I Was Possessed By An Unknown Manga

Chapter 71: Kim Yu-seong Countermeasures Committee

The Dark Student Council!

It was a prestigious student group that secretly governed the private Ichijo Academy.

Its leader was Saionji Kumiko, a direct descendant of the esteemed Saionji family, a renowned floral dynasty in Japan. Even the academys chairman quakes at her command, granting her unparalleled authority within the school.

The current Dark Student Council consists of four members, listed as follows:

President: Saionji Kumiko.

Vice-President: Akagi Shinjiro.

Treasurer: Akagi Minami.

Secretary: Kim Yu-seong.

Among them, the secretary, Kim Yu-seong, was rumored within the academy to be the councils secret weapon.

After all, Kim Yu-seong had earned the title of the strongest man in the academy since the second semester of his first year.

Even the toughest delinquents became docile in his presence, and those who disparaged him for being Korean somehow found themselves transferred to other schools.

At the start of his second year, Kim Yu-seongs dojo breaking spree across all school clubs quelled any rumors about anyone defeating him, leaving behind a legend of causing approximately 200,000 yen (covered by the student council) in damages to club equipment.

A man who stood at the apex of the schools social hierarchy, unbeatable both academically and physically!

He was the king who tamed the jungle-like Ichijo Academy with his fists!

That man was none other than Kim Yu-seong.

However, even someone like Kim Yu-seong couldnt evade one scandalous rumor.

And that was the suspicion of having octopus legs.

Okay. Lets commence the 1st Kim Yu-seong Countermeasure Committee.

One leisurely afternoon in June.

With no club activities scheduled for today, three individuals gathered in the Student Council room, in Kim Yu-seongs absence, for a clandestine meeting.

The Vice-President of the Student Council, Akagi Shinjiro, who also chaired the Kim Yu-seong Countermeasure Committee, explained with a serious expression. He pointed to the wheeled whiteboard, loaded with personally collected information and photos, heavily annotated with a blackboard marker.

At present, there are already seven girls around or associated with Kim Yu-seong. Miss, you should start feeling a sense of urgency.

Upon hearing this, Saionji Kumiko interlaced her fingers, resting her chin on them, and asked,

But Kim Yu-seong hasnt shown clear affection towards anyone yet. Arent you just overthinking?

Bang!!

However, hearing this, Akagi Shinjiro slammed the desk and passionately argued,

No way! Miss! With such a complacent mindset, you wont survive this merciless game of chicken!

Sh-Shinji?

Unlike his usual loyal demeanor, todays Shinjiro was a bit different.

But this, too, was a sincere feeling that stemmed from his concern for her.

He knew this because he had played various games since his childhood.

Maintaining such an ambiguous position now would eventually lead to Miss being the first to be eliminated in this harsh race.

Miss may think theres still a year left, but inversely, its only a year remaining! At this point, where the first semester is ending so uneventfully, without any progress in your relationship with Kim Yu-seong, you will eventually be in a Hora Mo Zenzen position!

Hora Mo Zenzen?

It means becoming the loser in the heroine race!

Thump!

Saionji Kumikos face showed shock upon hearing the advice of her loyal subordinate.

Akagi Minami, who had been quietly observing from the side, chimed in.

I agree with my brothers opinion. Currently, Miss and Kim Yu-seong are in quite an ambiguous relationship. Its closer than normal seniors and juniors, but if you ask if theyre like a couple, it makes you tilt your head.

But if we take it slow

You first met Kim Yu-seong last September, Miss. You havent forgotten that, have you?

Upon hearing Minamis remark, Saionji Kumiko quietly closed her mouth.

She had coincidentally met Kim Yu-seong on the street the day she had secretly left her mansion to experience life as a commoner.

At the time, I was quite shy and couldnt even make proper eye contact with him, but now Ive improved a lot and can converse with him without any issues.

If theres anyone who has undergone the most change in the past year due to Kim Yu-seongs influence, it would definitely be Saionji Kumiko.

Hes been an executive member of the Student Council for over half a year now. Last year, I forced him not to engage in other club activities to increase our time together, but this year, even that is impossible. Its time for you, Miss, to start getting anxious.

Especially since you now have many competitors, unlike before.

Although slightly different from her brother Shinjiro, Minamis advice also contained loyalty and concern for her.

And sensing that sincerity, Saionji Kumiko was able to make a decision.

Okay. Then lets hear it, Shinjiro.

Thank you for your trust, Miss.

Akagi Shinjiro bowed and then began to brief on each item written on the whiteboard.

The increase of females around Kim Yu-seong began with this blonde transfer student.

He said this, pointing at the photo of the blonde half-blood at the top of the whiteboard.

Name, Kishimoto Rika. Shes the only daughter of the famous manga artist Kishimoto Musashi and a half-blood with a British mother. As you can see, she has a striking appearance and is accustomed to grooming herself. She previously worked as a freelance model and has remarkable talent in fashion accessories. Miss President, you might have seen her before.

