Diary Of Service Club, Helping The Elf Princess

Hiratsuka Shizuka:Now, it is time to find Ichinose Suzuno, who stubbornly refused to tell the truth.

Although Hikigaya, that guy, surprisingly chose not to expose someone else's privacy, she still had some thoughts about the "lover" Ichinose Suzuno mentioned before.

A lover who couldn't be revealed... worrying about exposing the other party's identity...

———

"Sakurase-san, sit down first."

As Shizuka Hiratsuka left, Hikigaya glanced at Sakurase Shino, who stood silently to the side, and gestured for her to sit in the only remaining empty chair.

"..."

Sakurase Shino looked at the only unoccupied chair in the clubroom. Her expression didn't change, nor did her body move.

"Sit down."

Hikigaya didn't explain further but repeated the instruction as he looked at her.

"..."

This time, Sakurase Shino moved. She slowly sat in the only vacant chair, her expression still unchanging.

"Since Hiratsuka-sensei asked you to join the Service Club, start by filling out an application form to join. I'll hand it over to Hiratsuka-sensei later."

Seeing that Sakurase Shino obediently complied, Hikigaya placed his hand on her head, patting her smooth, silky, cherry-colored hair with a slight sense of amazement.

It seemed true that Sakurase Shino genuinely wanted to be guided by him. Although she didn't say anything, she didn't question or resist his words and followed his instructions directly.

Though this idea felt a bit strange, it didn't seem to be a problem.

After all, tasks like raising handsome guys impregnating had already appeared. Having a "guidance task" didn't seem particularly unusual either.

The only unusual aspect was that Sakurase Shino was the one wanting to be guided, not someone guiding others.

Sakurase Shino quietly glanced at Hikigaya. When he handed her a blank application form, she slowly picked up the pen and began writing on the desk.

"President! Please take my seat!"

Hayase Saki, who had been sitting in her chair, suddenly jumped up. Looking at Sakurase Shino calmly filling out the application form, she hurriedly moved her chair to Hikigaya's side.

She'd been too slow to realize that all three chairs were already occupied, leaving the club president without a seat since his arrival.

"Saki, you're being too nervous. I wasn't planning to scold you."

Seeing Hayase Saki moving her chair, Hikigaya chuckled helplessly and pushed her gently back into her seat. He then patted the heads of both Sakurase Shino and Hayase Saki.

"But... President, where will you sit…"

Hayase Saki blinked, glancing at Sakurase Shino—who appeared to be entirely uninterested in the ongoing conversation—and hesitantly looked up at Hikigaya.

"There are plenty of desks and chairs over there. We can just grab a few more."

Hikigaya pointed at the pile of furniture in the corner. The Service Club's clubroom was originally an abandoned classroom, with unused desks and chairs stored here.

They had already cleared out the front half of the room earlier, setting up two new desks and chairs Yukinoshita Yukino had arranged. Grabbing a few more wouldn't be an issue.

"However, these desks and chairs are a bit dirty. Iris, I'll leave the cleaning to you."

Hikigaya moved several desks and chairs over before turning to Iris.

"No problem."

Iris smiled and nodded.

Soon, Hayase Saki, Sakurase Shino, and Yukino Yukinoshita all watched as Iris used her water magic to clean the furniture until it was spotless.

"Magic…"

Yukino Yukinoshita stared unblinkingly at Iris as she performed her cleaning magic.

Unfortunately, the elves' magic relied on something called mana, which was difficult for humans in this world to perceive, let alone people like her who weren't from another world.

Hikigaya also had some interest in learning magic. However, with his system, tasks and hunting Minotaurs would likely make magic easily attainable.

With angels and demons already present in this world, mere magic didn't seem particularly noteworthy.

"Um, President… will today's club activities be like yesterday's?"

After Iris and the others sat down, Hayase Saki, who had been watching eagerly, looked at Hikigaya and softly asked.

'A Secretive Training Session?'

'Yesterday's club activities?'

'Were yesterday's Service Club activities similar to impregnating?'

Iris found herself curious about what Hayase Saki meant by "club activities." However, it didn't seem like it would be the same as her royal elven assistance tasks.

