Akane’s feelings for Yamada continue to grow as he proves to be a considerate and reliable friend on- and offline, but she’s starting to overthink everything she does around him. When Akane and the other guild members attend a cultural festival at Yamada’s school, all the students think Akane is Yamada’s girlfriend, which leads to an embarrassing misunderstanding. Confusing matters, Yamada rushes to Akane’s aid when she collapses with a fever. Is he just being as considerate as always, or could this be a sign of something more? Volume 3 includes Chapters 20-30.
