## Chapter Chronology

**"I mean, look at that weird afro"** (だって変なアフロだし, *Datte Hen'na Afurodashi*) is the eighty-sixth chapter of the *My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999*, written and illustrated by Mashiro.

## Summary

Though she is the Paladin and is supposed to be in charge of healing and tanking every attack, Akane is being reprimanded by her teammates for continuing to die. Masamune scolded Akane when Luka intervened to defend her, saying that everyone has the right to play the game however they see fit and that holding one person responsible for the team's defeat is unfair. The other party members call it a day to make the argument over.

Akane went to Luka shortly after to thank him for opposing her earlier in the game when they were fighting. Luka claimed he felt terrible for Akane because she consistently receives criticism from her teammates whenever they see each other. Before he decided to leave Akane and go to the blacksmith, Luka tried to comfort her a little, as she was a burden on every random team she was paired with in every battle.

As soon as Akane finished speaking with Luka, she said, "So cool," prompting Runa to tell Akane is cheating despite Yamada's apparent lack of interest. Runa mentioned that she is aware of Luka and that he is one of Eita's online friends and one of the more well-known male character players in the game Forest of Savior. He is on par in terms of power with Yamada, who didn't seem to be well-liked by female players due to his Afro-like in-game character. Yamada's ranking dropped among top Wizard players and players across the globe due to his recent lack of effort in leveling.

Yamada was fast asleep next to Akane and had informed her that he had to practice with Tani by 11 as soon as he woke up. As he was leaving, he was told by Akane that she loved his Afro and thought it was the coolest of all, which made Yamada chuckle.

Akane and Luka are currently engaged in chat in the lobby. She was bragging about her boyfriend and how awesome he was, which left Luka perplexed as to why she was talking about her boyfriend to him. When he asked if they were registered as FOS partners, Akane responded that Yamada had never brought up the subject with her. This caused Luka to react when she mentioned Yamada's name and wonder if she was referring to the top-ranked wizard Yamada to which Akane said yes. Luka questioned whether or not it bothered her that her boyfriend, Yamada, was paired with another girl, Princess Ruri, given that they had been listed as a pair for a considerable amount of time.

She stated that she is good friends with Ruri-chan since Luka doesn't know Ruri-chan's true identity, and Eita has instructed Akane not to reveal it to anyone. While Akane was considering whether or not the other Chocolate Rabbit Guild members already had FOS partners, Luka asked her to be partnered with him instead.
