Chapter 8 Limited Otaku Eriri

"Finally back in my room..."

Back in her room, Eriri immediately removed her invisible "young lady" mask, stretched lazily without any regard for her image, and then tossed her schoolbag onto the sofa.

"You idiot, Kiyono, sit by yourself for a while, I'm going to the dressing room to change my clothes."

Kiyono Makoto silently turned his head and looked at the high-end sofa that could seat at least four people:

"Is it reasonable for a bedroom to have such a large sofa?"

As expected of a capitalist's daughter, her room is ridiculously large.

A bed and bookshelves are standard features. In addition, there is a sofa, a TV and a desktop computer that looks like it has high-end configuration, two clean desks, one piled with books and the other covered with messy manuscript papers, and even a dedicated dressing room... All that's missing is a bathroom, and you can stay in the room for three months straight.

"It's too empty and lonely, and the sofa is the most comfortable place to sit, so it makes perfect sense."

Eriri answered as she walked toward the dressing room.

"...See what books you have."

Kiyono Makoto walked curiously to the bookshelf.

The bookshelf was large and full of books, mostly comics and light novels. I didn't see any doujinshi, which Eriri must have hidden in a secret corner.

Turning around and walking to the desk, one can see it covered with manuscript paper and many pencils. A ferocious and evil orc leaps off the page, and the female protagonist seems to be a defeated female knight.

obviously.

Like her senior, Eriri didn't give up her hobbies even after becoming a gamer, and she still draws doujinshi.

Kiyono Makoto glanced at the manuscript briefly, then turned and returned to the sofa. He didn't rummage through the papers, since they belonged to someone else and he wouldn't touch them without permission.

Pat-pat. (Four) ∞

Not long after, clear footsteps came from behind.

Kiyono Makoto looked in the direction of the sound and was surprised to find that Takumi behind him had suddenly turned into a living person.

She had taken off her school uniform and put on a green tracksuit with her junior high school badge. Her signature blonde twin ponytails were also undone, and her hair was casually draped behind her. A pair of thick black-rimmed glasses covered almost half of her face. If she was a perfect young lady at school, she was now an ordinary, unkempt homebody.

“Great…it’s a hidden limited edition Otaku Pear.”

Kiyono Makoto's feelings were complicated.

Eriri's "homebody mode" is a special form that ordinary people would never have the chance to see.

In other words, in Eriri's heart, her status has already surpassed that of an ordinary friend, right?

"You idiot, Seino's eyes are so strange..." Eriri crossed her arms and squinted, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Kiyono Makoto pushed up his glasses, which weren't even on his nose:

"I'm sorry, Eriri-sama is so cute after changing her clothes, I was so shocked that I forgot to say anything."

"Pah!"

Eriri spat lightly upon hearing this, and arrogantly raised her chin:

"Compliment without any emotion deserves zero points."

After a pause, Eriri gave a soft hum and explained:

"Since I'm home, I should wear comfortable clothes... This tracksuit I'm wearing is super comfortable, that's all."

Kiyono Makoto casually said:

"If my classmates at school saw this, they would definitely be shocked, right?"

Eriri put her hands on her hips and snorted, "I wouldn't just bring anyone home like that."

Upon hearing this, Seiji Kiyono laughed:

So, I'm actually a special case?

"Shut up." Eriri's pretty face flushed slightly, and she glared at me, both embarrassed and annoyed, but she denied it with a haughty tone, "I just asked you for help, otherwise I wouldn't have brought you home!"

"..."

After making a few complaints, Eriri quickly bit her lower lip, her expression turning serious:

"I just messaged my mom, and she said she'll be home in half an hour... I hope I won't encounter any danger during that time."

"Don't worry unnecessarily," Kiyono Makoto reassured softly. "It will be a little after five in half an hour. It's not dark yet, so it's not nighttime."

Eriri plopped down on the sofa, picked up the remote, and turned on the TV.

"It's not wrong for the people of Qi to worry about the sky falling again. I saw an article online that said archaeologists discovered that the location of the State of Qi was once hit by a meteorite, which must have caused great disaster and casualties. So it's perfectly normal for the surviving people of Qi to worry about meteorites falling from the sky again."

