I'll kill you after I finish this game!

A sound like an overload resounded in Fujii Ren's brain, and the warm touch on her cheek was like a fuse igniting an explosive, causing her fair cheeks to be completely flushed with a bright red.

Kasumi Ayase also blushed and stared wide-eyed in disbelief; she truly hadn't expected this man to be so unexpectedly bold.

"Well, that's about the level of progress."

Luo Xiu casually put his arm around Fujii Ren's waist, chuckled, and pointed with his other finger at Fujii Ren's flushed face, which was almost bleeding, saying to the dazed Kasumi with a slightly helpless expression:

"It will take some effort to get Ren to take the initiative, since he's quite introverted. Can we go now, Ayase-san?"

“Ah? Ohhh!!”

Slightly regaining her senses, Ayase Kasumi stopped the two of them and let Luo Xiu walk away slowly with his arm around Fujii Ren.

Watching the two figures leave, even though she knew the reason for Fujii Ren's recent strange behavior, Kasumi was still quite concerned about their relationship.

After all, it was the first time she had ever seen her childhood friend so shy.

On the other side, the two could feel the strange gazes behind them. The man looked somewhat helpless, while the woman's heart was beating a little fast.

However, because Kasumi had not yet disappeared behind him, Fujii Ren could not create distance.

However, at least they managed to fool Ayase Kasumi.

"...Senior, aren't you going to change back?"

Having finally shaken off Ayase Kasumi, Fujii Ren finally distanced himself from the 'man' beside him, looking at him with a somewhat helpless expression.

In that case, Xiangchun should obediently go home.

Not only that, she also got a legitimate reason to disappear this weekend without being suspected.

Although it might cause Kasumi some strange misunderstandings, she should actually thank Skadi after achieving her goal.

"Let's leave it at that for now, so we can continue if we run into someone we know."

Luo Xiu did not speak, but a female voice that Fujii Ren knew all too well did come through.

Although she didn't quite understand what the other person was saying, Fujii Ren saw a large number of light particles appear beside Luo Xiu and coalesce into a human shape in front of her.

A humanoid figure familiar to Fujii Ren, a face all too familiar—it was Skadi.

"...A clone?" Fujii Ren asked uncertainly upon seeing this.

"You're half right, or more accurately, half of your body."

Skadi gently brushed a strand of her snow-white hair behind her ear, then patted Luo Xiu's arm beside her and smiled as she said to Fujii Ren:

"Let me reintroduce myself to you. You can think of Luo Xiu as another side of me, or as another personality."

"Aha?"

Upon hearing this, Fujii Ren's mind went blank for a moment, and he didn't quite understand the meaning of Skadi's words.

Even many viewers were stunned.

Half-body, the other side of the senior student, personality...

The girl looked at Skadi and Rosh beside her with a strange expression, and asked uncertainly:

"Senior, you... have another male personality?"

"Yes, I was raised as a boy by my bastard dad when I was little, and with my own reasons, I ended up like this. But don't worry, I've long since stopped caring too much about my gender."

Skadi's face suddenly turned somewhat weary, her eyes filled with a deep sense of reminiscence, and she gave an answer without much pretense.

He was raised as a boy... I see.

Fujii Ren's gaze then turned to another man, a hint of curiosity about Skadi's past.

Luo Xiu noticed Fujii Ren's gaze, a smile of amusement appearing on his face as he looked at the girl and said with a smile:

"What's wrong, getting shy again?"

"Who's shy?!"

The thought of the man in front of her kissing her cheek right in front of Kaori caused Fujii Ren's calmed-down state of mind to immediately become chaotic again.

"Hey, you didn't seem to be acting just now, were you just being yourself?"

At this moment, Skadi, with a mischievous grin, leaned over and pinched Fujii Ren's cheek, saying:

"Although Luo Xiu is my male personality, he is still acting with you in a real male body, so it's normal for a girl to be shy."

Fujii Ren, her face full of exasperation, moved Skadi's mischievous little hands away from her face. Looking at the man and woman in front of her, who were grinning mischievously, she fully understood what it felt like to be teased twice.

Why are the senior students who get along well with her all the ones who like to tease people?

Couldn't we have a friendly, gentle, understanding, and considerate older sister type of reliable senior?

"Thank you for what happened earlier, senior. You should go back now!"

Fujii Ren, who originally wanted to thank them properly, turned around and shooed them away with a helpless tone. She really couldn't stand being teased by both a man and a woman.

Skadi pouted and muttered, "How heartless! I've put in a lot of effort for all the little things around you, you know?"

