Editing Seitokai no Ichizon:Volume 1 Chapter 1

"The world isn't boring. You've become a boring human!"
　
So that the usual Kaichou's small breasts stretched to mere second-hand telling of greatness or so I was told.

Lately however I have been receiving strange sights just like that from that I can see. I, however, am personally having loads of fun, though I probably can't see myself becoming one of those damned boring humans.  

Yet, "firsts" are always fun.

First time falling in love.

First time making a friend.

First time making a mistake.

First time succeeding.


First time playing... an eroge!


Granted, I always think back to this.

"The old days sure were fun."

I think back to nursery school, when I was the same as a large number of other humans.

I think back to elementary school, when I was so glad to have that backpack.

I think back to middle school, when a bus pass presented to an adult gave the feeling of a gentleman, a man of virtue.

I think back to high school, when others kicked me down and as a consequence for exerting myself to win something for enjoyment; I remember all of it.  

Yes, something significant like that.

"Well, what's so bad about virgins?"

"Pfft!"

　I asked the question, and Kaichou spat out all the tea as she coughed her throat out. As usual, she ad-libbed herself as the 'vulnerable person' because we were the only ones in the room. Today was all about having fun, though.

　Kaichou's eyes began to water, and she immediately went to the table where she dried her eyes with tissues. Then, she glared at me.

"Now it's my turn to speak, why not come back here and I'll return the favor?"

"That's sweet, Kaichou. But I have a standard way of thinking, and that way is by direct connection!"

"What pride! Sugisaki, in just a short time, you'll become aware of the vice president's role..."

"I am. I am fully aware that the Student Council is enough for my harem—"

"Denied! Self-aware Vice President, listen up: first off, start by throwing away that fact from your self-conscious. "

　Kaichou made an earnest comeback, just like any other day. Even then, it was still cute, Kaichou。

　I smugly looked below at her short stature.  In addition, the young child was trying to compensate for her childishness by stretching and changing her behavior, but in 
the end it was a fruitless effort by Kaichou and she damned her size, wanting to sprout and become tall.

　So, she tried to sprout.  But just like that the reality of those words hit her.  It was a lovely sight, but it was already too late for her as the whole school could recognize her.  It was too cute.  Kaichou at one time observed budding anime characters grow up.  She was an irregular little girl.

"Kaichou."

"What?"
　
Kaichou wiped up the tea and curled the tissue up, aimed it at the trash bin at the corner of the room. She shut one eye and seriously started to aim, it was extremely cute.

　Kaichou was cute enough that I put my elbow to the desk and informed her,

"I like you.  Please go out with me."

"Nya!"

She jumped, sending the clump of tissue flying beautifully in the opposite direction of the trash can.

Kaichou scowled at me with watery eyes.

"Sugisaki, why is this superficial confession occurring?!"

"I'm serious." 

"Liar!"

"‘Hi_rashi' material is seriously old, Kaichou"

Even if she did reply back through her trembling tear filled eyes, it was a quite a tragic predicament.

"Sugisaki, don't tell me you've forgotten your first speech?!"

"What was it?  Uhhh… ‘Its fine, go ahead without me!' …  Was it?

"What kind of circumstances was the Student Council in at the beginning?!　Wrong!"

"I didn't say that?  Well then… ‘I have no interest in ordinary humans.  If you are a Time traveler, alien―'"

"That's dangerous Sugisaki!  That has varied meanings!"

"It's fine.  It's original."

"What sort of assurance is that?!　Anime doesn't descend from god!"

　I was scolded by Kaichou.   … No wait, I need to get to the bottom of this subject, right?　Isn't that the wrong label?　I quickly remembered back to that time.
　... Yes.  I, remember that time, gathered the student council members… 4 beautiful bishoujos, and made a proclamation.

<img src="img/生徒会01_010.jpg">

"I love you all.  I love you so much. I want to go out with everybody.  It's absolutely for everyone's happiness. "

"Yes!  That time, you gave the Student Council that half-baked confession!  Listen up, you can't just say you want to go out with someone but not care which person, who's swayed by that?!"