"And there's that idiom, 'to mark the boat to find the sword.'"

Eriri continued to complain:

"When I was little, I thought that person was so stupid, but now that I think about it, they might actually be very smart... Do you even know why, you idiot Kiyono?"

Seino Makoto cupped his hands in a respectful gesture: "Please enlighten me, Eriri-sensei."

"Humph~"

Eriri gave a smug hum, raised her delicate chin, and spoke in a clear, pleasant voice:

“The security situation in ancient times was not as good as it is today. There was often a risk of being robbed on the road. The lone man who marked the boat to find his sword lost his precious sword in the water. Without a weapon to defend himself, he might have been robbed and killed by the boatman.”

"So the real reason for carving marks on the ship with a dagger was not to retrieve the sword later, but to tell others that I still have a weapon and not to mess with me."

Kiyono Makoto was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected it to be interpreted this way, but logically it was completely self-consistent, and he silently gave it a thumbs up.

"Eri-sensei is indeed a genius girl, with an IQ of at least 160."

Boom!

Eriri clenched her little fist and pounded it:

"You idiot, Seino! I've seen Forrest Gump, okay?!"

Now that her hair is undone, Eriri can't use her twin tails as weapons, so she can only punch people. Unfortunately, it doesn't hurt at all; it's more like a massage.

Seino Makoto blocks the little fist of the house pear:

"Do you know that the movie is an inspirational film, but the original work is a thoroughly satirical novel?"

"Huh?"

"In the movie, Jenny is a drug addict, a promiscuous woman, gets sick, and then abandons Forrest. But in the novel, all of these are things Forrest does."

"You're kidding, right?" Zhai Li's eyes widened. "Forrest Gump is a scumbag?"

"That's correct from the original novel."

"..."

After a brief chat, Kiyono Makoto quickly got down to business:

"Auntie will be back soon. Before that, there's something I need to take care of first."

Eriri looked over curiously: "What is it?"

"The curse hasn't been resolved yet," Kiyono Makoto said matter-of-factly. "I don't know what will happen tonight. If the curse on me isn't resolved beforehand, I might mess things up at a crucial moment. So I can only ask Eriri for help."

Since it concerned her mother's safety, Eriri naturally wouldn't refuse:

"Since you've asked so sincerely, I'll reluctantly help you... Hurry up and lie down."

Upon hearing this, Kiyono Makoto lowered his head, his gaze falling on Takumi's feet. Her jade-like feet, encased in black stockings, looked exceptionally small and delicate.

"You just changed your clothes, you didn't wash your feet, did you?"

"what?"

Eriri's small canine teeth gleamed coldly at the corner of her mouth.

They actually complained that my feet weren't clean?

It has absolutely no taste!

Seino Makoto discussed it and said:

"Back massage can give you pleasure points, so a lap pillow should work too... How about I try a lap pillow?"

"Don't even think about it!"

Eriri clenched her fists shyly, her eyes flashing with murderous intent:

"I'm going to wash my feet right now. Lie down and wait, I'm going to make you cry and beg for mercy today!"

"..."

Chapter 90 Bathtub Rescue

"Idiot Kiyono, I'm back."

Eriri quickly returned after washing up, without even wearing stockings, her bare, snow-white feet, like works of art, thumping as she walked up to Kiyono Makoto:

"Hurry up and lie down properly."

Kiyono Makoto suggested, "Actually, we could consider a lap pillow..."

"I've just thought about it, no way." Eriri crossed her arms and looked down at her. "Don't even think about a lap pillow. Helping me massage my back is already a huge favor."

"It can hardly be considered a favor, can it?"

Kiyono Makoto sprawled on the sofa, making sarcastic remarks.

Unable to get a lap pillow and lacking the strength for a massage, I had no choice but to ask Zhai Li to help me with a back massage in order to break today's curse.

"Heave-ho~"

Eriri covered her skirt with both hands, quickly raised her right foot, and stepped onto Kiyono Makoto's back.

This time, without stockings, the heat felt on the soles of her feet was even more noticeable, causing Eriri's pretty face to flush slightly.

"My back is so stiff, I really need to step on it a few more times."

"hiss……"
