Kirisu Mafuyu: "How would we do that?"
Asked right at her sore spot, Kirisu Mafuyu subconsciously posed the question.
Rei Ao: "Put aside your position as a teacher and treat like a man when we talk."
Rei Ao: "As for changing yourself—let help you alter your habits in life, how about that?"
Kirisu Mafuyu: "That…"
She did not want to abandon her teacher identity and see Rei Ao as a man. Yet her mind involuntarily recalled that shape her cheek had bumped into—likely a sign of a truly grown man's maturity. But…he seed far too "mature"!
Kirisu Mafuyu's face burned bright red, her breathing quickening.
Kirisu Mafuyu: "Sigh, are you sure you can make into soone other people like?"
Rei Ao: "Not entirely sure, but there's no harm in trying."
Kirisu Mafuyu: "Fine…fine. Then…then what do I say now?"
…
"Why are you smiling so wickedly?"
Noticing the "sinister" curl of Rei Ao's mouth, Sakurajima Mai got the sense he was up to no good.
"Haha."
"Nothing much. I just rembered sothing interesting."
Becoming Kirisu Mafuyu's "love ntor" was indeed a fascinating prospect. Conquering the fortress-like Mafuyu's heart would need so special thods. It would have to happen little by little.
He put away his phone, and Mai, picking up on his mood, pressed her palms lightly against his shoulders:
"Take a rest."
"Mm, I'll go shower first."
Mai intended to bathe. Just as she walked to the bathroom, she noticed Rei Ao not heading for their usual bedroom but the spare bedroom instead.
"Huh?"
Under her curious gaze, Rei Ao knocked on the spare room door. Very soon, Futaba opened it, and he stepped boldly inside.
Click!
The mont the door closed behind him, Mai finally realized:
"???"
…
"Futaba, were you waiting for like this?"
Rei Ao smiled, taking in Futaba's shapely figure wrapped in just a bath towel—truly "tear open the packet and eat" convenient.
"…Yes."
Futaba bowed her head, embarrassed. Even though she was the "outgoing" personality, she was still mortified right now.
After a few seconds, Rei Ao saw how shy she was and teased:
"Seems like you were really waiting. All done bathing?"
She fidgeted, nodding. "Rei Ao-kun, are…are we officially dating now?"
Because earlier they only had a kiss but no absolute confirmation, Futaba felt uneasy, worried that their relationship was unclear. She softly asked, voice so small that Rei Ao didn't imdiately respond. Futaba grew more apprehensive, but was about to speak again when Rei Ao, a man of action, simply moved in.
He embraced her, giving her a true answer with a kiss.
Futaba froze at the suddenness but soon responded enthusiastically, hugging him firmly, as if trying to fuse into his body. In a matter of monts, they had made their way to the bed. Rei Ao smiled:
"Futaba, do you know the phrase 'tear open the pack and eat imdiately'?"
"N-no…no idea…"
Futaba, flustered all over, trembled in her eyelashes.
"Then let teach you."
"!!!"
…
anwhile at Futaba Rio's own house:
"Hoo…"
Inside a steamy bathroom, Futaba "Rio" (the original) soaking in the tub, letting out a long sigh. She had inspected the whole place; nothing seed out of order. The outward "Futaba" hadn't done anything bizarre to raise family suspicions. She'd gotten her room and identity back, so by all logic she ought to be happy.
Yet sohow…Futaba Rio just could not feel happy.
Emptiness.
Living in that other house only a few days had already let her experience a wealth of unimaginable things, plus the noisy bustle and lively atmosphere she'd never had in her solitary life. Now the silent house…
Oh, it lacked Tohru and the others' chattering. So that was why it felt empty…
"…Will 'I' be living there permanently?"
Futaba Rio found herself imagining. Then she blinked:
"Huh?"
Her brow creased. Lifting an arm above the water, her damp fingers brushed over her lips. A faint tingle, an inexplicable static shock-like flutter jolted her.
"Static electricity?"
That notion had barely ford when—
"Mm!!!"
Suddenly, the tingle was more than on her lips; it spread to her tongue, to inside her mouth! She jolted upright, fighting the urge to stand. But as soon as she tried:
"Wah!!!"
A rush of peculiar sensations shot through her body, so overwhelming that her knees went weak, and she slumped back into the bathtub. She was seeing sothing bizarre happen to her reflection beneath the water.
"Ugh…!"
Futaba Rio pressed her mouth firmly shut, or else she might have moaned at the intense wave of pain and fleeting pleasure. Confusion coursed through her mind—where was this stimulation coming from?
Her cheeks glowed fiercely, her breathing ragged. It felt like so kind of "disease." Was sothing inside her body being triggered? Yet no known illness caused illusions like being touched so intimately from a distance.
…
In the midnight forest, typically so silent, the ground quaked as chaos reigned. Beasts and magical creatures stampeded, braying into the night.
Large swaths of animals and monsters all fleeing at once, as if from sothing. The entire forest lost its usual tranquility.
Up in mid-air, Izawa Shizue peered curiously at the scene below:
"Are these beasts migrating?"
She was uncertain. Could it be they were escaping from so threat?
"So interesting," comnted Velzard, scanning the distant darkness with a keen glint in her eye.
Yet Velgrynd snorted in annoyance:
"What's so interesting about it? Just a demon-lord creature causing an uproar, disturbing my rest—let just wipe it out."
