The Self-Proclaimed “Normal” Guy of The S-Class Academy

>　I had just stated the truth, but Gozen’s eyes widened.

“Insulation?　Why? What’s wrong with such a beautiful girl?”

“No matter how good she looks, she’s still a piece of s**t on the inside.
She has been subjected to repeated moral harassment and power harassment.
I was told to stay in the shadows and not to stand out.
I was brainwashed by her for a long time.
I’m fed up with it.”

　Gozen tapped his fingers on the desk.

“There has to be some reward for that.
If you become Rua’s groom, you will inherit my immense power and wealth – all of the Teikai Group.”

“…………”

“You have been Rua’s favorite since you were a child.
My granddaughter, who never opens her heart to strangers, would not leave you.
That is why I have considered you as one of the candidates to become my son-in-law, and I have given you various imperial teachings.”

“I understand that.”

　I have been trained in ancient martial arts and military arts that are not appropriate for a child.

　Well, it was quite fun to learn them.
I think I was allowed to experience things that normal children can’t, free of charge.

　But…

“I was happy to be more normal.
I want to make normal friends, have normal girlfriends, and live a normal high school life.
A normal life where power harassment and moral harassment don’t exist.”

“Normal, you?”

　Gozen laughed deep in his throat.

“You, with your extraordinary intelligence and military prowess, are normal?　That’s impossible.
I heard that you also crushed the badge system.”

“Yes.
It was in my way.”

“That was a social experiment.
If the results were good, I was planning to implement it in the entire Teikai Group.”

　So that was the plan after all.

“I’m going to enjoy a normal high school life.
I’d appreciate it if you don’t interfere.”

Are you seriously going to part ways with Rua?　Here at Teikai Academy.”

“As long as I’m paying tuition, I have the right to be a normal student.”

“I told you I would give it to you for free, but your mother wouldn’t listen to me.”

　Our family’s life is not affluent, and yet my mother refused this offer.
She firmly refused, saying, “I can’t accept such a favor just because he is your granddaughter’s friend”.

　I am proud of her.

“All right.
Fine.”

　Gozen nodded, glaring at me.

” I’ll keep an eye on things for a while, but I don’t know what Rua will do.”

“I’ll be counting on you.”

　That’s enough for today.

“I have one thing to say.
Because of Rua, the performance of the drama club is about to be interrupted.
This action is detrimental to the school.
As the director, I would like you to fulfill your responsibility.”

“Fumu.
I will take care of that.”

Alright.
This almost accomplished the purpose of the meeting.

“What are you going to do now?”

“I told you.
I will insulate myself from Rua and lead a normal high school life.
First, I want to enjoy the summer vacation that lies ahead of me.”

　Gozen laughed.
It was a somewhat ghostly smile.

“Even if you think you’re normal, people around you won’t leave you alone.
Especially the female girly-girls.”

“I don’t care about the people around me.
I’m just going to live my life the way I want to.
That’s why…”

　Finally.

　This much can be forgiven.

“If you touch any of the girls, I’ll crush you.
Old man.”