"How rude. Anyone proper could be swayed.   As a certain author said, ‘I have no interest in anyone that isn't a bishoujo.'"

"I think you just want anyone cute!  Also, if you go on and do that Fujimi Fantasia Bunko[http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Translator_Notes_%26_References] we can move on!"

"I have a single-track mind!　Bishoujos!"

"I should tie you up!"

"They sure are rare, Bishoujos."

"That's not the problem!  A confession at one moment of time to several people, it's not sincere!"

"Eh… Isn't it better than an indecisive main character?  This is just the beginning, and declaring, "I'm aiming for the Harem Route!", doesn't it make me more manly?"

"Unfortunately the protagonist and you run contrary to a Galge[http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Translator_Notes_%26_References] !

"Then are you saying the fact is I'm not a protagonist!  Even if I love girls?!

"Basically you are the worst choice for a protagonist!  It's a selection!   You are more like the protagonist's friend!  Realize that you are a joke character for gags!"

　Kaichou was awfully detailed.

"Someone else has a nice face too-"

"Of an influential artist!"

　Only Kaichou would say that about Bishoujo Characters… I guess, but whatever.

I chatted with the president as I went to pick up her discarded tissue; it was only a short distance from the trash can.

"… …"

　I sat down while watching the complex Kaichou.  I tilted my seat back and forth.

"What happened?　Kaichou…"

"… Sugisaki, occasionally you are kind of thoughtful and sometimes kind… subconsciously…"

"Ah…  With that sort of opening, I think you can get a more favorable impression right?"

"That was your aim!? Damn it! Already I have gone and somewhat increased my inner relationship points!"

"Hehehe…  Well, actually that's really exaggerated, but I'm certain it's my aim, more or less.  I mean, it is an old habit.  It makes me popular among the women though.  

It's subconsciously done now."

"Hmmm…  That isn't a common ero power."

"Yes, it's not a common power, for me. When my destination is the Harem Route, absolute strength becomes necessary."

"Ah, it takes physical strength, you say."

　With Kaichou's loli appearance, that sort is useless for stories.  She went and plugged her ears.  … Cute.

　However…

"Kaichou. You're too late; I have said all the evidence that needs to be understood…"

"………Waa"

　Damn, she turned red.  She nervously fidgeted around.  … cute.   It's really cute, Kaichou.  Because it was a great effort by the Student Council to understand me, 
Kaichou became a great driving force behind it.

　So Kaichou continued on with that, unfortunately really, until the door to the Student Council room opened intruding their time together.

"Ki-Kun. Stop teasing Aka-chan so much."

　So says, like the president a third-year, the female secretary, Chizuru-san as she entered.

　By the way that's my nickname, Ki-kun.  My given name is "Key" written as "Ken" therefore, Ki-kun.

　Another point, Aka-chan was Kaichou.  Also, Kaichou's given name is "Kurimu" and, Kurimuzon＝Crimson[http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Translator_Notes_%26_References]  or, Aka-chan [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Translator_Notes_%26_References] I can say with confidence that these nicknames are awfully simplistic but, Chizuru-san seems to be pleased with that.  Kaichou personally gets annoyed and says, "I do not act like a baby!" however, her loli appearance as she says, which is not too far from "exactly" what Chizuru-san and I think.

　However, you call your classmates by their family name and your underclassmen by their first name. With that fact alone, it's a very good feeling to be called a nick name from her, however Chizuru-san says, ‘I don't mean anything from that, I don't have any particular feelings for you.'  Mysterious woman indeed…

　Now that Chizuru-san is here, Kaichou became a totally different person.  A tall figure, it appeared as if she was born into an influential family, furthermore her long black hair rustled and flowed, it was fascinating to be so close to the sprinkles of her adult charm.  Her nature, a Kuudere[http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Translator_Notes_%26_References]  while acting kindly to possess a balance…

　Kaichou has a different significance however; it's still possible to say she is an ideal bishoujo.  No, rather than a bishoujo, you can perhaps say she is a beautiful person. 

Her seat during meetings was chosen at her discretion, I argued.  

