NOVEL WEB Isekai sōzō no Susu-me ~ sumahoapuri de wakusei o tsukutte shimatta ore wa kami to nari sekai o meguru ~ Chapter 26
Story of Togami Kuroko 1
A short distance away from residence of the Togami Family, the mainstream of Onmyouji, Kuroko Togami, a beautiful dark-haired girl with the highest grades in the school, got out of the luxury car that picked her up and headed the school building.
“Kyaa!!! Look, it’s Togami-sama!! Ah, she’s beautiful as usual…”
“She has beautiful black hair and still looks beautiful even in her school uniform. As expected of the school’s Yamato Nadeshiko….”
It’s just a normal got off, but the surrounding students, both male and female, were all fascinated by her beautiful as walked off the buss and going to the same school.
Some were fascinated by the long, slender hair flowing in the wind, while others were gulping at the nobility emanating from her graceful gait.
Whether it was now or in the future, the beautiful girl who would make everyone fall in love with her just by standing there was none other than Kuroko Togami.
Although she herself wasn’t particularly aware of her actions, the reactions around her had been similar since childhood, so she was already accustomed to them.
At that moment, on her way to class, a brave male student spoke to her.
“Ah, ano! To, Togami-san! Please, please, please go out with me!”
“Ah, I’m sorry…”
Although he confessed with a red face, he was rejected without hesitation.
While this is a series of overly tragic conversations, this scenario is actually a famous event of the academy and is even known by other schools as a tragedy that happens every day.
From seniors to juniors, the number of confessions that had been cut in two had reached triple digits.
But love is blind, and even after being rejected once, he still bited the bullet.
“Why, why! Why? At least, at least tell me the reason!”
“Reason?…
Hmm~…. Kuroko tilted her head, pondering the reason.
However, she couldn’t think of any particular reason, she just felt that “it’s not this man”.
In the end, however, the question, “What kind of man is he?” was a natural question that would lead to the image of a certain man.
When Kuroko noticed this, she blushed and said, “No, no, it’s not like that,” she couldn’t stop thinking about the man.
Although she herself wasn’t mentally ready to understand such thoughts, she thought she had found a good excuse.
“Kuroko-san, please, please tell me why!”
“Oh, but…. Actually, I already have someone I like, so I’m sorry.
” …….. Uh? No, eh?”
“That’s right, I have a crush on someone… ”
Thinking it was the result of a good idea, the words were instantly conveyed to all present, and for a moment there was silence.
Then that silence, the next moment, erupted.
“Eh, eh, eeeeeeeeeeeehh!!!!!!!”
The outburst even spread to the school building, adding more to the rumor than her own words.
A certain student said, “She has got a lover, no, she has got a fiance.”
The other said, “The guy is certainly a famous idol.”
The rumors, which had expanded without permission, came to a temporary halt during the class and reached an unmanageable size by the lunch break.
For Kuroko herself, feeling that she had made too much of a fuss when she clearly hadn’t said anything, but that way there would be no troublesome confessions for the time being, thinking about it, she unexpectedly enjoyed the lunch break with a pleasant mood.
But there was one person in this school who wouldn’t allow such rumors.
“Aha, Kuroko-san, I heard you’ve decided on a fiancé?
“Ah, hello, Mikado-san. No, I’m not a fiancé yet, but there’s a man I’m very interested in.”
Mikado Saionji came after hearing rumors.
Always treating Kuroko as a rival, she also possesses beauty and power as well as supernatural abilities, and is a member to a secret organization that lurks in the Japanese side.
Although it is a secret organization, the Japanese government is aware of its existence, and it is primarily an organization entrusted by the government to settle disputes between youkai and spirits that cannot be disclosed, as well as to deal with supernatural beings.
Although not known to the general public, it was a surprisingly famous group among the Omnyoji and the supranatural lovers.
Saionji, who was curling her pride hair with her fingers, seemed to be irritated and continued.
“You have said another ridiculous thing.You have a mission as a sacrifice and you are talking about love, …Have you forgotten your own mission?”
“I haven’t forgotten, I just can’t forget that man.”
Sparks flew from both sides who had opened their “boundaries” so that the people around them would not hear the conversation.
However, she didn’t know what she was upset about, but when she heard this reply, Saionji Mikado said again.
“Hmm, who is that man….? Since you say so, he must be a great man. But what a pity, that promising man will sooner or later be involved in a war with a great youkai and will die because of you, right? Even the strongest human is no match for that monster.”
“Heh…. Will this be the case?”
For Kuroko, she knew exactly what role she was born with.
She also know that the monster, which has an insurmountably powerful power, is about to make a comeback.
But when she thought of that man, the figure of Saito Kenji, she felt that it was no longer concern.
Maybe he could do something, maybe he could turn things around in a desperate situation.
The way that man was defeated…She can’t imagine.
Now, Kuroko no longer holds vague hopes, but real conviction.
“What’s so funny about that!!!”
“No, I’m sorry. But it’s so strange……. Hehehe….”
“Well, since you’ve come to that point, I will find out who that man is. If that man is an ordinary who doesn’t fit with you, I will force him to end the relationship then.”
It’s not a rivalry, but rather a sad expression on her face as she spoke.
In contrast to her giggling self, the attitude was strange to people around them, but no one dared to interfere with the two of them who were at the top of the academy, and a certain amount of silence passed by.
“I don’t think you can do anything with him after all,” she said
“Don’t forget that. Well, I’m to leave now.”
Finally, Saionji muttered in a small voice that no one could hear, “I don’t want to see you cry anymore,” and walked away.
“Yes, I will never forget that. My few best friends cared so much for me………But I’m sure everyone will have a happy ending. I wonder? …. it’s a really strange feeling.”
She gently closed her eyes, the profile of a man who would surely figure out the solution even if it involved all the people close to her in the matter came to her mind.
