My Stepsister in Kyoto

"Where is he?" 

"Ah, over there!" 

On the weekend, Yume and Akatsuki went out together to the stadium where the Sunrise Festival was held. There were so many people since it was one of the famous musical events in the prefecture, but even so, they were able to find Mizuto. 

In the group of the Rakurou Private High concert band club, his appearance was impossible to ignore. 

Leaving his uniform blazer, showing off his white shirt with its sleeves rolled, and showing off his muscular arms, Mizuto helped everyone move the musical instruments that were kept on the bus. 

Yume couldn't look away; Akatsuki was even more so, but unlike Yume, Akatsuki glanced around and was speechless since Mizuto was like a light that attracted moths during the night. 

The majority of members of the Concert Band Club were usually female, and unless they liked the same gender or had a unique hobby, Mizuto's appearance was simply that destructive for them. 

When Mizuto appeared, he attracted everyone's eyes, and no one could look away from him. 

"Dammit, why are you so popular?" 

"Fortunately, you have a girlfriend." 

"Can you help me to get the number one of those girls, Irido-kun?"

"Boys! Be serious! Don't talk any nonsense! Hurry up and work! Don't bother Irido-kun!" 

The boys in the concert band club rolled their eyes, feeling injustice from the different treatment, but they knew that this was an important moment, the first step in the transformation of the concert band club of Rakurou Private High.

"Should I place it here?" Mizuto didn't care much about their conversations and focused on his job. 

"Ah, yes, thank you, Irido-kun." 

The female member smiled sweetly, then took out her handkerchief. "You have a sweat on your forehead. Do you want me to wipe it for you?" 

The temperature was relatively hot, and the sun was all bright, so it was natural for Mizuto to be a little sweaty. 

"It's fine. I might dirty your handkerchief." 

"It-It's fine!" 

Watching how excited and rapid the breathing of the female student was, Mizuto was in silence. He glanced at Mizore, then Reina, and decided not to expect anything from them since their emotional intelligence was rather low. Fortunately, Mizore and Reina weren't his only women. 

"Mizuto, here! Here! I need your help!" Asuka quickly came to the rescue. 

"Sorry." Mizuto left and walked toward Asuka, then helped Kawashima Sapphire to carry her Double Bass, which was so huge that it almost pressed her flat. 

"Th-Thank you, Irido-kun..." Kawashima sighed in relief as she wiped her forehead helplessly. 

"It's fine. Just ask when you need help. I don't have anything to do except for this after all." 

As Mizuto was an oboe and a male, he didn't participate in the Sunrise Festival. While the oboe wasn't suitable for the marching performance, as a male, it was impossible for him to dance around like the female. Well, it wasn't impossible, but he didn't want to, and he might as well be focused on his training with the oboe. 

"Wipe your sweat first. You might fall if you don't be careful." 

Asuka took her handkerchief and wiped the sweat on Mizore's forehead. 

If it was someone else, they would think something else, but Asuka? No one thought anything of her, considering how upbeat her personality was. 

However, Kumiko was different since she knew the truth. Hesitating, when Mizuto was alone, she approached him and said, "You are such a bastard." 

"Oh, you don't ignore me now?" 

Kumiko blushed and felt awkward, but there was something that was more important. "What will you do?" 

"What do you mean?" 

"Don't play stupid with me. You have dated so many members of the concert band club. Are you planning to date all of them?" Kumiko wondered whether she would be one of the targets, which made her tense. It was like she was a newbie player in the game, but suddenly, she met the spot where a boss monster would appear, and the boss suddenly appeared without any precautions. 

However, as a player who thought that the rewards from defeating a boss monster were huge, she also decided to gamble to defeat this monster. 

Unfortunately, she forgot the danger that came from fighting such a monster and she might be eaten by him too. 

"No." 

"Re-Really?" Kumiko felt strangely disappointed.

"I am not that hungry, but more importantly, are you sure that you stay here with me?" 

