In a row in front of our enemy we stand.
Soon, we ought to reach for each others hand,
but only at the thought of it, I need to gag,
Quick someone, get me a bag!
----------------------------------------
WHAT?! DID YOU REALLY START OFF THIS CHAPTER WITH A BAD POEM?!
----------------------------------------
'Excuse me, but I needed a whole fucking week for this. I ask for a bit more appreciation.'
As I just explained, Hajime stands right in front of me right now, with our allies rowed up besides us. The dirt beneath our feet feels like mud because of the falling rain and my underwear once again doesn't sit right.
"I hope for a good match, Yu." (Hajime)
He reaches out his open palm in an attempt for a handshake.
"*Spit* Die in hell for all the sexually frustrated girls you left behind." (Me)
"Haha! Don't be like that, buddy! It's not like they were interested in me anyways." (Hajime)
"Don't call me buddy. And I hope that you're aware of the fact that the big tittied lady besides you-" (Me)
"Hi~" (Big tittied lady beside him who we already saw at his introduction)
"-literally invited you to her bedroom the first time we met." (Me)
"She just likes to tease me a bit." (Hajime)
I breath in and calmly breath out to calm my nerves.
"I will end you." (Me)
"Let's see who wins this match, pal!" (Hajime)
"Don't you dare calling me that another time." (Me)
We turn our backs to each other and go opposing ways.
"So? Who will fight this time?" (Lydia)
"Me." (Me)
"And?" (Lydia)
"Me." (Me)
"And?" (Lydia)
"I will fight him alone you dumb nut." (Me)
"WHAT?! I DON'T GET TO FIGHT AGAIN?!" (Aline)
"Why do you want to fight him alone?!" (Lydia)
"Because I want to. You really need to stop overthinking my reasons, you won't get a lot out of it." (Me)
----------------------------------------
And why do you really want that?
----------------------------------------
'It just happens that I hate people who go naive through their life without anything bad happening to them. And this time, I will be the first bad thing that happens to him.'
I step away from my group and face the enemy team again.
"Yu... don't tell me you're going to plan on fighting us alone?!" (Hajime)
"I will be more than enough for you, you dense twat." (Me)
The usual monotone voice rings out from the booth at the top of the colosseum.
"Euh... yeah... so this time... euh... two teams from the human academies are fighting each other... yeah..." (Commentator)
"We can see that you stupid cunt." (Me)
"Yeah... I'm just gonna say start... start." (Commentator)
As soon as the commentator said it, Hajime and his group form a formation with him at the front and most of the girls at the back.
"Sorry pal, but we won't go easy on you, even if you're alone and we're friends." (Hajime)
"Hajime... I told you to never call me pal again." (Me)
Hajime readies his broadsword and holds it in a kendo like fashion.
"BODY ENHANCEMENT!" (Hajime)
"Wow, you're even calling out your attacks. There's a limit to how cliché you can get." (Me)
"LET'S GO GUYS! HE'S ALONE, WE CAN GET HIM!" (Hajime)
Hajime rushes to me, with his sword over his head, which indicates that he strikes from above. Meanwhile, the girls who stood behind him just now, are already finishing their spells.
"No, you can't." (Me)
Suddenly, Hajimes sword freezes in mid air.
"What-" (Hajime)
What caused that, is one of my new spells, "Space prison". It can stop everything from moving and, as long as I supply it with mana, it's very hard to destroy since it consists of fucking space. Take it or leave it.
"Now, Hajime. Let's see if you can still call me buddy after this." (Me)
I use the same spell on every girl on his harem and soon all 6 of them float in midair, about 30 meters above the ground with their arms bound to their body and legs unmovable.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
"LET US GO!" (Energetic girl from his harem)
"Oh, you want me to let you guys go? Alright then, nothing I can do about it. Wait a sec, let me undo this really quick." (Me)
"Really?" (Energetic girl from his harem)
"I think you convinced him Ira!" (Hajime)
"NO, SHE FUCKING DIDN'T! ARE YOU GUYS RETARDED?!" (Me)
I position all of them in the air at about the same distance with 3 meters in between them.
"WH- WHAT DO YOU PLAN ON DOING WITH US?!" (Energetic girl from his harem)
"I'm going to teach your beloved one a lesson concerning love." (Me)
I turn to the audience.
"Sorry, dear watchers, but the following content might not be good for my reputation, so you're all gonna turn blind for a bit." (Me)
The audience falls into turmoil, but as if someone answered that, they all immediately disappeared.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO THEM?!" (Hajime)
"I only made them invisible so they can't see what I'm going to do to you and your group of friends." (Me)
(Authors note: No, that's not a mistake. Don't forget that if he turns anyone invisible, then, because light can't hit their eye since he redirected it, they turn blind for a bit. Author out.)
"Now, since we're alone here... LET'S GET THIS GAME STARTED!" (Me)
Out of my inventory I pull out a yellow suit with red question marks all over it and put it on swiftly.
"G- Game?" (Hajime)
"That's right! A game! It's a really simple game and could even make you win, if you just give it your best!" (Me)
His group looks at me, as if I'm insane.
"What? Don't you like some additional excitement?" (Me)
"The... the rules?" (Quiet girl from his harem)
"Ah yes, we have a smart one here! The rules are very simple: I will ask you guys questions, and you have to answer them truthfully. If you don't, then you'll be punished. That's it! If you answer all my questons, then I will give up and you win!" (Me)
"This... why?" (Quiet girl from his harem)
"You're asking why?" (Me)
Unknown to me, my smile contorts into a grim expression.
