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

Just as I was about to give up my right to be human, I suddenly felt something terrifying watching me from the shadows—the legendary dimensional reduction attack.

The Crimson King has returned!

Memory erased!

Reason told Natsuki Amamiya that she had to stop; the attack from a lower dimension was far more terrifying than the original game, and she couldn't let herself be swayed by beauty.

Women will only slow down your progress.

Unfortunately, the body ultimately has its own ideas.

So, the next second.

The ice sculpture young lady was completely stunned, her head buzzing, and she instantly forgot where she was.

(Seriously...)

(I can't understand it, I absolutely can't understand it!)

(My head is spinning, my heart is racing, I feel so strange, I can't breathe...)

With her brain overloaded and steam billowing from the top of her head, Kaguya Shinomiya felt extremely dizzy and unable to think.

I used to occasionally see other people kissing and I always felt it was very unhygienic, and I thought I would never do that kind of thing with anyone.

Now that it's my turn, I realize I can't possibly dislike it.

Not only physically, but also psychologically, the strange shock made people dizzy.

The silly young lady clung tightly to Amamiya Natsuki's clothes, feeling like a small boat on the vast ocean, sailing through the white sea fog, unable to discern direction, only able to drift with the current towards the distance.

After a while.

With immense willpower, Natsuki Amamiya finally pushed Kaguya away.

"..."

The room was quite quiet; no one spoke, only the two people's slightly rapid breathing could be heard.

The ice sculpture young lady's eyes had turned into two pools of spring water, swirling around inside. She could barely stand, and steam billowed from the top of her head.

"Let's get down to business first."

Amamiya Natsuki took a deep breath, suppressing her inner impulse, and helped Kaguya steady. "I'll go find Haimeng. You go find Mrs. Nakagawa first and stop her from going to the hot spring. Wait for me to get there."

Kaguya Shinomiya pressed her right hand to her chest, listening to her heart pounding faster than ever before, taking deep breaths to calm herself. Her gaze darted around, avoiding eye contact.

"Give it to me."

(Calm down, calm down, calm down.)

(Stay rational.)

(Clearing the game is the priority; don't get caught up in that kind of thing!!)

The two left the sauna and quickly got to work.

Based on the information obtained through torture, Kaguya Shinomiya went ahead to intercept Mrs. Tear Mole.

Natsuki Amamiya went to find Umimu.

"Open the door, fix the sewer."

"Hey, Natsuki-kun?"

"It's me."

"You've come to the hotel to soak in the hot springs too... Hey, what are you doing barging in here?"

"Open your mouth and bite the towel."

"..."

The third time she was tied up, Natsuki Amamiya's movements became increasingly skilled.

A towel was stuffed into her mouth, she was blindfolded, and the most popular rope-catching technique was used, along with a marker pen... Under intense mental stimulation, the succubus girl successfully returned.

"Bah, bah, bah~"

Kitagawa Kaimu spat out the towel from her mouth. "This is the third time. Why do you always use a towel?"

“Indeed, four times is too many, three times is too few, it gets boring after that.” Amamiya Natsuki said while helping to untie the ropes, “I remember there was another prop ball, the size was just right…”

Upon hearing this, Kitagawa Kaimu's eyes widened, and she tilted her head, headbutting Amamiya Natsuki in the chest.

"You idiot Natsuki, you actually want me to bite that kind of thing! That's so unfair!"

You said you didn't want to bite the towel.

"I don't want to bite that kind of thing either!"

"..."

The succubus girl has successfully returned.

The two walked out of the room and soon encountered Kaguya Shinomiya and Ms. Nakagawa.

The interception operation was successfully completed.

"Huh?" Kitagawa Kaimu was taken aback. "Kaguya-san has already rejoined the team?"

Amamiya Natsuki nodded.

"Wait a minute." Kitagawa Kaimu realized, "Why is it Kaguya-san who went first this time?"

Amamiya Natsuki said seriously:

"Bundled games only slow down my progress."

Kitagawa Uimeng: "..."

Above the corridor.

"Good evening, Ms. Nakagawa," Natsuki Amamiya said with a smile. "We meet again."

"Eh?"

Ms. Nakagawa, who had a beauty mark near the corner of her eye, looked puzzled: "Excuse me, may I ask who you are...?"

"Just call me Natsuki." Amamiya Natsuki smiled and extended her hand. "Ms. Nakagawa's cooking is delicious and unforgettable."

During the previous interrogation, we learned about Ms. Nakagawa's job: a chef at a restaurant.

"Hello, Natsuki-kun."

Ms. Nakagawa extended her right hand and shook hands politely.

Although I don't remember who Amamiya Natsuki is, I still know the basic etiquette.

Beside Ms. Nakagawa was a short-haired girl, the girl she met at the hot spring last night, who is the daughter of Nakagawa Misaki.

In addition, there was a bespectacled boy who looked like a high school student next to him, whose lenses gleamed white, and whose face subtly revealed hostility.

Amamiya Natsuki shifted her gaze slightly, landing on the boy with glasses.

A notification appeared quietly.

After tireless efforts, you finally found the mastermind: an older, younger guy.

My childhood sweetheart next door confessed her feelings to me, but I'm actually attracted to the lady next door... Is it wrong to like older women?

He mustered the courage to confess his feelings to his wife, only to be cruelly rejected; his life could never be the same again.

So, as long as I don't confess my feelings, my life won't fall apart, right?

[You've decided to show this older kid what a true god of pure love looks like!]

"Tsk~" Amamiya Natsuki curled her lip, "I'm determined to be the God of Pure Love!"

“Ms. Nakagawa, I’m a cooking enthusiast by choice, and I’ve recently learned a lost art form,” Natsuki Amamiya invited. “Could we go to the cafeteria for a chat?”

"I'm sorry," Ms. Nakagawa said, looking troubled. "I still need to go to the hot springs..."

Amamiya Natsuki stepped forward, looking directly into Mrs. Tear Mole's eyes, her gaze intense as she said:

"Ms. Nakagawa is someone I have always admired and sought after. This is my lifelong request. Please grant my wish!"

The direct hit from the handsome young man made Ms. Nakagawa a little flustered. She nervously turned her head away, her face slightly flushed, and said embarrassedly:

"A lifetime of requests..."

"That sounds interesting," the short-haired girl chuckled. "It's just a cooking exchange. Auntie, please agree to it. We'll go to the hot springs later."

"That sounds interesting." Kitagawa Kaimu winked and added her support, "Shall we all go to the cafeteria together?"

Unable to refuse such a kind offer, Ms. Nakagawa could only reluctantly agree:

"...I'll go."

Chapter 276 What exactly is a Minotaur God?!

hostel.

canteen.

Under the dim light, only a handful of diners were seated, among them Fujiwara Chika.

"Eh, Kaguya-chan?"

Fujiwara Chika's eyes lit up, and she happily greeted her, "Are you here to soak in the hot springs too?"

"Ah."

Kaguya Shinomiya nodded slightly.

The secretary is still asleep. In my memory, he is most familiar with Kaguya Shinomiya, after all, they are best friends.

In contrast, Natsuki Amamiya and Umimu were strangers.

"Natsuki, what do we do now?"

Kitagawa Kaimu leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "Should we wake Chika up?"

“Not for now.” Amamiya Natsuki shook her head. “Once the nightmare collapses, Chika will naturally wake up.”

After a pause, Natsuki Amamiya's gaze fell on Ms. Nakagawa, and she continued in a low voice:
