Women’s locker room, door.

“Um… Haruru-san, are you sure we want to talk in the locker room? There’s no other place?”

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at Haruwaka Ayano who was standing barefoot in front of him, then looked at the empty locker room, his face showing hesitation.

Although there is no men’s locker room here, because the indoor swimming pool has been allocated to the women’s competitive swimming team for a long time, the boys’ locker room has long been converted into a women’s locker room.

Only the men’s bathroom was not specially modified, but when the women’s bathroom was full, the girls would run to the men’s bathroom next door.

But these reasons are not reasons to come to the locker room for a talk.

There are only two possibilities in the current situation. Either Haruwaka Ayano is full of jealousy and fell in love with him at first sight and wants to do something exciting in the locker room, or Haruwaka Ayano wants to trick him and coax him into the locker room and then call people over.

Well… considering that Ohaki Tachibana is also abnormally enthusiastic about him, it seems more likely that Haruwaka Ayano wants to trick him.

“Don’t worry, Manager Hikigaya. Everyone is in the swimming pool now. No one will come to the locker room. We will just say a few words and then leave.”

Haruwaka Ayano obviously knew that what she was doing could easily lead to misunderstanding. Her fair and delicate face blushed slightly, her fingers entangled together, and she lowered her head and explained in a low voice.

She also thought about finding other suitable places, but the swimming pool was filled with people, and there were only toilets, showers, and changing rooms. There were not many places suitable for conversation.

She couldn’t take Manager Hikigaya to the bathroom or shower room to talk, as that would make it easier for her and Manager Hikigaya to be misunderstood.

“…You don’t have to call me manager. Just call me Hikigaya or Hachiman. Since there’s nowhere else to go, let’s just go here. Just finish this quickly.”

Hikigaya Hachiman carefully observed Haruwaka Ayano’s shy and nervous expression and body movements, and felt that it was not an act, so he nodded and walked in first.

That’s right. Although he had had a long and in-depth conversation with Elise and Hayase Saki in the bathroom before, Elise had made all kinds of preparations that time, using cleaning magic, soundproofing barrier, and invisibility magic. Under normal circumstances, who would like to chat in the bathroom?

Forget it, he wasn’t afraid that Haruwaka Ayano would lock him in the locker room and ruin his reputation.

If that kind of thing really happened, he could just teleport away and then come back to teach Haruwaka Ayano, the troublemaker, a lesson.

Even if Haruwaka Ayano didn’t cause any trouble, it would be hard to explain if a boy in swimming trunks and a girl in competitive swimsuit were discovered in the locker room.

“Yes! Hikigaya-kun! Thank you very much for your trust!”

When Haruwaka Ayano saw Hikigaya Hachiman enter the locker room, she hurriedly followed him in and immediately closed the door after entering.

However, she didn’t notice at all that a petite figure appeared quietly at the corner, and after she closed the door, she walked silently out of the locker room.

“Chun Ruo, there is no one else here now. If you have anything that is inconvenient to say, you can say it now.”

Entering the locker room, Hikigaya Hachiman looked at Haruwaka Ayano, who didn’t seem to be planning to cause trouble but really wanted to discuss something, and asked directly.

Fortunately, he is now accustomed to being alone with beautiful girls. Otherwise, facing the beautiful girl who is wearing a competitive swimsuit that highlights her figure, with water droplets on her snow-white skin and a rosy face at such a close distance, he would not be able to control his physiological instincts in just swimming trunks.

“Um… Hayase-senpai said a while ago that she was under a lot of pressure and wanted to quit the club to rest for a few days. Although the captain didn’t say it, I know that she went to serve you, Hikigaya-kun.”

Haruwaka Ayano obviously didn’t think so much. She stood there hesitating for a while before whispering to Hikigaya Hachiman her real intention of looking for Hikigaya Hachiman.

“I noticed that after Hayase-senpai came back, her condition and performance improved significantly, and she smiled more often than before. So…so I want to ask, Hikigaya-kun, how did you guide her? How did Hayase-senpai’s performance improve so much?”

