BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28
The first thing that entered my vision field when I woke up was Karen’s face .
“...Morning . ”
“...Morning . ”
As soon she realized I woke up, Karen greeted me . I replied with the same word while feeling slightly confused . I mean, what kind of posture am I taking?
I tried checking my current situation then I sensed a soft feeling in the back of my head .
What’s that? I kept laying down and stretched my hand to the place that felt soft to finally recognize that it was her thigh .
My head was on top of Karen’s lap .
Is this the so called Lap-pillow? Noticing my condition, I remained touching Karen’s thigh and feeling impressed . Who thought that the time when I get to have a lap-pillow from my own sister would come? I kept on enjoying her thigh while being moved .
“How long are planning on touching my legs? Rather, if you woke up then get off already, my legs are feeling numb . ”
Karen looked down at me with her chilly eyes .
I wanted to enjoy that feeling a bit longer, but since things won’t turn out good if I make her angry I decided to deplorably draw back .
“How long was I sleeping . ”
“Only a few minutes . ”
Few minutes, huh . Last time I was out for a few hours . I guess it’s all thanks to the new 【mental resistance】skill . I got my hand on something handy .
“Well then, tell me now . ”
Karen broke the ice all of a sudden .
“About what?”
“About that strange ability . ”
I finally understood what she was asking for . My skills .
“Ah, that... that was a magic trick . ”
“Stop joking around . There’s no way you could defeat a dragon with a magic trick . ”
I know right . That’s what I thought too .
Getting pressed for an answer, I pondered about a good excuse . Honestly, I don’t think I can hide it anymore . Not after showing her the earlier fight .
“...... well, I guess I’ll have to speak honestly . ”
I judged that it was meaningless to keep bringing up excuses and decided to tell her the truth .
“Karen, What I’m about to tell you is all true . Listen to me well . ”
“Okay . ”
Karen nodded to my words and I began explaining the truth behind my ability .
The fact that my class was summoned to another word, the fact that I was the only one left, what I did until today, I talked about everything . Karen was startled after I showed her Rouga and some magic skills, though she still heard me out until the end .
Karen remained silent while closing her eyes after I finished my explanation .
“This is kinda, unfair . ”
That was what she said in a gentle tone .
“Unfair?”
“It’s unfair for you alone to hold such a powerful ability . ”
Um, even if you say so...
“I want it too . ”
“You mean, the skills?”
“Yes, you can do it right?”
Um, you’re making it seem so simple .
My skills are something I acquired after a long time of efforts and experience . If she doesn’t have the 【super growth】skill like I do, it will take her forever to make it to this point .
“......I will think about a way later . ”
“Thanks . ”
Following my unclear reply, this time it was my turn to ask Karen .
“Come to think of it, what were you doing in such a deserted place?”
Karen made an unpleasant expression and avoided to look at me .
Was it something that she didn’t want me to know?
I started holding doubts and pointed to the three girls fainting near us .
“Are those your friends?”
“Not at all . ”
Karen denied immediately .
Judging from her reaction, something must have happened here .
“Karen, don’t tell me you’re gonna hide what happened here after making me talk about my secret . ”
I asked Karen with a leering grin .
Although, no matter what I do, I don’t think she will talk as long as she doesn’t want .
“...... I get . ”
Or maybe she will .
After that, I knew about the whole story of her getting teased . I knew about everything she went through, from the malicious harassment she kept receiving until the fact that she was about to get her hair cut today .
I kept quiet until she was done, then opened my mouth .
“I need to speak with those three for a while . ”
They’ve got some nerves to make a move on my little sister .
Let’s make them regret what they’ve done until now .
I walked towards the three fainting girls .
“Wait . ”
Karen seized my hand .
“This is my problem . This time I will be the one to put an end to it . So don’t do anything . ”
I fell on thoughts while standing at my place and gazing at Karen who just refused my help .
“I get it . I won’t do anything for now . ”
If she insisting this far then there’s no need to move on my own will . Well, even if something was to happen to her then I won’t go easy .
As I was making my determination, the three girls who were asleep started moving .
“U... uunn . ”
“Where am... I?”
“What were we doing here again?”
They got up while trying to recall why they were sleeping here .
I called the three of them to make sure that their memories were erased .
“How are feeling? Do you have an idea about why you were fighting here?”
“Eh, what do you mean by fainting?”
One of them started to talk, but halted her words once she saw my face . A few moments later, the three of them were fixing their gaze at me without saying anything . What the heck is going on?
“Um, excuse me!”
As the three girls were looking at me like they’ve seen something odd, one of them stepped forth and called to me .
“W-What is your name?”
“... huh?”
I unintentionally let out a weird sound after hearing her unexpected question .
“Not faire! Me too!”
“Um! What is your hobby?”
Following the first girl, the other two approached and asked me similar questions .
Their face was dyed in light red and they looked at me as if they were seeing a famous actor .
I got perplexed by their heavy questions attack .
“Don’t get too close to someone else’s elder brother . ”
Karen pulled my cuff and drawed me near her .
“Eh? He’s you brother?”
“C’mon, you could’ve told us about it sooner . ”
“Why didn’t you introduce him to us?”

Knowing that I was her elder brother, the three girls turned their attack towards Karen this time . She tried to ignore them for a while, but they gradually got annoying making her let out sigh and beckon them to where she was standing .
“Come over here . ”
They obeyed to her order and then the four of them began whispering to each other .
“You’re brother...... no...”
“... listen... please!...... that’s not... . . ah...”
“Yes... yes...”
“Plea......I will do whatev......... I get it...”
“In that c-......knees... . The entire school... . Eel down...! Why no...... tell......”
“Ok......don’t tell me......”
“Easy... . I can......”
“Yes... do......”
That’s was roughly what I was able to hear . I heard some weird words in their conversation though .
what’s that about kneeling? What’s that girl trying to do?
After waiting for a short while, it looked like they came to a compromise and the three girls parted away from Karen .
“later, Kamiya-san . ”
“Next time tell me about your brother!”
“It’s a promise . ”
“I get it, I get it . ”
Karen saw them off with a worn out face . Were those words I heard in their conversation just my imagination? I asked Karen while gazing at the three girls who left in an elated spirit .
“So they’re your friends after all?”
“No... maybe...”
She was about to deny instantly, but this time she finished her words ambiguously after remembering their earlier reaction .
I let out a giggle as I saw Karen’s dazed expression .
“So you made up with them . Good for you . ”
“Not sure if I’d call that making up . ”
She’s no honest . That was what I thought when I saw her face .
“We should go too, Karen . ”
“...... right . ”
Karen and I walked together back home .
She held my cuff the entire way, but I didn’t mind it and kept walking . Whenever I stole some glances at her face she looked kinda embarrassed, however she didn’t let go of me all the way .

Heroine frame
“Kamiya-kun . ”
“What’s up with that gloomy face, Kamaishi?”
“Recently, I’m not getting a chance to show up . I am the heroine, right?”
“I feel like I was once told the same thing from someone . Well, you’re not wrong about being the heroine, but Karen is close to a heroine as well . ”
“Am I going to get a turn next time?”
“Next time will introduce a new character so I don’t think so . ”
“Realy?! No way~ doesn’t that mean I will have less time to show up~”
“Well, even Karen won’t be getting a turn at that time so you’re both the same . ”
