538 - I Was Genderswapped and Reincarnated as a Villainess, but I’m Making this My Personal Yuri Game

### Chapter 538: Educating the Underclassmen As meticulously scheduled days of spring lectures and etiquette lessons during the spring break progressed smoothly, the recent rewarding event for everyone's diligent study efforts also concluded without a hitch. "Aaaahhhh!" "S-Sakuya-sama? What's wrong?" In my room, I suddenly crouched down and screamed, and Momiji hurried over to me. The other day, during the reward event... I was made to wear such an embarrassing outfit. Made to serve in a maid uniform with a skirt that barely reached my knees... it became another humiliating memory. "Aaaah!" "Sakuya-sama!? Are you okay? Sakuya-sama!" The moment the memory resurfaced, my face flushed with heat, and I involuntarily let out a cry. It was so mortifying that if there were a hole, I'd want to crawl into it. To have worn such a frilly, cute outfit and serve while being watched by everyone was too humiliating. Even the maid uniform wasn't ordinary like the ones our family maids or the others wear. What they provided was more of a pretend maid outfit, all style and no substance. For a guy like me to wear something like that — it's beyond mere black history. "Haa... Hoo... I-I'm okay..." "Sakuya-sama... If you're not feeling well, perhaps it's best to rest today..." Though Momiji expresses concern, I'm fine. In fact, being fussed over makes it even more embarrassing, so I wish she'd stop. It's not a matter of physical illness; rather, it's the indescribable feeling one gets after making a painfully embarrassing mistake. "No, really, I'm okay..." "Are you sure? Please don't overdo it." Despite her lingering doubt, Momiji voiced her concerns. Truly, there's no physical ailment causing this. Besides, today I have practice for the upcoming concert. It's an invaluable chance to see underclassmen and upperclassmen, opportunities that are dwindling quickly. "Shall we go then?" "Yes... If anything happens, please let us know immediately." Having finally regained my composure, I headed for the concert practice amidst Momiji’s worried yet supportive gestures. ... Upon arriving at the Konoe Production studio, I found that most of the group had already gathered. "Good day, everyone." "Good day, Sakuya-chan." "Good morning, Sakuya-onee-chan!" Not just my classmates, but also the underclassmen responded warmly to my greeting, gathering around. I greeted everyone and confirmed the day's schedule. "Azami-chan cannot join until this afternoon, and..." "I'm sorry, but I can only participate in the morning session," Satsuki-chan said apologetically. People have their commitments and are unable to gather every time. Although fewer classmates were present today, unlike before. "It's not like this is our last practice before the concert, and many seem to have other commitments today." "There’s just a lack of resolve. I'd sacrifice anything to be with Sakuya-chan!" Kaya-san declared. Kaya-san always expresses such sentiments and participates whenever possible unless there’s a significant hindrance. However, not everyone can do that. Today, the missing turnout is likely due to the aftermath of the recent reward day. Although that day was initially slated for concert practice, we altered it mid-semester to commemorate students' test achievements. Those who couldn't make it to regular practice days managed to clear their schedules for the reward day, causing today’s lack of availability. "It's time. Begin the practice." "Yes!" As Shishou spoke, the underclassmen excitedly headed to their respective instruments. We, too, prepared for our practice. Although it was a bit disappointing that the classmate group was smaller, I resolved to give my best in today's practice. ... Following the morning practice, we had lunch together. The meal, provided by Konoe Production, wasn’t bad. "It's delicious! Sakuya-onee-chan!" "Eh? Yes, it is." Akigiri's bright smile prompted my slightly vague response. Truthfully, while it wasn't unpleasant, it was simply... average. If it were Konoe's arrangement, one might expect something more befitting. But here, Konoe Production, albeit staffed with better meals than other colleagues and affiliated talents, still fell short for our standards. Konoe Production is a profit-oriented company and its members are just ordinary people, unlike us who hail from esteemed families. The talents contribute to the company’s profits, whereas we provide none. Even though we receive better meals than the staff and talents, complaining would be ungracious. Admittedly, the food quality wasn't great. If possible, arranging our own meals might be preferable. But since Konoe Production generously provides, it doesn't feel right to say so. Given that, if affiliated talents questioned "Why are non-contributing members receiving extravagant meals?" and heard us replying, "The meal quality is lacking, so we'll arrange our own," tensions would rise. Besides, Akigiri and the others seem content with the meal. "Satsuki-chan has already left, and Azami-chan isn’t here yet..." "Sakuya-onee-chan, are you feeling lonely? Akigiri and I are here for you!" Whispering unbidden thoughts, Akigiri's cute gesture of tugging at my clothes and uttering such adorable words warmed my heart. "Oh! Akigiri-chan, how can you be so adorable?!" "Mmh..." Akigiri's unbearably cute remark drew me in, prompting me to hug and affectionately ruffle him. Truly adorable. Such an endearing creature! "Lord Kujou, I'm here too!" "Sakuya-sama!" "Sakuya-onee-chan!" "Oh my, my! Aren't you all a bunch of