"It's not something I tease about.  However, I will embarrass her."

"It's not that bad."

"It will be fine.  We both had the same idea."

　I had to explain; Kaichou was shouting, "Liar!" and was ignoring me.

　While Kaichou reverted to a child-like personality, Chizuru-san started talking to her.

"But, no one else is coming. My Harem!"

"The Student Council is not your Harem Ki-Kun.  But, where are they?  We don't have anything spectacular planned.  Whenever we get together, eventually we just talk and 
eat sweets these days."

　As she was saying, Chizuru-san immediately reached for her bag and took out some food while taking a sip of her mineral water.

"You don't understand, Chizuru-san.  Basically feelings change, and it's a fact that change happens every meeting.  Look, even Galge, the meeting places are decided by the 
heroine right?"

"Even if its natural knowledge, that's a bit troubling…"

"In other words, the Student Council Room is where I come to raise my affection levels, and if they don't come how will they have an event scene―"

"So that's why they aren't coming. That's preferable."

　It was a quick and cruel Tsukkomi[http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Translator_Notes_%26_References]  jab. Chizuru-san… Kaichou could obviously do Tsukkomi, but not to that extent, and was occasionally cruel as well.   That was just plain psychological damage.

　I cleared my throat loudly, adding some positive thinking.

"But, Chizuru-san, you came to raise our affection levels as well"

"…   Ah…  Hmm, that must be it."

　What a cruel rejection.  Superb inattention though.  She took a snack out of the basket, and crunched on it as she started her homework.  

"Ku… but such Kuudere characters, their feelings get intense once they fall for you!"

"Ah, correct.  I'm very intense.  In elementary school, I sent 300 love letters to my first love as a child one day saying, "I like you", over and over in a list in the 
letters I gave him, in the end his mind broke.  His fragility was surprising; from then on I decided to become a Kuudere person.  … You I wonder however..."

　As I stared at Chizuru-san a particular detail of her mouth changed into a thin smile, as if she became cheerful.

　Kaichou's "Hig__rashi" material was growing extremely terrifying now.

　It can't be helped…

"I understand."

"Eh, are you prepared after hearing my story?  Are you going to accept all of me?　Wait a moment, that's a bit high of you, Ki-kun.  I'm certain Ki-kun that flag is a bit mediocre―"

"Chizuru-san, I'm just aiming for a physical relationship!  There is no need for love!"

"… Ah, next question, then."

　I got ignored magnificently.  Oh well.  But… aiming for a physical relationship, that unskillful way would make it more difficult with the girls right?
　And thinking on it, suddenly, Kaichou quickly extended her hand for one of Chizuru's snacks. Just before she ate the snack I gave her a warning.

"You're going to gain weight…"

"Uguu~~.  … It will be fine.  The nutrition, it will in turn help me get bigger breasts and grow taller!"

"But… isn't there a bigger risk that it will go to your stomach, that's a big concern."

"Ah, it will be fine! It will be difficult for me to gain weight!"

"However with your development it's probably hard to do."

"… Eh! Damn!"

　Ah, damned eating.

"… Answer the following question … Okay… ‘Metabolic Syndrome'…"

"…"

　Chizuru-san looked at her notes, and called them awful.  … It was likely she had a problem like that.

　Kaichou, taking a photo of her snacks, made the tension drop tremendously.   … Eventually the troubles ended, and she still ate her food.

　I put my hand on Kaichou's shoulder.

"It will be alright, Kaichou.  If no one will take your hand anymore…"

"Eh?  Possibly… If I'm fat, Will you still take me?  Even if I am not a bishoujo?  Sugisaki…you…"

　Kaichou was moved to tears. I gave her a pleasant smile.

"If no one will take your hand…  Live through your work."

"Realistic advice!?"

"I give assistance behind the shadows!"

"What shadows?!  My standard way of life is beginning to forsake me!  I don't have any value if I'm fat!"

"Well then, if you don't want to get fat keep fighting for me, I loudly support you."

