"Wait a moment!"
The drama director jumped up when she sensed Seiji's murderous intent.
"I'm requesting for a reprieve! Shiina, there's a reason why I'm so late. Look, this is the reward from my 'hunt!' "
She pulled in a petite figure standing outside the door and pushed her in front of Seiji.
"Look!"
Everyone instantly fell silent.
Then, "Wow!" They exclaimed again when they saw Seiji, but this time they were full of praise.
Even Seiji was stunned by her beauty.
She had a petite but voluptuous figure, an exquisite and flawless face, snow-white skin, silky black hair, neat bangs, thin eyebrows, a jade-like nose, big clear eyes, and cherry cherry colored lips … This girl was wearing a middle school uniform, and she was holding a poetry book in her hands. Just by standing there, she exuded a breathtaking beauty!
A super beautiful girl.
This was Seiji's second time seeing such a beauty after the student council president, Wanhua Summer Night.
If Wanhua Summer Night's beauty was seductive and pure, then this girl's beauty was like the snowy plains of the North — cold, pure, and otherworldly.
This was probably the definition of a beauty that could cause the downfall of cities and countries.
"She's so beautiful — a middle school student? Where did the director find her? "
"She's like a porcelain doll, so beautiful! Who is she? "
The sounds of chattering could be heard.
"Hehe, I'm amazing, right?" The drama director smiled proudly. "Although I still couldn't find the legendary creature, I happened to find this one, so I captured her!"
Captured... a monster or a Pokemon? Seiji thought to himself.
The vice director, Shiina Shiho, looked at the expressionless beautiful girl for a long time before looking away and sighing.
"Director..."
"Praise me, vice director. This way, our club will be even more..."
"How many times do I have to tell you not to kidnap juniors!"
The incomparably incisive book combo left a dazzling trail in the air that looked like the light of a knife!
The drama director, Anya Saionji, was punished by the vice director for kidnapping a middle school girl. She died at the age of...
What a joke.
Generally speaking, the director was an outstanding director. When she took over the drama club in her first year, the club was already on the verge of being abolished. However, she had only used a year to revitalize the entire club! Another year had passed, and it was now her third year. The drama club was ranked among the top ten in Yuen Hwa Secondary.
The story that happened could totally be made into a half-year anime or TV series with her as the center. The content was compact and the plot was exciting. For ordinary middle school students, her experience was legendary.
However, this legendary club president had a vile habit that no one knew about, and that was kidnapping … whoops, discovering students that she thought had potential and forcefully bringing them to the drama club!
"About one-third of the members in the department were brought back this way by her, including me," Wakaba Chiaki explained the situation to Seiji with a smile.
"At that time, I wanted to casually look around the various societies before making a decision, but halfway through, I met the minister, and she dragged me here. Coincidentally, I'm also a little interested in acting, and I thought it was quite interesting here, so I joined. "
So this was what "hunting" and "capturing" meant. Did she really treat recruiting members like a real-life version of Pokemon?!
Seiji stared at the corner across from him, where the drama director, Anya, was forced to sit and receive a storm of lectures from the vice director, Shiina.
"When I heard Chiaki mention it before, I thought it was a joke …" Mika Uehara was still dumbfounded. "Doing something like this … isn't she punished?"
"The director had a duel with the Morals and Discipline Committee in her first year, and she won. Since then, as long as no one files a complaint, the Morals and Discipline Committee can't interfere with her actions."
'Hey, that's a lot of information!'
Seiji and Mika exchanged glances, then glanced at the smiling Wakaba and Chiaki, as well as the other members who didn't seem to care about the situation. They could only … smile, right?
Smile my ass!!!
This was almost a crime, okay!? She even had a freaking duel with the Morals and Discipline Committee, and won!?
What was wrong with the school's Morals and Discipline Committee!? She actually had a duel with a first-year student, and lost!? What the hell!!
Seiji's inner criticism was like a torrential downpour.
"Chiaki, in the past, I always thought that you were a little too independent, but now … I've realized that I was wrong. I'm sorry." Mika's worldview was impacted.
'Don't give up on common sense so easily, Uehara-san!'
Seiji rubbed the corner of his mouth that was twitching slightly as he turned to look in the other direction.
