When she was at Kuoh Academy, Sakura Miyajima was single. Caleb was certain of this. He quickly brought his attention back. Regardless, Sakura Miyajima wouldn’t start dating another guy just three days after transferring, would she? So, whether this shy boy with brown hair was Sakura Miyajima’s ‘original boyfriend’ or not, he certainly wouldn’t be in the future.

Stepping past the crowd, Caleb flashed a bright smile at Sakura Miyajima. “Sakura-senpai, good afternoon.”

“Caleb?!” Sakura Miyajima’s beautiful eyes widened, her small mouth rounded. She said excitedly, “I thought I saw wrong earlier. It really is you! What are you doing here?”

Caleb dropped his smile, feigning a look of displeasure. “Sakura-senpai transferred. What’s the point of me staying at Kuoh Academy alone?”

“Ah, this…” Sakura Miyajima was a little stunned. Could he be interested in her, too? Is he willing to transfer schools just to be with her?

The girls around them discreetly backed away, giving the two space to talk. They whispered among themselves, secretly speculating about the relationship between the sunny, handsome boy and Sakura Miyajima. Sakura Miyajima was pretty, had a good figure, was a Kendo prodigy, and her grades weren’t bad. Now, with such a handsome, devoted boyfriend, she was a complete life winner… In their gossiping eyes, there was an undeniable envy.

Sakura Miyajima lowered her head, looking at her feet… Hmm, she couldn’t see her toes, only the two round, snow-white mounds of her breasts. A blush spread across her cheeks. She occasionally stole glances at Caleb, stammering, unsure how to respond. Ever since she first saw Caleb at the Kendo Club, she had been captivated and often followed his movements. However, the rumors weren’t good, completely different from the impression Caleb gave her. She wanted to approach him, but seeing the excellent girls constantly surrounding Caleb, she worried the rumors were true and held back. This back-and-forth hesitation meant she had actually exchanged very few words with Caleb. Yet, whenever she talked about school life with her parents, the conversation would inevitably shift to Caleb.

Under the envious and jealous stares of the boys, Caleb took Sakura Miyajima’s long, pale hand. “Sakura-senpai, I have something I want to talk to you about. Can you come with me?”

Could it be… is he going to confess?! This wasn’t the first time a boy had confessed to her, but this was the only time she felt her heart race, her face burning with shyness. Sakura Miyajima kept her head down, not daring to look at Caleb, only nodding instinctively.

Caleb smiled slightly. This is truly a case of ‘blessing and misfortune intertwined’. While he was easily targeted by ‘thugs’ and ‘cuckolds’, it saved him a significant amount of time in courtship. The girls watched the two walk away hand-in-hand with suggestive looks, occasionally bursting into playful giggles. The boys, however, looked heartbroken and despairing. Their goddess had only appeared for a few days, and now she was about to be claimed by someone else.

Especially the brown-haired boy Caleb had found familiar earlier, he felt like he had missed something very important. Even though he hadn’t exchanged a single word with Sakura Miyajima, he felt a sense of losing a cherished possession. Even if it were to be taken, it shouldn’t be now… it should be after he and Sakura Miyajima had established a relationship. This feeling was strange and inexplicable. He even felt a bit perverted himself. This feeling slowly subsided only when Caleb and Sakura Miyajima disappeared from his sight. He let out a sigh of relief, not daring to delve deeper into the feeling, and extinguished that indescribable thought in his heart. It was too terrifying. That feeling was too terrifying. He would rather not have a girlfriend than experience that again.

Caleb, who had unintentionally saved an ‘Unfortunate Hero’ from a tragic fate, was currently deep in thought. Looking at Sakura Miyajima, who was standing before him with her eyes closed, head tilted back, waiting for a kiss, he was unsure how to proceed. It was supposed to be a joke, just a probe. But as soon as he played a pair of Threes, the other side played a Royal Flush. He didn’t know whether to attribute it to his great charm or to how easily the adult film heroines were conquered…

Staring at Sakura Miyajima’s fresh, delicate pink lips, Caleb ultimately decided to first check if she possessed any special talent. He gently took a small step forward, pulling Sakura Miyajima into his embrace.

“Don’t… I just sweat, I smell…”

“Hmm, you do have a scent, but it’s the fragrance of jasmine.” Caleb sniffed the girl’s subtle aroma. Amidst Sakura Miyajima’s token wriggle of resistance, he lowered his head and kissed her moist, glistening lips.

