My name is Levi, and I work in anime.

That's pretty much it. When Li Wei got up to say goodbye, Senjougahara was completely unlike her usual sarcastic and arrogant self. Instead, she silently saw him off at his door, then out of the alley, and onto the street, until Li Wei said that if she kept seeing him off, they would be at his house. Only then did the girl finally stop.

If the real world is indeed a game, as Keima Katsuragi said, then Senjougahara's affection level has already reached over 90, and she's about to unlock the CG.

"By the way, there's one more thing."

Seeing the girl like this, the boy suddenly took her hand very seriously and carefully instructed his fiancée: "You look great with long, straight black hair, please don't cut it short!"

For some reason, he inexplicably thought that if he didn't say anything, Senjougahara might cut off her long, straight, black hair, which was of very good quality, in order to say goodbye to the past.

While short hair is lovely too, long, straight black hair definitely suits Senjougahara better.

"Eh?"

The young woman looked at her fiancé with some surprise, wondering how he knew she was thinking of cutting her hair.

However, since Li Wei made the request, let's just leave it at that; it's not a big deal anyway.

“Okay.” Senjougahara nodded in agreement.

The boy breathed a sigh of relief, confirming that he had nothing to worry about, and turned to wave goodbye.

Senjougahara Hitagi stood silently on the street, watching the boy walk away until he was no longer in sight, before turning and going home.

……

"Meow!"

"Ah, Himari?"

As soon as the door opened, the newly adopted cat looked like it had been bullied, appearing extremely pitiful, jumping around and trying to snuggle into the boy's arms.

But before that, a hand appeared out of nowhere in its path, grabbed the cat by the fur on its neck, and threw it onto the sofa, discarding it like trash.

"Sister Liuli?"

The boy looked with some curiosity at the mature older sister standing in front of him, whose figure and temperament exuded a sense of pressure.

As it turns out, even a gentleman like Li Wei couldn't help but be attracted by Liuli's magnificent and magnanimous spirit every time he saw her.

Of all the girls he had ever met, perhaps only Bagst could outshine her, but Bagst wasn't human.

Moreover, Sister Liuli has always appeared to be devoid of emotion, acting solely on instinct, and almost never resists any of the boy's actions.

Because they are driven purely by instinct, they act without any scruples.

Especially after taking back Dojigiri Yasutsuna from Mr. Huang Li, the frequency of the eldest sister's appearances increased dramatically, and she would often suddenly appear in strange places.

For example, if the boy is taking a bath in the bathroom, she will open the door and walk in as if no one else is there, and then hold Li Wei in her arms like a baby and soak him together, washing him clean inside and out. Her strength is astonishing. If she were to become a Heroic Spirit, she would definitely be a Bassac-class Servant.

For example, if the boy is packing his things to go out and he feels there is something wrong with his clothes, she will come up to him with concern, carry him back to his room, and strip him naked to put on clothes that she thinks are suitable. No matter how much he protests, it's no use—she doesn't understand.

For example, if a boy comes home too late and is about to stay up all night, she might think that this behavior is bad for his health. She might suddenly appear next to him, throw Li Wei onto the bed, and use her extremely despicable body to hold him down and force him to fall asleep. From another perspective, it's almost like she's devoured Li Wei.

But you can't get angry with her because she doesn't understand what you mean at all. So every time, Li Wei can only helplessly accept reality, and then he can't sleep well because he dreams of himself as Shiva churning the Ocean of Milk with a vajra, or as Uranus creating the gods with his mother Gaia.

Then, because he wasn't sleeping well, Liuli would find him even more diligently every night and continue to forcefully correct Li Wei with her body, thus creating a vicious cycle.

The only thing that comforted Li Wei was that when Saeko came to stay overnight, Ruri-nee never appeared directly, but silently spied on her, which made Li Wei feel strange.

"Meow..."

Seeing her owner struggling in that big-breasted monster's arms, Himari suddenly felt helpless about her future as a cat.

Things change every thirty years; sooner or later, she will rescue her master from this guy.

For now, we can only temporarily avoid confrontation and exercise restraint.

He's just a guy driven by instinct; he's not much of a competitor.

"Okay, okay, I got home a little late today. I'll take a shower and go to bed right away, okay?"

Having long been accustomed to Liuli's close care, Li Wei patted the older sister's back, signaling her to put him down.

Unfortunately, Liuli remains as difficult to communicate with as ever. Or rather, she only decides what to do next based on what she deems most appropriate.

Therefore, Himari watched helplessly as her master was forcibly stripped naked and thrown into the bath by that monster—the bathwater had already been prepared before the boy returned home, and then she followed him in.

