Tokyo: Becoming the Perfect Male God Starting with a Rented Boyfriend.

"This is the blue-bodied tubenose eel, also known as the five-colored eel. It is male when it is young and becomes female when it becomes an adult, and reproduces in the last moments of its life."

"That's really amazing."

"Yes. It must be very difficult for nature to evolve such a mechanism."

"I was talking about Miyazawa-kun." Naomi smiled sweetly, "It feels like Miyazawa-kun knows everything, he's handsome, gentle, and knowledgeable, a perfect boyfriend!"

"……Thanks?"

Miyazawa Itsuki could feel countless gazes sweeping over him.

That was the twisted resentment emanating from men who envied him.

My girlfriend is not only so beautiful, but she's also so good at providing emotional support.

Even though the species information sign was right nearby, she still chose to ask her boyfriend, and he knew how to respond.

Where can you find such a cute girl!

Miyazawa Itsuki had similar feelings.

Naomi's emotional value is too high, and her physical appearance is excessively outstanding.

Sometimes he even gets confused about who is renting from whom.

If it weren't Miyazawa Itsuki standing here, but some other colleague, they would definitely have given Naomi a "free meal."

This child has that kind of charm.

Bathed in the envious gazes of others, the two continued to explore the aquarium.

Naomi would occasionally ask questions, and would happily call out to him when she encountered familiar fish.

However, Miyazawa Itsuki noticed a detail: Naomi asked about the most popular varieties in the museum.

Are you interested because of the vibrant colors?

However, Naomi also took a look at some less popular varieties.

However, without asking any questions, he simply and coincidentally "saw" the notice board.

Miyazawa guessed that she might be concerned about her own knowledge base.

Asking your boyfriend about things he's not familiar with in public might embarrass him and break your image of being "knowledgeable."

Naomi Asahina likely held this mindset.

What a good child.

Unfortunately, he really wanted to say that Naomi was overthinking it.

Miyazawa Itsuki could indeed claim to have a very solid grasp of the knowledge about fish in aquariums around Tokyo.

His Level 2 shorthand skill allowed him to memorize the species information of major venues in Tokyo.

Whether it's rare or popular, Miyazawa Itsuki can talk about it fluently.

As a professional rental boyfriend, Miyazawa Itsuki considers memorizing this information a necessary part of his job.

As a former top scorer in a province known for its intense college entrance examinations, Miyazawa Itsuki believes in only one truth: if you don't work hard, you will be eliminated.

Even without the convenient skills purchased from the system, he planned to memorize this information, though it would be a bit slower.

Time flies.

Before they knew it, the two had reached the end of the aquarium and returned to where they started.

Staff members were operating a stall selling cultural and creative products at the exit of the venue.

They are all cute figurines, perhaps because they consider that most of the visitors are families, so they mainly sell toys for children.

While some girls might like it, Naomi would probably prefer more mature and fashionable items.

Miyazawa Itsuki was considering whether or not to buy her something.

Renting a boyfriend allows you to give gifts to your client within certain limits; this is also a marketing tactic.

He has a habit of giving out inexpensive gifts at the end of dates, gifts that suit the client's taste.

The value doesn't matter, since guests who can afford to rent Miyazawa Tree are not troubled by money.

But the sentiment is important; it makes guests feel that they are not just buying emotions with money, but are truly cherished.

Miyazawa Itsuki observed Naomi for a moment.

As he expected, the other party seemed uninterested in these obviously childish dolls, merely glancing at them briefly.

He fell into thought.

Things that can appeal to fashionable young women probably won't stay within the price range set by the agency.

Perhaps a more practical gift would be better.

Just as Miyazawa Itsuki was sifting through his thoughts, Naomi's voice interrupted him.

"Hey, it's four o'clock in the afternoon, there's still an hour left."

Naomi Asahina moved closer and looked up at him.

"Is Miyazawa-kun hungry?"

"I'm feeling fine, how about Naomi?"

"Hmm~ It is indeed a bit too early now." Naomi thought seriously for a moment, then suddenly looked at him, her eyes lighting up:

"Right, let Miyazawa-kun decide. Please take me to a place that Miyazawa-kun would be interested in."

"A place that interests me?" Miyazawa Itsuki was somewhat surprised.

"Mmm! So far on our date, Miyazawa-kun has been the one going along with me and trying to make me happy, but a date where only I'm happy isn't complete, so I want Miyazawa-kun to be happy too."

