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

Fujiwara Chika blinked and asked with concern, "Kaguya-chan, why are you so red? Do you have a fever?"

We're discussing rewards, so let's not worry about other people blushing!

"No fever."

"But your face..."

"I choked just now." Kaguya Shinomiya gritted her teeth and quickly changed the subject. "I didn't expect to get MVP either."

“Indeed.” Kitagawa Kaimu nodded. “Natsuki used to win the MVP award.”

Amamiya Natsuki pondered:

"Kaguya's restaurant brought the stagnant hospital back to life, so it's normal for her to win MVP."

Kaguya Shinomiya pursed her pink lips and said softly, "Actually, it was all thanks to everyone's help."

If she were alone, even if she could complete the game, she definitely wouldn't get the current rating.

Fujiwara Chika asked curiously:

"Kaguya-chan, what are the MVP rewards? Are there any skills?"

"I didn't get any skills, but I did get a really good item."

Kaguya Shinomiya shook her head and showed the rewards for the dungeon MVP.

[Special Item: Leg Pendant]

[Equipment Slot: Legs]

【Effect: Activating this item will transform you into a leg accessory. You can deactivate the accessory at any time.】

During this period, your abilities will be shared with the accessory wearer. Your health and senses will be shared, and you will be treated as a single unit. Please note that exclusive skills cannot be shared.

This thing looks a bit like a keychain, about the size of a palm, shaped like a pink cat, and is made of neither gold nor jade. Its effect can only be described as quite unique.

"There are actually such props?" Zhu Zhu's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but complain, "It's clearly a 'lie-down' artifact, okay?"

"It's not that exaggerated." Senior Yanzi shook her head. "Even if you want to just relax, you have to complete the dungeon quests first."

Kitagawa Kaimu, with her right hand on her hip and her left hand supporting her chin, suddenly said:

"Same action unit... If someone transforms into a leg accessory, can we enter the dungeon together and no longer have to separate?"

“It seems quite possible.” Fujiwara Chika’s voice was clear and crisp. “We’ll know once we verify it. Come on, let’s try transforming into a leg accessory.”

"Wait a minute." Zhu Zhu quickly called out to stop, glancing at Amamiya Natsuki as she spoke, "When you transform into a keychain, your clothes might fall off again."

"Oh, I almost forgot." Fujiwara Chika slapped her forehead. "Natsuki-kun, you'd better get out of here."

Amamiya Natsuki looked over silently and said:

"Instead of making me leave, you can just go to the restroom, right?"

"...makes sense."

Chika, with her boundless curiosity, took the leg charm that Kaguya handed her and turned to walk into the restroom.

After a while.

pat.

A sound of something falling to the ground rang out.

"Chika-chan, are you alright?"

Kitagawa Kaimu called from outside the door.

"..."

No one responded from the restroom.

Natsuki Amamiya pushed open the door. Chika was no longer in the bathroom; only a few pieces of clothing lay on the floor, the top one being a black and white panda...

Kaguya Shinomiya's pretty face hardened, and she quickly said:

"President, please leave."

You didn't even go inside, so where are you going to leave?!

Natsuki Amamiya silently turned around and walked to the window to look at the scenery.

"Zhu Zhu guessed right. When it becomes a pendant, it really can't transform with the clothes on."

"Hey, hey, hey, a notification has appeared, saying that a special item has been found and asking if you want to equip it?"

"Let's try out the equipment."

"I saw Chika-chan's skill... It can definitely be used."

"..."

Several girls were talking excitedly in the restroom, while Natsuki Amamiya silently admired the scenery.

After a while.

Fujiwara Chika emerged from her leg-attachment state and, while getting dressed inside, recounted her experience of becoming a leg-attachment through the door.

"After becoming a pendant, I can't move my body or speak, but at least I can see things... It was okay at first, but it got more and more boring later on."

In short, this item is not a consumable and can be used indefinitely. However, only one person can fuse with it at any given time to turn it into a leg accessory.

