On Monday morning, Ichigo arrived at school very early than usual.

　When he arrived at the school gates, the gates were not yet open, and a few students who had come for morning practice of club activities were waiting for the gates to open. Those students probably go to school at this time every day.

　But Ichigo is different. Ichigo does not participate in club activities.

　In fact, Ichigo came to school so early for Yuto.

　Today, Masato was supposed to be going to a country called Miremar at the request of an organization called the World Ability Agency. Moreover, he hadn't told the school about it. In other words, from the school's point of view, it was a wonderfully cheating holiday.

　However, Ichigo is the only person who knows about Yuto's situation.

　 He was told by Yuto that Yuto is a gifted person, that his life is difficult and he desperately needs to secure an income now, as well as the origins of Yuto's family, the Dou Dou family, and the repercussions of Yuto wielding great power, all of which he was told by Yuto.

　Because of this, Ichigo, as a close friend of Yuto's, had planned to somehow follow up on Yuto's cheating this time, and he had made that promise to Yuto as well. Ichigo was a man who was disciplined in his promises.

　Ichigo knows that the biggest and scariest barrier to following up with Masato this time around is the one he has to deal with.

　 It's his homeroom teacher, Takano Mirei, from Class D of the first year. Ichigo must continue to protect Yuto for six days from today against this super-strong enemy. It's truly an impossibly difficult task.

　Anyway, Ichigo came to school this early in the morning in order to implement the plan that he has been thinking about all night to deal with this difficult task. First of all, he wants to get his classmates involved. To get as much of an edge as possible on the plan.

　For that reason, Ichigo decided to come to school before anyone else in his class and ambush them at the school gate here in order to talk to all of his classmates, including those participating in the morning practice of club activities.

　When the school security guard, an old man, opened the school gate, Ichigo waited there for his classmates from Class D of the first year to come to school.

　Ichigo knew that he needed to get the girls in his class on his side first.

　 If he could only manage to get the girls on his side, he thinks that the guys can't be bothered.

　 This year's enrollment was six to four girls. Therefore, the authority of girls is relatively stronger than that of boys.

　Besides, there should be no point in letting the boys in the first year of high school get into trouble with girls. If they made an enemy of the girls now, their future high school life would be a risk of living in a deserted hell without any moisture.

　 Moreover, the girls at Jilin High School have a high level of appearance. And there are many of them.

　This makes it impossible for any of the boys to dream about their own future high school life. Ichigo was well aware of the ecology of being a first year high school boy.

　And if he specialized in this matter alone, Ichigo had a chance to win.

　 Ichigo, in his own opinion, was better at keeping his distance from girls than other boys. Because of this, Ichigo has gradually gained popularity with the girls since he entered the school.

　Because of this, he is not thought of well by some of the boys, but Ichigo was convinced that such small fry were bound to bow down in front of the girls.

　Normally, Ichigo is sold on his natural body, but this time there is a situation. He's going to ask the girls to do him a favor, even if it's a bit forceful.

(I'm sure my likability will go up when I'm this desperate and work for my guy friends!　A little desperate is just fine!　(Hmmm ... and that's the same thing if you fail ... you can say that)

　Although he said it was for Yuto's sake, Ichigo was calculating this area well....

　But in the view of Ichigo, who was grinning sloppily, an improbable person came to school before anyone else in the class.

''Hm?　Huh?　Eeeeee!　Yuto!

　Now, the very best friend that Ichigo was trying to use... or rather, help... was coming to school with a well-groomed and poised bag.

　Surprised, Ichigo ran up to that Yuto.

'Hey!　Yuto!　What are you doing?　You weren't supposed to be here today.

Yeah?　You are..... Are you a schoolmate of Mikate-sama?　I don't know what to do about this...

'What are you talking about?　What, didn't you go to the World Whatevers agency to ask for it?　What are you going to do about my super-sensitivity plan that I came up with late yesterday!

　Ichigo says that and takes Masato to the back of the school building, thinking it would be bad if people around him heard him. Following him, Masato is saying something as if he is thinking about it.

''Hmm, as I recall, in this kind of case........the winning girl said.......''

　When Ichigo and Yuto are alone behind the school building, Yuto speaks to Ichigo in a revised tone.

''No, boy, I'm sorry, but I'm not feeling very well at the moment. If you could, could you leave me alone for a week or so?

'Oh?　What are you talking about... yeah?　You......

　Ichigo felt uncomfortable with this Yuto and kept his distance.

''You're not Yuto, are you?''

Ho.....

