Three to five boys gathered together.
"Look, that's the Angel from the class next door, she's really cute, especially that pair of..."
"Where! Where!"
"Sorry, but in my heart, there's someone even cuter, and that's Miku from our class... Even if a real Angel came, it wouldn't matter."
"Tch... Then why are you staring at the Angel so intently?"
"Exactly, what a hypocrite."
The surrounding boys mocked this person disdainfully.
"Cough cough..."
"I think Shiina Student is cuter, Miku is too introverted, she doesn't even talk to us."
"As if you've talked to the Angel."
"What did you say? Anyway, I think Miku is cuter!"
"Angel!"
"Miku!"
"Angel!"
"Miku!"
"Angel..."
"Miku..."
"An..."
"..."
"Actually, May from our class is also very cute..." A slightly weaker voice came out.
"Yes, I really like the twin sisters too!"
The other students around looked at these few boys as if they were idiots and actively kept their distance from them.
...
Meanwhile, Mochizuki and the other two looked around in surprise, not expecting so many people to show up.
This made Yui Yuigahama and Totsuka Saika even more nervous, not expecting things to get this big.
Yui Yuigahama thought that losing in this situation would be a bit embarrassing, and also, she didn't want to face Miura Yumiko and them, and she might very well drag Mochizuki down.
After all, her skills weren't great, and Yui Yuigahama knew Miura Yumiko's strength.
Right now... she gritted her teeth, Yui Yuigahama spoke anxiously, then ran past the crowd and headed outside.
"I'm going to find Yukino!"
"Huh..." "Huh..."
They didn't even give Mochizuki and Totsuka Saika a chance to reply.
Some students who came to watch were also a bit strange to see Yui Yuigahama run off, but they weren't clear about the mixed doubles match rule that had just been decided.
And Shiina Mahiru off the court was also quite worried for Mochizuki.
Why is Mochizuki-kun suddenly going to play a match with students from the class next door? Weren't they practicing Tennis? And looking at the scale of this, it's gotten quite big!
Why isn't Yukinoshita here?
What's the relationship between that girl who just ran off and Mochizuki? Is she another member of the club?
And who is that other girl standing next to him, holding a Tennis racket, who looks particularly frail!
...
"Mochizuki student, I'm really sorry, it's all my fault..."
Totsuka Saika spoke sadly, tears welling up in his eyes, looking very pitiful. It was all his fault for not firmly refusing Miura Yumiko and getting into this situation.
"Don't worry, it's fine, we won't lose."
Mochizuki said comfortingly, Hey hey hey, looking like that, others will think I bullied you!
Feeling Mochizuki's encouragement and that he wasn't blaming him, Totsuka Saika thought happily, Mochizuki student is indeed a good person.
"Yes, thank you! Mochizuki student."
Totsuka Saika wiped his eyes and revealed his handsome little face again.
Mochizuki nodded, seemingly looking around, but in his heart, he was thinking, Yui Yuigahama, you have to find Yukinoshita quickly.
Otherwise, he'll have to fight two against one, and he doesn't know if they'll agree...
"Damn it, that guy, he seems really familiar with Angel Saika."
"No, I'm jealous!"
"No way, big brother... Although Totsuka is indeed very cute, I even had a crush on him when school first started..."
"Hayama, teach him a good lesson!"
...
"Miku? Why are you here too."
It turned out to be May, who had just walked into the court, finding Miku in a corner.
Because a female classmate told May that Mochizuki student was going to have a match with someone, May then followed that female classmate over.
Along the way, May was startled to find that quite a few people had shown up.
She didn't expect Miku to be here too.
"Heard Night was having a match, came to watch."
Miku answered calmly, then kept staring at Mochizuki and Totsuka Saika on the court.
Mochizuki and Saika felt like they were being stared at by strange eyes, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Wh-What's wrong, it hasn't started yet, why are your eyes so wide?"
"That guy, I don't know what's going on."
May said helplessly, then sat next to Miku, ready to watch together. Although she had a spectators' attitude, she still hoped Mochizuki would win.
On the other side of the steps in this corner, another slightly hunched man was curled up.
It was Hikigaya Hachiman. Although no one in his class tipped him off, Hikigaya, who seemed to be sleeping but was actually wide awake, also heard the news that the popular group in his class was going to compete with the Service Club.
Even Hikigaya had curiosity.
Hearing it was the Service Club, and having nothing else to do anyway, Hikigaya followed along. He just didn't know why Yoshiteru Zaimokuza would also sit next to him and keep nagging him to look at his light novel.
So noisy, so annoying!
You know, after reading "re:zero − starting life in another world", his Hikigaya's taste is now very picky, and ordinary light novels can hardly catch his eye.
Let alone Zaimokuza's...
"Hachiman Great Bodhisattva, pay attention to me! You've changed, you weren't like this before!"
"Hachiman! Hachiman!"
Miku and May were attracted by the commotion Zaimokuza made, and both looked curiously in the direction of Hikigaya.
Their little mouths slightly open, they both thought at the same time, what's with this dead fish eye!
Hikigaya also noticed the two looking over. Although they were two rare twin beautiful girls, they had nothing to do with him.
However, this did make Hikigaya notice that Zaimokuza's movements easily attracted the attention of others, and he just wanted to be a quiet spectator.
To avoid Yoshiteru Zaimokuza's noise attracting more people.
Finally, Hikigaya chose to compromise. Hikigaya took the thick manuscript from Zaimokuza's hand and read it painfully.
Forget it, just consider it repayment to Zaimokuza. He also played a part in discovering the book "re:zero − starting life in another world".
While reading... Hikigaya: Damn it! Give me Death Return!
Most of the students from the two classes who came to watch had arrived.
Amidst everyone's expectant gazes.
Hayama Hayato and Miura Yumiko appeared.
The two changed into cool sportswear, both with beautiful blonde hair, and were particularly eye-catching as soon as they appeared.
A burst of cheers rang out around them.
Miura Yumiko smiled triumphantly, and Hayama also smiled, warmly responding to the classmates who greeted him.
