121 Visiting the Sick ④ Ninja and Miko

I reached the 6th floor, the top floor of the hospital, and immediately found the hospital room I was looking for. At the same time, I also found an unexpected surprise――

“Uwaa……this is bad……”

The problem was the patient in room 601. The name “Aiba Soji” was there. That’s good. It’s going according to plan. But――why is “Kazamaru” listed here too!?

Abo――ッ！？

This is too suspicious, I can’t go in!？

I was worried in front of the hospital room!!

Then――

“Um……do you have business in this hospital room?”

“Ge――!? ……Mikogami, Chuya……ッ”

“?”

I bumped into Mikogami Chuya, who came to visit Kazamaru, from behind!! The other person is oblivious!! They don’t know I’m Ishizuru Shoma!!

The memory that resurfaced in my mind was the day of the 1st-year student attack incident. I was suspected of being the mastermind by Mikogami and accused……ッ！ The wound from that day still hurts deeply and pierces my chest……！！

If possible, I don’t want to meet this person.

Luckily, the other person doesn’t know I’m Shoma. I’ll pretend to be a harmless passerby and somehow escape from this situation――ッ！！

I was determined, and at that moment――

“Hare……！?”

The door opened suddenly, and I fell into room 601!!

What is this, a new trap!?？

Why do only the hospital rooms on this floor have automatic doors!？

“Ah――ッ！！”

While cursing my own unlucky constitution, I fell into room 601.

“What’s going on――ッ！？」

“Kazamaru! Someone has fallen――!”

“Huh? This person is……Ishizuru Shoma――ッ！？」

“Eh――！？」

I heard the two people’s shocked voices. As I lay on the floor, gazing up at the unfamiliar ceiling, I felt a sense of unease about the upcoming developments and bit my lip――

◆

“Is that so? You’ve come to visit Sōya-sama?”

“Ah, yeah… I never thought I’d be in the same room as A-group’s Orihime.”

“Kirimaru! Don’t trust this person! They must be plotting something again…”

Mikogami is defending the injured Orihime, biting her lip. She’s usually a kind and gentle lady who can’t even kill a bug, but now she’s furious with me. What have I done to make her so angry? Ah, it’s because of Ishizuru Shinma… In that case, it can’t be helped… Haha!

I can’t help but mock myself.

“…However, it seems like I’m not the only one who’s been unconscious.”

I focus on the bed next to Orihime’s. There, connected to tubes, lies Sōya Sōji’s injured body. He’s covered in wounds. Who could have done this to him?

“I, a humble servant, watched the class competition video in the hospital room. Sōya-sama seems to have received the Hyakusai’s curse technique on his body.”

“The curse technique? Ah, you mean ‘Hikoboshi’?”

“Do you know about it?”

“I should, since I almost fell victim to it too.”

That curse technique was terrifying, wasn’t it? Orihime’s original form is still intact, so he’s one of the lucky ones.

“You’re indeed the one who led D-group to first place. I, a humble servant, was allowed to witness Ishizuru-sama’s fighting spirit, but… it was truly terrifying…”

“Is that so?”

When put that way, I feel a bit embarrassed.

“The moment when you were surrounded by the class leaders, on the brink of death. Who would have thought that you’d be the only one to survive… It seems like Ishizuru-sama knew his opponents’ actions beforehand. I, Orihime, am deeply impressed.”

It was all just a coincidence, though…

Well, since they’re praising me, I won’t deny it. I’ll just keep quiet for now.

I’ll just sparkle my eyes.

Orihime Kirimaru is a good guy, isn’t he? Really.

“Uh, Orihime… are you okay? Are your injuries from the Hyakusai’s technique healed?”

“Then, it’s all good! Orihime is perfectly fine. You can go back to being Senya-sama’s guard right away!”

“Orihime!”

“Guh…!”

As I try to turn around, Orihime protects his injured right arm and falls onto the bed.

…It seems like he’s still far from fully recovering.

“You mustn’t overexert yourself!! You need to rest and recover now!!”

“…I’m, I’m ashamed…”

From noble mtl dot nete

Mikogami casts a recovery-type divine technique on Orihime, who’s in pain. It’s the 【Yōmeikō】 skill, which slightly recovers physical and mental strength, and cures all abnormal status effects. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work on bone fractures… or rather, the technique to instantly repair bones is a high-level skill that’s not yet widespread in this world.

“…I’ve caused you trouble. I’ll leave now.”

Mikogami supports Orihime, who’s slightly calmed down. I’m clearly a nuisance. There’s no need for me to stay longer…

――And, I need to ask this one thing before I leave.

As I try to leave the hospital room, I turn around to face the two.

“Mikogami, when will Orihime’s injuries heal?”

“…The doctor says it’ll take three months…”

I see. Three months, huh.

“…Could it be earlier than that?”

“Huh?”

“Well, see you later then…”

Before I was asked, I retreated from the hospital room.

……And A-group’s Oriya was added, too.

It’s going to get busy from now on, isn’t it?

That’s what I thought at that moment—

“Hey? What’s the hurry, huh—?”

“……Huh?”

I turned around, and there was Touka.

And that feeling.

That pressure.

No mistake about it……!

Ecchi, Succubus mode, no way!?

“You seem to know a lot? You have something to report, and—let’s go to the rooftop?”

H-h-h-h-how, y-y-you’re calling me—ッ！！

S-s-s-squeezing me—ッ！！

I can’t refuse, of course! Because I’m being held hostage by that person, with my beloved Jr. as collateral!!

Collateral, not a gem……?

No, who cares about that right now?!

“Are you coming with me……?”

Touka whispers to me threateningly, her left hand moving seductively as if grasping something, and my dandy remote control is going crazy because of her movements! H-h-h-h-help, I’m scared—ッ！！

“I-I-I’m going to die—ッ！！”

I shout out involuntarily.

There was no choice, nowhere to go—
