There are so many geniuses in crossover anime! What's wrong with adding me?

Crackling!

I don't care! No matter what, you ignored me and went to fawn over someone else! You need to be punished!

"Is there any punishment...what kind?"

Crackling!

[Help me!]

"Huh?" He thought he had misread it, but after confirming that it was indeed those two words, he glanced at Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had no expression on her face.

She slightly opened her mouth, staring with her scarlet eyes, as if waiting for something.

"I see."

Crackling!

[Feeding them all afternoon!]

"Isn't this taking too long?" he wondered.

Crackling!

No bargaining allowed!

"……All right."

Sakurakoji, feeling helpless, could only look around to see if there was anything he could feed.

I never expected her to make such a request. Could it be that she's become addicted to the feeding play from the previous times?

Fortunately, Aoyama Nanami, who served as their maid during their creative process, was very responsible and prepared each of them their favorite underground street goods.

Next to the computer were the cream puffs and mille-feuille cake that Kasumigaoka Utaha had ordered. There should have been something else, but it seems she had already eaten it all.

"Is there no Pocky?" This thought suddenly occurred to him.

That makes sense, though, what dessert shop would put such cheap snacks on the shelves?

The mille-crepe cake was too thick and too big, so he focused his gaze on the cream puffs, picked one up with his fingers, and brought it to her lips.

Although relatively small, a cream puff is about the size of your middle finger and thumb touching, not something you can eat in one bite, unless...

Ugh!

"..." Sakurakoji felt his fingers being held between two soft, wriggling skin, and his eyebrows twitched.

At the edge of the field of vision, there was a rather unseemly scene of Kasumigaoka Utaha swallowing a cream puff into his mouth, which even included part of his fingers.

The speed was too fast and the distance between the cream puffs was too short, so he didn't even have a chance to react.

He loosened his grip on his fingertips, pulling them out with a little force. His damp fingertips felt slightly cool, and before he could even formulate a critical remark—

Crackling!

[More!]

Kasumigaoka Utaha, having quickly swallowed the food, gave the next order.

"..." Sakurakoji's eyelids twitched reflexively a few times, but in the end she didn't say anything. She picked up another one and carefully put it to her lips.

Ugh!

Despite his thorough preparations and fully open field of vision, he still couldn't escape this sudden attack.

There was no way around it; the cream puffs were too small, and she was too fast.

The fact that she didn't bite upwards along his fingers is already an extra favor to be thanked for, right?

He spread his index finger and thumb, looked at the wisps of moisture on them, frowned, puffed out his cheeks slightly, and looked somewhat displeased.

It wasn't because he couldn't stand the filthy saliva attack—well, he is indeed a bit of a germaphobe.

But what he found even more unbearable was that he couldn't tolerate anyone riding on his back and treating him like a little Chu Nan, teasing him in every way! Although that was exactly what he was doing!

But he considers himself to be an S, just like his mother, not an M! How could he accept being teased by others?

"Humph!"

Thinking of this, he became enraged. Without much thought, he merely glanced mockingly at the beautiful woman with long, straight black hair and black stockings, who was feigning composure but whose face was actually slightly flushed. A wicked smile curled at the corner of his mouth. Under her watchful gaze—he brazenly put his finger in his mouth.

"!!!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyelashes visibly widened, and a pinkish aura quickly rose from her neck, spreading to her face, earlobes, and even her forehead...

In the pristine white document, a line of exclamation marks rapidly increases and continues to extend.

【！ ...

Having observed her reaction, Sakurakoji felt relieved. That's right, that's how it should be; how could she be the only one being "punished"?

He took out his finger, which had been covered in his own saliva, smacked his lips, and looked disgusted. Why did it feel even dirtier after he put his own finger back on? He needed to wash it.

"Sorry, there's some cream on it. Let me clean it up." He offered a reasonable explanation for his earlier behavior, adding, "The cream at this shop is quite delicious, very sweet and fragrant, and it looks like a freshly baked, high-quality product."

"You're right, aren't you, Shi-yu-senpai?"

"..." Kasumigaoka Utaha's skin was already blood red, and her trembling eyelashes betrayed her inner turmoil.

Sakurakoji smugly snorted, "Little brat, trying to play tricks on me?"

He didn't learn to play with toys as a child, but instead learned to play pranks on people. He tried to gain an advantage from people using such vulgar tricks.

"Mature woman" indeed! Even a mature woman won't do! Besides, she's just a fake mature woman who uses dirty jokes to disguise her true self. He easily won her over!

The exclamation marks on the computer screen had already reached the second page. He placed his hands on her soft hands and moved them away from the keys. Then he selected the entire document (CTRL+A) and clicked delete.

She picked up another cream puff, gave it a quick kiss on the corner of her mouth, and said with a slight smile, "Shall we continue?"

"..." Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at him, her eyes pleading, surrendering and admitting defeat.

Admit defeat? Admitting defeat won't work! The game has begun, and it's time to finish it!

Ignoring Sakurakoji's talent, he forcefully pried open her sexy pink lips and teeth, which felt very comfortable to the touch, and shoved the thing inside.

