Why did such a high-level question suddenly pop up!?
Seiji mentally retorted as he realized what he heard.
What was a "trap?" He could answer this question casually, but it would be easy for others to interpret it as "a pervert in women's clothing," and that was something Seiji would never allow.
It definitely wasn't because he had a junior who was such a person! It was because as an otaku, he didn't want others to misunderstand 2-D culture!
Then how should he explain it?
Before this …
"Shuho-san, why would you ask such a question? How did you learn about the term 'trap?' "
"I saw it on TV, so I paid attention to it."
Yep, now that he knew where it came from, it was most likely some variety show.
Seiji rubbed his chin in contemplation.
"A 'trap' is a boy who has a cute appearance, so cute that he's like a girl … that's the simplest way to understand it.
And in 2-D … light novels, manga, anime, and so on, this term has a deeper meaning.
I don't recommend you to understand it too deeply; it's fine as long as you know its basic meaning. "
That's right, that was it.
It was a clear and concise explanation while leaving room for discussion.
Hitaka blinked in surprise.
"A boy who's cute like a girl … then should I view him as a boy or a girl?"
Good question!
It was such a good question that he didn't know how to answer!
Seiji's face twitched slightly.
View him as a boy? That didn't seem right. View him as a girl? That didn't seem right either! View him as a transvestite? That was even more wrong!!
Transvestites and traps were two different things! They definitely couldn't be confused!!
How should he answer a female student who lacked knowledge about boys and girls when she asked about the existence of traps? Waiting online for an answer!!
He didn't expect to meet with such an unexpected question.
It was impossible for the current Hitaka Shuho to truly understand the allure of traps, so he could only answer with one of the three questions.
"You should view him as a boy!" Seiji's eyes flashed as he answered decisively.
That's right, a trap was ultimately a boy. Biologically speaking, it was a male who was incapable of giving birth to a child!
"Oh …" Hitaka nodded.
He seemed to understand.
The first question had been answered. That was wonderful.
Seiji could feel the emotions of a novice teacher.
The task of teaching him didn't seem to be as easy as he had thought.
"Shuho-san, if you don't have any other questions, I'll talk to you about what to wear first …"
The special lesson for the red-haired girl began.
…
Dinner time.
Seiji took his tray and went to look for Shika Kagura.
The latter was already waiting for him.
After placing the plates on the table, the two of them sat down naturally and began to eat.
"Little Shi, did you write anything today?" Seiji started the conversation.
Shika Kagura nodded and smiled.
"Let me take a look later … no, tell me now!" Something flashed in Seiji's eyes.
Shika Kagura blushed.
The literary girl wasn't good at expressing herself verbally.
"Just give me a general idea of what kind of plot you've come up with, character settings, and so on." Seiji hoped that she would speak first.
Shika Kagura blinked in surprise.
"What I'm thinking of is …" She slowly began to narrate her story.
Seiji listened as he ate. As he listened, he began to eat at a slower pace.
Shika Kagura adopted the direction that Seiji suggested, which was to use the adopted younger sister's point of view to tell the story of the adopted older brother.
Compared to his previous general idea, Shika Kagura made the main character much more detailed, including the specific physical appearance, personality, commonly used combat equipment, weapons, signature lines, and actions …
After listening to these settings, Seiji had a vivid image of the adopted older brother, and he had the urge to write it down.
The plot was also quite good.
The keyword was "Wish Candy."
The general idea was that a mysterious candy known as "Wish Candy" had appeared at the school where the adopted younger sister and brother were studying. As long as they made a wish while eating this candy, it was highly likely that the wish would come true.
Especially if the wish was about love, it was more likely to come true.
The adopted younger sister, as a girl, longed for this candy. However, the adopted older brother expressed his doubts, which caused the adopted younger sister to reject him.
In order to prove it to the adopted older brother, the adopted younger sister investigated on her own. She wanted to obtain such a candy, but she soon ran into a wall and was harassed by some hooligans. At this time, the adopted older brother appeared and defeated all the hooligans.
This was the first time the adopted older brother showed off his skills. From the adopted younger sister's point of view, the main character appeared to be incredibly powerful and handsome. His charm was on full display.
The two of them reconciled and continued investigating together. They felt that the "Wish Candy" was rather strange, even eerie.
During this period, their backgrounds, living conditions, and other details were gradually revealed. However, they still kept some things to themselves.
The "adopted older brother" and "adopted younger sister" were investigating the mysterious item, but they themselves were mysterious as well. Thus, the two mysteries created a unique and mystical atmosphere for the entire story.
The interesting interactions between the two of them, as well as the interactions between the adopted older brother and the other supporting female characters, gave off the flavor of a romantic comedy.
After that, the story reached its climax. The true identity of the "Wish Candy" was finally discovered by the two of them. At the same time, the two of them fell into a dangerous situation.
The main culprit was one of the supporting female characters that had appeared earlier.
The clues that she was the culprit were hidden in all sorts of small details. The adopted older brother revealed them one by one, finally revealing her identity.
The climax was when the "adopted older brother" confronted the culprit who revealed her true identity and fought!
My adopted sister watched the entire battle from the sidelines, acting as a camera … whoops, a narrator as she described this soul-stirring battle.
In the end, the "adopted older brother" defeated the demon, but he lost half of his body.
However, the "adopted younger sister" didn't hurry to save him. She simply waited in silence.
Moments later, the heavily injured "adopted brother" speedily regenerated under the moonlight. He finally stood up completely unscathed.
It turned out that the "adopted brother" was possessed by an incredibly powerful demon. It was impossible for him to die, and he couldn't even die if he wanted to.
On the way home, the "adopted sister" teased the "adopted brother" about his immortal body, and the "adopted brother" said that it was all thanks to her — the terrifying demon that possessed his body was actually suppressed by the "adopted sister".
The story ended here.
* Clap clap! *
Seiji started clapping.
Shika Kagura's story was wonderful and interesting. He even left a huge cliffhanger at the end.
It was completely in line with the direction that he had previously suggested!
This was exactly what he had imagined his story to be like. And Shika Kagura really managed to create it.
The story wasn't all that complicated. It was easy to understand, but it had a certain connotation. Most importantly, it was filled with mystery from beginning to end.
Not only was the plot and the main characters' identities mysterious, even the seemingly simple romantic comedic interactions had a mystical feeling to it. It was as if every character was hiding a dark secret.
The atmosphere of mystery was created quite well.
Seiji even felt like he was watching a "Monogatari" series from his previous world. However, he preferred Shika Kagura's story idea. That was because he felt that the main character, his adopted brother, was much better than Ara Trash … whoops, Ara Kagura!
"Little Shi, I think that your idea is excellent. I really want to write out this entire story right now!"
Seiji smiled at Shika Kagura.
"It's decided then. This story, this story … this will be our first collaboration story!"
"Yeah …"
Shika Kagura was smiling happily as well.
Her face was flushed red, and her eyes were sparkling. Her entire smiling face seemed to be filled with happiness.
"As for the name, are you sure it's going to be 'I'm the Younger Sister'?" Seiji inquired about the name of the story.
Shika Kagura shook her head slightly.
"I don't want this one, I want another one …"
She slowly said the name …
