In practice, I can issue tasks to my master.

Nangong Cheng could feel that Karuizawa Hui's arms around his back were not as tight, and fearing that she might be imagining strange things, he immediately gave his final explanation.

"Because I think you definitely won't accept my idea of ​​dating several girlfriends at the same time, so rather than breaking up in the end, I might as well reject you from the beginning."

ha?

Karuizawa Kei paused for a moment.

What does it mean to want to date several girlfriends at the same time?

Although she knew that you, Nangong Cheng, were seeing many girls, she never thought that you really wanted to build a harem.

Suddenly, she didn't know whether she should feel sad, angry, or... secretly pleased?

Because at least she has a chance.

After all, Nangong Cheng didn't reject her because he had no feelings for her, but because he had this unconventional idea of ​​dating multiple women at the same time.

And she was one of them.

"Nangong Jun, why would you say such malicious things... wanting to date a lot of girls at the same time... you must have said that on purpose, right?"

"And putting aside whether you can even do it, can your body support you doing it?"

As for Japan, well, those who know, know.

It might be hard to say during elementary school, but by the time students enter junior high school, most students have already gained sufficient understanding of gender.

Many of them have also completed actual combat exercises.

However, Karuizawa Kei is not in this category. After all, given her situation during middle school... well, no boy dared to approach her, for fear of getting into trouble.

So, to be fair, she'd heard about men's abilities in this area, and the desire to simultaneously date and satisfy multiple women...

Even with exceptional talent, one's physical limitations mean it's easy to overwork oneself and even kill oneself.

"Hmm... Even if Karuizawa and I guarantee that it's easy, you'll still doubt its authenticity if you don't experience it for yourself."

Seeing that Karuizawa Kei was being drawn into his rhythm, Nangong Cheng couldn't help but curl a sly smile at the corner of his mouth.

"So, Karuizawa-san, would you like to try it out? I'm quite confident in this area, and I assure you this isn't a lie I told just to reject you."

"Huh?! I...I...I...I..."

Karuizawa Kei was so frightened that she jumped out of Nangong Cheng's arms and bumped into the light switch on the wall.

Light dispelled the darkness.

"Ah!!!! Don't look!!!"

After screaming in response, Karuizawa immediately crouched down, covering her head in defense.

Nangong Cheng chuckled and shook his head.

He hesitated for a moment, then took off his own coat and draped it over Karuizawa Megumi, before picking up the girl's school uniform that had fallen to the floor and shaking it.

"Karuizawa-kun, I never expected you to be so bold when the lights are off, but so innocent when the lights are on."

"You really make me happy."

"Waaah..."

Karuizawa Kei's face was practically buried in her cushioning pad, but unfortunately, she didn't have the assets.

However, she felt Nangong Cheng drape his school uniform over her shoulders. The man's body temperature and scent mingled in the air, transmitting from the tip of her nose to her cerebral cortex...

Oh no, things are going to get weird...

"Nangong classmate...you're bullying me!"

A girl's soft, effeminate condemnation only sounds like coquetry and an aphrodisiac to arouse a man's interest.

Given the current atmosphere, if Nangong Cheng said he had no ideas, he would have to berate himself for being like Wei Nan, since he had been orchestrating this for so many days just for this.

But the atmosphere isn't quite right right now.

If he had agreed immediately, he could have easily taken advantage of the situation and hit home run, but after he mentioned wanting to have a harem, that won't work.

However, he was certainly not satisfied with returning empty-handed, so a bold idea was born.

"Karuizawa-kun, the floor is cold. Let me help you up first."

"And I have to remind you, you're still in a state of exposure, even more so than if you were standing right in front of me."

Karuizawa Kei hesitated for a moment, then carefully stood up again with the support of Nangong Cheng.

She crossed her arms to cover herself, and the blush and shy look in her eyes were quite tempting.

Nangong Cheng chose to exchange without hesitation.

[Mosquito and Fly Camera: A new type of monitoring device born from the combination of optimized biological structure of mosquitoes and flies and modern technology. It is invisible to the naked eye and extremely concealed, and can share the five senses of the bound user. Redemption points required: 500]

No risk, just install.

"Nan, Nangong classmate..."

"Don't worry, Karuizawa-san. Even though I can't be your boyfriend, that doesn't stop me from wanting to protect you."

Nangong Cheng handed the girl's school uniform to Karuizawa Kei, and then kissed the girl's forehead, just like he had done with Ichinose Honami that time.

He broke free in one swift motion and turned the doorknob.

"It's getting late, you should get some rest."

"boom--"

Karuizawa Kei stared blankly at the front door for a while, then slowly walked back to her bedroom.

"thump."

She collapsed onto the soft bed.