At noon, she realized that her mistaken assumption that the club president liked Saki Hayase seemed somewhat natural regarding kneeling behavior, but the others weren't as skilled, fumbling like she did when facing the president in the morning. [T/N: Kneeling behaviour means at the toilet when Saki Hayase gave Hikigaya a blo*job]

It was clear that Saki Hayase had a close relationship with Hikigaya, the president, but not to the extent of being a couple. Otherwise, she wouldn't think of herself as not even being the president's friend.

Of course, the fact that Saki Hayase wasn't even a friend but was so submissive to the president surprised her a little.

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know about timid Saki Hayase secretly sneaking food behind her back. Hearing that the typically weak and introverted Saki Hayase took the initiative to ask about club activities, Yukino couldn't help but cast a few suspicious glances at the big-busted, airheaded Saki Hayase.

'Did Saki Hayase really have such courage? She could barely speak a word when talking to me, yet now she dared to actively ask Hikigaya about the club's upcoming activities?'

"Uh, what I meant was, why didn't Yuina and the others come here with the president?"

Feeling the puzzled gazes of everyone, Saki Hayase panicked and quickly explained.

Yuina and the others were in the same class as the president and had agreed yesterday to continue with the handsome president development task today. Wasn't it normal not to see Yuina and the others now?

Why was everyone staring at her so oddly?

"Yuina and the others went to have dessert with classmates first. They'll come to my house later to help me train."

Hikigaya explained briefly, not exposing Saki Hayase's little intentions.

The task with Yuina and the others had nothing to do with Saki Hayase. Someone usually so timid suddenly being so proactive was certainly suspicious.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino, unaware of what happened at noon, couldn't guess Saki Hayase's real motive for wanting to follow them to his house.

"What about the others? Are you going to bring everyone to your house for club activities?"

Yukinoshita Yukino slightly frowned, glancing at the elf princesses Iris and Aegis, as well as the silent newcomer Shino Sakurase.

She didn't intend to let too many people know about Yuina and the others' handsome president development task.

Although this task was carried out with mutual agreement between Yuina, Yuina, Rin and Hikigaya without involving any monetary transactions, the nature of the task and its rewards were, ultimately, rather strange and could have a bad impact if spread.

"Uh... then should we dismiss for today? I can handle Yuina and the others by myself. But since Ms. Hiratsuka just entrusted us with taking care of Sakurase Shino, do you want to help guide her?"

Hikigaya hesitated for a moment and then looked at Yukinoshita Yukino for her opinion.

Truthfully, he wasn't too keen on having so many people at his house today.

Because Kaede and Suzu had just been sent away through a bet, they would definitely come back home. Additionally, Komachi and her classmate Asogi Shion didn't need to move today, so they would return earlier than usual after school.

There was a high chance they would all be at home by then. While Yuina and her group could be explained as newly made friends visiting, it would be hard to keep Iris and the others from crowding his house.

"I'll guide Sakurase Shino myself."

Hearing Hikigaya's suggestion, Yukinoshita Yukino hesitated briefly before looking at Sakurase Shino, who seemed completely detached from their conversation and was wandering in her own world. She nodded slowly.

To be honest, she wasn't a very sociable person and didn't even have anyone in her class she could genuinely call a friend.

Guiding someone like Sakurase Shino, a silent and introverted girl, felt rather daunting for Yukinoshita Yukino.

However, Sakurase Shino had responded to Hikigaya earlier, obediently sitting in her seat when he told her to. This indicated that she wasn't simply avoiding others but could react to a stranger's words.

While Sakurase Shino wasn't too troublesome, the real problem lay with Yuina and her group.

If possible, Yukinoshita Yukino naturally wanted to join Hikigaya and the others to fulfill Ms. Hiratsuka's request in the Service Club. Yesterday, she had seen Yuina giving Hikigaya a reward right in front of her.

If she won't be present today, no one would be able restrain them.

Yet she was also worried about someone like Sakurase Shino, a simple and introverted girl, being negatively influenced by Hikigaya and Yuina.

Not that she could necessarily stop them if Yuina and the others had certain ideas.

