"Haaah—! Last night was great for the whole night again..."
"Exactly, hurry up and wash up. For breakfast, let's just grab something from the 24-hour convenience store next door."
The morning sun penetrated the window, shining on the naked men with faces full of enjoyment, mixing with the divine light, achieving a 1+1 greater than 2 effect, comparable to a flashbang.
Following Ryujiro Kotobuki and Shinji Tokita, the hungover Pab Club muscular men woke up one after another and began searching for their panties among the crowd.
"Haaah~ Yuu said he wanted to play the second half last night, but we didn't see him at all."
"He probably had so much fun outside that he just checked into a room, right? Looks like we have to get breakfast ourselves..."
The door opened, and a rush of hot air instantly surged into the room.
Although Iori's bedroom and club room were a bit dilapidated, they at least had a working air conditioner, while the GrandBlue hall was a veritable hell unsuitable for human habitation!
But even so, there was still a "Snail Girl" existing in this hell!
"Did you senpais finally wake up? Breakfast is ready, but since there are too many people today, we can only have egg fried rice!"
"Snail... Snail Girl!"
"In my life, someone other than my mom is calling me for a meal when I wake up. I'm so touched!!!"
"Yuu! Let's get married directly!"
Tears of emotion flowed uncontrollably. Although it was just egg fried rice, the sentiment within was so strong that even magma couldn't dissolve it!
If possible, how could such a great helper around the house only be kept at home by Nanaka!
We should buy a dozen in bulk, we want to keep one at our own homes too!
"...Senpai, I'm going to report sexual harassment now!"
Although he didn't know what kind of illness the senpais had contracted this time, Miyazawa Yuu speechlessly took out his phone, ready to call the police and have all the senpais arrested first.
Both his body and his heart belong to Nanaka-san and Azusa-senpai. These big, burly guys shouldn't even think about touching him!
"Well, sorry about that. When did Yuu get back? Where are Iori and Kohei?"
"This morning... past three? Those two are sleeping in the room originally assigned to Iori. I estimate they won't wake up until the afternoon."
Pulling out plastic wrap and wrapping it twice around two servings of egg fried rice, Miyazawa Yuu warned vigilantly: "These two portions are for Azusa-senpai and Nanaka-san. Don't secretly eat them!"
"Got it. Are you going out so early, Yuu?"
"Yeah, SILVERMAN GYM has an event, and there's a big item I want to buy..."
Taking off his apron and preparing to catch the first bus, he yawned and turned to say goodbye without much energy: "I'm leaving~"
"Be careful..."
The click of the door closing sounded. Shinji Tokita immediately burst into tears uncontrollably, as excited as if he were seeing his child get married.
Buying big items—this is something people don't always do even when renting or sometimes buying a house. Doing it means he's prepared to live here for at least over ten years.
This guy Yuu is actually starting to buy big items at GrandBlue. This is absolutely the rhythm of heading straight for marriage!
"Shou, it looks like we need to prepare our wedding envelopes. We absolutely cannot let this guy Yuu look down on us!"
"Understood! Nanaka's red bean rice also needs to be put on the agenda! Ganbatte everyone!"
"Oh!!!"
...
On the other side, completely unaware that his simple statement had made the senpais passionate, who, after eating, rushed off to work to earn 'wedding money' without even starting to drink.
Miyazawa Yuu took the bus directly to the city center, then transferred to the light rail, finally making it to SILVERMAN GYM before eight o'clock.
At this time, the sign-up for Armwrestling hadn't started yet, and the front desk was still empty. He said hello and went directly through the staff passage to the competition venue.
"Good morning, Naruzo. Uwah~ hasn't the competition venue been set up yet? The boss is really something, he should at least pay attention to an event like this."
Because it was a national competition, Miyazawa Yuu originally thought the venue should be built in a dark, sunless basement, like an underground boxing gym or an unregulated arena.
To prevent contestants from injuring people, the area would be surrounded by a gloomy, terrifying steel cage with inward-extending spikes and high-voltage electricity, like an Octagon.
But in fact, none of the above existed. SILVERMAN GYM had simply moved all the equipment out of the fitness area and built a platform with steel bars.
Not only that, the owner of SILVERMAN GYM seems particularly inhumane. Not only was the venue not completed just a few hours before the competition, but he was also exploiting his employees for hard labor!
