I am that male friend in the harem story-Chapter 250: Talk between men

"...."

With Oreki's body, if he stayed too long, Satoshi could imagine that this guy would be sleeping there forever.

"I am a bit sleepy, so I will go to sleep first."

As he said so, Satoshi took out the prepared futon and laid it on the tatami floor before lying down.

"Oh. Me too."

Oreki could read any time, but he felt like watching Satoshi, who lay down and was ready to sleep; this guy must be tired, he thought, and frankly, he also started to get sleepy.

Two guys slept in the same room; it was normal, yet he couldn't say that it had a different feeling, as he felt Satoshi had become much bigger.

Satoshi's thin and small frame could no longer be seen, and as he grew fitter, he grew taller and bigger.

Even that area was bigger, which left Oreki speechless.

'If my older sister sees him...'

Instead of playing around in India, Oreki could imagine that his older sister would just stay at home obediently.

Then again, in this town, there wasn't much of anything, which made him wonder what he should do.

Should he just follow Satoshi's words and become a civil servant?

"Satoshi, are you sleeping?"

"Not yet. What's wrong?"

"How was Tokyo before?"

"You want to go to Tokyo?" Satoshi turned around and looked at Oreki curiously.

Oreki appeared to be hesitant, then said, "...it won't be wrong to have an intention to visit, right?"

"That's true." Satoshi nodded, and at the same time, he wondered whether Oreki had started to feel curious about the outside world rather than huddling up, staying in his world all the time as an energy saver.

"Hm... if I have to say that it isn't that much different from Takayama."

"Was it?"

"If there is a difference, then it is just that there are so many people there, so if you want to live a comfortable life, then you need more money."

"Hmm... working, working, and working. Somehow, I can imagine that kind of life will be what I will do if I move to Tokyo."

"That's true. That's what everyone will do if they move to Tokyo, especially when their degree is from a so-so university. If you don't have any degrees, it will be even worse since you can only choose those jobs that don't require a degree."

"Such as?"

"Er... a waiter?"

"...what other job will make better money if you don't have a degree?"

"Probably doing marketing for MLM, insurance, investment, and even a host club. Anything that tells you to sell or search for people to buy your product will make a lot of money, or just open a business."

"It isn't stable."

"That's why people go to university, so they can get a stable job. Again, many can't get a job even after they graduate from university."

"Being an adult is hard."

"You should be grateful to your parents who work hard to take care of you."

"That's how it should be." Oreki nodded, then looked at Satoshi. "What will you do in the future, Satoshi? Is it a mangaka?"

"No."

"Really?"

"Yes, I won't become a mangaka in the future."

"That's a shame."

"It is. I just plan to just become a priest at Kaho's shrine."

"...you gigolo."

"Hahaha..."

As the two laughed, inwardly, they knew that the fastest way for a man without a good background to stand up was to seduce a woman with a high status.

Becoming a gigolo, toy boy, or simply a soft rice man, relying on the woman to stand up to the top.

It might appear despicable in the eyes of many, yet those people were just envious that Satoshi had such a chance to do so.

Frankly, in the original, Oreki should have had that chance as he was close with Chitanda; still, his courage wasn't strong enough to express that feeling, and in this world, even though Satoshi had said that he would help Oreki, in the end, he was the one who got close to Chitanda.

Still, as he was close with the four girls, Kaho, Irisu, Ibara, and Chitanda, he knew well that, similar to his life as Ishigami, he had to work harder.

"Let's just aim to become a civil servant."

"...you want to become one, Oreki?"

"It's the most reasonable development if I want to live a good life in the future."

"Well, that's true."

If Oreki were ambitious, he would aim to make a business, but no matter what, his inside was still an energy saver, so he tried to aim for a stable job that wouldn't worry him about anything.

"Then again, it might be nice to visit many places, too."

Visiting this town was a good start, Oreki thought.

"Do it. Do it. From Hokkaido to Okinawa, you should go to all places." Satoshi smiled, thinking that Oreki wanted to change to become better.

"Will you be there, Satoshi?"

"I can't, I will go on a trip with my girlfriend."

"..."

Oreki wanted to beat up Satoshi somehow!

Huffing, he turned around and covered his body with a blanket. "I will sleep first!"

What were you?

A maiden?

Rolling his eyes, Satoshi wondered why it felt like their relationship had become even closer. Then again, sometimes, a male friendship was much more comfortable than a relationship between a male and a female, as one could have fun without worrying.

Yet, as a man, it had been engraved within them that they should search for women, wishing to conquer them, taking them, holding them tightly in their arms unless they had a special hobby.

Still, when they were about to sleep, the door of their room was suddenly opened.

"Huh?"

While Oreki, who was about to fall asleep, was confused, Satoshi looked at Ibara, who appeared to be startled yet staring in his direction.

"Oh, I am in the wrong room. Sorry."

"Be careful."

Oreki covered his face with a blanket, but Ibara's eyes were on Satoshi for a while, clearly expressing a certain meaning to him.

So, as the door was closed, Satoshi also stood up, ready to go out.

"Huh? Where are you going, Satoshi?"

"Toilet."

"Oh."

Satoshi's movement was so quiet that it didn't interrupt Oreki's sleep, who never knew that it would take a while for Satoshi to return to their room.
