The all-powerful middle schooler

As he returned to his street, he was surprised to find a black sedan waiting at his door.

It seems that today's Valentine's Day story is not completely over yet.

With a 'thud,' Kaguya Shinomiya, dressed in her school uniform, gracefully stepped out of the car, holding something to her chest with both hands.

Inside the car, Hayasaka Ai silently watched all of this.

【Kaguya-sama: Love Is War, Go!】

This might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so please seize it!

"Hey, Shinomiya, I didn't expect you to be waiting for me at my doorstep."

Izumi Hasegawa was the first to greet them.

"I can't help it. Hasegawa-san is so popular, so many people give her gifts, how can I possibly squeeze in... Besides, those onlookers are so annoying."

Compared to her usual self, Kaguya Shinomiya speaks with a coquettish tone, like a cute little girl.

"Hehe... So, Shinomiya, you're planning to give me chocolates too?"

He smiled and said.

"Of course, of course."

Kaguya Shinomiya gritted her teeth and said.

Having come this far, how could she possibly give up?

"But I'm sorry to disappoint you, it's just 'obligation chocolate'! I just wanted to thank you for taking good care of me when I was learning archery from you, that's all."

The girl pretended to be relaxed and handed over a box of chocolates in a red, fancy package.

【Kaguya-sama: Love Is War, I guess I can't get over this after all!】

Hayasaka was disappointed, but not too disappointed.

Because a confession would definitely not succeed, she just wanted Kaguya to win over Hasegawa, a powerful asset.

Although she had only witnessed a portion of Hasegawa's power, based on her observations and the information she had gathered, that man must have reached an even higher level and was proficient in various martial arts, making him a true martial arts master!

"Then I'll accept it."

Izumi Hasegawa didn't hesitate and accepted it with one hand.

"Besides that, Shinomiya, don't you have anything else to say?"

"What else do I have to say! I already said it's 'obligation chocolate'!"

Kaguya Shinomiya emphasized in a broken voice, as if some kind of misunderstanding had occurred.

"I mean, you seem to have something on your mind, and you want to tell me, right?"

"You're way too perceptive!"

The girl glanced at him, looking like she was cursing and swearing, as if her image was about to collapse.

After a short pause, her expression returned to its somewhat indifferent state.

"Since you're so eager to know, then I'll tell you..."

Next, Kaguya Shinomiya explained her situation, her awkward position in the family, and the recent changes that had occurred in the Shinomiya family.

"I see, what a cliché plot."

After listening, Izumi Hasegawa didn't have much of an opinion.

Of all the stories he'd read, this was simply closer to reality.

Kaguya Shinomiya pursed her lips, feeling resentful.

Am I really so insignificant in his eyes?

Does this mean I'm destined to be alone and miserable for the rest of my life?

Thinking of this, the girl's eyes glistened with tears, and she almost burst into tears, crying out of grievance.

"So, Shinomiya, what do you plan to do?"

The man in front of him then asked.

"How to do it... I don't know, but... I don't want to accept it."

Kaguya Shinomiya hasn't figured it out yet, but the direction is already clear.

"What a joke! Without my permission, you made promises to me without my consent. I wouldn't accept even if it was an old man's order, let alone the so-called 'big brother'."

The young girl's beautiful face flushed with anger, her brows furrowing as she rebuked him.

The caged bird, yearning for freedom, longs to be like an ordinary girl, to cry freely, laugh freely, and shout freely, and also wants to have an ordinary love affair.

Therefore, she could not accept this treatment.

All along, when faced with a behemoth like the Shinomiya family, her voice had been too weak, and her heart was not as strong as outsiders imagined, making her unable to resist.

But now, her will has become increasingly strong through her day and night archery training, and she has accumulated that strength...

Now, all she needs is the support of one person to unleash her full potential.

“That’s right, Shinomiya, I agree with your idea.”

"Your life should be in your own hands."

"Go ahead, and I'll be there for you if necessary."

Hasegawa Izumi had sensed the girl's resolute will and decided to offer her support. So he stepped forward, reached out and placed his hand on the girl's shoulder, then patted it lightly.

"……Um."

In an instant, Kaguya Shinomiya stopped crying and started laughing, rubbing the corner of her eye with her right hand.

"I'm satisfied with just hearing you say that."

Chapter 31 You are not worthy!

The black sedan sped along the road, the flashing neon lights around it passing by in the blink of an eye.

"Kaguya-sama, is this enough?"

Hayasaka Ai asked with some concern.

In her opinion, if the young lady directly invited Hasegawa to accompany her, he would most likely agree, which would undoubtedly be safer.

