Although excessive violence can give rise to "fear" and manipulate people's minds in another way, in the eyes of Ritsu Naruse, such behavior is nothing more than a means used by villains who are intoxicated with power.

If wanting to have sex with a beautiful girl is a desire, then insisting on pursuing one's own taste is also a desire.

How can there be a superior or inferior relationship between these two desires?

And if they believe themselves to be creatures more transcendent than humans, why would they use methods that even humans look down upon to achieve their goals?

If he wanted to follow his own desires and reach the end of sexual intercourse, he would launch an open and aboveboard offensive, rather than resorting to despicable means like an insect to satisfy the pitiful sense of superiority in his heart.

It is true that human concepts surround him, but the ancient dragon's pride and self-esteem have never disappeared.

If we have to compare, the latter will definitely have the upper hand.

It's like a game. When he chooses to be a player, it means he accepts the rules. Even if the situation is unfavorable, he will not do something like "turning the table" that he can't afford to play.

It seemed as if he had never expected Ritsu Narose to say such a thing, and the light in his evil eye suddenly dimmed.

Then, as if it couldn't bear to watch any longer, it exploded.

Accompanied by a loud explosion and bright light, Ritsu Narose suddenly opened his eyes.

"How do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

What appeared before his eyes was the worried gaze of Hachiman Kailing.

"I feel fine...what's wrong?"

When he wanted to sit up, Ritsu Narose felt that the touch behind his head did not seem to be the pillow he took a nap, but the touch of pantyhose and thighs overlapping, a delicate feeling that made him unable to resist rubbing.

His body stiffened involuntarily. After a few seconds of silence, Naruse Ritsu asked, "I remember... I should be lying on the pillow?"

"Well, but you looked a little uncomfortable after falling asleep, so I massaged your head." Shaking her hands which were still wearing white long-sleeved gloves, Hachiman Kailing, who was kneeling on the bed, patted her thighs covered with a black robe.

She didn't seem to be shy at all and said openly, "If you feel uncomfortable, you can continue."

Staring blankly at the girl in front of him, Ritsu Narose, who had been talking to himself in his dream, could no longer deliberately avoid certain thoughts.

but……

"why?"

This was the only thing he couldn't figure out.

Yawata Kairin should have seen his relationship with Shiina Riki, and she doesn't seem to lack common sense. So why would she reach out to him, even though he already has a girlfriend? Just like the characters in the story she's talking about...

The topic she had been avoiding was brought up by the other party. Hachiman Kailing lowered her eyes, then looked at Naruse Ritsu and said, "When you meet someone you can talk to and get along well with, you always want to stay with them, right?"

As if this sentence alone wasn't enough to convince her, she smiled and said, "Maybe it's just because I've never been in love that I'm like this now."

"Is that true?"

"...I'm not kidding, of course."

Looking at Hachiman Kailing in silence, Naruse Ritsu suddenly said, "It's not that I doubt your judgment, but... I may not be as good as you think."

"for example?"

"For example, I'm currently dating three girls."

Leaning back slightly, Hachiman Kailing's face was instantly filled with surprise and confusion. She looked Naruse Ritsu up and down, then turned to an expression of no surprise.

"Lixi...is she included?"

Like a sinner confessing to a nun, Ritsu Narose nodded.

However, of the two people in the room, one was not a real nun, and the other did not feel that she was sincerely repenting.

Sitting on the same bed, the girl in nun's clothes showed a somewhat inexplicable smile.

38. Making a Feint to the East and Attacking in the West

"I'm in a good mood."

Standing in the shadow of the teaching building, it was the first time that Shiina Riki saw Hachiman Kailing act so... curiously.

Hearing Riki's words, Hachiman Hailing paused as she opened the can. However, this slight awkwardness went unnoticed by the other party. She asked nonchalantly, "Is it obvious?"

"Compared to usual, it's quite obvious." Shiina Riki glanced at his friend again and asked casually, "Did something good happen to you?"

"Hehe~ Maybe."

"What do you mean by 'maybe'?"

Shiina Riki couldn't help but roll her eyes at Hachiman Kairin's sudden elation. Stretching again, she prepared to return to the classroom to catch up on some sleep.

"So sleepy... maybe you're busy with band stuff?"

"Yeah, that guy Ritsu Naruse got some sheet music out of somewhere and asked me to arrange it into a rock version for him."