sweeties? Come on, come here!" The others eagerly swarmed around, each vying for attention. I lovingly showered each one in turn. What bliss! Even though these angels were soon entering fifth grade, they remained persistently adorable! I longed to take them home and cherish them. "Sakuya-onee-sama! You're doting too much on Akigiri and the others!" "Yeah! It's unfair!" "Rindou-chan... Lee-chan..." Rindou and Lee puffed their cheeks at my preferential treatment towards Akigiri and the rest. However, wasn't it natural that I should show affection to those who came to me? Those who held back couldn't expect the same treatment. "Lord Kujou, these children hail from simpler families, families not of nobility. Thus, they can easily express affection towards you! But we, due to our upbringing and lineage, cannot do so freely." "Huh... I see?" Shakan's explanation was more or less understood. Was it that while Rindou, Lee, and Shakan wished to express their fondness like Akigiri but restrained themselves due to their noble upbringing? Were they envious of Akigiri's freedom despite wanting the same? "Akigiri and the others are always clinging to Sakuya-onee-sama! Today, it's our turn for pampering!" "Uh... Umm..." Rindou's straightforward appeal left me uncertain of how to respond. Nonetheless, it was refreshing to have her vocalize her feelings. It was far preferable to know what they thought and felt rather than stay silent. "Alright... Well, let's prioritize these ladies today, shall we? Are you alright with that, Akigiri and the rest?" "Yes!" "Please, prioritize the Kuga members." The ever-amiable Akigiri and others agreed to yield to Rindou and her companions today. With their consent, all issues were resolved. "So, everyone, let's give Rindou and her friends priority today." "Yay!" Rindou and her group celebrated with high fives. Though Lee and Shakan often feigned discontent, moments like these showcased their authentic selves. "Muu! Suiren wants to join too!" "Huh? Suiren-chan?!" As everyone cheered, Suiren pounced on me. "Lord Hanazono, aren't you just trying to cozy up to Oginomachi Sanjou? Shouldn’t you be heading their way, then?" "Muuu! Why would you say that?!" "Suiren-chan! That’s my chest! I'm not the one saying— Ah!" Irritated by Lee's teasing, Suiren inadvertently squeezed at my chest, which made me unintentionally squeal. The unexpected sensation was embarrassing. "Hey! Why are you messing with Sakuya-onee-sama’s chest under this confusion?!" "Touch and win, they say! If you're jealous, why not try it yourself, Kuga-san?" Suiren, stop provoking them! If you say such things... "Oh... Is that so... Alright then! I too shall delight in Sakuya-onee-sama!" "W-Wait, Rindou-chan too?!" Swayed by Suiren's provocation, Rindou also jumped toward me, clinging to my opposite side and replicating the chest-touching. "Looks fun, doesn’t it, Sakuya-onee-chan!" "Next time, let’s do that too!" "Today is their priority day, after all." Hold on! Even Akigiri and the rest are joining in this mischief! I intended to scold them for behaving inappropriately in public, but... "Ah! No! Really, stop!" Flustered by Lee sneaking behind me, along with Shakan occasionally reaching in from the sides, my mind was unable to focus. At this rate, things would... truly... "What on earth are you all doing in such a place?" "Gah!" "Kaya-san..." Kaya-san, apparently fed up with the chaos, raised her voice. The underclassmen quickly retreated, stunned into silence. To them, Kaya-san, being the eldest and most reliable among us, could be quite intimidating. Whenever she spoke sternly, they shrunk back in submission. "What you were doing is tantamount to lewd behavior! Do you not feel embarrassed in front of everyone?!" "We’re sorry..." Chastised by Kaya-san, the younger ones were visibly crestfallen. Although I felt a twinge of sympathy, Kaya-san's reprimand was justified. Shielding them from consequences would only encourage a repeat, so I stood firm in my resolve to let her discipline them. "My beloved Sakuya-chan was a victim of your antics! You're not yet mature enough for such indulgences!" "What? Um, Kaya-san...?" Initially, I took comfort in the thought that a reliable older sister was correcting the underclassmen, but soon, her words took on a mysterious turn. Kaya-san pulled me closer, pressing my head against her ample chest. "Now, come, Sakuya-chan... Forget those children and play with your elder sister. Here... It’s your favorite large chest. Feel free to indulge all you want, okay?" "I, um...?" Kaya-san's attempts to immerse my head further into her chest seemed out of place. Rather than lecturing the underclassmen on immodesty, wasn't this precisely the moment to instill those values? "Sakuya-onee-sama! Even my chest has started growing a bit lately!" "If size is the issue, among the elementary, Suiren's is the largest!" Well, though Suiren was indeed the biggest among the younger ones, she was a year older, which meant that she was... "Glare!" "—!" My train of thought was interrupted by Suiren's fierce glare. For some reason, she was particularly perceptive about this specific topic. It was as if she possessed an innate ability to detect when it arose in others' minds. "Sakuya-chan! It’s time to start the afternoon practice!" "Oh, right..." Called back to reality by Yuzuhara-chan, I, along with everyone else, refocused and prepared for the afternoon practice in a uniquely indescribable atmosphere. ### Navigation - Previous - Next - Table of Contents ### Features - Bookmark this story - Write a review To use the bookmark feature, please log in.
