I really don't want to have a girlfriend.

Even though he wasn't sure if she liked him, Yuu Tenkuji didn't dislike the feeling of kissing her.

Whether it's to awaken her memory or to tell her the answer she currently has—

For the next fifty seconds, he will no longer let reason restrain his instincts, nor will he use tedious and complicated words, but will act decisively without any hesitation or affectation.

Let Kasumigaoka Utaha return to my side and walk the rest of the way with him.

"Well!"

As the boy ruthlessly plundered her, the girl's brief groan quickly disappeared into the corner in front of the stairwell.

Clothes rubbed together, breathing became rapid, and hair became tangled.

The cold walls did nothing to stop the spread of enthusiasm.

In the almost intoxicating frenzy, Kasumigaoka Utaha seemed to have lost control of her body, only able to float and sink in that skillful technique, her consciousness as if floating on clouds, so dazed that she forgot about time and breath.

Unbeknownst to them, shimmering fragments of light seemed to gradually rise from the deepest part of the seabed.

……

I think I had a dream.

Fear, terror, grievance, and confusion—that must have been a nightmare, right?

Yes, it's a nightmare. A nightmare that makes you want to wake up as soon as possible.

...But why is it so painful to forget the process of having a nightmare?

Sometimes I feel happy, sometimes I feel at ease, and sometimes a faint sense of happiness lingers in my heart.

It seems like I spent a very important time with someone somewhere—that must have been a beautiful dream, right?

That's why, as if waking from a dream, a sense of loss and sadness kept welling up.

Why do I feel this way?

It's ridiculous...

Clearly, there couldn't be anything happier than this.

……

The misty, soft, moist gaze suddenly cleared.

Kasumigaoka Utaha opened her eyes, gazing at the boy in front of her, who was engrossed in playing with his tongue, with a slight smile and deep affection, like the happiest girl in the world.

Then she opened her arms and wrapped them around his neck, awkwardly but even more enthusiastically welcoming him.

Chapter 150 Jieming's Feelings, A Promise for the Future

Yu Tenkuji doesn't consider herself a rigid or inflexible person.

He did not have saintly high moral standards, nor did he adhere to the precepts like some believers.

Although she has a kind of mental fastidiousness and doesn't readily accept advances from just anyone—there are just too many promiscuous women these days—she doesn't care much about her first kiss or first experience, nor does she insist on clinging to those things.

If a well-known older woman invited him to spend the night without any responsibility, then of course he would…

I'll try to go when my sister isn't looking.

Not engaging in casual sex, not soliciting prostitutes, and not starting relationships only to abandon the partner – these are, of course, the bottom line for a good man.

However, if she were single, she would naturally be very happy to add some fun to her life with someone she had a crush on, enriching her life experience.

For example, kissing Kasumigaoka Utaha... or rather, a passionate kiss with some physical interaction.

Under normal circumstances, Yuu Tenkuji would never have hesitated for so long. After all, kissing and sleeping together are different. He doesn't need to be prepared for the possibility of the other person getting pregnant. He can kiss whenever he wants, and it's no big deal to take advantage of the situation while kissing.

Even if it's not just a casual fling, gradually deepening the relationship and eventually reaching the point where it naturally leads to a successful relationship isn't exactly an unpleasant development.

But here's the problem.

First of all, Kasumigaoka Utaha must be a girl who values ​​chastity highly and is devoted to the person she likes.

Never having been in a relationship means you still have longings and fantasies about love, and you want the beginning and the end to be perfect.

This means that when she was pinned against the wall without any resistance, and he was wildly licking her lips with his tongue, she might have already thought of the names for their future children.

If you dare to shirk responsibility, I'll kill you and then commit suicide—that's the meaning of this kiss.

Perhaps she would be stronger and more independent in other worlds?

For example, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was still able to help Sora with his funeral arrangements after their "breakup" on the Ferris wheel.

In any case, Yuu Tenkuji believed that Kasumigaoka Utaha in front of him would really try to fight him to the death if he didn't intend to take responsibility.

Next, let's just say I really have to take responsibility for Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Yuu Tenkuji now has a girlfriend.

Although it's in the trial world, and although it's unknown whether Isshiki Hayao in the real world can still remember the things they once did together.

But for him, who hasn't regained his memory yet, this means that while on a business trip, he developed an impure friendship with a female colleague, essentially cheating on his girlfriend...

Seriously, he's such a scumbag!