"Auuuー"

　Kaichou dropped her shoulders.  Kaichou looked like somewhat almost ready to accept her new reality, it was cute but her mood wasn't what I was hoping for…  However I was caught unprepared for my harem member to feel so troubled. My harem members, each one of them, have to keep herself shining or otherwise it's no good!  It's similar to a mother when she casts away her daughter like that!

"Good luck, you're going to need it to stay in my Harem!"

"Ah, maybe it's better to rapidly get fat."

"…"

　Why everybody, but I can say with total confidence that is tsun. Slowly someone will have to fall dere for me, or I'll become completely lonely. The protagonist of a galge  is popular with women, and is also not miserable. I had many opportunities, where they would end up in a close friend ending in life, instead of that happening I'm going to have a pitiful life.

Chizuru-san had started a full blown effort on her homework, while Kaichou had become serious and ate her snacks in a total daze.

　With the enormous free time I started thinking about our next topic, but then the door rattled open, this time two girls entered the room. 

"Hello everyone!"

"Ah, sorry for being late."

　The contrasting attitudes went out together.

　The girl with lots of energy earlier, Shiina Minatsu, who is also a vice president like me, furthermore she's also my classmate. 

　Her long hair was tied into two pigtails (read Twin-Tails), and also because she's in "this Student Council", it's a fact that she's naturally a bishoujo.

　Even if there aren't any specific club activities, she's quite active and a bit boyish… perhaps a good way to describe her would be a tomboy.  But the fact is her livelihood is refreshing, and besides being popular with the guys, her popularity is high among the girls. Moreover it's also pretty rare; a few of her followers have some special feelings for her, and so her popularity skyrockets.

　It's just… It's just, I dislike her masculine ways, as my classmate and as my peer as vice president from my standpoint she should be asking me for help, so I am instantly hostile to that tendency.  It should be like an orthodox tsundere… but even as a dere there is not even a sign of a problem.

　And, going to the person who was bowing their head in apology, I quickly moved my eyes and stopped at the other girl, Shiina Mafuyu.  Minatsu's younger sister and a first year.  Her position is treasurer but the student council doesn't get very much money and therefore has nothing to do.

　Also this child, she spent so much time with her active older sister and became absorbed in her own world, therefore she's not good with men, I'm pretty confident her youth can pull some heartstrings.  Well … the reason she isn't good with men is because she dislikes them, but I'm certain it's due to her older sister (Her sister has a poisonous preference for Yuri 、making her think that men are scary).

　She had straight pale hair and white skin, and her modest ribbons became a charm point.  Her first name is called "Mafuyu" and it's was a very good name.  To have such childishness and cuteness, everyone would call the girl "Mafuyu-chan"。A few would call her "Mafuyu-san" or just "Mafuyu" which would be just as fitting for this child.  But, only her older sister Minatsu can call Mafuyu that, as for the reason it's a mystery.

　That's the Shiina sister's background, in my observations of the two.

"Yes Yes, Minatsu and Mafuyu-chan, ‘For the first time something is so interesting' or something like that, was there something interesting?"

　We returned back to the first subject.

"Well, that's unexpected."

　Minatsu took a seat next to me, watching me suspiciously.

"Well…  Kaichou wrote, the world hasn't become boring; you have become boring, so what's the reason? "

"Because you people are rude!"

　Kaichou makes a racket like that a lot however, we just ignore her. The two sisters pondered for a bit with a small "Hmmm".

　Mafuyu-chan was sitting diagonally from me, and she was the first to answer back.

"Or, Mafuyu's makeup… right?"

"Makeup?"

"Yes. As a young child I watched my mother, I really wanted to be like her.  So, in middle school, I bought my first cosmetics set and I was really happy… Mafuyu thought, and I would dress up like her but I didn't like it too much.  Recently, I have been wearing a minimal amount…"

"Ah, I see. Mafuyu-chan's appearance.  It's alright, Mafuyu-chan!  Mafuyu-chan, you're cute enough without the make up!  Rather, I would hide the cosmetics and show off your natural beauty Mafuyu- chan, which is even better!"

"Ah, thank you…"

"Ken!  Stop flirting with my little sister in front of me!"

