I'll kill you after I finish this game!

Seeing Mary hug Skadi, she was actually filled with jealousy.

But she felt that it didn't come from her true self; it seemed like an uncontrollable subconscious thought.

Moreover, given Mary's inherent danger, just as the senior student said, we can't blame the gun and the knife, can we?

Just like when she was Kasumi, as the user, Fujii Ren must possess a strong and unwavering will to control this killing intent.

From this day forward, hold hands tightly and manipulate the curse with all your might to eliminate all unfavorable factors.

Fujii Ren made up her mind again and then decided to get up.

It's early morning today, time to take a shower and wake up quickly.

So, how should I spend today...? Ren hasn't decided yet.

"Hmm..."

Suddenly, with his senses heightened, Fujii Ren realized that he wasn't alone in his bed.

And... how should I put it? A soft object touching my hand.

How is this going?

Looking over there, Fujii Ren saw a strange object lying on his own bed.

"Alas..."

The other person looked to be sleeping soundly and comfortably; their snoring was quite adorable.

Fujii Ren rubbed his eyes in confusion, then patted his head.

Ah, am I too tired? After all, she really went to a hellish scene last night, and even had a dream that will cause her psychological trauma. How am I going to keep fighting...?

How could Mary suddenly appear beside her? Was she still dreaming instead of waking up?

After all, aside from being able to communicate with her, he could only see this girl in his subconscious and in his dreams.

"Woo?"

Just when Fujii Ren thought he was still dreaming, Mary, who thought it was a hallucination, slowly opened her eyes.

The two women stared at each other for a few seconds. Mary, like a big child, looked at Fujii Ren's face with a blank expression, then her small mouth opened slightly.

Good morning, Lian.

"......"

Fujii Ren remained silent, his eyes gradually clearing. Was this not a dream?

"The sun is shining so brightly today!"

Like a sleepy, innocent little animal, Mary stretched out her soft, white arm from Fujii Ren's bed and rubbed her eyes and cheeks.

Well, judging from the situation, even though Mary was properly wrapped in a sheet, Fujii Ren could tell that this guy with an absolutely amazing body was sleeping naked next to her.

For men, waking up first thing in the morning to find a hot, naked young woman next to them should be considered a perk, right?

But this was a bit of a shock for Fujii Ren.

Viewers were surprised to see Mary in real life, but those who watched the video attentively remembered Mary's conversation with a mysterious person.

After Fujii Ren reached the [Form] rank, Mary was able to manifest in the world. So that's what it meant.

"...Mary?"

While others understood, Fujii Renko had no idea how Mary could suddenly appear in reality, and even in her room.

“Yes.” Mary blinked her big eyes in response to Fujii Ren’s call.

Why is she here? Could it be that her senior did this? Scratching the back of her head, Fujii Ren looked at Mary with a confused expression and said, "Um, sorry, I don't really know..."

The situation is a bit complicated; we need to figure out at least why Mary is here.

"I want to be with you from now on..."

Mary responded softly, but only with childlike thinking, answering Fujii Ren's question; the wavelengths of their neural signals had not yet been calibrated.

What Fujii Ren wanted to know was not this, but rather the principle behind this situation.

Without any theory or explanation, they just said it was cute, a miracle of love, etc. Fujii Ren's mind wasn't happy enough to accept such absurd fantasies.

Let Mary answer?

"Well?"

His eyes, as pure and innocent as a child's, were always fixed on Fujii Ren.

Fujii Ren sighed inwardly. No matter how much she was asked, she probably wouldn't be able to answer.

If only a reliable senior were here, she would be better at dealing with Mary than a newbie like Mary.

Well, the current situation, in other words, if we have to be so sure, is this the explanation.

She achieved the [formation] of the artifact's manifestation, and thus also [formed] Mary, who resides in the guillotine.

Is that so? If so, she should be able to manifest it at will, right?

Mary looked at Fujii Ren, who was struggling to think about the current situation, her face scrunched up, and then smiled warmly, saying, "Ren, what a strange face."

Ah, her expression looks strange, doesn't it? But Mary seems even stranger!

"...It's a bit cold."

Perhaps because it was a winter morning, Mary mumbled something and curled up a little closer to Lian's blankets.

And without any hesitation, she hugged Fujii Ren's body to keep warm.

Fujii Ren looked speechless and helpless. Mary was holding her like this, naked, with her snow-white and smooth shoulders exposed. If Mary moved even slightly, she could see an even more beautiful view below.

