Chapter 65 - First night at the inn

(Nagisa's pov)

Thanks to the guide that Koro-sensei made for us, we could find kidnappers' hideout. It was an abandoned building not so far from where they attacked us. They didn't run away far because, just like us, they were on a trip, and since they didn't know the area that well, they used a place nearby to hide. Everything was clearly explained in the guidebook. There was even included a map.

Two people were stocked to the walls with a strange substance outside the building. Their mouths were closed by the same material that hugged them to walls. They couldn't scream or even say anything, but I could see fear in their eyes.

Karma looked at both of them with some curiosity, picked up a nearby stick, and poked one of them a few times.

Karma: "Seems like someone was here before us, and I hope it's Ryoto because if it's not him, the girls may be in danger."

He is right.

Nagisa: "We need to hurry then!"

Karma: "Wait."

Karma stopped me.

Karma: "If it's not Ryoto, then we need to be careful."

Nagisa: "If it's not Ryoto, then we should hurry all the more!"

Koro-sensei: "Karma would be right in that case if I wasn't here."

All four of us turned around to see our teacher. He was holding a camera. Why though?

Koro-sensei: "You also don't need to worry about Kayano-San and Kanzaki-San. They are safe."

Karma: "Was it Ryoto?"

Koro-sensei: "Yes."

I breathed out the air that I didn't even know I was holding. It's good. Koro-sensei looks calm, so he at least didn't kill them. In the alley, his eyes were scary. He was clearly angry but was in complete control. I felt like a small animal in front of the tiger. It was his killing intent.

Nagisa: "What is this?"

Finally, I did not need to worry about my classmates so I could let my curiosity get better of me.

Karma: "Yeah, it looks like a spider web."

Koro-sensei: "To be honest, your sensei doesn't know either. It's the first time I'm seeing this as well. Yuuki-kun just doesn't stop surprising me, nurufufufu."

Nagisa: "What do you mean by that?"

Koro-sensei: "I can't say anything without Yuuki-kun's approval but let's just say that not everything is as it seems."

He put his tentacle on my head.

Karma: "So Koro-sensei, what kind of photo did you make with this camera of yours?"

Koro-sensei: "I'm glad that you asked. I saw something amazing."

Koro-sensei tried to turn on the camera, but it didn't work.

Koro-sensei: "Huh?"

Nagisa: "Let me see it."

Koro-sensei gave me the camera, and I immediately noticed that a small amount of water was coming out of the device.

Nagisa: "It's broken."

Koro-sensei: "What!!? I just bought it!!!"

Nagisa: "The camera has water inside."

Koro-sensei had a face of realization.

Koro-sensei: "I see, so that's how it is."

Karma: "Hmm."

Karma was clearly thinking about something.

Inside the building, we were following a web-upped people, and in the end, we found Yuuki-kun, Kayano, and Kanzaki-San. Three unconscious high schoolers that attacked us before, hanging from the ceiling, were not far away from them.

Karma: "What happened to them?"

Ryoto: "I happened."

(Ryoto's pov)

After the boys, Manami and Koro-sensei, walked in, they had some questions, but thankfully they didn't push for answers.

We returned to the inn we were staying at during our trip. We met all of our classmates there. It was already evening, so we changed into yukatas and played around for a while. Most boys played ping pong, and even Karasuma joined in after the invitation.

Most of my classmates regretted this decision as a simple game of ping pong changed into a warzone. Let's just say that Karasuma nor I know when to give up. We destroyed not only the ball but also a board in the process. Karasuma was forced to pay for it. What's worse, the game stopped at a tie. 15-15 was the final score, and I wasn't happy about it. The people in the same hallway were as they were scared for their lives when we started playing seriously.

There was even one victim. Terasaka was hit by one of the balls, and he fainted. It may or may not be on purpose. Do I still hold a grudge? No, but I'm still a bit salty that he hit my wrong buttons, so I'm going to annoy him as long as I can.

After the very exciting game of ping pong, Rio wanted to peep on Koro-sensei to know what he hides under his clothes. She invited me as well, but I declined. Instead, I climbed on the roof of the inn. I was lying on my back with my arms behind my head. I was looking at the stars. They were the same here as they were at home... is what I would say if I knew what I'm saying. I don't see the difference. I don't know enough about astronomy to say something like that. The moon, on the other hand, is different. 70% of it was destroyed by Koro-sensei.

Now into the main topic. What should I do about my feelings? I obviously love Lala. I should probably tell her that more often. But now, I started caring about Kaede and Rio. It just happened.

It wasn't even at first sight or anything like that, but these feelings slowly crept into my heart during the last two months. Was it because they didn't leave me alone even if the air around me said leave me alone. Maybe it was just their personality or something else. I know it wasn't boobs in the case of Kaede, though. That I knew for sure.

I chuckled at my own joke, but I would never say it out loud to her. I like my balls where they are, thank you. This is especially true right now with how unstable she could be.

Of course, Lala is in the first place. She is literally irreplaceable for me, but I'm starting to like Rio and Kaede as well. Does it make me a scumbag? Maybe, but at least I'm not one in Tokyo.

Ok, enough of the jokes. The question is, what should I do. After all, I'm going to leave this world.

'Karen, any advice?'
