Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom

And it’s really terrible that my boyfriend is so good at tying other girls’ hair.

only.

"Then you are who you are now." Oreki said. "Since I can be so calm in front of the camera, now I'm trying to find this feeling."

I see.

indeed.

Airi also knows that when he takes pictures, he feels like a different person.

Don't panic.

In other words, Oreki-san hopes that she can find the feeling she had at that time.

Get used to the feeling at that time.

Then learn how it felt at that time and finally master the feeling at that time.

"Uh...well, I understand." Sakura said.

"You didn't hear it, then you're going to call me instructor!" Oreki said.

"Eh!"

"I didn't hear it," Oreki said.

"Yes, it's the instructor!" Sakura quickly puffed up her chest.

then.

The two went to the playground together.

Sakura wants to change not only her personality, but also her own weaknesses.

Her physical fitness is very poor.

So I want to improve.

But there is no shortcut to this kind of thing, you can only strengthen training.

And Oreki thinks she is a very perseverant person.

Her academic ability was also very poor before, probably even worse than Megumi's, but after Takaharaji-san started a class, she immediately signed up, and her grades improved a lot, and she was even on par with Kushida. up and down.

While talent is one, perseverance is also a factor.

in this way.

About 10 minutes later.

"Oreki, Oreki-san..."

"No, instructor... I can't survive anymore. I can't run anymore."

Sakura-san simply chose to give up.

Because Sakura's physical fitness is indeed very poor.

"Yes, I'm sorry..." Sakura-san began to squat down and gasp for air.

Running, fast running, etc. are too, too difficult for her.

There's not much to say about this.

Oreki knew that Ichinose's physical fitness was also very poor, and Sakura's configuration was similar to Archangel Ichinose's, so it was really difficult to carry a big ball and then run so far.

but.

Don't forget it.

It's not like nothing can be done.

"I think you can hold on a little longer," Oreki said. "And now, move your hand over and I will run with you."

"Eh...ah...well."

Sakura thought she would die if she ran away again, but Oreki-san had already stretched out his hand.

And she's not the type to reject people very well.

So I had to extend my hand.

But when she reached out cautiously, she found that she was being held by the other party.

Then Oreki seemed to want to pull her up.

Meow.

This is no longer possible.

However, Sakura reluctantly stood up again, feeling that she still had to go through hellish running.

Suddenly discovered.

The body becomes warm.

The feeling of being on fire with your rapid breathing seemed to have disappeared.

Not only that.

There is a feeling that the body has been reborn, as if the pain caused by excessive running has completely disappeared.

My body felt like it was flying.

"this is……"

Sakura found this feeling amazing.

"What happened?" Oreki-san looked over with dark green pupils.

Because of the close distance, Sakura directly caught Oreki-san's gaze.

"..." Sakura.

Forehead.

Didn't Oreki-san feel it?

"Well...it doesn't seem to be that uncomfortable anymore," Sakura said.

Of course.

Because Oreki-san just provided her with the [Recovery] ability, restoring her body to the time before she ran away.

And now.

"Humans can't run that far in the beginning," Oreki said. “Through continuous hard work and persistence, at a certain moment, I surpassed the limit that I thought I couldn’t surpass at the beginning.”

"So when you feel like you are suddenly no longer tired, then you have broken through yourself." Oreki said.

"Is this so..." Airi said.

So she just exceeded her limit?

"Now, can we continue running?" Oreki said.

"Yeah." Sakura nodded quickly.

She doesn't feel tired now. So you can keep running.

"Then continue," Oreki said. "Then run ten more laps around the playground."

In fact, he can stop supporting Sakura at this time.

Her body should return to the relaxed state it was in when she wasn't running in the first place.

only.

Oreki-san has his own considerations. Sakura's physical fitness is very poor. She will be out of breath after about two to three hundred meters. Then every time she is waiting for her to be out of breath, she uses physical contact such as shaking hands to use her recovery ability. .

It's easy to be suspicious.

Therefore, if you keep supporting her to run, you will always maintain physical contact, which can release her recovery ability at any time, allowing her body to return to a state where she can continue running.

So this is Oreki-san

But for Sakura, you should feel that your body has recovered, so according to your character of not liking troublesome people, you should timidly say that she can run away by herself.

Instead... when Oreki led her to run, she just blushed and moved forward.

This made Oreki feel a little strange.

However, if Sakura-san can break through her, then the mission can be considered accomplished.

Yes.

Although her body continued to recover due to the intervention of her recovery ability, her muscles also had memory.

so.

Even if I no longer run with her in the future, she can easily achieve good results with muscle memory.

in this way.

The two began to run around the playground.

When Oreki met Horikita Manabu last year, he said that even when he was busy, he never forgot to exercise.

I get up very early every day, exercise first, and then go to the student union or classroom.

But after Horikita's brother left school, there were very few students who chose to get up early.

"That one seems to be Chabashira-sensei."

After running six laps, Sakura-san suddenly noticed a figure with a single ponytail.

The other party was wearing women's sportswear, tall and tall, and had a single ponytail tied up.

Then there was a white towel draped over his shoulders.

It seems to be intended to be wiped off when running and sweating.

Fully equipped.

Oreki looked over and quickly confirmed.

Um.

That one is indeed Chabashira.

Teacher Chabashira is also a fierce person, and she has always had a knot in her heart after Oreki-san didn't intervene in the unanimous special examination of Chabashira's class nine years ago.

And students up to this year did not give up.

He even wanted to trick Horikita into taking charge of the class.

but.

"But what we need to do now is keep running, right?" Oreki said. "It's not good to be distracted."

"Ah...I'm sorry, Oreki-san."

"Wrong name."

"Hug, I'm sorry, instructor!" Sakura-san quickly corrected her attitude.

"I can not hear!"

"Sorry, instructor!"

So Sakura Airi continued to run forward with the support of Oreki-san.

"..."

And not far away.

Since he had already run around the school, Chabashira stopped under a tree to rest.

He wiped his forehead with a towel.

It is her habit to run every morning.

Proper exercise can keep your brain clear throughout the day.

But, as expected, I felt dizzy.

Because these days, Oreki Houtarou always overlaps with the self-sacrificing boy in his memory.