She carelessly tossed her own school uniform onto the floor again, then grabbed the school uniform that belonged to Nangong Cheng and draped it over herself.

"Whoosh~~~"

After taking a deep breath, my body felt even stranger.

Karuizawa Kei savored the scent of Nangong Cheng, then reached out and touched her forehead where she had been kissed. She then subconsciously recalled the video Nangong Cheng had sent her last night.

And what she did later.

“Nangong Jun… Cheng Jun…”

"How cunning..."

"What do you mean you want to date several girlfriends at the same time... and you even said you want me to experience it for myself..."

"Aa ...

The girl rolled around on the bed like a pupa, talking to herself as if she were flirting with her boyfriend.

Until finally, I was exhausted.

Or perhaps she remembered what she needed to do.

The moment the thought arose, that familiar panel appeared before her eyes.

[Character: Megumi Karuizawa]

[Age: Female, High School]

【Height: 154cm】

【Measurements: B:76(C) W:54 H:77】

[A Community of Shared Future: Nangong Cheng]

Points held: 1300

Items redeemed: 10 points

[Abilities redeemed: None]

Karuizawa Kei subconsciously touched the scar on the side of her lower abdomen again, her gaze falling on the [Flawless Skin Cream].

There's nothing to hesitate about.

Wasn't this what she wanted in the first place?

but--

"Didn't you ever think about protecting yourself?"

Do you still have that kind of courage?

Nangong Cheng's words suddenly echoed in my mind.

Her gaze slowly drifted to the [Gene Enhancement Potion], and then, gritting her teeth, she chose to redeem it.

Swish.

A test tube filled with a pale blue liquid appeared in her hand.

Without hesitation, I drank it all in one gulp.

A warm current flowed through her stomach, followed by a surge of power that seemed to come from within.

"Oh!"

It wasn't that she lost control of her strength, but rather that she was a little excited, and Karuizawa Kei suddenly crushed the test tube in her hand.

The shard pierced his palm, and blood flowed out.

But Karuizawa Megumi didn't feel any pain at all, at least not as much as the pain she had suffered before.

"This is it... This is what I need... If only I had this back then..." Karuizawa Megumi murmured to herself, her expression dazed.

After regaining her composure, she first cleaned up the fragments and debris, then gradually shifted her gaze to [Beginner Combat].

Unfortunately, she was short of money at the moment and couldn't exchange any more.

Fortunately, she currently has a daily quest, and she should be able to collect enough points to redeem the [Flawless Skin Cream] and [Beginner Fighting] before the end of the month.

Overwhelmed with emotion, she had trouble sleeping.

Suddenly, she remembered the short video Nangong Cheng had sent her that day and the short essay she had written afterward.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Nangong..."

"This is the last time..."

-----------------

at the same time.

Kikyo Kushida has also returned to her dormitory and is chatting with her group on her phone as usual.

However, she was a little confused.

Especially after seeing the girls in the small group chatting about Nangong Cheng in bits and pieces.

"Speaking of which, Karuizawa-san's behavior tonight could be considered a clear indication that she has feelings for Nangong-san, right?"

"Who says otherwise? Her eyes were practically glued to Nangong. During the chorus, I thought she was practically rubbing her whole body against him."

"But I think it's pretty normal. After all, Nangong is so outstanding and handsome that he could easily be a top male host in Ginza. Plus, his voice is very nice. I feel like I would definitely get wet if he stared at me."

"I'm stuck in this barbershop... But to be honest, if I could have Nangong as my boyfriend, I'd be willing to graduate from Class A."

"Speaking of which, I've also noticed that Nangong hardly interacts with any boys, but he interacts with a lot of girls."

"Within our own class alone, there's already Sakura, Horikita, Karuizawa, and Kikyo-chan. Oh, right, there's also my fellow townsman, Xiaomei."

"There's also Ichinose in Class B, and Sakayanagi from Class A also took the initiative to approach Minamiya in the cafeteria before... Wow, the competition is fierce."

"Actually, it's alright. Sakura is a nobody and shouldn't be very competitive. Sakayanagi is so weak that she definitely can't withstand Nangong's torment. Horikita is in a better situation, but she's still a boring ice queen. Among the remaining people, Ichinose is far away in Class B and doesn't have a geographical advantage. So in the end, it's still an internal competition among us."

"Karuizawa only relies on her horse-forked insect skills. If we're talking about competitiveness, we definitely have to look to our Kikyo-chan. Even Xiaomei has the advantage of being from the same hometown!"

The group chat was quite lively.

After all, girls are always very keen on gossip.

Especially those love gossip.

Kikyo Kushida felt inexplicably complicated as she watched one of the most brilliant members of her small group use the process of elimination to list her out.

“We are accomplices.”
