"I Reincarnated as a Villainess in a Transsexual Format, but I’m the Only One Playing a Yuri Game" Author: Taira Chosho --- Chapter 629: "Something’s Up with Momiji?" The cultural festival is over, and we've started a new week. However, since the end of the festival, I can't shake the feeling that something is off with Momiji. Before, whenever Momiji helped me change clothes, she'd complain about how my underwear was disheveled or didn't fit right. She'd try to take them off once, adjust everything, and stuff it back in the cup. Or when I was in the bath, she'd offer to scrub my back and end up touching other places. Lately, though, she hasn’t been doing such things as much. Sure, she still adjusts my underwear while I change and washes my back in the bath, but now it's more like she genuinely fixes my underwear and washes my back without the extra touches. I used to feel like she was touching excessively, but recently there's been less of that. However, that doesn’t mean it's completely gone. There are times when she suddenly pounces on me, touching excessively as if a switch flips on and off. Could it be... has Momiji developed bipolar disorder? "Hey, Yuzu... Do you think Momiji could be bipolar?" "What? Hahaha! If Master Momiji, who does as she pleases, is bipolar, then most of the world would be as well!" "Come on! I'm serious here!" "I'm serious too! Hahaha!" Despite her words, it's clear Yuzu is just messing around. I'm genuinely worried that something might be wrong with Momiji, but Yuzu, who calls her master, doesn't seem concerned. "Haven’t you noticed anything strange about Momiji recently, Yuzu? Aren’t you worried?" "Ah... well..." Yuzu seemed about to say something, then suddenly shut her mouth as if she had an epiphany. She blatantly changes the subject from what she was initially about to discuss. "Don't worry! Master Momiji is... let's see... Exactly! She's breaking out of her shell and trying to grow! Just watch over her! Whether she'll succeed or fail, I don't know! Hahaha!" Seriously... what's so funny about that... It's your master we're talking about... But no matter how I pressed, Yuzu continued to evade my questions and wouldn’t give a straight answer. I’m worried about Momiji, but with the information I have, there’s not much I can do. Yuzu might be laughing off my concerns, but I still worry. Is everything really alright? ----- After the cultural festival ended last week, the academy has settled into tranquility. Of course, multiple issues are always simmering, but there’s nothing urgent regarding academy events. Traditionally, student council duties are handed over after the festival. The outgoing student council's final major task is the festival, after which they pass responsibilities to the new council. The new council, without immediate pressing schedules, gradually acclimates to its duties. This suggests student council transitions occur now due to lack of busy events but, owing to our year’s incident, the previous members resigned early, forcing the new council to take over the festival unexpectedly. If all went as usual, the transition would've happened last week, allowing the new council to embark on its duties in earnest. However, this year’s council is undoubtedly more robust, having managed the festival already. "Pardon me." "Oh, Kujo-san." "Sakuya-sama!" Before going to the Gokita Society salon after classes, I decided to stop by the student council room. After knocking and receiving permission, I entered. As Masaki glanced briefly from the papers on his desk and acknowledged me, Natsume stood up upon noticing me and tried to approach. "Namba Natsume! Who said you could leave your seat? Don't concern yourself with unnecessary matters when your tasks aren't finished! If you have spare time, prove you can handle your duties properly!" "No unnecessary?! It's my job to welcome Sakuya-sama if he's here!" For nobles, halting work to greet a visiting guest is standard. Even company executives pause their tasks to welcome visitors. However, I wasn’t a guest; I didn’t announce a visit beforehand. In this scenario, Masaki’s advice that ongoing tasks shouldn’t be halted just for arrivals is correct. "Namba-kun, Chairman Oshikoji is right in this case. I'm neither a visitor nor had any prior arrangement. It's inappropriate for a vice president to stop work just to welcome someone like me." "Ugh... Sakuya-sama..." Natsume puts on a face akin to that of an abandoned puppy, seemingly about to whimper. But I won't spoil him. Had it been a cute girl, I might’ve been swayed, but from a guy, it’s slightly irritating. Plus, other gazes in the room are quite intense. Since elections allowed the current council to assume duty, I've often visited the student council room. However, except for Masaki and Natsume, other members offer chilly receptions. It's evident, even to me, that I'm not welcomed. So why do I continue to visit the student council room? "How's the work going?" "Oh, thanks to Sakuya Kujo, things are proceeding smoothly." "Yes! We're working hard to meet Sakuya-sama’s expectations!" Masaki and Natsume gave quite reassuring responses. Given the complications and threats during the council’s inception, especially with Natsume’s unstable position against pressures from factions like the Ichijo group, I watched over the council's activities after its formation, offering some help in early problem resolution. Natsume’s progress and work were visible too, and they seemed fine. "Perhaps it’s time I stop frequenting this place unnecessarily. If there's a need for discussion between Gokita Society and the Student Council, feel free to contact me. Beyond that, I’ll refrain from visiting the student council any further." "Alright. If anything arises..." "What?! Please continue to dominate the student council, Sakuya-sama! Wasn’t that my duty?" The student council room fell completely silent. As it is, I was already seen as having assisted in the student council president election, and it's presumed that I recommended Natsume for vice-president. If anything