　Mafuyu-chan shrank and blushed at my words, while Minatsu shouted at me.  It's the same as usual.  I sighed, I put my hand on Minatsu who was sitting next to me.

"Yes… Yes.  Jealous Minatsu…  It's perfectly charming!"

"No, No, I'm not jealous!"

"Minatsu, if we marry, Mafuyu will become my sister in law and when you think about it that's a great charm―"

"Hey what about my charm!"

　Minatsu became really angry… it was cute for her.  Even with jealousy …

"I'm not jealous!"

"Oh! We now have telepathy!  My goal is near!"

"That's scary!  To get something like that from you is really scary!  To get that impression is also really scary!"

"That impression? … Well it was inevitable.  I guess I should leave it at that.  Shy-san♪"

"I'm going to kill him…"

　I shivered at Minatsu's words, while Mafuyu frantically tried to calm her down.

　Well now, we've precisely gathered all the Student Council Members today.

I see that I am surrounded by 4 individual bishoujos, with me alone, I'm pleased to say.

"Yess, it's a celebration of my Harem!  I get to watch this scene unfold.  Its great I worked hard at getting into the Student Council."

　With my words, Chizuru-san said "That reminds me" and put down her homework.

"Ki-kun got in using the "Excellence Method" … Although it doesn't look like it."

"I agreeー.  This guy, when you look at him he's nothing more than a lovestruck idiot.ー"

　Minatsu had the same thought, while Mafuyu-chan giggled.

　I attempted to reply, but Kaichou placed her snack on the desk.

"I say it's a terrible thing but, in spite of it the elections for the Student Council are utterly ridiculous! The popularity contest is ridiculous, but the excellence 
method is also, when they don't assess the top scorer in the year based on mental state!"

　Kaichou had already often said her complaints about the system.  Besides that I already have a standard reply to her complaints.

"I think this system is the best."

　The selection system of our School's Student Council Members is very different from other schools.

　First, basically there is an absolute "Popularity Contest" for the election of members.  However, this always brings in cute girls. So, it's really just a beauty pageant.

　Beautiful women are yearned for by both men and women. Beautiful men however, they provoke animosity among the other men.  Then obviously a cute girl wins by default.

　The system, it's actually quite sensible.  Though it may be a choice for appearance, and really it's campaigning for nothing, the students live life everyday purely, just to vote for someone they admire.  

　When it comes to it, the "Students of Yearning", they unexpectedly listen exactly to what the Student Council says.  Besides… frankly, it's common knowledge how anyone would not actually do work in the Student Council.  Selections based on appearance, it was a big problem. They only had charisma.  

　As a consequence, the Student Council was filled with Bishoujos.

Due to that, it became a meeting ground. Then a new method came up, the "Excellence Method".  The person in the year with the best grades… from the end of year tests、if that person's wish was to get into the Student Council, it was possible to do so.  It was made in order so an excellent person could get in, without worrying about outward appearances… Generally, the people who put the effort into studying, they weren't interested.

　But, because of this hope of taking the top students at the end of the year… I, Sugisaki Ken, took this chance. It was a simple reason. It's…

"But, Ken did well.  It wasn't all about power."

　I looked at Minatsu whose eyes shined with amazement.  Kaichou sighed and muttered, "Really".

"It was for getting me into the "Bishoujo Community", anything really.  Yes.  Even if I had the lowest grades in the Entrance Exams, a year ago I became obsessed with getting to the top, but it was a piece of cake though."

"… Ah, something Mafuyu thinks is that Sugisaki-sempai could be a very humble guy…"

"Mafuyu!  That's an extreme delusion!  To admire someone like Ken is a total delusion!"

　Minatsu said that with extreme rudeness.

"My intelligence is a fact, Minatsu."

"You have impure motives!  Your enrollment in the Student Council and you've tried to tie us up with your feelings…"

"Even politicians, problems with women is probably likely to become a scandal right? A person, with risqué material more or less, it's easier with people with higher standing.  I, at middle age, with my hands up female high school girl's skirts, peeking to feed my hungry intentions and confirming my forgotten dignity."

