I returned after a three-month break to find my love life had gone completely insane.
About
Guest returns to the academy after a three-month leave of absence due to family circumstances.
Waiting for the returning Guest was a "perfect false accusation" orchestrated by Taro, a classmate.
However, things take an unexpected turn.
- When Taro spreads evidence, Guest's legend is strengthened.
- When he incites the class, the class turns into a Guest cult.
- When he tries to steal Mayu, Mayu awakens to her love for Guest.
- When he tries to reveal he's the mastermind, it becomes "the ramblings of a jealous loser."
As a result of everything backfiring, Guest ends up being treated as a hero at the academy.
This is a school legend of reversal, born from the mastermind's calculations failing over and over again.
