In a crossover anime, the only way to become stronger is by marrying a wife.

I cooked the meal at home, served it on a plate, and even made an extra portion, which I sealed in a plastic lunchbox.

He went out again and then went to his neighbor's door.

The sounds of video game combat came from upstairs, along with a sweet, childlike voice excitedly shouting.

"I am a demon god! I am a demon god!"

Tsukikawa Shuu knocked on the door.

"what!"

The girl upstairs clearly hadn't expected anyone to come over at that moment, and the sound of the video game abruptly stopped.

After a moment, the door opened a crack, revealing a head of pinkish-white hair and a cowlick, wearing a loose white shirt, with two pale red eyes watching Tsukikawa Shu warily outside the door.

"Has Mipoli not returned yet?" Tsukikawa Shu smiled.

This girl's name is Mahiro Oyama, and she has a younger sister named Minori Oyama.

Hmm... if I'm still considered a younger sister now.

According to the plot of the anime "Keep Your Way, My Brother", Mahiro Oyama has already been betrayed by his own younger sister.

She has no sportsmanship; she tries to cheat and ambush people! This is her classmate in her early twenties.

Then, Mahiro Oyama transformed into a soft-voiced, cuddly loli.

Now it seems that Minami Oyama is more like her older sister.

Tsukikawa Shuu wants to advise today's young people to behave themselves and stop fighting amongst themselves all the time!

Mahiro Oyama is a serious shut-in, whose only companions are various sugary drinks and games, making him a true homebody.

If Ichiri Goto were to meet, the two of them might actually get along well, since they're both hardcore otaku.

However, Goto Ichiri can also play the guitar and has a high popularity online, allowing her to earn income through advertising, while Shushin Mahiro is just a shut-in.

Mahiro Oyama timidly shook his head, clearly still somewhat afraid of Hiiragi Tsukikawa.

If Tsukikawa Shuu weren't her neighbor, Oyama Mahiro would never have opened that door; her social anxiety was extreme.

Minami Oyama is a very intelligent girl. She is now a college student who skipped a grade and is even older than Mahiro Oyama.

Minori Oyama is currently working on drug research, and this is the time she is going back to the lab to report on the progress, leaving Mahiro Oyama alone at home.

"Have you eaten?" Tsukikawa Shu asked.

“No…” Mahiro Oyama paused, then said in a soft voice, “…we’re having instant noodles tonight.”

"I don't believe it. How can you eat instant noodles every day?"

Tsukikawa Shuu picked up the lunchbox and delivered it to Oyama Mahiro, who was standing behind the door.

"I cooked an extra meal."

"Woo..."

Mahiro Oyama instinctively shrank back, wanting to refuse, but Tsukikawa Shu's cooking was quite good, and she twitched her nose, somewhat hesitant.

Tsukikawa Shu shoved the lunchbox directly into the other person's arms.

“I’ll make extra these next few days, so I’ll make one for you too,” Tsukikawa Shuu said.

"Thank you... thank you..."

Mahiro Oyama glanced at Hiiragi Tsukikawa, then spoke timidly.

"That's all, I'll be going now." Tsukikawa Shu smiled, left his neighbor's house, and returned to his own.

Makoto Oyama watched Tsukikawa Hiiragi walk back into the house before slowly closing the door.

A moment later, the sound of video games came from upstairs from the neighbor's apartment again.

"I'll introduce Goto Ichiri to her in a few days. We should have a lot in common. Otherwise, staying at home all day isn't a good thing."

Tsukikawa Shu looked at the light coming from the room opposite and shook her head helplessly.

Chapter 13 Nobody believed that Pochi-chan had a boyfriend

Three days have passed since Goto Ichiri returned to his original world, and he has visited many more places.

Every time school ended, Tsukikawa Shu would come to find her on time and then take her around to play, so she became familiar with many places.

On this day, Goto Ichiri walked towards school as usual, skipping along, her pink ahoge (cowlick) bobbing up and down.

Having a boyfriend has clearly improved Goto Ichiri's mood, and even changed her perspective on the world.

I still hope the world doesn't end.

"Poch-chan!!!"

Just then, a voice from behind called out to Goto Ichiri.

A girl with a yellow side ponytail was running towards her.

“Nijika?” Goto Ichiri asked, somewhat surprised.

Nijika Ijichi is a very lively girl who is a member of the End Band and one of Ichiri Goto's few friends.

The two people went to different schools and would rarely run into each other on their way to school.

"You haven't come to training these past few days, I was worried something might have happened to you." Ichiji Nijika put her hands on her hips and pouted a little angrily.

“I’ve already sent a message on Line,” Goto Ichiri said.

“Boqi-chan’s emotions are very unstable. I’m so afraid something will happen to you. I’ve been worried all night,” said Nijika Ichichi.

"Hehehe, it's nothing."

Goto Ichiri was a little embarrassed, but also a little smug, as he scratched the back of his head, still wearing that silly smile.

"Something's definitely wrong with Pochi-chan!"

Ichika crossed her arms and said unhappily, then pointed at Goto Ichiri's hair, "Your hair was combed properly today! Your bangs were definitely trimmed too!"

"And another thing, you're not wearing your gym clothes today, you're wearing your school uniform instead! And you even have a new bow in your hair!"

"Hehe, you figured it out."

Goto Ichiri touched her hair and the white bow on it shyly, then laughed again.

Goto Ichiri had gone out with Tsukikawa Shuu several times, and every time she dressed so unfashionably that she was embarrassed. So she decided to change her image, bought a white bow online, and took off her sportswear and put on a school uniform, trying her best to look like a youthful and beautiful high school student.

I originally wanted to put on some light makeup, but after trying it with my mother's equipment, I realized I had absolutely no experience with this kind of thing, so I had to give up.

Although the changes are minor, they represent a significant improvement for someone with an extreme social anxiety who has always kept the same decorations and clothing.

"Tell me, what good thing happened?"

"Ichi Nijika asked impatiently."

She had taken a special detour to come here today, and seeing Goto Ichiri's secretive expression only fueled her desire.

It was already a rare thing for little Boqi, who had always stayed quietly in the corner cardboard box, to have good things happen to him.

"Nothing much, I just got a boyfriend."

Although Goto Ichiri tried hard to hide her eagerness to show off, her silly smile betrayed her.

"And, he was the one who confessed his feelings to me."

"I can't always wear sportswear in front of my boyfriend. JK uniforms are more attractive... I need to dress up nicely, and my hair definitely needs to be styled properly."

However, Ichi Nijika didn't believe it at all, staring at Goto Ichiri's eyes, trying to see something fishy in her gaze.

"—Is that so?"

"Why are you looking at me like that? It's true!" Goto Ichiri shrank back and emphasized.

“How could Pochi-chan possibly have a boyfriend?” Nijika Ijichi said.

I don't even have one yet.

“It’s true,” Goto Ichiri said.

“Impossible, impossible.” Ichiji Nijika shook her head.

"It's true!" Goto Ichiri exclaimed anxiously.

"If he's your boyfriend, then tell me what kissing feels like." Ichiji Nijika put her hands on her hips, looking at him with a scrutinizing expression.

"Uh...this..."

Goto Ichiri couldn't answer for a moment.

"We haven't kissed yet... but he has kissed my cheek!"
