“Well, I think that I’m the same as Yura-san and I’m more suited to physical work.”
I completely agreed to Yura-san’s words. For me, moving my body around was more relaxing than working on documents.
“That’s a good reply, which is why we’re going to do some moving work. Also, it’s fine to just call me Yura.”
So that’s how it was, moving things. It was certainly simple and easy to understand. Speaking of which, the Student Council even did these kinds of things huh. Next, me and Yura-san…Yura as well as Meguri-san arrived at the staff room together to receive the teacher’s instructions, which was to move some goods to a certain location.
“Okay, that’s done now.”
After moving a load of goods, Yura exhaled, and I also took a break. Although moving things wasn’t particularly tiring, helping the Student Council out with things was quite tiring. I kept on thinking ‘Although this is only temporary, I can’t do anything strange as a member of the Student Council’, and was rather nervous about it. The two girls flexed their shoulders and wrists. Yura then announced
“Okay, we should get down to business next.”
“Business?”
After hearing my surprised question, a suspicious smile emerged on Yura’s face.
“Hyoudou, for people like us who do physical work, the next task is a critical one. Alright, let’s head over to the club room.”
Meguri-san continued with the topic
“Going to confirm whether suspicious rumours about various groups are true is also the work of the Student Council. Especially since this is the time before the School Festival, it’s best to deal with the groups which plan to conduct improper activities during the School Festival prior.”
“A surprise attack like this is the most effective. Hohoho, we’ll start with the cultural groups.”
It felt like Yura was quite happy. Meguri-san sighed.
“She likes doing these kinds of things the most.”
I-Is that the case? My Occult Research Club could also be considered a cultural club, that doesn’t matter, right? Like that, I followed behind Yura and Meguri-san, and made surprise attacks on the cultural clubs whilst they were making their preparations.
“Official inspection! We’re the Student Council!”
Then, we started with that line each time—.
The story returns back to the beginning.
Yura, Meguri-san and I made surprise visits to each of the various cultural clubs. The bad rumours of each club were exposed by us one after the other — well, investigating further, it wasn’t just the Chess Club at the beginning, the groups who secretly broke the school rules were really everywhere…. I-I was in no position to talk about others, but all of the other guys were really presumptuous. As for the Sports Clubs, after the surprise inspections, we tied them up on the ground (anyone that tried to run away was swiftly caught and brought back by us), and then used the bamboo swords that Meguri-san had to discipline them on the spot. …After all, it was impossible for ordinary people to beat us Devils. Most of the students understood that resisting the Student Council was useless, so there were a lot of people who instantly sank into despair and gave up as soon as they saw Yura and Meguri-san. Well, there were occasionally a few people who tried to resist or escape. Of course, there were a lot of people who could only exclaim “It’s not Saji!” when they saw me. I’m substituting Saji today, so I’m sorry everyone. …Please don’t hold any grudges against me afterwards!
This kind of inspection didn’t seem like it could be done on a fixed date, it was most effective only when it was sudden. If the inspection was scheduled only to occur on the first day of the week or the first day of the month, those guys would only act honestly on the day of the inspection, and would act as they liked on the other days. Giving these people the impression that they were subject to a sudden inspection by the Student Council was very important. Yura and Meguri-san explained this to me afterwards. But, I was able to understand more or less why Yura enjoyed this. Ah, although I couldn’t say that my feelings were exactly the same as Yura, this kind of work in which we exposed the misconduct of other groups in the name of the Student Council really gave us a sense of pleasure. It was nice to borrow such a power and authority. Although it may not be a very good feeling, I enjoyed using the Student Council’s authority like this a bit.
—-Then, we arrived at the Manga Research Club. The rumours were that students were reading H-manga. It seems like they also secretly held an exhibition at last year’s School Festival, because I heard that those H-manga were sold out in the blink of an eye. What kind of H-manga would they sell at the School Festival…I also wanted to see and buy them! So, this was naturally targeted by the Student Council as they thought ‘Would they also engage in that this year?’.
“The Manga Research Club often seems to secretly draw some questionable manga for ordinary students to read.”
Yura said to me. T-Those kinds of rumours. Even I, who was well-informed on the H information of Kuoh Academy hadn’t heard of that!? Matsuda, Motohama, as members of the H circulation network, you guys also didn’t know? …The Student Council is too terrifying! This is such a powerful intelligence network! Arriving before the Manga Research Club on the third floor of the new school building, Yura, Meguri-san and I nodded as we exchanged a glance, and then lightly knocked on the door. Soon after that, a voice replied ‘come in’, and the door was opened.
“Uh! Student Council.”
The male student with glasses was surprised to see Yura, and everyone else within the room began to panic!
“Not good! Hide it quickly!”
Then, the members of the manga club seemed to be busy hiding something—. Yura pushed aside the spectacled boy and shouted
“We’re from the Student Council! I’ve heard that you’ve been making suspicious manga and spreading it around to students, and thus came here!”
Yura strode into the room, while Meguri-san and I followed behind, after which she pointed to a girl who appeared to be the buchou[4] and said
“We need to inspect your manga. Alright, hand over all of the manga in this room.”
“…Okay.”
The manga club’s buchou replied calmly, and then gave instructions to all of the members. The members then shakily handed over each of their originals. The three of us then carefully inspected each of these originals. Among these were those which ranged from hot-blooded shounen manga to four-koma manga. There was also shoujo manga.[5] But—.
“…It’s ordinary manga.”
Those were Yura’s, and also my thoughts. Mmm, it’s very ordinary manga. Although the quality of the art didn’t seem like the product of a high school student, there were also some ecchi parts, but there weren’t any explicit H works? I was kind of looking forward to it, as I thought that I would be able to see a lot of H things…. Were all those poor rumours about the manga club just lies? At that time, I heard the conversation between Meguri-san and a female club member.
“W-Why is the beast Hyoudou-kun here…?”
“Our member Saji Genshirou has the flu. So, he’s acting as a substitute and has come from the Occult Research Club to work with us.”
“Shouldn’t Kiba-kun be the one to come!?”
“Indeed, it should be like that.”
“If it was for a surprise inspection, it would be better if it was Kiba-kun.”
The female members were crying! I’m really sorry, it’s me! Even so, I am the candidate that kaichou picked herself! After inspecting all of the members’ manga, none of us found anything in the end. The manga club buchou showed a relieved expression.
“See, there’s nothing right? Okay, please head out.”
The manga club president began waving her hand to send us away. Just in the moment where it seemed as if the Student Council had to believe the outcome that the rumours were mistaken — Meguri-san’s interest was suddenly piqued by a certain computer tower which sat on the floor as her eyes homed in on it. She walked over to it, and began to examine it carefully.
“Hmm, Tsubasa. This thing is suspicious, only this computer has traces of dust from being moved around.”
She then invited Yura over to take a look. Ah, so Yura’s first name was Tsubasa. Yura and I also walked over and began to carefully inspect that computer, and confirmed that only the dust on that computer didn’t match up…
“I-Inside that is…”
One of the members accidentally let their mouth slip.
“Idiot!”
The manga club buchou immediately interrupted him; there was a problem in here!
“This response…Hyoudou-kun! Block those guys!”
“U-Understood!”
Hearing Yura’s instructions, I inserted myself between those two and the manga club members, acting as a wall between the two parties. After the computer tower’s case was opened, several thin booklets were found inside. Ooh, so that’s where they were hidden…! Meguri-san had very attentive eyes! That was the power of the Student Council!
“Don’t, stooopp!”
The manga club buchou cried out! Yura opened the thin booklets and examined them carefully.
“…This is the thing that you guys were hiding. I see…t-this is!”
After checking it, Yura opened the booklet and held it up in front of all of the manga club members.
“Found it! Manga Research Club! This is evidence of the rumours!”
Shown on it was — a character that looked like me and a character that looked like Kiba, entangled with each other doing H things! WHAT IS THIS! I quickly ran over and grabbed the booklet from Yura’s hands and looked at it carefully! …A-All of it was me and Kiba doing gay and yaoi[6] things! The title on the cover was [Beast Hyoudou x Prince Kiba-kun 15]! Fifteen!? Could this be the fifteenth series!? This is the fifteenth volume!? This kind of thing is already up to the fifteenth volume!? Putting the shaken me aside, Yura made her conclusion to the manga club.
“This is clearly a homoerotic manga which is in violation of the school rules.”
Hearing this, the manga club buchou began to make excuses.
“A-Are you trying to take away our freedom of expression!? T-This is a violation of the Freedom of Information!”
“I don’t have any opinions on your work, however, I hope that you don’t hand these out to ordinary students.”
“B-But, there a lot of girls in Kuoh Academy waiting for this…the love story of the beast and prince!”
I don’t want to hear that kind of information! This can’t be for real! This kind of manga with me and Kiba has been secretly circulating around Kuoh Academy!? Moreover, it’s already been serialised into the fifteenth volume! That must have required a lot of popularity! The demand for it is too high! Although I was aware that some girls used to see my relationship with Kiba as girl-corrupting, I didn’t think that it had become a manga, let alone that manga being so popular… I see, I know why there was H-manga secretly circulating around the school without me knowing about it now. BL[7] is outside of my information network, so of course something unrelated wouldn’t reach my ears! Only the girls must have known about it! How could this be! I found out about the truth of a situation that I didn’t want to know about!
“In any case, these need to be confiscated, and you’ll need to report to supervising sensei afterwards.”
Yura said that as she confiscated those thin booklets. Yes yes, take them all away! It’s best if they’re burnt right away.
“Uhh…! It can’t be helped! This series became popular since this spring, and now it’s finally succumbed to the authorities!”
The manga club buchou knelt on the floor in tears, and the other members also had regretful looks and moist eyes. Then, that buchou turned towards me.
“Please! There’s only one thing that you definitely have tell me! In that case, I won’t have any regrets! Hyoudou-kun! I’m begging you, please answer my question!”
“So, what is it?”
“In reality, you and Kiba-kun, who’s the attacker and who’s the receiver!? I want to know the truth!”
“WHO THE HELL KNOWS!”
