Multiverse: You Said Chuunibyou, But You're Playing for Real?

Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Nibutani's Temptation; Yumiko Miura Takes Decisive Action



As soon as the words were spoken, Hitori Goto's pretty face froze, looking at Haru in disbelief.

Yui Hirasawa, Ritsu Tainaka, Mio Akiyama, and Tsumugi Kotobuki also paused, looking at Haru.

What did he mean by "Guitar Hero is right here"?

"Bocchi-chan is Guitar Hero."

Haru looked at Bocchi-chan, whose face was already feverish and whose whole body was trembling, with a half-smile: "Right?"

Now everyone finally understood.

Instantly, there was an uproar.

"Bocchi-chan is actually Guitar Hero!" Yui Hirasawa stared with disbelief, then her face flushed with joy: "So... so I've been staying with my idol all along!"

"Amazing! Was Bocchi-chan really that incredible?" Ritsu Tainaka was also shocked.

When Bocchi-chan played guitar, she was too nervous and didn't perform well. When Ritsu Tainaka heard Haru say Guitar Hero was here, her first thought was actually Mio Akiyama.

After all, in everyone's eyes, although Mio Akiyama was a bass player, her guitar skills were the best in the club. Before Yui Hirasawa met Bocchi-chan, it was Mio Akiyama who taught her guitar.

"I see." Mio Akiyama also looked thoughtfully at Bocchi-chan. She had always known that Bocchi-chan's guitar level was much better than what she displayed, and she was curious about what level Bocchi-chan could reach if she weren't so nervous.

She hadn't expected that Guitar Hero was Bocchi-chan. Really amazing.

"Very impressive, Bocchi-chan." Tsumugi Kotobuki smiled and handed Bocchi-chan a cup of black tea.

Being praised by everyone, Hitori Goto embarrassedly lowered her head but was so happy her cheeks turned red.

She hadn't expected that when her identity was exposed, everyone would react this way. Not a single person was disappointed.

But she was also puzzled about why Haru knew she was Guitar Hero.

However, the next moment, she had no time to wonder—

"In that case."

Yui Hirasawa said excitedly: "If Haru wants to control his hearing, he just needs to listen to Bocchi-chan play guitar, right?"

And Ritsu Tainaka, thinking of something, rolled her eyes and showed an ambiguous smile, covering her mouth and chuckling: "Doesn't Bocchi-chan also need to help Haru-kun learn to control his sense of smell—"

There's still smell control?

Yui Hirasawa blinked, suddenly her eyes lit up, then with a blushing face she said:

"Doesn't that mean if Haru-kun hugs Bocchi-chan while she plays guitar, he can learn to control both smell and hearing at the same time? This way he can kill two birds with one stone."

Controlling smell meant hugging Bocchi-chan.

Controlling hearing meant listening to Guitar Hero play guitar.

So Yui Hirasawa and Ritsu Tainaka concluded that Haru only needed to hug Bocchi-chan while she played guitar to simultaneously learn to control smell and hearing.

No problem at all.

Hearing this, both Mio Akiyama and Tsumugi Kotobuki blushed slightly, but felt that Yui Hirasawa and Ritsu Tainaka were right. They couldn't help but look at Hitori Goto.

"That would be very romantic." Tsumugi Kotobuki even smiled and added.

"No way, no way, no way..." Hearing this, Hitori Goto stared in disbelief with wide eyes, blushing and frantically refusing.

Being hugged by Haru already made her nervous enough to die. Playing guitar on top of that was absolutely impossible.

"I think it's quite feasible."

Haru stroked his chin, smiling as he looked at Hitori Goto.

He had already completed the suggestion for smell control, so hugging wasn't necessary.

However, he wouldn't be foolish enough to say such things.

"Absolutely no way!"

Hitori Goto nervously closed her eyes, her cheeks crimson as she objected with her loudest voice.

Seeing Hitori Goto's strong opposition, everyone knew that asking the extremely socially anxious Hitori Goto to do such things in front of everyone was asking too much.

"Let's just play guitar today." Seeing Hitori Goto so nervous, Haru could only say with a light laugh.

Complete the suggestion first.

That Yui Hirasawa could experience it next time.

Hearing this, Bocchi-chan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Otherwise, if she really had to be held in Haru's arms while playing guitar in front of everyone, she had no doubt she'd die of nervousness.

Yui Hirasawa and the others also stopped teasing at this point.

