Crossover Anime: The Heroine's Savior in the Other World

Kitahara Sosuke's avatar jumped up and down, and sure enough, he quickly replied to the girl's question.

"Let me ask you a question. Why would a guy repeatedly reject an invitation from a girl he likes?"

Yoko carefully considered her words, avoiding mentioning Sato Kaoru and her name, but it didn't matter anyway, since the other party probably already knew who the male and female protagonists in her question were.

It was just the girl's last shred of pride that was holding her back.

"That's probably because she's fallen for someone else."

Kitahara Sousuke replied without hesitation, smiling as he could almost picture the girl jumping up and down in frustration.

"Hey! No joking around, guys aren't like that!" Sifang Diezi said angrily, and also threw back a meme of beating up a dog's head: "We need to analyze this seriously, we agreed on this beforehand."

"Well, then there are two possibilities: the first is that this guy is very career-oriented and believes that what he is doing now is more important than the girl he likes."

"Hmm, what's the second point?"

Sifang Diezi nodded. That makes sense. Brother is working hard for his and our future, which is indeed very important.

"The second possibility is that the boy is avoiding the girl."

"The girl is so pretty and cute, and she's also sensible and obedient, why do boys avoid her?"

Sifang Diezi asked in confusion.

"Normally, the more you like someone, the more you want to be with her every second. Just looking at her makes you feel like you own the whole world. When you see her smile, the whole world is bright; when you see her cry, even the best weather feels like a rainy day and makes you sad."

"Hmph, I didn't realize you were so good with words."

Sifang Diezi unconsciously curled the corners of her mouth. Was this a compliment? Never mind, she'd just take it as a compliment.

"However, the more wonderful the present is, the harder it is to accept a terrible future. That boy must have seen some bleak future, so he is subconsciously running away from something."

Just as the princess will always be awakened by the prince's kiss, the dwarfs can only watch from afar.

"Running away from what..."

Sifang Diezi had just typed a few words in the chat box when her finger suddenly paused, and then she slowly pressed the delete button to delete all the words.

She reread the message Kitahara Sousuke had just sent her carefully, feeling somewhat depressed. She then pondered silently for a while, during which Kitahara Sousuke simply waited quietly, without sending any new messages.

"Can't you guys think about other things a little less and just quietly enjoy the present moment?"

The girl's somewhat melancholic mood was conveyed through her words. She had chased after her brother all the way to Tokyo, so why couldn't he let go of what happened in Kyoto?

Was the pressure his mother put on his brother so great that he dared not face the authority of the Yomo family in Tokyo, far from Kyoto?

"Girls are okay, but boys aren't."

Kitahara Sousuke's news made Yomo Choko's heart sink again.

"But, as long as the dwarf nods, the princess doesn't have to be a princess."

"Then he must have the courage and perseverance to bear the wrath of the entire kingdom."

Can the prince bear the pressure from the entire Sifang family?

Speaking of which, ever since he transferred to Tokyo without permission, after the initial joy, he did feel an invisible, greater pressure on him.

"...Then, if the princess who is trapped is Kaede-kun, would Kitahara-kun be willing to take the princess away and bear the wrath?"

Sifang Diezi asked tentatively.

"Me? I won't run away."

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, I'm not a dwarf. I'll do everything in my power to snatch the princess away in front of everyone, including the king. I can't bear to let her suffer with me."

Kitahara Sosuke looked up at the girl sitting opposite him, quietly tidying up her lunchbox.

At that moment, Feng looked up and their eyes met. His reflection was mirrored in her sky-blue pupils, and then the girl gave a puzzled look.

"It's nothing, Feng looks really beautiful today."

"Tch, what a smooth talker..."

"Tch, a smooth talker like him, he might get shot to death outside the city gate by a hail of arrows."

Yoko curled her lip, disdainfully mocking the other person. She thought this guy had some better idea, but it turns out he was just having a fit of chuunibyou.

"Even if you die, die on the charge. Stealing the princess like a thief will never earn the king's trust."

Kitahara Sosuke smiled and continued typing: "At least we need to tell everyone that the hero is not a dwarf, and that he has the courage to give everything for the princess."

"Courage..."

"Those who don't even dare to step into the gates of the Sifang family should not have any unrealistic ideas."

Yoko muttered to herself, suddenly remembering the disdainful look on her mother's face when she talked about Sato Kaoru and the words she had uttered.

Maybe Mother wasn't looking down on Brother's cowardice, but was telling us how to gain his approval?

Unfortunately, she chose to follow in her brother's footsteps and run away together.

Chapter 104 Are you free?

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Do you... do you have time this weekend?"

Sifang Diezi twirled a lock of her hair with her slender fingers. No matter what the reason was for the prince's refusal of the beautiful girl's invitation, it was still unforgivable.

Since that's the case, he needs to be punished properly so he realizes that I also have plenty of guys chasing after me. If he knows he could lose me if he's not careful, then maybe he'll start to focus more on me than his studies, right?

