ResetI've posted multiple updates today.
Here is Chapter 1.
While riding Fenrir and searching for a boar, we also stumbled upon a beautiful girl.
And she was in the middle of being attacked by the boar.
We didn't hesitate, barreling forward to save the girl.
Technically, it was Fenrir's Mashiro who did the charging. "Take 'em down—! MASHIRO!"
Answering his master, Ginblonde Gal Teimer Shiko's command with a mighty roar, Mashiro charged at the boar from the side.
Have you ever seen that scene in movies where an escaping suspect gets hit by a truck and sent flying?
It was exactly like that.
A thudding sound, followed by a jolt as if a car had skidded to a sudden stop.
Then, before our eyes, the boar was launched into the air, only to crash violently into a tree.
It fell straight down and went limp.
"D-did he... take it down in one shot..."
When you've got a Fenrir, you can actually run over a boar and kill it...
"W-what...!? A wolf monster...!?"
The girl didn't seem to see us; still in a state of panic, she pointed her branch at Mashiro.
No, if she was a witch, I should call it a wand.
"Hold it, Class President! It's me! Kuno!"
I shouted over Mashiro's shoulder, and the girl—Yotsubo Fuhou—froze in place.
After a few seconds, her gaze rose and locked onto us.
"...K-Kuno-kun?"
Fuhou was the class representative of second-year Class A and sat to my immediate right.
Because of that, she had likely heard most of our conversation with Chiyu and Moko.
Upon hearing about ability-related topics, Fuhou had probably spent some time alone wondering what kind of ability she would have ended up with.
"I'm here too, Minoryn." "I guess it's surprising. I get it, Fuhou-san." "The ride is fantastic."
Moko, Shion, and Chiyu also called out to Fuhou.
Well, Chiyu's comment was just a stray remark.
Mashiro lowered us down, and we stepped onto the ground.
"It's all good now, President. This little guy took down that wild boar."
"My name is Mashiro! Try to remember it, Miron-chan."
Mikako petted and praised Mashiro as she added the explanation.
"...C-could it be that this was due to the summoning ability Kanda-san mentioned?"
Apparently, Yotae had indeed overheard our conversation in that dream of hers.
"Yeah, that's right."
"W-was I... saved?"
"Yes, you don't have to run anymore."
"Hmph..."
Yotae, who was earnest and dignified, never showing a single crack in her composure.
Presumably relieved of the tension, she scrunched up her face and began to cry.
I pulled out the handkerchief Mikako had returned to me yesterday and hastily handed it to Yotae.
Of course, I took it from my [Inventory], so it was spotless.
Yotae accepted it with a "thank you," but without wiping her eyes, she moved closer to me.
And then, she rested her head on my shoulder.
"Y-Yotae-san."
"I'm sorry, just for a moment."
"A-Ah, yeah."
I was able to transfer to this world with Chiyu from the very beginning, and Shouko and Shiho came to join us as a pair.
But what if I had been completely alone, having to survive through the night on an desert island?
The relief of finally reuniting with my classmates would be immense.
After hovering in uncertainty for a moment, I gently placed my hand on Shitsue's back.
It went smoothly enough since I could call Shouko a friend, but Shitsue was someone I’d only had a few words with and hadn’t even exchanged contact info with, so gauging the distance between us was tricky.
"Mm-hmm, I get it, Mino-chan.
Being alone in the forest must be seriously lonely and tough," Shouko said, expressing deep empathy.
"Because Soosuke, Shouko, and Chiyu are all so kind and reliable, it's okay now, Shitsue-san."
Shiho spoke in a reassuring tone.
"Black hair, ponytail, super serious, huge tits, class rep... Another harem member has been added to the list."
Chiyu, you're seriously operating on autopilot.
Though it is reassuring given the circumstances.
Eventually, Shitsue pulled away from me, perhaps having calmed down.
After wiping her eyes with a handkerchief, she bowed her head to me.
"I'm sorry, I hope you didn't see anything indecent."
"N-no need to worry about it."
"That's not the point. Just because I was relieved to finally meet you, Tamura-kun... I ended up acting so shameless... Did that make you uncomfortable?"
"No, not at all. If anything, it made my heart skip a beat."
Seeing her look apologetic, he tried to reassure her that it wasn't a big deal by making a joke of it.
She turned beet red and trembled violently as she shrieked.
"M-my heart... skipping?
