Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

After a moment of pause, Shutara Senjumaru abruptly raised his head, staring at Aozaki Mazuki with bloodshot eyes.

"Don't... treat me like a child!"

Aozaki Mayuki was stunned, and he carefully examined Shutara Senjumaru again.

She was wearing the Zero Division uniform, a black and white uniform embroidered with black stamen flowers, representing her identity and status as a member of the Zero Division.

Her long hair, which was always tied up high with a golden headdress, now cascaded down like a waterfall, falling across her back.

Each strand of hair shone with a jet-black sheen, as smooth as silk, gently brushing against her fair skin.

Her naturally long, straight hair added a unique charm to her, making her already elegant temperament even more feminine and alluring.

After saying that, Shutara Senjumaru remained silent, and the atmosphere became unusually heavy.

In order to do as she wished and get rid of the lofty attitude of the "adult".

Aozaki Mayuki slowly bent down, kneeling in front of her to keep her at eye level.

"..."

Aozaki Mayuki tried to break the silence, but didn't know what to say.

Shutara Senjumaru's gaze slowly moved downwards, and in his half-closed, hazy eyes, he saw the image of Aozaki Mayuki.

Then, her hands began to move, gently resting on Aozaki Mayuki's shoulders.

Aozaki Mayuki felt her touch and her body stiffened slightly.

However, the next moment, Shutara Senjumaru suddenly exerted force and pushed Aozaki Mayuki to the ground.

Caught off guard, Aozaki Mayuki fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Shutara Senjumaru quickly lay on top of him, pressing him down with his body.

Aozaki Mayuki's eyes widened in surprise; he never expected Shutara Senjumaru to do such a thing.

But he did not resist, because he felt he had no reason to resist.

Being pressed down like this isn't bad at all; in fact, it's quite comfortable.

So he calmly accepted it all, lying quietly on the ground, letting Shutara Senjumaru suppress him.

Shutara Senjumaru's movements, illuminated by the shifting shadows of the moonlight, appeared dreamlike and ethereal, like an unreal dream.

Her hands moved again, slowly reaching towards Aozaki Mayuki's cheeks, and then gently cupping them in her palms.

Aozaki Mayuki paused slightly, and subconsciously opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

However, just as he was about to speak, Shutara Senjumaru suddenly leaned down and kissed him quickly and gently.

This sudden action surprised Aozaki Maki somewhat, but he did not resist or object excessively.

Although it wasn't their first kiss, Aozaki Mayuki never expected Shutara Senjumaru to be so skilled.

It was just a simple and direct contact, with only ordinary mucous membranes touching each other, and the coolness was transmitted from Shutara Senjumaru's lips to his body.

As time passed, their lips gradually parted, ending this brief moment.

"Actually, you didn't need to do that, senior. No one can replace you. I am not, and have never intended for Senjumaru to be replaced by someone else..."

Aozaki Mayuki licked her slightly moist lips, savoring the feeling from just now, as if she was still immersed in the beautiful memories of that moment.

"I know, of course I can see through such things, don't underestimate me."

Shutara Senjumaru's face turned red, and the stiff-bodied Shutara Senjumaru-senpai screamed in shame and indignation.

Her excited expression made it hard to believe that she had actually figured it out all along.

As if to vent her anger and helplessness, she gripped Aozaki Mayuki's collar tightly with both hands, forcefully pulling the distance between them to the extreme.

Under the moonlight, Aozaki Mayuki and Shutara Senjumaru stared at each other for about ten minutes.

Shutara Senjumaru suddenly spoke:

"You said you liked me, didn't you?"

Her voice carried a hint of provocation, yet also seemed to contain a tone of despair.

Aozaki Mayuki felt her breath on his face. He took a deep breath, looked at her earnestly, and said:

"Senior, of course I like you, but now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, you should think it over carefully. You might regret it if you act impulsively."

That tone again, how awful...

Shutara Senjumaru responded even more vehemently:

"Then let me continue to love you. I accept your confession!"

Chapter 375 Fiancé(e)

And so, Aozaki Mayuki, who had inadvertently gained a wife, was in a great mood and hummed a song as she walked into the bathroom in the guest room area.

He took a relaxing bath and drank a few cups of sake to help him sleep.

Then, she buried herself in the warm bed and hugged the soft, fragrant pillows tightly.

"I have to get up early tomorrow to prepare breakfast. Goodnight."

