Inner Voice: All Heroines Hear My Inner Voice

Do you enjoy seeing the protagonist suffer?

As expected of you.

Eiji, you sadist!

Many heroines think so. The boy in question didn't know even if he knew, he wouldn't deny what they said.

He was happy whenever he saw the protagonist suffer because of the green hat he received from him. Still, this time it wasn't just him who did that.

But...

Under the jealous gaze of Tomoya who sat and ate lunch at another table because for some reason, he did not dare to sit at the same table as them.

"Eiji-kun, please move a little." Like a wife, Megumi brought the two bowls of oyakodon they ordered a moment ago. It was basically a dish consisting of white rice, fried chicken breast pieces and a half-boiled egg mixed with sauce and other ingredients.

Although the long seats in front still had plenty of empty space. The girl chose to sit side by side which made Eiji a little surprised.

However, he didn't refuse of course and shifted his body slightly until it was almost against the wall.

"Thank you." Megumi said. She even placed one of her bowls of oyakodon in front of him and prepared chopsticks for him.

That thoughtful act...

It made protagonist Tomoya grit his teeth and his head looked even greener!

{No, Megumi, no... Why are you sitting so close to Eiji and being so attentive to him?!}

{In the past when our relationship was good, you never even did that to me!}

You've never gotten this kind of service from Megumi, Tomoya? That's surprising.

After all, Eiji remembered that in the original work compared to Utaha, Eriri and other heroines, Megumi was the heroine who took the most initiative unintentionally on the protagonist.

Although at that time Megumi had not known the boy for long and had only been invited to his game-making club.

However, that was what made Tomoya like her so much.

It seemed that the things that happened before Eiji messed up the plot were also somewhat different from the original work.

"No, I'm the one who should be thankful that Megumi paid and helped pick up my order too. This makes me feel a little bad, I'll reimburse you later."

Eiji was not short of money and he did not forget to bring his wallet because he always kept it in his inventory.

The thing he said happened because earlier Megumi asked him what he wanted to eat and ordered it.

She ordered the same food as him and said she would treat him to lunch. As for the reason?

"There's no need to pay me back. Didn't I tell you? Eiji-kun, I'm treating you because you've agreed to agree to my request."

"Otherwise, you would have eaten lunch in class with your girlfriends since you brought lunch, right?"

Megumi refused to accept his money and insisted on treating him.

She even casually revealed her knowledge of Eiji having many girlfriends, but instead of thinking he was a bastard she should avoid, she still invited him to have lunch with her, and she did so without any guilt on her face.

Her neutral expression and calm as lake water make her even more beautiful.

This is the charm of Kato Megumi!

She can be indifferent to things that most girls would find embarrassing.

Her temperament might make her suitable to become a cultivator.

But what made Eiji curious was... he wondered if Megumi liked him?

Sure, he could check the girl's positivity level with Leme's help. But, he refrained from doing so because he felt it detracted from the fun.

Sometimes he also enjoyed guessing the intentions of a heroine or any beautiful girl who took the initiative on him.

"That's not wrong and actually quite fair. But instead, let me treat you to a meal next time."

"Sure, I'll wait. But instead of treating me to a meal at the cafeteria or somewhere else. I'm more interested in tasting Eiji-kun's cooking."

"My cooking? Megumi, you think I look like a boy who can cook?"

Eiji pretended not to know his inner voice was heard by the girl and started eating quietly. Although the taste of the oyakodon sold by the cafeteria might be good to other students, to his god's tongue, this food was not good enough and almost not worth it but he would not say so.

He could only be satisfied that he was at least eating with a pretty girl.

Just like the other heroines, Megumi thought the boy had no idea his inner voice could be heard by them.

And yes, she knew she wasn't the only one who could hear the inner voices of Eiji and the protagonists. Although no one had told her, she had observed every action and expression of girls like Utaha and Eriri whenever Eiji or Tomoya's inner voices were heard in the past, from all that she knew they could also hear those voices.

Megumi concluded that at least the people who could hear Eiji and the protagonist's inner voices were the so-called heroines.

So sure, she knew Eiji was good at cooking and the dishes he cooked were so delicious that it would make a girl's clothes rip and pass out while naked.

It was quite scary but as a high school girl, Megumi had a lot of curiosity about the boy sitting and eating next to her.

After knowing him all this time though she knew Eiji was a perverted boy and had a harem that was not normal in the eyes of society. However, she also knew he was not an ordinary person and had superpowers like the harem protagonists in the novels she had read.

Society's rules would not be a problem for him.

Megumi was not an otaku, but for the sake of helping the game project Tomoya had made in the past and becoming the ideal heroine for the game. She had read such novels and played the dating game that the boy had lent her.

The result made her understand a little bit what kind of person Eiji was.

Instead of feeling disgust and hatred, she was actually very attracted to him. That was why she lied that she forgot to bring lunch today so that she would have an excuse to invite Eiji to have lunch with her in the cafeteria.

Megumi who looked innocent and quiet on the surface turned out to be quite a cunning girl. If Tomoya knew this, he would probably choke on the spicy ramen he was eating and cough.