“Caleb… Mmm…” In just a few seconds, Sakura Miyajima’s face turned crimson, and her eyes were filled with tenderness. This was her first kiss, and it was more comfortable and wonderful than she had imagined. Caleb’s kissing skills had been tested by multiple beautiful girls, so dealing with the inexperienced Sakura Miyajima was effortless. While gently kissing and sucking the girl’s fragrant saliva, he used his tongue to circle inside her smooth, warm mouth.

[Ding, detected talent: Sword Heart (Beginner)]

[Commencing copy…]

As their saliva was exchanged, Caleb heard a delightful prompt. His heart leaped with joy. Indeed, these heroines with a certain strength or skill very likely possess a talent. Reina Hamasaki’s group of four, the Takamine sisters, and now Sakura Miyajima—all were exceptions. However, he had kissed many girls who had proactively confessed to him before, yet found no talents.

Caleb scanned his surroundings, confirming that no one else was nearby in this corner, and his large hands began to grow restless. Feeling Sakura Miyajima’s hot, full body, his hands easily slipped beneath her loose Kendo uniform. They traveled down her slender waist, moving toward her firm buttocks and long, beautiful legs. The silky-smooth texture, like the finest silk, was irresistibly pleasing, no matter how many times he felt it. He slid his hand into the large hakama (trousers) of the Kendo uniform. Besides the superb feel, the girl’s body temperature became increasingly hotter.

As he stroked her warm, jade-like thighs, Caleb’s hand gradually moved toward the inner thigh. When he touched the girl’s mysterious area, the familiar wetness came through.

“Mmm… Hoo… Hoo…” Sakura Miyajima let out a series of rapid breaths, trying desperately to press Caleb’s hands down. They were outside, still on school grounds. Someone could pass by at any moment, and she wasn’t open enough to consummate the first time in such a setting.

Caleb understood the girl’s meaning. He released her cherry-pink mouth and whispered, “Sakura-senpai, I’ll be waiting for you at your place after school.”

Sakura Miyajima leaned against Caleb’s chest, her small face pink, her full, soft breasts pressed tightly against his body. She was breathing slightly, clenching her legs. His hot hand made her moan once more. “Mmm… okay…” The bewildered girl couldn’t think straight at the moment, not even questioning why Caleb chose her home as the location.

After soothing the protesting ‘Little Caleb’, Caleb wiped the slick moisture onto her smooth thigh and then withdrew his hand.

“Caleb… does this mean we’re dating now?” After tidying her clothes, Sakura Miyajima looked at Caleb anxiously. She had been too excited earlier and closed her eyes for the kiss without waiting for a confession. Now that she thought about it, she couldn’t help but feel uneasy. Her maidenly heart wanted to hear Caleb say it out loud.

Caleb stroked her pale purple, smooth hair and chuckled softly. “If Sakura-senpai thinks so, then it is.”

Sakura Miyajima pouted in dissatisfaction. What does he mean, “if she thinks so, then it is”? They had already done that… Seeing her expression, Caleb smiled, offering no further reassurance, and instead counter-questioned, “Sakura-senpai must have heard the rumors about me, right?”

“Mmm…” Sakura Miyajima wrung her hands and said softly, “I don’t care about those. They must all be baseless rumors.”

“No, those rumors are all true.” Caleb shattered the girl’s illusion. He didn’t want to create unnecessary trouble. Even Rias, or even the Goddess Senri Hasegawa, one of the Ten Great Gods, Caleb never intended to formally commit to them. One reason was to make it easier to flirt… Ahem, to make it easier to rescue pure, lovely, and innocent girls. The other reason was to minimize the impact of the ‘Unfortunate Hero’ archetype. Regardless of what others thought, Caleb was still single, without a girlfriend or wife. He had a strong feeling that once he formalized a relationship with a woman, a great deal of trouble would follow. Caleb trusted his intuition. His intuition had saved him many times since coming to this world. Just like his fighting instincts, although it wasn’t recorded on the system panel, he felt this was also an innate talent of his.

Sakura Miyajima looked at Caleb in disbelief, stumbling back a few steps, her face gradually turning pale. At that moment, all the inconsistencies began to surface in her mind. Looking tearfully at Caleb, she had many questions but didn’t know where to start. Caleb scratched his head. He wasn’t afraid of girls throwing tantrums. It was girls like Sakura Miyajima, who were on the verge of tears without making a sound… that he was least equipped to deal with.