It's...it's so enviable...I mean, shameless!

That's something you should only do after you're married. Master should be doing it with me.

Just before closing the bathroom door, Gujing Liuli glanced at Feiju seemingly unintentionally. Her eyes were no longer as calm as before; instead, they were full of mockery, smugness, confidence, and ridicule. She didn't seem like a spirit acting on instinct at all, but rather a thoughtful older sister who was gradually turning the boy into her own color!

"Meow!"

Himari subconsciously arched her back and breathed on it.

Master, this guy is no good; he's up to no good!

Unfortunately, Li Wei didn't see his older sister's look at all. Because he had been held in Liuli's arms to sleep again that night, with her body always pressed against him, his sleep quality was very poor, so the boy was not very energetic the next day.

This can't go on. We need to think of a solution, otherwise I'll really have to sleep in Liuli's arms every day.

Listless and lost in thought, this perfectly describes Li Wei at this moment, much to the displeasure of his acting homeroom teacher, Kirisu Mafuyu.

Why don't you take a look at your own new tights and seasonal clothes today?

If this continues, that woman, Hiratsuka Shizuka, will recover and return.

As a classmate in high school and college, the pink-haired acting homeroom teacher knew very well that he was possessive of his resources. Once he lost his position as acting homeroom teacher, it would be harder than climbing to heaven to do anything.

Should they take the initiative? Is this the fate of older female teachers?

Feeling inexplicably sad, Kirisu Mafuyu sighed, then received a call from the head of student affairs.

"Huh? Now? In such a hurry? We're already at the door? Okay, okay, I got it."

The students watched as their teacher hung up the phone, turned and left, only to return less than half a minute later, followed by a stunning red-haired girl.

"Is this... a transfer student? But judging from their age, they should be a senior in high school, right?"

"So beautiful, her figure is comparable to that of Himeko Akashima-senpai."

"Luckily, it was our class that came. If it had been the class next door, Class Monitor Katsura Hinagiku and Teacher Komoe might have been crushed the moment they saw this magnanimity."

Whispering, basically just whispering.

"This is a new transfer student. Please introduce yourself." Kirisu Mafuyu tapped the blackboard, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"Greetings, mortals. My name is Rias Gremory, and I will be your classmate for the next period of time."

The beautiful woman with long red hair scanned the classroom, and when she saw Li Wei, her eyes lit up, and she dropped a bombshell.

"I'm here to deepen my relationship with my fiancé, Mr. Li Wei. I'd appreciate your help, everyone. When we get married, I can take you all to hell for our wedding feast!"

"Eh!!!!" The classroom was initially silent, then suddenly erupted in a startling shout.

"Huh????" In the corner, Li Wei was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood.

As expected, there's no way to have any expectations of Sakata Gintoki.

PS: Who do you think will win the first Li Wei Chicken Dinner Contest (physical version)?

Chapter 25 Katsura Hinagiku: There's a cow!

During break time, Katsura Hinagiku, the pink-haired beauty who is both elegant and talented, is considered a perfect class representative alongside Hanekawa Tsubasa. She is the vice-captain of the kendo club and is overjoyed.

A few days ago, my sister went to drink with Hiratsuka-sensei again. Afterwards, she was severely reprimanded by her. Hiratsuka-sensei's wounds hadn't fully healed yet, which angered her so much that she hung my sister up and whipped her like a spinning top.

This has happened more than once or twice.

Ever since her parents abandoned her when she was six years old after racking up huge debts, her older sister has become self-destructive and addicted to alcohol, constantly causing her trouble. If it weren't for her high school classmates, Kirisu Mafuyu and Hiratsuka Shizuka, being kind people who couldn't bear to see them suffer and helped them out, her older sister probably wouldn't have even been able to pass the teacher's qualification exam and would have just become an alcoholic.

At least in Katsura Hinagiku's eyes, her biological older sister Katsura Yukiji's status was probably similar to that of Sakata Gintoki in Li Wei's eyes.

However, whether it was because she had drunk too much or because she was out of her mind from being beaten and spoke recklessly, the older sister suddenly said something shocking.

"Wow! Little Chu, you might as well kill your sister! You're going to marry that brat Li Wei sooner or later anyway, so it doesn't matter whether you have your sister or not!"

"What are you saying, sister?!???"

Startled by her older sister's sudden remark, she almost dropped her belt and instinctively wanted to act arrogantly.

Girls should be more reserved, after all. Even if she really likes a handsome young man, it's too unfair for her older sister to directly break through her defenses like that.