In today's world, where heavy weapons are difficult to use, sufficient military force serves as a deterrent.

"enough."

Kaguya Shinomiya glanced sideways and saw her own stunningly beautiful face faintly reflected in the glass window, the smile on her lips clearly visible.

"He has given me the most important support."

When the girl decided to break free from this life that felt like being a puppet on a string, her mindset had already changed.

Kaguya Shinomiya felt extremely fortunate at that moment, realizing that her life wasn't all bad.

"That's it."

Hayasaka Ai sensed the conviction in the young lady's words, so she said no more.

Now, let's see if they can truly defy their fate.

A few minutes later.

The car arrived at the residence of Shi Gong Huang Guang, a large villa in a European style, with an exaggerated area, and the entire route belonged to him.

As someone second only to the head of the Shinomiya family, he certainly deserves such treatment.

"Let's go."

Kaguya Shinomiya walked in front, with Ai Hayasaka following behind to the side, before resolutely heading inside.

It was as if that place was no longer a terrifying abyss, but a threshold waiting to be broken down by her.

……

The Hasegawa family residence in the distance.

"Isn't the real show about to begin?"

While preparing dinner in the kitchen, Izumi Hasegawa suddenly sensed something and slowly closed one of her eyes.

The pat on the shoulder he gave earlier was actually a clever mark of spiritual energy, imbued with a bit of spiritual consciousness, giving him a personal perspective that he could observe at will and unleash a thunderous strike.

Although it was meant to give people confidence, what he just said was serious.

Therefore, in order not to be proven wrong, he still made insurance preparations.

As one eye closed, his vision shifted to two different perspectives: one in his own kitchen, and the other as the villa's gate slowly opened, welcoming Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka.

……

The interior of the villa is magnificent and brightly lit, making it a place of great allure.

But for Kaguya Shinomiya, this scene was nothing out of the ordinary. Her gaze immediately fell on her nominal 'elder brother,' while the 'stars' surrounding her, like the moon, were completely ignored.

"Huang Guang, I'm here."

Her icy gaze fell upon a handsome young man dressed in fine clothes not far away.

"Oh dear, shouldn't you call me 'Big Brother'? You're just like the daughter of a nightclub girl, so ill-mannered."

Huang Gao spoke sarcastically and looked contemptuous.

Kaguya Shinomiya has been subjected to criticism and cold treatment in the Shinomiya family because she has not undergone a paternity test to confirm her bloodline.

This is indeed an indisputable fact, and Kaguya Shinomiya had no intention of arguing about it, simply stating calmly:

“In my eyes, you are only better off because of your family background. If we were equals, Father would definitely choose me over you.”

This sounds a bit unbelievable.

No one present expected that the imposter young lady, who had always been bullied, would say such a thing. Even Hayasaka Ai was momentarily stunned.

"Crack...crack..."

Only Hasegawa Izumi, who secretly watched the show from behind a camera, applauded her.

Pretty!

That's what it means to be wild!

"He's just a child born to a mere mistress, yet he dares to spout such nonsense."

Beside him, a man who bore a resemblance to Huang Guang couldn't help but scold him.

He is the second son of the Shinomiya family and Kaguya's second older brother. His name is Shinomiya Seiryu, and he is even closer to Hikari.

Hayasaka Ai looked around and noticed that Kaguya's third brother, Shinomiya Untaka, was missing, which she found a bit of a pity.

If it were him who had been carefully nurturing Kaguya, perhaps he could have offered some assistance at this moment, preventing her from being so isolated and helpless.

"Alright, alright, you've gotten quite sharp-tongued since I last saw you."

Shinomiya Kōhō snorted, somewhat surprised by Kaguya's growth.

This made him feel uneasy, and he looked at someone with a gloomy gaze.

"Kaguya, my poor sister, do you know? Actually, your most trusted servant, Hayasaka, has always been my subordinate. She reports your words and actions to me every day."

Kaguya Shinomiya wasn't too surprised by what she heard. She glanced at the maid out of the corner of her eye, then turned back and said, "So what?"

"Whoo~"

Hayasaka Ai, who had bowed her head and was awaiting judgment, breathed a sigh of relief.

[To try and destroy someone's spirit is truly despicable.]

In the kitchen, Izumi Hasegawa clicked her tongue as she brought out the prepared food.

Unfortunately, Kaguya's mind is now strong enough to be immune to such crude methods.

"Ok?"

Seeing that his attempts to win people over were ineffective, Huang Guang became somewhat embarrassed and angry.
