NEET Receives a Dating Sim Game Leveling System
chapter-36

"He’s… really a boy?" Chiaki had hollow eyes as she stared at Hoshi: "I feel like… I’ve lost…"

Don’t admit defeat so readily, Prince Wakaba!

"I think… he’s more feminine than most girls…" Mika muttered to herself .

Don’t let your worldview become warped, Mika!

Hoshi Amami’s appearance was quite a blow to both girls .

That was evidence of just how striking Hoshi’s appearance was as a trap .

‘Okay, calm down . ’ Seiji forced himself to cool off .

He didn’t want to meet this person at school since he didn’t want to attract strange gazes from everyone, but… evidently that wouldn’t be possible anymore, so he could only accept it .

Or should he harden his heart and chase him away?

No . That wasn’t an option because Seiji wasn’t a bastard who would harm his friends’ feelings just because of strangers’ opinions .

Yes, even though he was rather annoying, Hoshi Amami was still his friend, not to mention an otaku friend that was so difficult to come by .

"You could have just called or texted me if you wanted to talk," Seiji said as he opened his own lunchbox .

"Although that works as well, I wanted to see Senpai in person… I kept imagining what it would be like to eat together with Senpai at school . " Hoshi took out his lunchbox as well .

"Why… does it feel like I’m still at the confectionery store?" Seiji sighed, "Also, I said it before as well, right? You need to be more aware of your own actions and appearance . Stop saying things that are easy for others to misunderstand, otherwise you’ll become food for otakus like ourselves . For instance, in the store, being stared at by everyone makes you uncomfortable as well, right?"

"Mm… even though it’s a slightly odd feeling, but if it’s Senpai…" Hoshi looked at Seiji, "I think… I can accept it . . . I wouldn’t mind . "

"Please, don’t just accept it! Pay more attention to yourself, bastard!!" Seiji commented forcefully again .

"Okay~" Hoshi giggled . It was evident that he was enjoying this conversation .

‘Harano-senpai… he’s so amazing, he always speaks his mind, and says what he believes is right… Even though he obviously dislikes being stared at by girls fantasizing about BL, he cares more about his friendship with me! He’s… such an awesome friend and senpai!’

If Seiji had the ability to see Hoshi’s favorability rating towards him, he would have discovered that this conversation was causing Hoshi’s feelings towards him to skyrocket… and he definitely would have seriously considered chasing this guy away .

But unfortunately for him, Hoshi Amami was a "cute boy", not a "beautiful girl," so the system didn’t give him any notifications!

Chiaki and Mika were affected by Seiji’s calm acceptance of the situation and returned to their senses as well .

However, the sight of Seiji chatting away with an impossibly beautiful boy was exceedingly difficult for them to swallow . . .

"Chiaki… could it be that… Seigo likes that type?" Mika’s imagination was running wild, and her face turned ashen white .

"No… take a closer look—they don’t have that type of relationship . But… I gotta say that this sight is . . . rather ambiguous and easy to misunderstand . It’s probably a delicious banquet for some girls as well . " Chiaki sighed deeply .

"If you want to change the impression you leave on others, you can ask your Wakaba-senpai here—she’s the ace of the drama club…"

Seiji’s clever sentence brought Chiaki into their conversation, and he subsequently manoevered Mika into joining their discussion .

With Seiji leading the conversation, Hoshi began familiarizing himself with Chiaki and Mika .

However, the short-lived calmness was soon to be disturbed .

"We found him, Rion . "

"We got him, Kotomi . "

Footsteps approached together accompanied by the melodious voices of two unfamiliar people .

The four of them glanced at the approaching figures and widened their eyes in surprise upon doing so .

"Rion and Kotomi!?" Hoshi Amami was shocked, and his face paled visibly in fright: "Why… why are you two here!?"

"Kotomi, our little bro’s expression is so amusing!"

"Yep, Rion, he looks just like a puppy that was caught stealing food!"

