Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: Being followed

It was after 10 a.m. Damian, Momo, and Rindō were watching TV. Unfortunately, Damian couldn't focus on what was happening in the series—in fact, he was even starting to get a bit of a headache.

The reason for this? Becky was blatantly lying on his lap.

After she finished cleaning the dorm, she ran to the living room and laid her head on Damian's lap without even asking.

If it had just stopped there, Damian wouldn't have been too bothered—there's no man in the world who would be annoyed by a beautiful woman lying on his lap.

The problem was that Becky was rubbing against him, smelling him as she murmured something, and every now and then, she would look up at him with a dreamy smile on her completely flushed face.

Trying with all his might to ignore the perverted woman on his lap, Damian didn't even notice time passing—it was dusk before he even realized it.

It was only when Rindō's stomach began to growl that they realized they hadn't had lunch.

"Becky, can you get up?" Damian said.

"Daily cough! Damian, is something wrong?"

"Uh... It's nothing, I'm going out now. Will you stay for dinner?"

Becky showed her teeth and said with a pouty face, "I'm going out too. It's a shame I can't stay, but I'm very happy I got to see you today!"

Becky jumped into Damian's arms while speaking and, after rubbing up against him for a while, she was pulled away by Rindō, while Becky murmured something incoherent.

Damian got up and said, "I'm leaving. And you two—don't stay up too late."

"Understood!" x2

After Damian left, Becky also clicked her tongue and said, "Those ignorant little bastards, don't let me find out who they are! Otherwise, I'll teach them a lesson for wasting my time with Damia-kun!"

"Becky, what you just said sounds really dangerous..."

"Rindō, Momo-chan, I'm off. Tell Damia-kun that I'm going to miss him so much and that he should think of me when he goes to sleep."

After finishing her sentence, Becky started humming a song and left the dorm.

After Becky disappeared, Damian, who had been in the dormitory yard, opened the back door and came back inside. Rindō smiled, struck a charming pose, and said, "Damia-kun! Remember to think of Becky when you go to sleep! Hahahaha!"

Momo also laughed. Damian sighed and fell onto the couch, saying, "Ahh... this is really complicated..."

Rindō laughed and said, "You have three paths in front of you. One is to silently endure it for the next three years, rejecting her feelings—which I don't advise you to do—and the last is to just marry her already! Hahahaha!"

"Uh... I still have three years to think about it..."

"So think it over slowly, Damia-kun... hahaha!"

After dinner, Damian didn't let Rindō and Momo stay up all night to keep watch. Rindō complained again and then climbed the stairs with a disgusted expression.

Only after eleven o'clock did Damian silently leave the dorm—but this time, two figures followed him stealthily.

"Hey, Momo, where do you think Damian is going?"

"I don't know, but why did he leave at this time?"

"Maybe he's afraid we'll catch him? And what's in that cloth bag he's carrying?"

The two kept a long distance behind Damian, remaining hidden the whole way. Damian didn't notice anything strange and just kept walking.

Across the forest, Senzaemon, Roland, and Yamada were silent on the opposite side of Damian's path, hidden in the dark and waiting quietly.

Roland said, "Did we arrive too early?"

"No, I have a feeling he should arrive soon."

Rindō and Momo were still stunned while trailing Damian into the forest—what could he possibly be doing out here so late at night with that pan?

Damian just walked at a steady pace. Roland was about to check his watch when they heard footsteps.

"He's here." x3

The three said in unison, then continued to watch in silence. Damian simply appeared in front of them, and Rindō and Momo also followed silently, hiding not far away.

Momo whispered, "Rindō, it seems like this is Damian's destiny."

Rindō nodded and said in a low voice, "Well, we can't know what he's going to do. Let's just watch for now. Huh? What is he doing?"

Before Rindō could finish her sentence, she saw Damian throw the pan, the sandbag, and the bracelet to the ground. Then, he walked over to the forest edge and took a piece of thin wood.

Besides the two of them, Senzaemon, Roland, and Yamada also watched so silently that Damian didn't even notice them.

After placing the wooden slats on the ground, Damian took off his coat without haste, leaving only his vest on.

Momo wanted to say something but covered her mouth. Rindō was also surprised, as Damian suddenly and skillfully reached for a branch of a nearby tree and hung his coat on it.

Chappelle also whispered in surprise, "What was that?"

"I don't know. I'm also curious to see what he's going to do. Let's keep watching."

"Hmm..."

Rindō murmured, a bit surprised, "I didn't expect him to use Killer Queen's explosion this way..."

(This isn't the kind of thing you can just suddenly do, especially involving explosions... He must have spent a lot of time training this.)

"Damian is really powerful..."

"Um... Momo, what do you think that piece of wood is for?"

"I don't know... Ah, look, Damian's about to start..."
