The Fate of the Protagonist Who Chose the Harem Ending - Episode 32

The Lovable Idiot

“Is Ichijou Makoto here?!” 

A loud voice echoed, searching for Ichijou Makoto. 

It was so loud it reverberated through the hallway. And it likely reached the neighboring classrooms as well. 

Hearing the commotion, Shizuku and I headed toward the source of the voice. 

“I’m Ichijou. What do you want?” 

“Good! Ichijou Makoto! I’m not a fan of beating around the bush!” 

“O-Oh…?” 

In the 2-A classroom, Ichijou and Oumi-kun faced off. 

Curious students from various classes began to gather, including us. We were wondering what was about to happen. 

“And I’m pissed at the people badmouthing Imakoga!” 

“What are you trying to say?” 

“So right now, I’m going to show you with my actions!” 

As soon as Oumi-kun said this, Imakoga-san appeared. Her face was flushed red. 

“Idiot, pervert, creep… You’re so bold…” 

Her words were harsh. But her tone was soft, almost affectionate. 

It became clear to everyone how they felt about each other. 

Some astute onlookers even murmured, 

“Is this a public declaration of stealing her away?” 

Imakoga-san stood beside Oumi-kun, facing him directly. 

She carefully removed her glasses, worried they might break. 

Yeah, no way. Even I couldn’t pull something like this off. 

But Oumi-kun must have decided this was the only way to resolve everything. 

This act showed just how much they cared for each other. 

It was a declaration that neither would let go. 

Even Imakoga-san, known for being reserved, proved she could make such a bold move for someone she loved. 

But still, let me say it: Oumi-kun, you’re an idiot. In the best way. 

Before Ichijou and everyone watching, the two kissed. 

Screams erupted.

“Kyyaaaaaaa!!!” 

“Whoaaaaaa!!!” 

High-pitched squeals and roars filled the air. 

Imakoga-san wrapped her arms around Oumi-kun’s neck, kissing him. 

It was clear she wasn’t being forced; this was mutual. 

The two had decided to do this together—they wanted it. 

“Ichijou Makoto! I’m taking Imakoga away from you! And if anyone dares badmouth her, I won’t hold back! You’ve been warned!” 

With that declaration to everyone, Oumi-kun left the classroom. He took Imakoga-san with him. 

As they passed by, I heard Imakoga-san murmuring softly. 

“Idiot, reckless, lecher, pervert, liar… Thank you. I love you.” 

Her tone was calm but sweet. It was mixing affectionate insults with gratitude and a confession. 

Meanwhile, Ichijou stood frozen, his mouth agape. He was unable to process what had just happened. 

Hey, Ichijou. You’re still alive, right? 

Poor guy… Stay strong… 

From a third party’s perspective, though, this was pretty entertaining. 

With this, only the oddball of the financial elite, Kanefune-senpai, remains. 

It’s almost funny. 

Still, why didn’t Ichijou try to stop her? 

It’s strange. 

Did he just create a harem and fail to manage it? 

Now, only Kanefune Mahou remains as the last member of the harem. 

But honestly, who knows what her deal is? 

She might have quietly left the harem even before Shizuku. 

And then there’s the lingering question on everyone’s minds: 

Why didn’t Ichijou do anything?