"Sakurase Shino, you can stay with Yukinoshita for now. Once you've finished talking, you can head home and skip the club activities."

Seeing Yukinoshita Yukino agree, Hikigaya didn't drag things out. He patted Sakurase Shino's head and then stood up.

Honestly, he found it a little strange how obedient this introverted girl was.

Perhaps it had something to do with her witnessing him kill in the alley, which might explain her current submissiveness.

If Yukinoshita Yukino failed to guide Sakurase Shino, he would step in later, and Yukinoshita wouldn't have much to say.

After all, if she couldn't even manage to make Sakurase Shino listen, there was no room for her to criticize him.

Hikigaya wasn't worried about not having a chance to step in. If Sakurase Shino were that easy to guide, Ms. Hiratsuka wouldn't have gone out of her way to entrust her to the Service Club.

Ms. Hiratsuka might have some questionable personal habits, but she was quite professional in her work.

"What kind of training were you talking about just now? Is it some secret training we're not allowed to see?"

After seeing Hikigaya and Yukinoshita Yukino finish their conversation, Iris curiously looked at them.

She understood their dialogue's general meaning since they didn't try to hide it.

She was just a bit puzzled as to what kind of training would need to be concealed.

Was there some impressive training method among humans? She had assumed the president's robust vitality was innate.

"Ahem, the training we mentioned is just ordinary training. It's just that having so many people at my house today isn't convenient."

Seeing Iris' misunderstanding, Hikigaya coughed lightly.

In reality, the training itself wasn't anything that couldn't be seen. What couldn't be revealed was the reward following the training.

"That's a pity. I'll visit the president's house next time, then. I'm very curious about it~"

Iris expressed some regret. She had planned to spend some quality time aiding the president after school, making the day thoroughly fulfilling.

But the president seemed quite busy, and aside from skipping one class in the morning to spend a fulfilling period together, she hadn't gotten much time with him since others occupied him.

It seemed she and Aegis would need to come up with some other ideas since the current opportunities were far from sufficient.

"I also want to visit the president's house..."

Saki Hayase muttered softly with a hint of disappointment.

Yuina's handsome president task was different from Iris' aid-related task; it wasn't as intense, and there wasn't much she could benefit from tagging along.

Still, she thought she could lend a hand and perhaps earn some kind of reward from the president.

After all, the president seemed to enjoy patting her head.

"Don't feel down; there'll be plenty of chances in the future."

Hikigaya patted both Saki Hayase and Sakurase Shino's heads, offered a comforting word, and then exchanged a brief farewell with Iris before preparing to leave.

In truth, it wasn't that he didn't want to thoroughly assist Iris. Both Iris and her quiet bodyguard Aegis, who were formerly elf princesses, were waiting for his help.

However, they were different from Yuina and Minami. Yuina and the others only came to reward him, so things were kept moderate. Iris, on the other hand, required his full assistance, which demanded significantly more time. [T/N: Yuina has been changed to Minami]

Iris and Aegis might even stay at his house permanently, but Yuina and the others weren't at that stage yet.

Today, he planned to complete Yuina's task first to claim the rewards from the "Continuous Progress" mission.

For now, he could handle everything, but that might not hold true in the future. Hopefully, the rewards from "Continuous Progress" would be substantial.

Otherwise, relying solely on the random daily attribute increases wouldn't be enough.

At this point, Yukinoshita Yukino, contemplating how to open up Sakurase Shino's heart, seemed to recall something. She looked at Saki Hayase, her expression stern as she reminded her:

"Saki, your issues have been resolved. You can return to the Girls' Swimming Club and no longer need to participate in the Service Club's activities."

"Huh?"

Saki Hayase looked at the calm-faced Yukinoshita Yukino, stunned.

Previously, Yukinoshita Yukino had forcibly recruited Saki Hayase into the Service Club under the pretense of lacking members to prevent her from being harassed and coerced by Miroku at school.

Now that Miwa and his accomplices had been dealt with and the Service Club's member count had been replenished with the elf princesses Iris and Aegis, along with the silent and introverted Sakurase Shino, reaching a total of five members, there was naturally no need for Saki Hayase, a member of the Girls' Swimming Club, to fill in.
