Tenya silently deactivated the Mind Reading skill. There was no need to eavesdrop on such terrible thoughts.
"Hayato, you actually did something so stupid."
"Oh my god! And he actually lost to Tobe!"
"That's just too lame!"
Yumiko remembered that she had only just dozed off. Unexpectedly after waking up, she heard such an explosive news.
The perfect handsome guy filter she had for Hayato in her heart instantly shattered.
"No, it's not like that, Yumiko!"
Hayato quickly tried to explain.
He didn't know why he had done such a foolish thing either.
"Well, well~ Don't be a sore loser, Hayato!"
"This is the only time I've ever won against you!"
For Tobe, this was something he could brag about for a lifetime.
"Tobe is the attacker, Hayama is the receiver!"
"What a fresh combination!"
"I wholeheartedly support it!"
Ebina started to go crazy.
Megumi complained, "Kuchiki-san, isn't the replaced memory a bit too outrageous?"
"Terrifying...!"
"Fortunately, I didn't accept the memory replacement!"
Yui and Alisa exchanged glances, both feeling lucky to have escaped a disaster.
"Cough cough!"
Rukia said, "Don't mind these details!"
"As long as the memories related to the supernatural can be forgotten, it is acceptable for the person involved to pay a small price!"
Rukia looked embarrassed. She clearly knew how outrageous the randomly filled-in memories could be.
...
The first night of the training camp.
There was the usual separation of male and female rooms.
Each room had five people and the environment could be considered comfortable.
The room Tenya was in included Hayato, Tobe, Hachiman, and Saika.
"Since we're all in the same room by chance, how about we have a water release ninjutsu competition?"
Perhaps because this was the only competition where he had a victory against Hayato in his memory, Tobe felt an unprecedented sense of confidence.
"I refuse!"
Hayato's face was gloomy, and he sternly refused.
This unbearable memory would become a core memory that he would never forget in his life.
"Haha! Hayato, you're scared, aren't you?"
"Then Hachiman and Totsuka, do you want to participate?"
Tobe shifted his target towards the other two.
"Um, I'm not used to showing my... you know... Ugh~" Saika covered his face shyly.
"Haha! What's there to care about? We're all guys, right?"
Tobe casually reached out to put his arm around Saika's shoulder, but he was blocked by a hand.
Hachiman fiercely said, "Get lost, you pervert!"
Hachiman's eyes burst forth with a fearsome glare, scaring Tobe into quickly retracting his hand.
"Eek~ Hachiman, you're unexpectedly aggressive tonight."
Tobe, whose personality was one of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, immediately retreated when seeing Hachiman act so forceful.
As for Tenya, Tobe didn't even dare to ask.
Not to mention him, even if Hayato himself angers him, he will be pressed onto the floor.
Tenya also had no intention of bothering with them. He just lied on the bed, opened his phone of the latest model, and happily scrolled through youtube shorts.
Hachiman immediately cast an envious gaze.
He was still using the old phone his dad had passed onto him. It was even damaged, so he was too embarrassed to even take it out in the open.
'Fortunately, I have no friends and no one looks for me to chat anyway.'
'Haha! Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem so sad?'
'No, buddy... You shouldn't think like that.'
Tenya couldn't help but cast a sympathetic look at Hachiman.
Noticing Tenya's sympathetic look, Hachiman was stunned.
'Huh? What's with that look? Can he read minds?'
Hachiman turned his head away, avoiding Tenya's gaze. When turning away, he ended up making eye contact with Saika next to him.
"Ha-Hachiman..."
Saika held his phone tightly, looking as if he had something to say but was hesitant.
'This is such a good opportunity. I have to find a way to get Hachiman's contact information.'
Tenya heard Saika's thoughts.
"I-is there something?"
Hachiman's gaze paused, and he even stuttered.
Actually, with his emotional intelligence, he could somewhat guess what Saika was thinking.
It was just that the experience in middle school had made him dare not easily trust others' good intentions.
Watching the two exchanging glances and hesitating, Tenya, who was watching the show, got impatient.
He quickly said, "Hachiman, Totsuka wants your contact information!"
"Totsuka, this man in front of you tosses and turns in bed every night, fantasizing about how to take the relationship between you two further!"
Hachiman shouted, "Hey! When did you install a camera in my room? You bastard!"
Hachiman, who had been exposed, immediately became angry and embarrassed.
"Hachiman, is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Saika's eyes lit up, and he looked at Hachiman with anticipation.
No!
I didn't!
Don't talk nonsense!
Hachiman subconsciously wanted to deny, but when his gaze fell on Saika's cute face, which was even cuter than a girl's, he nodded blankly.
"Well, it's not every night..."
Hachiman still wanted to preserve his last bit of dignity.
"Hehe~ That's great!"
"I also want to become closer to Hachiman!"
Saika said with a pure and brilliant smile.
Ooh~ Angel!
Hachiman's heart had been completely captured and conquered.
"Is this what Ebina was talking about?" Tobe watched on, feeling his back tighten.
"That's malicious, Yoshida-san."
Hayato looked meaningfully at Tenya, who had been fanning the flames the entire time.
"Not at all, I clearly facilitated a beautiful destiny." Tenya showed a joyful smile.
"...."
Hayato fell silent.
Because he found that this personality of fanning the flames perfectly matched Haruno.
Thinking of this, his mood became irritable.
"Yoshida, do you have someone you like?" Hayato went straight to the point.
Such a direct question immediately attracted the attention of the others in the room.
"I'm also very curious!"
"In our class, there's Takanashi-san, Kuchiki-san, Yui Yuigahama-san, and it seems there's someone named Kano..."
"And from other classes, Yukinoshita-san, Yotsuya-san, Yurikawa-san, Kujou-san."
"Who will you choose in the end?"
Tobe counted on his fingers, his face full of jealousy.
Damn it!
Even Hachiman cast a curious gaze.
"A boring question."
"Why should I choose?"
Tenya was still scrolling through his phone indifferently, and continued, "The most important thing in life is to be happy!"
"Yoshida-san's thinking is truly ahead of his time."
Hachiman was different. He had decided that he would only like one person in his entire life.
"I also prefer to be more conservative." Saika muttered to himself.
Hey!
Bro!
Your thinking is also very advanced!
Tenya was utterly speechless in his heart.
