"You misunderstood."
Hoshiharu knew what Kanata wanted to say.
It's just that with his level F magic power, his fate is very insignificant, and his influence on the world is negligible, making it impossible for him to become the strongest in the world.
Being the strongest in the world means his words and actions would greatly impact the entire world, easily influencing international situations and historical trends. These are things that a Blazer with level F magic power cannot achieve.
But there was not a hint of sadness on Hoshiharu's face.
"It's not a question of whether I can do it or not, but whether I must do it or not. I have to become the strongest in the world. If my magic power is not enough, I will train my physical strength to a point where I can surpass everyone... Whatever stands in front of me, even if it's fate, I will crush it!"
Hoshiharu clenched his fist, his eyes filled with determination.
He even cooperated with the other party and issued the declaration twice.
"I don't want to live a life like that again, giving up before trying hard."
In his previous life, he was an otaku, and after achieving financial freedom, he basically just ate, drank, and had fun every day, living in a mess. He had no life goals and no meaning in eating and waiting for death day after day.
But in this life, he has lofty ideals and the ability to achieve them.
How could he be bound by ridiculous and cheap statements that are merely theories of fate?
If he gave up before trying hard, how could he succeed?
This is the deepest secret in Hoshiharu's heart.
Besides his Master, Touka, and the doctor who treated him, Kanata was the first person to know.
Huh? It seems he did it to fish on the first day of school. He had said this before, and if many people knew, it would be fine.
"...I see."
Seeing Hoshiharu like this, Kanata's eyes were full of color.
Never give up until you try hard.
If you still haven't succeeded after trying hard, even when you're old, you can proudly say that you didn't waste your time in this life and have no regrets.
She gradually understood how Hoshiharu survived.
What about her?
Caught between family interests and her selfish desires, how should she choose?
No, there's no need to hesitate anymore.
"I've answered your question, is it my turn now?"
Hoshiharu came back to his senses, let go of some secondary thoughts, and stared at Kanata angrily.
"The atmosphere between Senior Sister and me was very good just now. We were almost going further. But as soon as you came, Senior Sister ran away. How are you going to compensate me?"
The atmosphere was perfect. Once he raised his head, he would have been able to connect smoothly with Touka, and their relationship would naturally take a step further.
But such a good atmosphere was ruined by Kanata.
"Sorry..."
Kanata stood up, walked to the edge of the bed, then bowed gently.
Hoshiharu's eyes narrowed.
Her round shape was indeed revealed!
The white dress Kanata was wearing was a very tight-fitting model. Usually, her chest would bulge. Now when she bent over, it was even more frightening, as if it could jump out at any time.
Deservedly the largest in Hagun Academy, even better than Touka and Stella.
Kanata bent down and got close to Hoshiharu's ear. Her green eyes were filled with autumn water, and she seemed shy about her actions.
"If that's the case, how about I compensate you?"
A shy voice sounded.
Her voice was deliberately lowered, and the hot air when she spoke made his ears itch.
At this moment, Hoshiharu was lying on the bed, and Kanata half-pressed him. They were very close, and the cherry-colored lips were right in front of him a little.
Hoshiharu: (⊙o⊙)
'Eh?'
'Ehhhhh?'
'What did she just say?'
'What's with the uncontrollable shy expression on her face?'
'I haven't even flirted with you, have I?'
Even though he didn't have that idea, because he was busy training recently and considering Touka's existence, Hoshiharu didn't flirt with Kanata at all.
There was even an unpleasant separation between the two of them, and basically, there was no chance for Hoshiharu to fall in love with her.
'Why did she suddenly give it for free?'
'Is my charm high enough for a rich woman to give it to me for free?'
'Then I still work hard—meaning I don't need to think about how to make money—isn't it nice to live on the soft rice of a rich woman?'
'Pooh!'
'The doctor who treated me, Miss Kiriko the pharmacist, did say that I have a bad digestive condition and am suitable for eating soft rice!'
'So I'm not just eating soft food, this is called following the doctor's advice!'
"But senpai..."
Hoshiharu almost agreed, but when everything was about to end, he felt worried.
If Touka found out, wouldn't she draw her sword and cut him?
Narukami equipped with a spirit is not an ordinary sword!
"Just, don't let Touka know."
Kanata felt a bit uncomfortable continuing to bend over, so she just pressed on Hoshiharu's body, not caring that her chest was squashed.
At the same time, she encouraged him with sparkling eyes.
"I want to know what true love is like, but I still have an engagement, so I can't just refuse it, or it will definitely affect the family business, so I can't fall in love openly."
"And you don't want Touka to know, so aren't we the perfect match? We just need to fall in love secretly without telling anyone... Don't you think it's exciting?"
When Kanata said this, her eyes became bright, and she looked very excited.
"I didn't expect you to be such a woman!"
"Behind the appearance of a noble and graceful lady, there is actually a heart that pursues excitement!"
However, Hoshiharu imagined that secretly having an affair with Touka's best friend was indeed very exciting.
"You must be short of money now, right?"
Seeing Hoshiharu still pondering, not even looking at her, and his eyelids drooping, looking a bit hesitant, Kanata directly used her trump card.
"Yesterday, I saw you and Kusakabe Kagami sharing stolen goods. In theory, it should violate school rules, but I can help you suppress it... and, from now on, all your expenses will be covered by me!"
As the eldest daughter of the Totokubara Consortium and a powerful B-Rank Blazer, Kanata still has a certain voice in the family, and the funds she can mobilize are enormous.
As for what happens next, let's consider it later.
Hoshiharu's eyes suddenly became sharp.
He had to admit that he was moved by the last words.
All future expenses will be covered by Kanata!
Listen to how powerful these words are! He had to admire her big chest! It also made Hoshiharu's conscience, which was about to surge, instantly suppressed.
"I think this compensation is quite appropriate, and I don't feel any dissatisfaction at all!"
Hoshiharu quickly changed sides and solemnly declared that he had accepted the relevant compensation.
"Then this is the initial compensation..."
Kanata's eyes were filled with tears, her voice as soft as a mosquito's moan, her cheeks blushing, and then she took the initiative to kiss his lips.
