Diary Of Service Club, Helping The Elf Princess

These two blonde beauties are none other than the elven transfer students who caused a stir among the students yesterday: one is the elven princess Iris, and the other is her escort, the elven knight Aegis.

Iris was standing in front of Shizuka Hiratsuka. Upon hearing a sound, she turned her head and saw Hikigaya Hachiman. Her eyes lit up instantly as she quickly walked over to him. Fixing her gaze on Hachiman, whose body radiated with vibrant and tenacious life energy, her face turned slightly red as she asked expectantly: "Hello, I am Iris Thea Eaderlindt. You can just call me Iris."

"Are you the president of the Service Club?"

"...Iris, hello. I am Hikigaya Hachiman, president of the Service Club. Were you the one who asked Hiratsuka-sensei to call me here?"

Looking at the adorable and doll-like elven princess Iris in front of him, Hachiman could feel her intense gaze fixed on him. Keeping his face calm, he glanced at Shizuka Hiratsuka with a hint of confusion.

'Didn't Hiratsuka-sensei call me to the student guidance office to ask about Kenichiro Miwa's matter yesterday? How come Iris, the elven princess, is also here?'

He thought he would only see Iris after school, but to his surprise, they crossed paths right here in Hiratsuka's office.

"I had something else to discuss with you, but it just so happens that Her Highness Iris and her escort came here to inquire about the murder case near the school," Hiratsuka explained, noting Hachiman's puzzled look.

Iris, as a princess of the elves, may be said to possess magic and have an escort, but it's not unusual for her to show concern about the incident given that it happened right after she transferred to Sobu High.

Yesterday, Hiratsuka had been responsible for showing Iris around the school. Since she also handles student guidance, it was natural for Iris to come to her with concerns.

Coincidentally, Hiratsuka had asked Rurikawa to call Hachiman over to discuss something. Now that both parties had converged, she couldn't help but think the timing was too unfortunate, making it difficult for her to address her original agenda.

"We just happened to be here with Hiratsuka-sensei, but we heard that the Service Club accepts requests from students, right?"

Iris added to the explanation, but her eyes never left Hachiman. She stared at him unblinkingly, as if afraid he might vanish.

Initially, she had planned to discuss with her sister and escort, Aegis, whether to approach the Service Club to assess the other party's physical state.

But now that she had seen him in person, they realized they didn't even need to use magic for a detailed examination. Just by standing nearby, they could sense the overwhelming vitality emanating from this young man.

It was the first time she had encountered a human with such extraordinary life energy. If this Service Club president could assist her, coupled with her amplification magic...

She believed that with his help, she would surely be able to give birth to many gifted elves, bringing prosperity to their race and restoring the glory of the elves. [T/N: 😏]

"Hmm... The Service Club's purpose is to extend a helping hand to those in difficulty, but we don't take on just any request. After all, we're not a charity."

Hachiman nodded thoughtfully, clearly sensing Iris' intense focus on him.

But he didn't even know Iris. The only connection between them was the task to assist her assigned by his system, which there's no way she could know about.

"Actually... We have an unusual request and would like to ask the Service Club for help."

Hearing Hachiman say they don't accept just any request, Iris exchanged a glance with Aegis. Both of their flawless, fair faces turned slightly red. Pressing her lips together and glancing away shyly, Iris hesitated before softly asking, "President Hachiman, could you... assist me in getting pregnant? I desperately need your assistance."

The student guidance office instantly fell silent. Hiratsuka froze, staring in disbelief at the blushing elven princess.

"Assistance? Your Highness Iris, did you just say assistance?"

The word "assistance" in Japanese culture means support or lending a hand, which is much more proper compared to terms like "serving," which can carry suggestive undertones.

However, when "assistance" is followed by "pregnant," the term takes on an entirely different connotation.

'Wait, didn't Iris say pregnant instead of communication just now? That's even worse...'

She wants his life rather than his money?

Hiratsuka couldn't believe that this perfect and elegant elven princess would seek the second type of assistance from a gloomy, dead-fish-eyed student like Hachiman.

No matter how dire her circumstances, surely the elven princess wouldn't stoop to seeking such assistance from an ordinary high schooler.

But the shy expression on Iris' face when she mentioned "assistance" made it hard to believe her intentions were entirely pure.

Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't believe that the refined and perfect elf princess before her would ask Hikigaya, this gloomy dead-fish-eyed student, for the second type of assistance. No matter how down and out an elf princess was, she wouldn't stoop to seeking help from an ordinary high school student, right?

However, just now, when Iris mentioned "assistance," the shy expression on her face made it hard to think she was merely asking Hikigaya for help in a purely innocent sense.

"You didn't mishear. I want President Hikigaya to assist me."

Although Iris felt a little shy under Hiratsuka Shizuka's gaze, she still maintained a serious expression and earnestly answered her question.

"Sensei Hiratsuka, you may not know this, but we elves are different from humans. Although we live incredibly long lives, comparable to dragons, our reproductive periods are short and occur only after long intervals."

"I am currently in my reproductive period and urgently need someone to assist me in conceiving. Otherwise, I don't know how long I'll have to wait for the next cycle."

"Reproductive period... conceiving..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka was utterly speechless, seeing this elf princess—normally so gentle, elegant, and courteous—blushing and openly talking about such matters. She had heard bits about the elves, 'but you're an elf princess, after all.'

The dignified elf princess transferred to the human world... just to find a human to have a child with?

When she first heard about the elf princess transferring schools, she had thought it was because their kingdom was on the brink of destruction, requiring a prophecy-foretold hero to defeat a demon king and save them or something like that.

Hmm… though Hiratsuka Shizuka was fond of shounen manga, even if it involved otherworldly settings, they could still be brimming with passion, couldn't they?

