Chapter 57 Taboo Romance
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Based on Aki’s knowledge of Hasegawa Chisato¹, exposing her identity likely wouldn’t carry a life-threatening risk, but it would certainly cause her to become wary. If he wanted to draw closer to her or pursue her in the future, the difficulty level would rise significantly.
The appearance of Hasegawa Chisato reshaped his understanding of this chaotic world once again. At the same time, because his strength had grown, his mindset-which had unknowingly become inflated-returned to being steady and composed. Although an ordinary yellow-haired punk² no longer posed much of a threat to him, that level of strength was completely insufficient if he wanted to conquer a true goddess like Hasegawa Chisato.
After confirming Hasegawa Chisato’s identity, Aki ruled out any connection between her and Miyajima Sakura’s transfer. That could be considered a harvest in itself… Watching Hasegawa Chisato work seriously, Aki couldn’t help but let his mind wander. (I wonder where Naruse Mio, the daughter of the previous Demon King, is right now.) Come to think of it, (Are the Underworlds from two different worlds the same place here…?) Rias’s older brother and Shitori Sona’s older sister were both among the current Four Great Devils.
If Naruse Mio’s father was also one of the Four Great Devils, would they all know each other? No, that’s not right… Aki remembered that Naruse Mio didn’t know her own heritage until her foster parents were killed and that bratty, super-strong succubus came to her door; only then did she learn her true identity.
The more he thought about it, the more confused he felt. Back when he watched the series, his attention had been caught by all the snowy-white breasts, long legs, and sexy outfits, so he wasn’t very clear on the original factions and power dynamics of these two worlds.
Now that they were mixed together, Aki felt even more dazed. After staring blankly at the ceiling for a while, his whole body relaxed and he simply gave up trying to solve it. (There’s no use in making wild guesses here. If I really want to know, I’d be better off asking Rias directly.) If he were bold enough, he could even directly ask Hasegawa Chisato, who was one of the Ten Core Gods³.
Rias might not have access to certain matters yet, but that definitely wasn’t the case for Hasegawa Chisato. Whether in terms of strength or status, Hasegawa Chisato was among the very top tier. There was nothing she couldn’t reach, only things she chose not to.
However, Aki ultimately did not ask. Even if he got an answer, it wouldn’t help his current situation in the slightest. Rather than being curious about those big shots, it was better to seize the time and speed up his own development. He was only B-rank; ahead of him were A-rank, S-class, and Demon King class. There were many stronger ranks beyond the Demon King class. Aki didn’t know the specific levels, but he remembered that in the later stages, even the Demon King class didn’t count as more than elite mobs.
”Ring! Ring!”
The bell signaling the end of class rang, interrupting Aki’s wandering thoughts. Seeing that Hasegawa Chisato truly had no intention of questioning him further, the weight in his heart temporarily lifted. Aki got out of bed and walked over to Hasegawa Chisato’s side. He gazed at Hasegawa Chisato’s exquisite face and lovely figure, his eyes growing heated.
”Hasegawa-sensei, I’ve finished resting.”
”Good. Be careful on the way back.” Hasegawa Chisato smiled slightly. Ignoring Aki’s burning gaze, she gave a reminder like a normal teacher. “If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, come back immediately.”
Aki nodded, pausing to admire the charming view between Hasegawa Chisato’s thighs for a moment. Before leaving, he offered a kind reminder. “Hasegawa-sensei, remember not to cross your legs so high next time.”
Hasegawa Chisato froze for a second, then calmly lowered her long legs. She had only recently transformed into the appearance of an ordinary human, so she occasionally overlooked certain details. Fortunately, many students usually came by, and to maintain her image as a teacher, she always sat or stood properly.
Aside from Aki, who had snuck in to slack off during class, no third person had seen it. Strangely, when Hasegawa Chisato thought about her skirt’s interior being seen by Aki, she surprisingly didn’t feel angry. There was only a slight hint of bashful annoyance. Aki clearly could have told her sooner, but he had waited until he’d seen enough and was about to leave before saying anything.
”What an interesting little guy…” Watching Aki’s retreating back, the corners of Hasegawa Chisato’s lips hooked up slightly, revealing an expression of piqued curiosity.
