My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

His right fist was engulfed in flames; this was the ultimate punch, one that would absolutely deplete the last bit of health from the character controlled by Dongfang Bai.

We won!

UMR showed an excited expression. The player using the Fire Mage was indeed very skilled, able to perform techniques that others couldn't, but still a little bit inferior to himself.

Who am I? I was the champion of the previous 'King of Fighters' game competition, and my strongest character is the bear. Apart from 'TSF', no one can rival me.

This time I encountered a very formidable opponent, which dispelled my resentment at not being able to play the "527" claw machine and pinball this time, and it really felt much better.

UMR especially likes to use their ultimate move to finish off an opponent, because it feels really cool! It's like a special technique has been unleashed!

"but……"

Dongfang Bai seemed to see the victorious smile on his opponent's face, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. It was a cunning smile; only the one who laughs last will be the victor.

His right hand suddenly began to move, tapping three keys in quick succession. The Fire Girl, who had been in a stalemate, seemed to awaken and suddenly soared into the sky.

hum! ! !

Fire Girl suddenly did a backflip in mid-air to dodge the fierce attack, and then used a fire dance that enveloped her in flames from the ground.

"Varied……?!"

UMR was shocked. The victorious smile on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a deep frown. Her final, deadly punch had been dodged.

Logically speaking, Fire Girl should have had no chance of dodging this punch, but the opponent skillfully seized the gap in her whirlwind and dodged the fatal blow.

It's alright. Even if you dodge this attack, victory still belongs to you.

UMR, who had just been somewhat shocked, suddenly recovered and put on a victorious smile again. This victory still belonged to her!

Why? Because her health bar was almost full, while her opponent only had a sliver of health left!

With just a sliver of health left, even if the opponent is in a defensive stance and is hit by a casual punch or kick, they will definitely lose!

"Humph!"

You think you can one-shot me with a sliver of health? You think you can kill me instantly?

With only ten seconds left in the game, you managed to kill my UMR, who was almost at full health!?

I immediately devoured this video game console, which weighed tens of kilograms!

The bear man, struck by this attack, was forced into a prolonged stalemate. Then, the fire woman descended from the sky, crashing down on the bear man like a fiery phoenix.

"Drink!"

Finally, the Fire Maiden's image suddenly appeared on the screen, signifying that she had unleashed her ultimate move, "Nine Heavens Crimson Phoenix Dance," after which every part of her body was enveloped in flames.

Then, it suddenly crashes into the bear-man in the air from the ground. If this attack hits, the opponent will instantly disappear with only one-third of their total health remaining.

boom!

The fire woman, her entire body enveloped in flames, crashed heavily into the bear man in mid-air. The bear man, who clearly still had a third of his health remaining, had all his health vanish in an instant from the impact of this powerful attack.

This is the Fire Girl's high damage output. With just one combo followed by her ultimate, she instantly turned the tables and killed the Bear Man who was almost at full health. It's terrifying.

"call."

Dongfang Bai narrowed his eyes slightly. Just now, his right hand pressed 27 buttons in 7 seconds to unleash a combo that was enough to turn the tide of battle. If this battle video were recorded, it would definitely be included in the highlights.

It was so spectacular that the Fire Mage, with only a sliver of health left, suddenly dodged the skill and then unleashed a dazzling fire combo that instantly killed the full-health enemy.

So cool!

"We won...we won!"

Akiyama Mio was stunned. She had just clearly seen the game character controlled by Dongfang Bai being beaten so badly that it couldn't move. Just when she thought Dongfang Bai was going to lose.

Suddenly, the game turned around, and the battle ended in one fell swoop.

"Oh!"

Kotobuki Tsumugi raised her little hand, clearly very excited. She occasionally played games, but had never played video games before, so she was extremely happy this time.

"This is way too much..."

Ritsu Tainaka was completely stunned. She occasionally played video games, but this was the first time she had ever seen such an exciting match.

Both the Fire Girl controlled by Dongfang Bai and the Bear Man on the other side possessed top-notch awareness and skills, but unfortunately, Dongfang Bai was slightly better.

The opponent did not realize that Dongfang Bai had deliberately created an opening, forcing them to unleash that combo.

Even if the bear man didn't use his ultimate move to finish the game, but instead used other attacks, Dongfang Bai would still have a chance to turn the tide. However, he felt that the bear man's most likely outcome was that he would use his ultimate move to finish the game.

puff.

UMR slumped in her chair, beads of sweat trickling down her forehead. She had actually lost. Although she knew the Fire Maiden was very strong, she hadn't expected her to lose like this.

That aerial flip was crucial; it allowed her to precisely and skillfully intercept her own ultimate attack, or perhaps it was something the opponent had planned from the beginning.

Who on earth is it? How could they have such technology? Could it be 'TSF'? No, if it were that guy, he would be happily running over to show off by now.

And that guy doesn't seem to know how to use Fire Maiden.

Driven by curiosity, UMR slowly stood up, wanting to walk to the other side to see who the player was and how they could have such amazing skills.

