LIGHTNOVELONLINE Ch 36 – 07 May, The battle of GCC
And then after final homeroom, Kouta walked toward the clubroom together and as such he just like usual found that Inada and Prez were already there. It was natural for them to be in this club room before him. Kouta immediately greeted them with his usual one-handed wave.
"Oh, you’re already here. Kouta-kun. You ready, right?" Takao immediately said that after she returned Kouta’s wave back.
While Inada was so focused on her phone that she didn’t even move her eyelashes. Seeing her intense face while playing Floopy Bird gave off such a chill atmosphere.
"Well, Yes… I’m fine." Kouta replied and nodded contentedly.
"Good to hear that. Right now, we’re going to the battlefield after all…" She was in high spirits. She was in super high spirits, and she chuckled, ‘ku—ku—ku—’
"Ah…" On the other hand, it looked like someone had failed in the game, as her spirit fell and she became meek. "Kouta, you’re ready, right?" Inada asked timidly. She didn't appear to be confident in her ability.
"I’m fine. I guess…" Kouta replied, thinking back on how little he had trained or played this game. Simply put, Kouta didn’t make this problem his priority. It wasn't that he didn't want their victory or anything. It's either because of his memories or because he was able to apply and combine that knowledge with his skill. And in the previous world, watching people playing games was a norm… and before he knew it.
Playing games became such easier as he had watched not just pro players and casual too and by combining it. He became such a master in any game he tried to play in a short time.
Takao made a gesture and said, "Okay, then let’s go. After we won. I will treat you to some drinks." She tried to get his junior excited and left the club room toward the enemies' club room.
"Wow, thanks." Kouta said while taking out the camera.
"Hm… what are you doing, Kouta."
"Inada… I need your help, but I will record this fight, and I hope you will help me to record my fight. Ah… Also can I borrow your spare uniform?"
"Well, of course you can borrow that. But what is this recording for?" Inada asked as she started to be interested in what this boy was actually doing. Since she found this boy sometimes thinking beyond someone at their age after all.
"Well, of course. This kind of event is not something I will let go of. This may be good material to promote our game." Kouta replied with a smile.
"Promotion, huh… That’s something I never actually think of." Inada said. She may be good at making games and stuff, but if you talk about other things like promotion and stuff. Well, she didn’t think about those things, and maybe their Prez too. "Hm… Okay. It may be good for us overall."
Yeah, Kouta felt this event was essential to making Floopy Bird become famous. Maybe…
It wasn’t long before they arrived in the ‘temp’ GCC clubroom.
"Oh, finally you came here…" Chitose spoke after they entered the clubroom, when she spoke. Takao immediately stepped back and hid on Kouta’s back, and responded.
"Of course. We will win after all." Takao said those provoked words, while still hiding on his back.
"So how are we doing this?" Roka asked the question.
"Well, I know you may have been using your phone to train, but I want you to use this phone" Kouta put down his phone and Takao’s phone.
"Hm? Why?"
"Well, those two phones were already prepared to be able to record the screen when we were playing the games. As a result, it could serve as both proof and promotional material.
""Promotion!?""
"Yeah, I think this is a good time to make promotional material. We wanted to sell this game to the market after all. And of course, we divided the income from the game." Kouta explained his plan until they understood.
"Okay then… by the way, can I change my clothes."
—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Okay, this is the battle that will be in the history of Togosaki High School! A match between GCC and ‘temp’ GCC as the winner of this match will absorb the loser and become the True GCC! Our matchup will be like this!" Kouta said that while recording what happened, he moved the camera to Inada and Chitose.
"Our first match is Inada-san from 1-A versus Chitose-senpai from 2-D!"
"Ugh… What is this… heaven?" Inada said this while holding her nosebleed flow back with her hand.Her face flushed with happiness.
"Guu… How can it be… It feels like I’m lost as a girl." Chitose said while looking at Kouta with such a frustrated stare.
"C’mon… Girl. Please be serious, and Inada, stop looking like a pervert, please."
"But…" "How can you expect us to be serious while you have that kind of appearance?" Chitose said while she looked at something beyond her belief.
It was a cute girl with long braided pinkish hair wearing their girl uniform, but without any shame, and she had such a confident look on her face… even though… she wasn’t she… but HE! Yeah she was HE!
"Well, if you have such a good look… why not…" Kouta replied nonchalantly.
"Ugh… He looks so smug. I wanted to punch him… but he said the truth…" Chitose responded with her hand trembling with her urge to punch him.
"Hora… Hora… Don’t say he! People will find out!!"
"No… I need to understand why you are wearing such attire."
"It was easy. This may be a fight, but it's also promotional for our game. And who is our target market?"
"Well… gamers?"
"Yes… and the majority of the gamers would be men! And when they are weak with a gamer girl… they will love the GCC that is full of gamer girls! Having a male will make a riot! We will post it on Uotube and make money from those people. That’s our main promotion! And they will become our simp!"
"This guy… He lost his mind. Also, what the hell is Simp?
"Also, I’m not doing it for free… since the Prez promised me that all of the GCC would wear maid uniforms for me. So… yeah… Chitose-senpai will wear those if they lose this match."
Kouta and Chitose had such a long conversation, before Chitose, as she tried, came to Takao with a furious look on her face.
"Takaooo!! That’s not something I hear!"
"But… but…"
But just as Chitose had taken several steps toward Takao, Kouta informed her something.
"C’mon, Chitose-senpai… It means Roka-senpai would have to wear Maid uniforms as well."
"Ah… Okay. That's a good idea. Okay… Inada, we will fight!" Chitose immediately sat in her chair with a handphone in her hand.
"Wait… Why can I see a big fire behind Chitose-senpai… Wait… Curse you! Kouta!!!" Inada cursed Kouta, but when she saw her get another nosebleed.
"Inada! Call me Suzu when I'm crossdressing and on camera!!!" Kouta corrected Inada.
"You’re stupid! Money-grubber!!"
With that, the Inada versus Chitose match between them ended very quickly. Not only was Chitose in fire mode, she was actually staring at Inada, which made her quiver in fright, and her nosebleed didn’t help her at all.
Before we knew it the match ended in fast fashion… while Inada fell to the floor with ‘I’m in heaven’ written in blood that came from her nose and a happy smile on her face. Such a good material to capture.
"What an anticlimax fight… but the winner is Chitose-senpai!"
"Next, the match will be me, Suzu, and Mizukami-san from 1-C!" Once again, Kouta said that while giving the camera to Inada.
"Okay… Mizukami-san, we fight in a fair match…" Kouta told Minami, who always smiled.
"Un… Suzu-chan!" She replied with his made-up name, and she tried to look cute herself.
"Oh…you’re quite a good actor. I like it."
And so… It was another fast match since she was weak. Really weak… But at least, Kouta got another good piece of material to capture. Because, just like in the anime and manga, when she was defeated, she poured air minerals on her head. And to Kouta's surprise, steam heat actually came out after she poured that water.
"Well, okay. The last match would be our GCC Prez Takao-senpai and ‘tem’ GCC Prez Roka-senpai."
Kouta announced the start of the match that would confirm the winner of this battle with a wager.
