“We'll be going insect hunting later right? When we do, I was thinking of suspending you in the air with a rope and having you go further above us”
Koutarou drew a simple figure on the back of a newspaper. It was an image of Maki being lifted into the air using a pulley and rope.
“Like that, you'll be in charge of the top. If you're 43 kilos, using a pulley and rope that can handle 50 kilos shouldn't be a problem”
“I understand, but... Satomi-kun, is this supposed to be me?”
“Yeah”
“Fufufu, I'm not this cute you know?”
Maki had been perplexed at first, but after Koutarou explained the circumstances, she returned to her normal expression. As a result, she didn't seem as gloomy as she had been just a moment ago.
Aika-san...
And that actually caused Koutarou pain. If this was enough to help her get back to her normal state, just how worried and lonely was this girl feeling? Thinking like that, Koutarou had to put in a lot of effort to keep his smile from disappearing.
“You know, you can tell me that I suck at drawing”
“You suck”
“Shut it”
“Geez... you're the one who said I could say it. And besides, Satomi-kun, I can use magic so something like this isn't necessary”
“You idiot”
Koutarou smacked Maki's forehead.
“Ouch?!”
Maki let out a cry of pain and held her forehead. But in contrast to her cry and mannerism, her eyes seemed quite happy.
“Using magic during the insect hunting is forbidden”
“Why? It will be more convenient that way. Ah, I won't charge you”
“That's not the problem”
“... Then what is it?”
“Insect hunting only has a meaning when it is done using a child's intelligence and courage”
“A child's... I understand. Fufufu, a child... ufufufu”
Maki slightly narrowed her eyes and cheerfully giggled. Seeing her like that, Koutarou was finally able to relax.
This girl really needs to find happiness...
Seeing Maki finally regain her smile, made Koutarou feel that way.
But Aika-san isn't the only one that needs to find happiness...
Alongside Maki's were eight other smiles. Koutarou had only realized their value very recently.
But behind those smiles lied all kinds of circumstances. And every time those circumstances came to the surface, the smiles would vanish. Koutarou hated that, because every single one of those girls had a score over 300 points.
Although that's a problem I should have noticed by now...
Koutarou had a reason to stake his life to protect any of the nine girls. He could probably die for any one of them. That's what it meant by them having a score above 300. That's why Koutarou wanted to let them find happiness, regardless of what shape that happiness was. That's just how much they had done for him. He didn't mind if he found his happiness last.
Landlord-san?
Looking at each of the girls in turn, Koutarou's eyes met with Shizuka's, the last girl. She was looking back at him as well. As she glimpsed at Maki for a brief moment, she gently narrowed her eyes. That gesture was enough for Koutarou to understand what she was thinking.
Yeah. We can't have anyone become unhappy...
Right now, Shizuka just happened to be sympathizing with Maki, but this wasn't something limited to just the two of them. All of the girls would pay attention to each other, and Koutarou firmly believed that people like that should never feel unhappy.
It was at that moment–
“Koutarou, Koutarou, this is terrible!!”
Sanae's face filled Koutarou's view. Seeing her serious expression, Koutarou's face turned pale.
“What's wrong?!”
“Yurika died again!!”
“What?!”
Since Koutarou had been seriously worrying about the girls, he thought that Yurika had actually died for a moment. But that soon turned out to be a misunderstanding.
“Uuuuhhh, I... I...!!”
The Yurika in question was crouching down in front of the TV and bitterly crying. She was continuously hitting the floor.
“I hate gameeess!!”
The reason was obvious. Yurika's adventure had ended in a grand failure.
