With heavy feet I approached Komi who was talking to Najimi.
Seeing my current state she got up very worried.
She quickly took out her kitty notebook and wrote.
Komi: "Tadano-Kun, are you okay?"
For a moment I stopped and raised my eyebrow at the change from San to Kun, it seems like she has gained some confidence.
However I threw all these thoughts aside, I was too irritated to care about something like that right now.
I could only think of Komi to calm my turbulent emotions.
I seem to have a bit of the "Control Freak" in me.
I thought to myself as I was finally face to face with Komi who had extended her trembling hands towards me trying to support me, she had panicked, if her hands weren't enough of a sign her chaotic aura was more than enough. obvious to me. Ordinary people only see Komi-San's stoic expression but thanks to my [Ambience Reading] skill, I can understand her emotions easily.
Tadano: "I'm sorry about this Komi," I said before wrapping my arms around her in a tight hug.
Komi: "…!!!"
Najimi: "…!!!"
All: "!!!"
Holding Komi-San's body in my arms I could feel true ecstasy.
It was soft and fluffy.
She smelled good too.
It was sweet and somewhat addictive.
We continued our hug for a couple of minutes until the uncomfortable feeling in my heart disappeared.
Then I let go of her without saying a word and sat back in my seat as if the previous act had never happened.
With a calm and imperturbable voice I said.
Tadano: "Well, what were you talking about with Najimi, tell me quickly, I'm curious."
Komi: "…"
All: "…"
I could feel murderous glances directed towards me.
I'm pretty sure 90% if not the entire class hates my guts right now.
I, a mere mortal, had dared to not only touch, but even embrace his goddess in front of everyone and without any shame.
At this point I didn't care in the slightest.
Any fool who dared to mess with me would be shot down just like the bully that time.
Komi was the one who recovered the fastest and she decided to humor me.
Komi: "Najimi-San was telling me about other possible candidates to become my friends, she was even kind enough to bring me the complete information about her, I was thinking that maybe Inaka-San would be a good option."
Tadano: "I see, she is a very good choice. But before you make your move on her I have some good news for you." I said as she smiled warmly at him.
Komi: "Good news? What could it be?" asked a curious Komi-San.
Tadano: "Agari-San has agreed to listen to what you have to say and she apologizes for having been avoiding you all this time. This is a good opportunity for you, right? You can talk to her about how you share a somewhat similar disorder and maybe make her your friend." I told him while waiting for the appearance of that cute being.
*Puff*
KomiCat had made her appearance again, this filled my heart with joy and calmed my emotions in chaos.
Hmph! The cuteness she was witnessing should be the cultural heritage of humanity. Only beauty calms a turbulent heart.
I had to stop myself from wanting to jump on Komi-San and shower her with my hugs and cuddles.
An excited Komi showed me her notebook, almost pressing it to my face in her excitement.
Komi: "Is that true? Does she really want to meet with me?"
Tadano: "That's right. Now because we don't wait a little, she can come back at any time."
I told.
I was sure that Agari would return, even if I didn't like her at all. Now she was my loyal dog, so she would comply with my wishes.
So it was.
After half an hour, we saw her timidly enter through the door.
In this half hour Komi-San had been gathering her courage and practicing with me playing the role of Agari's substitute. Heck I even pulled a green wig out of my space ring.
Please don't ask me how I have that. A man must be prepared for all kinds of situations and if you have more doubts, I can only tell you "A magician did it",
When both girls were face to face, a solemn atmosphere filled the classroom.
Komi: "Hello Agari-San, it's nice to meet you. My name is Komi Shouko" Komi introduced himself through her notebook.
Agari trembled for a moment but following the advice of her master, she took her time after a sigh and spoke.
Agari: "Nice to meet you too Komi-San, my name is Agari Himiko. "Tadano-Kun told me about you and made me realize that I was misunderstanding you" Said Agari who had both hands clasped in front of his chest while he tried to keep composure as much as he could, which was admirable since the previous times he was able to remain calm was because he was under the influence of my ability, but now he was achieving it on his own.