She had completely sealed her own strength and quietly come to the human world; no one besides herself was supposed to know. Yet, Aki had seen through her true identity in a single word, and his eyes held a strange sense of longing, passion, and familiarity. Even after being intimidated by her aura, the heat in his eyes hadn’t faded; instead, it had become more naked and honest. (I wonder where this little guy gets his courage…)
After leaving the infirmary, Aki went straight to the staff office. Since there was no better way for the moment, it was better to directly ask the teacher responsible for Miyajima Sakura.
”Knock, knock!”
”Please come in.”
”Excuse me, is Sato-sensei here?”
”Sato-sensei, a student is looking for you.”
Before long, a woman with glasses wearing a black professional suit approached Aki. Her looks were fairly cute and her figure was decent, but in Aki’s eyes-having just been dazzled by Hasegawa Chisato-she seemed merely average. Sato Yumi⁴ gazed at the handsome, clean-cut boy before her and asked curiously, “That’s me. Is there something you need?”
After observing carefully and confirming that this glasses-wearing woman wasn’t some unlucky adult-video-style female teacher, Aki finally spoke. “Does Sato-sensei know where Miyajima Sakura-senpai transferred to?”
”Oh, it’s this matter again…” Sato Yumi muttered under her breath. “And here I thought I’d finally get to have a taboo romance with a student today…”
Aki raised an eyebrow. Ignoring the second half of Sato Yumi’s sentence, he asked, “Again? Who else has asked Sato-sensei about this?”
”Oh, you heard that?” Sato Yumi’s face turned red. “I was just making a jo-“
”I have no interest in your fetishes, Teacher, and I won’t go around spreading rumors.” Aki waved his hand to cut off her explanation. “So, can you answer my previous question now?”
”What an unromantic and impolite little hottie…” Sato Yumi was a bit annoyed and started muttering to herself again involuntarily. Aki rolled his eyes in exasperation, unsure if Sato Yumi really had a habit of talking to herself or if she was doing it on purpose.
”Ahem!”
”Fine, then.” Sato Yumi stopped her quiet grumbling and let out a sigh. “Because Miyajima-san’s transfer was very rushed, she didn’t have time to say goodbye to anyone. Several people who were close to her have come to me to ask this same question.”
”Who specifically?”
”Most were her friends, classmates, or people from the Kendo Club. Sato Yumi glanced at Aki and gave a small huff. “And a small portion were admirers like you.”
Miyajima Sakura was very popular at Kuoh Academy. Although she couldn’t compare to Rias Gremory or Himejima Akeno, her title as a genius kendo beauty attracted a lot of attention. Aki didn’t bother to correct the misunderstanding that he was an admirer. What he wanted to do wasn’t much different from pursuing her, anyway.
”I see. So, does Sato-sensei know where she transferred to?”
”Of course I know.” Before Aki could press her, Sato Yumi continued, “But I can’t say. The school has regulations. If you really want to know, go ask at the Miyajima household yourself.”
”Then would Sato-sensei please tell me the address of the Miyajima household?” Aki blinked. Rather than finding out which school Miyajima Sakura had transferred to, he had originally leaned toward going directly to her home. A transfer wasn’t something Miyajima Sakura could decide on her own; her parents were the key. Furthermore… Aki wanted to see that mother of hers.
Sato Yumi gave Aki a strange look. “As an admirer of Miyajima, you actually don’t know where her house is?”
”Eh? Is the Miyajima household address that easy to find out?”
”The Miyajima family runs a kendo dojo. It’s quite famous with many students; you can find out just by asking around a little.” Facing Sato Yumi’s suspicious gaze, Aki shrugged. “In that case, Sato-sensei should just tell me directly. It’ll save me the trouble of asking others.”
After thinking it over, Sato Yumi decided this wasn’t something worth keeping secret, so she told Aki the location and name of the dojo at Miyajima Sakura’s home.
”Thank you, Sato-sensei.”
Aki waved his hand, feeling pleased. Sometimes being a bit aggressive was good. If he’d known it was this easy, why would he have overthought it so much? Fortunately, it wasn’t too late.
”By the way.” After taking two steps, Aki turned back and stared at Sato Yumi with a bright smile. “If Sato-sensei really wants a taboo romance, I can help out~”
