Volume 1 Chapter 73 With Sagawa and Rie, Part tan ~Adding Amamiya Value Technology~ (III)
"I see. Good... good! It seems my *prediction* was not wrong!!"
"Kanna...san?"
"Kisaragi-san?"
A wave of 'madness' leaks from Kisaragi-san, likely the strongest today.
Her beautiful face only amplifies the intensity of that maddened expression.
"As expected, I must have a connection with Yuki Takeru, no matter what. Absolutely... Young Lady!"
"Y-yes!?"
Suddenly called by name, Amamiya stands frozen in shock.
"Young Lady... do you like Takeru-kun?"
"Eh... ehhh!! W-what is this all of a sudden?!"
"Then, do you dislike him?"
"I don't dislike him... I suppose."
"I see, good! Then, I'll go ask Teitoku to let you marry him right away!"
"Eh! To father?!"
"It's fine! With my support, even that Teitoku will nod. Besides..."
"Besides?"
"Teitoku is one of the researchers working with me and Sakurako on 'that'. And Takeru-kun is likely... deeply involved in that research as well. So, if I mention that, Teitoku will have no choice but to accept Takeru-kun as your husband..."
"Wait!? Kanna-san, don't decide that on your own! Sagawa, say something!"
"Me!? Honestly, getting in between you two is... a bit..."
"What? You're a boy! Show some spirit in protecting your female classmate! This is why Sagawa is useless!"
"Ehh...?"
Wow, I got caught in the crossfire.
Wow, this is unreasonable.
"Hehehe... I see."
Then, Kisaragi-san suddenly looks at us, grinning and muttering something.
Eh... what?
"? Kanna-san?"
"No, sorry, sorry. You're right... it might be a bit early to bring that up with Teitoku. But for now, I think it's fine to tell Takeru-kun that his true identity is Omega."
"Eh? Why is that!"
"Takeru-kun has already shown his 'ability' to Sagawa-kun. But, he called Sagawa-kun a 'friend.' So, it seems he somewhat trusts the current Sagawa-kun. ...Are you okay so far, my lady?"
"Y-yeah."
"I want Sagawa-kun to tell Takeru-kun that he discussed 'healing ability' with you."
"Eh? If that's the case, I'm scared I'll have to go through another 'trauma execution move'... By the way, I've received an ultimatum from Takeru, saying 'If you spill the beans, I'll do it again,' so there's no doubt it will happen..."
"Don't worry, Sagawa-kun! Takeru-kun has healing ability, so he can heal you many times, right? So...you won't die!"
"N-no, um...I do feel pain..."
"It's fine! You can overcome that with youth!! "
"Eeehh... "
Ah, this is something I can't refuse.
It's a must for Kisaragi-san...because the 'wave of madness' is overwhelming.
"Understood, I'll do my best (staring into the distance)."
"Alright! You'll do it! As expected of the man I have my eye on, Sagawa-kun! Now, next...my lady."
"Y-yes!?"
Seeing me being pressed by Kisaragi-san, Amamiya's expression stiffened with tension as he realized the attention was now directed at him.
"This time, I want you to tell Takeru-kun that you learned about 'healing ability.' And one more thing...I want you to say, 'With the knowledge of Amamiya Value Technology, I am asking for your cooperation regarding that ability.'"
"Is it okay to mention Kanna-san's name?"
"Yes. If necessary, you can even mention your old man...the representative of Amamiya Value Technology, 'Masatoku.' He is that important to me... no, to my company... and even to 'Japan.'"
"Eh? J-Japan...!"
"I felt like Kisaragi-san's story was getting a bit larger in scale, and Amamiya and I couldn't help but be caught off guard."
"Also, I suspect that Takeru-kun needs a 'trusted ally' as well... I'm counting on that."
"W-why!? How can you say something like that!?"
Seeing Kisaragi-san, who seemed to be predicting this conversation in advance, I couldn't help but step in between them and ask about the logic behind it.
"That's still a secret. But there's a high probability that Takeru-kun will find 'Amamiya Value Technology (this)' collaboration appealing."
"R-really?"
I don't know... I don't know, but Kisaragi-san's story is incredibly persuasive.
Perhaps it's because genius Kisaragi-san has gained considerable confidence about 'something regarding Takeru' that only they can see.
I want to know.
"...Alright. Then Sagawa, let's talk to Takeru-kun together next time. We'll start with the 'healing ability', and eventually lead into the topic that 'Omega is Takeru-kun'... I'll prepare myself too."
Amamiya wrapped up the conversation, adding in their own resolute words.
"Ah... Just one more thing?"
"What is it, Sagawa?"
"Don't say to Takeru that... 'I managed to escape from the truck by my own power' okay?"
"Oh, of course not!"
...There's one hour and ten minutes left until the 'press conference'.