I mean, even if it's my fault for bringing it on myself, thinking about something so lewd is just wrong, you know...!" Lewd.
Did she realize that in trying so hard to avoid using vulgar words, she had actually made the sentence sound even more erotic?
Well, maybe the problem was with the guy who kept hearing it as perverted.
If the Class President said it, guys would probably get hard whether he called the thing a male organ or a penis.
The tragic nature of men...
Shibata seemed to snap out of it, lowering her voice. She took a deep breath and cleared her throat.
"Cough. I'm sorry, I lost my composure. Let me properly say this again. Tamura-kun, Ishi-yama-san, Wangan-san, Dokkai-san, and Mashiro-san... thank you so much for helping us out."
Shibata bowed politely.
"You're welcome! We look out for each other in times like these!"
「Heh. I didn't do anything. By the way, are you alone, Yotetsu-san?»
Shouko replied with a smile, while Shiun casually probed for information.
「Yeah, just me.
That said, we aren't the first classmates she's encountered, though.» 「Oh really?」
“I won’t mention their names, but yesterday I ran into two boys in the forest. They suggested we hang out together... but their gaze was somehow terrifying.”
She had tried to leave, but they followed her around for a while.
Eventually, when they started reaching out to touch her, Yotetsu fired a warning shot with magic.
They didn't seem to have any effective countermeasures, so they fled together in a panic.
「Ugh, that kind of type?
There are definitely guys who forget you're human and look at you like there's nothing else but sex on their minds」 Shouko spat out with disgust.
Shion and Chiya nodded in agreement, casting concerned glances toward Tetsubo.
"Ugh."
It felt like a knife was stabbing into my heart again and again.
「Wha? No, no, Souisuke is different!」
Summoning a spell, she hurriedly denied it as I took another hit.
"S-so that's how it is...?"
I'm aware that I notice her chest, and I have a vivid memory of noticing my own underwear, too.
"Heh, I think Sohsuke-kun is different. You see, what he does isn't really unconscious; it feels more like a 'reflex.' Besides, if he looks away or realizes he's made someone uncomfortable, he always apologizes."
"Mm. What we're talking about are people who look at you with a 'self-aware' sexual gaze. It's not uncommon for them to show no sign of caring if you dislike it; they'll just lick their lips or give you that kind of face."
"Exactly! Yeah, having an opinion is your freedom, but if someone says stop and you still keep grinning about it, or you're just cool with being that way when it's clearly bothering me, I seriously hate it!"
It's often said, but even if someone is dressed in flashy or revealing clothing, it doesn't necessarily mean they are trying to appeal to the opposite sex.
People should have the right to wear whatever makes them comfortable, and directing leering looks at them is rude.
At the very least, I hope people have enough self-control to refrain when they know it's making someone uncomfortable.
"... All three of you seem pretty close with Kuuno-kun."
For a split second, Yotae smiled with a playful gleam.
"But Kuuno-kun? I think it's inappropriate to direct such wicked gazes at all three of us so frequently that they notice."
"Yes..."
"As for me, I don't mind if that's the case."
"Sohsuke-kun is a gentleman, and he's been doing so much for us since we came here, so I guess I'm fine with it, too."
"Ugh... I, uh, a little bit is..."
The three of them had shielded me from the impact, but at my response, Yotae’s face twisted in discomfort.
"Tamano-kun, what on earth did you do in just one night..."
Yotae’s face was crimson up to her ears, though I’m pretty sure nothing like what she was imagining had happened.
...Well, aside from the progress with Chiyu, at least.
"For now, let's retrieve that boar and head back to base. Yotae, if you don't mind, would you come with us? I want to hear your side of things, and we can share some food."
If Yotae didn't want to stick around with me, that was her choice.
If anything, I'd be willing to split the resources.
As Moyo said, I do have a spirit of mutual aid, but I also held enough goodwill for Yotae to offer that.
In an environment like school, serious kids who try to make the people around them follow the rules tend to get shunned.
And yet Yotae kept trying to do what was right, always pushing herself forward.
Our relationship had only been that of sitting next to each other in class, but I didn't dislike a person like her at all.
"...I, uh, I'll have to rely on you. And, well, I said some weird things earlier, but I trust Tamano-kun too."
Hmm, has there ever been anything worth trusting?
Well, asking for it would be pretty damn tactless.
I headed toward the boar and stashed it in my [Inventory].
