“Senpai...”

The pain took Harunaka by surprise, and she really wanted to stand up. However, her shoulders were pressed down by Senpai, so only she could sustain the great pain. The waves of pain made her wheeze while she breathed.

Her face was pale, and her cheeks twitched. She pinched her thighs by both of her hands in the medicated water to relieve the pain, but it did not work. Her body was shaking like a leaf, she felt dizzy, and everything was a blur in her eyes.

However, even though she was in such anguish, Harunaka did not cry out because she felt that her image in front of Senpai would be destroyed if she did. She did not want to leave the wrong impression on him...

Her Senpai was perfect in her eyes. She wanted to leave the same perfect impression on him.

“Just hold on for a moment. If you feel pain, you can cry out to relieve it.” Kimura Kazuki looked at Harunaka in astonishment. Although streams of tears were flowing down her face, she suppressed the pain with force. He remembered that he cried his heart out during his medicated bath in his previous life, his voice even became husky.

Upon hearing that, Harunaka gritted her teeth and shook her head. Looking at her, Kimura Kazuki handed over the towel to her. She took over the towel subconsciously and stuffed the towel inside her mouth, grunting noises could be heard from her mouth.

Girls’ tolerance for pain is much greater than boys. As he was thinking, he counted the seconds in his mind.

A minute later, Kimura Kazuki’s right hand, which was pressing at Harunaka’s fair shoulder raised gradually. He pressed on her head gently, and a stream of reiki flowed from his right palm into her head.

After around half a minute, Kimura Kazuki asked, “How do you feel?”

Harunaka was in so much pain that her consciousness was beginning to fade out, but once she heard of this request from her Senpai, she tried to focus on how she felt. She

noticed that the pain was alleviated, and she regained clear vision gradually, “It’s not that painful anymore.”

Another minute passed...

“How about now?” “It’s a bit numbing. Uh... With a slight pain.”

“And now?”

“There’s some pain, but my whole body is numb...”

Upon hearing that, Kimura Kazuki continued inserting reiki into her. The threads of reiki entered Harunaka’s body, dispersing the toxic of the herbs out from her body. Every medicine has side effects and the medicated-bath was not an exception. Though the Dragon Bone Soup could improve one’s physical standard, that did not mean that it would not bring any adverse effects.

The medicated bath would dissolve the medicinal properties inside the body, including the toxins. It would be a burden on the body if these toxins were not cleared off.

Of course, this was not a crucial point.

Although the Dragon Bone Soup could make one stronger, its medicinal properties were tremendous. If there was not any practitioner providing reiki to protect one’s meridian, the meridian would be injured easily. This was also the reason why he had to be with her.

It would be fortunate for an ordinary person’s body to function if his meridians were damaged, moreover improve his health...

“How about now?” As he thought, Kimura Kazuki continued asking.

“Um...” Harunaka was squinting comfortably and let out a voice like a cat’s while listening to Senpai’s words. She was shocked and covered her mouth immediately, without speaking a single word anymore.

After hearing that, Kimura Kazuki understood the situation.

Harunaka was ashamed. Since Senpai was no longer speaking suddenly, she got nervous, so she changed the topic and asked him about the question inside her mind since yesterday, “Senpai... why are you treating me so well?” Her voice was as low as a mosquito when she spoke the last few words.

Kimura Kazuki understood what Harunaka was asking. Even though he received money and accepted the task to teach Harunaka Kendo, those did not include the Dragon Bone Soup and all these... He also improved Harunaka’s physical standard for the battle with Yayoi Momoi and Katsuki Sugawara and revealed his real strength.

What Harunaka did not know was, the reason Kimura Kazuki did all those was to accomplish her mother, Furuhashi Sakurakyu’s obsessiveness. As for exposing his real strength in front of an ordinary person, he was never really concerned. For him, getting exposed was nothing... It would be useful to expose his real strength sometimes. Therefore, he would never try to hide or cover it up.

Like just now, if he did not let Harunaka know about his advantages, he was afraid that she would not be convinced of the effects of the Dragon Bone Soup, and she might even see him as a swindler.

Of course, he did not clarify all of this to Harunaka.

Kimura Kazuki explained, “Since I will be in the junior year next year, I will not take part in any activities to focus on my studies to get into the University of Tokyo. I had been hoping to do something for the school before junior year... That is why I took part in the Jade Dragon Flag Competition... Since I participated in the competition, my goal is to be the nationwide championship, and I want to give up on neither the championship of the Men’s Team nor the Women’s Team. I guess this will be my contribution to the school.”

“Why do I feel like you are lying to me,” Harunaka was already not in any pain. After she heard him, she grinned and answered, “But... I’m going to trust you because you said

it.” After she had finished her sentence, she kept repeating the words “University of

Tokyo” in her mind.

It would be impossible for her to get into the university with her performance now. But... since she did make up her mind to go for tuition classes, she would not give up this time. She would make tons of effort and put her heart on her academics.

Harunaka’s words were as if she was expressing something, but Kimura Kazuki did not think further. He only told Harunaka what he wanted her to know. Whether she believed him or not, it was not his problem anymore.

After that, he did not stop transferring reiki with his palm, but he would ask for her condition after every five minutes.

Half an hour later, he realized that the water in the bathtub was turning from dark brown to black gradually. He stopped transferring reiki from his palm and said with satisfaction, “It’s over. I’ll head out first, and you can clean this up. You should take a shower to rinse off the impurities which came out from your body after letting out the water in the bathtub.”

“Okay.” Harunaka stared at the water inside the bathtub. It had turned into black, and it was emitting an indescribable smell. She felt ashamed. She had been taking care of her body all this time, so she did not expect so many impurities to be discharged after the medicated bath.

It was only after another half an hour did Harunaka come out of the bathroom. She gazed at Kimura Kazuki, who was sitting on the sofa and called him, “Senpai.”

“How are you feeling?”

Harunaka was already dressed, and her cheeks were rosy. She looked like a new person. Her first medicated bath gave the most significant effect, so she experienced a great change.

“I feel like I’m floating, I feel as light as a feather. Also... I felt like everything is lighter in my hands.”

Kimura Kazuki nodded his head upon hearing that. The Dragon Bone Soup was a fast-effect prescription, so it was normal for Harunaka to have such feelings, “You should be very clear about the changes in your body. Just continue practicing for later

and tonight, you should be able to handle such changes. As for your opponents for the Tokyo District Qualifiers tomorrow, there should not be any unexpected events as long as you are not careless.”

Harunaka was agitated, but her Senpai continued before she could speak, “Since there are no unexpected events, I’ll be leaving now.”

“Well... Okay...” Harunaka opened her mouth, but she could not find any excuse to make him stay. She could only nod her head dejectedly.

After Senpai left, she perceived something. She turned her head and saw Akino, who was boring holes into her from the second floor. It gave her quite a shock.

“Harunaka... how many times have you done ‘it’?”
