This guy...
It was this guy who deceived her with fake information!
As the saying goes, when enemies et, their eyes turn red with fury. Of course, Horikita Suzune's eyes were already wine-red, but now the anger within those wine-red pupils was even more apparent.
"So, you are this guy's maid."
Horikita Suzune opened with mockery, her tone filled with intense heat. How could one's mood be good after being set up?
"Indeed. However, it is only for this month. Next month, it will be you~"
Sakayanagi Arisu didn't mind the sarcasm in Horikita Suzune's tone at all. On the contrary, seeing Horikita Suzune in this sowhat flustered and exasperated state made her quite happy.
Sure enough, hearing these words from Sakayanagi Arisu, Horikita Suzune's entire complexion beca even worse.
"Did he give you the order?"
Horikita Suzune looked at Shiki Natsu with a gaze reserved for scum. To actually arrange for his own people to set a trap for her—it was truly terrible.
"Hey, hey, hey, Horikita, that's a bit of slander. I never told Sakayanagi to do such a thing."
Shiki Natsu spread his hands and smiled. He hadn't made any moves from start to finish. Anyway, he was not willing to take the bla for this.
"Then what is the significance of her doing such a thing?"
The confusion in Horikita Suzune's eyes deepened. The interaction between the two could be said to be minimal; at most, they had eaten a al here together last night, and then the other party had sought her out in Class A to set up this layout.
She had said that the best way to make Shiki Natsu submit was to make a bet: as long as she won, she could make Shiki Natsu agree to any of her requests. She also intentionally or unintentionally revealed that deciding the victor using next month's points was the best thod.
Because points are related to performance, and since Shiki Natsu's grades were relatively average—ranking only in the top twenty in Class A—and because he occasionally sought out Kamuro Masumi to chat during class, his points next month might not reach one hundred thousand. Plus, the school would be holding a quiz next week; if one achieved good results on the quiz, perhaps one could earn bonus points.
Horikita Suzune believed these words after hearing them because, in her heart, Shiki Natsu was just such an unreliable guy. If his grades were average, it wouldn't be strange for him to do things like not listening seriously in class.
In addition, Sakayanagi Arisu is a mber of Class A. No matter how you put it, the intelligence she knows is definitely greater than what Horikita knows. Moreover, there would be absolutely no benefit in deceiving her...
As a result... she directly dug a huge pit for her!
"Because it's very interesting~ Watching Horikita-san challenge Shiki-san with such overflowing confidence is quite amusing."
Sakayanagi Arisu revealed a rather malicious smile. If she couldn't beat Shiki Natsu, could she not calculate against Horikita Suzune?
Although her contact ti with Horikita Suzune wasn't very long, Sakayanagi Arisu roughly knew what kind of person Horikita Suzune was: quite straightforward, proud and aloof, and completely indifferent to things like friends. Even being forced by Shiki Natsu to make friends was done just like completing a task.
There was one more point: information asymtry. After a little bit of fishing for words, it was very simple to learn from Horikita Suzune's own mouth the information she understood. Next was the ti to utilize that information asymtry.
When she arrived at Shiki Natsu's room last night, Horikita Suzune happened to be there as well and saw her arrival. She could then pretend to be very familiar with Shiki Natsu and reveal so news to Horikita Suzune.
Then, Horikita Suzune very easily walked into her plan.
Interesting?
Horikita Suzune suddenly froze for a mont. What kind of answer was this? Just because it was interesting?
Just because it was interesting, she made her beco this hateful guy's maid for a month?
Horikita Suzune was quite angry. Sure enough, the people around this hateful guy were all not normal people.
A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. Horikita Suzune reminded herself that she absolutely could not commit the sa error again. At the very least, she couldn't readily trust the words of others. No matter how true they sounded, she should make a judgnt only after investigating.
This ti, she admitted defeat.
"Alright, Sakayanagi, change into your maid outfit."
Shiki Natsu looked at the smiling Sakayanagi Arisu aside. Although Sakayanagi Arisu had helped him obtain a new maid, but... that was to satisfy her own selfish desires. And a smug brat smiling so happily wouldn't do.
"Ara, Shiki-san, I helped you find a new maid. Can't you give a day off?"
Sakayanagi Arisu looked at Shiki Natsu with those purple eyes. She had already given Horikita Suzune to him; she didn't ask to shorten her ti as a maid, but at least she shouldn't have to play the role of a maid in front of Horikita Suzune, right?
In that case... the superiority originally in the young girl's heart would completely vanish. Those purple eyes landed on Shiki Natsu as if acting coquettishly, asking this heartless man not to make a heartless decision.
"No can do~ After all, I didn't ask you to do such a thing. Moreover... as a senior, naturally you have to guide your junior properly, don't you? Show your senior's charm."
Shiki Natsu wore a faint smile on his face. He couldn't let this smug brat get too carried away.
Senior's charm?
What senior's charm is there in being a maid?
