Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

Fujiwara Chika instantly regained consciousness and sat up.

This little girl, Qianhua, is incredibly enthusiastic and very interested in catching crabs. I told her several times before bedtime that I absolutely had to take her along.

Kaguya and Yukino had already awakened, so they were naturally awake by now. When they saw Chika sit up instantly, they both showed speechless expressions.

"Get up." Amamiya Natsuki patted Chika's head. "To protect the safety of the others, let's go outside the cave."

"Hmm..." Fujiwara Chika blinked, finally coming to her senses, and covered her head with her hands. "Have my mushrooms ripened yet?"

Amamiya Natsuki said:

"They're ripe and ready to be picked."

"Alright then..." Fujiwara Chika nodded and got ready, but suddenly noticed Kaguya and Yukino staring at her. She quickly checked herself. "Hey, Kaguya-chan and Yukino-chan are looking at me strangely. Is there something on me?"

“No problem.” Kaguya Shinomiya crossed her arms and said casually, “But… you can wipe your drool first.”

Fujiwara Chika's pretty face flushed slightly, and she quickly raised her hand to wipe her lips, stammering:

"It's normal to drool when you're in a bad sleeping position, right?"

Wiping her mouth clean, Fujiwara Chika changed the subject:

"Natsuki-kun said that mushrooms all have their own original sin attributes. Kaguya-chan, Yukino-chan, what are the original sins of your mushrooms?"

Kaguya: "..."

Xue No: “…”

Which pot does not open which pot.

You asked me several times yesterday, and each time I pretended not to hear and refused to answer your question. Don't you have any self-awareness?

How could anyone possibly utter such a thing as the original sin of lust?

Both Kaguya and Yukino are extremely proud girls, so of course they would never reveal their own shyness and unsatisfied desires.

Kaguya Shinomiya and Yukino exchanged glances, locked eyes for a brief moment, and then looked away in tacit agreement.

The two girls were unaware of each other's mushroom-like properties, and Natsuki Amamiya had never mentioned it; it was a secret and a matter of privacy for both of them.

However... everyone's original sin doesn't change much, it's probably still the same as before, right?

In short, Kaguya and Yukino could vaguely guess each other's mushroom attribute.

However, the two girls had different attitudes.

The young lady has resigned herself to the fact that eight out of ten times, the mushrooms that grow are astringent... It's highly likely that she just likes astringent things by nature.

In contrast, Yukino Yukinoshita has only grown mushrooms a few times and is currently unwilling to accept reality or acknowledge her lewd nature.

"Oh, come on, tell me already!" Fujiwara Chika puffed out her cheeks. "The less you tell me, the more curious I get!"

"There's nothing much to say," Yukino Yukinoshita said softly. "Chika-san, you'll understand once you experience it for yourself."

"They won't even tell us... Why is that?" Fujiwara Chika rested her chin on her right hand, a look of suspicion on her face. Suddenly, her gaze shifted to Amamiya Natsuki. "Natsuki-san, you should know, right?"

Amamiya Natsuki nodded and said:

"Of course I know……"

"stare--"

Kaguya and Yukino turned their heads at the same time, their sharp gazes fixed on them.

If Natsuki Amamiya dares to say anything she shouldn't, her mouth will be sewn shut immediately, and she'll never be able to make a sound again.

Amamiya Natsuki's expression turned serious, and she raised her hands, continuing:

"But that's personal privacy. Even if you kill me, I won't tell."

Fujiwara Chika leaned forward and said:

"Natsuki-kun has suddenly become very suspicious."

thump~

Amamiya Natsuki tapped Chika on the head, turned and walked out of the cave, saying:

"Don't be so curious. Your mushroom is different from Yukino and Kaguya."

"That's so mean! Will hitting someone on the head stunt your growth?"

Fujiwara Chika covered her head with both hands, puffed out her pink cheeks, and followed.

The two walked out of the cave.

The air was cold and damp.

The sky was only dimly lit.

The entire island appeared lifeless and quiet.