……

In the end, Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't be as assertive as her words suggested, nor could she get Sakurakoji Saishin to spend an afternoon with her.

Because—she simply couldn't eat anymore.

Ten minutes into the game, after she typed out half a page of pleas for mercy and apologies on her computer, Sakurakoji Sai finally took pity on her and let her off this time.

"If you do this again next time, you know what will happen, right?" He gave him a look.

!!!

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded vigorously.

"very good."

……

Volume 1: The Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 135 - Just Two Ordinary Friends

[I never expected that you, Caihua, would be interested in 3D culture. I thought you'd never be in a relationship.]

Perhaps because she felt ashamed of her crushing defeat in this offensive and defensive battle, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not choose to speak even after the game ended, continuing to use this method of communication.

"What does this mean?" Sakurakoji, who had just returned from washing his hands in the bathroom, was puzzled when he saw the text.

As he gazed at her stunning profile, still flushed, a gentle warmth welled up in his heart, and the tingling, warm sensation seemed to linger on his fingers.

[Didn't you say you were going to give Sawamura-kun and the other actresses a picture of the female lead? This means you already have a real-life actress in mind, right?]

Kasumigaoka Utaha met his gaze with a look that was a mixture of resentment, awkwardness, and unspoken emotions, expressing her complex girlish feelings.

"Ah... that." He remembered what he had said to Eriri earlier.

So she had been eavesdropping all along. He gave her a teasing look, drawing her attention away and making her feel embarrassed again.

Could it be that her anger just now wasn't solely due to his failure to greet her first? This thought startled Sakurakoji Saiki, who dared not delve deeper into the matter.

If I think about it any further, I might have to turn her description of the woodcutter's knife into reality.

"What kind of image do I have in your heart, Shiyu-senpai? Who told you I'm not interested in 3D? What do you take me for? A hardcore otaku who never goes out?" He was slightly speechless.

Isn't that right? If you're someone who actively writes light novels, no one would believe you're not an otaku, right?

Kasumigaoka Utaha turned her head back to examine him. Actually, there was another reason she didn't say: didn't she think it was a bit too difficult for someone like him to find a three-dimensional opposite sex who was his equal?

"Well... okay, you're right."

So, what kind of people are those two female protagonists?

"It's nothing, just two 'ordinary' friends. They happen to go to the same school, so I thought it would be a good fit as material."

[Sawamura and I went to the same school, but I've never seen you get inspiration from us. It seems those two ladies are more special to you.]

These words, no matter how you look at them, reveal a certain emotion. It seems that words are indeed magical, capable of expressing certain feelings. Sakurakoji Saiki agrees with this view.

"They both happen to like playing music. One is very musically talented, and the other is a great singer, so I thought choosing them would make the post-production dubbing much easier." He made it up off the cuff, but it was passable.

Just like in the script?

"Just like in the script!" Sakurakoji affirmed.

[Could one of them really have won the national piano competition in her first year? Is she the daughter of a pianist?] Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes were filled with disbelief.

"You might find it hard to believe, but it's true." He crossed his arms and shook his head slightly, understanding her feelings.

[I see…]

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes gradually deepened. She never expected that these two heroines, and even the male protagonist, would actually have real-life counterparts! And they were all so outrageous!

She gave him a meaningful look. What kind of people do you know?

I'm a little curious.

"If there's a chance in the future, I'll introduce you to him."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded silently and continued typing away on her keyboard.

[Speaking of which, in the final chapter of this game, three more female protagonists are supposed to be added, right? The casting...]

"I haven't decided yet. We'll see how it goes after it's released and sells well!" Sakurakoji interrupted. "Ah, I should probably go check on how things are going on their end. Mashiro seems to be having a hard time."

"Senior Shiyu, please excuse me for a moment."

After saying that, he left somewhat awkwardly and hurriedly, heading towards Eriri and the others.

He understood what Kasumigaoka Utaha wanted to say, but he was also having a bit of a headache about the issue and hadn't yet figured out what to do.

Touma Kazusa and Ogiso Setsuna are both characters from the original work, so there's no problem with them. However, he doesn't recognize any of the three heroines who appear in the final chapter.

If you calculate the time, they should be in junior high, high school, and university now, right?

I made this choice on a whim without considering the consequences. Now I realize they haven't even found all the female leads yet. What's the point of having this?

He now has three choices before him:

1. Go find the three female protagonists, persuade them, and get them to join;

2. Three new characters will be created, and the original plot will be changed, which may affect the original script;

3. Retain the three character settings, but change the voice actors.

No matter which one you choose, it seems like it's all quite troublesome, Sakurakoji Saito thought, feeling mentally exhausted.

But clearly no one can understand his thought process, and this may even lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.

Staring at his retreating figure, Kasumigaoka Utaha puffed out her smooth, delicate lips, as white as a peeled peach, and slowly typed a few words on the computer: 【Coward!】

……

The afternoon is neither long nor short.

If you only use it for speaking, it seems you can say quite a lot; but if you use it for reading, studying, painting, or practicing music, it can't do much.

This is even more true if the two are done together.
