Yes, Ishigami heard the girl sobbing, but he ignored it, considering the dangers that he might encounter. Yet, just as he was about to ignore the girl and wait in a different spot to wait for Chika—
"Are you fine?"
In the end, he decided to help since he had to say this girl's way of crying was so pathetic.
'Even though she is beautiful...'
Yes, this girl was beautiful; not only did she have well-defined features with brown hair that she tied in braids, but somehow, she just lay on the ground as she cried out of her soul, ignoring the fact that Ishigami could see her smooth, plump thighs that were shown excessively from her uniform skirt as she moved her legs wildly as she cried.
Pathetic yet beautiful.
This was his first time seeing such a combination, and he felt conflicted somehow.
"T-Thank you..."
The girl was startled since she didn't expect someone to see her, but more importantly, she was embarrassed since she had cried like that.
Yet, when she saw the person who discovered her, she became even more surprised. "Huh?! You are that lewd junior!"
"...what do you mean by a lewd junior?" Ishigami was speechless and said, "I am worried about you, so I ask, but since you are okay, then I will go now." He was just worried before, but since this girl was alright and she even said that he was a lewd junior, then there was no need to worry.
Yet, when he thought that he could go on his way—
"Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait a moment! Please help me!"
"...help you?"
---
"....."
Ishigami wondered what was happening since, at this moment, he sat on the side of the girl that he didn't know behind the bushes and among the trees so no one would see them.
This was a good thing, he thought, especially when he didn't want to be misunderstood, and this was probably the reason why this girl invited him to sit in this place since she knew that he had a girlfriend, and—
'This girl should have someone that she likes.'
Yet, what kind of a boy couldn't she get, he thought.
The girl was cute and beautiful, which was about the same level as Kaguya, yet unlike Kaguya, which was all flat with just two pointy pinkies that gave her a hint of feminity, this girl might not be as developed as Tsubame or Chika, yet even so, she was impressive, especially when her overall balance.
Thighs, waist, and breasts.
All of them were perfectly in line, showing her charm that she didn't lose to anyone.
However, when he saw her crying like a child bawling to her parents to buy her a toy... somehow, such a naughty desire couldn't be born in his heart.
'Stop thinking about that kind of a pervy thing, okay?'
Ishigami sighed inwardly, thinking that the problem he encountered hadn't ended and all the women he was with hadn't decided. More importantly, how could he start to get close to another girl right after that bold declaration yesterday?
At the same time, he could tell that this girl had such a sincere wish, so would he betray her with his dirty thoughts?
Still, he sighed inwardly that he really had changed since previously. He still had a bottom limit and wouldn't even touch anyone, yet the more he learned the pleasure that came from a carnal desire, the harder it was for him not to be attracted to this desire.
"Are you fine, Senpai? Please use this."
Even after she brought Ishigami, she continued to sob before her attention turned to him when he offered her a tissue pocket. Yes, he had learned and wouldn't give his handkerchief to someone that he didn't know, especially after his experience with Iino.
What did Iino do after she got his handkerchief?
While he wasn't sure, he knew well that the wetness on her sofa in her house was enough to make him careful when he lent his handkerchief to someone, even if that someone was a beautiful girl.
"Thank you. I will repay you later, Ishigami-kun."
"It's fine, but how did you know my name, Senpai?" While Ishigami was curious, the girl was speechless and said, "You are a pretty famous figure, you know? The gigolo of Shuchi'in Academy, that's your nickname."
"....." Ishigami.
"I was joking. I gave you that nickname after I remembered how you could kiss your girlfriend even though it hadn't been a while for you to be together."
Somehow, the crying girl showed a bright smile after she saw Ishigami's speechless expression.
Still, there was a reason why Ishigami had a lot of women. "Then, I am glad my nickname can make you smile again, Senpai."
"...'"
The girl felt her face was hot, especially when she saw his gentle smile, which she subconsciously patted on his shoulder and said, "You have a girlfriend. Don't seduce me."
"If I don't, then I can seduce you?"
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Even if she didn't have a mirror, she was sure that her face was so red at that moment and her heart was beating so fast, especially when they were so close like this.
"I was joking." Ishigami quickly stopped since he was afraid something would really happen between them. "By the way, I don't know your name, Senpai."
"Maki Shijo. That's my name. Remember it well." Maki introduced herself proudly as if trying to show her prestige as a senior, especially after he teased her. "Also, you have a girlfriend, so don't carelessly say something like that to another girl!" As she said so, she pulled his cheek slightly as if trying to admonish him.
Feeling the softness of her fingers on his cheek, Ishigami didn't get angry, but he just pretended that he was hurt. "Ow! Ow! Ow! It hurts, Senpai!"
"Don't pretend!" Even so, Maki let go of her fingers and traced his cheek carefully as if she was afraid to hurt him, yet her face was as cold as ever. "Moreover, you are a boy; how can you cry so easily like that?"
"Well, it hurts."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Which one hurts?"
"My cheek."
"Is it?"
As she said so, she continued to caress him, hoping to ease his pain, which made Ishigami remain in silence, wondering how one could be so smart yet also gullible at the same time.
Maki Shijo.
The moment he heard this name, he knew well that she was Kaguya's relative, who came from the Shijo family, which was a branch family of Shinomiya, who left due to the disagreement of the ruthless business practice of the Shinomiya group.
It might be strange for a high school student like him to learn all of that, but considering he might be kicked out of the country due to the Shinomiya group, then he should choose his ally to get his revenge, right?
Still, his problem aside, the priority was Maki's problem, yet he had never thought that—
"Ishigami-kun... I know that it might be sudden, especially when I asked you for help, but... can you tell me how to seduce a boy?"
