COTE: A Man On A Mission II Love is War?

"Hikigaya," Only, when Yamauchi chose to run away, Koenji then started to target his second opponent.

Because this guy, named Hikigaya Hachiman, was the one who threatened his freedom in this school, and directly threw the pot, that was just filled with trash on Koenji's head, “What, do you think of this vacation?"

'Shouldn't this guy, just mind his own business like always...? Why is he talking to me?!'

Even though, Hachiman was surprised by this change of lifestyle, he still decided to give some thoughts.
　　
'Is Koenji trying to ask me, if I have seen through the essence of this vacation?' But this question, has already changed Hachiman's evaluation of this op Isekaied protagonist.

Because in addition to having a monster like physique, and rumoured to be a cheater in the mid-terms, Koenji Rokusuke is also very intelligent..... he didn't waver, by the school's vacation trap...

Therefore, Koenji has also recognized that, school will not be so kind to provide this royal life.

But wants to take advantage of this opportunity to conduct a special exam instead.

And, now he directly asked this question from Hikigaya, hoping, this boy would be at least more beautiful from those poor commoners.....

But, Hachiman was also born in a middle income family, then Koenji's hopes are just going to be crushed for nothing.....

The facilities on this ship are just awesome, in addition to dining, and having fun, there are also cinema theaters, spa massages, etc.
　　
So, naturally there are also going to be libraries that cultivate sentiments.　

That's why, Hachiman is also looking forward to checking out Shiina Hiyori's new sanctum. It's just, he didn't know how to use the mystic arts yet.

Then, obviously couldn't open a portal, to borrow the stuff, and had to visit that place by walking on his own two legs. 'Well, I am just a normal teenager after all.....'

And, now this boy is quite busy reading a book, which contains the knowledge regarding how to survive alone in the forest, and the content is probably about things, which needed to be looked out, while pitching a tent.

Something like this.
　　
'Indeed, there are not many facilities for a tent, so I should check in advance before the departure....'

1. Is the tent fabric intact?
　　
2. Are the tent poles rusty? Can they be connected normally?

3. What if the floor nails are oxidised? And, how much is required to complete the process
　　
4. What to do if the drawstring is broken? And, other stuff like that....
　　
"Hikigaya-kun from Class C of the 1st grade,” While Hachiman was reading on the bookshelf, a girl's voice sounded in his ears, she's probably beside him.

“Can you get me the book starting with Y?" the other party asked in a polite manner.
　
And, this girl seems to be relatively standing close to Hachiman, allowing people like him to smell a nice fragrance. 'This scent is very similar to Kushida's' Jasmine type of perfume.

Even his deskmate, Horikita Suzune who is frugal in nature, also bought this stuff.... because, Hachiman had already seen Karuizawa naked in her dormitory, using that same perfume.

And, now when this familiar odour reached his nostrils, Hachiman immediately looked over and saw a girl with beautiful silver-white hair and a delicate face.

Her long hair reaches past her shoulders, almost touching that small waist, giving her a rather ladylike look.....

Her skin was just pure white and translucent like an Ice princess....but, for a second, he thought, that Sakayanagi directly jumped from the roof, after coming over from a helicopter or something, “Hikigaya-kun, there's nothing up there....”
　　
“.....” Hachiman. 'Right, It's not possible because, Sakayanagi was really grounded by her father....'

Probably, because of her naughty crimes in the Student council, and giving them a headache....

'You boy, who came from the world of Oregairu! Don't you dare throw the blame on our Chairman's daughter?!'

“.....” Hachiman. 'What's Oregairu? This name sounds like an anime, similar to that of Bunny-girl senpai, I had just started watching....?'

Even though, this boy was confused about his origin, he decided to pay attention to the girl, who was talking to him just now.

'I remember this girl is from Ryuen's class.... what's the name, Shiro?.... probably, not... it's a dog's name in Shin-chan....Hori...Hiina...you know what, I'll just ask later....'

'But, I do know, that when Kushida was banned from visiting her shrine, this library girl, told me about doing painting with Kamuro-san, in order to vent her emotions....'