"Not just any human will do. The reason we immediately chose President Hikigaya from the Service Club is that he possesses extraordinary vitality", Perhaps sensing Hiratsuka Shizuka's doubts, Iris's companion, the heroic-looking, blonde elf Aegis, explained.

"Extraordinary vitality?"

"Simply put, the stronger the vitality of the person assisting, the more potential the princess's offspring will have."

"And Lord Hikigaya possesses tremendous vitality. He is undoubtedly the ideal assistant for Her Highness."

"..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka roughly understood Aegis's point, but she was still utterly stunned.

Leaving aside the fact that Hikigaya seemed to have some kind of protagonist aura, just looking at Iris and Aegis...

How did this elf clan differ so much from the elves in her impression? Shouldn't they be proud, pure, and disdainful of humans?

In reality, Iris, the elf princess, had just met Hikigaya, and now she was asking him to help her have a child...

"Is it not allowed for transferring elves to request assistance from the Service Club?"

Seeing Hiratsuka Shizuka stare silently for so long, Iris hesitated and asked.

Human customs were different from those of elves. Despite her preparation and studies before coming, she couldn't guarantee there wouldn't be any mistakes.

Maybe she had overlooked something, leading to a misunderstanding in her actions and words.

Of course, she understood the term "assistance."

The reason she used the word was that she genuinely thought they were asking the Service Club for assistance.

"No, that's not the problem. Why did you choose Hikigaya? Don't you elves have male counterparts?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at Hikigaya, who had barely spoken the whole time, still unable to understand why Iris would take a fancy to him.

Hikigaya shot a brief glance at Hiratsuka Shizuka, who doubted him, silently making a mental note of it.

"Well..."

Iris bit her thin cherry lips, a blush spreading down her neck.

"Male elves are essentially copies of the queen and cannot reproduce," Aegis explained, shaking her head. "Even if they could, we would still choose Lord Hikigaya."

"During the reproductive period, elves need their assistant to engage in frequent and intensive assistance to conceive. But Her Highness only wants a single helper, so it has to be someone as exceptional and strong as Lord Hikigaya."

Iris was an outstanding elf princess among her kind, so naturally, during her reproductive period, she needed an equally remarkable partner to assist her.

Undoubtedly, aside from this human male brimming with vitality, no one else was worthy of Iris.

"..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at the serious, determined knight Aegis, then at the shy, blushing elf princess Iris, before finally focusing her gaze on Hikigaya, her expression incredibly complex.

Sōbu High strictly prohibited impure relationships between male and female students. Now, the elf princess wanted to submit an assistance request, which directly contradicted school regulations.

But rejecting it outright wouldn't work either. Leaving aside the fact that the elf princess held an extraordinary status, making it difficult to turn down her reasonable request...

If she were to refuse outright and Hikigaya, this hot-blooded teenage boy, privately agreed to help the elf princess, it would be even harder to manage and could cause a major disruption to school discipline.

'This Hikigaya guy... Is the establishment of this Service Club a premeditated move?'

"Sensei Hiratsuka, why are you looking at me like that? Do you want me to refuse Iris's request?"

Hikigaya noticed Hiratsuka Shizuka's conflicted gaze but pretended not to understand it, directly asking aloud.

From Hiratsuka Shizuka's perspective as a student advisor, there was no way her student should get involved in something like this. This type of request, which could have life-changing consequences, was way too outrageous. If discovered, the school's carefully maintained strict discipline would be in jeopardy.

But Hikigaya had no intention of taking the blame.

If he lacked the ability to assist elf princess Iris, that would be one thing—he wouldn't push himself to death just to get closer to her.

Even if the reward for helping the elf princess would surely be enticing, he wasn't about to risk his life for it.

However, since Iris and her knight sister Aegis had chosen him at a glance, explaining that his vitality was extraordinarily strong and made him the best candidate to assist Iris, Hikigaya realized just how exceptional his current physical abilities were in this world.

After all, in Hitman 47, Agent 47 retained the body of a 20-year-old even at fifty-plus, maintaining near-perfect health.

Now, with the powerful capabilities of Hitman 47 in his young teenage body, he was undoubtedly an ideal candidate to assist the elf princess.

Hmm... Although he wasn't sure how that formidable physique translated to this particular kind of ability, it should be sufficient for the elf princess's request.

"Hikigaya..."

Seeing Hikigaya completely disregard her gaze, even passing the responsibility back to her, Hiratsuka Shizuka silently clenched her teeth.

That said, she couldn't exactly accuse Hikigaya of harboring ill intentions toward the elf princess, as Iris was the one who had taken the initiative.

If she were in Hikigaya's shoes, having such a good thing fall into her lap, she wouldn't want to refuse either.

"Sensei Hiratsuka, is it not possible? I really need the Service Club's help."

Seeing Hiratsuka Shizuka's reaction, Iris couldn't help but blush further as she asked again.

For the young elf princess, this was also her first time seeking assistance, and she felt shy about it. But as the future queen of her kind, she couldn't afford to be careless in matters of offspring.

"It's not that I refuse… It's just that the school prohibits impure relationships between male and female students. You only transferred here yesterday, so you might not know how strict the rules are on this."

Hiratsuka Shizuka sighed, looking at the blushing Iris, feeling at a loss.

Faced with Hikigaya, she could still maintain her teacherly authority. But when it came to this kind, beautiful, and earnest elf princess, she was utterly at her wit's end.

"Male-female relationships are prohibited too? But isn't it true that your laws allow students to marry and become couples? Why prohibit relationships, then? School rules shouldn't override the law, right?"

Clearly, Iris had studied human customs before arriving in the human world. Even in her current state of embarrassment, she could calmly point out the flaws in Hiratsuka Shizuka's argument without hesitation.
