Chapter 5-Decisive Battle of RZK <Battle of Camlann>

In this school, there is a group called the RZK-Society. It is a kind of unofficial organization that is not even recognized by the student council or the school. By the way, the name RZK-Society stands for R (Riajuu) Z (Zettai) K (Kiru) Society. [TLN: RZK in english stands for normie, definitely, kill]

They held meetings for events that couples might enjoy, such as after the cultural festival or Christmas and would get together and create a ruckus. This group is a collection of people who weren’t chosen by the goddess of love and are jealous of those who were chosen and became couples. They represented all the jealousy in the world. What a pathetic bunch. Well, I was one of them.

And I was surrounded by people wearing jet-black masks (bought at a hundred-yen store during Halloween) and jet-black robes (a big garbage bag with holes cut in it that allowed them to stick out their heads and arms).

“I think you know why I called you here, Mordred.”

“I understand, but it’s pointless… Arthurー”

The others gathered around me as the man called Arthur spoke. By the way, “Mordred” was my code name. Actually, it was my suggestion that we call each other by code names, and it was approved brilliantly. They were all boys, so they liked this kind of stuff.

“Look… those outfits… Those idiots are doing it again… Aren’t they embarrassed?”

“Don’t they know that’s the reason why they can’t get a girlfriend…?”

“I’m sorry, but we’re having a very important conference right now, so please don’t interrupt us!”

The girls were pointing at us from a distance, and Arthur warned them, half crying, then the girls left, apparently not wanting to get involved with us. Arthur coughed to clear his throat and looked at me.

“I’m going to start the round table discussion to decide your fate. Answer me truthfully without any lies.”

“Ah, I swear to speak only the truth with no lies.”

I stiffened a little when I heard Arthur say “round table.” Of course there was no such thing as a round table, because we were behind the gym. A round table is a meeting to determine the innocence or guilt of those who had violated the rules. By the way, one of the rules is that if you get a girlfriend, you can’t complain, no matter what they do to you. At the very least, there was nothing I could do but answer the questions honestly and hope that the sentence would be lessened.

“I heard you went home with a girl yesterday, is that true?

“Yes, that’s true. Girls’ rooms are so stimulating, aren’t they? It doesn’t really smell that nice, but it was fun.”

““Guilty!! Guilty!!””

Well, I went to Beni’s house yesterday. That’s where we ended up going out, although it was fake. I wonder if I can invite her to my room this time. But we’re just pretending to be a couple. I think she would still be very wary of me.

“Is it true that you went to school with a girl today?”

“Yeah, I did. She told me that she was too embarrassed to call me out when we met up, isn’t she super cute?”

“”Guilty!! Guilty!!“”

It was the best morning of my life. I had no idea that going to school with a girl could be so exciting, I thought it was only possible in the realm of romcom mangas and light novels. Once again, I think Beni is really cute in her ordinary mode. But she’s also cute when she’s in full chuuni mode. I’m more than happy to continue this every day starting tomorrow rather than being reincarnated into another world and getting a cheat skill. While thinking about this, the guys who were cheering “guilty” were getting louder and louder…

“Gununu, Is it true that you were eating a girl’s homemade bento for lunch today?”

“Oh, she’s really a very good cook! Maybe I should ask her to make some sweets for me next time.”

“”Guilty!! Guilty!!“”

The food was really delicious, and I was impressed that she remembered the old days. As I was chewing on my happiness, I felt the killing intent from the guys around me increase. Oh, seriously, why is that?

“It’s decided… you’re guilty. You will be punished with the heaviest sentence. To be more specific, we’re going to catch you, take an embarrassing picture of you, and send it to Tanaka-san!”

“Why? I just told you the truth.”

“Are you crazy? Honesty isn’t enough, we hate normies to death! What you were saying is cursed words for us. Do you understand the pain in the hearts of virgins? Everyone, engage, let’s purge this traitor!”

A group of jealous masked men tried to attack me and I immediately tried to escape. Unfortunately for them, I’m always training my body to deal with being summoned to another world. While I can’t beat the athletic clubs, my physical ability is better than an average high school student.

I tried to make a breakthrough against the spreading siege. They wouldn’t be chasing me if I went outside, let alone inside the school. It’s embarrassing to walk around the streets dressed like that.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t let you get through here…”

My carelessness caught me off guard once I had gotten rid of the RZK members. A jet-black masked man appeared suddenly in front of me to block my path. He was holding a wooden sword in his hand.

“Okita… What are you doing here?”

“Arthur hired me to do it. Also, call me Lancelot from now on.”

I couldn’t see his face, but I knew his identity from his voice. But why Okita? This guy was pretty good at kendo, and was pretty popular in the club. A junior asked me for advice regarding her confession, so I asked this guy and he told me, “Hehー sorry. I can only get excited with girls around 10 years old or younger.” After that, she stopped asking me for love advice immediately. but she probably confessed her love without my knowledge. Why is Okita such a popular guy with these people? Did this guy fall in love with Beni? She’s a beautiful girl if you don’t know her true nature… Well, I personally think she’s prettier in her true self.

“You shouldn’t have any reason to help these guys… Don’t tell me…”

“Good observation. There’ll be a new… character for the Halloween update…”

No, it was totally different. It had nothing to do with Beni at all. He showed me the iTunes card that Arthur probably gave him. So it was all for the sake of gacha. As expected of Okita. I’m not going to deny his way of life… I mean, friendship or whatever, he’ll cut it down for the sake of gacha… Living your life for something non-negotiable is not a bad way of life. Rather, it’s cool!