While Yotzue marveled at seeing an [Inventory] for the first time, I closed the distance to Mashiro.
"Mashiro~! Can you carry five people? Huh? If it's Minori Rinna, you'd carry her even if it kills you? Hahahaha, you pervert."
After that, riding on Mashiro as she pumped herself up with determination, we made our way back to base.

Multiple updates today, here's the first one.
While riding Fenrir to search for wild boars, we also found a beautiful girl.
And she seemed to be being attacked by a boar.
We didn't hesitate to rush in to help her.
Actually, it was Mashiro who rushed in, responding to her blonde summoner's command. "Charge! Mashiro!"
Following her summoner's instructions, Mashiro let out a battle cry and charged the boar from the side.
It was like something you'd see in a movie, where a fleeing criminal gets hit by a truck and gets thrown away.
There was a loud thud and the sensation of a car coming to a sudden stop.
Then, before our eyes, the boar was lifted into the air and crashed into a tree.
It fell to the ground, motionless. "I-I did it in one hit..."
--I guess Fenrir can kill a boar with one hit...
"W-What...!? A-a wolf monster...!?"
The girl doesn't seem to see us and continues to point the branch at Mashiro, flustered.
No, if she's a mage, she should be holding a staff, right?
"Wait, Chairman! It's me! Kouno!"
I yell from behind Mashiro, and the girl—Shizakou—stops moving.
After a few seconds, her gaze rises and locks onto us. "…K-Kouno-kun?"
Shizakou is the class president of 2-A and sits to my right.
That's why I could also hear my conversation with Senyuu and Shouzi very clearly.
Shizawa, who overheard the conversation about abilities, probably thought about what kind of ability she would have.
"I'm here too, Minorin." "You're surprised, right? I understand, Shizawa-san." "The ride is great."
Shouzi, Shion, and Senyuu also call out to Shizawa.
Well, Senyuu's just giving her opinion.
After getting Mashiro to bow down to us, we descend to the ground.
「It's okay now, Chairman. That boar was taken care of by this guy.」
「My name's Mashiro! Please remember it, Minori.」
Shouko petted Mashiro and praised her while adding some information.
「C-could it be that this is what Kwan-ah was talking about? The summoning ability?」
It seems that the Four Sticks had been listening to our conversation in the dream. 「Yeah, that's right.」
「D-did I get saved?」
「Yeah, you're safe now. You don't have to run away anymore.」 「Fufu...」
The serious, resolute Four Sticks, who never shows any weakness.
Seems she felt relieved, and her face crumpled as she started crying.
I took out the handkerchief that Shouko had returned to me yesterday and hurriedly offered it to her.
Of course, it was from my 'Inventory' and was clean.
She accepted it and said "Thank you," but didn't use it to wipe her face. Instead, she came closer to me and leaned her head on my shoulder. 「F-four sticks!」 「I'm sorry, just for a moment.」 「A-ah.」
I was able to transfer with Senyuu from the start, and Shako and Shion came to me together.
But if I had spent the night alone on a desert island,
it would have been quite a shock to meet my classmates again.
After scratching the air in confusion, I gently patted Yashiro's back.
I was able to talk to Shako smoothly since she was a friend, but I hadn't even exchanged contact information with Yashiro, and it was difficult to know how to act around her.
"Yup, yup, I understand, Minori. Being alone in the forest is really lonely and tough." Shako deeply empathized.
「Sousuke-kun, Shouko-chan, and Chiyu-chan are all really kind and dependable, so it's okay, Shizou-san.」
Shion spoke in a reassuring tone.
「Black-haired ponytail, serious, big-breasted president... another harem member has joined.」
Chiyu, you really are on a normal track. You're reliable in this situation.
Eventually, Shizou must have calmed down, because she moved away from me.
She wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and then bowed her head toward me.
「I'm sorry, I showed you something indecent.」 「N-no, it's okay, don't worry about it.」
「It's not that simple. I was relieved to see you, Koji-kun, but I acted like an idiot and did something inappropriate... I must have made you uncomfortable.」
「No, I didn't feel that way at all. Actually, it made me a little excited.」
Yotsuzuka looks apologetic, so I try to reassure her by joking around.
Her face turns red and she trembles as she shouts.
「E-excited? I mean, even though it's my fault, thinking such lewd thoughts is bad...!」 Lecherous.
In trying not to use lewd words, she might be making things sound even more lewd.
