I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo - Chapter 757: Fall in love

Shishio couldn’t be blamed for thinking so since he knew what kind of damage he had done to Hayama, but even so, this guy still came to him.

Before the cultural festival, while he didn’t want to hear it, he happened to listen to the conversation between Haruno and Hayama. He knew that Hayama had fallen in love with Haruno. However, with Hayama’s personality, he knew that it was impossible for Haruno to fall for Hayama, especially when Hayama had abandoned Yukinoshita.

Even if Hayama seemed perfect for a man for most younger girls, especially for having a handsome face, a good personality, and a good brain, he had abandoned his childhood friend, so he could have a comfortable life.

For a partner in life, it definitely wasn’t the trait that was sought after by Haruno.

After all, in the future, if they were faced with a similar situation, he could also be able to abandon Haruno, so he could have a comfortable life.

A man who couldn’t be relied on, couldn’t lead their woman, and couldn’t protect their woman definitely wasn’t the man that was sought by Haruno.

No, most women would also think so.

This was also the case with the current situation.

It was also why Shishio lost his respect for Hayama.

Even though Hayama knew that Shishio had damaged his pride, fought, and stolen the woman he loved, he still came to rely on Shishio, doing many wonders whether he had a taste for NTR.

Shishio couldn’t understand Hayama, but this guy wasn’t a man. Somehow, he could imagine that even if he slept with Hayama’s wife and mother in the future, this guy could still maintain a bright smile when he faced him. He wasn’t sure whether this was amazing or not, but he couldn’t do what Hayama did.

Even Yukinoshita also looked weirdly at Hayama, feeling strange. She glanced at Shishio, who also felt confused before she shook her head. She knew that her sister had been eaten by Shishio, so she wondered what kind of expression Hayame would show when he knew it. Somehow, it made her happy and chuckle for some reason.

Her sudden chuckle stunned everyone since, without a doubt, her chuckle was beautiful.

“??”

She noticed that everyone was looking at her, but she calmly smiled. “Sorry, I just thought something funny.”

“??”

Hayama wasn’t sure, but he felt that this chuckle was aimed at him. However, it didn’t really matter since he had something to discuss with the service club. No, it should be his friend who had something to discuss with the service club, and he was just accompanying his friend, but even so, he hoped that the service club didn’t help his friend since he was afraid the request of his friend would cause a crack on the relationship of everyone.

“Can we help you?” Yukinoshita asked.

“He needed help with something, so I brought him here.” Hayama was quite awkward for some reason.

Tobe looked around before he looked at Shishio fiercely. He was like a bull who saw a red color. He just wanted to be charged going forward and crashed into the wall before he bled profusely.

If Hayama wasn’t on his side, he might have become even more reckless.

“???”

Tobe took a deep breath before he widened his legs and bowed his head deeply.

“Shishio-sensei, please teach me about love!”

“……..”

Suddenly, the clubroom fell into silence.

—

“So, you want to learn about love?’

“Yes, Sensei!”

“…stop calling me, Sensei.”

“Yes, Sen— I mean, Oga-kun!”

“………”

As Tobe was forced to calm down, they sat face to face, but even so, Tobe was looking at Shishio respectfully.

However, everyone was speechless by Tobe’s action since they could even see Tobe’s eyes burning in flame. They wanted to slap their foreheads, feeling quite dumbfounded by his action.

Shishio sighed, but he asked, “Did you fall in love with someone?”

“Ah, um…” Tobe blushed and nodded shyly.

“I see…” Shishio nodded, but he didn’t feel curious. “There is one thing that you have to do if you want to make her fall for you.”

“Oh? What is it?” Tobe quickly asked in excitement.

Hikigaya, who acted like he wasn’t interested, also perked his ear.

Hayama, who showed an awkward smile, also listened carefully, even if his expression didn’t say so.

Yukinoshita and Yui also looked at Shishio curiously.

Even if they didn’t want to admit it and his womanizer hobby wasn’t good, they had to say if one wanted to learn who was the best teacher at love, then without a doubt, it was Shishio.

“Don’t put her on the pedestal.”

“…don’t put her on the pedestal…?” Tobe was confused. “What do you mean?”

The rest was confused, but Yukinoshita and Yui nodded at Shishio’s words.

“When you fall in love with someone, you will subconsciously beautify her. Whether it is her appearance, laughter, or when she eats, or even when she picks up her nose…”

“….”

“You will think that everything about her is so beautiful. You will worship her as the gorgeous being in this world.”

“…is that not okay?” Tobe asked curiously.

After all, this was how it should be, right?

It was normal for a man to worship a beautiful girl, especially the one they loved. They would try to be careful and try not to anger them. They would also try to please them as much as they could since they wanted to make their girl happy, right?

This was a normal thing, right?

