.
Winning that tournament – Misaki, who had faced tennis with the same life-or-death intensity, could feel the sheer weight of the resolve Aya was betting on. The determination was so clear it was painful.
”Even so, I’ll be on a modified training menu until I’m fully healed,” Aya added.
”Until you’re fully healed… huh. Did Takanashi do this?” Misaki asked.
”Hayase-san, you seem to know a lot,” Aya replied.
”Well, yeah. I’m one of the people he saved, too,” Misaki said.
The word “heal” told Misaki everything she needed to know. This wasn’t about dental implants or prosthetics; it was about restoring what was lost to its original state. That kind of miracle was impossible without the supernatural power of a Gift¹. The two girls naturally turned their gaze toward the seat of Hirose, who had not yet arrived at school.

”- Wait, is Okada-kun² absent today?”
One of the girls who always hovered around Okada Rikuya murmured in confusion. The question remained unanswered as their female homeroom teacher entered the room for morning announcements.
Her expression was uncharacteristically solemn. She wasn’t usually the bubbly type, but the air today was heavy with a different kind of tension. The classroom fell silent almost instantly.
Once homeroom began, the teacher opened with a blunt announcement.
”The truth is going to come out eventually. The school can’t keep this under wraps forever.”
The classroom was swallowed by a stifling silence.
”Gifts must never be misused. You all know this. Looking at the recent news regarding criminal guilds, you should all understand the consequences.”
The teacher paused. Her face etched with the bitterness of having to say these words to her own class.
”- Okada has been arrested. I believe… you can guess why.”
For a moment, the students sat in stunned silence, unable to process what they had just heard. Then, as the meaning slowly permeated the room, a frantic whisper began to spread. Rikuya had openly bragged about his work as an adventurer. Naturally, he had talked about his Gift, too.
’Iron Knuckle’³.
The association was sickeningly simple – misusing that power meant only one thing: violence.
Naturally, every eye in the room turned toward Aya and her mask. No one said it aloud, but the reason was undeniable.
Aya lowered her head slightly. The cause of Rikuya’s arrest was the injury he had given her.
- But more than that, what filled her chest was the certain realization that she had been able to protect Takanashi Hirose.
And now, Hirose was using the power of his Gift for her sake.
That realization gave Aya the strength to slowly raise her head. She didn’t have time to be caught up in thoughts of Rikuya. She had her swimming. To win, there were countless things she needed to do.
- Okada Rikuya’s arrest.
At this stage, his final punishment wasn’t yet clear. But after an arrest like that, there was only one possible conclusion: expulsion. The girls who had once looked at Rikuya with adoration quietly began to look away.

”Class Rep, don’t blame yourself, okay?”
Hirose said the words as he activated ‘Divine Dental Restoration’⁴, his fingers sliding against the inside of Aya’s mouth.
”…Ngh… Fuahu…”
With his fingers occupying her mouth, Aya couldn’t form proper words. But Hirose could feel her nodding in agreement.
”It’s my fault for setting Okada-kun off. You didn’t do anything wrong, Class Rep.”
”Fwah, fah! Fah!” Aya muffled.
”Haha, I have no idea what you’re saying,” Hirose said with a light chuckle.
He guessed she was saying, “It’s not Takanashi-kun’s fault, either.”
This was the sixth and final day of treatment at Hirose’s house. Every time his fingers entered her mouth, making a mess of her senses, Aya told herself she’d get used to it. She never did.
Because the moment she began to suckle on his fingertips, her mind simply started to dissolve.
(No, I’m losing it again… Takanashi-kun’s fingers… they’re so good… I want to lick them, I want to swallow them… God, my saliva is all over him… I brushed so hard today, but… more, I need more…)
She moved her head instinctively, taking his fingers deeper. The soft, wet sounds of her mouth filled the room. Her body flushed with heat; her thoughts became a soft, white cloud. The fingers in front of her were a delicacy she couldn’t stop devouring.
She had trained desperately for three weeks, pushing through the stress of being out of the pool. She was an elite athlete; she was strong. But against the ‘Recoil’⁵ of the treatment, she was defenseless. By this sixth time, her inner desires had clawed to the surface. She wanted more than just his fingers.
”Class Rep, we’re finished,” Hirose said.
”Fuwaa…?” Aya drifted.
Aya blinked, coming back from a dreamlike state. Hirose was already wiping his wet fingers with a tissue.
”…If… I get a good result,” Aya started.
”ん?”
”If I win… will you give me… a reward?”
”E-Eh? Class Rep…?” Hirose stammered.
”Is that… not okay?” Aya asked, her voice trembling.
Flushing a deep crimson, Aya barely realized what she was saying. The impulse was unstoppable. She was barely resisting the urge to lunge at him.
”Umm… yeah. Actually, I have permission,” Hirose said.
”Permission…?”
”You don’t need to worry about it, Class Rep.”
To be honest, that “permission” was practically an official endorsement for cheating. But the recoil was an unavoidable part of the cure. And between his new status as a Dungeon Master⁶ and his own exploding libido, Hirose was finding that Hibiki and the others weren’t enough to keep him satisfied.
”Then, if I really win -“
When Aya finally reached the sanctuary of her home, the memory of her boldness made her want to scream. Hirose had a girlfriend and a circle of beautiful women. And yet, she had practically begged for him.
”But… if I actually win…”
She pictured the future beyond those words. She pictured him. And as she sought her own release alone that night, the phantom sensation was the most intense she had ever known.
* * *
The air flowed into her lungs perfectly.
The next morning, Aya woke up in her bed with a strange sense of clarity. She stood before the full-length mirror and slowly opened her mouth, testing a smile.
”No way…”
There they were – her teeth.
The teeth that had been shattered were now perfectly aligned, white and flawless. Her bite was perfect. Her mouth felt incredibly comfortable.
”They’re… even more beautiful than before…”
She traced them with trembling fingers. They were real. Not implants, not porcelain – her own teeth, reborn.
”Haha… hahaha… Takanashi-kun, you’re amazing. You’re incredible…”
She could go back. She could swim. The three weeks of agonizing patience had finally paid off. Tears of pure relief began to fall.
* * *
”Whoa! Class Rep?!”
At school, Misaki caught sight of Aya without her mask and gasped. The moment Aya spoke, the transformation was obvious.
”It’s incredible, isn’t it? They grew back even better than they were,” Aya said.
”I’m so jealous!” Misaki cried.
”You should ask Takanashi-kun to do it for you. Though you’ll need his permission,” Aya said.
”I want to! I mean, looking at how beautiful your teeth are…!” Misaki exclaimed.
(Note: Misaki would later end up begging Hirose for ‘Divine Dental Restoration,’ but that’s a story for another time.)
”- Takanashi-kun. It’s amazing. They really grew back,” Aya said.
”I’m glad. Now the Class Rep is officially back in action!” Hirose replied.
”Yeah. Thank you so much!”
The moment Hirose arrived at school, Aya ran to him first. She pulled him into the hallway away from prying eyes and thanked him over and over. Finally, Aya returned to the water. With less than a week until the tournament, she threw herself into her final sprint of training.