"Ah~ Yuu, you came so early, you look very energetic!"
Carrying two large I-beams on his shoulders, Naruzo Machio turned his head to look at Yuu, the corners of his mouth curving into a healthy arc: "This is not exploiting employees, but necessary safety measures!"
"Eh? It's just an armwrestling competition, right? Do you need something like this?"
Poking her head out from behind Yuu, Hibiki Sakura, with her speechless half-moon eyes, followed the undulations of Naruzo's bodybuilding movements, her gaze fixed on the I-beams that were over three meters long.
Building materials of this strength, let alone stepping on them for armwrestling, probably no one could even dent them by directly using 'Ora Ora' on them. Their appearance here is a case of overkill.
"Hibiki came early too, very energetic! Very energetic!"
"I said..."
Pointing to his own dark circles, Miyazawa Yuu yawned and complained with a face full of unspoken emotion: "What exactly is your standard for judging if someone is energetic, Naruzo? Didn't you see these huge dark circles?"
"Exactly! I was so excited for the prize money that I couldn't sleep all night either!"
Waving her hands in protest with dissatisfaction, Hibiki Sakura's proud expression made it seem like being tormented by greed and staying up all night was an extremely glorious thing.
But to Miyazawa Yuu...
"Hiss..."
"Eek, Yuu-nii-san, don't lean in so suddenly!"
Leaning close to Hibiki Sakura's small face, which instantly turned crimson with fright, Miyazawa Yuu hesitated for a long time, and finally bowed deeply and sincerely to Naruzo in apology.
"I apologize for misunderstanding you. It turns out that dark circles are sometimes really invisible!"
"Hey! What do you mean, Yuu!"
"Well, after all, it's the 'dark skin gal' setting, so it can't be helped..."
It was truly difficult to spot dark circles on Hibiki's dark skin, so Miyazawa Yuu scratched the back of his head and forcefully changed the topic: "So, do you still need help with the venue? I don't mind warming up."
"No need, with these two added, it should be fine..."
Lifting the curtain under the stage, Naruzo Machio inserted the last two I-beams into the remaining slots and secured them. Only then did he feel relieved and patted the competition area twice.
"In terms of strength, even if we led an African elephant onto it to tap dance, it would be completely daijōbu (fine)!"
"African elephant?! What exactly are you treating this armwrestling competition as!"
Frightened by the outrageous statement, Hibiki Sakura turned around vigilantly. She suspected that the men's final might be an Octagon fight against an African elephant, and the animal rights organization would be coming for them!
"Emmm... looking at Naruzo's physical fitness, is an African elephant really an opponent?"
"Don't joke around, how can humans win against the power of nature!"
"Exactly! Hahahahaha!"
Linking arms and laughing up at the sky at the same time, even though both Yuu and Naruzo were refreshingly handsome guys, Hibiki Sakura, who knew this was a trap, couldn't bring herself to be interested!
"Speaking of which, as a famous gym, SILVERMAN GYM must have a lot of participants for the armwrestling competition, right?"
Having advocated for nature, as if doing so could completely wash away his inhuman abilities, Miyazawa Yuu turned his head and pressed down on Naruzo's shoulder, sinisterly discussing: "Now, quickly take out the schedule, knowing the enemy and yourself means you won't be defeated."
"I know, I was planning to post it anyway, but since some people might not show up temporarily, I printed a new version."
Taking the two people who arrived extra early due to greed, Naruzo Machio confirmed with the event preparation department and finally brought the latest competition schedule and posted it in the SILVERMAN GYM lobby.
Miyazawa Yuu frowned and scanned it from top to bottom, finally summarizing it in two words—Star-studded!
However, judging from the nationalities of the participants, Russia, as a strong armwrestling country, clearly had significantly more athletes participating than other regions.
"It seems like it will be a tough battle..."
"Indeed... not at all! Why are there only two people in the women's group! Did you really advertise properly?"
Looking at the single-digit number of participants, Hibiki Sakura's eyebrows rose wildly in anger.
If Yuu's side was a "tough battle," her side was indeed a "hungry station." After all, eating is forbidden in the venue, and just standing there watching the men's competition would make her hungry!
Where are Tachibana-sensei and Sōryūin?! Didn't we agree to participate in the competition together!
