Due to the fact that her lust was comparable to that of Issei, Matsuda, and Motohama combined, I have no doubt that she would be the easiest person to seduce. The knowing glance she gave me along with her smirk let me know she was pleased.
Matsuda and Motohama arrived just a few minutes after those three people did, and by the time they did, I nearly felt sorry for them.
As the males began to leer at the women openly, the girls gave them a look that conveyed their distaste, and I let out a disappointed shake of my head.
If Issei had been able to better control his lust, he would have been able to have every girl in this room eating out of the palm of his hand.
His only flaw was that he made his lust and perverseness obvious to everyone around him.
"Yo! Issei!" Matsuda yelled something, and I turned my head to look at him and Motohama, who were now coming closer to me.
I noticed that the girls were now frowning at me in disappointment because I was still friends with the two of them but I won't be their friend for too much longer.
I realised that they were doing this because I was still their friend but I won't be their friend for too much longer.
You can accuse me of being harsh all you want, but Issei Hyoudou was friends with Motohama and Matsuda, not with me.
They received a nod from me. I replied with as much disinterest as I could muster, "Good morning to you Matsuda, Motohama," and I was almost surprised when the two of them began to look at me with narrowed eyes. "Good morning to you Matsuda, Motohama," I said again.
"What kind of treatment have you given your hair?"
"And what the heck is up with that lukewarm greeting?"
I shrugged my shoulders and ran my hand through my hair before doing so. "Regarding my hair, I believe that I needed to change it being as how I want to change the way people here perceive me, so you can say that I am using it to advertise that I will be changing that perception. Regarding my welcome, I don't want to sound too cheery first thing in the morning because I find it distracting." Before I looked at either of the questions, I responded to both of them with the same tone of voice.
Because they were the ones who had heard me, it was not surprising that they appeared to be astonished by my revelation. I did not want for the whole class to overhear what I was saying, but neither was I speaking in a whisper. In all honesty, I was just speaking normally.
"Would you two mind if I asked you a favour?"
It seems that this did the trick in terms of bringing them out of their state of shock, and Motohama adjusted his glasses while he shakily shook his head in agreement. "Erm, okay, absolutely. What did you need?"
As I glanced at the two students at Kuoh Academy who were the most outspoken about their sexual orientation, I sat back in my chair with my arms crossed over my chest.
"Despite the fact that he was married to my mother, my father was unable to control his lust when he was around other women, which led to their divorce. You probably already know this. My room is still filled with sexually explicit items, and I can't help but feel that it's a constant reminder of what my father did to my mother. My expectation was that both of you would be willing to take them from my custody and keep them safe. I don't want my mother to go through any more pain than she already has, and I'm going to do all in my power to make sure that doesn't happen."

Lie successful!
The number of liars has increased by one!

I ignored the message box in my head, and I almost laughed out loud when I saw the startled expressions on Motohama's and Matsuda's faces, as well as the faces of those who had been listening in on my talk.
As soon as the girls discovered that I was willing to give up something that I enjoyed for the benefit of my mother, I could see that my reputation among them was beginning to improve.
That had been my objective from the very beginning.
The majority of the females, including Katase and Murayama, were already staring at me in a different way, and I couldn't help but see the hearts on Aika's eyes. Never mind.
//
Unsavory motivation uncovered! right in front of your eyes!

Matsuda immediately grabbed me by the scruff of my neck as soon as the box appeared in front of my face. As he held me up, he gave me a menacing expression while staring right into my eyes, and I noticed that Motohama was doing the same thing.
"Who are you, and what have you been doing with Issei?!" He came very close to mockingly growling at me in that moment.
Motohama indicated his assent with a nod. "Yeah! The Issei that I am familiar with would never give up his priceless collection of ecchi! The question remains, who are you and what have you done with our beloved Issei?" He continued to ask in the same menacing manner.
I narrowed my eyes down at them, and I was sure that it surprised the others that I wasn't becoming angry at them for being idiots because I know that is how Issei Hyoudou would have reacted.
I said this because I know that is how Issei Hyoudou would have reacted. Instead, I started to channel mana into my body in order to empower myself because what I was going to accomplish required more strength than I possessed at the time.
I was confident that Matsuda was more physically capable than I was due to the fact that he used to participate in sports; therefore, I required an advantage in this situation.
After I had begun to channel mana into my body, I was pleasantly startled to see a message box emerge on the screen a split second later.
