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

Kaguya Shinomiya's eyes brightened slightly, and the gloom in them finally disappeared.

So, does that mean I didn't personally push the president into the arms of a bad woman?

Ms. Mitsui crossed her arms and nodded gently, saying:

"It seems that there aren't many restrictions on side quests, and there are many ways to complete them."

"Even so, Natsuki-kun is still amazing." The green tea girl clasped her hands to her chest, her eyes filled with admiration. "If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be able to come up with that many sin coins, right?"

"We can even wear blindfolds!" Fujiwara Chika said excitedly, hands on her hips. "Then there's no need to play rock-paper-scissors anymore. I'll help the president speed things up!"

After speaking, Fujiwara Chika suddenly noticed the young lady in the corner and changed her words:

"...How about Kaguya-chan helps first?"

Kaguya Shinomiya shook her head and said:

"I reject."

How shameless of you to agree to help so hastily!

You need to ask several times before agreeing; you can't just agree right away.

"Alright then," Fujiwara Chika said casually. "If Kaguya-chan doesn't want to, that's fine too. Anyway, the student council president is wearing an eyepatch the whole time, so we can help out."

Shinomiya Kaguya: "..."

I didn't say I wouldn't help, so please don't exclude me!

Having found a shortcut to the side quest, there's no need to say more; just go for it and complete the side quest in one go.

"President, let's go." Fujiwara Chika said excitedly, raising her chin, "Let's go to the dormitory next door."

"Ah."

Amamiya Natsuki agreed and followed Chika to the dormitory next door.

"Is this the steam eye mask that Yukino-chan was talking about?" Fujiwara Chika picked up the eye mask from the table and handed it to Amamiya Natsuki. "President, put it on quickly."

"I reject."

Natsuki Amamiya raised an eyebrow slightly, then casually tossed the eye mask aside.

"Eh?"

“Wearing an eye mask is extremely uncomfortable,” Natsuki Amamiya said to Chika, “so I choose not to wear anything at all.”

Fujiwara Chika's pretty face quickly flushed red. She raised her arms to cover her body and took a step back, saying:

"President, what do you want to do?"

Snapped.

Amamiya Natsuki reached out and pressed against the wall behind Chika, pinning her against the wall and looking down at her, he said:

"Of course I'm bullying you."

Fujiwara Chika blushed and couldn't help but scold him playfully:

"Everyone's next door, they'll hear us!"

“I know,” Natsuki Amamiya said in a low voice. “So, Chika doesn’t want everyone to hear either, right?”

Fujiwara Chika: “…”

The president has really gone too far!

Twenty minutes later.

The side quest progress has increased by one again.

Natsuki Amamiya and Chika returned to the dormitory next door, and then another girl took over to provide special companionship services.

Needless to say, what happened next was that if it were Hayasaka, the blindfold would naturally be thrown aside, but when it was Mitsui-san or the random girl, Amamiya Natsuki would obediently wear the blindfold the whole time. In short, they were treated differently.

After an hour of this busy work, having spent over a thousand Sin Coins, Natsuki Amamiya finally received a notification popped up by the [Game]:

[You experienced a special companion service alone and completed the side quest 'Enjoying the pleasures here, I don't want to leave']

[The mission rewards will be distributed after the dungeon is cleared]

"Finally finished." Amamiya Natsuki sat down at the table and gulped down water. "Let's take a break."

Sometimes I wear an eye mask, and sometimes I can't do anything else except drink water to cool down.

Kaguya Shinomiya's pretty face tightened, and she suddenly said:

"President, why don't you rest in the dormitory next door tonight?"

"Huh?" Amamiya Natsuki was taken aback. "They actually want me to sleep next door?"

“That’s right, we don’t need the student council president anymore,” Hayasaka Ai added from the side. “President, please don’t bother us tonight.”

“It’s Mika-chan,” Fujiwara Chika explained. “Mika-chan already said that there’s a really scary evil spirit in the dorm. It was bullying her last night, so we definitely can’t let her go back to live there. Naturally, she’ll stay with us… The dorm beds are so small, there’s no way the three of us can fit. Luckily, the dorm next door is empty, so the student council president can go rest there.”

"No," Natsuki Amamiya tried to argue, "What about keeping watch tonight?"