Quit while ahead.

However, each of them secretly made plans to definitely make Bocchi-chan and Haru do that kind of thing next time.

After all, none of them had ever had intimate contact with boys before, yet they had all been hugged by Haru for ten minutes.

Having paid such a great price, Bocchi-chan couldn't be an exception.

The next morning, Haru was already prepared, waiting for Shinka Nibutani to come find him.

In just one day, Haru had obtained two suggestions from Shinka Nibutani's Dark Grimoire, which could be called a huge harvest.

Having such an experience, Haru was naturally determined to get this great treasure that was Shinka Nibutani.

However, what surprised him was that Shinka Nibutani hadn't come to find him at all.

"She can actually endure this much?"

Haru was somewhat surprised that this girl could actually resist not coming to find him.

However, he wasn't in a hurry. With the Dark Grimoire in hand, he didn't believe Shinka Nibutani wouldn't take the bait.

Moreover, the suggestion task for the Meditation technique only required listening to Shinka Nibutani's breathing, and didn't need Shinka Nibutani to acknowledge her identity.

Since Haru and Nibutani were in the same class, he could complete this task right in the classroom, so he waited patiently for Nibutani to take the bait.

Sure enough, as expected, during PE class, Shinka Nibutani finally couldn't hold back.

"Dismissed. Free practice from now on."

After the PE teacher announced this, the students took their tennis rackets and found familiar classmates to form teams for practice.

Haru's practice partner was always Rikka Takanashi.

Right after dismissal, Rikka Takanashi came excitedly to Haru's front, wearing cool PE clothes, and said happily:

"Haru, I just comprehended a move called Meteor Fall. I can channel magical power into the tennis ball through the Wicked Eye, then release power comparable to a meteor impact. Amazing, right?"

Saying this, she looked at Haru expectantly, hoping for his admiring gaze.

"Amazing, amazing." Haru patted Rikka Takanashi's head with a smile.

"Hehe." Rikka Takanashi shyly lowered her small head.

Although it wasn't admiration, such praise unexpectedly made her very happy.

Just as Rikka Takanashi was about to start practicing with Haru—

"Haru-san."

A pleasant voice suddenly rang out.

Both Haru and Rikka Takanashi couldn't help but look toward the speaker.

They saw Shinka Nibutani in PE clothes, appearing in front of Haru with a smile.

Under her cool PE uniform, Shinka Nibutani's ample softness was almost impossible to hide. Her fair skin was exposed in large patches before Haru's eyes.

Her slender waist and long, white, graceful legs—almost every part appeared extremely alluring.

Combined with Shinka Nibutani deliberately moving close to Haru, maintaining a perfectly calculated distance.

Haru could tell at a glance that this girl was deliberately showing off her charm.

Knowing the other party was trying to seduce him, Haru still had to shamefully admit that he was tempted by the snow-white skin and perfect figure that showed beneath Shinka Nibutani's PE uniform.

He couldn't help but steal a few more glances.

Girls were exceptionally sensitive to boys' voyeuristic gazes.

Therefore, Haru's gaze naturally didn't escape Shinka Nibutani's notice.

A triumphant smile flashed in her eyes, and she felt secretly pleased.

Rikka Takanashi's face fell, and she lightly tapped Haru with her tennis racket.

Don't think Rikka Takanashi was usually silly—she was actually extremely sharp in this regard.

After all, she was a girl of this age, not a middle schooler like Sanae Dekomori who hadn't grown up yet.

"Ahem." Haru coughed a few times. "Nibutani-san, what can I do for you?"

"Um, can I team up with Haru-san for practice today?"

Shinka Nibutani stared at Haru with an expectant expression.

Rikka Takanashi became anxious, but at this moment—

Shinka Nibutani turned to look at Rikka Takanashi, showing an apologetic expression: "Takanashi-san, yesterday Haru-san invited me to join your club. I asked around and found it quite interesting, so I want to learn more through Haru-san."

"So, could you lend me Haru-san today? Please, Takanashi-san."

Upon hearing this, Rikka Takanashi immediately bloomed with joy.

Shinka Nibutani actually wanted to join her club, which made Rikka Takanashi extremely delighted.

"Since it's to understand the club, I'll temporarily lend Haru-kun to you." Rikka Takanashi nodded without hesitation.