　Ichigo tells him that he's not Yuto, and that Yuto looks at him with narrowed eyes.

　Ichigo has known Yuto for a long time. Even more so, Ichigo considers himself to be a close friend of Masato. That's why he immediately senses that the person in front of him right now is not the real Yuto.

　That's why he was able to follow this mysterious event and immediately came to the conclusion that it was an imposter, because he was shown and told by Yuto in the park the other day that he was a psychic.

　And there was another reason for Ichigo to realize this........

　It was.........


　It was easy to understand........very easy.


　In fact, if you are going to be transformed into a Yuto, Ichigo wants to tell you to at least imitate everything from your mannerisms to the way you speak.

　 It's a good thing that this Yuto, despite his Yuto appearance, is, how should I put it, too well dressed.

　Even Ichigo is a healthy guy. I want to be popular with women. And he's constantly searching for the kind of coolness that will be valued by women.

　 He never says it out loud, but every high school boy thinks about it.

　

　 The air of a handsome man can already be felt on Ichigo's radar through his expression and mannerisms. The coolness of the inside comes out in a good way on the outside, even though it is Yuto's appearance.

　 It's like, let's put it that way, it's like Yuto's good-looking qualities have jumped up several times over, while his outer appearance remains intact.

''Who are you? What happened to the real dorky Yuto?　Huh?　Ugh!

　As Ichigo said that, that Yuto instantly approached him and grabbed the chest of Ichigo's blazer with tremendous force and lifted him up with one hand.

''You!　Did you call the Lord's mansion lame?　To that godlike Mikado-sama, that quality of speech.......deserves all death!

Gu ... what?　My lord?　Divine?　Yuto?

'Yes!　That sweetheart, the greatest and greatest beauty on earth!

　

　And for a moment, Ichigo felt uneasy.

　 Yuto is an ability. He could imagine being involved in a world that Ichigo didn't know about, something he didn't know about.

　 And the awesome skill he was shown in that park was clearly something he would have honed for battle.

(Don't tell me that Yuto is this guy........

　Isn't it possible that Ichigo was hit by Yuto?　When I imagined that, I couldn't believe my own killing intent boiled over to this fake Yuto figure.

''You!　You didn't mean to kill Yuto!　I'll never forgive you!　What did they do to you!　What the hell did you do to my buddy!

　Even though Ichigo was being held back by Yuto's fake, he fought back with a desperate look. In his eyes, he also had light tears in his eyes.

''........''

　Yuto's impostor, who had been watching the situation calmly, let go of Ichigo.

''Boy........what is your relationship with Mikate-sama?''

'I'm your best friend!　You!　So, what did you do with Yuto!

　Ichigo is still confident in his arm strength even with this. But with this fake Yuto's move earlier, he knew that it would be far stronger than him.

　 But that didn't matter to Ichigo. He braced himself to attack the fake Yuto at any moment.

　Then the fake Yuto disappeared from sight.

''Hm?　Huh?

　When he looked closely, he saw that fake Yuto had come up to him and was kneeling in front of him. Ichigo is uncomprehending and gets pouting.

''I'm sincerely sorry!　How dare I do this to your best friend, Gokan-sama....

What?　What is it?

'My name is Aramitsu. I am your squire, and I am your self-appointed shield.

　In front of Ichigo, who is unsure of what is going on, the fake Yuto is hanging his head and apologizing.

''Uh, er.......so you're not an enemy of Yuto?''

'No way!　 Mokan-sama doesn't acknowledge it and calls me his friend, but.......

　Fake Yuto has changed so much that even Ichigo is surprised, but it doesn't look like he's lying. If you remember, he was gushing about Yuto earlier, and Ichigo was furious because he called Yuto lame.

(Huh?　Then what is it?　This guy...... (You mean he's one of your friends?)

'Well my name is...'

''I'm Arrogant Hikaru. Even though I didn't know it, I raised my hand to Mikan-sama's best friend. On top of this!

　As he said this, Aragamitsu took out a stunning dagger from wherever he got it from, took off his jacket and opened the front of his shirt to reveal his stomach. Then he pointed the dagger at himself.

'What? Wow!　Hey, Mr. Arrogant!　Wait!

　Ichigo hurriedly stops Aragamitsu from trying to cut off his stomach, and he is in a hurry to stop him.

''Please don't stop me!　This is no way to make a face to meet your mansion-sama!

No!　Let's talk about it!　We need to talk...!




　Finally, with a full-body breath in front of a calmer Aramitsu, Ichigo had to hear from Aramitsu how this happened.
