Diary Of Service Club, Helping The Elf Princess

[🎉 Shoutout to Jorge_Monterossa for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]

Iris's efforts deserve recognition, but as a girl, her delicate feelings must also be cared for.

Iris stared intently at Hikigaya's face. Hearing his words, she was momentarily stunned. Her beautiful eyes blinked, and then she suddenly hugged Hikigaya's neck tightly and lightly bit his lips.

"Mm... President, don't worry, I'm not forcing myself. Iris feels very happy right now."

After a long moment, Iris leaned against him, softly whispering in his ear with gentle panting.

She had initially thought that seeking a strong, vibrant life force to assist in preserving the elven royal lineage would make her unwelcome. After all, the elves had fallen on hard times lately.

Some high elves who had not matured and had wandered outside were even captured. In the past, no one would have dared such things.

Yet she could feel that the president of the Service Club, Hikigaya, regarded her as a girl with care and consideration, attending to her thoughts and feelings.

It had nothing to do with power or status, but simply because she was a girl.

Though the president's lack of initiative left her slightly disheartened, making her feel her charm seemed insufficient to draw him out—even making it hard to get him to be more proactive.

Was it her personal allure lacking, or was the stimulation simply not enough...?

Thinking of this, Iris couldn't help but slide off Hikigaya's lap, sitting in a duck-like posture on the floor.

"President, do you know where we are right now?"

Her slender, soft legs in white silk stockings gently touched the clean, smooth floor as Iris's voice sounded again.

"Isn't this an unused girls' restroom?"

Hikigaya looked at Iris with some confusion, reaching out to play with her ponytail.

It was lunchtime, so if this were in the school building, there would surely be many girls coming and going. The utter silence here clearly indicated it was a remote location.

"It's not. This is... the girls' swimming club..."

'The girls' swimming club?'

Hikigaya only recognized this place as a remote, unused girls' restroom based on its arrangement. He hadn't expected Iris to take it further and bring him to the girls' swimming club.

The girls' swimming club, as the name implies, consisted entirely of girls. If he were caught here, he wouldn't be able to brush it off with a simple excuse like accidentally entering the wrong restroom in a moment of haste.

The imminent social death made Hikigaya subconsciously tighten his grip on the golden ponytail in his hand.

Thankfully, it was noon—not after-school club activity time—so there shouldn't be anyone here at the swimming club.

Good, good. He almost thought Iris was going too far.

"Mm..."

The golden ponytail firmly gripped in Hikigaya's hand made Iris lower her head obediently, remaining silent.

She had indeed considered choosing a remote, deserted place, but that seemed to lack excitement.

After all, if even she felt too relaxed, Hikigaya might notice it too.

Of course, as an elven princess, her intention wasn't to actually be discovered.

She had placed some minor magical barriers around them. Unfortunately, it was lunchtime, and other demi-human students in the school liked wandering around, meaning Iris's companion, Aegis, wasn't available to help.

If Hikigaya didn't mind, she actually wanted to involve Aegis. Though Aegis was her guard, she was also her sister and a former elven princess.

It was only due to personality reasons that Aegis couldn't continue being the elven princess. Her royal bloodline and capabilities remained intact, and if she joined in, the chances of conception would double. Part of Aegis' role as a guard was due to such considerations.

After a few more collaborative efforts with Hikigaya, once they became more familiar, Iris would bring up involving Aegis.

Right now, this was only the second session with Hikigaya, so it wasn't appropriate to mention doubling the support.

The elven royal family had low reproductive rates due to their long lifespans. Ordinary elves had it somewhat better, but as royal descendants, conceiving a child would require bothering Hikigaya for a long time...

Hikigaya had no idea that, under his nose, Iris was already considering how to double the support.

However, he had to admit that Iris was daring. The feeling of being in the girls' swimming club was even stronger than in the student guidance office.

Even though he knew logically that they wouldn't be discovered, he still couldn't help worrying about social death.

Just as the thought crossed his mind, a series of hurried footsteps approached from a distance.

However, just as Hikigaya had this thought, a series of hurried footsteps approached from a distance.

"BANG!"

A loud door-slamming noise came from next door, followed by the sound of water running.

Then, voices of several girls talking echoed from outside.

"Hayase, are you in such a hurry? No wonder you swam so fast today."

"Hayase, you seemed distracted during today's test. Your performance has dropped a bit. Although the final selection for the national representatives is still some time away, with your current state, the captain won't let you continue staying in that weird club."

"Vice-Captain Fuyumura... In the swimming club, Otaki, first-years like Haruwaka, Samuracho, and Nanasaki are all very strong. They don't really need me..."

"Hayase, you're also the vice-captain and our ace. How can you say such things?"

"Hehe, that's just Hayase's personality. But her ability isn't a problem. Hayase, can you come back to train today?"

"Umm... I don't have time this afternoon..."

Hearing the scolding voice of that fool, Hayase Saki, coming from outside, Hikigaya lowered his gaze toward Iris, who still hadn't stopped what she was doing. He reached out and gently pinched her soft, smooth, flawless cheek.

'Did Iris plan all of this? Is she really not afraid of playing with fire?'

"Umm..."

Iris didn't speak. She just raised her head and looked at him with innocent eyes.

Maybe even she wouldn't believe it if she said it, but she truly hadn't done it on purpose.

According to the plan, it had already been a while since lunch break ended. Everyone should have gone to eat by now. How could anyone still be here?

Hikigaya didn't say anything. Listening to the conversation outside, he gradually understood why they had come to train at this time.