Although Shiina Riki's tone sounded as if she was annoyed by the other person's trouble, people who knew her could hear the pride and joy hidden in her words.

"I have to revise it at night, and then revise it while practicing in the afternoon. It's really troublesome."

For Hachiman Kailing, who longs to have a fixed band, this is undoubtedly a happy trouble.

But she doesn't feel jealous because of this.

Because before jealousy arose, the guilt in her heart had not yet dissipated.

Although she knew that her behavior was a bit despicable and she felt sorry for Shiina Ritsuki, she had no intention of telling the other party about the change in her relationship with Naruse Ritsu.

As long as you don’t say it, it’s not “cheating”.

As the saying goes: Drink while you can.

She decided to keep it a secret as long as possible. Returning to her seat, Kailin Hachiman opened the chat software with a happy look on her face and started chatting with Ritsu Naruse who was on the other side of the city.

Sanjiao Chuhua, who was sitting in the back seat, looked at her profile with surprise, amazed that this classmate who usually looked cold could actually show such a lovely smile.

As for Shiina Riki, who was sitting only one seat in front of Hachiman Kairin, she naturally knew nothing about the little movements behind her.

When school was over, she rushed out of the classroom first with the best grades and threw herself into the adaptation project with great enthusiasm.

The part-time job schedule these days was adjusted under the arrangement of senior Rinrinko, so Shiina Riki was able to rush to the recording studio first and start to calm down and prepare for warm-up.

By the way, it's also a preparation for torturing some overconfident guitarists later.

"I say, this part is too difficult, right? Can't you make it a little simpler?"

"No! If we change it, the rhythm of the entire piece will be affected. We must maintain a strong sense of speed."

"Eh? That's too difficult, right?"

"If you don't play, there are plenty of people who will."

Looking at Kaname Rana who was concentrating on memorizing the music score on the other side, Shiina Riki no longer had any intention of confronting this pink-haired girl.

Just leave her in the top lane and let her roam free - she will try her best to make up for it before she ruins herself, so in a sense, it is really worry-free.

Looking at the cat on the other side who was more talented than her and was working harder than her, Chihaya Aine was speechless and could only obediently go back to practice with her guitar.

Seeing the two guitarists in the band practicing peacefully, a scene of vitality and development emerged in Shiina Riki's eyes.

But when she thought about how they were not as serious in their previous practice as they were now, Shiina Riki had an indescribable feeling.

——Especially Nagasaki Suyo, before, she almost had the word "slacking off" written on her face, she was not as hardworking as she is now.

Finally, looking at Takamatsu Deng who was sitting in the corner concentrating on writing lyrics, Shiina Riki hesitated for a while and decided not to disturb him.

While they were practicing, Ritsu Narose also came to RING, preparing to go to the recording studio where the girls were.

However, as he walked up the stairs, he suddenly felt someone patting his shoulder from behind.

While thinking about his weekend plans, Ritsu Narose turned around and saw the cold-hearted sister in her school uniform smiling at him.

The girl's medium-length black hair was scattered behind her head, and her emerald eyes were full of smiles, like gems reflecting beautiful light under the light.

Picking up the paper bag in her hand, Hachiman Kailing raised her eyebrows and took a few steps closer to him.

If he were discovered here, Ritsu Narose felt that he would probably not be able to escape the fate of being forced to go to a place with abundant water and grass, to be reborn, and to devote himself to the supreme authority.

Taking a half step back, Ritsu Narose reached out and took the paper bag handed to him by the girl.

"Don't you want to take a look?"

"...You didn't buy any weird clothes, did you?"

His body instinctively kept sending out warnings, and Naruse Ritsu felt that something was amiss. However, Hachiman Kairin didn't care that Naruse Ritsu had noticed his little thoughts, and just looked at him with a smile.

In order to prevent negative incidents such as "the girl from the recording studio seeing them and causing misunderstandings", Ritsu Narose had no choice but to meet her request and took out the clothes packed in the paper bag.

After looking at it over and over again, he couldn't find any difference between this suit and the one he bought before.

Looking up at Hachiman Kairin, Naruse Ritsu realized that she had a smile on her face, as if she had succeeded in a mischief.