"What?"

"I have a social gathering that's hard to turn down, and my brother isn't coming with me. There will definitely be some annoying guys bothering me, so I need a shield. Kitahara is lucky to have caught my eye."

Sifang Diezi was very confident. Because of her excellent family background and beautiful appearance, she had received all kinds of invitations since she was a child. Apart from the prince, no man of the opposite sex could refuse her.

Besides, this guy had so much fun in the bathroom last time, he deserves some compensation, right? Mere emotional counseling isn't enough...

"Oh, is that so? I'm not going!"

"???"

Sifang Diezi sent a string of question marks, persistently asking, "You also have tutoring classes on weekends?"

"There are no tutoring classes, but I just made plans with Feng and Ling to go to the mall with them on Saturday. It's a pity you made the appointment too late."

As he spoke, Kitahara Sosuke sent a smug emoji, a hand-on-hips-and-laughing emoji that Yomo Choko found extremely irritating.

"Kitahara Sousuke, you actually need to make an appointment?" Yomo Choko gritted her teeth. Even this guy gets invited out on weekends, and she herself took the initiative to invite her brother, and he hasn't even refused.

Suddenly feeling somewhat disheartened, Sifang Diezi replied indifferently, "Okay, then forget it," and ended the chat.

I can go by myself, I don't need any weird boys!

Who have you been chatting with?

Hoshizuki Kaede had already tidied up the table. After all, Kitahara Sousuke had eaten the leftovers very cleanly. If that guy had just licked them a little harder, he might have even saved the trouble of washing the lunchbox.

"Sniff, I smell infidelity."

Rin, holding the calico cat carrier in her arms, leaned over and sniffed Kitahara Sousuke incessantly.

"It wasn't an affair, it was with my classmates."

Kitahara Sosuke reached out and tapped the girl's forehead, and Rin immediately covered her forehead and shrank back. He didn't hide anything and openly showed the two of them his phone screen, which ended right at the part where Kitahara Sosuke had politely declined Yomo Choko's request.

"Hmph, if you want to go, I can make time for you."

Feng gave a soft hum, but the smile on her lips showed that she was quite satisfied with Kitahara Sosuke's reply.

"Hey, isn't Kaede going tomorrow? If I go out with Sosuke alone, does that count as a date?"

Rin blinked her golden eyes quietly, looking at Hoshizuki Kaede with a blank expression: "This is the first time I've split up with Kaede, but with Sosuke around, it doesn't seem so bad?"

"Idiot, you idiot, who said I wasn't going tomorrow!"

Xingyuefeng reached out and pinched her younger sister's cheeks with both hands, then gently pulled them apart. The girl's pretty face became incredibly elastic under her older sister's torment.

"Waaah, Feng, don't pull my face..."

Because her face was being pulled, Ling could only make indistinct sounds. She could only reach out and tickle the other person's armpit to force them to defend themselves.

"Okay, stop fooling around, class is about to start."

Kitahara Sosuke smiled, moved his desk back to its original place, and found it quite pleasing to the eye to watch two identical beautiful girls playfully bickering.

The afternoon class bell rang amidst the laughter and banter of the group.

"Five, four, three, two, one! Sorry, Sosuke, I'm off to grab the new Date A Live figure of Rokuro, so I'm leaving now!"

As Yoshihiko Uego counted down, the school bell rang precisely on time, just as the other person finished counting.

Yoshihiko Uego immediately stood up, and before Shizuka Hiratsuka on the stage could say "get out of class dismissed," he rushed out of the classroom like a gust of wind, leaving behind only a light, fleeting sentence.

"Kitahara-kun."

Hiratsuka Shizuka helplessly tapped her brow.

"Yes."

Kitahara Sosuke stood up cleanly and efficiently, but inwardly he kept cursing, "This guy runs fast enough, but why did he have to call out my name?"

"Tell Shangxiang to remember to submit a 2000-word reflection to me on Monday. Let's tentatively title it 'My Experience of Buying Limited Edition Items'."

"Okay, I will pass it on."

As Kitahara Sosuke calmly nodded, a burst of cheerful laughter erupted in the classroom. Hiratsuka Shizuya, whose previously serious expression had softened into a slight smile, continued:

"That concludes today's lesson. Have a wonderful weekend, everyone."

"Goodbye, Hiratsuka-sensei!"

"See you Monday, teacher!"

"Hiratsuka-sensei, are you free this weekend? We... oh dear!"

The classroom went from complete silence to complete activity in just a few seconds. Besides the usual farewells, a few daring male students tried to ask Ms. Hiratsuka out, and without exception, they were all hit hard on the forehead with chalk.

Kitahara Sousuke packed his schoolbag and secretly took out the little trio that he had hidden in his desk. The little thing didn't make a sound and slept through the afternoon until school was over, which was quite rare.