Although the girls' swimming club was supposed to consist only of female members, it didn't mean there was a dedicated swimming pool just for them.

Aside from the track team that could practice anywhere, clubs like the tennis, basketball, and baseball teams all used the school's regular facilities. During gym class, everyone shared them, and after school, the spaces were allocated to their respective clubs for activities.

It seemed Hayase Saki and her group, after swimming class, hadn't immediately gone for lunch, giving the girls' swimming club an opportunity to schedule extra training.

Extra training in the middle of the day... Doesn't that mean Hayase Saki is skipping lunch again today?

Suddenly, Hikigaya remembered that around this time yesterday, Hayase Saki hadn't eaten either. In the end, she could only fill her stomach with some of his cookies and milk.

"Hmph!"

"Eh? Is Otaki still here? Wait, no, I just saw Otaki leave."

Outside the bathroom, most of the girls from the swimming club had already left, except for the distracted and slow-moving Hayase Saki and the swimming club captain, Shionatsu Sayuri. [T/N: I can't find who she is so if anyone knows do mention. At least one word of her name should be correct]

Hayase Saki, with her stunning figure, wore her swimming gear perfectly, accentuating her form. However, next to her, Shionatsu Sayuri's figure wasn't far behind. Especially when she crossed her arms while scolding Hayase Saki, it made her figure even more impressive.

Shionatsu Sayuri suddenly heard a strange sound in the space that now only had the two of them. She turned her head toward the row of bathroom stalls, focusing on the only one with a tightly closed door.

"Who's in there? Nanasaki? Samurachō? Or Haruwaka?"

No one answered. Shionatsu Sayuri hesitantly looked at Hayase Saki beside her.

Equally startled by the odd noise, Hayase Saki shrank back and shook her head wildly.

Alright, Hayase wasn't going to be of any help.

Understanding Hayase Saki's timid personality, Shionatsu Sayuri took a deep breath, stepped forward, grabbed the door handle, twisted it firmly, and flung the door open.

It revealed nothing but a clean, gleaming toilet.

"...Was I hearing things? Guess I was overthinking."

Seeing the completely ordinary stall, Shionatsu Sayuri froze for a moment, her tense nerves slowly relaxing. She had thought it might be some supernatural occurrence and nearly scared herself to death.

There's no way such supernatural things could exist, let alone her being unlucky enough to encounter one.

"Let's go, Hayase. Let's grab lunch and talk about what's going on with your club."

Shionatsu Sayuri pulled Hayase Saki along as they walked away.

"Didn't you say you temporarily joined that club just to make up the numbers? You'd be back to the swimming club soon. Why do you seem like you're about to officially join them? Don't tell me you've fallen for someone there."

"N-No! I-I didn't fall for the captain..."

Hearing Shionatsu Sayuri's question, Hayase Saki quickly denied it.

"...Alright, I'll talk to them myself."

Seeing that Hayase Saki had completely misunderstood her point and was only focused on the "liking someone" part, Shionatsu Sayuri sighed. She was curious to see which boy managed to steal away their swimming club's ace.

After just a few days, Hayase Saki was already calling that person "captain"?

Although the girls' swimming club had many skilled members and fierce competition for official spots, Shionatsu Sayuri still held Hayase Saki in high regard and didn't want her to leave the team.

With Hayase Saki's timid and introverted personality, she'd surely be bullied if she joined another club. It'd be better for her to stay in the swimming club and let her performance speak for itself.

"Yes..."

Lowering her head, Hayase Saki obediently accepted the lecture. However, just before being pulled away by Shionatsu Sayuri, she couldn't help but glance back at the now-empty bathroom.

Earlier, she thought she had heard the captain's voice.

Was she imagining things? How could she think the captain would appear in the girls' restroom?

Such things only happen in certain stories. They couldn't possibly occur in real life.

Moreover, she and Captain Shionatsu had just checked, and there wasn't anyone else in the bathroom. Unless someone could disappear into thin air...

Pausing in her steps, Hayase Saki suddenly remembered how the captain had shown up at her house yesterday and taken her to the convenience store after she'd just stepped out of the bath, completely unclothed...

After Hayase Saki was pulled away by the swimming club captain Shionatsu Sayuri, the bathroom returned to silence.

A while later, in the previously confirmed-empty stall, Hikigaya and Iris suddenly appeared.

As Iris slowly removed her hands from her mouth, her snow-white face flushed a deep red, so hot it looked like it could drip blood. Her misty eyes stared blankly ahead.

Hikigaya also relaxed his tense body, sitting back down while holding Iris's slender, soft waist.

Seeing Iris still limp against him, yet to recover, Hikigaya lifted her golden hair, damp with sweat and stuck to her fair forehead, and playfully pinched her delicate elf ears. He then gave her blushing cheek a firm kiss.

They hadn't actually teleported away just now—Iris had simply used magic to make them invisible.

Fortunately, Iris was an elven princess and had mastery over invisibility magic. Otherwise, they really would've been caught.

Though with his current skills, Hikigaya could have flipped into the adjacent stall the moment Shionatsu Sayuri opened the door. But that was an ideal scenario. The reality was that Iris had been kneeling on the ground. If he had tried to run off alone, Iris would've clung to him and refused to let him go.

"Just now... that girl being scolded outside, Hayase... is she someone the captain knows?"

Still trembling slightly as Hikigaya played with her sensitive elf ears, Iris bit her lip and softly tried to change the subject.

Although she hadn't been watching Hikigaya's face the entire time, she could clearly sense his reaction. It was obvious that hearing Hayase's voice made him unusually emotional.
