The Pain of an Inferior: A Blistering Love Comedy That Begins After a Broken Heart - Chapter 82

Chapter 82 – Advanced Dominance Fighter Experiment 01

Haruka had been depressed a lot lately.

It’s because he now has another problem to worry about, Shinku, in addition to Tsuyuri and Sumireko.

It would be embarrassing if Haruka was being too self-conscious, but he had a feeling that Yunika was also in love with him.

“Ah?, This is too muuuuch.”

Haruka clutched his head and collapsed on the sofa.

“HA-RUKAA, come here.”

Ria, who had been reading a book besides Haruka, urged him to lay his head on her lap. Haruka complied as Ria stroked his hair.

Haruka raised his upper body and jumped into Ria’s chest as if he was going to push her down.

Ria held him and stroked his head and back as if she was comforting him. They stayed like that for a while, feeling deep affection and a sense of security.

“Are you worried about Claudia-san?”

“Yeah… And also, about Tsuyuri, Sumireko-senpai, and many other things…”

Haruka’s voice was muffled as he was talking with his face pressed against Ria’s chest.

Feeling Haruka’s breath on her chest, Ria’s body shook a little shyly.

“I’ve only hung out with Claudia-san around five times, but there wasn’t any hint that she would pull something like that….”

“It’s quite something to suddenly drug someone into sleeping with them, isn’t it?”

Just like with Tsuyuri, Haruka told Ria everything that had happened to him with Shinku up until the day before.

Ria’s eyes widened, she was more surprised compared to when Haruka told her about Tsuyuri.

Ria was surprised that out of all people, it was Shinku that drugged Haruka and attacked him out of the blue.

Had Haruka reported her, she would’ve been charged with r?a?pe?.

Shinku was a status conscious girl, there was a good chance that would kill herself if her citizen rank had fallen to rank D. Ria wondered if she knew the risk before committing such a heinous act.

“Claudia-san too, has fallen in love with Haruka.”

Ria kissed Haruka’s hair, which smelled sweet from the shampoo.

She brushed her lips through Haruka’s hair as if she was grooming a kitten.

“Ria… Please…”

“Whaa~t is it?”

As Ria responded, she thought that Haruka was about to ask her if he could have more lovers, but the answer was different.

“Please don’t give up on me… Don’t throw me away…”

Haruka rubbed the top of his head against Ria’s chest and clung to her.

“Eh?? That’s my line?”

Ria found Haruka’s vulnerable state adorable that she caressed him faster. She felt that Haruka’s hand that’s embracing her is filled with love.

“If Claudia-san, Shirogane-san, or any other such beautiful people become your lovers, Haruka might not care about me anymore.”

Despite her self deprecating words, Ria had a happy expression on her face. She had great confidence that Haruka would never do such a thing.

“There’s no way I would do that.”

“I know~”

Ria pressed her lips on Haruka’s head as she hugged him tightly.

“I’ve been alone all my life, so I love the lively environment I’m in now.

So, if Shirogane-san and Claudia-san doesn’t mind us being together, I’m fine with them becoming your lover.”

“If Ria continues to spoil me like this, I’ll became more and more of a bum.”

“You can be a bum all you like. But don’t dump me. …… I’ll die if you leave me…”

Ria patted Haruka on the back as she told him the weight of her feelings.

For a moment, Haruka thought of Ria’s death, his blood ran cold.

“I will never abandon you… I’m going to stay with you until I die.”

“Yeah…”

They hugged each other tightly as they drifted off to sleep.

“Haru-kun Good Mornin?.”

Miyako came into the living room with a cheerful greeting, but when she saw the Haruka and Ria lying down on the sofa hugging each other, her emotions fell.

“Good morning?, Miyako.”

Ria stroked Haruka’s back slowly while making eye contact with Miyako.

With a miffed look on her face, Miyako moved closer to them on the sofa.

“Haru-kun, you’ll turn into a grated daikon if you keep rubbing your face on a cutting board like that… Come here…”

Miyako spread her arms for Haruka to jump in, but he didn’t respond.

Ria moved her eyes from Haruka to Miyako, she grinned while her eyes slightly narrowed.

“Looks like Haruka prefers the cutting board.”

“Grrr…”

Impudently, Miyako sat down on the carpet, rested her head on Haruka’s thighs, and began editing a video from her stream.

?

Three days had passed since Haruka had slept with Shinku.

Shinku had been absent from school for two days due to muscle pain, then she took a break after that, so Haruka hadn’t seen Shinku for a total of three days.

During this time, Haruka had encountered a different kind of problem other than his lover issues.

For some reason, he started to have flashbacks of the time when he slept with Shinku.

Sometimes he would be in a daze, thinking only about Shinku’s body, and at other times he would suddenly feel palpitations or had an uneasy feeling.

“I wonder if there’s still some of the drug left in my system…”

The drug had given him a lot of energy. It wouldn’t be surprising if there were any strange side effects.

“Haru-kun~ Gyuu…”

While Haruka was lost in thought, Miyako hugged him from behind.

“Aren’t you suppose to participate at an ingame event today?”

Haruka called out to Miyako who was standing behind him.

“It was postponed due to emergency maintenance.”

“I see, I’m sorry to hear that.”

“Not at all. I’m just glad I now have time to have you all to myself, Haru-kun.”

Haruka untied Miyako’s hand, turned around, and embraced her from the front.

Haruka lifted Miyako up and held her in his arms.

Miyako was excited as she hugged him closely, her arms and legs intertwined with Haruka’s body.

They kissed lightly once and stared at each other.

At that moment, Shinku’s face overlapped in Miyako’s from Haruka’s perspective.

Even though Haruka thought that they were both beautiful, their faces and hair colors were nothing alike.

“……”

“? Is something wrong?”

“Nah… It’s nothing.”

Haruka shook his head and went to the bedroom with Miyako in his arms.

He gently placed Miyako down on the bed and caressed her cheek, as if he was handling a precious object.

“Haru-kun, Wuv?”

Miyako placed her arms around Haruka’s neck, pulled him closer, and laid her lips on his.

Haruka gazed at her tenderly, as he kissed her back.

“I love you, Shinku–err I mean Miyako…..”

“…………”
