Chapter 49 - The Most Familiar Stranger?

"I more or less understand."

Yukino nodded, having an initial grasp of Megumi's situation.

"Kato-san, is such a life very troublesome?"

Eriri couldn't imagine at all what it would be like to have such a low level of presence.

As the only daughter of the Sawamura family, Eriri had been the center of attention for everyone around her since birth. Coupled with her status as a beautiful biracial girl, she always became the center of a crowd wherever she went.

Eriri had even thought once, how nice it would be if she were more ordinary, not so noticed by people, so she could be herself casually, without having to constantly pretend to be a young lady for the sake of the Sawamura family's reputation.

But after hearing Megumi's experience, Eriri realized that a level of presence that was too low was not a good thing.

"It's not really troublesome, it's just a little bothersome sometimes."

"Then, for what reason does Kato-san want to change? Is it because you met a man you like?"

As soon as the fun-loving Utaha spoke, the atmosphere in the Service Club instantly changed.

Eriri also realized that day Megumi had also prepared a bento for Shinnosuke, and it was a homemade bento, praised by Shinnosuke as very thoughtful.

Girls don't prepare bentos for boys for no reason!

Yukino observed Megumi from top to bottom, then glared sharply at Shinnosuke.

'You're even setting your sights on a girl as expressionless as this?'

And from Megumi's desire to actively change, it was clear that the conquest progress was already very high!

Nohara Shinnosuke, truly a terrifying man!

Yukino once again strengthened her resolve, she definitely must not be conquered by Shinnosuke! She also had to correct his personality!

But now, whose conquest progress was higher, Megumi's or Yukino's? Perhaps only they themselves knew.

"Not really, I just want to change myself. If things continue like this, how will I find a job later? Getting married and having children might also be difficult."

Megumi glanced at Shinnosuke, showing a slightly worried expression.

Apart from Shinnosuke, no other boy paid attention to her. It was natural for an 18-year-old girl to feel worried about this.

Eriri, who was initially wary, unconsciously felt a little sympathy after hearing Megumi's words. In other words, only Shinnosuke could notice her? In that case, it was no wonder Megumi cared so much about Shinnosuke.

Utaha showed a meaningful expression.

This club is really interesting. Besides herself, the other three beautiful girls paid too much attention to Shinnosuke. What charm did this man possess? Could love really be blind?

It seemed the concept of her novel's story was too conservative. Reality was often crazier than the plot of light novels!

She had to drastically revise her novel's plot when she got home later. She was confident that her novel would soon be finished with the first volume!

For a creator, the most feared thing was having no inspiration. Before this, although Utaha had always had ideas for writing light novels, she had never actually written because of a lack of sufficient inspiration.

Utaha was very confident in her writing ability, but just having writing ability without the ability to create stories would certainly not work.

Utaha also wanted to write pure love, but she herself had never been in a relationship. Relying solely on her imagination, how many volumes could she write? Most likely only two or three volumes before it was discontinued by the publisher.

But now it was different, as long as she was in the Service Club, she would have unlimited inspiration!

For the sake of her work, she had to stay in the Service Club no matter what! She must not be affected by the Shuraba!

"Don't worry too much, we will definitely help you."

Yukino's heart was overjoyed, wasn't this a serious request?

What was correcting Shinnosuke's personality, and helping Tomoya make a game? Such requests were completely unreliable! And they were all recommended by Hiratsuka.

Did Hiratsuka really consider her a request machine?

A request like Megumi's was more meaningful, challenging, and satisfying.

"Kato-san's request cannot be resolved in a short time. How about we do our usual club activities first, while observing and looking for a way?"

Regarding Megumi's situation, Yukino had some initial guesses. She believed it was most likely because Megumi's personality was too gentle and expressionless, which made her already low level of presence even lower.

But changing someone's personality was not an easy task. Yukino had to observe more to provide a better solution.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry either."

Megumi showed a faint smile, it seemed she really didn't care too much about this matter.

"Kato-san, you're too gentle!"

Megumi's calmness made Eriri a little envious. Since she was a child, she couldn't hide her feelings. If she could be like Megumi, what was there to be afraid of Suotome Ai?

"Yukinoshita-san, when there are no requests, what are our club activities? And do we have any other requests at the moment?"

"When there are no requests, everyone can manage their own time. Since the club was just established, besides Kato-san's request, we haven't received any other requests for the time being."

Yukino hesitated for only a moment, then hid the fact that Hiratsuka had asked her to correct Shinnosuke's personality. In her heart, this was a rather personal matter, and also a secret between her and Shinnosuke.

After all, Eriri and Megumi clearly liked Shinnosuke. They weren't close enough yet. After going to great lengths to gather five people, Yukino didn't want any more trouble in the club.

At least from now on, these three seniors were very easy to get along with.

However, soon after, Yukino regretted it a little. After everyone started their free activities, Utaha also took out a book and read it, Megumi took out her phone and looked at it.

Eriri unhesitatingly moved closer to Shinnosuke's side, making Yukino's eyes twitch.

What was with this young lady from the Sawamura family? Her whole body was almost glued to Shinnosuke! Their relationship was a bit too close.

And Yukino also realized that Shinnosuke and Eriri's relationship was very strange. They both seemed very familiar with each other, but when they spoke and interacted, there was a slight sense of unfamiliarity.

They were definitely not a couple. Yukino, who had never kept pets and didn't understand letter circles, couldn't find an adjective to describe their relationship.

The most familiar stranger? Could it be that Shinnosuke and Eriri had dated before, and then broke up?

Yukino decided that she would ask Shinnosuke nicely when she got home later, asking him to honestly tell her about their relationship.
