After Genderswap Reincarnation, I Raised the Strongest Player

Chapter 4: Straight Ball

Lamont had a sweet dream that night.

He dreamt that he accepted Shaelyns proposal and officially became lovers.

In the dream, she brought him to the beach, and inside the waterfront villa, he pushed her onto the bed and took off her clothes piece by piece

It was then his phone vibrated and roused him from his dream.

He groggily picked up the phone with a bit of displeasure, Hello? Who is this?

It was such a nice dream, and yet

Have you decided yet? Want to go grab breakfast together? Shaelyns voice was heard through the phone.

Lamonts mind went from being idle to instantly running at full throttle, Ah o-of course, Ill be there soon. Wait for me.

Mhm, Ill wait at the main entrance of the west dining hall.

After hanging up the call, Lamont peeked at the time, and it was only 8 AM.

It was the weekend, so none of his roommates were awake yet.

He slapped his face to wake himself up and then got off the bed only to feel his wet underwear rubbing against his crotch.¹

Oh great

Ten odd minutes after the call, Shaelyn finally met up with Lamont.

It seemed that he got up in a rush as his clothes were still a little messy.

Ugh, I cant stand to look at him.

In any case, this could also be considered as going on a date with a girl. Even if he was in a rush, the least he could do was to make himself look presentable.

No wonder he couldnt find a girlfriend.

Idiot.

Even if she was cursing at Lamont in her heart, the latter was still her past self, so Shaelyn endured it and helped him tidy up instead, Theres no need to be in such a rush, I dont mind waiting a little longer.

Lamonts body stiffened up.

Shes actually helping me tidy up my clothes?

In a public space no less, in front of all the students!

The peanut gallery² was looking at them, dumbfounded.

Why is she doing this for me?

Could she really have fallen for me?

Its done, Finished with her task, Shaelyn held Lamonts hand in a very natural fashion and smiled, Lets go eat.

Lamonts brain stopped working then.

We Were holding hands

My first time holding a girls hand

So, a girls hands are this soft

Lamont? Shaelyn called out to him before he was completely lost in thought.

Cough Lamont coughed lightly to gloss it over, Yeah, lets go together

Shaelyn smiled sweetly at him, then turned away and rolled her eyes at an angle he couldnt see.

Idiot, idiot, idiot!

Was I really such a hopeless case before?

Cant he be a little more outspoken? Who cares if its a honeypot or a honey trap, cant you at least bite it first? Even if it leads to a disaster, you at least have to enjoy it in the beginning, dont you?

Urggghhhh, frigging idiot!

The more she looked at that guy, the more revolting she felt.

Even if she knew she managed to reach that height in her past life, now that she looked back at her past self, she even started to doubt if this guy could get as high.

If it was like this, wouldnt it be better to reincarnate her as one of Lamonts best friends? At least the camaraderie between brotherhood was stronger than the relationship between boys and girls?

According to calculations, as the same sex, the highest friendship level between the main body and host can only reach up to 87%. Meanwhile, as the opposite sex, the friendship level can reach as high as 1000%.

Theres one extra zero.

Answer, the values indeed correct.

Whats up? Seeing that Shaelyn had stopped eating, Lamont asked in concern, Are the noodles not to your taste?

Shaelyn returned to her senses and tilted her head as she eyed at Lamont, then she shook her head, Im just thinking about the matter from yesterday, have you already decided yet?

Ah Lamont didnt expect her to get straight to the point. He paused for a moment before he nodded hesitantly, Sure we can start as friends, and

Then lets move after we eat?

That fast?

Because I really want to stay together with you, even as friends.

Oh

Lamont gradually stopped thinking.

He wasnt able to cope with such a straightforward approach due to his inexperience with women.

Shaelyn, on the other hand, was still smiling warmly.

She would really lose all her face if she couldnt even hold sway over her past self.

It wasnt a tall task to move since Lamont didnt have much luggage to begin with. Other than his computer and books, he only had a pitiful selection of clothes. He was never big on clothes, so long as they could be worn, that was all that mattered.

In fact, Shaelyn was also the same in this regard More precisely, she didnt care about the boys attire, but as she was kind of a closet pervert, she had done a little research on what kind of clothes would look good on girls.³

Though, she was a bit conflicted to apply the knowledge on herself.

It was worth mentioning that, as the daughter of a big conglomerate, it was impossible for Shaelyn to live in a shabby apartment. Though she said it was co-renting, her family had brought a suite for her in the high-class district next to the campus. In other words, this was where shes currently staying.

Thats why Lamont was a little speechless when she brought him here, This is where were staying?

Goodness gracious just how much is the rent here?

This is the room my father bought for me, no rental fees required, Shaelyn pulled him into the room without giving him the chance to say anything, then she closed the door, But it feels so lonely to live here by myself, thats why I want you to come over

Lamont stopped his feet and suddenly said, Then I cant live here! What if other people start gossiping about you? I bet your father wont be happy with this either

With her back facing him, Shaelyn heaved a sigh.

He really is an idiot.

Always so unnecessarily persistent and making himself appear as a good guy. Even though Ive laid my feelings bare and he knows how I feel, he still tried to remain upright and make the dumbest choices.

*Its not like theres only one way to become a good guy, you doofus.

Trying to restrain herself from roasting him, Shaelyn turned around and directly pulled Lamont into her embrace, I wont let go until you promise to stay.

Ill let go once you promise.

Feeling the softness pressing against him, Lamont momentarily blanked out, No Shaelyn this is bad

I dont care, Shaelyn hugged him tighter, I wont let go until you agree. You can either carry me back like this or we can stay like this until we die of hunger.

The ultimate coaxing technique, lets see if you can continue to reject me with this.

As the proverb said; only you can understand yourself. She was perfectly aware of what kind of girlfriend she wanted in her past life, so it was completely possible for her to become Lamonts dream girlfriend. If even after she went this far and he didnt fall for this trick, she would have to start doubting whether this guy was really herself.

As she anticipated, Lamont caved in before long, Ah okay Ill stay so please dont be like this

Shaelyn released him at once with a brilliant smile, then took his luggage into the room, Yay! So youll stay? You cannot go back on your words alright?

Looking at the rear view of the sly girl who clearly just got away with what she wanted, Lamont couldnt help but think she was a little cute.

He didnt know what she was scheming, but there was nothing of value on him that she could have wanted.

After all, she was the baby daughter of the Lux Conglomerate

Therefore there might be a slight possibility that she had really fallen for him?

With those thoughts in mind, Lamont unconsciously leaked a smile.

Fine, Ill stay here from now on.

1. Silva: I dont even remember the last time I had a wet dream * smile meaningfully *

   Fire: Uh huh Too much information.

   Silva: You want more information? In the dream, I was holding hands with my crush, in front of my grandmas house, and she pressed her breasts against my arm, man those feels heavenly, even in my dream, and I wet myself after waking up. JUST from holding arms a little intimately.

   Fire: Man, youve told that before, but this is even more unneeded information

2. Fire: Wat

   Silva: want some peanuts?

   Fire: Listen here kids, if a Silva offers you some peanuts, DO NOT accept them. Thats Fires safety reminder, thank you.

   Silva: What, theyre not for you to eat, but to throw at the gallery.

   Fire: Its still suspicious since its from you

3. Silva: Well, that sounds exactly like me. Mhm

   Fire: You pervert

   Silva: What do you mean pervert, crossdressing and playing as female in games are normal nowadays!

   Fire: Playing as female in games, sure, but crossdressing?
