The Heroines Want to Confess

A 1v1 Monopoly match wasn't all that exciting.

In the end, Sakurai still lost to Kaguya's ridiculous luck.

There was nothing he could do—her completely random dice rolls somehow kept dodging all his properties.

By the time the match dragged into the final phase, even drawing a second Plunder Card wasn't enough to turn the tables.

"Yay! Kaguya-chan, we won!"

Fujiwara cheered in excitement, looking happier at Sakurai losing than at actually winning herself.

"And now it's time for the penalty round! Kaguya-chan gets to ask each of us a question!"

Fujiwara whispered something sneaky into Kaguya's ear.

"Ha?! Fujiwara-senpai, you're trying to plant questions?! You didn't even win, and now you want the winner's privilege?!"

Ishigami muttered under his breath.

"Ugh, are all politicians' daughters this shameless? I should probably stay far away from her in the future..."

...He didn't actually lower his voice.

Fujiwara heard every word.

"I wasn't trying to make Kaguya-chan ask for me! I wasn't!!"

...And with one sentence, she completely exposed herself.

"Can I start asking my questions?"

Kaguya's eyes gleamed with anticipation.

She had an unusual thirst for victory.

She planned to extract valuable intel from everyone here—leverage to control the Student Council in the future!

As a member of the Shinomiya family, she had to keep the council in check.

"Go ahead."

Sakurai looked indifferent, but deep down—

He was furious.

This man was an absolute sore loser.

'What the hell was that?!'

How did a newbie manage to crush three veterans? Was it really just luck?!

Sakurai held onto game losses for years.

Losing even one round stayed burned into his memory for a decade.

He wasn't just petty—his level of holding grudges was on a whole different plane of existence.

"Sakurai-kun, when are you planning to get engaged to Fujiwara-senpai?"

BOOM.

A NUKE had just been dropped into the room.

Shirogane, who had just been casually listening for gossip, immediately tensed up.

Of course.

Kaguya wouldn't care about whether they were dating or had feelings for each other.

She was completely incapable of reading the mood—

She wasn't just dense—she was on a whole different level of KY (空気読めない - Can't Read the Atmosphere).

KY at the absolute max level—so bad she didn't even realize she was KY.

'Crap, I need to save Sakurai!'

Shirogane racked his brain.

"Probably in a few years."

Shirogane blurted out an answer to diffuse the situation.

"President, I wasn't asking you!"

Kaguya shot him down mercilessly.

"Oh."

Shirogane shrank back immediately—defeated in one move.

Even Guan Yu's legendary execution of Hua Xiong wasn't this fast.

And yet… Shinomiya Kaguya pulled it off.

Ishigami started trembling.

What if she asked him something like that next?!

But after a moment, he realized—

'Wait, why am I scared?'

'I have no secrets to hide. She can ask whatever she wants.'

He was so full of embarrassing history that even if everything got exposed, it wouldn't faze him anymore.

Ishigami Yuu—A man who used his own black history as a shield.

A true warrior.

Nothing in this world could break him anymore.

"Marriage proposal? Kaguya-san, why would you ask that?"

"Hm? Weren't you two making a baby at lunch?"

Kaguya blinked innocently.

The room fell into dead silence.

Ishigami's face turned beet red.

To a virgin like him, this topic was way too much.

W-Wait…

Fujiwara-senpai and Sakurai-senpai…

D-Did they… at school…

S-S-E… S-SEX?!?!?!

"…Making a baby?"

"Yes, weren't you about to kiss?"

Kaguya looked completely serious.

Fujiwara suddenly remembered being pinned down on the couch at lunch.

She turned completely speechless from embarrassment.

"Shinomiya-san, please don't slander me! I am still a virgin!"

Sakurai declared proudly.

To him, purity was an honorable badge—Something to wear without shame!

"Zero kisses! Zero relationships! Every other stat—also ZERO!!"

Ishigami got fired up.

"Same here! I'm a virgin too!!"

Shirogane almost chimed in, but…

He hesitated.

"…Me too."

He mumbled softly.

Fujiwara's ocean-blue eyes filled with pure shock.

"What… are you three even talking about?!"

"Kaguya-san…"

Fujiwara leaned over and whispered into her ear.

"Making a baby… doesn't actually work that way…"

One minute passed.

Kaguya blinked.

In that moment…

She matured.

"Ahem—"

Kaguya turned away, her face bright red.

"I-I knew that already. Obviously. Babies aren't delivered by cranes. And I already knew kissing doesn't lead to pregnancy!"

She absolutely did NOT know that.

The three guys were so stunned that time itself seemed to freeze.

All of them put on neutral expressions, but inside—

"Pffft…!"

Ishigami couldn't hold it in.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

Shirogane tried to act composed.

"Ishigami! You can't make fun of someone for this! Everyone has gaps in their knowledge!"

But—

"Pffft—"

Even Shirogane lost it.

Sakurai watched Kaguya's expression darken.

He tried to maintain his cool.

"I was professionally trained to not laugh."

…Unless I can't hold it in.

"Mhm. Not laughing."

Sakurai covered his mouth, struggling.

This was the ultimate young lady raised in a gilded cage.

The lack of common sense was off the charts.

Kaguya listened to their laughter.

Her expression turned absolutely terrifying.

The kind of look that said—

"I will grind your bodies into concrete and dump them into Tokyo Bay."

"..."

All three guys immediately straightened up.

Sakurai finally answered her question.

"As for your earlier question… my answer is—I don't have plans for that yet."

A very vague response.

"Ahem. Shinomiya-san, you can ask someone else now. No need to stare at me."

'Or I might get annoyed and actually kill you.'

Kaguya turned to Ishigami.

"Ishigami-kun, you laughed at me just now, didn't you?"

Her expression was eerily pleasant.

Ishigami: "..."

I need to run.

NOW.

"A-Apologies!!!"

Ishigami bowed deeply, grabbed his bag, and bolted for the door.

"I-I need to think about my club decision! I'll be leaving first!!"

"Oh! Ishigami! Stay safe!"

Shirogane covered for him.

Sakurai nodded seriously.

"Choosing a club is a big deal."

'They're lying. All three of them.'

Fujiwara sensed the deception.

Just letting Ishigami escape like that…?

No way.

Remembering all the times he roasted her before—

Fujiwara smiled sweetly and stood up.

"Ishigamikun You still haven't answered a question yet~ Are you sure you want to leave~?"

Ishigami froze mid-step.

Like a statue.

…It's over.