Hearing Agari-San's words, Komi-san gave me a look.
Agari: "The truth is that you scared me a lot Komi-San, when you started following me out of nowhere I panicked and I thought you would do something bad to me. But Tadano-Kun clarified that it is because of the problem that afflicts you. So before you tell me anything else. Can I ask you a question?" said a somewhat trembling Agari.
Komi-San nodded.
Agari took a breath again and said.
Agari: "Komi-San, do you have problems communicating with others?"
Komi: "Yes… I also heard that you suffer from a similar problem. That's right?". Asked.
Agari trembled a little but continued.
Agari: "It's true... since I was little I suffered a lot of ridicule for my appearance and shy attitude. This made it even more difficult for me to relate to people, now every time they look at me, the anxiety in my heart becomes so serious that I It causes physical pain. Making me even more shy and withdrawn than before. But... if you're okay with a person like that around you. "Then, I'd like to be your friend..." He said the last part. Almost in a whisper but Komi-San managed to hear it.
I quickly took out the notebook from her and with eyes shining like stars
Komi: "Are you sure? Do you really want to be my friend? I asked impatiently for the answer.
Agari: "Of course we share a similar situation, maybe together you can put our problem aside"
Komi became even happier after hearing her words and quickly wrote.
Komi: "Then please take care of me from now on Agari-San" she said as she bowed a little.
Agari: "N-it's not necessary to bow like that Komi-San, in any case the one who should bow should be me. If it weren't for you and Tadano-Kun I wouldn't have been able to do better on my own, I really appreciate it."
Both girls were too embarrassed to try to take the next step.
Sighing with impatience I spoke.
Tadano: "How about you give each other a hug to show your new friendship?"
Komi hesitated for a second but she decided to do it, wrapping her arms around Agari. Only for her to hug him back.
After a couple of minutes they separated and both smiled at each other.
Then they sat down and began to chat.
If you ask about Najimi. She disappeared to fulfill her exhausting schedule upon seeing her watch.
Returning to the girls, they both agreed to go home together.
Things were heading in the right direction so I decided not to interfere.
Likewise, I didn't want to interact much with Agari, she is dangerous to me in many ways.
However, I can't deny that she is very pretty.
!!
No! get back! I won't do anything to her!
While I was lost in my thoughts my gaze met hers.
Then she smiled at me and gave me an "Okay" gesture while Komi-San wasn't paying attention.
As expected of my loyal dog, always complying with my wishes.
She could swear she saw a dog's tail behind her wagging wildly.
Her face seemed to express the desire to be praised by her master.
I could only look at her and smile kindly at her as she gave him a thumbs up.
My action excited her so much that it was almost discovered by Komi-San.
After this event the classes continued normally, only now Agari seemed more calm and serious instead of hers I was shy and clumsy.
At the end of classes, 3 girls, or rather, 2 girls and a teenager of questionable gender, met to go together on the way home.
Ah Najimi was not surprised by the addition of Agari, she had already found out everything.
The 3 of them started chatting with each other, it was a very nice scene. Unfortunately I couldn't join them.
I had something else to do.
It was time.
I had to get a lot of Ikemen points, if I wanted to be able to decide my own path without being influenced.
While the girls were chatting before. I looked at the ability that Lady Luck had given me to control the influence of the System on me.
*Ding*

*Error*

*Ding*
"Statistics required for skill activation, a minimum of 10 full points in each of the stats."
When I finished processing all this information my feelings were complex.
Partly I was happy that I would get the way to avoid the influence of the system. But on the other hand I was heartbroken by the enormous amount of Ikemen points I would need to improve my stats up to 10.
Therefore, after long deliberation, I decided to go and try to charm every lady I meet to get the points I need. I had already obtained a good amount of skills for this, and if necessary i would purchase the ones i needed. To avoid being recognized, I decided to wear the same green wig as before and change my appearance slightly so I would avoid problems or inconveniences with people close to me.
This is how my journey to get Ikemen points began.
