Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Come on, let’s hurt each other!

Tiantai has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times!

This place is the trigger point for various events, and countless heroic and bloody events have taken place here.

Some people use the rooftop as a romantic place to confess their love, and some even have supernatural events.

Neon rooftops, swimming pools, sports equipment warehouses...

Of course, there are not so many complicated stories about the rooftop of Toyonosaki Academy, and students would not run to the rooftop to enjoy the cold wind for no reason.

After careful consideration, Tomoya Aki felt that the rooftop was a good place to talk, so after obtaining Kasumigaoka Utaha's consent, the two of them came here.

The third-year students were very curious about what was going on between them, but whether it was Tomoya Aki or Utaha Kasumigaoka, they both exuded an aura that made them feel unapproachable when they left.

As the two's auras intertwined, the senior students could only suppress their curiosity in their hearts.

However, in terms of the respective status of Tomoya Aki and Utaha Kasumigaoka in Toyonosaki Academy, the public and proactive meeting between the two at school by Tomoya Aki may open a new chapter for the three famous figures of Toyonosaki Academy.

"I hope Teacher Kasumi Shiko doesn't mind interrupting me."

With his back to the door to the rooftop, Aki Tomoya looked at the beautiful Kasumigaoka Utaha at the front of the bench and said politely.

His initiative to come looking for her was indeed very abrupt. Although they were actually acquaintances in private, their relationship was hidden from other students in school.

No one would have thought that the three famous people of Toyosaki Academy actually have a triangular relationship chain hidden.

Tomoya Aki and Eriri are childhood sweethearts, and he also maintains a relationship with Utaha Kasumigaoka that goes beyond that of a writer and a fan.

Then there are Utaha Kasumigaoka and Eriri, who also know each other's identities and are rivals who know each other well.

This relationship has not been exposed in the school, but now that Tomoya Aki has taken the initiative to find Kasumigaoka Utaha, this youthful school will definitely be full of gossip.

But that has nothing to do with him, because of what happened last night, Akito Tomoya felt it was really necessary to explain things clearly to this senior.

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Aki Tomoya expressionlessly. She was really surprised that the other party would call her by her pen name.

This was the first time he came to her on his own initiative at school, and he had an unprecedentedly serious expression on his face. For some reason, Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly felt a little irritated.

"…What exactly do you want to say?"

After a moment of silence, she asked with a puzzled tone.

The sudden appearance and such strong presence made Kasumigaoka Utaha a little uncomfortable.

Aki Tomoya raised his hand to push up his glasses and spoke in a calm and clear voice, "Ms. Kasumi Shiko, how are your preparations for your new work going?"

Hearing his question, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked a little surprised.

Will Tomoya Aki care about her new work now?

Judging from my observations of Tomoya Aki these days, there must be something wrong with him no matter how I think about it!

This guy is so focused on preparing for the entrance exam to the University of Tokyo, why is he suddenly asking about the meaning of her new work?

"Thanks to you, I've been thoroughly prepared. I'm just bursting with inspiration!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha folded her arms and replied in her usual confident tone.

However, the fact is just the opposite. Because I have been thinking about Tomoya Aki recently, Kasumigaoka Utaha's new work is still at the title level.

"Then, Kasumi Shizi, who is so full of inspiration and has a knack for creating new works, wouldn't it be better for you to focus all your attention on your new work, cooperate with the editor's arrangements, and work hard on your career as a writer?"

I will study hard for the Tokyo University, and you can focus on being a light novel writer. Isn't that good enough?

Everyone has their own goals, but they are not everything to each other...

"What do you mean?"

"Ms. Kasumi Shiko is being very uncooperative with Ms. Machida's work, isn't she? I've clearly stated everything on my homepage, repeatedly pinning explanatory tweets. The deputy editor-in-chief at Kasumi Shiko's office is quite the man. For the sake of their own writers, they're willing to put up a good fight with a student like me, pretending to be clueless while knowing the truth!"

Akitomo didn't have any other intentions, he was just unhappy about what happened last night, and he wanted to take this opportunity to make things clear with Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Although she knew Kasumigaoka Utaha's personality and how difficult it would be for Machida Sonoko after this incident, the main reason why Aki Tomoya came to her was not to target the deputy editor-in-chief.

On the contrary, Akitomo also understands how responsible Machida Sonoko is as an editor, but understanding is one thing, but if it affects him, Akitomo will not be in a good mood.

But after careful consideration, Aki Tomoya felt that there was no need to continue like this.

This sounds like shirking responsibility. A popular new writer who is about to prepare a new work has been affected because of him. Does he still have to be responsible for Kasumi Shiko's writing career?

Sorry, he cannot bear that responsibility and may even feel guilty for no reason.

"If Kasumi Shiko's career as a writer is thwarted because of me, am I still responsible?"

Tomoya Aki is not looking forward to Kasumi Shiko's new work at all. He is not interested in anything related to the two-dimensional world now.

"There's a limit to being upset, okay? If you think I dumped you, then just treat me like a complete scumbag. If you want revenge, you can do it!"

Akitomo doesn't mind portraying himself as a bad guy. After all, everyone will go their separate ways after graduating from high school.

Kasumigaoka Utaha will go to her home university, the Faculty of Literature at Hayao University, and Aki Tomoya will enter the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Tokyo.

"I will definitely get into the University of Tokyo, and then I'll hook up with some wealthy tycoon's daughter there. Then, senior, you can drop out of Zao Ying University like those literary predecessors and complete your career as a writer. Then you won't even have the right to let me laugh at you!"

Tomoya Aki imitated the most arrogant and vicious tone he had ever heard in a movie, and attacked Kasumigaoka Utaha mercilessly.

"Light novels, huh? A woman who writes about teenage romance and gets dumped, do you really think you're writing something literary? When you can write light novels that earn the Nobel Prize for Literature recognition like Yasunari Kawabata, maybe you'll have the chance to come up to me and proudly push your head against my head, making this bastard regret missing out on such an excellent woman. Now, you're just a woman haunted by your past, even worse than your past. How ridiculous!"

Uh, cough cough, my throat is almost dry from talking!

Aki Tomoya had never spoken in such a fierce tone before, and his words were so extreme and sarcastic, and the target was a girl who had not yet graduated from high school!

If he had to give himself a score, Aki Tomoya would give himself a zero, because he was the worst man in the world just now!

But if he could make Kasumigaoka Utaha give up completely, Aki Tomoya felt it was still worth it.

Come on, let's hurt each other!
