My System Always Wants to Force Me to Confess
Chapter 196: Mastery of Firewood Cutting lv4

Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Mastery of Firewood Cutting lv4

At this moment, Shirakawa Sawahei couldn’t help but question his soul.

What on earth have I done?

No, in fact, during this period, I haven’t interacted much with Little Transparent. The one who’s been closest to her is actually Azusa Stonefield.

So, in other words...

What exactly did Azusa Stonefield do?

Could it be that I actually misunderstood this guy, and her purpose for approaching Little Transparent was purely to assist me?

You’re really dedicated, Yuri Hime, I wronged you...

An invisible assist is the most lethal!

But then again, how exactly did she manage to instantly add 20% to my confession progress?

He originally thought that if a romantic rival appeared, it would inevitably have some impact on his progress strategy. But Azusa Stonefield did the opposite; not only did she not hinder his relationship with Little Transparent, but she also gave him a package of experience, bringing Shirakawa Sawahei quite a few benefits.

What kind of romantic rival is this? She’s obviously a master of assisting!

Well done, Yuri Hime!

Shirakawa Sawahei took another look at Little Transparent’s panel. There was still a safe distance to the top in the confession progress, which means that as long as Azusa Stonefield doesn’t act too rashly, just maintaining this daily interaction shouldn’t reach the standard for a confession.

Even if by bad luck it does fill up, as long as he’s careful to avoid the system’s forcibly set confession routines, it shouldn’t be a big issue.

When the confession progress isn’t full, the system is like a salted fish, but once it fills up, this lousy system might start to act up.

Sigh, thinking about it, Hayakawa Kashi is much more hassle-free; even with her father personally assisting, the progress hasn’t budged an inch, as stable as a defense tower.

Oh, wait, the Little Arrogant Study Girl’s current progress is still on the confession interception progress; it probably still needs a few unlucky ones to confess before it can turn into a confession progress bar.

Thinking of this, Shirakawa Sawahei couldn’t help but check out the panel of the Little Arrogant Scorpio. Ever since the last achievement: the declaration of the domineering CEO was completed, it seemed like there haven’t been any further developments. Who knows what the next achievement is.

Master of Fish Pond Management?

Woman, are you playing with fire?

It doesn’t seem applicable to Miss Kaori... but the reverse actually seems a bit interesting.

[Target’s favorability increased, unlocking a new skill bonus, confession interception target reversed]

Yet another simple prompt, still no specific favorability value, but Shirakawa Sawahei doesn’t care about that. What’s important is the new skill bonus Miss Kaori brings.

Last time Hayakawa Kashi’s favorability increased, it brought a new talent bonus, but this time it’s swapped for a new skill bonus. Though a bit regrettable, having something is always better than nothing.

He eagerly opened the detailed panel.

[Machete Mastery: lv4; Additional effect: 20% mental deterrent bonus against scumbags]

Shirakawa Sawahei: "..."

Excitedly clicked in, cursing out as he clicked out.

What the hell, Machete Mastery, Hayakawa Kashi, do you actually have a hidden yandere dark side! That’s terrifying!

If I hadn’t taken the time to check today, I wouldn’t have known you had such a scary skill!

Although from Miss Kaori’s proud and chilly character, she indeed should be the type to make scumbags retreat... but this lv4 is too outrageous!

This girl might actually be called Xiyuan Temple Xiazi!

The key point is that you can’t even tell on the outside...

To resolve this inner doubt, Shirakawa Sawahei asked the girl closest to Hayakawa Kashi—Black Hearted Lolita, Asano Nazuki.

"Asano."

"Hmm?"

"I want to ask you something..." Shirakawa Sawahei hesitated a bit before speaking, "If your future boyfriend was a scumbag, cheating you out of your feelings... what would you do?"

Black Hearted Lolita looked at Little Bai with full alert, thinking to herself if this guy took the wrong medicine, why is he suddenly asking this kind of question.

Before she could voice this doubt, Tsukimi Sakurazawa said for her, "Shirakawa, why are you suddenly asking this."

"Just want to understand girls a bit more."

"Why don’t you ask me then!"

"Didn’t you say we’re best bros?" Shirakawa Sawahei wondered, "Asking you is no different from asking myself."

"That’s not the same! If it were me! If my boyfriend was a scumbag, of course, I’d slap him a few times and then tell him to beat it."

"But, if he already became my boyfriend, he must be a guy I really like, so I might not have the heart to hit him..." The whimpering girl pretended to be aggrieved, "No choice, I’m just such a weak girl; when someone scolds me, I just tear up and can’t say a word back."

Shirakawa Sawahei glanced sideways at her, "You? Find a boyfriend first before you talk."

Tsukimi Sakurazawa punched Shirakawa Sawahei angrily.

Seeing Tsukimi Sakurazawa had answered, Asano Nazuki also thought for a moment before responding, "If it were me... I definitely wouldn’t forgive him! I might even break his leg to vent."

"Wow, Kaori, you’re such a badass girl, I’m in love."

"Not at all, actually, I’m usually like the president, when someone scolds me, I just tug at my skirt in grievance and can’t say anything harsh to retort back~"

Ha ha.

Hearing this, Shirakawa Sawahei let out a couple of cold laughs but didn’t expose them. Both girls’ answers seemed relatively normal, without any yandere tendencies.

So, does that mean it’s really Miss Kaori with the issue?

Hmm, at least I’m not a scumbag.

With such a thought of relief, Shirakawa Sawahei spent the club activity time peacefully.

Afterwards, it was time to meet up with Hayakawa Kashi for four-hand piano practice. Given that he still had the Black Hearted Lolita tag-along dragging him down, going straight to see Hayakawa Kashi didn’t feel quite right. So, Shirakawa Sawahei decided to send her home first before making other plans.

Asano Nazuki keenly caught onto his intention and immediately demanded warily, "Shirakawa Sawahei, if you send me home, where are you going afterwards?"

Shirakawa Sawahei didn’t bother explaining so much to her and casually said, "Part-time job."

"You’re lying! Don’t think I haven’t noticed your part-time schedule! If it’s really a part-time job, why don’t you wait for Orikin to go together!"

"Spill it! Are you going to see that black-hearted woman to get reward money?"

"..."

Seeing no way to deny it, Shirakawa Sawahei nodded reluctantly, "I am going to see Hayakawa, but it’s not for your business okay."

"Then what is it for!"

"For the competition."

"I don’t believe you! You two must be plotting against me, take me with you, or I won’t... no, or I’ll cling to you!"

Hearing this, Shirakawa Sawahei couldn’t help but feel speechless internally, thinking with such little capability, you can’t even handle your sister, yet you expect us to team up against you?

Have a little self-awareness, weakling.

"You’re not afraid Hayakawa will mock you for running away from home if she sees you?"

"That..." Black Hearted Lolita hesitated for a moment, gritting her teeth, "She already knows my whereabouts anyway! What do I have to fear!"

"Little Bai, you better remember well, once we get there, you must insist that you invited me to your house for fun! Got it."

"That’s such a silly reason, I can’t bring myself to say it."

"I don’t care! It’s because you sold me out, you have an obligation to help me save some face!"

This statement hit a guilty point in Shirakawa Sawahei’s heart. He coughed twice, speaking somewhat unnaturally, "Although it was your GPS that wasn’t turned off that exposed your location, no matter how you look at it for the sake of our acquaintanceship, I’ll help you this time."

Black Hearted Lolita snorted softly, made eye contact with him for a while with an unfriendly gaze, then turned her head.

Damn arrogant Little Bai, not admitting to doing wrong! If it weren’t for my generosity, I’d fight you to the end today!