“Actually, my training results haven’t been good recently, and I’m a little stressed… If possible, could you please help me relieve the stress and improve my training results?”

Maybe other people didn’t notice Hayase-senpai’s situation, but Haruwaka Ayano, who was sensitive and a pessimist who always doubted herself, was very concerned about everyone’s situation.

She not only pays attention to her competitors in the same grade, but also to her seniors who are stronger than her, because the women’s swimming club pays more attention to strength. If Hayase-senpai, the official player who is the vice-captain, is not strong enough, it is very likely that a freshman will be substituted.

Hayase-senpai was also very strong before, but not much stronger than them. Today, Hayase-senpai is obviously much stronger than before, and the gap between her and Oaki-senpai is even greater.

Hayase-senpai has been in the Service Club recently and hasn’t participated in much training, so how come his strength has increased so much?

She noticed that Hayase-senpai, who was usually even less popular than her and always timid, had a lot more smiles on his face and was always looking in Hikigaya-kun’s direction, so she immediately guessed that Hayase-senpai had gone to the Service Club for further training.

Maybe the director knew that Hikigaya-kun was good at counseling people, otherwise why would he specially recruit a boy to be the manager of the women’s swimming club? There are so many girls in the school, wouldn’t it be easy to find a female manager? Obviously the director knew the real reason why Hayase-senpai became stronger.

“Forehead……”

Hikigaya Hachiman was stunned when he heard Haruwaka Ayano asking him how to counsel Hayase Saki and relieve her stress.

Should we say that Sayuri Yuxia and Ayano Haruwaka are in tune with each other? He hasn’t even told me what he’s here for, but he’s already been approached. He’s really an expert in this area, and has already educated several problem girls, including Shino Sakurai, Suzuno Ichinose, and Saki Hayase.

Apart from Yukinoshita Yukino, the most stubborn problem girl, Sakurai Shino, can be dealt with in just a few days.

But did Haruwaka Ayano misunderstand something? Did Saki’s improvement in swimming performance have nothing to do with his guidance?

He didn’t do anything to Saki. At most, he made Hayase do a lot of strenuous physical exercise.

But this is not the key to the improvement in performance. It has only been a few days, and Haruwaka Ayano should be very familiar with Saki’s strength. If Saki’s strength had not been visibly improved in the Service Club, it would be impossible for her to come alone in a room to ask him such a thing.

Well…then the only possibility is that he and Saki are too close.

According to Iris, the life energy in his body is very strong and the aura he exudes is very attractive. It is because of this strong aura of life that they fell in love with him at first sight and believed that he was the savior who would bring prosperity and revival to the elves.

Although Saki and the others are still young and do not have the urgent desire like Iris and the others to give birth to the next generation with excellent qualifications, even if they cannot absorb as efficiently as Iris and the others, the remaining life energy is good for their bodies.

Well…it’s probably physical fitness, such as physical strength, recovery ability, flexibility, etc. have been slightly enhanced, which is reflected in swimming as improved breath holding ability, longer sprint time, longer sprint distance, etc.

“Can’t you tell me? I overstepped my bounds, Hikigaya-kun. Just pretend I never asked.”

Haruwaka Ayano saw that Hikigaya Hachiman had been hesitating for a long time and did not answer her question, neither refusing nor agreeing. She thought that Hikigaya Hachiman was in a difficult situation, so she quickly waved her hands to indicate that it was okay and it didn’t matter.

Ugh… who can’t compare to Hayase-senpai who has a great figure, is introverted and timid, and is as cute as a little animal…

All she does is swim all day long and has little free time. She is neither cute nor popular. It is just her first meeting with Hikigaya Hachiman, so it is normal that he despises her and does not want to help her.

Woo woo woo…….

“It’s not that I can’t tell you, it’s just that this method is too special and it’s not convenient to use it on you. I’m not sure if it’s really effective.”

Seeing Haruwaka Ayano saying that she didn’t care but pouting as if she was about to cry but had no tears, Hikigaya Hachiman felt helpless and tried to comfort her.