suspicious were said about me in front of the other student council members, it would be bound to lead to misunderstandings. "Namba-kun...? I have no direct involvement with the student council, nor do I intend to interfere. Be careful with statements that might lead to such misconceptions." I pleaded with my eyes, signaling Natsume to stop making unnecessary remarks. However, it was apparent that my message didn’t get through to him. "Oh! Right! We need to maintain that official stance, don't we? Understood!" You haven't understood anything! You don't get it at all! "……" See what I mean?! Look around! The other student council members are giving us completely cold stares! Watch your words, kid! You’re making it sound like I’m manipulating the student council from behind the scenes! "Ugh... Chairman Oshikoji... it's your responsibility to mentor him, right? Please ensure his proper education." "Indeed... I'm sorry... Namba Natsume is exceptional at his duties. It's just when it comes to Sakuya Kujou, he turns into a fool, so I hope you'll overlook that." I've left the mentoring of Natsume to Masaki. If Natsume is this foolish, it's because Masaki hasn’t educated him properly. Then again, during the announcement of his vice-presidency, he loudly declared such a thing in public and bowed to me. Perhaps Natsume is a bit of a fool. Even Ibuki and Shikimi, despite being academically gifted, can be downright goofy, so maybe it's not as uncommon as it seems. "Well, I'm leaving now. Farewell." "Oh." "Sakuya-sama! Allow me to escort you!" "Namba Natsume! I told you, you don’t need to do that, just focus on your work! It's because of actions like this that you are—" Ignoring Masaki's frustrated shout, I left the student council room and headed to the Gokita Society salon. --- With academy events settled down, there aren't imminent issues pressing at the moment. While it's hard to claim Natsume's safety is assured, there haven’t been any reports of incidents lately. Neither Tsubaki nor Fuki appear to be bullied, so everything seems to be going relatively smoothly. Still, there's one thing that bothers me. "Mo~miji!" "Eek!?" I approached Momiji quietly from behind as she tidied my room and called out to her. Usually, Momiji, who remains expressionless and cool, rarely gets surprised, but now she let out a cute yelp of shock. "S-Sakuya-sama… When you genuinely sneak up on me like that, it’s really bad for my heart. Please show mercy…" "Really?" Usually, it's Momiji who sneaks up on me. But when the tables turn, she doesn’t handle it well. While surprised Momiji is undeniably cute, that wasn’t my intention, so I should be more considerate. "So, what were you up to?" "What?! Uh… well… um…" Momiji’s speech faltered. She could've easily claimed to be folding sheets or putting away laundry, but she stumbled. It was supposed to be my 'meal time.' Normally during meals, Momiji, as an attendant, would be there, but today, Tsubaki and Fuki were supposed to serve me. So, it was unusual for Momiji to be free during my meal. I casually returned to my room and found her there doing something. I hadn’t left in the middle of a meal but returned before it started. What exactly was she up to? The sheets were changed and looked neat. Any dirty items would have been packed away when I changed after returning. There was no reason for clean laundry to be brought in now. If Momiji had immediately given a plausible explanation, I wouldn't have thought much of it. But her hesitation made me suspicious. Could this be related to her odd recent behavior? It might be worth probing a bit. "Hmm? What's this? Were you doing something secret?" "No, um… err…" Momiji’s gaze darted around, and her words stumbled. Something's up. "Is it here? Gotcha!" "Ah!" I forcibly took the item she was hiding behind her back. As I pulled it forward, there it was... a light pink frilly... my... underwear… "...Huh?" "..." Huh? This is the one I was wearing just a moment ago. No mistake. It should have been packed away as dirty laundry when I got back and changed. Why is it here now, and why was Momiji holding it? "Oh... I see now..." "Ugh..." Momiji looked dejected as if realizing her rookie mistake got exposed. Even as a seasoned worker, this kind of slip-up visible to me must be disappointing. "You forgot to pack it away earlier, didn’t you? That’s why you rushed back to grab the missing piece and felt embarrassed when I caught you!" "What? Oh... ah! Yes! That's it! How embarrassing! I neglected to confirm if the laundry was complete! Definitely! Never because lately Tsubaki and Fuki have been handling the laundry and I couldn’t get used items, so I was discreetly going to retrieve them later!" "...Huh?" Did Momiji just say something... odd? Surely not... No way would a competent and elegant lady like Momiji try to steal my underwear. I must be imagining it because, as a guy from a previous life, I find women's underwear intriguing. It's not normal for one woman to steal another's. "Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, right? It's understandable." "Y-yes! Sorry, Sakuya-sama! Thank you!" When I handed Momiji back the underwear, she received it delicately, determination flickering as if to not forget it this time. As our hands overlapped... "Ki-ma-shi-ta-wa!!!" The familiar voices of those two came from behind the door. They probably came to call me for dinner. Despite frequent reminders against peeking, those two's habit never seems to improve. Part of a maid or butler’s basic skill set is to sense the atmosphere and enter only when appropriate, avoiding poor timing. But peeking so blatantly makes them unfit as maids or butlers. Inside, Momiji and I had been talking, so they were probably judging when the right moment to speak up was, but even so, they shouldn't be timing their entry so obviously enough for those inside to notice. Maybe I need to secretly teach Tsubaki and Fuki techniques for gauging the room’s atmosphere more subtly. --- Login to Bookmark Add to Bookmarks Please log in to use the bookmark feature.