Yu-san, didn't you hear me? Iroha is calling you to go back and see the cherry blossom trees in your hometown!

"Ugh...mmm, haha..."

As he kissed the beautiful girl, Yuu Tenkuji felt a surge of guilt that showed no sign of stopping.

After all, this was to allow Kasumigaoka Utaha to regain her memories and fulfill the "necessary evil" they had agreed upon.

If I were to become my complete self, transforming from a cheating scumbag into a harem protagonist, perhaps I could face this kiss with a more composed and at ease...

Right now, it's simply an ongoing affair.

It was a devastating blow to his self-proclaimed image as a devoted and good boyfriend.

—Given the current situation, Yuu Tenkuji no longer intended to pretend to be virtuous while being a prostitute.

It's an undeniable fact that he developed feelings for Kasumigaoka Utaha, kissed her with romantic feelings, and then casually touched, rubbed, and hugged her.

What's done is done, and the responsibilities cannot be shirked; therefore, we can only accept it with equanimity.

He, Tenkuji Yu, is a scumbag who only thinks about what's in his bowl and eats what's in the pot!

After that, there was only one thing he needed to do.

If there is a chance to return to Qiong's trial world in the future, and if Caiyu has not forgotten their relationship, then she should apologize to her and try to get her permission to cheat on him!

A choice between two options? Impossible.

Just like the choice he made in his memories, the perfect ending he wanted to see was having all the girls he liked with him.

Whether they are scum who prey on innocent young girls or fools who refuse to face reality, it doesn't matter.

Even if the whole world doesn't accept his choice.

Yuya Tenkuji believed in himself and that he could make the whole world change for him—no matter how many years it would take, no matter whether he could live to see the future after graduation.

He came into this world precisely to find his own happiness.

No matter when or where, no one can stop him from moving forward. Neither the law nor morality can stop him.

—At this moment, Tenkuji Yu suddenly understood many things, and it was as if he heard the sound of a lock being unlocked in his heart.

Faint memories flooded his mind, and although they were still blurry, they gave him the feeling that his empty and false inner self was being filled little by little.

Those were warm and happy memories, treasures he absolutely did not want to part with.

This is the best evidence that someone is waiting for you to come home.

'...Soon. Just a little while longer.'

Slowly closing her eyes, Yuu Tenkuji silently recited in her heart.

"Wait for me, I'm coming right now." (Running there.)

Then, he continued to respond to the girl's increasingly intense reactions, accepting them in a more mature and gentle manner.

Kissing Kasumigaoka Utaha's soft, moist, sweet lips, he suddenly remembered what "that girl" had said in his memories.

"Next, please take the time to appreciate Kasumigaoka Utaha's strengths. I look forward to the moment you fall in love with her."

At the time, Tenkuji Yu was dismissive, thinking that since he already had someone he liked, how could he be captured by a mere black-stockinged giant cat?

She revealed a smile as if she had seen through everything, looking like she was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

"I know. Even if you don't know what I know now, you'll know everything soon enough."

This puzzling statement has finally been answered.

'Did this guy plan all this out in advance...?'

Or rather, because she knew he would eventually realize his true nature as a scumbag, she had no doubt that he would make mistakes while they were together day and night.

Tenkuji Yu rolled her eyes, and at the same time, in order to prevent Kasumigaoka Utaha from noticing that she was distracted, she used the heat exercise of her palms on her fat to keep her from being distracted by the quick sex.

At the same time, she smiled wryly to herself: 'Congratulations on fulfilling your wish, Kasumigaoka Utaha.'

Perhaps she has completely disappeared in the process of bringing the two together, or perhaps she is still lurking in some corner of this world, waiting to come out and help them at a crucial moment.

Regardless, Yuu Tenkuji must properly address this "mastermind"—

'Thank you. '

"I won't let all this hard work go to waste, don't worry."

From this day forward, I will be responsible for your future.

The unspoken words seemed to travel through the wind, carried by the rhythm of a heartbeat.

The corner of the bookshelf was quietly bathed in sunlight, and the chair that had been pushed out still retained its warmth.

On the table, which should have been empty, there seemed to be a shadowy image of a black-covered notebook, as if it had been there from the very beginning and had never left.

There was no wind, yet the pages of the book were slowly turned by the breeze, revealing words that no one had ever seen before.

Without any sound, the page was turned to the last page.

Only one sentence remains, written forlornly in the very center.

May my loved ones be forever happy, and may those who love me never regret it—may a miracle as bright as light grant her story an endless ending.