Sakayanagi Arisu was quite unhappy, and her entire small face suddenly collapsed. Shiki Natsu, this guy, was simply too excessive.
Clearly, she had sent him a big gift, yet this guy still treated her like this. He simply wasn't human.
"By the way, Horikita, if you need points to purchase a maid outfit, I can lend so points to you~"
Shiki Natsu's gaze landed on Horikita Suzune at the side. He couldn't favor one over the other; this slightly arrogant beautiful girl should also be taught a harsh lesson.
Too reckless. Trusting others so lightly. Trusting anyone would have been better, but she just had to trust Sakayanagi Arisu. Wasn't this looking for suffering herself?
The person who should receive the trust of a crowd of beautiful girls should only be him. After all, he rarely lied to beautiful girls.
"No need!"
Mn, Shiki Natsu's good intentions were once again ruthlessly rejected by Horikita Suzune.
However, right now, Horikita Suzune's situation should be better than Sakayanagi Arisu's. After all, the points on Sakayanagi Arisu's person were completely lost. Even the personal points she won from the Chess Club were all lost to him.
The people in the Chess Club shouldn't be idiots who would endlessly send personal points to Sakayanagi Arisu.
Then... Sakayanagi Arisu should be relying on the mountain vegetable set al to get by, right?
Shiki Natsu thought of Sakayanagi Arisu's lonely and desolate back, eating the mountain vegetable set al alone in the cafeteria. Really pitiful... yeah right.
Looking at Sakayanagi Arisu's current performance, did she look like a pitiful person? Even if she ate the mountain vegetable set al, this guy should be quite excited when thinking about the plan she was about to realize, right?
Sakayanagi Arisu quickly finished changing into that maid outfit and then stood in front of Shiki Natsu once again.
Horikita Suzune sized up Sakayanagi Arisu in this maid outfit and couldn't help but breathe a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, Shiki Natsu, this guy, didn't request a change into a swimsuit maid outfit with a high degree of exposure.
If it were really like that, the young girl would rather die than submit!
Although it hadn't been put into action yet, the young girl had already calculated it in her heart countless tis.
Shiki Natsu sat on the chair, and Sakayanagi Arisu quite consciously walked behind Shiki Natsu to massage his shoulders.
Anyway, this appearance had already been seen by Kamuro Masumi. One more Horikita Suzune didn't matter. No, what he wanted to do was to make Horikita Suzune relax her vigilance. When the ti ca for Horikita Suzune to do this kind of thing, he would record this appearance again.
Sakayanagi Arisu actually didn't want to treat Horikita Suzune so excessively either. It was just... seeing a weak guy desperately challenging the strong, challenging Shiki Natsu whom even she couldn't take advantage of in the slightest... a trace of bad taste would always involuntarily surface in her heart.
"This is one of your main jobs later on. The rest include washing dishes, sweeping the floor, mopping the floor, and so other things a maid should do."
Shiki Natsu spoke slowly. Mn, there was also washing feet, only Shiki Natsu didn't say it. Of course, with Horikita Suzune's acceptance level, she absolutely couldn't accept it. However, as long as Horikita Suzune didn't make him unhappy, he wouldn't do such excessive things.
Making Sakayanagi Arisu wash his feet was only because Sakayanagi Arisu was simply too jumpy in front of him, giving one the feeling that if she wasn't taught a lesson, she would tear the roof off the house if not beaten for three days.
Hearing Shiki Natsu's words, Horikita Suzune unknowingly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were just so simple things.
"I understand. However, the premise of all this is established on the result of my loss!"
Horikita Suzune spoke up, taking out her phone to send a ssage in the class group, telling everyone not to do things unrelated to studying during class, otherwise it would affect next month's points.
It was currently only the second week of school. In fact, only two days had passed in the second week. Not even half a month had passed; there was still a chance!
Maybe she really could turn the tables. The key to her turnaround lay with that group of people in Class D.
Seeing Horikita Suzune's actions, Shiki Natsu also knew what she was doing.
"Ara, Master, do you not plan to go stop her? Maybe you really will lose~"
Sakayanagi Arisu spoke with a soft laugh. Horikita Suzune had already started to act; this was how it should be. If she didn't resist at all, this match wouldn't be interesting in the slightest.
She liked watching the weak struggle. Mn, and incidentally teasing Shiki Natsu a bit.
Actually, she also knew that teasing Shiki Natsu wouldn't elicit any particularly special reaction from this guy, but she just wanted to tease him like this.
"Little maid, it seems..."
She didn't see Shiki Natsu's expression, but hearing this form of address from Shiki Natsu, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't help but tremble physically and shut her mouth.
If he made her wash his feet at this ti, and moreover in front of Horikita Suzune whom she had deed a weakling, then Sakayanagi Arisu would truly have nowhere to hide her sha.
One had to know that this was completely different from massaging shoulders and the like. That was touching Shiki Natsu's feet. Even if there was no sll, the young girl's small heart would still be shattered.