"It's difficult to pull and reveal skirts!"

　I was affected by Minatsu's words, and even Kaichou joined in with a "Yeah!" damn it.

"To get in because of grades, it's odd!  Also because of that, Sugisaki resembles a problem child…"

"It's difficult to believe that everyone in the Student Council is in love with me…"

"Not a single person is in love with you!"

"Ehh?!"

"What a surprise! You are too overconfident in yourself!"

"No…It can't be… What about that night with you Kaichou…"

"What night with me?!"

"Ehhhh?!"

"I'm surprised you are talking about this, stop saying things…"

"Can't be… Kaichou. Well then, perhaps that night was not what I was thinking…"

"That's what I have been saying."

　Kaichou withdrew into herself and searched her memories.

　Everyone in the group watched attentively, and I said a celebratory phrase to myself.

"That night, Kaichou, you had many intense dreams and you desired me, is it not?!"

"Here is a criminal wannabe! A stalker in the making!"

"That's mean!  Why would you toy with my pure heart like that?!"

"But you are also toying with my emotions!"

　Kaichou became tired of shouting and sat down to take a breath.  It was expected with Kaichou having a small build, and little strength.  For just a minute, the argument 
died, and was completely gone.

　Seeing the disheveled state of affairs, Chizuru-san closed her notebook and started talking.

"Ki-kun. I don't particularly dislike you, but honestly don't you think it would be better to conduct yourself in a more intelligent way?  Even if you are creating a harem, you shouldn't be declaring it, but sincerely making favorable circumstances, that's the easier road."

"Hmmm… Chizuru-san's idea is reasonable… But, smoothing over things like this, however!  My figure is full of desire, and that's the truth! For myself, its unskillful nonsense!  Now, I'm devoted to my sexual desire!"

"Your heart is severely rotten."

　I looked at Minatsu who gave me a cold look. Ah, the ‘tsun' period.

　My life is based on the bible of Galge… no, it's actually about Eroge (I want age limits on them though) it appears. You don't start a harem, it's expected that the character has a steady process, and frankly the character is in the best place. That sort of place should have significance, and right now I'm in a very blessed place. 

"Fufufu…  One by one in succession, the student council members will fall dere under my influence…"

"I have to say something about your influence…"

　Mafuyu-chan made a wry smile.

"Well, if you aren't dere, I'd quickly change plans to make you dere by disgrace―"

"That's a refreshing level of heresy, you bastard."

　It appears that Minatsu's tsun meter has swung back yet again.

　I waved my finger at her "Tsk, Tsk, Tsk".

"It's alright , Minatsu. Think about it... but frankly I have a system for this kind of story, instead of raising everyone's relationship points steadily, in my style I'll 
raise them "one chapter at a time"."

"What?"

"It isn't in just Galges, it appears they are school dramas also right?　The teacher helps students with their problems, and gradually goes through the whole class. And in the last part of the story, all the students in his class say their thanks, and in that sense it's a harem ending."

"You're contaminating the mood of a school drama with that last part."

"Yes…  But I will start with the person who is most favorable to me, Mafuyu-chan, then Kaichou, then Minatsu, and then Chizuru-san, gradually taking problems that get harder in difficulty, and then magically, everyone loves me…"

"Whatever, I think Chizuru-san is easier to capture than me, it's a bit annoying."

"Mafuyu… Why am I the first target…?"

　Mafuyu trembled. With excitement I hope.

　Kaichou, who was probably still tired, of course started attacking my idea.

"Why am I after Mafuyu-chan?! Where did you get that thought?!"

"Eh? Because Kaichou…it's already too late, you've already reached the second stage right?  For example when I walk with another Bishoujo, you get upset at the situation 
right?"

"When you walk with another girl Sugisaki, I quickly contact the police, so they can protect her!"

"Kaichou is jealous."

"Aaah, Sugisaki I'm going to send you to the cruelest bad ending!"

　Kaichou's eyes were very dark. It was like a Japanese chestnut kind of color, she averted her eyes.

　Since no one went to support her, I decided to change the subject.