"Because I want that fucker over there to taste a bit of despair." (Me)
Hajime's face starts to show a bit of fear.
"ALRIIIIGHT! FIRST QUESTION FOOOOR: THE DENSE SON OF A BITCH!" (Me)
"M- Me?" (Hajime)
"Of course it's you, dummy! My first question is very simple: What do you think does the big tittied big sister over there-" (Me)
"Hi~" (Big tittied lady beside him who we already saw at his introduction)
"-feel for you?" (Me)
Hajime hesitates before giving his first answer.
"She thinks of me as a good companion and friend!" (Hajime)
"WRONG!" (Me)
I form my hand like a pistol and take aim at the big titti lady.
"Bang!" (Me)
A lightning bolt shoots out of my finger and hits the lady right on.
Her body convulses before going limp. She doesn't even get to let out a scream.
"This is the punishment I talked about! FUCKING GLAD YOU PROVOKED IT, AREN'T YOU?!" (Me)
"STOP THAT! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!" (Hajime)
I teleport in front of Hajime and stand on top of a pure platform of mana.
I grab his hair and pull it in front of my face.
"Second question, you son of a bitch: Did, or did you not live with a happy family who was wealthy and had nothing to worry about?" (Me)
I point my finger at the energetic girl from his harem.
"I..." (Hajime)
He hesitates again.
"What? Don't want to answer? I guess this calls for punish-" (Me)
"WAIT!" (Hajime)
My face, which just now faced my target, turns over to Hajime again.
"I... I had some problems too. School stressed me all the time and my parents-" (Hajime)
"WRONG!" (Me)
Another lightning bolt shoots out of my finger and hits the energetic girl. She, just like the one before, convulses and goes limp without making a sound.
"WHAT WAS WRONG ABOUT THAT?!" (Hajime)
"What was wrong about that? YOU'RE ASKING WHAT WAS WRONG ABOUT THAT?! I'll tell you what problems are." (Me)
Hajime looks at me with clenched teeth.
"Problems are, when your own mother asks you, right in your face, to let her die already. Problems are, when your father died because of a heroin overdose. PROBLEMS ARE, WHEN YOU JUST CAN'T GET OUT OF A FUCKING HOLE WHICH YOU YOURSELF DIDN'T EVEN DIG!" (Me)
He tries to say something, but closes his mouth again.
"You disgust me with your problems. I, myself, don't consider what I went through as overly bad. There are people who went through shit far worse than me, but you didn't get any shit whatsoever. And you still don't call your life easy? *Spit* You're fucking weak... just like I am." (Me)
I feel a wave of anger, inside me, well up. It's a feeling I haven't experienced for a long time, at least not this serious.
Don't you want him to suffer?
I think about it for a split second.
'Nah, not yet. If I say yes right now, then you'll probably take over my body or something like that. Miss me with that shit.'
...
'What? You thought it's that easy to control me through my emotions? HA! I once lost a safe file of Sk*rim, because my brother overwrote it, in which had over 1200 hours invested in! That was anger.'
"Even though I just started this game, I'm already getting tired of it. Last question: What do YOU feel for the girls in your harem?" (Me)
Once again Hajime hesitates.
"Come on!" (Me)
Hajime stays silent.
"*Sigh* All you had to do, was following the damn train answering the damn questions, Hajime. And now the others have to suffer for your cowardness." (Me)
I point my finger towards another one of his harem.
"Don't." (Hajime)
"Bang!" (Me)
The next one goes limp.
I point my finger to the next one.
"Don't!" (Hajime)
"Bang!" (Me)
She goes limp as well.
I point my finger to the last one.
"This is your last chance! It's not that hard of a question, come on!" (Me)
Hajime hesitates, but after a few seconds he opens his mouth. Just before he says his first word:
"TIME'S UP!" (Me)
"I SAID DOOOOOOON'T!" (Hajime)
"BANG!" (Me)
The last lightning bolt for this game shoots towards the last harem member.
And.
She goes limp as well.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" (Hajime)
'Why is he even screaming so much? I didn't even kill them.'
After his scream of despair, his head hangs down and his eyes get covered by his bangs, making them unseeable due to a shadow.
'Oh no.'
----------------------------------------
What?
----------------------------------------
'It's never a good sign if the nice protagonist's eyes are covered by a shadow.'
"You hurt my friends." (Hajime)
"The Bitch said what?" (Me)
----------------------------------------
What?
----------------------------------------
"HA!" (Me)
"Their lifeless bodies are hanging there." (Hajime)
"What are you talking about? I didn't kill them. I still want to win this tournament. I would be disqualified if I killed them." (Me)
"YOU HURT MY FRRIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEENDDDSSSS!" (Hajiem)
Suddenly, a blinding light beam through the dark clouds engulfs him. I actually have to close my eyes because of the sheer brightness.
When I open my eyes, I see Hajime standing there. His formerly blonde hair is now pure white and his blue eyes turned red. Behind him is a silhouette of an angel in armor.
"Now this is just overreacting. You're a damn drama queen, Hajime." (Me)
"I WILL AVENGE MY FRIENDS!" (Hajime)
"Sure thing, buddy. Come on, let's get this over with." (Me)
