Takasugi-kun Finds Out Nakamori-san Became an Explorer

Lately, something had been bothering me.

It was Shiraishi’s lunch.

Why? Because—somehow—he always had the exact same bento as Nakamori-san.

Why!?

Hmm… my brilliant intellect soon arrived at the answer.

Of course! Nakamori-san must’ve told her mother that Shiraishi is poor, and now her kind-hearted mom is volunteering to give him meals out of charity!

As expected of the woman who raised the girl who will one day become my wife.

She must be a truly generous soul.

…Well, I don’t feel even a millimeter of desire to feed Shiraishi myself, though!

After lunch, Nakamori-san and Yamada-san, along with Aoyama and Shiraishi, were all happily chatting together.

In truth, that seat next to Nakamori-san—that should have been mine.

Two couples, eating lunch together and enjoying each other’s company.

He’s really in the way.

Their conversation seemed unusually animated.

What were they talking about?

I leaned in slightly, curious—and then I heard something shocking.

Nakamori-san became an explorer.

What would I do if the woman destined to become my wife got hurt!?

What was she thinking!?

Wait… it must be her brother. That gorilla must’ve invited her.

Why would he do something so unnecessary!?

Then I heard something else. They were talking about… fluffy things?

What was that about?

Apparently, Nakamori-san had tamed a rabbit and a puppy.

How adorable. So fitting for her.

She really has excellent taste!

My family has a large yard—we could easily keep a rabbit there with no issues.

And lately, there have been some dangerous incidents around. A puppy would be perfect as a watchdog.

Which means, when she comes to marry into my family, there will be no problem at all bringing them along!

…Wait a second!

My sharp brain struck again with a brilliant idea.

Next year, her older brother—that gorilla—is graduating.

After that, as a professional explorer, he’ll be diving into dungeons almost every day.

That means his level will soar ahead, and Nakamori-san won’t be able to keep up.

That’s when I’ll strike.

I’ll invite her into my party.

And once she’s in my party, it’ll be natural to exchange contact info!

Party members need to be able to get in touch in case of emergencies.

Think back to middle school!

When we got split into different classes during advancement, I couldn’t talk to her at all.

But if we’re in the same party, that wouldn’t be an issue.

Even if we end up in different classes, we’ll still meet up as party members.

Perfect!

I’ll become an explorer too, and when that gorilla graduates, I’ll invite her into my party!

I’m on fire today!

I’m getting excited just thinking about it.

📘 Translator’s Notes (Chapter: 高杉君は中森さんが探索者になったと知る)

  • 高杉君 (Takasugi-kun): This chapter switches to a comedic monologue from Takasugi’s POV. His inflated ego and delusions are exaggerated for effect.

  • 白石 (Shiraishi): The male protagonist who defeated a Lich and became A-rank. Takasugi sees him as a love rival.

  • “That gorilla”: His nickname for Misuzu’s brother, Kenta, due to his strength and overprotectiveness.

  • モフモフ (mofumofu): An onomatopoeic word in Japanese that evokes fluffiness—often used to describe soft animals.

  • Taming small animals: A comedic twist—while others tame dragons or beasts, Misuzu tames a bunny and puppy, making her stand out in a cute way.

  • Bento symbolism: In Japanese culture, sharing or matching bento boxes can carry romantic undertones or imply domestic connection—Takasugi wildly misinterprets this.

  • Delusional romcom tone: The author writes Takasugi with an unreliable narrator voice; everything he assumes is baseless but entertaining.