After all, there are just too many competitors. I met them late and we weren't even in the same class, so winning would be a bit of an obstacle.

"Hey, didn't I tell you this before?"

The older sister's face showed an even more surprised expression. After gesturing for her younger sister to put her down, she turned around and went back to her room. She searched through all the drawers and cabinets, and finally found a slightly old, creased document with clearly legible handwriting in the paper used to line wine bottles.

After hesitantly accepting the document from his sister, the first thing he saw was two large Chinese characters.

Marriage certificate

I had a very pleasant drink with Gui Xuelu today. She's a real gem; it would be a shame not to strengthen our family ties. I heard she has a younger sister, and I happen to have an adopted child named Li Wei. Why don't we arrange a marriage between them when they're all grown up?

[Signature: Sakata Gintoki. Engaged man: Li Wei]

There is another line of text below:

[Gintoki is right—Katsura Yukiji. Bride's fiancée: Katsura Hinagiku]

"What...what...what is this?!"

Like a bolt of lightning ripped through the night sky, the flawless pink-haired class monitor felt the sounds of phoenix flutes, zithers, and celestial music all around her, and she felt lightheaded and didn't know what to say.

"Hehehe, this is from when you were in elementary school. I was drinking with Li Wei's guardian, Sakata Gintoki, and that guy made me sign it."

The older sister, who was quite drunk, scratched her head, looking a little embarrassed: "Didn't I even tell you? I thought I'd give it to you when I got home that day, but I ended up using it to prop up a bottle. I forgot about it because I was too drunk. Look at my memory, I almost messed things up."

How could you so easily forget something that concerns your sister's lifelong happiness, you bastard!

Normally, Katsura Hinagiku would definitely roar like this.

But this time it was different; she had lost the ability to speak.

I initially thought this would be a difficult journey, that I was a penniless mule who would have to overcome numerous obstacles to win the heart of my beloved. Turns out, I was born in Rome!

As a result, my anger towards my sister's alcoholism has lessened considerably—if she didn't drink, I wouldn't have been able to get the marriage certificate.

This feeling of success kept her awake all night. She dreamt of a handsome young man kneeling on the floor, kissing her fingertips, and proposing with a ring, or of a virtuous gentleman coming home, opening the door, and seeing her, asking him if he wanted to eat, shower, or…

In short, I'm very happy.

Staying up all night didn't cause any real damage to Gui Chuju's spirit. She was still full of energy and walked briskly to school the next day.

Even when she bumped into Himejima Akeno, her arch-rival who defeated her in the student council president election, in the corridor, she didn't feel particularly angry.

Hmph, just useless flab and piled-up fat, not worth bothering with. Even if you're of great use, in the end, won't Li Wei still be mine?

How pitiful, possessing such an enviable... I mean, despicable figure, yet utterly useless. As an adult about to enter the halls of matrimony, Katsura Hinagiku looked at him with eyes full of pity.

That's right, she already felt that there was a thick barrier between her and the other girls in the school, a barrier even stronger than the AT Field.

"Good day, Himejima-senpai," Katsura Hinagiku greeted calmly, the deep, resounding words of a victor.

Good day, Gui-xue-junior.

The long-haired girl raised an eyebrow, seemingly unsure what this junior, who always seemed to be at odds with her, was up to.

Could it be that he finally understood that mature older women have the best figures, and after recognizing this harsh truth, he found his place? It's not impossible.

Since that's the case, I really should act like a senior student.

"Gui-xue-mei seems very happy. Could it be that something good happened?"

"Oh, not at all. It's just that a problem that's been bothering me for years has suddenly been solved." Hehe, I'll invite you to my wedding banquet when Li Wei and I get married.

Two very popular and beautiful girls at school chatted and laughed, creating a harmonious atmosphere. If someone who didn't know them passed by, they might think the two were very close.

Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out on the other side of the corridor, as if something exciting had happened. Many people were rushing over there, afraid that they would miss their turn.

It looks like that place is Li Wei's classroom?

"Tamahime, what happened?"

Katsura Hinagiku reacted quickly and grabbed her junior, Kawazoe Tamaki, who was heading in that direction.

"Hey, Senior Katsura, didn't you know?"

Kawazoe Tamaki, who had originally wanted to go and watch the excitement, was somewhat displeased. When she turned around and saw that it was her senior and vice-captain of the sword club, Katsura Hinagiku, she was even more surprised: "A new transfer student has joined Senior Li Wei's class. She is said to be his fiancée. Everyone has gone to watch the excitement."

"Oh...hmm?" Someone's trying to piss me off?