The middle school girl who had been brought here by the director was quietly sitting on a chair by the window, reading the poetry collection she had brought with her.
A light breeze blew over, lifting up some of her hair.
Just this scene alone was enough to take a beautiful picture that could be taken in a photography contest.
The person who had brought her here was currently being baptized, and the other club members seemed to be intimidated by her cold aura, as none of them went over to talk to her.
Seiji thought about it for a moment before walking over.
"Hello."
The girl didn't respond.
Seiji scratched his face, crouched down in front of the girl, and looked at her face.
"I'm Harano Seigo, a first-year high school student. I just transferred here today, and I'm currently visiting this club."
"Which grade are you in in middle school? If it's possible, could you tell me your name? "
A few seconds later.
"The reason why a fool is a fool isn't because he's ignorant, but because he doesn't know himself." The gentle voice spoke slowly and clearly.
'What?' Seiji blinked in surprise.
A conversation option popped up.
[A: What are you talking about? Are you insulting me?]
[B: Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.]
[C: The reason why a wise person is wise isn't because he's omniscient, but because he seeks knowledge.]
[C: The reason why a wise person is wise isn't because he's omniscient, but because he seeks knowledge.]
[C: The reason why a wise person is wise isn't because he's omniscient, but because he seeks knowledge.] Seiji spoke softly.
[Ding!] [Favorability rating increased!]
The girl's eyebrows twitched, and then she finally shifted her gaze to look at Seiji Mukai's face.
"You've read Taylor's poems?"
"Uh … I've read … a little." Seiji thought to himself, 'I know Tagore, but who the hell is Taylor?'
But he just acted cool, so he couldn't just say that he didn't understand.
"'How far apart am I from you? Then you must first ask yourself, how far is your heart from mine. '"
Again!?
This time, the conversation option didn't pop up. 'Don't be so useless, System!'
Seiji broke out in a cold sweat, but he suddenly had an idea.
"'The furthest distance between you and me is when I'm right in front of you, but you don't know … I love you.'"
'Damn, it's so embarrassing to say this!'
Seiji mocked himself in his heart. In his previous world, anyone who went online would know this poem, but he didn't know if it existed in this world.
Hearing this, the girl's watery eyes widened a little.
"This isn't Taylor's poem …"
"But …"
"It feels … pretty good."
She closed the poetry book.
"Kagura …"
"Hmm?"
"My name is … Shika Kagura."
The girl's voice was very soft and contained a trace of indescribable coldness. However, it did not make people feel unhappy. It was like white snow under the sun.
"Shika Kagura … is it?" Seiji scratched his face awkwardly. "It's a beautiful name."
The girl looked directly at his face.
"Harano Seigo … what do you want me to do?"
"Eh?" Seiji blinked. "No … I don't want you to do anything, I just heard that you were forcefully brought here, so I thought you might be a little uneasy or something."
Shika Kagura tilted his head slightly.
"You thought I would be uneasy, so you asked for my name?"
"Yeah …"
"Strange person."
'Is this behavior strange!?'
Seiji felt rather exhausted. He felt like this girl was using a lot of energy to talk to him, and his brain waves didn't match!
"I thought that someone talking to you would help you calm down … but now it seems that I was being a busybody; you've always been calm."
He wasn't good at talking to this type of literary girl. After confirming that she wasn't actually uneasy or nervous, he decided to retreat.
Perhaps some people would think that this type of cold and aloof personality combined with top-notch appearance was a so-called goddess, but Seiji wasn't interested in this type of girl. Even talking to her required so much effort, so he decided to forget about it.
Shika Kagura remained silent.
"You're actually … trying to comfort me?"
"I guess so."
"I see …"
Shika Kagura nodded.
"Harano Seigo is a good person."
Did he suddenly receive a good person card?
Seiji didn't know how to respond to this. Just as he was in a dilemma, he heard footsteps approaching.
He turned around to see that it was Shiina Shiho, as well as Anya Saionji, who seemed rather dizzy.
Seiji inwardly heaved a sigh of relief as someone finally took over.
"They're the president and vice president of this club. If you're interested in this place, go ahead and chat with them."
After saying that, he waved his hand and walked away.
Shika Kagura watched Seiji's back as he left.
"There's something … special about it …"
Her soft words vanished like bubbles in the wind.