"...Goodnight my foot!!!"

Held in Aozaki Mayuki's arms, Shutara Senjumaru screamed in embarrassment and indignation, her whole body hardening.

After all, even if she is a mature and composed senior, she cannot accept this situation without any ripples in her heart.

This was the first time she had ever slept in bed with a man.

She kept pushing against Aozaki Mayuki's chest with both hands, trying to distance herself from him.

"Why did Xiaozhenyue come to my room?! And why did she so naturally get into my bed?! Your room is right next door!!"

"Didn't you say you accepted my confession? Then we're lovers, right? You idiot senior."

Aozaki Mayuki blinked, looking completely innocent.

He stared at Shutara Senjumaru with a bewildered expression, as if he had no idea that there was anything wrong with his behavior.

Shutara Senjumaru, his face flushed, clutched his clothes tightly and made "woo-woo-woo" sounds.

He seemed to want to say something, but found it difficult to speak.

"Yes, yes, yes...that's right! But what does that have to do with you lying here with me? I'm not that kind of woman, get out of here right now!"

As Shutara Senjumaru spoke, he forcefully shoved Aozaki Mayuki, trying to drive her out of the room.

However, Aozaki Mayuki remained unmoved and simply waved her hand casually.

"Shutara-senpai has never been in a relationship, has he?" Aozaki Mayuki suddenly asked.

"That's right, are you mocking me?"

Shutara Senjumaru's face turned even redder, and she looked at Aozaki Mazuki with some anger.

"So... it's normal that Senju-senpai doesn't know. Sleeping together is as normal as eating three meals a day for lovers," Aozaki Mayuki explained with a smile.

"Is that so...?"

Shutara Senjumaru stared wide-eyed, somewhat incredulous.

“That’s right, you can ask Kiryu if you don’t believe me!” Aozaki Mayuki said confidently.

How could you even ask something like that?!

Shutara Senjumaru was so anxious that he jumped up and down. This kind of question was really too embarrassing.

Moreover, the person being questioned was Hikifune Kiryu, so it was even less likely that he would ask him!

"Senjumaru has already accepted my confession. Is this reliable senior going to break his promise and go back on his word?"

Aozaki Mayuki remained unmoved, steadfastly adhering to the belief that sharing a bed should be a normal part of life for lovers, and held Shutara Senjumaru tightly in her arms.

Moreover, to be honest, this was just a made-up excuse. From the very beginning, he intended to shamelessly sleep with Shutara Senjumaru.

After all, they had inexplicably become lovers!

Now that I finally have the chance to be alone with this shy older sister openly and honestly, how could I miss such a great opportunity?

If you let such a good opportunity slip by, are you even human?

The kind and simple-minded older sister, Shutara Senjumaru, was completely unaware.

From the very beginning, she was destined to be unable to escape the fate of being manipulated by Aozaki Mayuki; the ending of everything was already predetermined.

Ultimately, she will blame herself for all of this.

Shutara Senjumaru felt both ashamed and angry, and tears almost welled up in his eyes.

"Be good, I won't do anything bad to you, it's just sleeping together."

Aozaki Mayuki was unexpectedly kind; he gently stroked Shutara Senjumaru's long hair, as if comforting a frightened little animal.

His eyes were full of tenderness, a stark contrast to his usual frivolous and dissolute manner.

Shutara Senjumaru lowered her head, not daring to look Aozaki Mayuki in the eye. Her eyes were wet, revealing a hint of shyness and unease.

When Aozaki Mayuki saw Shutara Senjumaru's expression, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a gentle smile that was different from her usual demeanor.

He said softly:

"You are my wife, and I am your husband. It's perfectly normal for us to sleep in the same bed, isn't it? There's absolutely no problem with it; it's reasonable, legal, and a matter of course!"

Shutara Senjumaru's face instantly turned bright red, and she stammered in response:

"Hmm...when did we become that kind of closer relationship?"

Aozaki Mayuki raised an eyebrow and said righteously:

"Any relationship that doesn't aim for marriage is just playing around! Is the senior trying to play around with the junior?"

Shutara Senjumaru was speechless after being confronted by Aozaki Mayuki. She shrank back and said somewhat aggrievedly:

"No... not."

Aozaki Mayuki gently patted Shutara Senjumaru's head and continued:

"Then that's it, we'll definitely get married, so we're engaged now. Don't forget what you said, have some self-awareness and take responsibility for me!"