It was the time, when Hachiman met this classmate.

And, he also took her picture, which might have made her think, that Hikigaya-kun was using a new tactic to bully her.

'Right, then I also sent the photo to Horikita, to test her, and then she told me some new intel, for example her name, Shiina Hiyori...I got it!'

While trying to remember what happened the last time, he met her, Hachiman recollected his thoughts, and learned this person's name.

'Not Shiro, it's Shiina-san!'

'You're right, my name is Shiina Hiyori....but, I still remember you didn't let me finish that monologue earlier, and promised to give me more story time later.....'

Indeed, that's why, I didn't let Hachiman find Stephen's magical sling ring..... otherwise, he wouldn't have come to the library. '

I see.'

'In addition to being the class beauty of Ryuen-kun's class, I also like to read books and refresh myself in the school's library, and yeah, my grades are also very good.... it's just a Class C girl, named, Horikita-san tried to fight with me once, but I ended by winning that quiz by 2 points....'

'As a result, I don’t have any friends....even Horikita-san, pushed her chair away, the next time she visited my library.'

Only, Hachiman feels that, his position is going to be stolen if he didn't put a break on this Shina-san's handle....also, this looking down type of attitude was monopolised by Hachiman, a long ago, that's why he feels that her rhetoric needs to be changed.
　　
Because, if she doesn’t have any friends, this girl won’t contact others such casually. 'Like now, she directly asks for my help to get her book.'
　　
Only, when Hachiman also looked at the bookshelf and saw the ones starting with Y were placed quite high, which is definitely a bit hard for Shiina, who's very short in life.

'....It may even take a few jumps, but still, there's a high chance of pushing the whole shelf moving down and getting hurt....'
　　
"Do you want to get the copy of Your Name written by Makoto Shinkai?"

Hachiman asked this question, when he saw the books on the shelf, there are a few science fiction on the top one, but there are also a few light novels.

Judging from the previous encounter with Shiina, who held [Scarlett] in her hands, Hachiman felt that, this might be her interest.

"Yeah, but I was first looking for an author named, Kinugasa, but the latest 2nd year Volume 11 hasn't arrived on this ship yet,” This was the response given by Shiina, and by looking at her forehead.

Hachiman can see a few drops of sweat, it's probably true what this girl said, and may have been looking around for a while

But when she wasn't able to find it, then decided to just settle reading another one for the meantime.

“The book, can you bring it down for me?” Only, when Hachiman didn't seem to move any further, Shiina got quite irritated, and repeated her wish twice, but to the said boy in question, it seemed more like an order with impolite threats hidden inside them.

So, he directly took the book down, by moving his hands rapidly, and then gave it away, but Shiina just accepted [Your name] from Hachiman, but neither did she say thank you in response, nor had any intention of scrolling the book in front of her bully.

Shiina decided to ask a question instead, very curious, “Hikigaya-kun, why are you still visiting the library on this ship?”

Indeed, she couldn't understand this, and just thought, he would also go to the massage parlours like other boys.

'Why are you still invading my home?'

'Don't you feel guilty after doing these criminal acts?'

“.....” Hachiman, who was just cramming, but then marked as a trespasser.

It's just after getting a painful reminder from his roommate, Koenji Rokusuke, who's still very busy fucking in the room....

'I again realised this exam is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of opportunity.'

'I should pour hot water on Katsuragi's bald head as much as possible.....'

“When are you going to leave, Hikigaya-kun.....?”

“.....” Hachiman, “....It's all Koenji's fault...”

“.....” Shiina Hiyori, really wanted to know, what kind of melon this boy was eating, “And, here I thought, Hikigaya-kun is trying to prepare for this deserted island exam!”

Some unexpected words, are spoken aloud, which should be a common mission of every First-year to keep this event silent, “I saw you reading the content related to camping, before!”

Shiina nodded her head enthusiastically, while getting quite excited, after getting her revenge on this law-breaker.

???
Deserted Island Exam.

“.....” Hachiman, who felt like, his clothes are being ripped of by the girl, named, Shiina Hiyori, of Class D.

No longer feeling that confident.....