"It's a pity it's not a skill." Kitagawa Kaimu said with some regret. "If it were a skill, everyone could become leg accessories and hang on Natsuki, so we wouldn't have to separate after entering the dungeon."

Zhu Zhu complained:

"If everyone becomes a decorative piece, wouldn't that be too unbalanced?"

The senior student coughed twice and said, "We're opening a shady restaurant in the dungeon, and it feels like we're already breaking the balance."

Zhu Zhu: "..."

Settlement complete.

Everyone opened another round of daily surprise blind boxes, but unfortunately, everyone failed and no one got anything good.

"That's about it." Kitagawa Kaimu stretched. "Let's all go out and have some fun."

Check-out time is 12 o'clock, and it feels like a waste to leave now, so everyone unanimously decided to stay until noon before going back.

As Amamiya Natsuki stepped out of her room, she immediately saw her maid, Hayasaka, standing quietly in the hallway.

After exchanging a glance, Hayasaka Ai winked quietly, then left with Shinomiya Kaguya.

After a while.

Hayasaka Ai sent a message: "Calling for senpai."

Natsuki Amamiya: "Speak."

Hayasaka Ai: "Senpai, come to the hotel entrance and come with me."

"What to do?"

"Do things that make your seniors happy."

They say they're making people happy, but they clearly just make people angry.

Amamiya Natsuki put away her phone, left the room, and quickly arrived at the hotel entrance.

"Senior, here, here."

From the corner outside the door, Hayasaka, a blonde woman with a side ponytail, waved to him.

Amamiya Natsuki stepped over and asked curiously:

Where is your maid outfit?

"It's not appropriate to wear a maid outfit when you're going out to meet someone." Hayasaka Ai said, handing over an umbrella. "Here, senpai, hold this umbrella."

It's still raining.

In Tokyo during the rainy season, it rains almost every day. In the flowerbed in front of the hotel, a patch of pink and white hydrangeas looks especially beautiful in the rain.

Amamiya Natsuki opened her umbrella: "You called me out just to hold this umbrella for you?"

“That’s right.” Hayasaka Ai raised her chin, put her hands behind her back, and said in a sweet voice, “Please remember the wonderful memory of walking in the rain with a beautiful girl under an umbrella for the first time, senpai. Don’t forget it.”

"I'm sorry, I didn't have my first one back in elementary school." Natsuki Amamiya looked over. "Besides, we shared an umbrella that night when I took you to the train station, right?"

Hayasaka Ai recalled their journey together on that rainy night, pursed her pink lips slightly, stretched out her arms, and hugged Amamiya Natsuki's arm. "Senpai, how did everyone's dungeon run go?"

"The reward is quite substantial..."

Natsuki Amamiya explained the main rewards.

"Huh?" Hayasaka Ai turned her head and looked at him. "Your new skill can heal illnesses?"

Amamiya Natsuki said, "That's what they say, but we haven't tested the actual effects yet."

"Senior, I want it."

Without hesitation, Hayasaka Ai grasped Amamiya Natsuki's right hand.

then……

"It can't be pasted." Amamiya Natsuki raised an eyebrow in surprise. "It's even a limited skill."

"What a pity." Hayasaka Ai sighed regretfully. "Then I'll just have to go back and have my senior serve me."

"..."

The two chatted as they walked, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the tram stop next to the hotel.

Amamiya Natsuki thought Hayasaka was about to board the train, but then her junior Hayasaka stopped and said:

"Senior, we've arrived."

"Ok?"

Amamiya Natsuki stopped and looked around, but didn't see anyone she knew.

"The agreed meeting place is inside a coffee shop."

Hayasaka Ai pointed to the coffee shop not far away and took Amamiya Natsuki's hand as they walked over.

It was a little after eight in the morning, and the coffee shop had just opened for business. There were hardly any customers, so as soon as she entered the shop, Natsuki Amamiya recognized who the person Hayasaka Ai had asked for was.