UMR slowly walked over at 4.8. The first thing she saw was a group of very cute girls gathered there. She was stunned. Could it be that the person opposite her was also a girl?

I'd really like to get to know her. I never thought there would be such a skilled female gamer. I've never met any female gamers who are exceptionally good at games other than TSF!

Then, UMR suddenly froze, because she immediately saw that the person sitting in the gaming chair was a boy.

He was very handsome, with short black hair and bangs that covered his forehead. When I looked at him, he was also looking at me.

Those incredibly deep black pupils... This scene felt strangely familiar, as if I'd seen it countless times before. And that boy's face...

"Brother...brother, brother, brother!?!?"

"Huh...?"

Akiyama Mio and the other three were stunned. They stared blankly at the 'girl' in front of them. They could tell that she was a girl, and her voice was very high-pitched, but because she was wearing a mask, she looked very strange.

"Ok?"

Dongfang Bai put down the joystick in his hand and looked at the girl in front of him. She had a very surprised expression on her face, but her outfit was really strange.

But the girl felt very familiar to him, as if he had seen her somewhere before, and she called him 'brother'?

"You are……?"

Dongfang Bai asked with some doubt, and the girl's stammering tone seemed to indicate that she was quite shocked by herself.

What exactly is going on...?

Did she just walk over from the other machine? So, the person who just played against me online using the Bear Man was actually her?

No way...? Are there really that many girls who are good at gaming these days? I won't even mention how amazing Black Cat was before, but this time I've encountered another incredibly skilled gamer.

"It's me, Umaru! Umaru!"

The girl, who called herself Xiaomai, pointed at herself anxiously. She was absolutely certain that she could not be mistaken. Although she had not seen Dongfang Bai for several years, she had a very deep impression of him.

Scent! Not the kind of scent you smell, Doma Umaru felt that the other person was definitely Touhou Bai himself!

"Umaru...?"

Dongfang Bai closed his eyes slightly, and then the red sphere in his mind suddenly lit up with a dazzling light. He used his memory ability to search for memories in his head.

The first thing that comes to mind is when I was ten years old.

A little girl with long, light orange hair and a pure white dress followed behind him with a bright smile on her face. She seemed to radiate a dazzling light, just like a little angel.

She was very cute and was said to be his distant cousin. However, because the relationship was so distant, the two were not related by blood at all. But since the Dongfang family had very few relatives left, they got along very well.

When I first came to Japan a few years ago, it was also the first time I met her. At that time, my adoptive father brought me here, so the two of us quickly became friends and our relationship became very close.

Often, while the adults were talking, the two of them would sneak out to play. However, there was no need to worry about safety, as someone would always be there to protect them. Their running out to play was also tacitly approved by their elders.

Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, she is also an anime character from the two-dimensional world. I had already expected that there were many anime characters in this world, so I wasn't particularly surprised, just a little amazed.

I never expected that after five or six years, this younger sister would still remember me, and even recognize me at a glance...

"It's Umaru-chan! It's been so long!"

Dongfang Bai suddenly realized what was happening, and Doma Umaru, who was standing opposite him, also exclaimed with delight, "It really was Brother Dongfang Bai!"

A huge sense of surprise welled up in Doma Umaru's heart. She had been very disappointed when she heard that her brother had run away from home, which was why she hadn't planned to study in China!

But to my utter surprise, Brother Bai actually ran away from home and came to Japan, and he just happened to run into me! This was simply a stroke of luck!

However, since she ran away from home, Bai-gege's bank cards and such should have been frozen, right? Then what if he doesn't even have a place to stay? But it doesn't matter, Xiaomai lives alone too!

"Ahem, um... excuse me, who are you two...?"

Ritsu Tainaka coughed twice, seemingly trying to break the current situation. This girl had suddenly called out "brother" and walked over, and Dongfang Bai had even responded. What was going on...?

Moreover, none of them seemed to have ever heard that he had a younger sister.

"Ah, let me introduce her. Her name is Doma Umaru, and she's my younger sister."

Dongfang Bai stood up and introduced himself, but actually he didn't expect to meet Doma Umaru here. It really was a coincidence...

"You are..."

Doma Umaru frowned slightly, but because she was wearing a mask, no one else noticed. It was only then that she noticed the four girls next to her brother.

They were all very cute girls, especially the one with long black hair, who was super cute according to my own standards. She was even with her brother and they seemed to have a good relationship.

What is their relationship with their brother?

"They are members of the same club as me. They came out to buy musical instruments and stopped by to play around a bit."

Dongfang Bai immediately noticed Doma's confusion and explained.

"You, hello."

Akiyama Mio greeted Umaru first, even though her clothes were really strange and didn't look like a girl's attire. But since she was Touhou Shiro's little sister, she still had to greet her properly.

"Is that so? Thank you for taking care of me all this time, brother."

Umaru suddenly became cheerful, unconsciously exuding an approachable aura, and her every gesture was very polite. She really is my little sister...
