I really don't want to have a girlfriend.

Seeing this, Tenkuji Yu tilted her head back and finished the rest of her tea in one gulp. Then she stood up and said crisply:

"You're all clean? Good, since you've made the necessary preparations, I won't hesitate any longer—let's go to sleep!"

"Huh? Huh—!?"

Suddenly opening her watery eyes, Asuna instinctively cried out in surprise, staring at him in disbelief, her hands instinctively clutching her chest and taking two steps back.

These two steps bumped into the foot of the bed, and the girl fell backward unexpectedly, her long hair, still warm, immediately spreading out in disarray.

She lay on the bed, her figure delicate and frail, biting her lip as she breathed heavily, her gaze fixed on his face with a warning yet weak and powerless look.

Her jade-like body lay sprawled on the quilt, her pretty face flushed and rosy, her appearance so inviting that Tenkuji Yu, who had just finished drinking hot tea, couldn't help but swallow hard, and then couldn't resist...

I laughed.

"Idiot, even if I really wanted to do something, you could easily punish me with a 'harassment warning.' Is it really necessary to be this afraid?"

Asuna snapped out of her daze, quickly sat up, and glared at him, both embarrassed and annoyed: "Who, who's scared! This is a normal reaction for any young girl, okay? Who told you to look like a pervert!"

"Don't slander me. I had the 'wanting to finish the mission quickly' look on my face the whole time." Tenkuji Yu shrugged, walked to the bedside with a relaxed expression, then lifted the quilt, lay down, and patted the pillow next to him.

"You've finished your bath and changed your clothes, let's hurry up and hatch the eggs."

"Gu..."

Slightly gritting her teeth, Asuna stared intently at his overly calm expression. After taking a deep breath, as if making a decision, she silently uttered a soft "Mmm!"

She opened the menu, turned off the room lights, and then walked towards the bed.

A silvery moonlight streamed in through the window, making the girl's chestnut hair appear even smoother in the night. Her eyes, without any hesitation, shone with a clear and unwavering determination, like the glint of a blade.

For some reason, Yuu Tenkuji sensed something was amiss.

"Yu-kun..."

"During this brief time together, I discovered something..."

As Asuna spoke, she gently tugged at the collar of her clothes.

All her shyness transformed into a sense of relief at understanding her own feelings, and a gentle and reassuring smile appeared on her beautiful face.

"Although I don't know you well enough, and I don't know anything about you in real life..."

She walked to the bedside, lifted the quilt, and slowly shrank her soft, hot body into the empty space next to him.

"Although we were forced into marriage in a hypothetical world, and although we reached this point without any emotional foundation..."

She rested her chin on her hand, gazing lovingly at him, whose body was subtly tense, her gaze as gentle as her laughter.

"But I'm willing."

"...What exactly are you trying to say?"

Suppressing the burning agitation within him, Tenkuji Yu met her gaze calmly, showing no sign of panic.

After all, this was the first time he had ever been so close to a woman other than his sister, a woman who had just taken a shower and smelled amazing.

It was as if he could reach out and knead and play with her at will, as if he could just throw everything away and indulge the beast within him that was beginning to awaken.

Perhaps the system had foreseen this situation?

That's why his physical sensations were adjusted to match reality, and the "ethical restriction system" was removed, allowing him to unleash his male instincts in this imaginary world.

And so it falls into depravity, becoming the kind of person the dog system wants to see.

In the warm and fragrant bed, Tenkuji Yu gritted her teeth and tried to regulate her erratic breathing.

Even without the dog system, his expert-level recoil control skills still made him as steady as a rock, calmly and composedly facing the charming girl in front of him.

—Foolish teenage girl, I didn't say those things to sleep with you, but to give you a pep talk, to wake you up, and to make you stick to what you want to do in reality!

So don't tempt me here, hurry up and fulfill your own desires, then lose your memory with a smile!

"What I meant to say was..."

She stared intently into his eyes, ignoring the fact that her ears were already burning red, until she spotted a hint of evasion in them. Only then did she squint in satisfaction and giggle.

"I'm willing to hatch the egg with you, that's all! Don't get me wrong~"

Asuna tapped the tip of his nose with her finger and smiled smugly, like a silly older sister who had finally beaten her genius younger brother.

Her delicate body, which had been somewhat tense since the beginning, gradually relaxed as she finished speaking.

She pursed her dry lips and looked at Tenkuji Yu's expression, which, though not obvious, seemed to show relief.

For some reason, she hid under the covers and whispered another sentence:

"Even if you misunderstand, it's okay..."

Yuu Tenkuji: "..."