While inside the cave, nothing seemed amiss; there were many people, and the firelight made it warm and reassuring. But as soon as one steps outside, the fear of being stranded on a deserted island quickly overwhelms them, threatening to engulf and devour them.

Fujiwara Chika involuntarily tensed up and quickly took two steps forward, trying to grab Amamiya Natsuki's sleeve.

Snapped.

Amamiya Natsuki reached out and directly grasped Chika's soft hand.

"Eh?" Fujiwara Chika's pretty face flushed red, her gaze darting around as she whispered, "Natsuki-kun, don't do this..."

Amamiya Natsuki turned her head and said:

"What don't you want?"

Fujiwara Chika whispered:

"Holding hands feels so strange. Even if you say we're dating... I have no memory of it at all. It feels so weird."

Natsuki Amamiya said in a low voice:

"Do you want to see what your hands have been doing?"

"Eh?"

Fujiwara Chika was startled, looked down in confusion at the two clasped hands, and then widened her eyes in disbelief.

"How, how could this happen?!"

Just now it was just a normal hand-holding, but for some reason, in the short time it took to say a few words, the hand-holding posture suddenly turned into interlocking fingers.

Fujiwara Chika was shocked.

What happened just now?

Why don't I feel anything at all?

Amamiya Natsuki muttered under her breath:

"It's very simple. You may say it's strange, but your body has already made it an instinct."

Fujiwara Chika: “…”

Ahhhhh! What exactly is the relationship between myself and Natsuki in real life? Why do we have this instinctive urge to hold hands?!

After a while.

Natsuki Amamiya, accompanied by Chika, arrived at the place where Yukino had awakened the day before.

“Let’s do it here.” Amamiya Natsuki looked around. “Don’t worry about making too much noise and being heard by everyone in the cave.”

"The sound is too loud?" At this critical moment, Fujiwara Chika involuntarily tensed up, one hand covering her chest and the other covering her skirt. "What is Natsuki-san trying to do?"

"Don't worry, we won't do anything."

As Amamiya Natsuki spoke, she reached into her pocket and pulled out a suspicious item.

"Eh? Eh? Eh?" Fujiwara Chika's eyes widened. "What is that?"

Amamiya Natsuki said:

"Of course, it's something that can feed you."

"Hey, are you full?!"

Fujiwara Chika took a half-step back in alarm, her pretty face turning pale, and quickly shook her head, "No! No, no, no! I don't want to eat weird things!"

Amamiya Natsuki said meaningfully:

"Don't worry, even if you say no, your body will start moving on its own right away."

Snapped.

Natsuki Amamiya snapped her fingers.

The mushroom of original sin above Qianhua's head burst open rapidly, unleashing the accumulated power of original sin.

"Ugh..." Fujiwara Chika's body trembled slightly, and she quickly covered her stomach with both hands, involuntarily saying, "Hungry, hungry, hungry!"

"Eat."

Amamiya Natsuki pointed to what she had just pulled out—yesterday's grilled spider and the half-eaten shark fin—"This food is enough to keep you going through your rampage."

That's right.

The original sin on this Chika did not occur in a low-probability event; it remained the Gluttonous Mushroom.

Neither grilled spider nor shark fin tasted good, but driven by her original sin, Fujiwara Chika completely lost control of her body and began a binge-eating spree.

Natsuki Amamiya stood to the side, waiting leisurely, occasionally patting his back.

ten minutes later.

"No, I can't take it anymore..." Fujiwara Chika clutched her stomach with both hands, finally stopping, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked up at the sky, "My stomach is so bloated, I feel like it's going to burst."

"Actually, it's only about half as much as you usually eat," Natsuki Amamiya said, patting Chika's head. "You have to trust your stomach's capacity."

"The president is so mean." Fujiwara Chika looked at him with teary eyes, having regained her memories. "Knowing that I'm a gluttonous mushroom, she still gave me such disgusting food to eat."

Amamiya Natsuki said without changing her expression:

"The food reserves in your backpack are limited. Once you finish them all, there won't be any left."

have a break.

Fujiwara Chika quickly regained her mobility, since Amamiya Natsuki had been watching over her the whole time and certainly wouldn't let Chika overeat.
