Ch.268School Trip (7)

Field Trip Day.

We resolutely left home right away.

“Sigh… I’m jealous. Everyone going on a field trip together.”

Mika wore a pouty expression. She had mentioned her school’s field trip was next week. Not being able to be with me seemed to make her quite sad. I feel disappointed too.

“Mika! Just hang in there for a few days.”

I said, giving her a sticky kiss.

“Okay.”

Mika nodded and nestled into my arms.

“Alright. Is everyone here? We’ll head to Tokyo Station first, then transfer directly to the Shinkansen.”

Our homeroom teacher announced.

That statement triggered my trauma from traveling in Japan.

You shouldn’t underestimate Tokyo Station or Osaka Station. Memories of ending up in completely wrong places because I just assumed “JR line” came flooding back. Private railways and JR were terrifyingly far apart from each other.

We all boarded the train together. Just getting on the train was already exciting.

Since it was morning, the train was packed with office workers. Our group of students in casual clothes attracted quite a bit of attention in that compartment.

The office workers looked at us with somewhat wistful eyes.

“Those were the good days…”

“Yeah. Back then, I really didn’t have a care in the world.”

Somehow… I could strongly feel the weight of being a working adult. This overwhelming heaviness…!! That’s right. Working at a company ages people faster. Even at the same age, freelancers somehow seemed to age less. I don’t know why.

It was the same in my original world. After graduation, my seniors and juniors who got normal jobs just turned into middle-aged men. Getting married and having kids, they completely settled into that middle-aged man vibe.

But I have to admit, working life is pretty shitty. I reaffirmed my determination to somehow succeed as a freelancer.

———

Soon, the train arrived at Tokyo Station.

“Nom nom nom.”

While we were moving, Umi had already purchased Tokyo Banana faster than anyone else and was eating it. Right. That strange thing everyone ends up buying when they go to Tokyo. Tokyo Banana. It tastes good too.

Then, I came face to face with the Shinkansen.

“WOOOOOAH!!! THIS IS THE SHINKANSEN!!!!”

It’s the fastest train in Asia!!! I couldn’t ride it even when I traveled to Japan before. It was so damn expensive!! So I took an uncomfortable overnight bus instead!!! I really hated that!!!

“Hahaha. Shota, you’re so excited.”

Eri said with a laugh.

“When else would I get to ride something like this!”

I shouted loudly. So this is why the field trip fee was so expensive!!

Everyone from our school was from the countryside, and they all seemed as excited as I was about riding the Shinkansen.

“Alright. Let’s move quietly, everyone. We don’t want to disturb others.”

Our homeroom teacher said, clapping her hands.

“Shinkansen…!! This is where killers usually fight in the compartments or have bloody battles!”

I shouted. The decisive moment happens when the compartment momentarily darkens as we pass through a tunnel!! That’s the standard trope!!

“Again! Only an otaku would say something like that.”

Taiga immediately pinched my side.

Anyway, we headed to our compartment. The Shinkansen’s layout was simple.

Four seats were arranged facing each other. So four people could sit together.

I immediately took a window seat. That meant three more people could sit next to me.

Eri, Umi, Taiga, Tina, and Kana exchanged glances. Five people… that’s too many. The competition would be even fiercer if we included Sachisu and Frill from our group.

“Shota, will you decide?”

Eri asked, exuding a strange pressure.

“…….”

So the choice falls to me after all. This is the fate of a harem master.

“Alright!!! First, Sachisu!! Come here!!”

However, my first seed pick was already decided.

“Hey!! Why is my name coming up in this situation?!”

Sachisu immediately got angry.

“Come on!!! On the Shinkansen, you absolutely have to sit next to a same-sex friend!!!”

While I wanted to enjoy my harem, I also wanted to ride the train with a male friend.

“No way! I want to be alone with Frill…”

“Are you embarrassed of me, Sachisu?! Are you embarrassed to ride with me?!”

I immediately threw a tantrum.

“Yes, I am.”

Sachisu said flatly. That hurts.

But I’m a man with tolerance.

“Fine. It pains my heart, but if that’s Sachisu’s wish… I am Sachisu’s loyal subject after all.”

I gazed out the window wistfully. Ah… I felt like I could compose a heartfelt poem right now.

“Look at this two-faced guy running his mouth again.”

Taiga chuckled.

“Loyalty-claiming traitor…”

Eri added her comment.

Well, can’t be helped. I had the task of filling my harem to capacity.

“Then let’s play rock-paper-scissors to determine the three people who will sit in the seats.”

I suggested.

“The rest can sit on my lap.”

I said simply.

Eri, Umi, Taiga, Tina, and Kana made five. I needed to put two on my lap. But it wasn’t a problem. I had now achieved ultra-high-school-level specs.

“Wait!! So losing is actually the prize?”

Umi said.

“Exactly. Getting to cuddle like a doll during the Shinkansen ride.”

Eri said.

“Hmm. So I need to strategically lose. Interesting.”

Kana smiled slyly.

“Rock, paper, scissors!!”

Just as everyone was about to play, I blocked Kana and Tina.

“You two can win or lose at will anyway. Cover your eyes.”