Yukino Yukinoshita said in a clear, cold voice:

"We've already discussed it, and we'll take turns keeping watch tonight."

Amamiya Natsuki still wouldn't give up:

"It must be dangerous for me to sleep alone next door, right?"

"It's alright," Hayasaka Ai smiled. "If the president is attacked by an evil spirit at night, just shout for help. We'll hear the sound and come to her rescue."

"..."

With no other option, Natsuki Amamiya could only return to the dormitory next door alone, leaving the room empty and desolate.

After a quick wash, Natsuki Amamiya casually chose a bed and lay down.

Unfortunately, I can't bring my phone into the game, so I tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Natsuki Amamiya suddenly remembered the [Dream Link] skill that she had pasted onto the random girl earlier.

"Why don't we try it out and see what the effect is?"

Just try it.

Natsuki Amamiya closed her eyes and silently activated the [Dream Link]. Instantly, she felt as if her consciousness had detached from her body and floated into the air. The whole world became bizarre and surreal, leaving only an interplay of light and darkness.

Between the light and darkness, transparent bubbles floated, with hazy things flowing inside. If you looked closely, you couldn't see them clearly. They were obviously the dreams of the girls next door after they fell asleep.

A sudden realization dawned on Natsuki Amamiya's mind:

"These bubbles must be other people's dreams..."

It now appears that the Dream Link skill has many limitations. First, the target must be asleep; otherwise, if the target is not dreaming, Dream Link is naturally out of the question.

"It feels a bit like a double-edged sword..."

Natsuki Amamiya silently gave her assessment in her mind.

Evil spirits are not living beings, just like Kaguya-sama, who doesn't need to sleep. So the Dream Link skill is naturally ineffective against evil spirits. What's the use of using it on ordinary people?

Amamiya Natsuki's mind stirred, and her consciousness curiously arrived in front of a dream bubble, where a sudden realization dawned on her.

"Dream linking has two modes: a waking mode and an immersive mode..."

“As the name suggests.”

"The lucid mode is what is known as lucid dreaming, while the immersive mode is like a normal dream, where you are also immersed in it."

"Not only that, but you can also set a mode for the invading dream owner. If a lucid mode is set, the other party will also enter a lucid dream state over time."

"In addition, the linked dream can be more than one. As long as the other party is dreaming and they are not far apart in reality, it is even possible to link the dreams of multiple people together."

Natsuki Amamiya was not clear about the difference between the two dream modes, so to be on the safe side, she naturally chose the lucid invasion mode.

Since it was an experiential skill, Natsuki Amamiya didn't have a specific target. She simply linked everyone's dreams together, then randomly selected the nearest dream bubble and crashed into it.

next second.

As light and darkness shifted before her eyes, Natsuki Amamiya found herself in a room.

"Starting with a bed..."

Amamiya Natsuki looked around and found herself lying in bed, with a ceiling above her that was both unfamiliar and vaguely familiar.

Crash.

The sound of flowing water came from the side.

Amamiya Natsuki turned her head and looked over, only to find a semi-transparent frosted glass bathroom. Someone was taking a shower inside, and the figure inside seemed strangely familiar, but unfortunately, because the glass was blurry, she couldn't make out who it was for the time being.

“This is the hotel layout…” Amamiya Natsuki instantly recognized her surroundings and couldn’t help but wonder, “Who’s taking a shower in the bathroom?”

Entering someone else's dream for the first time, Amamiya Natsuki felt quite novel and was not in a hurry, so she waited in bed.

After a while.

Click.

The bathroom door was pushed open.

A fair-skinned girl with long, straight black hair stepped out.

"Yukino?"

Natsuki Amamiya instantly recognized the girl in the bathroom.

Clearly, the dream he entered belonged to Yukino Yukinoshita.

"Natsuki... what's wrong?"

Yukino Yukinoshita tilted her head and looked over, but her eyes clearly lacked the liveliness of her real-life eyes, making her look noticeably dazed and cute.

Amamiya Natsuki inquired:

"Where are we?"

“I…” Yukino Yukinoshita blinked, a confused expression on her pretty face, “I don’t know.”

"He really is dull."

Amamiya Natsuki thought for a moment and realized that she was in a lucid dream mode, while Yukino was in a normal immersive dream mode.