It was fine if the girl did it for him, he would be very happy but she did all that just to have lunch with Eiji!

"I don't know but I always thought Eiji exuded the aura of a versatile person. He can do anything if he wants to."

"Oh? Megumi thinks that way about me? I feel flattered." Eiji looked at Megumi with admiration as she lied without changing her expression and slowly began to eat. He couldn't help but stare at her lips because while chewing food, she ate little by little like a little creature.

How cute but only he and Tomoya realized this. There were many other male students in the cafeteria but they didn't notice Megumi's beauty, or rather they probably didn't see her figure.

From their vantage point, Eiji was seen eating alone at one of the tables! Megumi, are you Mai Sakurajima who hasn't recovered from her puberty syndrome?

You're completely transparent!

With all that, it was no wonder Utaha and Eriri were the losing dogs in the original work. If it weren't for her passive ability, Megumi would also be a popular pretty girl.

But because she had such abilities, she became a hidden gem that only the protagonist Tomoya could originally find.

[Tsk! Tsk! No wonder, no wonder Utaha and Eriri became the losing dogs. Megumi was the final boss in their franchise that Tomoya had fallen in love with in episode 1 from the start.]

[I remember it happened in the scene where Tomoya was walking uphill and caught Megumi's beret hat being blown away by the spring wind.]

[When the boy looked up, he saw Megumi whose hair and skirt were fluttering with cherry blossoms falling around her.]

[As if hit by an electric shock that made his heart pound, the protagonist Tomoya fell in love.]

Utaha: Excuse me? Don't call your girlfriend a lost dog, Eiji. From the start I was only slightly interested in Tomoya before realizing how bad he was. So only a childhood friend heroine like Eriri became a losing dog in the original work!

Eriri: Dog? Who are you calling a losing dog, Eiji? Only heroines with black hair and who are seniors to the protagonist are usually called losing dogs! I'm just unlucky for liking a wishy-washy and indecisive boy like Tomoya in the past.

The two girls complained and threw the losing dog label at each of them.

Still, they shuddered as they recalled the past where they competed for Tomoya's heart.

Back then they were blind and so humble that they didn't realize they had become dog lickers.

In the end the one who benefited the most from their fight was Megumi who had secretly been Tomoya's white moonlight from the start.

How ridiculous!

They didn't realize Tomoya had stepped on their pride as beautiful and arrogant girls.

Thinking of this, Utaha and Eriri felt like beating that boy up. With the Master-Servant contract, their physical strength was enough to break human bones.

"Cough! Cough!"

Tomoya choked on the spicy ramen he was eating and because he suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He coughed and frantically drank water while looking at Eiji and Megumi who were talking while eating together.

The two of them looked intimate.

Tomoya's eyes were so red that a man named Uchiha Madara in another world would probably think he was awakening the Sharingan.

The vengeful Uchiha blood flowed in his body and he was about to resurrect the Mangekyou Sharingan thanks to the accumulation of all the suffering and the green hat Eiji had given him.

Of course, this was only if Tomoya was an uchiha and changed his name from Aki Tomoya to Uchiha Tomoya!

Eiji certainly noticed the protagonist choking on his own food and laughed out loud in his heart.

[Hahaha! Protagonist Tomoya choked on his food and looked almost dead! It was really a good sight to watch.]

Except for the heroines of Saekano, many of them thought Tomoya was pathetic. However, imagining the scene Eiji said, they laughed at it.

Megumi who was at the scene was even amused by what happened to Tomoya at the next table.

He seemed to be listening to what she was saying in class this morning so he was keeping his distance from her even though he still often followed her at school.

Exactly what kind of conversation was that? Megumi was basically just threatening Tomoya that she would report him as a stalker if he continued to deliberately approach her.

If possible, she certainly wanted him to stop bothering her by flaunting his presence. But alas, he was only obedient to keep a certain distance from her.

Tomoya was so annoying.

"But since you want to try my cooking, fine. I'll contact you when the time comes."

When exactly was that?

Megumi swallowed this question because she remembered from his inner voice not long ago this morning, Eiji seemed to be lazy about cooking even though his skills in that regard were very good!

So she rolled her eyes and said, "I hope it's not too long."

"Megumi, are you so impatient to taste it?"

Eiji deliberately did not mention what the girl wanted to taste specifically in a fairly loud voice.

Megumi didn't understand Eiji's ambiguous words that could make people misunderstand, especially Tomoya who was currently eavesdropping on their conversation.

The boy's face looked nervous.

{Megumi wants to taste what? Hey you two are talking about food, right? No way! There's no way Megumi is a girl who would casually want something like that!}

{Ahh! Ahh! Eiji, you bastard! If you dare to dirty her up like you did Utaha and Eriri...}

{I, I will...}

You'll what? Do you want to fight me to the death?

Eiji was curious.

So were the heroines.

{I will not forgive you!}

???

Eiji was disgusted because since when did he need forgiveness?

Especially from the protagonist?

[This protagonist is sick. He overestimated himself and underestimated my innocent conscience.]

Your conscience is innocent?

If it's Eiji, the heroines who know him well believe this because he's so shameless.

