Tokyo: Becoming the Perfect Male God Starting with a Rented Boyfriend

He planned to buy some comics for Miyazawa Shiori, who was hospitalized, to help her pass the time.

As a child, Shiori had a strong interest in magical girls, and Itsuki Miyazawa watched many of their works with her. He also played games with her, pretending to be monsters and magical girls.

Although I've grown older, those memories have never faded.

If this can bring back some of the happiness from back then and make Shiori smile a little more, then Miyazawa Itsuki will feel it's all worth it.

"How old is Miyazawa-kun's younger sister?"

"This year, they're probably in their second year of junior high school."

However, due to her physical condition, Shiori cannot enjoy school life like a typical junior high school student.

"It's about the same age as my younger sister... Can I recommend some?"

Miyazawa Itsuki was somewhat surprised.

"Of course, if Naomi is willing. After all, I don't really know much about these things."

Asahina blushed and tried to hide her embarrassment: "I... my younger sister really likes collecting these things, and since we're about the same age, I thought maybe she could be a reference. Of course, I'm not interested in these things at all."

"I know," Miyazawa Itsuki smiled. "Then I'll leave it to Naomi."

Naomi Asahina began to enthusiastically select manga.

Miyazawa Itsuki stood behind her, observing silently.

Is it fair to say that this is something I truly love?

When Asahina Naomi was choosing magical girl manga, the overflowing joy she felt was noticeably different from before.

More vibrant, more captivating.

It felt like I had finally met the real Naomi.

"This, this, and this..." Asahina stacked up the selected manga. "These should be enough to keep me entertained for a month..."

Miyazawa Itsuki took the manga; it was quite heavy.

A rough count reveals about six or seven comic books.

"Am I being too picky...?" Asahina said cautiously.

"How could that be? I should thank Naomi. Without your help, I wouldn't have been able to select these works."

"Hehe...no, not really."

The two continued browsing the store, but didn't find anything else they wanted to buy, so Miyazawa Itsuki decided to go to the front desk to pay.

The teller handed him the receipt with both hands and said, "Sir, your purchase gives you one chance to win a lucky prize. Would you like to try?"

Is there a free lucky draw?

Miyazawa Itsuki said with great interest, "Okay."

The clerk brought over a container and gestured for him to put his hand in it.

Naomi Asahina cheered him on excitedly.

Miyazawa Itsuki felt it; it was icy cold to the touch and contained countless glass marbles.

He casually picked one out.

The beads are golden.

The clerk was also surprised: "Congratulations, sir, you've won the first prize!"

"Amazing!" Naomi clapped her hands excitedly. "Miyazawa-kun, it's first prize!"

"My luck has improved because Naomi is with me," Miyazawa Itsuki said happily. "May I ask about the first prize?"

Facing the incredibly handsome customer, the sales clerk was full of enthusiasm: "Of course, no problem. The first prize is a limited edition physical transformation item from Pretty Cure. You can choose one of the three."

She took down the three prop gift boxes from the display stand and arranged them on the counter.

"?!"

Naomi Asahina shuddered.

No, how could it be this?

Didn't they say that they've been sold for millions of yen and there's no market for them?

Even after trying to buy it through many channels and offering high prices, she still came up empty-handed.

—I really want it.

However, this was the one that Miyazawa-kun drew.

If I buy something now and get a chance to win a prize, will I be able to win?

Asahina slowly shifted her gaze to the lottery probability display.

The odds of winning the third prize are one in ten.

The probability of winning the second prize is one percent.

The odds of winning the first prize are one in a thousand.

Naomi Asahina was in despair.

Her luck with gacha pulls has always been disastrous. She once got a severe scolding from her mother for spending too much money on a magical girl gacha game at once.

"If I had to choose one of the three," Miyazawa Itsuki pondered for a moment, "then I'll choose this one."

He placed his hand on a purple wand.

"Sir, you have excellent taste," the clerk said with a smile. "This is the most popular prize, and you've chosen the last one."

Naomi Asahina is heartbroken.

Miyazawa Itsuki took the packed bag, glancing at the dejected Naomi out of the corner of his eye.

"Could Naomi please accept this later?"

The bag containing the transformation toy gift box was separate, and he handed it to Asahina.

"what?"

Naomi Asahina looked utterly shocked: "Give it to me?"

"Yes," Miyazawa Itsuki said casually. "Wouldn't it be strange for a boy like me to bring this back? Besides, I don't need this prize. My sister is too old to play with toys. Doesn't Naomi's sister really like magical girls? So I think Naomi would need it more than I do."

"No, I can't accept it. Miyazawa-kun drew it himself..."

Naomi shook her head in refusal.

Their relationship was purely based on money. Naomi had always known this.

All financial transactions are governed by the rules of the app.

Naomi paid, and then Miyazawa Itsuki devoted his time and effort.

The two were not in a truly intimate relationship.

"Is there any difference between what I drew and what Naomi drew?" Miyazawa Itsuki sighed.

"If Naomi hadn't picked out the manga for me, I wouldn't have been so lucky to win the prize," he said. "Besides, we're a couple, so it's perfectly normal for a boyfriend to give his girlfriend a gift."

"..."

Naomi Asahina was speechless.

Even the sales clerks and junior high school students watching nearby looked at them with envy.

"So sparkly..."

"Does Takanashi's boyfriend also say such powerful things on dates?"

"How could that be... and he's not even that handsome."

All the onlookers were eagerly awaiting Naomi's reaction.

Is it being moved to tears, being so excited that you rush over, or engaging in sweet flirting?

Couples showing affection is common, but high-quality displays of affection from couples are rare.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Naomi suddenly looked up and took Miyazawa Itsuki's hand.

"plz follow me."

Miyazawa Itsuki was pulled out of the pop-up store by her, and they quickly left the mall.

Nearby pedestrians turned their heads in surprise.

The girl's long golden hair swayed.

She was pulling at a handsome guy who seemed to be out of the loop, who was carrying several bags.

"May I ask where Naomi wants to take me?"

"I will pay for the extra time properly."

"It's not about the money... I mean, if Naomi wants to take me somewhere quiet to talk, I know a few places."

Naomi Asahina stopped in her tracks.

She loosened her grip on Miyazawa Itsuki's wrist and took a step back.

"I'm sorry, I was a bit rude."

Miyazawa Itsuki: "It's alright, in fact I should apologize. I might have been a bit presumptuous, taking it upon myself to give Naomi something..."

"No!"

"...?"

"It's not because Miyazawa-kun is going to give me a gift that I'm doing this... no, that's part of it too... Anyway, I'm happy that Miyazawa-kun is going to give me a gift, but..."

Naomi Asahina's face did not display her signature sunny smile.

"But I feel like I've been seen through." She gave a self-deprecating laugh.

Miyazawa Itsuki did not speak.

"...There's something I didn't want to say. I regretted it after I made plans to meet up with Miyazawa-kun, so I just wanted to have a casual date with a friend."

"But after seeing the gift Miyazawa-kun gave me, I suddenly felt that maybe it would be possible if it were Miyazawa-kun. After all, I don't have the courage to do something like that anymore."

Naomi sighed in an empty voice.

"Miyazawa-kun, would you like to hear my reasons?"

"My reason for booking a boyfriend for rent."
