Escape Galge Chapter 10

Kii isn’t the only one who wants to escape… XD Plot-wise, nothing much new this chapter. However, we finally get to see Aoi’s POV next chapter!
===================

Kōryaku Taishō-sha na Watas.h.i.+ wa Gyarugē Shujinkō kara Nigetai wake de!

　Towards I, who made a resolution to the degree of going against the entire student population, G.o.d-sama mercilessly presents trials after trials.

"Kii!"

　Why is he so unrelenting, I wonder.

　This stickiness is at a level where it'll shock even a natto yuru-chara[1].

『That girl is ignoring Kagurazaka-senpai again.』

　The girls' chilly stares chase after me.

　The world is unreasonable.

　As I move while looking for a place to hide, a hand stretches out from a cla.s.sroom I pa.s.s by and pulls my arm.

"!? Let go! … Ah."

　What's going on!? I panicked, but the one who pulled me wasn't gross-man but he, the supreme background character.

"Kii-chan!"

"This way!"

　I enter the cla.s.sroom with my arm still being pulled. It's the first-years' cla.s.sroom.

　Apparently the committee Ei-kun is in had a meeting.

"I saw Kagurazaka-senpai looking for you just now, so I wondered if you were fleeing."

　For a cla.s.smate whom I'm not on particularly close terms with to figure out the situation… it sure hurts my stomach.

　Somehow, looking at Ei-kun's face makes me feel relieved.

"Kii-chan!"

　My thoughts were about to sink in the sea of defeat but having my hands suddenly grasped brought my consciousness back.

　Eh? What's happening?

"All of us guys believe Kii-chan! We believe that Kii-chan will be the last fortress! The guys are all Kii-chan's allies!"

Please don’t repost.

　I don't quite get it, but he appears to have some kind of expectation.

　As for『all the guys being my allies』, while I'm grateful, it seems like it'll provoke the girls' enmity so I'd rather not.

"A-also… I promised not to steal a march but… I…!"

　Although I completely don't understand what's going on, Ei-kun's growing increasingly pa.s.sionate.

"Ah, sorry."

　Ei-kun lets go in a panic.

　I wonder what's up.
　I feel bad for doing this when he's getting fired up, but I cannot remain all laidback here.

"Sorry, I'll be going, okay. Thanks!"

　As I open the door and step forward… I slam into something in front. … It's a person.

"Kii."
"YIKESS!!!"

　I'll likely be dead if it really is a horror game.

　I return to the cla.s.sroom in a panic and hide behind Ei-kun.
　Erohim Essaim![2]

"You are…"

　When I peek out as I hide behind the s.h.i.+eld that is Ei-kun, I saw that he has a grim expression on.

　It's quite intense when such an expression is made with a well-chiselled face.

　Don't lose, Ei-kun!

"Ki-kii-chan does not like it! Please do not chase her around!"

"Uu."

　The representative of all background characters, Ei-kun, throws in the towel with a single word from the gross-man.

　A background character cannot possibly contend.

　They're so powerful that these days, things like『background characters who are protagonists』exist.
　I, too, prefer background characters!

　Even now, Ei-kun appears like he's going to run away.

　No, I won't let you escape!

　I appeal with my eyes.

　『To me, you are the true 'last fortress'! Save me!"』

"!?"

　Perhaps my feelings got through; Ei-kun's face reddens and he preps himself, drawing close to that guy.

"I-I don't want to! Kii-chan is relying on me!"

　… He's doing his best! What a nice person!

　Ahh, my heart hurts somewhat!

"Such a plain… guy like the previous me…"

　The sc.u.m's muttering about something.

　The furrow between his brows deepen and the glint in his eyes grows sharper.
　I can almost see a black aura.

"Ei-kun, sorry!"

Please don’t repost.

　Seeing a good opportunity, I dash out and escape from the door on the opposite side.

　Ei-kun, it's regrettable losing you…

　… Let's apologise next time.
　I'll get sweets and whatnot for you, okay…
