Possessed As the Butler of a Defeated Heroine - Possessed As the Butler of a Defeated Heroine chapter 181

181 – Day 2 of the School Trip (1)

What subjects are Koreans most confident in?

… I think that’s something in the realm of competition.

Whether it was a sport or a game.

Offering something that stimulated competitive spirit was in itself a challenge.

Unfortunately, Amelia ended up touching the sensitive side of Koreans.

Hyunjin had no intention of avoiding the challenge he was facing.

The archery battle that took place like that did not last long.

At least Ayako’s performance was comparable to Hyunjin’s, but she could not match Hyunjin’s skills her

The first few shots missed the target, but thanks to watching Ayako do it and learning on the spot, no matter how many shots I fired, I hit the same spot.

Seeing this, Amelia, Ayako, and Ohana thought that Hyunjin’s abilities made no sense.

In the end, the group, who lost easily in archery, had no choice but to accept the result after trying Hyunjin a few more times.

No matter what you do, picking a fight with Hyunjin is foolish.

***

The night before, after archery was over, I went straight back to my room and went to sleep.

The next day, after eating the meal provided by the hotel, we headed to the next tourist destination as scheduled.

On the second day of the school trip, the first place we visited was the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest located at Sagatenryuji Temple in Kyoto.

Perhaps because it was the season, a cool breeze blew even though it was morning.

“It’s cool~”

While walking through the bamboo forest with her group, Ohana smiled and said.

An easy hour here too. In fact, it was a distance that could be explored leisurely in about 10 or 20 minutes, so the academy gave us about 40 minutes to explore.

“Maybe it’s because I’ve never seen a forest like this even in the UK, but it’s definitely unique.”

Amelia muttered with an expression of interest.

Maybe it’s a dense forest, but Amelia’s home country of her, England, certainly doesn’t have bamboo forests like that.

The only places with bamboo forests are Korea, Japan, and China.

Hyunjin thought so and expanded on her sentiments.

“Definitely, it’s been quite a while since I saw a bamboo forest.”

“What? Hyunjin, do you think there is something similar where you live?”

Hyunjin answered Amelia’s question by nodding her head.

“In Damyang… So, in Korea, where I lived, there is a place name called Damyang. There is a place called Juknokwon… “

“Ah! All right. “That’s the bamboo forest, right?”

“That’s right, it’s similar to the Arashiyama bamboo forest.”

Amelia nodded her head in understanding. I like it like this. Cute!

It was still lovely to see him thoughtfully considering things.

The moment Amelia turned her gaze to Hyunjin and their eyes met.

‘No, I shouldn’t think like this now?’

Being virtuous and being lovely are two different things.

While the former is usually about giving unrequited attention, the latter is closer to hoping for something in return.

“That’s strange, Hyunjin. For some reason, I often feel like I’m being looked at as a degenerate. And maybe now?”

“It’s a misunderstanding, that.”

“Well, it’s okay. “Can you at least take a picture?”

“Oh, of course.”

“No. Just you and me.”

Hyunjin said with a puzzled expression because he didn’t expect Amelia to attack him so suddenly.

“To… “What?”

“Did you even eat your ears? “You couldn’t even hear me properly ask you to take a picture with me?”

“No, I’m not deaf… “

As Hyunjin answered Amelia, she looked at Ryunosuke next to her out of the corner of her eye.

She had a confused expression.

“Then next time, I’ll take a picture together.”

“I want to take a picture of Kanade too!”

Ohana took a picture with a smart phone in Daesin.

Hyunjin and Amelia stood side by side with the bamboo forest behind them.

Amelia was crossing her arms with a slightly sulky expression, and Hyunjin was behind her with a strict, solemn, yet quite serious expression.

“Come on, both of you! Let’s go with a light smile on our faces!”

When Ohana pointed out her expression, Amelia smiled awkwardly.

“I’ll take a picture~!”

Click.

After Ohana took a picture of the two, she quickly handed Amelia her smartphone and then she snuggled up next to Hyunjin.

“Then I’ll ask you a favor!”

“Now, wait! Hana-chan, you! “Isn’t it too tight?”

Amelia said to Ohana as if complaining.

