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

"Hey hey hey?" Zhu Zhu couldn't help but shout, "You idiot Natsuki, what are you doing!"

Natsuki Amamiya remained silent, her expression innocent, and continued undressing.

The senior student guessed:

"Your junior didn't perform a backflip just now, so he was affected?"

"No, that's not true." Kaguya Shinomiya pouted and couldn't help but retort, "The theater hasn't even opened yet, okay?"

"I'm sorry, I forgot."

Amamiya Natsuki then stopped and sincerely apologized.

"So it was all a lie." Fujiwara Chika puffed out her cheeks. "The student council president is going too far."

"I'm just giving you a heads-up," Natsuki Amamiya said without changing her expression. "After breaking the rules, no one knows what their body might do on its own, so we need to be vigilant."

Reminder complete.

The jack-o'-lantern in Amamiya Natsuki's hand suddenly flickered, and a purple flame burst forth, instantly engulfing the entire underground cavern.

"The theater is now open," Natsuki Amamiya said softly. "From now on, the rules are officially in effect."

Before he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps suddenly filled the air.

The girls became alert and looked into the darkness, where they saw a sickly young lady in a black dress, holding a machete, emerge from the shadows.

"Huh?" Yukinoshita Haruno's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but look at Yukino beside her, whispering, "Yukino, what's going on?"

"She is……"

Just as Yukino Yukinoshita was about to speak, her pretty face suddenly changed, and she felt an inexplicable force seal her mouth.

Oops.

My sister just called my name, which is already a violation of the rules.

Yukino Yukinoshita tried to speak, but to no avail. Then, her body moved uncontrollably, and she stretched out her arms and hugged Natsuki Amamiya's neck under everyone's gaze.

"Hey, what are you doing, Yukino-chan?"

"He actually wants to kiss the president?"

"Yukino-chan is so bold!"

Yukino quickly apologized:

"I'm sorry, I accidentally called Yukino's name just now."

"I see." Fujiwara Chika suddenly realized, then couldn't help but complain, "The president is too much! The rule she set is that girls have to throw themselves at her!"

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Amamiya Natsuki denied it outright, "It was Hirano-san's body that was moving, it has nothing to do with me."

"……hateful!"

Yukino Yukinoshita gritted her teeth, her pretty face flushed red, both ashamed and angry.

Even the usually composed second young lady couldn't remain calm when she threw herself into everyone's arms.

Especially when she realized that she was not only hugging Amamiya Natsuki's neck, but also standing on tiptoe as if she wanted to kiss her, her heart jumped into her throat.

Stop! Stop!

Kissing someone in front of everyone is just too embarrassing!

Fortunately, Natsuki Amamiya was still able to move freely. While supporting Hirano's chin with her hand, she turned to look at the yandere young lady who was tilting her head and looked over, and coughed lightly:

“We are doing something very serious.”

The yandere young lady didn't say anything, but silently raised the wood-chopping knife in her hand.

Fortunately, the punishment time finally ended. Yukino Yukinoshita decisively took two steps back to create distance, covering her body in embarrassment and anger.

The yandere Kaguya silently put away her wood-chopping knife, completely ignoring the others, and fixed her gaze on Amamiya Natsuki, saying in an icy voice:

"Why did it take you so long to see me, President?"

For a yandere young lady, the only people she cares about are her true form Kaguya, Natsuki Amamiya, and the ghost lady; she doesn't care about anyone else.

"you listen to me……"

Natsuki Amamiya lowered her voice and explained the events of the dungeon to the yandere young lady.

"I see." The coldness on the yandere young lady's face melted a little, and she tilted her head and said, "I can help, but after we clear the game, the guild master has to promise me one thing."

“We don’t need your help.” Kaguya Shinomiya stepped forward, blocking Natsuki Amamiya’s path. “We can clear the dungeon even without you.”

The yandere young lady tilted her head, a dangerous red light flashing in her wine-red eyes, and said coldly:

"If you had that ability, you wouldn't keep restarting time."

Kaguya Shinomiya gritted her teeth, refusing to back down, and said:

"It's as if you have a solution."

"Of course I have a way," the yandere young lady said indifferently. "As long as we kill that woman before she restarts time, we can manage."

