Stealing Spree-Novel

Chapter 1694  Blissful Second Room

After making sure that everything was fine for the other girls and apologizing to the two seniors unrelated to what was happening, I went to the next room.

Even though it looked like Hana was about to suffer from Haruko and Miyako's hands, it was actually not that serious. It'll be harmless and will only serve as their way to dig into the girl's character more.

It happened in the past but I better not talk about it anymore. It was two separate but similar situations but all I can say is… Haruko and Miyako made it easy for me to conquer those girls.

Well, wherever those girls are currently, they deserve to be at peace without my influence. My apology for them is still pending but it's best for them not to encounter me again.

I mean, with the way I am currently, there's a huge chance that my interest and desire for them will get rekindled as soon as we meet.

And for sure, they won't like that. They already escaped from my clutches, after all. It’s better to stay that way.

Anyway, I trust Haruko and Miyako not to overdo it that much. Besides, if there is any of Hana's traits that was as impressive as her top-notch beauty, it should be her mental fortitude. She wouldn't break down completely.

Furthermore, she has an ally in the form of Maaya and perhaps, Kanzaki.

I'll be looking forward to the result later. I just hope she stopped being that obstinate. She could do a lot more than that but the girl kept on limiting herself to non-overarching methods to get an upper hand.

I’m hoping to see her act so confident again wherein nothing can slow her down. But thinking about it, the reason why she’s struggling was probably because of how my mentality changed compared to the past. She found herself lost on how to proceed other than trying to take her chances to insert herself in between me and the other girls.

Our agreement that night in her house only gave both of us an edge – it didn’t give her that much of an advantage.

Upon entering the second room, I was greeted by the same delectable aroma of the dishes served and the high-class tea that they were enjoying.

Then, my eyes were instantly blocked by whoever ran up to me as soon as I appeared.

In this case, it’s Marika whose excitement was bursting at the seams. If not for me catching her right away, she might’ve looked like a ball bouncing up and down in excitement.

“Ruki-kun. Hear this…” She started as she entered my embrace. Then she glanced behind. I followed her gaze and found Shizu and Nami nodding at her.

Oh. Did they do something for her? And to be this thrilled about it that she couldn’t wait until I sat down with them to tell me, it must’ve been too favorable for her. And if I’m not wrong, it involves me as well.

“Hmm? What is it?”

I put on a smile and acted just as excited as her which further added to the girl’s liveliness. Really, compared to when she’s in the middle of her followers, she’d become more cheerful even with the short time that she spent with my girls.

Being treated by them as an equal and not someone they revered or followed brought out this effect on her.

I must say, this is truly impressive. This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

“Uhm… Next week, I’ll be joining you during lunch. I’ll cook for you!”

Another hop and Marika’s happiness as she conveyed the good news was once again transferred to me.

Then, she elaborated on that.

To get away from her followers or Ichihara Jun’s minions, Shizu or Nami would be coming to get her. Well, the former hadn’t eaten with us yet since she’s always busy. But with this, it looks like I’ll be seeing her soon. It won’t just be us eating what she cooked, she’ll also dine with us.

Of course, it will probably happen in that empty clubroom. If the two of them join us in the classroom, imagine the uproar it will cause.

Although it’s already chaotic recently, the addition of Shizu and Marika will multiply that multiple times in magnitude.

Even if we fend them off, I doubt everyone will feel comfortable eating in that situation. As shameless as I am, I also don’t know anyone gawking at us while we’re eating.

After doting on her as I listened to everything she wanted to relay to me, Marika grabbed my hand and led me to their table, joining everyone there.

The same as the previous room, the ones in here were mostly the girls from our school with the addition of Ria, Aoi, Yua, Elizabeth, and Yukari.

Rae is here but Kana and Rumi are probably in the third room with Akane and the rest of the girls.

Surprisingly, Juri and Setsuna-nee are not here as well. When I asked Nami about it, Juri she told me that Juri was taken by Akane and Yae to their room. Setsuna-nee simply followed along with her friend. She’s confused, of course. She didn’t know them and they’re not from our school.

Maybe I’ll get an earful from her when I show up later.

Ria was sandwiched by Aya and Rae. It’s impossible for me to guess what they’re talking about but judging from the glittering eyes of both Aya and Rae, they’re probably too fascinated at Ria’s depth of knowledge.

Well, when they saw me looking in their direction, the three of them greeted me with their warm smiles before they stood up to get a kiss from me.

When I asked them what their topic was about which made the three of them look engrossed by it, Ria answered smugly before bringing up a book title that sounded foreign to me.

It’s a pop fiction but it appeared to have caught both the fantasy lover and the knowledge girl’s interest.

I listened to their general summary of it and expressed the same fascination but as busy as I am, I couldn’t join them in there or the others would be left waiting.

Aoi and Yua were joined by Saki and Hina. While they’re not as serious with their discussion, I could see them having fun together.

Ah. Right. Kikuchi was also with them. Thankfully, that girl wasn’t sharing her accursed fondness for that certain type of book that involved handsome boys and swordfights.

When I approached them, Aoi and Saki didn’t hesitate to push me down and have their way with me.

Well, not to the point that I got naked though. It’s more kisses and caresses. Yua and Hina, on the other hand, helped me get up once the two were done. They also fixed my hair according to their preferences before taking photos of us.

In the end, before I returned to my seat in the middle of Nami and Marika, Aoi and Saki joined in the photo while Kikuchi awkwardly waited at the side.

Elizabeth sat beside Nami. They really hit it off after their continuous messages to each other. Thankfully, Nami had yet to be fully influenced by Elizabeth’s chuunibyou antics. However, she would often use that to tease me. And now, with the addition of Marika, the Cursed Princess was extremely interested in Marika’s heritage… and her golden ringlets.

Yep. Maybe one of these days, I might see the girl donning a new hairstyle. It’s also quite a coincidence that their hair had an almost similar color. The ringlets could probably look good for Elizabeth and her crown.

On the other hand, If I see Marika with a small tiara on her head, I will instantly understand that Elizabeth successfully influenced her.

Here’s to hoping she won’t adopt her way of talking. She already had this nuance of a high-born noble lady. So I guess that will be unlikely to happen.

As for Yukari, she’s also having a great time with Shizu. Maybe she’s trying to learn how to be more confident and reduce her tendency to be gullible at times. Even though she already changed a lot from before, the girl put it as her goal to strive to be better. And that's all for me.

Like with the other girls, I got myself pretty worked up to continue doting on them. I wouldn’t suddenly barge in on their conversation but my presence near them alone was enough for the girls to switch their attention to me which would eventually lead to us bonding emotionally and physically.

When it was time for me to leave for the next room, the girls bid me good luck because they knew that with Setsuna-nee’s presence there, I would have to tread carefully not to flip her switch and be suspicious of me.