"But, I fear the worst end is what you had said at the beginningー"

"? What?  What are you saying?"

"Becoming a boring person… in short, this blessed environment, it seems as if it's becoming less blessed, I think. This chapter in my life, the me right now… has been in the student council for a month now, this harem situation I can't help but think this was enjoyable. Someday… someday, if I may become used to all the circumstances like this, I think."

"Ah. Well, I understand, I guess."

　Unusually, Kaichou agreed with my idea. Also, a sigh.

"As such, it could go one way or another if one is careful with it. It's the same with your rank in life.  With a person's affluence in life, if their income falls, their standard of life would stay the same."

"Again, being bishoujo loli schoolgirl is a different experience to begin with."

"I was out of it. I like a fatherly type of management however. For better or worse, or rather an intense ebbing and flowing rate of income."

"I see. Because of that Kaichou, money still can't stop a teenage youth's hobby…"

"Sugisaki, I'm confused!  What hobby?!  Also I'm not a wicked woman!"

"Besides, a characteristic of slapping men's cheeks with a wad of money, that has to change…"

"I'm a noble person!  Say what you want, but let's not go that far!"

"Now in poverty, uniquely, ones purpose in life would be to pick up home invading ants with their limbs…"

"I am not a dark woman!  Money isn't a problem, it's not!"

　Kaichou used up all her energy shouting and became tired… Messing around with a senior of this school has very unusual effects.

　However, if I remember correctly, when I became the top student, I remember when I was at the bottom rank and had to go back to get the top rank.  In other words, I can 
say with confidence I was a boring human.

　Happiness was right there, I just had to look inside. I wanted to get better, to get higher; I still wanted to get higher. But one day I reached a limit… I started to stagnate, and that guy felt this boring world, and perhaps became a "Boring Human"。

　But…

"Well, Mafuyu, I don't want it to happen either… But, how would I, in that case, understand what went wrong?"

　Mafuyu-chan looked dejected. I agree though. It's natural for a human to seek the top, and it's difficult to keep in check. Chizuru-san, "Finally I understand, it's like reaching the highest mental height you can achieve", and what she says is quite plausible.

"Yeah, something like that is boring."

　Minatsu was a bit annoyed… but it was certainly boring. Might as well… while I am young, I might as well realize something has opened in my heart, I want to be smiling forever.

　Chizuru-san continued on.

"Well, some people… the people we call ‘winners', they rapidly keep going higher. Generally most of us, would compromise somewhere, and be relatively happy."

"Relatively happy…Hmmm"

　I, after all will probably be buried in a mediocre place.

　I'll work in a major, but not large, company.

　I'll probably be above average in salary.

　Probably an office job.

　If I keep working at it, I'll probably become a section chief.

　The world wouldn't change much with work.

　I'll disappear frequently.

　In that environment courage and willpower sneak away, oh well, with each day that passes.

　………………

"That's no good."

"Eh?"

　I muttered to myself, everyone could see. I received everyone's look… and, I abandoned all those thoughts and stood up!


"I'll create a Bishoujo Harem!"
My loud declaration! 
    


Minatsu said shockingly, "And, he says he's going to become Pirate King…".The other members looked at me and said something about my circumstances, "Again.", nevertheless I will continue on.

"Even if I compromise, I'll only compromise for a high place! The Bishoujos shall serve me, someday, I can say from the place I rise to ‘Ah, they are getting boring', that 
will be my compromise!"

"I see. For the time being I'll just let that go until I leave.  I'd like to leave it at that."

　Chizuru-san for some reason smiled.  Oh, did the points go up? As usual, I caught that wasn't the aim by the way.

Minatsu smiled and said, "Aside from harems, it's not a bad stance."  

Mafuyu-chan then softly smiled and said, "I have the impression that…it's better than being worried, but it would be nice if we keep trying to go higher."

　Then, Kaichou started talking…

"Ehh, you guys do you your best, I'm too tired"

　Useless person.

　I understand my situation in life, I'll aim higher, and it's relatively too late to compromise now.

　The student council chief threw the expectations of her post away.

　She stuffed her cheeks with crunchy snack food, and her face was filled with happiness.