"What do you mean?" Kumiko was confused by his words. 

"Tsukamoto is going to be jealous, you know?" Mizuto didn't turn his head since he was sure that Tsukamoto Shuuichi was staring in their direction with a unique expression. 

"Huh?!" Kumiko was startled and quickly followed him. "I don't have such a relationship with Shuuichi!" Yes, Tsukamoto might be her childhood friend, but their relationship was far from that, or rather, she tried to avoid such a relationship with him. 

"Is that so? By the way, have you talked with Reina?" 

"Eh? Not yet..." Kumiko felt awkward. 

"Go and talk with her, then." 

"But she has you." 

"There is something that you girls can talk with each other about other than they can talk with me." 

"If you say it like that..." 

Well, Kumiko was sure that she couldn't talk about the problem of the period with Mizuto. 

"By the way, Oumae-san." 

"Hmm?" 

Mizuto extended his fist to Kumiko. "Do your best."

Kumiko stared at him helplessly, then lightly pushed her small fist against his. "Yeah, I will do my best!" 

Still, with this, their relationship returned to how it used to be. 

While Kumiko knew that this might be bad, she didn't hate it and felt happy since there was no need for her to be awkward or try to avoid him. At the same time, if she could do this with Mizuto, then wouldn't it be possible for her to do it with Reina? 

When she looked at Reina, she suddenly happened to meet her friend from middle school who went to a different high school. 

However—

"Kumiko! Kumiko! Introduce me to him!" 

Kumiko's lips twitched, and they thought that it wasn't Mizuto who seduced them, but it was them who was willingly jumping into the pit so they could be together with him. 

Watching her cute middle school friend whose body had grown into a womanly shape and even ready to throw herself to Mizuto, Kumiko was speechless. 

Can you not be so handsome?!

However, Kumiko's complaint was meaningless since even if she tried to persuade her friend not to jump into the pit, it was impossible. 

With that said the Sunrise Festival is about to start. 

Mizuto just stood by the female teacher's side, Michie Matsumoto, who was also part of the advisor along with Noboru Taki. 

As the two finished their speech and brought everyone's spirit to a high position, Michie looked at Mizuto and asked, "What are you planning to do?" 

"My stepsisters and my friend are here. I will go there." 

"Go back when everyone is finished," Michie said reluctantly, but she didn't stop him. 

Leaving the concert band club, Mizuto walked Yume and Akatsuki, who welcomed him with a smile. 

"How is it?" 

"You don't play?" 

"I am a newbie. How can I play?" Mizuto said with a smile, causing Yume and Akatsuki to roll their eyes. 

If this guy was a newbie, then what were the others?

Still, with his companion, the two became more excited as they talked while watching each of the schools perform at the Sunrise Festival. 

Their uniform was cute, and their white, smooth legs moved skilfully, causing their short skirts to flutter from time to time, showing their shapely butts that were covered by safety pants. 

"Your eyes. Where are they looking?" Yume asked with a smile. 

"I am looking at their performance." Mizuto was serious. "They seem to be so powerful." 

"...." Yume and Akatsuki. 

"By the way, the midterm test is near. Do you want to make another bet?" Mizuto looked at Yume. 

*Shudder~!*

Yume knew that this guy planned something bad, but she never feared the challenge. 

"Okay! If I win, I will ask you any requests! If you win, I will be your little sister for a month!" 

"Great." 

Mizuto agreed, but Yume felt a bit regretful since she felt that a month was too long. 

However, Akatsuki rolled her eyes and rubbed his thighs occasionally, causing him to glance at her and think to punish her later when he went home. 

"Ah, they are coming!" 

The energetic and exciting sound of the "Yellow Magic Orchestra - Rydeen" echoed, and the concert band club of Rakurou Private High started their performance! 

Watching how Reina performed with a smile as she glanced in their direction, Mizuto also smiled in relief, but he knew that this was the beginning and the real challenge was about to start.