"you……"

Kaguya Shinomiya wanted to refute, but suddenly remembered the demon bride from the previous instance.

Despite being the dungeon boss, she was ultimately defeated by the yandere Kaguya. If she were a yandere rich girl, she might actually be able to handle Hiruko-gami—

According to Yuko the Human-Faced Dog, urban legends may seem powerful, but they all have their own limits.

For example, Sadako can absorb the fear of other creatures to strengthen herself, but she has her limits and cannot transform into a Cthulhu-esque character.

But the yandere young lady is different.

In the previous instance, it seems that some kind of unrepeatable coincidence occurred, allowing the yandere young lady to break through her limits and gain unlimited potential for growth.

Watching the two Kaguyas arguing, Amamiya Natsuki cleared her throat, about to speak, when she suddenly felt her sleeve being gently tugged.

"Mahjong..."

Sadako, dressed in a white dress and with her face obscured by thick black hair, appeared behind Natsuki Amamiya at some point, her expectant voice emanating from beneath her dark hair.

Hopeless.

The first thing they did upon meeting was play mahjong; this Sadako has completely become a mahjong addict.

Amamiya Natsuki whispered:

"I have important business to attend to today, so I'm not playing mahjong."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Miss Sadako did not speak, but lowered her head, feeling a surge of disappointment, and retreated into the darkness.

"Wait a minute." Natsuki Amamiya grabbed Sadako's wrist. "I'll need you later. As an employee, it's time to generate results."

Miss Sadako was clearly not interested in the performance results; she strained her grip, trying to break free and return to the television screen.

"Let's get down to business first." Amamiya Natsuki offered her payment: "I'll play mahjong with you all day."

Miss Sadako's black hair trembled immediately: "...Deal."

"Eh eh eh?!"

This was the first time Yukinoshita Haruno had seen Sadako, and she was immediately startled, nervously looking at her younger sister: "Yukino..."

Before she could finish speaking, a hand reached out and covered her mouth.

Yukino Yukinoshita bit her lip and whispered:

"Sister, from now on, please don't call my name anymore!"

Yukinoshita blinked pitifully, indicating that she understood.

After Yukino withdrew her hand, Haruno muttered under her breath:

"My sister is so rough."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."

"It's been a long time since I've been out." A human-faced dog shook its head and came to Shayou's side, asking curiously, "Shayou, where is this place?"

"here it is……"

Just as Shayou was about to speak, she suddenly felt that she couldn't make a sound. Then, her hands involuntarily grabbed the hem of her skirt, her pretty face flushed, and she lifted it up to reveal a pink teddy bear underneath.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Yuko the human-faced dog felt insulted. "I'm a girl, I'm not interested in your panties!"

"..."

The yandere young lady, the human-faced dog Yuko, and Sadako-san—aside from the little match girl, all three combatants are present.

Natsuki Amamiya briefly explained the contents of the dungeon, and then said:

"It's time for the final showdown... Yuko, do you know how many shadows are in the cave?"

“Many, a huge number.” The human-faced dog tilted its head, its ears twitching, and was in charge of the reconnaissance mission. “I can hear hundreds of voices.”

“That is indeed a lot.” Kaguya Shinomiya frowned slightly. “Apart from those shadows that are responsible for guarding the crossroads, the other shadows should all be gathered around Hiruko-gami.”

To confront the Four Hands and Hiruko-gami directly, the shadows on the periphery must be dealt with.

However, one-on-one fights are manageable, but once the shadows gang up on him, Amamiya Natsuki can only turn and run away, unable to withstand the onslaught.

Fujiwara Chika whispered:

"How about we use a fishing tactic to lure those shadows out one by one?"

Natsuki Amamiya looked over silently and said softly:

You mean video games, right?

Reality isn't a game; shadows aren't as easily fooled as monsters. Even if they can fool one or two, they definitely can't fool a third.

Kitagawa Kaimu suggested:

"Shall we sneak in quietly and strike at the heart of the enemy's lair?"

Kaguya Shinomiya shook her head and said:

"Shadow abilities offer no concealment against shadows; it's too dangerous."

After discussing for a while, the girls couldn't come up with a good solution. The shadows had the intelligence of normal humans, and with Hiruko-gami in charge of overall coordination, it was impossible to divide and conquer them.