How would such a person feel guilty for others, especially a protagonist like Tomoya?

Megumi finally understood what Eiji was doing. So she also deliberately raised her voice a little for Tomoya to hear her clearly.

"Yes, I really can't wait to taste it but not at school. Let's do it at your house, Eiji-kun."

"!!!"

Tomoya who felt his heart hurt as if it was stabbed by a knife because he misunderstood, he thought Megumi couldn't wait to taste Eiji's bananas at his house.

Megumi... She's going to give her virginity to Eiji!

Why would you do that, Megumi?

You should have known Eiji was a bastard!

You should respect your own body more!

Megumi, can only belong to me!

Tomoya's expression distorted and a gloomy aura enveloped him, he looked like an evil spirit filled with jealousy. Many students who were eating in the cafeteria were frightened and wondered if the boy was possessed by the ghosts that inhabited the school?

Just like in other schools, Kuoh Academy also has its share of horror stories. For example, students often see black shadows flying around the school hallways after the sun has almost set.

They think it's a ghost but it's actually Rias and Sona's familiars on patrol or something.

Fun fact, those devils are aware of the misconceptions of many students and still continue with it because they think their school will be more interesting if it has a lot of horror stories.

...

"Achoo!"

At the Occult Research Club.

Rias who was having lunch with her servants suddenly sneezed.

"Rias, do you have a cold? Want a tissue?"

"No Akeno, I'm an ultimate class devil. How could I catch a cold like a human? Even a low-class devil wouldn't do that."

"Ara Ara, I forgot. So what, don't tell me your body is sensitive from thinking about Eiji~?"

Akeno cracked a lewd joke with no regard for her juniors who blushed at what she said.

The junior in question wasn't Koneko of course because if you were talking about the cat girl, she was eating the lunchbox made by the maids at Eiji's house which contained unadon and that was it, she was basically engrossed in eating fried fish and ignoring everything around her.

Koneko really likes fish.

She was really like a cat.

Her older sister, Kuroka also liked the same thing.

The juniors in question were Gasper, Avi and Zekka. The latter two were there because their club collaborated with Rias' occult research club even though they were middle school students.

But Kuoh Academy didn't have a rule that prohibited students in the junior high division from playing in the high school division. The distance problem could be solved with teleportation magic mastered by the devils.

As a human, Zekka was actually reluctant to eat lunch in a place filled with non-humans. But her senior, Avi forced her.

She had no choice but to agree, okay? She didn't want to make her friends sad and lose them!

Oh wait, don't forget Yuuto. He sat next to Gasper and ate quietly without having any inappropriate thoughts in his head. In the past when Eiji gave Yuuto and Gasper genjutsu, he also took precautions so that they would not have perverted thoughts of Rias and the other girls in the occult research club.

They would die by suicide if they did.

In the original work they proved to be no danger to the protagonist's harem, but it couldn't hurt to be on guard. After all, Eiji was the one with the last name Seiya.

"Not even if I think about it a little. My nose is just a little itchy."

"Eh? That's boring."

Akeno said and she continued eating lunch with graceful movements like Yamato Nadeshiko.

The woman's appearance was very deceptive and contrasted with her previous perverted joke.

Rias was silent. Akeno, do I have to get horny in front of my servants for you to think it's not boring?

You perverted girl.

She mocked her queen in her heart.

Suddenly, she remembered something before saying to all her club members.

"By the way, do any of you have any ideas to increase the number of horror stories about our school?"

"Me! Rias-senpai, me! How about adding a sword that can fly by itself? After returning from the world of Trinity Seven, I can do it!"

Are you now a cultivator who can fly using your sword, Avi?

Rias couldn't help but think that way about her junior on this one.

She did so because Eiji also often read novels like that at home. She was influenced by him.

It was that guy's fault.

"Interesting, Avi. Are there any other ideas?"

....

Eiji was also actually a little surprised by Megumi's tacit understanding.

That girl seemed to really hate Tomoya so there would be no possibility of reconciliation between them. After finishing a pleasant lunch with her.

Just in case for fear that Tomoya would do something evil. After all, the protagonist was already blackened because he had been in juvenile prison. This time it wasn't just a joke! Eiji really could order his shadow army to protect his woman.

Megumi did not notice Lars who was secretly hiding in her shadow.

Tomoya would die if he actually had the idea to touch that girl.

[Question, Host.]

Miss System finally couldn't resist opening her mouth again.

What was it this time?

Can't she be a quiet woman like Leme?

[Since when did Megumi become your woman? Please don't make things up because you'll make people misunderstand.]

"....." Are you seriously asking this? Eiji smiled and said, "It's just a matter of time so no one will misunderstand because it's true."

If Megumi heard what the boy said now, she would definitely be surprised and couldn't help calling him...

What?

[Shameless!]

"Aren't you tired of saying that to your host? How about replacing it with I love you so much, host! Kiss me."

[No, I'll never get tired of saying it, host. You are shameless! You're so shameless!]

Miss System passionately expressed her love for her host.

She was a good woman.

Eiji naturally translated her words as expressions of love and pretended to be deaf when she kept calling him shameless.