Help me destroy this BL club! I strongly wished that from the bottom of my heart. I’m really begging you to give me a break…
Part 2
“Haah…. Overall, I felt happy, but also tired…”
I sighed in front of the sink in the nearest men’s bathroom to the Student Council Office. …The Student Council’s work had a very interesting side, but I was also dealt a heavy blow because I found out about the truth of something that I didn’t want to know about. Not even the first day of after school activities was done yet…. It’s fine, I’m just here as a substitute for Saji right now, so I’ll just continue to work hard. —Then, when I came out of the men’s bathroom. I bumped into the bespectacled fukukaichou Shinra Tsubaki-senpai with her usual straight face.
“Oh, it’s Hyoudou Issei-kun.”
“Ah, hello fukukaichou.”
Senpai was a cold beauty above even the kaichou. Although she was a bit of a beauty, her overall impression was slightly scary. Honestly, she was the type that I wasn’t good at dealing with.
“You seem to be taking the Student Council’s work quite seriously. Although I was a little worried about whether you would be able to be a good substitute for Saji…”
“I-I see…”
Up until now, I still haven’t gained this person’s trust? I suddenly saw a flash of light shine across Shinra-senpai’s glasses.
“Hyoudou-kun.”
“Ah, yes.”
“I think you’re excellent as a Devil. After all, you’ve experienced the battles with Loki and in Kyoto and have even emerged victorious.”
Ah, I’ve been praised. That was rather unexpected. As I thought that, fukukaichou frowned as she continued
“But, having strong sexual desires is not a good thing. Don’t you think that as a male high school student, you should have the appropriate mind and body? Seeking only to raise your perversion by developing related techniques, it’s simply stupid. You’re already the peerage member of a high-class Devil, so don’t you feel that you have an obligation to make your master appear more honest and wise in front of others?”
“Y-Yes…”
She seems to have accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction towards me…Shinra-senpai really was a typical honour student, the class representative type. Her expression was one which seemed as if she completely missed the point of a fun topic, and she certainly wouldn’t have a boyfriend.
“Originally, as the master of the Gremory peerage, Rias-san is too bold and too cheerful, she’s simply too indulgent on her free-spirited peerage, and not just those in her peerage, but also to other people—”
“Oh? It’s Ise-kun — and Shinra-senpai.”
Shinra-senpai’s eyes trembled unstoppably like a machine gun, as a handsome guy appeared behind me.
“Ah, Kiba.”
Yes, it was Kiba. It was quite a coincidence to encounter him here. The pitch of Shinra-senpai’s voice suddenly increased.
“K-K-K-K-Kiba-kun…. Ahem, if it isn’t Kiba Yuuto-kun. What have you come here for?”
Senpai deliberately cleared her throat so that she could change her tone of voice, it seems like she’s quite shaken. …T-This is really quite a fresh reaction. Kiba made a wry smile then answered
“No, I’m just a bit worried about Ise-kun. So I came over to the new school building to take a look, but there isn’t anything else to do here in particular.”
He’s still the same guy with a great sense of obligation. Or perhaps I just make people worried? Shinra-senpai reluctantly put on a smile.
“T-There’s no need to worry about that right? Hyoudou-kun is doing a very good job. He’s been a great help to the Student Council! The boys of the Occult Research Club are really strong and worth relying on!”
…Shinra-senpai, isn’t that completely the opposite of what you just said? Speaking of which, she’s been acting rather strangely ever since Kiba showed up. Her trembling face has become really red, could this reaction possible be…? While speaking with Kiba, Shinra-senpai appeared to be like a young deer prancing around, and her attitude was the complete opposite of when she was speaking to me. Shinra-senpai was really like a maiden in love, as she pointed her two index fingers against each other in front of her chest and asked
“…I-I have something that I’d like to ask.”
“Okay, what is it?”
“…K-Kiba-kun, right now, do you h-h-h-ha-have any girls that you’re in an r-relationship with…?”
Ooh! She asked about it directly! Even I could see Shinra-senpai’s feelings at a glance in that moment! It was too obvious! The Shinra-senpai who seemed so serious and intellectual also had a maiden in love side like this to her! It’s true that one can’t judge a book just by their cover! Kiba maintained the smile on his face, but he lifted his eyebrows a bit with a slightly troubled expression.
“That…I don’t have anything like that.”
Kiba’s reply caused Shinra-senpai’s face to light up. Ah, senpai is so cute like this.
“Y-Yes, I see! I-I understand! Ahem, it’s really fortunate that I was able to speak with Kiba-kun and Hyoudou-kun today. I still have some work to do so I’ll go first, good afternoon.”
After Shinra-senpai said that, she walked with joyful steps towards the other end of the corridor and disappeared. Midway, she even turned back and waved at us, so it seemed like she was really in quite a good mood. …Even though her tone and attitude when she saw me before was quite serious….
“Hahaha, ever since the match with the Sitri peerage, Shinra-senpai always spoke to me quite gingerly, could it be because I said too many things about the aura of holy swords to her during that battle…”
Kiba scratched his face and said such thoughtless words.
“I think that an intellectual beauty is also pretty good.”
I replied like that to him as I pat his shoulder.