Absolutely, unlike Amelia, Ohana did not try to hide herself.

Rather, both Hyunjin and Amelia could not hide their embarrassment at Ohana’s attitude her, which was a bit more proactive than usual.

‘This… ‘ … ‘Why is he like this all of a sudden?’

When Hyunjin also looked embarrassed, Ohana suddenly puffed out her cheeks and said.

“Friends can just link arms, but aren’t you overreacting? “Ria-chan.”

Ohana raised the corners of her eyes like a cat and laughed.

So much so that it almost feels like Mesugaki or a small devil.

“Isn’t it vulgar, what are you doing now?”

“Why do you think this is obscene, Ria-chan?”

“Ugh… !”

Ohana countered Amelia’s words in a calm tone.

Naturally, Amelia couldn’t even respond properly.

Amelia’s entire logic was blocked by just saying that she was a friend of hers.

‘Joe, okay. I said it for the first time… !’

Ohana, who had been hesitant in front of others until then, gained courage.

Hyunjin had no choice but to accept it, even though he smiled with an embarrassed expression.

She felt Amelia’s stinging gaze her her her, but she soon sighed.

“Really… “Ehu.”

She said she didn’t know anymore and Amelia took a picture of her.

Next were Kanade and Aisha, pulling Hyunjin’s arm at the same time and speaking.

“I take pictures too!”

“Ehehe.”

Kanade was drawing a V with one hand with an excited expression, and Aisha was smiling as if she was in a good mood and wrapped her arms around Hyunjin.

‘Should I say it feels like I have a younger sister or a daughter? … ‘

Hyunjin’s actual age is in his late 20s. If you think about it, she might be closer to her younger sister, but that’s a good thing.

Right now, I just want to quickly run away from the stinging gaze I feel on the back of my head.

Only after taking a picture with Kanade and Aisha on either side of him was Hyunjin able to free himself from the gaze.

“Hey, you guys. “Would you mind taking a picture with me, even with the poor graduate?”

As Sojuro continued to flirt, the female companions turned their heads and pretended not to notice.

“Wow, why can’t it work! Seaweed! “I did as you said!”

“What makes you think you did what I told you to do? …”

“I don’t know, so take responsibility!”

“What are you responsible for?”

“Kaak!”

Sojuro finally ran towards her Hyunjin and attempted a power show by holding both of her hands together.

As Hyunjin and Sojuro got into a light fight, their time in the bamboo forest began to come to an end.

The next destination was a traditional Japanese theater performance hall on Gion Street.

It looks like they are going to the geisha district of Gion Street in the evening.

The group got off the bus. During the morning hours, it seems that Hoshizora Academy had rented the performance hall, so one side was almost deserted.

‘After all, having a lot of money feels different.’

Hoshizora must have contacted us in advance, so it’s not just a financial issue, but there may be something behind the scenes that Hyunjin doesn’t know about.

The staff calmly guided the students into the performance hall, and as the students took their seats one by one, it looked like the screening was about to start in about 5 minutes.

Of course, he was given some food when he came in, but for some reason it felt familiar, so Hyunjin was sweating coldly.

She couldn’t help but be taken aback by the sight of Ayako calmly settling down next to her.

“Hehe, now I can finally be by your side calmly.”

“Oh, Aya-chan? How did you get here… “

“Ah-chan, wouldn’t it be possible to watch the performance together?”

“I really am. You… “It’s a hindrance.”

Amelia grumbled so quietly that no one could hear and then stopped.

“Anyway, this reminds me of the time we all went to see Noh theater together the other day.”

At Hyunjin’s thoughtless comment, Ayako, Amelia, and Ohana all turned their gaze towards Hyunjin at the same time.

“Huh? Did I say something wrong?”

“… Sure. “I made a mistake.”

Ayako responded to Hyunjin’s words.

‘Was there anything that could be called a slip of the tongue?’

As Hyunjin looked like he wasn’t sure, Ayako spoke again.

“I think it’s best to only say things like that when we’re alone. There is no mood, there is no mood.”

When Hyunjin was scolded by Ayako like that, Hyunjin looked momentarily dejected.

“Ah, it’s starting!”

At Ohana’s words her her her her her her her her her her her her began to focus on the performance.