I covered their eyes with my hands.

These two boasted superhuman reflexes like mine. They could instantly assess what the others would throw and respond accordingly. How do I know? Because I can do it too. For fair competition, we had to cover their eyes.

“Tch.”

“Tsk.”

Kana and Tina clicked their tongues.

“Rock, paper, scissors!!”

Everyone began the rock-paper-scissors match, all trying to lose on purpose.

And the results were decided.

———

In one compartment of the Shinkansen, I was enjoying my harem.

Squish-!

On my left was a slightly brown chocolate tank, and on the other side was a milky white tank.

On the left was Eri’s bottom, and on the other side was Tina’s. Damn. This is racial integration. All butts are excellent. I had an epiphany about love for humanity.

I fondled their bodies. Ah. This is paradise. Paradise.

“Damn… I was confident in my luck.”

“Will there be a chance to switch seats later?”

“This is the worst…”

Umi sat beside me, Taiga sat across from me, and Kana sat next to Taiga.

“Seats? I’ll let you switch according to turns if you want.”

I said.

“Hmm… really?”

At that moment, Eri spoke in a strangely seductive tone, then began to slightly wiggle her bottom.

It wasn’t just wiggling. She was subtly stimulating my lower body, wedging my big magnum between her buttocks.

Eri…!! You temptress…!!

“We can switch seats, but Eri stays fixed. That’s the privilege of the main wife.”

I immediately obeyed the command of my lower half.

“That’s not fair…”

Umi glared at Eri. Eri seductively stuck out her tongue.

———

Anyway, we ended up playing various games under the pretext of switching seats. The journey would be boring otherwise.

We played Old Maid, Daifugo (a card game all Japanese people know), and other games.

However, everyone overlooked one thing.

‘You get sleepy on trains. This is a universal fact.’

Moreover, the Shinkansen was a high-speed train. It traveled at high speed but the vibration was minimized to a pleasant level. The rhythmic beat of the metronome-like vibration was a bonus.

“Zzzzzz…”

Umi was already asleep with Tokyo Banana still in her mouth. It was the first time I’d seen someone fall asleep while eating.

Taiga and Kana had also fallen asleep, leaning on each other’s shoulders. They usually kept each other in check, but seeing them sleep in such harmony was so cute that I unconsciously took a photo. This is why I enjoy having a harem. A harmonious harem is simply a man’s dream. Just having one is a life achievement.

“Shota… warm.”

Tina was already sleep-talking, using me as a sofa.

“Shota should take a nap too. They say when two people sleep close together… they can have good dreams.”

Eri spoke in a sweet tone, leaning her body against me. Alright. For this moment, I’ll be a recliner seat for Eri and Tina. I made that resolution.

Feeling the sensation of firm buttocks pleasantly pressing against my lower body, I too fell asleep.

——–

Thud-!

I unconsciously opened my eyes to the pulsating vibration of the Shinkansen.

“Ah… I slept well.”

Honestly, I hadn’t been sleeping well lately because I was building up my novel reserves. Because of that, I ended up getting an exceptionally good sleep.

When I opened my eyes… something felt sticky in my lower body. It was moist, you could say…

That’s when I noticed Eri and Tina’s embarrassed expressions.

“Shota… you’re healthy.”

“My bottom got wet.”

Eri and Tina said with blushing faces, fidgeting.

“Ah…”

Only then did I grasp the situation.

Damn. I had a wet dream. Even though I had released so much yesterday… the stimulation from the two bottoms was too strong. I must have unconsciously fired while sleeping.

Thankfully I was wearing dark jeans… if I had been wearing light-colored pants, it would have been a disaster given the amount.

“This guy… pfft-hahaha!!”

Taiga was about to shout while laughing.

“T-Taiga!! Stop!! Everyone will hear!”

I panicked.

What… damn, what should I do? It seems to be giving off a smell too… it was strangely sticky!!!

“Let’s just leave it as is.”

It would dry soon anyway. When we get to the lodging, I could just throw my pants and underwear in the coin laundry and change. All would be fine.

“Shota… you’re surprisingly insensitive in unexpected ways.”

Umi said with an astonished expression.

“Then… I’ll just stay slightly wet too and not change.”

At that moment, Eri made a shocking statement.

“Me too.”

Tina also mumbled.

“No… you don’t need to do that… it’s uncomfortable.”

I condemned that insane statement.

“Having Shota’s trace left on me gives me a sense of fulfillment… anyway, that’s how it is.”

Eri said, slightly blushing.

“The satisfaction of having made Shota wet? It’s like a medal.”

Tina seemed to agree with that crazy talk.

“But it must be uncomfortable… what will you do with your pants and underwear?”

At that point, Kana asked.

“Huh? At the lodging, I’ll use the coin laundry…”

“Using a coin laundry will damage your clothes! They’ll get lint! Leave it to me!!”

Kana said with strangely shining eyes.

“Wait! Are you trying to take both the pants and underwear?! No way. I’ll give up the underwear. But the pants are mine.”

Taiga suddenly intervened.

“………..”

I was once again convinced that our girlfriends were secretly perverts.

Anyway, without any further incidents, we safely arrived at Kyoto Station.