Naruse Ritsu thought Hachiman Kairin was on the second floor, so he placed himself on the third floor. However, he never expected that Hachiman Kairin was actually standing on the first floor and even pulled away the ladder that supported him to the third floor.

Just like what they did in the hotel room yesterday, the figure of the girl in Ritsu Narose's vision gradually expanded, and then gently pressed against him, as if to blend their breath together.

Fortunately, their location was out of the surveillance range and no extra noise came from the bottom of the stairs.

A person feels lonely because he is afraid to take the first step. But if he takes the first step, the next steps will be a natural progression.

For a moment, only the sound of breathing could be heard from the two of them. Hachiman Kailing moved one hand to the back of Naruse Ritsu, as if feeling his body temperature.

Instead of letting herself sink into this intoxicating atmosphere, Hachiman Kailing quickly took the initiative to loosen the arms that had just been tightly holding the other person.

Whenever she and Ritsu Narose locked eyes, she would inadvertently find herself drawn into those azure eyes, filled with a dangerous allure. With a faint blush of warmth on her face, she tried to calm her rapidly pounding heart while putting on a magnanimous expression as she bid farewell to Ritsu Narose.

After watching Hachiman Kairin's figure disappear at the stairs, Naruse Ritsu walked towards the recording studio on this floor.

However, when he was about to knock on the door, he suddenly realized a problem.

How is he going to explain the bag of cosplay costumes in his hand?

At this moment, Mingse Ritsu finally realized that the trap left for him by Hachiman Kailing was hidden here.

39. Old photos of memories

A person who keeps a secret must keep the secret that he has a secret, and Ritsu Narose has a little too many secrets.

To do this, he had to give up the right secrets at the right time to protect secrets of higher priority from being discovered.

Having not yet figured out how to explain the matter of Hachiman Kairin, Ritsu Narose could only hide the part about her and recount the whole story of why he came to the recording studio with a bag of clothes.

In fact, that’s why he’s in the studio.

For Ritsu Narose, just thinking about his daily lunch and dinner choices is enough to torment him.

Now asking him to pick out the ones he likes more from a bunch of photos he already likes is undoubtedly a torture for those with indecisiveness.

If possible, he would like to send all these photos over and let the editorial staff think about how to choose them.

Unfortunately, the editor who is out and about all day catching authors probably doesn't have time to sit in the office and quietly select, so he leaves the selection to someone else he doesn't know. Ritsu Naruse can't help but suspect that the other party will choose some strange photos out of a sense of humor.

Therefore, he...

"I'm so sorry for taking up your practice time."

The next afternoon, standing at the gate of the yard, Ritsu Narose touched the back of his head with an extremely embarrassed look on his face.

Since I couldn’t pick out the right photos myself, I had to ask people I knew to help me make a decision.

Chihaya Aine was naturally very interested in this new thing. She was tortured to the point of losing consciousness by the difficult song and needed this kind of event to cleanse the weakness in her heart.

Nagasaki Suyo sees this as a great opportunity to understand Naruse Ritsu - trying to restore the value of the plum blossom that falls from the sky to its peak.

Shiina Riki was in a rush, but not as much as she had been during the previous live performance. After all, there was no rigid deadline, and Naruse Ritsu wasn't the one sending messages in the wee hours of the morning. She had plenty of time to create the song she had in mind.

When I walked into the study, I saw Takamatsu Deng holding the book that Narose Ritsu gave her when she went to the recording studio yesterday.

"Where The Dragons Went" - He borrowed the name of a story he had read to name this collection of stories that records his past experiences.

The book that Takamatsu Deng is holding is not a product printed in batches by a publishing house, but an original text that was individually bound and made by Naruse Ritsu.

Compared with normally published light novels, the most important illustrations and covers are naturally missing - and this is exactly their goal today.

When you walk into the living room, you can see the small blackboard covered with photos covered with magnets.

"Oh oh!" As if seeing a treasure hidden deep in a cave, Chihaya Aine couldn't help but clench her hands and let out a meaningful exclamation.

"These are the parts I have selected myself. I have kept many of the remaining photos in the album next to it." As he spoke, Ritsu Narose invited the girls to sit down.

After putting down her schoolbag, Nagasaki Suyo went straight to Ritsu Narushe's house after school. She naturally walked into the kitchen with him and prepared tea with him under the subtle gaze of everyone.