It seems that Yuxia Sayuri did not trick him. This Haruwaka Ayano is indeed very negative and sensitive. He hasn’t said anything yet, but Haruwaka Ayano has already imagined something. She seems full of resentment and seems like she is about to cry.

However, compared to the socially phobic Pochi-chan who is almost mentally ill, the pessimistic Haruwaka Ayano is already very good.

It can even be said that she is easier to deal with than the autistic girl Sakurai Shino. As long as we encourage her unwaveringly, everything will be fine.

“The method is too special and inconvenient to use on me?”

Haruwaka Ayano stared blankly at Hikigaya Hachiman, completely unaware of what method Hayase Saki had used to improve her grades.

“To put it simply, my communication with Saki is… more intimate, so you may not be able to accept my method of relieving stress.”

Hikigaya Hachiman thought about it and did not mention things like life energy, but instead talked about what Sayuri Yuxia asked him to do to relieve stress.

If his guess was correct, and his life energy really had a significant effect on improving the performance of Haruwaka Ayano and the others, he would not rule out using it on Haruwaka Ayano.

But now he doesn’t know, so there is no need to use this method to deceive Haruwaka Ayano.

Although the two methods of improving performance, namely, eliminating stress and absorbing life energy, appear to be the same, there is no need for him to deceive Haruwaka Ayano with something uncertain.

This kind of thing requires mutual consent. He came to the women’s swimming team to help the team, not to cheat or deceive.

“Closer? Saki? Could it be that…”

Hearing this intimate name, Haruwaka Ayano’s pupils suddenly dilated. She looked at Hikigaya Hachiman in disbelief and did not dare to continue.

“Well, that’s what you think, so you have to think it over carefully.”

Hikigaya Hachiman nodded.

“Sorry! I was so presumptuous! I didn’t know that you, Hikigaya-kun, and Hayase-senpai were in a relationship!”

After getting the answer, Haruwaka Ayano’s ears turned red. She quickly bowed 90 degrees and apologized repeatedly.

Although she didn’t quite understand why lovers’ level of intimacy was needed to relieve stress, there was no need for Hikigaya-kun to lie to her. After all, she had already said that as if she hadn’t asked.

No wonder… Hayase-senpai resigned from the club and joined the Service Club, and Hikigaya-kun, a boy, was invited by the club leader to be the manager of the Women’s Swimming Club. It might be because of this reason.

Maybe it was Hayase-senpai’s request to be with his lover.

Given Hayase-senpai’s status as vice-minister, and his now significantly improved strength, it is very likely that the minister will agree to Hayase-senpai’s request.

However, she never expected that Hayase-senpai and Hikigaya-kun were lovers.

Even though Hayase-senpai, who was an introvert and cowardly person, was always busy with training like her, and he didn’t even have time to hang out with his childhood friend.

There have been many rumors recently about Hikigaya-kun having close relationships with an elf princess, a politician’s daughter, and a mermaid idol. However, due to the sensitive identities of the protagonists, no one dares to say these things openly, and they can only talk about them secretly with good friends.

The male fans of the mermaid idol alone would beat up anyone who spreads rumors, not to mention the elf princess who has a more noble status.

Even Hikigaya-kun, who has the most ordinary background, has a childhood sweetheart who is the student council president. If he talks nonsense in school, he will be caught by the discipline committee.

If Hikigaya-kun hadn’t said it, she would never have associated Hayase-senpai with Hikigaya-kun. After all, there are so many outstanding beautiful girls in the service club, and the introverted Hayase-senpai is probably the least noticeable one in the service club.

Huh? That’s not right!

Haruwaka Ayano apologized while digesting this extremely shocking news in her mind, and suddenly realized a serious problem.

It seems that Hayase-senpai has a childhood sweetheart in the swimming club.

Although she was not familiar with him, she knew that this childhood sweetheart was Hayase-senpai’s neighbor since childhood. Even though they had known each other for such a long time, Hayase-senpai had never developed a relationship with his childhood sweetheart.