"...I'm already very happy."

"Please take me there."

Naomi stared intently at him with a serious look.

“Okay,” Miyazawa Itsuki said, “Let me think about it.”

Customers come first. Since the other party wants Miyazawa Itsuki to take the lead, he has no reason to refuse any longer.

He was already quite used to planning dates.

However, considering that there was only one hour left in the date, it was the final stage, and using a conventional approach seemed inappropriate.

Naomi's request was "to go to places that Miyazawa Itsuki is interested in".

If it's a girlfriend, making such a request is perfectly normal. Understanding your partner's preferences is an essential part of a healthy relationship.

but……

"Places that would interest me..."

Miyazawa Itsuki remained silent for a moment.

On days when he doesn't work, he either goes to the hospital to stay by Shiori's side.

They either rest or study in their rented rooms.

But he could never bring himself to say that he was going to the hospital.

Therefore, we need some other options.

Ideally, it should be a choice that makes Naomi happy as well.

Yes, the timing is right.

—【The Eye of the Casanova】, activated.

He locked eyes with Naomi and activated his special ability.

Almost instantly, a strange feeling welled up inside me.

The eyes convey messages that cannot be described in words; the complex information is processed by the brain and ultimately forms a very simple answer.

"—Huh?"

Is this really it?

Miyazawa Itsuki looked surprised.

"What's wrong, Miyazawa-kun?" Naomi asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing," Miyazawa Itsuki hesitated for a moment, "I've already decided where to go next. Could Naomi come with me?"

“Of course!” Naomi flashed a flawless smile. “I’m Miyazawa-kun’s girlfriend. So, where does Miyazawa-kun want to go?”

Miyazawa Itsuki looked a little embarrassed: "Um... I'd like to go there and take a look."

Miyazawa Itsuki pointed to one of the floors below the mall.

From their vantage point, looking down from above, they saw a dazzling array of adorable decorations, predominantly purple, pink, and gold. Standees of cartoon girls in gorgeous princess dresses lined the aisle.

It's a pop-up store for a currently popular children's animation.

The theme is magical girls.

"..."

Under Naomi's incredulous gaze, Miyazawa Itsuki struggled to maintain his composure.

"...Miyazawa-kun, you...you also like watching this kind of thing, hehehe...No, sorry, I wasn't mocking you...I see..."

On the contrary, Naomi's facial expression control showed cracks.

Chapter 6 I am doing something insatiable

Magical girl.

This is the information that Miyazawa Itsuki obtained from Asahina Omi using the "Love Saint's Eye".

This fashionable young woman, who's practically living a high-end life, truly loves these things.

To be honest, it was quite unexpected for Miyazawa Itsuki.

It's not that there's anything wrong with liking magical girl anime aimed at children.

In Miyazawa Itsuki's previous life, adults' enthusiasm for children's anime was not something to be overly ashamed of.

Moreover, Asahina Omi is a girl, and is herself the original audience for this type of work.

However, just as people from different backgrounds may have completely different hobbies.

Would a trendy, outgoing, and socially active person like the introverted, homebody culture?

Miyazawa Itsuki spent the afternoon with Naomi, and all she experienced was her very extroverted interest.

It has absolutely nothing to do with subcultures.

The idea of ​​a hot girl and a nerdy guy sharing similar interests is something that only happens in light novels.

Today, he encountered a real-life example.

Naomi, who had always been in control, showed signs of wavering for the first time after hearing his idea.

This can already serve as proof of the effectiveness of the "Love Saint's Eye".

However, Naomi adjusted quickly.

She quickly returned to her normal self.

"...Hehe, Miyazawa-kun's hobby is quite cute. Do you usually watch anime?"

Suddenly she started using honorifics; Naomi must still be in a state of confusion.

Miyazawa Itsuki tried to speak in a lighthearted tone.

"Yes, after all, I live in Japan, it would be a lie to say I don't have any contact with it. I watched a lot of anime when I was a kid."

He briefly listed a few well-known works and added:

"I browsed the social media during my recent break and found that this animation seems to be very popular, so I became interested. I didn't have much exposure to it when I was a child because of my gender, but now I find it quite interesting."

“Yes… I also have friends who really like these…” Naomi looked a little guilty.

"Friend... what are Naomi's own thoughts?" Miyazawa Itsuki suddenly felt like teasing her and said with feigned regret:
