In Hentai World as Mira Tsubakihara's Relative

Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Self-Inflicted Embarrassment



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

So, after handing the milk tea to Hikari, she couldn't help but turn around and run away.

"Wait..."

Hikari extended his hand like Jack, intending to call Rose back to help him escape from the wreck like in 'Titanic'.

However, Rose drowned in a flash, leaving Hikari utterly speechless.

At this moment, Hikari was holding the milk tea, surrounded by Natsuha on his left, Reina on his right, Yukina behind him, and Ruri in front.

Goodness gracious, it was as if he was wearing armor made entirely of beautiful girls.

Holding the milk tea in his hands, surrounded once again by Akane, Hikari was left with no options.

He could only listen to Natsuha and the three gyarus bicker over petty jealousies, slowly making their way back to the classroom.

Although he felt a bit helpless, after all, they had waited for him outside the grove for quite some time.

Not an easy task. A bit of mutual understanding is warranted.

Going back to class together was just something to accept.

And so, Hikari, under the envious gazes of the passing boys, was "escorted" by the Four Bishoujo back to the classroom.

———

Meanwhile, on the other side.

As Hikari was being "escorted" back to class by the girls, Sakuramiya Hinata also ran out from the small grove.

And as soon as she emerged from the grove, Sakuramiya Hinata's gaze was naturally drawn to the most prominent figure in the crowd—the sole focus of everyone's attention at that moment.

That was Hikari, who was being surrounded by four beautiful girls.

She immediately spotted Hikari, who was currently the center of everyone's focus.

Although she found it hard to believe, Sakuramiya Hinata personally witnessed Hikari being surrounded by four beautiful girls simultaneously.

Not only that, she also saw Akane handing a milk tea to Hikari just moments ago.

This scene was simply too unbelievable.

Sakuramiya Hinata rubbed her eyes, feeling as if she were dreaming.

There were actually four beautiful girls, on par with her or even better in figure and bust size, surrounding Hikari, competing for his attention?

Was she really not dreaming?

And then there was another beautiful girl, with an exaggeratedly ample chest and an exceptional figure, who blushed as she handed milk tea to Hikari before running off shyly. This was clearly a sign of her liking Hikari as well.

Witnessing all of this, Sakuramiya Hinata gulped nervously.

It was now clear.

The scene she was seeing fully confirmed what Hikari had just said.

That is, Hikari really didn't harbor any extra thoughts about her.

With so many beautiful girls competing to impress Hikari, his astonishing charm was already evident.

A Hikari so popular among beautiful girls really might not have any interest in her, Sakuramiya Hinata.

On top of that, Hikari's undeniably handsome appearance couldn't be ignored.

Sakuramiya Hinata became acutely aware.

It seemed that Hikari truly had no reason to covet her self-perceived beauty.

At this moment, Sakuramiya Hinata's mind replayed all the things she had said to Hikari earlier.

Things like, "Are you like Tachikawa, secretly watching me all the time?"

Or, "You've been itching to take advantage of my body, haven't you?"

Or even, "If twice isn't enough, how about another round? Consider it a reward for today. You're actually enjoying this deep down, aren't you…?"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Sakuramiya Hinata tightly covered her flushed face, utterly mortified by the presumptuous things she had said earlier.

At this moment, covering her face, Sakuramiya Hinata could only be thankful that no one else had witnessed her interactions with Hikari in the grove.

Otherwise, she would have died of social shame already.

But even if it was just between Hikari and herself, it was still incredibly embarrassing.

From her flushed face down to her neck, Sakuramiya Hinata wanted nothing more than to curl up on the ground and roll around. Her constantly curling toes felt like they were about to carve out an entire three-bedroom apartment.

After the intense embarrassment and shame subsided, a strong wave of regret rose within Sakuramiya Hinata.

"Ahhhh!" Sakuramiya Hinata raised her small hand, frustratedly slapping her head.

"I'm so stupid! I'm so stupid!"

"I'm such a dumb pig!"

"Idiot, idiot, idiot! I'm such an idiot!"

"Hikari saved me, and I repaid him with such mistrust?"

"I'm such a fool! I don't deserve to live!"

Sakuramiya Hinata was overwhelmed with a mix of emotions, including anger, embarrassment, guilt, regret, and sorrow.

In short, Sakuramiya Hinata deeply regretted her earlier actions and was filled with guilt toward Hikari.

Right now, she wanted nothing more than to rush over and apologize to Hikari.

Even bow deeply to him and explain that she misunderstood him earlier, begging for his forgiveness.

But at the moment, Hikari was surrounded by Natsuha and several other beautiful girls.

How could she have the nerve to approach now and bring up such an embarrassing matter in front of everyone?

As Sakuramiya Hinata stomped her feet in frustration, a figure appeared beside her—it was her elder sister, Sakuramiya Saya.

Seeing Hinata's peculiar behavior, Sakuramiya Saya curiously asked, "Hinata, what's wrong?"

"Why are you slapping your chest and head like that? Do you have a headache? Want me to massage it for you?"

Startled by her sister's sudden appearance, Sakuramiya Hinata quickly replied, "N-no!"

"I don't have a headache, it's just... just something on my mind."

Saying this, Sakuramiya Hinata couldn't help but glance forward.

Following her gaze, Sakuramiya Saya also looked ahead.

She immediately noticed that Sakuramiya Hinata had been staring at Hikari, who was surrounded by four beautiful girls.

Upon seeing this, Sakuramiya Saya frowned slightly, her delicate eyebrows furrowing as she spoke with slight disdain, "So it's Hikari, that guy who couldn't last a few minutes practicing kyudo last time and ran off, showing no patience at all."

"Figures. Seeing that guy, you must feel annoyed and bothered, right?"

———

Staring at Hikari, who was surrounded by the four Kendo sisters, Sakuramiya Saya pouted and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, this guy actually has so many girls surrounding him."

"Indeed, I wasn't wrong about Hikari. This guy really isn't a decent person; he's so frivolous and flirtatious, just a total playboy."

"Relying on his good looks, he flirts with so many girls. Men are really no good at all."

"Our bond as sisters is the purest. It's just the two of us, and no man will ever get in between us."

Sakuramiya Hinata swallowed nervously, "Uh..."

Having just been saved by Hikari and previously misunderstanding him once, she felt that Hikari wasn't as bad as her sister made him out to be. She didn't want to hear her sister badmouthing him like this, but she also didn't know how to explain it at the moment.

Sakuramiya Saya, not hearing any rebuttal from Sakuramiya Hinata, naturally assumed her younger sister agreed with her as usual.

Thinking it over, Sakuramiya Saya believed she roughly understood why Hinata was troubled. She said, "Sigh, I get it. Hinata, you're bothered because you have to go to the Kyudo Club after school and tutor Hikari, right?"

"Uh... kind of... I guess?" Sakuramiya Hinata absentmindedly replied, brushing off Saya's words.

Though what Saya said was completely opposite to what she was actually thinking.

With their level of archery skills, how could they be qualified to tutor Hikari? If anything, it should be the other way around.

But hearing this, Sakuramiya Hinata suddenly remembered something.

Previously, the president of the Kyudo Club had assigned her and her sister to guide Hikari in archery after he joined. He even asked them to add Hikari's contact information.

At the time, both Sakuramiya Saya and Hinata felt annoyed and reluctant because they didn't like men—if not outright disliked them.

But now, Sakuramiya Hinata felt a hint of relief.

Thank goodness she had added Hikari's contact. Otherwise, she wouldn't even know how to apologize to him.

Ignoring Saya's continued attempts at conversation, Sakuramiya Hinata quickly pulled out her phone.

"Hikari-kun, I misunderstood you earlier today. I'm sorry! You helped me so much, yet I treated you so poorly. I feel so guilty..."

Hinata composed a long message filled with apologies and gratitude and sent it to Hikari.

Meanwhile, Hikari, already inside the school building, felt his phone vibrate.

He casually pulled it out to glance at it, then emotionlessly stuffed it back into his pocket.

As he had said before, he wasn't interested in Sakuramiya Hinata, the proverbial lily. Helping her was mainly for the "Bull Slayer" pure love points and rewards.

He wouldn't get upset over the views of such a naive girl; he really didn't care.

To put it in a more dramatic way: "Saving you has nothing to do with you," or "The Lord knows; the Lord doesn't mind," and so on.

So, after a glance, Hikari indifferently chose to ignore her.

But while Hikari didn't care, Sakuramiya Hinata cared a lot.

After sending her lengthy apology message, she held her phone tightly, but no reply came from Hikari, leaving her anxious.

It was like a teenager confessing to their crush online and anxiously waiting for a reply.

Although Hinata felt she didn't have a crush on Hikari to that extent, her anxiety wasn't far off.

If Hikari had simply saved her, she would have been immensely grateful but wouldn't keep thinking about it.

However, the situation was different. After being saved, she had deeply misunderstood him and treated him poorly.

That left Hinata filled with guilt.

And with Hikari ignoring her, her guilt only grew, bit by bit.

It was like recalling an embarrassing moment in front of classmates or friends from years ago and still feeling shame and discomfort.

That sense of self-imposed embarrassment, combined with the guilt of not repaying a kindness, was too tormenting. It made Hinata unable to let go, lingering in her thoughts.

So even though Hikari didn't respond to her apology, Hinata wasn't angry. She continued to send several more messages, apologizing or trying to start a conversation.

Meanwhile, after receiving the second repetitive message, Hikari decided not to check any further messages from her.

Hinata ended up sending over a dozen more messages without getting any reply. Left with no choice, she finally had to stop.