"Hey, hey, how come you didn't ask for my opinion?" Haru said speechlessly. Although Shinka Nibutani approaching him was also Haru's own goal, having Rikka Takanashi sell him out so easily left Haru quite speechless.

"Haru-kun, this is a mission the teacher gave you!"

Rikka Takanashi looked at Haru seriously and said, "The base must be developed and expanded... ow, ow, stop..."

Haru unceremoniously pinched Rikka Takanashi's cheeks.

Only then did he agree to practice with Shinka Nibutani.

Hearing Haru agree, Shinka Nibutani felt overjoyed.

The plan was proceeding smoothly.

"Later, I must dazzle Haru-san completely!"

Shinka Nibutani picked up her tennis racket with a smile, while secretly resolving to fully display her beautiful girl side during practice with Haru.

To completely captivate this guy Haru.

That way, when she made her request to borrow the Dark Grimoire, it would be effortless.

"Although I'm sorry to Takanashi-san, I'll find an opportunity to apologize to Rikka Takanashi afterward."

Seducing Haru was actually quite embarrassing for Shinka Nibutani.

At the same time, she felt very guilty toward Rikka Takanashi, who was also a fellow chūnibyō.

But for the sake of her popular life, she had no choice.

Thinking this way, Shinka Nibutani began practicing with Haru.

However, Shinka Nibutani hadn't anticipated one thing.

Or rather, she had actually anticipated it, but for her popular life, she had to take this risk.

That was, during PE class, students from several classes were all taking the class together.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Shinka Nibutani, as one of the most popular top-tier popular students among the girls, was practicing with Haru, this notorious playboy.

Such a combination naturally drew the attention of other students in the class.

"Why is Shinka Nibutani practicing with that guy?"

Yumiko Miura, also a popular girl from Class F, immediately noticed this scene.

As they say, one mountain cannot contain two tigers, unless one is male and one is female.

Among Class F boys, there was only one popular leader—Hayato Hayama.

But among the girls, there were two popular centers—Yumiko Miura and Shinka Nibutani.

This naturally made Yumiko Miura and Shinka Nibutani somewhat at odds. On the surface, their relationship was mediocre, but secretly, Yumiko Miura had always been competing with Shinka Nibutani.

Now seeing Shinka Nibutani actually make such a huge mistake—practicing with the ill-reputed Haru.

Yumiko Miura immediately realized this was an opportunity.

The chance to decide who was the popular pinnacle among Class F girls had come.

So, while the popular group hadn't dispersed yet, she suddenly spoke up:

"I feel like always practicing in pairs is getting boring."

"Why do you say that, Yumiko?" Yui Yuigahama, skilled at reading the room, immediately picked up the topic and asked curiously.

Hayato Hayama, Kakeru Tobe, and others also looked over.

"I watched a tennis match yesterday and felt that mixed doubles was quite interesting."

Yumiko Miura's lips curved into a smile. "I happen to want to try it today. Hayato, how about we team up for a mixed doubles match against someone else?"

Everyone found it strange, not understanding why Yumiko Miura suddenly mentioned this practice method.

However, the perceptive Yui Yuigahama noticed something, and her expression suddenly became somewhat stiff.

"I don't have any problem with that."

Since Yumiko Miura had proposed teaming up with him, Hayato Hayama naturally had no reason to refuse—that would be too hurtful. "But who should we play against?"

"Doesn't the class president have excellent athletic performance? I heard she even joined the cheerleading club."

Yumiko Miura's delicate pretty face showed a smile. "The only person who could be a worthy opponent for Hayato and me would be Class President Nibutani."

Upon hearing Yumiko Miura's words, everyone immediately understood her intentions.

"That's not quite appropriate."

Yui Yuigahama finally couldn't help but speak up.

Shinka Nibutani practicing with Haru naturally couldn't escape her attention.

Thinking of how both had helped her yesterday, Yui Yuigahama didn't want Yumiko Miura to kick someone while they were down.

"What's inappropriate about it?" Yumiko Miura looked at Yui Yuigahama with displeasure, as if saying, "Yui, whose side are you on?"

Yui Yuigahama immediately didn't dare speak anymore.

Saying those words had already put her at great risk. If she continued, she might really be disliked by Yumiko Miura.

"Practicing against each other can also increase mutual combat experience. I think Nibutani-san would agree."

Because of Yui Yuigahama's words, Yumiko Miura was obviously somewhat displeased, so she walked toward Shinka Nibutani without hesitation.