"In your opinion, with Class D acting starting from now, how many points might be left next month?"
Horikita Suzune watched the commotion in the class group. She didn't explain too much, only telling them to comply. Then Hirata Yousuke and Kushida Kikyou began to analyze in the group, starting to answer questions for the crowd of Class D, and pointing out unreasonable places. The crowd suddenly realized the truth.
However... this was far from enough. Because she wasn't clear about the school's point deduction standards, and didn't want to purchase that standard from Shiki Natsu, she simply asked Shiki Natsu with a questioning attitude.
Her tone was just like, "You wouldn't be unable to answer even this kind of question, right?"
Mn... it made people feel quite uncomfortable listening to it, wanting to prove themselves.
"I don't know~ After all... this is your class, Horikita. No matter how you put it, you should estimate this kind of thing yourself."
Shiki Natsu chuckled lightly, not giving Horikita Suzune even a vague number.
The current him was the type who didn't fall for goading thods.
"However, I think you can wait until May 1st, Horikita. At that ti, you'll have the answer you want."
This statent was simply the sa as nonsense.
"Our wager is still fifty thousand points, right?"
"It is you obtaining fifty thousand from the points distributed by the school next month."
Shiki Natsu added a sentence. After all, he was one to play word gas, so naturally, he couldn't let Horikita Suzune find a loophole. What if she borrowed so points from others later, and then counted it as her winning?
Horikita Suzune at this mont had surprisingly beco a bit smart. Not bad, not bad.
"I know!"
Horikita Suzune spoke. Looking at the leisurely and carefree Shiki Natsu, the young girl's mood could be said to be very irritable.
She couldn't continue staying here any longer; the young girl wanted to take action.
"By the way, tomorrow's mission report must also be submitted."
Listening to the thumping sound of the young girl's footsteps, Shiki Natsu spoke up.
The only thing responding to Shiki Natsu was the sound of the door closing.
"Sakayanagi, your strength is still too small."
Shiki Natsu spoke up.
Good heavens, as soon as Horikita Suzune left, this fire imdiately spread to her, didn't it?
Her strength was small; wasn't this very normal?
Giving him a shoulder massage was already considered quite good of her.
And he still had so many demands!
The young girl was quite dissatisfied. Clearly, she had done a good deed, but... she didn't receive any reward. Shiki Natsu really was an excessive guy.
He wasn't good to his maid at all, and he liked to toy with his maid. He was truly full of bad taste.
Fortunately, in just over two more weeks, she could get rid of this identity. At that ti... she would challenge Shiki Natsu once again. Of course, at that ti, she would definitely make full preparations to avoid falling directly into the trap set by Shiki Natsu like Horikita Suzune.
Mn, that's right. Even if she lost to Shiki Natsu several tis, Sakayanagi Arisu had already placed herself in an equal position with Shiki Natsu. Although she suffered losses in their exchanges, but... she hadn't lost to the point of being unable to turn things around. Therefore, the two were still evenly matched!
The pitiful little maid had actually developed this kind of fantasy; it was truly worrying.
"That can't be helped. After all, I am a frail patient. Being able to do this is already not easy."
Sakayanagi Arisu spoke slowly. These words directly shifted the responsibility onto Shiki Natsu. Knowing his classmate's body was that weak yet still blaming her—it was simply too excessive.
"Forget it. By the way, Sakayanagi, I'll settle your reward for you."
Shiki Natsu stood up, looking at Sakayanagi Arisu with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
Being looked at like this, Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly felt flustered. What was going on? What idea was this guy entertaining again?
"You, lie down on the bed."
"Ara, is Shiki-san finally planning to make a move on his maid?"
Sakayanagi Arisu continued to speak with a smile, her tone still carrying considerable teasing.
"I won't make a move on soone who can't withstand a few impacts~"
"By the way, change into this."
Shiki Natsu took out a clean white blanket from the wardrobe. The blanket wasn't very big, but it was just enough to wrap around the young girl's upper body.
"Shiki-san... are you joking?"
Sakayanagi Arisu's purple eyes truly beca a bit uncomposed. Having gotten along for so long, was this guy finally going to unleash his beastly nature?
Even though Shiki Natsu had just said her body couldn't withstand a few impacts, but... directly making her change into such a blanket—no matter how she thought about it, sothing wasn't right.
"No, I am not. I have learned massage techniques. Who knows, maybe it will be of so use to your body."
Words were said like this, but... in reality, he was cheating. Such a small matter was naturally possible.
Hearing these words, Sakayanagi Arisu frowned again. Shiki Natsu's expression didn't seem like he was lying, but... this was simply too inconceivable.
"The opportunity is only this once. After all, you helped find a new maid. You can also choose to refuse."
Shiki Natsu looked at Sakayanagi Arisu with a calm face.
The young girl's heart was full of conflict. Shiki Natsu... was an unfathomable person. Did he really want to take advantage of her?