The identical twin sisters giggled in unison . The only difference between the two seductresses was the way in which they wore their side ponytails . Every other feature was completely identical; they both had thin eyebrows, cyan-colored eyes, and soft red lips . They were both tall and slender with bodacious chests . Either one of them by herself would be a top-class beauty, and if they appeared together, they would inevitably attract everyone’s attention with their devilish figures and stunning looks!

"Twins? They’re both so pretty…" Mika’s eyes became unfocused once more .

"Could they be… the ‘twin witches’? The legendary second-years…" Chiaki muttered to herself .

‘Hey hey, didn’t that sound like an immature teenager’s nickname?’ Seiji tilted his head in curiousity .

They were indeed twin beauties, just as Hoshi had told him .

Nevertheless… their smiles were somewhat disconcerting, as per Hoshi’s words .

"Twin witches?" He glanced questioningly at Chiaki .

"They’re the legendary twin sisters from high school second-year . It’s said that they’re endowed with both beauty and intelligence, and they’ve toyed with the feelings of countless boys… It’s just a rumor, though; I don’t know for certain," Chiaki whispered to him .

"Have you met them before?"

"No, I’ve only heard about them . "

"What do you think after meeting them?"

"I think I understand why they have such an infamous nickname and the various rumors surrounding them . "

Those twins were quite pretty, but there was definitely something unsettling about the duo .

Those twins were quite pretty, but there was definitely something unsettling about the duo .

Chiaki and Seiji silently agreed on this point .

Only the relatively innocent Mika remained oblivious .

"Why are you guys here!?" Hoshi questioned his sisters warily .

"Our amusing brother asks such amusing questions as well," Rion started .

"This is the high school section, and we’re second-year high schoolers," Kotomi continued .

"We can go wherever we like in the high school section . " Rion stated .

"But as for our cute brother…" Kotomi began .

"Why would you be here?" They finished together .

The two of them finished each other’s sentences, and the last sentence was completely synchronized . Their voices overlapped perfectly with each other; even the small action of putting their index fingers over their lips was exactly the same .

There was an unusual beauty about their synchronistic actions .

"Oh…" Hoshi Amami furrowed his eyebrows and was about to retreat out of habit, but he thought about how the person that had been encouraging him was standing beside him, and a burst of courage welled up inside him .

"I’m just here… to find a friend!" He stood up straight and exclaimed, "Sisters, if you would like to talk to me, my apologies—I’m busy right now… If you’re just taking a walk, then feel free to continue!"

His tone of voice sounded normal and was filled with spirit; there was not a trace of fear to be found .

However, for the twins, this was a truly unusual occurrence .

Their little puppy with such a weak, cowardly, and soft personality—the puppy that had always been under their control—dared to have such an attitude towards them!

Strange—it was too out of the norm .

Strange—it was too out of the norm .

Interesting—this was truly fascinating .

Even though Rion and Kotomi Amami felt like their little puppy was barking at them, they were still enjoying the experience .

That was because they had met someone worthy of their interest: the student who had caused this unusual phenomenon .

"Chiaki Wakaba, the first-year ace of the drama club . "

"Mika Uehara, the first-year ace of the tennis club, although you recently quit . "

They walked past their puppy, looking at the people behind him as they giggled and called out the names of two of those behind him .

"We’re not here for you . "

"We’re here for… the legendary transfer student; the destroyer of clubs who single-handedly trashed the entire tennis and basketball clubs, Seigo Harano . "

They synchronized their words perfectly once more as they spoke in an amused tone .

Seiji frowned slightly .

Their voices were quite pleasing to the ears, but for some reason that he couldn’t quite discern, he felt a sense of enmity towards these twins!

It definitely wasn’t because the content of their words sounded so immature .

It was something about their essence… There was something dark hiding within these twin sisters—that was the source which invoked his hostility .

"You’re here to find me? Even though I don’t know why, could you please not refer to me using such a stupid method?"

He stepped out in front of Hoshi .

"I’ve heard Amami telling me about you two before… His beautiful sisters that have mental issues . What business do you two witches have with me?"