As Tobe said, his reasoning, Hayama and Hikigaya nodded since this was probably how they felt.

However, unexpectedly, Shishio, Yui, and Yukinoshita shook their heads.

“If you do that, she will think you’re annoying.”

“In her eyes, you’re disgusting.”

The former was Yui, and the latter was Yukinoshita.

Unlike Yui, Yukinoshita didn’t have mercy.

“Re-Really?”

Hearing the words of two girls, Tobe panicked.

“A girl is also a normal human. Even if they’re beautiful, it is impossible for them to be as perfect as you have imagined. They’re not goddesses, after all. They’re not perfect beings. Naturally, they have a lot of flaws. Instead of treating her like they’re a goddess, you should treat her normally like your friend. Laugh together, be there when she needs you the most, and be slightly bolder with your action without telling her with words that you love her.”

“……”

All of them fell in silence and thought that as expected of Shishio.

“Wait! I shouldn’t say that I like her?” Tobe was confused.

“If she asks you, then you should tell her your feelings, but if she doesn’t, you don’t need to do so. You only need to be bold with your actions. For example, holding hands, hugging, or kissing is even okay, depending on the situation.

“If your feelings are mutual, then confessing is a good thing. However, is your feeling mutual?”

“….I am not sure.” Tobe lacked confidence.

“Then, don’t be in a hurry. You should learn more about her. Maybe, she isn’t as perfect as you imagine, and once you learn more about her, you might realize that you don’t love her as much as you think.”

Tobe wanted to refute that he loved this girl so much that he couldn’t get her out of his head, but Shishio’s words were like a sage, and he didn’t have anything to refute.

“We, a man, have an advantage in choosing a girl. You can choose as much a girl as you want to see whether he is suitable to become your partner in life and the mother of your children. Girls don’t have that advantage. They can only wait for their prince in the white horse to come. Naturally, some of them are bolder and will approach the man she loves, but it doesn’t work in many cases, right?”

Shishio looked at Hayama, and everyone also did so.

Hayama showed an awkward expression since Shishio’s words reminded them of their acquaintance.

Yumiko Miura.

Everyone was clear that she had a feeling toward Hayama, but he had never said anything and just put her by his side, so he could stop the advance of the other girls.

Not only a man who had unrequited love, but a woman also could have unrequited love.

“But well, you know? This might seem weird to me to say this, but what you need to do is to be confident and tell her that she is the only one after you have learned all of her everything, whether it is good or bad points, but even so, I have to say gaining this confidence might be the most difficult thing, so for now, you should improve yourself.”

“I need to Improve myself?” Tobe asked in confusion while pointing his finger at himself.

“Many might say to be yourself, but I disagree. What you need to do is to be the better of yourself. You keep learning, so you can become a better man. Studying, working out, manners, and many others. When you become better, even if you don’t do anything, the women will approach you. Lastly…”

“Lastly?”

“You should sharpen your weapon.”

“My weapon?”

“You have a cheerful persona. You should use that to your advantage since not many people can be as cheerful as you.”

“Oh!”

Hikigaya rolled his eyes, wondering whether Shishio had tried to diss him, but he also had a lot of weapons, such as his sharp words, which were enough to make a little kid cry, and also dead fish eyes, which were enough to make people think that he was a zombie.

‘Wait! Is that an advantage?’

Hikigaya fell into a dilemma.

“Oh! Now, I feel so confident!” Tobe screamed in excitement as if he had just got a new power. He was like a main protagonist who had just finished a training arc.

“Oh, right, I almost forgot. There is one more.”

“What is it?”

Shishio’s words were like a bible for him, so Tobe listened carefully.

“Don’t be afraid of rejection.”

“…don’t be afraid of rejection?”

“Being rejected is a normal thing. While many might be sad and just confused, you should use this experience to grow even more. You should question yourself, why you’re rejected, and how you can become better. Don’t stop thinking about growing since this experience will make you able to get a better girl in the future.

“The best revenge for the girl that has rejected you is to have a better life. Life to the fullest. Instead of staying in depression about the girl that has rejected you. It isn’t worth it.”

“Thank you, Oga-kun!”

Tobe was crying and felt that Shishio was even kinder than his parents at that moment.

Still, everyone also nodded since, from Shishio’s words, they learned a lot of things.

“By the way, who did you fall in love with?” Yui asked curiously.

“Ah, it’s Ebina!” Tobe said excitedly, but suddenly everyone fell into silence, and this silence made him uncomfortable.

“……”

Hikigaya, Yukinoshita, and Yui looked at Tobe in pity.

“Sorry, she is my woman, Tobe-senpai,” Shishio said with a smile.

“……”

Tobe crumbled before he turned into dust.

However, the positive thing was that Tobe should have gained an experience that next time, he should check whether the girls he had crushed had a partner or not, right?