Recognizing the familiar face, Saionji Kumiko nodded in agreement.

Yes, shes completely different from me in terms of personality.

Her unique self-paced attitude, approachability regardless of gender, and impressive physique and beauty would interest even someone as stoic as Kim Yu-seong.

Okay. Well keep her in mind as a person of interest. Whos next?

This time, Akagi Shinjiro pointed to a girl with red hair, known in the athletic department.

Name, Tojo Karen, the only daughter of Naoto Tojo, the 6th boss of the oldest Yakuza organization in the Kanto region, East Star Association. She inherited her fathers fiery red hair and exceptional athletic skills. She is similar in height to you, Miss, but has a much smaller bust. Though flatness is a status, the chest is one of the biggest weapons for a woman, so you might need to worry less about her.

Shes a small fry. Next.

Name: Alexandra Ivanovna Romanova, a Russian exchange student who came to Japan as part of the sister school project you organized, Miss. The students call her Sasha. Her father, Ivan Vladimirovich Romanov, heads one of the worlds leading corporations, Easter Egg Company, a background comparable to the Saionji conglomerate. Shes a true Romanov, descended from the Russian royal family.

Shes like a tiger

Regrettably, yes. She has the most formidable background among all the mentioned individuals. Frankly speaking, her character overlaps with yours, Miss.

Could you not point out the part thats been subtly bothering me?!

My apologies.

Akagi Shinjiro apologized but still made his point.

However, she is undoubtedly the most dangerous among those mentioned. While others are still gauging their chances with you, Miss, she confessed to Kim Yu-seong right after transferring.

Wh-what was Kim Yu-seongs response?

Its not clear if he took it as a Russian joke, but he didnt give a definite answer.

Thats a relief.

Seeing her reaction, Akagi Minami slyly prodded,

Miss, are you relieved now?

Wh-whos relieved?!

Saionji Kumiko, startled, denied it, while Akagi Minami smirked and said, Just kidding, unless?

Next, Ill introduce the newly appointed teacher this year, Mizuki Nanae.

Why is a teacher being mentioned here?

Based on testimonies that she blushes every time she hears Kim Yu-seongs voice, I thought there might be an unexpected possibility, so I included her.

Kim Yu-seongs voice is indeed pleasant. Sometimes, I even think about recording it to listen to before sleeping.

Miss.

Realizing her slip of the tongue under Shinjiros sympathetic gaze, Saionji Kumiko blushed and said,

I-I havent actually done that, you know?!

To protect the beloved Misss privacy, Shinjiro quickly moved on to the next target.

Next is the active actress and idol, Minato Nao, who recently formed a project group with actors of a similar age.

Oh, Ive seen her. Shes been in many recent ads But does she also like Kim Yu-seong?

Then Shinjiro pushed up his glasses with his middle finger and nodded gravely.

Like him? Its almost at the level of worship.

He read the details of Minato Naos detective agency request, which he had collected personally.

According to this data, right after her enrollment, Minato Nao commissioned a detective agency to regularly supply her with photos of Kim Yu-seong. After hacking her PC and smartphone search records, we deduced that she has a severe muscle fetish, seeming more attracted to Kim Yu-seongs muscles than his face.

Now even his muscles are enchanting women?

As Saionji Kumiko muttered this, Minami beside her nodded and echoed, Indeed.

I was the first to like Kim Yu-seong, but how did things get so complicated? Its almost believable now to call it a twist of fate.

Thats exactly why I said we cant just stand by any longer.

Akagi Shinjiro was moved that, at last, both Miss and his sister seemed to understand his point.

Holding back tears, he pointed with the pointer to the last person listed on the whiteboard.

Finally, we have Ayase Satsuki, who has known Kim Yu-seong the longest.

What? Wasnt that me?

Regrettably, she has been in the same class as Kim Yu-seong since the first semester of the first year. Meaning, she is the only one among your rivals who knows about Kim Yu-seongs past.

How can that be

Fortunately, there has been no sign of her showing significant affection towards Kim Yu-seong. Shes just the person hes most comfortable talking to in class, so shes on the list but can be removed at any time. There is one notable aspect about her, but it seems unrelated to Kim Yu-seong, so Ill skip that.

After Akagi Shinjiros lengthy briefing and the overwhelming influx of new faces, Saionji Kumiko regained her composure by sipping the green tea prepared by Minami.

I appreciate your effort in gathering information, Shinji. But I hope this isnt all youve got?

Akagi Shinjiro then flashed a smile, adjusting his glasses.

Of course not. What Ive presented so far is just the introduction.

Saying so, Akagi Shinjiro pushed the whiteboard aside and projected onto a blank wall a presentation he had prepared in advance.

Kim Yoo-sung (and His Relationships with Women) Response Committee

Project S.U.V.

Project S.U.V?

As Saionji Kumiko murmured as if under a spell, Akagi Shinjiro nodded gravely and said,

This summer, Miss, you must absolutely win over Kim Yu-seong.

Otherwise, theres no hope.
