Chapter 164: Control Yourself
The two ended their conversation and Suzune Horikita left.
Kaoru Mitoma had originally wanted to approach Mio Ibuki again, but the girl was faster, disappearing with her tray in the blink of an eye.
Left with no choice, he quickly finished his lunch and then leisurely made his way to the movie theater.
It was midday and the theater was sparsely populated with only a few students.
The staff introduced Kaoru Mitoma to a few films, all of which were pre-loaded before the cruise set sail, with no new releases available.
After all, it was a cruise ship theater, so Kaoru Mitoma didn't complain too much.
He walked straight into the screening room and casually sat in the back row, watching the male lead flirt with a hostess on the screen before ending up in bed.
An hour later, the credits rolled and the entire experience was uneventful, except for the annoying couple in the bottom right corner.
Kaoru Mitoma returned to the deck, gazing at the azure sea, when suddenly a hand reached out beside him, pressing a cold drink against his cheek.
"Hey, what are you thinking about here?" Masumi Kamuro stood next to him, holding two cans of chilled drinks, seemingly annoyed by the coldness.
"Take one quickly."
Kaoru Mitoma took one of the cans from her hand, his fingertips and palm already feeling the chill, with cold droplets running down to his wrist.
"Why didn't you get a bag?"
"Where would I find a bag here? I bought these from the vending machine over there."
"Just put it on the railing."
"What if it falls?" Masumi Kamuro tried placing it on the railing and surprisingly, it didn't fall.
"Huh, it works. I thought it would slide off."
"Didn't they say it was free?"
"Yeah, as long as you show your student ID, the machine updates the status."
It seemed this cruise ship wasn't just temporarily rented by the school, it's likely that they frequently use these facilities.
Kaoru Mitoma was about to open a drink when he was immediately stopped by Masumi Kamuro.
"Don't touch that, it's Sakayanagi's."
However, with a crisp sound, Masumi Kamuro fell silent.
"My good buddy, it seems you've gotten used to running errands for Sakayanagi" Kaoru Mitoma said, taking a sip of the drink.
It was sweet and sour—was this the flavor Sakayanagi Arisu liked?
"Can you stop calling me 'buddy' all the time?" Masumi Kamuro corrected him.
"I'm a girl, I don't have what you have down there, and I'm not close with you."
"Even without what I have down there, you're still my good buddy" Kaoru Mitoma chuckled.
Her personality wasn't like most girls; he rarely saw her shy.
"Are you gay or something?" Masumi Kamuro asked suspiciously.
"I've heard that many gay men use jokes like that to reveal their true sexual orientation."
Kaoru Mitoma expression remained blank.
"If you want to know the answer, I can prove it to you right now." His gaze fell on Masumi Kamuro chest.
Compared to other girls her age, Masumi Kamuro seemed much taller.
At that moment, what came toward him wasn't just the scent of the sea but also the faint fragrance of a young girl.
"Disgusting" Masumi Kamuro said disdainfully, though she didn't stop him from looking.
"I remember I can make a request from you now, right?" Kaoru Mitoma recalled the agreement they had made not long ago.
Masumi Kamuro also remembered and glared at him, irritably said.
"Why drag me into your rivalry with Sakayanagi? If you have the guts, go find her and fulfill the bet!"
"She's already fulfilled the bet."
In an instant, Masumi Kamuro eyes widened, unable to hide her shock.
"W-when did that happen?" she stammered.
"The day the exams ended," Kaoru Mitoma replied.
Masumi Kamuro was even more shocked.
Had those two been sneaking around behind her back all this time?
"Why didn't you tell me? What exactly did you two do? Hurry up and tell me, what did you do to her? Did you take pictures?"
It seemed she was even more excited than Kaoru Mitoma, her eyes practically sparkling.
"We didn't do much, it was very mild, just like what you agreed to," Kaoru Mitoma said, now considering whether he should learn chess.
Masumi Kamuro looked at him with a strange expression.
"Did you really lick her?"
"I'm not a foot fetishist," Kaoru Mitoma defended himself.
"She moved her foot too quickly, so I had to agree."
Masumi Kamuro patted his shoulder, comforting him.
"No need to explain too much. I already knew you liked this kind of thing. I just didn't expect you'd go after a loli too."
Kaoru Mitoma gave up on arguing.
To be honest, he didn't go around licking people, so he couldn't really be considered a foot fetishist.
"Your request… does it also mean… you'll do that to me?"
Kaoru Mitoma fell silent for a moment. "I've changed my mind. I can't do something so perverted to you."
Seeing this, Masumi Kamuro took the initiative to say.
"Actually, I looked it up online. This kind of special fetish doesn't mean anything. Everyone has their own preferences. I can just treat it as accidentally being licked by a dog, hahaha…"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Is it really that funny?"
"No… I just can't imagine you seriously licking Sakayanagi…"
"I've decided. You'd look great with a collar."
"Come up with a proper request!"
After a while, Masumi Kamuro gradually stopped laughing.
Her gaze fell on the distant sea, and she continued.
"I know you're quite lecherous, but it's best not to go too far. Kushida is probably still inexperienced."
"Are you telling me not to corrupt innocent girls?" Kaoru Mitoma asked.
"Not entirely. I'm just… a little worried that you might go off the deep end in the future." Masumi Kamuro turned her head away.
"Human desires are endless. Don't get too carried away with your current victories."
Among the seven Deadly sins, lust is the sweetest temptation.
"I thought you'd find it disgusting."
"It is disgusting, but I don't exactly dislike you as a person."
"What does that mean?"
"How should I know?" Masumi Kamuro scratched her hair in frustration.
"Honestly, I don't even know what I'm thinking right now. Seeing you with Kushida just makes me feel really annoyed and disgusted."
Kaoru Mitoma's expression turned strange.
"And that's not disliking me?"
Masumi Kamuro instinctively opened her mouth, struggling for a while before finally blurting out.
"You're so annoying. I'm going back."
With that, she picked up the drink on the railing and turned to head back to her room.
Halfway there, Masumi Kamuro turned back to look at Kaoru Mitoma.
"Remember to tell me what your request is. And don't go too far!"