His cheek twitched slightly, and just as he was about to say something, he froze on the bed.

hum-

Without any warning, a blinding white light appeared before my eyes, and the warm, cozy bed was suddenly empty.

That was the light when I logged out.

The thought had barely crossed my mind when a cold wind began to blow in, and the quilt slowly fell down, barely managing to retain the last trace of fragrance and warmth.

After a long pause, Yuu Tenkuji sat up from the bed.

The girl who had been lying beside him vanished from this world without saying a word.

Asuna...?

△

"Power cut off, you have been forcibly logged off."

The words obscured his face, causing Asuna's rapid heartbeat to suddenly stop. Immediately, a sense of emptiness, as if detached from reality, enveloped her, and a heavy pressure pushed her back from the surface of the water to the bottom of the sea.

"What's going on?!"

Suddenly opening her eyes, Asuna Yuuki found herself in a room obscured by the dark lenses of her virtual reality headset. She gasped for breath as if drowning before struggling to get out of bed.

The room lights are on.

But she clearly remembered that the lights were turned off before entering the game...

She blinked in surprise, and the question was answered the moment she took off her helmet.

"Asuna."

A familiar, cold voice rang out beside me.

The chill, like falling into an ice cellar, instantly froze my blood.

Her whole body was stiff and tense. Yuuki Asuna opened her mouth but could hardly breathe. Her nose and lungs felt like they were filled with ice water, causing her pain and suffocation.

Even if she had seen a real ghost, it probably wouldn't have terrified her to the point of near despair like this.

"Mother……?"

She mechanically turned her neck and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

Standing by the bed, Kyoko Yuuki stared at him expressionlessly, as if a storm was gathering in her cold eyes.

"Come downstairs and explain what you were doing just now."

Chapter 59 My online boyfriend seems to be pursuing me in real life? (16/27)

Outside the window, neon lights and engines roaring past create a modern night scene.

Yuu Tenkuji took off his helmet, sat up on the bed, and pondered for a few seconds with his hand on his chin.

Suddenly, she picked up her phone from beside her, opened the messaging app, and after confirming that Asuna Yuuki hadn't sent her any messages, she immediately opened Koichiro Yuuki's chat room.

Before logging out, Asuna did not pull up the system menu, and seemed to be looking forward to hatching eggs with her, which is enough to prove that she did not log out voluntarily.

There are two main reasons for forced offline: one is a problem with the device or network, and the other is that the power cord or NERvGEAR is unplugged.

Although it's just speculation, it's very possible that Asuna Yuuki's mother discovered she was secretly playing games and forced her to log out.

It's like a boy secretly watching a porn movie in the dark, only to turn around and find his mother standing in the doorway; or like watching a philosophical video while your girlfriend is taking a shower, only to find that she was just bluffing, peeking in through the door, her face full of anticipation, waiting for you to enter that world of muscle-bound action...

Ugh, just thinking about it sends chills down my spine!

Yuu Tenkuji subconsciously looked towards the door—thankfully, he always locked the door when playing games, so he wasn't afraid of anyone suddenly barging in; his phone was also connected to the virtual reality headset, so if Sora wanted to find him, she could find out in the game.

He looked away and sent a message to Yuki Koichiro.

At this time, you absolutely must not send a message or call Asuna Yuuki.

Given her family's situation, it's easy to imagine what would happen if she were caught secretly playing games—a family meeting would probably be inevitable.

Now, either she doesn't have time to check the messages, or her mother has seen them, making the situation more complicated.

Yuu Tenkuji wouldn't be so reckless as to let his concern turn into something bad.

So the fastest way to find out the situation is, of course, to ask your brother-in-law... oops, I mean, to ask Brother Hao, who likes to sell his sister.

Ayou: "Brother Hao, are you home right now?"

Not long after, Koichiro Yuki, who seemed to always be online, sent back a message.

Hao Ge: "I'm back in college, living in the dorms now. I'm not exaggerating, but not having my parents to manage me feels amazing!"

Ayu: "...Heh, that's great."

Hao: "By the way, what did you want to see me about?"

Ayou: "It seems your sister got caught playing games by your mom and was just forced offline. I'm a little worried about her."

Hao Ge: "??? What's going on?"

Hao: "Wait, my mom called. I'll talk to her later."

Communication was lost here.

Yuu Tenkuji had no choice but to put down his phone for the time being. After thinking for a moment, he opened the system panel to check.

Remembering something, he couldn't help but mutter, "Is this the inevitable path to the end...?"

As his relationship with Asuna Yuuki warms up, the rewards on the system panel become more and more numerous and abundant.
