I really don't want to open a harem here Chapter 3: Heroine Akane Nanao
Previously on I really don't want to open a harem here...
The sound of pig slaughtering echoed across the campus, startling onlookers and sending shivers down the spines of those who heard it.
However, the campus was deserted, so it was hardly an issue.
It was an understood fact that such a scene should transpire without witnesses, lest it deviate from the legendary NTR blackmail scenario.
Nanao Akane dared not watch, covering her mouth as cold sweat trickled down her body.
"So pitiful..." A devastating low blow rendered the coach's robust physique useless; he appeared strong externally but was weak within, reduced to howling on the ground like a dying pig despite his formidable muscles.
Mu Xiaoxiao, naturally, seized the moment.
He charged forward, unleashing a brutal assault.
Beneath the setting sun, his expression was etched with a peculiar, wicked intensity.
"Coach Tougou, is it?" "I won't beat you to death today!"
"But..."
He clenched his fists, bringing them before her face.
"For being mean! For being sinister! For harassing girls! For dragging me into this damn world!"
Punching, kicking, and cursing, Mu Xiaoxiao vented all his pent-up rage.
The 'mighty' Coach Tougou was pummeled into a bloody mess, resembling a pig's head and lying like a lifeless hog on the ground.
Akane Nanao, a spectator to the unfolding drama, stared in disbelief. Her mouth hung open as she watched Mu Xiaoxiao's one-sided onslaught, rendering her speechless.
Reputation aside, Coach Tougou's physical prowess was undeniable.
His musculature was intimidating, yet... he was being brutally beaten by Mu-Kun?
"Magnificent."
"Damn it, spit!"
After the brawl, Mu Xiaoxiao, catching his breath, straightened his clothes and spat in disgust.
The muscled coach beneath his feet, though half-dead, still radiated fury.
Contemplating a future confined to this world brought a wave of melancholy.
Another kick landed on his face.
"Sigh, I truly wish to escape this world... but I cannot."
"Furthermore, I assaulted a teacher immediately after arriving here... While he's a detestable wretch, isn't this an inauspicious start?"
"Ding, the host's execution of justice has been detected: A kick to the groin, a fatal blow!"
"Facing oppression and threats, you inflicted severe damage upon the notorious scumbag teacher and delivered an iron fist of justice to rescue a maiden in distress.
Rating: B. The Host receives the following rewards: Skill Points: 5. Skill: Beast Taming."
The system's dispassionate voice eased the turmoil within his heart.
Having thrashed the muscular trainer soundly, the system's rewards filled his account, bringing a sense of relief and comfort.
"That's all for now." "I'll be back later to collect more interest, Coach Tougou."
"These individuals are mere tools for my exploitation." "Though they are scumbags, they still serve a purpose for me."
This system is genuinely encouraging.
With this newfound resolve, Mu Xiaoxiao, feeling invigorated after the beating, uttered his parting words, dusted himself off, and departed.
He didn't even glance at Akane Nanao, who had been standing by the entire time.
Akane Nanao cautiously remained hidden, observing the still-prone muscular trainer, then his retreating figure in the distance. After a moment's hesitation, she finally pursued him.
The events of the day had profoundly shaken her.
She had initially held a favorable impression of Katase Shouya and had anticipated certain developments, only for the coach to discover her and then threaten her with dire consequences.
Fortunately, a classmate's timely intervention saved her; otherwise... she shuddered at the thought of that grim fate.
However, Tougou wouldn't back down easily, would he?
Akane Nanao hurried after Mu Xiaoxiao, her gaze fixed on his receding figure, lost in thought—after all, this scoundrel was the baseball team's coaching consultant.
As long as he remained affiliated with the baseball department, it was only a matter of time before... The thought sent a fresh wave of anxiety through her.
Her sole motivation for joining the baseball club had been Shouya—who could have foreseen encountering such a person?
"Um, Mu-Kun?"
"Thank you for what happened today; without you, I would have... if that guy had succeeded."
She quickened her pace, catching up to the boy, her heart brimming with gratitude.
Alongside her thankfulness was a tinge of embarrassment.
After all, being witnessed by a classmate in such a situation was bound to be awkward.
Yet, based on Mu-Kun's demeanor, he seemed unfazed...
She was correct; Mu Xiaoxiao remained unconcerned. Without even turning his head, he replied:
"I already told you I'm not doing this for you; don't assume I'm some kind-hearted soul. I simply disliked that muscle-head, so I gave him a thorough thrashing."
"Even so, Mu Kun, you saved me, it's a fact." Nanao Akane followed Mu Xiaoxiao out of the school; seeing him stop suddenly, she hurriedly walked up to him and bowed. "Thank you." "All right, all right, you can go. We are also classmates." Akane Nanao was a little disappointed and saddened by his indifferent attitude. "Mu Kun, I feel that you hate me very much." "It's not annoying; it's just a strange classmate." Mu Xiaoxiao didn't want to get too involved with her, so he waved his hand and said impatiently, but stopped in mid-air after finishing speaking, "Wait, do you... know where I live?" Akane Nanao: "..." "How could I know where Mu Kun's home is?" Can anyone forget where their home is? Seeing Mu Xiaoxiao's embarrassed face, the girl couldn't help but smile, "Are you an idiot?" Just now, he had an indifferent expression that screamed; no one is allowed to approach, but now he has failed. "Let me help you find it." The girl volunteered, patting her chest, and that terrifying chest trembled, making the corners of his eyes tremble—probably too fierce. "How can you help me find it? By the way, are we really classmates?" "...Is this still fake?" "You are too much; you can even forget your classmates." Akane Nanao sighed, she was hurt. Her classmate didn't even know her name. "Do you know Yukinoshita Yukino? Hikigaya Hachiman?" "Who is that?" She asked surprised 'What is he saying?' "What about Kasumigaoka Utaha, Sawamura Eriri?" Or the school in Toyosaki?" "I've never heard of them. Is this a school in Tokyo?" Not It seems that there is no play. "Mu kun, you are so amazing, you can actually beat Coach Tougou... But if this is discovered by the school, it will be very bad, right?" "I'm not afraid of anything; what are you afraid of?" Mu Xiaoxiao curled his lips, "So it's not surprising that you... heroines will be threatened." "What?" "Nothing."
