Chapter 55 Gentleness Can’t Save Anything
Inside the Service Club.
The requests were still ongoing.
“How to become a man… generally, when people mention such words, they associate it with muscles, right?” Yui Yuigahama expressed her thoughts.
“Like the main character Schwarzenegger in Terminator.”
Yukino Yukinoshita glanced at Saika Totsuka’s body and involuntarily imagined him with muscles.
Whether it suited him or not was another matter…
“Totsuka-san is a member of the sports club, and his daily exercise is definitely sufficient, so he should have muscles. The reason he looks femi9 is largely due to his facial features. A pretty-faced boy will always appear somewhat weak no matter how he changes his physique…”
Adding Saika Totsuka’s femi9 aura and dressing style, it could only be described with one word… extreme!
If Yukino Yukinoshita hadn’t known beforehand, she would have definitely thought he was a girl when they first met.
“So, I think to become more manly, one needs to change their aura first.”
Asakura Yuu also nodded in agreement with her opinion…
“Manliness is more about the inner self. Apart from that, I have another point. Imagine this scenario… you’re surrounded by a group of giant monsters, and then a 1.6-meter-tall boy stands before you, controlling a 3D maneuver gear to slaughter the giants…”
“Isn’t that from a manga?” Yui Yuigahama retorted.
Attack on Titan, as a highly popular manga, was something even Yui, who didn’t particularly like shonen manga, was familiar with.
“Isn’t that cool? It has nothing to do with height, and moreover, would a boy with a heroic aura be seen as a girl? I once read a phrase in ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’… a great man should wear a 3-foot sword and achieve great deeds. In my opinion, appearance isn’t crucial; whether a boy can be called a man has more to do with his abilities and status.”
There are many famous yet unattractive celebrities.
Zhuge Liang, also known as the Sleeping Dragon, was infamous for his ugliness, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi was called a monkey…
It’s the abilities and status that matter more…
If you’re holding a gun, whoever you point it at will have to obey you and won’t dare move!
This is the confidence that abilities bring to a man!
Yui nodded: “Yes, Yuu-chan makes a lot of sense.”
Saika Totsuka listened to the conversation but still didn’t understand how to solve his problem.
“Uh…”
“Hold on!” Asakura Yuu raised her right palm, interrupting him: “Totsuka, you should change the way you speak. It’s not very suitable for a boy to interrupt others with ‘uh’.”
“Mm.” Saika Totsuka’s eyes locked onto him, her expression serious, waiting for his instruction.
“Be polite and say, ‘I have a different opinion to share,’ or be rude, give him a cold stare, and say, ‘Shut up!'”
Before Asakura Yuu finished teaching, Yukino glared at him and said in a cold tone:
“Asakura member, are you subtly mocking me for being rude?”
“Wow, Yukinoshita-san is so manly!” Saika Totsuka exclaimed.
Yukino: “…”
Oh no, I’ve become a teaching example!
“Yuki-chan is really cool. The word ‘cool’ (Kotori) fits her perfectly without any awkwardness.”
Yukino couldn’t do anything about Yui, so she just sighed inwardly and said to Saika Totsuka…
“Totsuka-san, let’s start with the basics. Try to change some of your movements to make your demeanor more masculine.”
Since Saika Totsuka entered, Yukino noticed that some of his subconscious actions were even more femi9 than a girl’s, like… looking at people with the eyes of a small animal, speaking in a soft voice, and playing with the hair beside his ears…
Seeing all this, Yukino wondered if Saika Totsuka was born in the wrong gender.
How could a guy be so cute?
Saika tilted his head, puzzled: “Movements?”
“…I just mentioned it, and you did one.” Yukino sighed.
“Yeah, it’s a bit weird for a guy to tilt his head.” Asakura Yuu said, tilting his head too, and asked Yukino: “How’s this, club president?”
“It doesn’t feel weird.” Yukino also tilted her head, and with her serious expression, it somehow became oddly cute.
Yui Yuigahama watched the 3 of them and thought aloud: “Habits aren’t easy to change… If Kotori just doesn’t want to be teased too much by club members, maybe following Yuu-chan’s advice and working on improving herself might help?”
“Mm.” Saika Totsuka nodded.
He also thought this was a good approach.
“Totsuka-san, how do you usually interact with the club members?” Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly asked a somewhat abrupt question.
“Just, normal club activities.”
“What kind?”
“Playing ball, practicing together, stuff like that?” Saika Totsuka, under her gaze, involuntarily weakened his tone.
“You became the club president this semester, right?”
“Hmm, our third-year senior graduated, so she entrusted the position of club president to me… and this year, several underclassmen joined the club.” Saika Totsuka explained, only to notice that everyone’s expressions had frozen.
The 3 members of the Service Club exchanged glances with each other.
“I remember the tennis club only had 8 members, which is a small number for a sports club.”
“Asakura-san remembers it clearly…”
Saika Totsuka counted on her fingers, saying: “Besides me, there are 3 second-year students, and 4 new first-year members. One of the first-year members even confessed to me last week.”
“The problem lies here.” Yukino instantly grasped the core of the issue.
In this island country, seniority is crucial, and the concept of respecting one’s elders is deeply ingrained.
However, in high school, everyone is young and hot-blooded, so submitting to their seniors would be unbearable.
In short…
it’s a case of “gekokujo” (where juniors overthrow their seniors)!
Therefore, strength is extremely important.
The first-year students in the baseball club serve water to the regular players every day without complaining, and similarly, the soccer club is mostly composed of second and third-year students, so the situation is stable.
But why is it different for the tennis club?
Is Saika Totsuka not skilled enough?
Is she bad at tennis?
Not at all.
“These underclassmen are so annoying! You’re always kind to them, Saika, but they just think you’re easy to bully.” Yui Yuigahama clenched her fist in frustration.
Gentle people shouldn’t be bullied; when did being kind become a weakness?
It’s really infuriating!
“At the start of the school year, you should have practiced with them and crushed them to establish your authority,” Asakura Yuu said with certainty.
Saika Totsuka looked taken aback: “Establish authority? But isn’t the most important thing to have fun playing tennis? We’re not enemies.”
Isn’t the core of sports about enjoying oneself, right?
“No, you might not be aware of it.”
Asakura Yuu shook her head:
“Soubu High School’s baseball club organizes several matches after recruiting new members, to make them recognize the strength of their seniors. The soccer club does the same; Hayama, as the soccer club’s ace, is usually gentle, but during matches, he gives it his all to show the new members who’s boss.”
“Even Hayama-kun?”
The super kind-hearted boy transforming into a demon on the field was unthinkable for Saika Totsuka.
“Yes! Otherwise, when it comes to setting strategies and such, these new members might not listen. Crushing their spirits is beneficial for management.”
Otherwise, you’d end up in the situation you’re in now.
You’re too kind, Totsuka.