　……….. Well, good enough.

　If she's happy I'm okay with that. Simple, simple.

　Kaichou ends up eating candy (Still Chizuru-san keeps bringing them…) and her cheeks puffed up with a cute burp, I announce my satisfaction.

"I say, we should disband for today."

"………."

　Everyone thought about being a useless member of society.

　Well, I eventually broke it up however, because of that.

　……Well now, I gradually started the work we didn't do.

"… Hey, we left Sugisaki in the Student Council room."

　Kurimu met with the other Student Council members at the gate and turned towards them, and bitterly smiled. The girls frowned though, while smiling。

　Minatsu's shoulder started to make a sound.

"Really, we should go support him. … We spent a long time chatting, and doing all the Student Council's duties with just himself alone, it shouldn't be like that…"

"Well, Mafuyu, do you like Sugisaki-sempai?"
　
Mafuyu's words made everyone breathe a sigh, and, Kurimu started talking to the members.

"At school, no one really hates him. Really… if he wasn't talking about that harem of his, he'd have a girlfriend, I guess he's too simple…"

"That's true, Aka-chan. Isn't Ki-kun a wonderful person?"

"Hey, I didn't say that Chizuru-san! "
　
Kurimu naturally became impatient with Chizuru, while Minatsu and Mafuyu laughed a little… But everyone understood.  Everyone, certainly, had some sort of good feelings 
towards Sugisaki Ken.  Everyone tried to suppress it except… none other than Sugisaki Ken himself.

　He emphasized his harem, but he was a special individual, making friends where people would defend against it as a noble characteristic.  However despite all that, he truly loved the Student Council members from the bottom of his heart, and they were embarrassed by his support. They were embarrassed…

　Chizuru looked up at the only person in the Student Council room and muttered,

"He's always talking about his harem. But he… He is our central pillar."

"Central pillar?"

"Yes.  After all this, what else is there to call him, all of us, I think it's just a little bit beyond us. A scar, in other words."

　Chizuru finished talking, and Kurimu, Minatsu, and Mafuyu's facial expression changed into muttering. They were certain, each of them had private petty problems that they 
had. They never talked about it with each other; of course Sugisaki Ken knew as well but didn't care.

　Chizuru continued on.

"But, we just chat in the Student Council Room, and it helps. It's very fun in there.  Even if it's fake… it's like the warmth of family members around a dinner table in that room.  And it's created, arguably, by Ki-kun. Therefore… he is our central pillar. The fact that he is the Student Council's central pillar, in addition to, he's also the central pillar to our whole school."

　Following Chizuru's words, Kurimu turned to look at the Student Council room.

"No.  I say he is more like the role of the teacher in the school drama"

"It's different, he doesn't help us with our problems, and he gives us a place to rest easily however."

"Well, Mafuyu is very, very thankful."

　After Mafuyu's words, everyone started laughing. It seems that everyone was feeling better. Another thing to say is, how much business everyday that turns up in the Student Council room to finish, and of course Sugisaki turns it into a place to relax.

　Kurimu said, "Well then.", and settled the subject.

"Let's head home!"

"B-But, is it really alright? I―"

"It's alright. I mean, this is what Sugisaki wanted, so don't think about it. If that's the case, we have to respect his will."

"………"

"Well, instead, if something is bothering Sugisaki、we should direct our full energy into helping him."

"Kaichou-san…"

　Mafuyu was moved so much by  Kaichou her eyes became cloudy. And continued on with a , "But…"

"But, we are not going to date him, Kaichou-san."

"That's a different story. That's some serious cheating…"

　An immeadiate reply. 

　Kurimu put an end to the discussion saying, "Then, see you tomorrow", and ran off. The members parted saying farewells to each other and headed back home. 

　Amongst the twilight, Kurimu whispered as if it was to Sugisaki himself.

"Being a boring human, it's not bad at all…"

　If you consider gathering together people who think their life is boring, maybe, on the contrary it could break out into something fun.

　Hekiyou Private Academy Student Council.

　Every day, boring people have fun conversations there.