"If we really became boyfriend and girlfriend, I would definitely suffer a lot because of your dishonest personality," Luo Xiu added, as if to deliver a scathing remark.

The double dose of sarcasm and criticism from her seniors of different genders was giving Fujii Ren a real headache.

She raised her hands and pushed forward by the backs of the two wicked guys, saying in a booming voice:

"Thank you for your concern, seniors. You two should head back now!"

"Heartless junior."

"A woman who won't recognize anyone if you mention panties."

The man and woman, shoved by Fujii Ren, shrugged helplessly, each leaving behind a sarcastic remark before their bodies turned into particles of light and vanished.

Seeing the senior students finally disappear, Fujii Ren covered his throbbing head, his face showing a mixture of helplessness and speechlessness.

This is probably the price of troubling others to do my things. I took a deep breath, looked up at the twilight sky gradually darkening, and gradually relaxed.

Fujii Ren was also sincerely grateful for Skadi's help earlier. Even though Skadi's identity was mysterious, she was indeed someone who had no hostility or malice towards her.

This can be seen from the people Skadi associates with.

For example, friendly and pure girls like Tohka and Yoshino, if someone can have a relationship with such a person, they can't be too bad.

Having resolved Xiangchun's problem, a huge weight was lifted from Fujii Ren's heart. She said to herself, "Thank you, senior."

"You're welcome, Lian Tan~~" x2.

Two unexpected voices came from either side of Fujii Ren. Two spatial rifts opened beside the girl, and Skadi and Rosh poked their heads out with smiles, blinking their crystal blue eyes as they responded to her thanks.

So, these two guys haven't completely left yet.

"..."

Fujii Ren was initially startled, then his expression turned blank. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he forcefully pushed both heads back, roaring loudly:

"You two, get out of here!!!"

Seeing this, the Star Crusaders were in the audience space on the other side.

"I never imagined that such a beautiful lady would have a male personality," Joseph Joestar said, stroking his chin with a hint of amazement.

“Indeed, I thought it was just a clone used for acting.” Kakyoin Noriaki nodded in agreement.

“She said that her father raised her like a boy when she was little.” Muhammad Abuder scratched his head and said with some curiosity, “I’m a little curious myself. She’s such a lovely girl, what kind of sexist would raise her like a boy?”

“I’m quite curious about what kind of world this lady lives in, after all, she claims to be from a parallel world, Earth,” Polnareff said, stroking his chin.

【Pink Fairy】: It's such a waste and too much to raise such a cute girl as a boy. No wonder Skadi's personality is so masculine.

[The Witch of the Gap]: I feel like the focus of the comment above is a bit off, and it's also a little strange...

[Emergency Food]: I have a feeling that Miss Skadi's past must be very complicated.

[Yingmeimei]: I really want to know, she actually has two personalities.

【Little Lucky Grass King】: Overall, Skadi is a very reliable senior to Fujii Ren, and also feels like a mentor and guide.

[Bard]: Really? I feel like she's more like the older sister, and that goddess said she also once resided in Skadi's body.

【Yae no Kami】: The marks of beheading represent a contract, and Skadi does indeed have one on her neck.

........

The camera remained focused on Fujii Ren.

She walked along the still bustling street, finally escaping the harassment from her understanding senior.

Physical fatigue had long since vanished; she planned to stroll around outside before heading home.

Her senior helped her resolve a problem concerning someone important to her, and thinking about this, Fujii Ren truly felt relaxed for the first time in a long time.

That's why—

She failed to notice the difference between herself and the person who was colder than freezing point as she brushed past Fujii Ren under the warm sunset.

“This is unexpected. You’ve had it pretty tough, Zarathustra.”

“————!!”

Upon hearing the slightly shrill voice and hearing the name he didn't acknowledge, Fujii Ren's eyes widened.

This voice is——

He tensed up and immediately turned around, but there was no one in sight.

The audience did see clearly who the figure was, but it was impossible to tell Fujii Ren to the world through the video.

Although she didn't see anyone, Fujii Ren was absolutely certain that the guy had indeed brushed past her just now.

“————!”

Her heart began to race, and her breathing became rapid. The girl's heart, which had been calm until just moments before, was suddenly agitated and became incredibly restless.

It's Saturday evening, and there are people everywhere. It's not yet war night, so there shouldn't be any danger.

So, what is Fujii Ren going to do right now?

That guy was undoubtedly the one who spoke to her through a megaphone back in school.

She remembered his name was Spime the Red Spider.

To be honest, even though they hadn't officially met yet, the girl felt that the other person was probably the kind of person she hated the most.