Honestly, this snow-white fairy young lady is dozens of times older than me, yet she acts like a little child.

"So warm."

Mary, clinging to Fujii Ren, looked like a clingy big cat, her face beaming with a cat-like expression of comfort.

However, Fujii Ren felt a bit off. He didn't know why, even though they were both women, he couldn't seem to calm down when he was with Mary.

She's not a lily; her sexual orientation is perfectly normal. Even if she tried to promote her superior values ​​to Mary, Mary probably wouldn't understand.

After all, she is not good at interacting with people.

By the way... how do you usually deal with Mary, senior? Please share your tips!

"Lian's body feels so comfortable."

Mary nestled her soft head against Fujii Ren's belly, making adorable purring sounds.

But the things he said were really misunderstood.

"It's itchy, Mary, don't move around."

Subconsciously, Fujii Ren used the same methods he used on his pets, placing his hand on Mary's hair, which shone brightly in the morning sunlight, and stroked it.

Surprisingly, there was no resistance, but the effect wasn't very good. I hugged her even tighter, and her face showed a comfortable expression like a pet wanting to be petted again after being petted.

Although Fujii Ren still had a playful attitude towards the current situation, another situation around him probably wouldn't allow it.

"Ugh...you're so long-winded, Ren."

Words that sounded like whispered dreams came from the other side of Fujii Ren. Fujii Ren, with cold sweat dripping down his forehead, looked over.

Then I saw Ayase Kasumi wearing pajamas, sleeping with very unladylike posture, and there was someone next to her.

Let's double-check the situation. Mary is on the other side.

Whether it was formed by itself or appeared from its own will, the naked girl who is not about to disappear is now sharing a bed with me.

And on my other side... is Kaori.

It was probably a Sunday when Xiangchun was lying on the bed, complaining as if she were talking in her sleep.

She tried hard to recall last night, but she didn't have the habit of drinking to fall asleep. After finishing a battle, she returned home and saw Xiang Chun, which made her completely relax, and then she lost consciousness.

And this meddlesome idiot actually took care of her all night; he truly is her childhood friend.

Lian was very happy and touched, but she also owed it all to Xiang Chun, otherwise she would be in such an awkward situation.

If the other person woke up and found a completely naked beautiful girl next to them, even if they were a girl themselves, it would be difficult to explain.

After all, Xiangchun didn't know Mary, and it seemed that Xiangchun's biological clock was about to wake her up.

Before that...

[Senior, help!!!!]

[...Mary appeared on your end?]

As if she had expected it, Skadi, on the other end of the telepathic call, paused for a moment after connecting before figuring out the situation on Fujii Ren's side and responded lazily.

[You've probably figured out the situation by now. You did a good job last night. After achieving the formation of a materialized relic, Mary, as the core of the relic, naturally...]

"It will also manifest in the physical world."

As the mental words were spoken, they gradually transformed into spoken words in reality. A spatial rift opened up near the window, and Skadi, dressed in her everyday clothes, stepped out from it on Sunday.

With a slightly helpless expression, she glanced at Mary, who was rubbing against Fujii Ren, and then at Ayase Kasumi, who was fast asleep.

After giving Fujii Ren a look that said "I understand your situation," Skadi used Quantum Reconstruction to create a set of clothes for Mary without saying a word, and then pulled her up amidst her exclamation.

"Ah~ Titi!"

"You suddenly appeared in the world without saying a word. Were you trying to surprise or scare Lian?"

Skadi tapped Mary on the head, speechless. As Mary covered her head and made a tearful face as if she had been bullied, Skadi gave Fujii Ren a look and then took Mary to the apartment living room to discipline her temporarily.

Fujii Ren also let out a heavy sigh of relief, looking as if he had been saved.

She quickly got dressed and immediately started tidying herself up.

Kaori, who was beside her, gradually woke up because of her movements and sounds, and then she saw an acquaintance and a stranger in Fujii Ren's apartment, in addition to Fujii Ren.

"Huh!? Senior, there's another one... Ren, why didn't you wake me up!?"

Upon seeing that there were guests visiting Fujii Ren's room while she was still asleep in bed, Ayase Kasumi felt somewhat rude and immediately started yelling at Fujii Ren.

"You fell asleep in my room, who cares about you, you idiot Kasumi."

With a headache-looking expression, Fujii Ren retorted to the guy in an annoyed tone, and then explained the cause, process, and outcome of the matter to Kasumi.