Well, maybe the problem lies with the guys who would react to such things.
If the president says so, calling a man's member a penis or a male organ will still cause a reaction. Sad state of being a man...
Yotsuzuka lowers her voice as if she's realized something, takes a deep breath, and clears her throat.
「Ahem. I'm sorry, I got carried away. Thank you again, Koji-kun, Ise-san, Kanou-san, Yomi-san, and Mashiro-san, for helping me.」 Yotsuzuka bows politely.
「No problem! That's what friends are for!」
「Heh. I didn’t do anything. By the way, are you alone, Shijou-san?」
Shouko answered with a smile, and Shion subtly probed.
「Yeah, I’m alone. That said, I’ve encountered classmates before, but you two are the first.」 「Is that so?」
「Well, I won’t say their names, but yesterday I ran into two guys in the forest. They asked me to walk with them, but... their gaze was kind of scary.」
She had tried to leave, but the two of them had followed her for a while.
Eventually, they tried to touch her, so she used magic to scare them off.
The two of them apparently didn’t have any real way to fight back, so they ran away.
「Wow, that kind of thing? There are guys who forget that you’re human and only think about sex, right?」 Shouko said disdainfully.
Shion and Senyuu nodded in agreement, looking at Shijou sympathetically. 「Ugh.」
It felt like knives were being stabbed into my heart.
「Wh-what? No, no, Souta’s not like that, right?」
Shouko noticed the damage I was taking and hurriedly denied it. 「R-Right...?」
I also have a lot of memories where I noticed my chest and my underwear.
Heh, I also don’t think that’s the case with Souzou-kun. You see, Souzou-kun’s is more like an unconscious reaction, or rather, a reflex. Plus, he looks away or apologizes if he thinks he’s made someone uncomfortable.
Hmm. What we’re talking about is a deliberate, sexual gaze. People who do it without considering whether the other person is uncomfortable, and who look like they’re licking their tongues, aren’t rare either.
That’s right! I mean, you can have your opinions, but it’s really annoying when someone doesn’t stop even after you tell them to!
It’s often said that even if someone dresses provocatively, it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re trying to attract the opposite sex.
They have the right to wear what they like, and it’s rude to look at them with lecherous eyes.
At the very least, it’s best to stop if the other person seems uncomfortable.
“…The three of you are close to Kouno-kun, aren’t you?”
Kiyoushi smiled warmly.
“However, Kouno-kun? It’s not a good thing to be giving them all lecherous looks often enough for them to notice.” “Yes…”
“I’m fine with Sou-kun.”
“Souzou-kun’s a gentleman, and he’s been taking such good care of me since I got here, so I’m okay with it.”
「Ugh... I-I can do a little bit too.」
The three of them had protected me, but Four Rod's face was contorted in response.
"Kouno-kun, what did you do in one night...?"
Four Rod's ears are as red as a tomato, but I don't think anything like what she's imagining happened.
Well, except for the progress with Senyuu.
"Let's go back to base and retrieve the boar. If you're not against it, would you like to come with us? I have some things to talk about and I can offer you food."
If Four Rod doesn't want to be with me, that's her choice. I could even share some resources with her.
As Chouko said, there's a spirit of mutual aid, and I have a good feeling about Four Rod.
In an environment like school, earnest kids who try to make others follow the rules are often ostracized.
Even so, Four Rod always tried to be right and do her best.
Though we were only acquaintances, I didn't dislike Four Rod.
"...Please, I-I'm sorry for saying something weird earlier, but I do believe in you, Kouno-kun."
Well, was there anything that would make them believe me?
It would be rude to ask that, wouldn't it?
I headed toward the boar and stored it in my 'Inventory.'
While the Four Rods were surprised at seeing the 'Inventory' for the first time, I approached Mashiro.
"Hey Mashiro, can you fit five people? Eh? Even Miorin, even if she's dead? Ahaha, you're perverted."
After that, we returned to base riding on Mashiro, who showed off her strength.
Daily 1st place & Weekly 1st place achieved!!!!!!!!!
I'm so happy...!!!! The daily streak is now four days in a row. I'm grateful...!
Now that this has happened, the next goal is monthly 1st place... (Endless desire)
The overall evaluation needs to be twice as high, so it's a high wall,
but I'll continue to work hard, so please support me.
I'm a bit busy today, so I was only able to update three chapters.
I still have plenty of motivation, so please!
