Except for Airi, who was still sleeping,
After leaving his marks on his girlfriends, Ren had just taken Koharu out to sunbathe when he saw Rokusuke Koenji standing outside the iron gate.
Letting Rokusuke Koenji in, unexpectedly, Arisu Sakayanagi also walked out from the side.
"Excuse me, Katsuragi-kun."
Lifting the hem of her skirt in a curtsy, Arisu greeted Ren politely.
Seeing that Arisu didn't bring Masumi Kamuro or a chessboard today.
Stepping aside, Ren let Arisu in.
"Koenji, what are you here for?"
"Ren, have you eaten? If not..."
Blocked by Ren at the door, Rokusuke Koenji showed no displeasure, asking Ren if he had eaten like a friend.
Clenching his right hand into a fist, Rokusuke Koenji grinned and punched toward Ren's abdomen: "If not, eat my fist."
Thud.
A muffled sound in the air.
Ren took Rokusuke Koenji's sudden attack without changing expression, grabbed one of Rokusuke Koenji's arms, and pulled, throwing him onto the small grassy area.
"It seems you haven't eaten either, Koenji."
Assuming a stance, Ren decided to postpone breakfast.
Magnificent, truly magnificent.
Whether it was Ren catching his fist without defense and stepping back half a step to dissipate the force, or throwing him into the yard with soft power.
Ren did everything flawlessly.
Indeed,
Only Ren could be called magnificent like himself.
Rokusuke Koenji also assumed a fighting stance, his eyes burning with battle intent: "Ren, the one losing today will definitely be you!"
Pop... Bang... Boom...
The noise outside the house attracted the attention of the three girls inside.
"Koenji-kun came to find Ren-kun early in the morning just to fight?"
Watching the fierce fight outside, Ichinose asked in confusion.
Ichinose really couldn't understand.
Why were Ren and Rokusuke Koenji good buddies usually, but attacking each other's vital points mercilessly now?
A posture of either you die or I die.
"It's okay, it's okay, Honami. Boys are like that."
Hoshinomiya propped her head on one hand, watching the two fight with interest. This was the first time Hoshinomiya had seen the two fight.
Unexpectedly, Ren was not only good at that skill but also at this one.
Kikyo Kushida didn't speak, placing one hand on the glass window and staring blankly outside.
Is this the so-called price?
"Good day~"
Politely greeting Koharu, who was circling her and looking at her non-stop, Arisu showed no fear.
Looking at the big white tigress in front of her, Arisu had a strange feeling.
Like...
Mutual pity?
"Roar."
The very spiritual Koharu responded to Arisu and stopped circling her.
Arisu's feeling wasn't wrong.
Koharu saw that Arisu's skin was unnaturally pale, just like she was different from her own kind.
Arisu looked down at the stopped Koharu, courage emerging from nowhere: "Can I touch you?"
The pale blue tiger eyes revealed a very obvious look of surprise.
How is this two-legged beast pushing her luck?
Without responding to Arisu, Koharu picked up Mochi, who was still chasing butterflies in the small garden, and walked toward Ren.
Looking at her hand just about to reach out, Arisu was a little lost: "Rejected, huh."
"Well, it doesn't matter, there will always be opportunities in the future."
In just a moment, Arisu comforted herself and also turned her gaze to Ren and Rokusuke Koenji.
A battle between evenly matched top geniuses, such a scene was rare.
Because her body couldn't handle intense exercise, Arisu was full of envy for combat geniuses like Ren and Rokusuke Koenji.
She really wanted to see the view that all-around geniuses could see.
Regarding being a genius, Arisu held a fairly firm self-perception.
Until she met Ren.
Arisu discovered,
Perhaps those fake geniuses she thought she had buried were indeed geniuses.
It was just that her level of genius,
Was superior.
Just like,
Herself in the eyes of Ren and Rokusuke Koenji.
"Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, can you really compare to them?"
Her father's "vacation," Ren's "advice," and Rokusuke Koenji, who had been hiding deeply, now revealing his skills.
Made Arisu's filter on Kiyotaka Ayanokoji completely disappear.
The heir of a top conglomerate whose status alone could bring despair, cultivated through generations of accumulation.
How could the White Room compare?
On the other side,
Not wanting to waste time with Rokusuke Koenji, Ren took a deep breath, his hair standing on end.
"Stop! Ren, I'm not playing anymore."
Before Ren could throw a punch, Rokusuke Koenji called a stop to the match.
He came to mooch a meal, not to fight to the death with Ren. Why risk his life?
"So, you came to mooch a meal?"
His body stopped trembling, and Ren revealed the truth with one sentence.
"That's right. Didn't I ask if you had eaten as soon as I arrived?"
Ignoring the pain in his body, Rokusuke Koenji laughed and walked up to Ren, patting his shoulder.
He even walked straight into the unclosed villa.
Seeing Rokusuke Koenji stop fighting, Ren also lost interest.
"Sakayanagi-san, have you eaten?"
"Katsuragi-kun, not yet."
"Then let's eat together."
"Excuse me."
...
"No, is this right?"
Sitting in the dining room, Kikyo Kushida felt uncomfortable if she didn't say something.
Too strange.
"Get used to it; it's not the first time, though it is the first time for someone."
Carrying a plate, Ren, who had finished making breakfast, walked out of the kitchen and said flatly.
"Oh my, oh my, is Katsuragi-kun not welcoming me?"
Arisu, named by Ren, sat next to Ichinose, covering her mouth and chuckling.
Arisu didn't expect such a scene in Ren's home either.
Raising a new question, Arisu cleverly shifted attention to Hoshinomiya: "But... why is Hoshinomiya-sensei also here?"
"Chie is my girlfriend. Isn't it normal for her to be here?"
Handing the cooked noodles on the plate to each person, Ren answered Arisu's question first.
Lowering her head without speaking, Hoshinomiya poked her two fingers together under the table.
This was the first time Ren said she was his girlfriend in front of outsiders.
Happy!
Before Ren could hand the noodles over, Rokusuke Koenji stood up and actively took them from the plate, not forgetting to tease: "Ren, you're feeding me this?"
Rokusuke Koenji, freshly showered, wore a white traditional robe, embroidered with a carp leaping out of the water in gold thread at the waist.
The current Rokusuke Koenji lacked his usual narcissistic air and looked much more reserved.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he ruined his current image.
"Ren, the clothes from Kyoto look good, but they are really troublesome to wear."
Ren scolded grumpily: "Then why wear them? Get lost."
Sometimes Ren really wanted to pry open Rokusuke Koenji's skull to see what was inside.
Just because the clothes Ren changed into just now were a black Kyoto-style robe with bird patterns, this guy insisted on getting a white set.
Saying something about feeling it.
Feeling what, exactly?
"By the way, where is Sakura-san?"
Not seeing Airi in the house, Arisu was a little confused.
Honami Ichinose, Kikyo Kushida, and even Hoshinomiya the teacher lived in Ren's villa.
It made no sense for Airi, who stuck to Ren every day, not to be here.