How did the relationship between Hayase-senpai, who was cowardly, introverted and not at all proactive, and Hikigaya-kun from the Service Club develop so quickly?

What’s more, Hikigaya-kun also has a childhood sweetheart who is the student council president. How could Hayase-senpai, who is so brave that she doesn’t even dare to speak loudly in the all-girl swimming club, snatch the student council president’s lover?

If it were her, after entering the service department and seeing so many girls who were far more noble and outstanding than her, she would not dare to speak loudly.

“Hikigaya-kun, when did you and Hayase-senpai become lovers? Can you tell me?”

Haruwaka Ayano quickly raised her head and asked Hikitaya Hachiman cautiously.

“I never said that Saki and I were lovers, I just said that Saki and I had a close relationship.”

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at Haruwaka Ayano, who looked like an innocent girl, and said with amusement.

With Saki’s personality, she would be excited if someone were her good friend, but would be extremely scared if someone were her lover.

I guess a girl like Iris who is considerate, gentle and generous is the most suitable one to be my lover.

Vinate is actually the type of good wife and mother, but she probably won’t be able to accept his depravity and will want him to mend his ways.

“Aren’t you and Hayase-senpai lovers?!”

When Haruwaka Ayano heard this answer, she couldn’t control her shock even though she had already guessed it in her mind.

They are not lovers but they have very intimate behavior…

Could it be that this is what the discipline committee members said…improper relationships between opposite sexes are not allowed on campus? !

“We are not lovers, but we use this lover’s way to improve our grades…”

Haruwaka Ayano looked at Hikigaya Hachiman with a flushed face, biting her moist lips.

“Don’t get me wrong Haru, Saki and I didn’t do this to improve her grades, we just noticed now that her grades have improved.”

Hikigaya Hachiman immediately corrected him, saying that he and Saki were in love with each other, no, it was Saki who kept pestering him at the beginning, and it was not what Haruwaka Ayano thought, who did these things for training results.

“Of course I can help you, but I hope you don’t ask me to help you just for the training results. Let’s get along for a while first. When you like me as much as Saki does, then consider using special methods to improve your results.”

It’s not that he would refuse the meat that was right in front of him, he just wanted to keep eating it, so naturally he couldn’t do that kind of thing just for profit.

So far, those who have an intimate relationship with him basically have feelings for him. Even if the feelings are not deep at present, they will develop feelings over time.

But if Haruwaka Ayano just wants to improve her grades, then after they improve he can no longer ask Haruwaka Ayano to like him.

However, Haruwaka Ayano felt even more sad when she heard Hikigaya Hachiman’s words of disdain for her.

That’s right, in her opinion, Hikigaya Hachiman obviously rejected her because he didn’t like her, otherwise why would he reject her with the reason that she didn’t like him?

Obviously, Hayase-senpai has a childhood sweetheart, and obviously Hikigaya-kun and Hayase-senpai are not lovers, and obviously she can be with Hayase-senpai… but now she is required to like Hikigaya-kun…

Even though she didn’t have the intention to use this method to improve her grades, she was still very sad. Could she really be completely unattractive?

“Bang!”

“Oh! Why are you dithering? It’s just to give her some life energy, why are you talking so much nonsense!”

The door to the locker room was kicked open, and Ursula appeared at the door.

Ursula, who was also wearing an extremely tight swimsuit that outlined her body curves, looked at Hikigaya Hachiman and Haruwaka Ayano who were a little stunned in the locker room, and smiled proudly.

“Don’t worry, if this guy doesn’t help you, I will! I promise to drain his energy and make your grades improve faster than that Hayase guy!”

“However, if you can’t bear so much energy, then I will find someone else, hehe~”

Originally, she wanted to find some local subhumans, but when she knew that Hikigaya Hachiman and the others had come to the women’s swimming club, she suddenly had a new idea.

There are so many people in the women’s swimming club, even if they are basically ordinary people, they are all very strong. Although Hikigaya Hachiman’s life energy is rich, it is limited. He must not be able to recover so quickly! Now Hikigaya Hachiman will have to beg for mercy from her!
