How to raise a random guy's wife

Secondly, it provides a clearer understanding of Akane Akasaka's good intentions;

Third, we have a clearer understanding of just how utterly we have lost.

Even though she hasn't caught up with Akane Akasaka back then, she's thinking of surpassing Akane Akasaka now;

Even though she didn't understand Akane's method, she was thinking of using a better method than hers;

Even though she didn't want to become like Akane Akasaka, she had no choice but to act like her.

Shame, frustration, resentment, anger...

A multitude of emotions swirled and collided on Kasumigaoka Utaha's face, finally coalescing into an extremely unpleasant expression.

"hateful......"

-

I have no desire to know anything about my parents' situation anymore, nor do I want to forgive them at all.

but......

Despite having this thought, my feet wouldn't obey me.

I slowly walked towards that door.

I can no longer leave U's house without investigating... without searching all the remaining rooms.

Do you feel that since you've already come this far, you might as well just keep going?

Or is it a sense of duty?

A sense of responsibility?

wrong.

You probably already understand from your own feelings.

It's basically knowing what's going on, but pretending not to see it.

I understood it as soon as I got to the second floor.

No, maybe...

It all started when U brought her to her house stabbed with a knife...

It would be too strange if it weren't like that.

Otherwise, it would take too long no matter what.

With that thought in mind, I slowly turned the doorknob and pushed the door open.

A stench assaulted my senses, like a vicious curse assaulting my nostrils, forcibly shoving pure filth and malice into my brain.

Bathed in sunlight streaming through the window, the two corpses appeared quite intimate.

The mother strangled the father with an electrical cord, while the father's hands gripped the mother's neck tightly.

The rotting corpses seemed to be dancing together.

"Ha..." I burst out laughing, "Hahahaha..."

-

"That's it?" Kobayashi Megumi flipped through the manuscript; all that remained was blank space. "What happens next?"

"I haven't drawn it yet," Akane Kousaka replied. "I'll stop here for now, but I've finished writing the story. Do you want to read it?"

"Never mind," Kobayashi Megumi shook her head. "I'll just wait for the manga."

Having read Akane Akasaka's new work, Megumi Kobayashi, I have a deeper understanding of yesterday's exchange between Utaha Kasumigaoka and Izumi Hashima.

As the protagonist walks step by step toward the room, the emotions that have been building up little by little explode upon seeing the scene that combines horror and beauty, creating a chilling sensation that simultaneously stimulates physical changes, resulting in a thoroughly exhilarating experience.

“I mean…” Kobayashi Sora sighed, “You actually drew this story.”

When Kobayashi Sora accompanied Akasaka Akane on a research trip to Hokkaido, Akasaka Akane got the idea to write a story about an adult woman being imprisoned by a younger high school student because Kobayashi Sora kept saying he would lock Akasaka Akane in the basement.

Because it felt a bit off, I changed it to an adult male manga artist being imprisoned by a high school girl.

Kobayashi Sora asked curiously, "Didn't you originally plan to write a JK (high school girl) story? How did it turn into a JS (Japanese schoolgirl) story?"

“I finished writing it a long time ago, but I wasn’t satisfied with it, so I didn’t publish it,” Akane Akasaka replied. “Later, I got inspiration from you guys and revised it before I finished it.”

It's not a matter of making some changes. What was once a lighthearted and somewhat sweet story has now become a heavy story discussing the damage caused by one's family of origin and methods of raising children.

"So far, I'm fairly satisfied. Let's not talk about that." Akane Kousaka looked at Utaha Kasumigaoka. "So, what's the purpose of your visit?"

"Let's see if that unrestrained guy that Sonoko mentioned has gotten worse." Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and lowered her eyes slightly. "It seems like it's coming soon."

“That’s such a shame…” Akane Akasaka rested her chin on her hand, staring at Utaha Kasumigaoka with amusement. “Some people must be quite resentful that she fell down before she was even defeated.”

"I'm not resentful at all!" Eriri stuck out her tongue. "If it weren't for your health, I could easily beat you right now!"

"Oh?" Akane Kousaka glanced to the side. "Is Kashiwagi-sensei this considerate?"

"Who...who's being considerate of you!"

"Who said you were considerate of me?" Akane Akasaka chuckled. "I meant that I was clearly targeting Kasumi-sensei just now, but you stood up for her. Are you that afraid of hurting her feelings?"

Eriri blushed, "You! I...she..."

"Complete defeat..." Kobayashi Sora sighed.

Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha can go toe-to-toe, but they are completely powerless against Akane Kousaka.

Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly spoke up, "You're right."

"What do you mean, 'right'?!" Eriri exploded. "What's right about it?!"

“Although I don’t want to admit it, but…” Kasumigaoka Utaha paused, “you were right to reprimand me back then.”

"The scolding back then..." Akane Kousaka looked at Eriri, "What do you think?"

"I......"

Good grief, it even has a pursuit function.

"Thank you for your guidance back then." Kasumigaoka Utaha lowered her arms and bowed deeply. "Thank you very much."

"Wait a minute." Akane Kousaka took out her phone. "Let's try again."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "...Wishful thinking."

"Tch..." Akane Akasaka put her phone away in disappointment. "What happened?"

"I......"

Kasumigaoka Utaha had just opened her mouth when she was interrupted by Akane Kousaka.

Akane Akasaka waved her hand, signaling Utaha Kasumigaoka to shut up, and pointed at Sora Kobayashi, "You speak."

As a fellow creator, Akane Akane is all too aware of the flaws creators have.

Things that could be explained in just a few sentences are instead filled with a lot of personal emotions, making them long and tedious.

If the purpose is to create an atmosphere, evoke emotions, and depict emotional changes to lead into subsequent content, then this is understandable.

But Akane Kousaka doesn't want to hear about emotions right now; she just wants to know what happened.

Therefore, Kobayashi Sora, with her rational thinking, is a better narrator than Kasumigaoka Utaha, the person involved.

Kobayashi Sora concisely recounted the events.

In short, Kasumigaoka Utaha realized the gap between herself and Akasaka Akane during the process of guiding Hashima on her voyage.

Just as her voyage to Homura Island was no longer aimed at Eriri, but rather at improving herself, Kasumigaoka Utaha also let go of her initial obsession and faced her current predicament squarely.

And decided to ask Akane Akasaka for advice.

There's nothing shameful about asking someone you want to surpass for advice.

Kobayashi Sora also wanted to surpass his father, but that didn't stop him from seeking his father's advice.

It's truly shameful to fixate on your fellow travelers ahead of you when you're aiming for a higher peak, clinging to a pointless obsession.

In order to better communicate with Akane Akasaka, Kasumigaoka Utaha asked Megumi Kobayashi to accompany her.

Past experience convinced Kasumigaoka Utaha that as long as Kobayashi Megumi was present, the situation wouldn't be too bad.

When Kobayashi Megumi comes, Kobayashi Sora will naturally come too.

In the process of communication, friendliness alone is not enough; meticulous logic and calm thinking are also needed to move things forward.

Then Eriri will come too.

she......

Come on then.

Then, upon arriving at Akane Kousaka's studio, Akane Kousaka handed them her recently completed painting, "The Girl Is Not Quite Good," to try.

And then it's here now.

Akane Akane listened attentively and quickly analyzed Kasumigaoka Utaha's mental journey.

Then a conclusion was drawn.

Akane Akane carefully examined Kasumigaoka Utaha's face, "Call me Mom."

Eriri: "Huh?"

"Seeing that the children she raised have all grown up, and her own life is still unsettled, not to mention children, she doesn't even have any close male relatives, this old woman, realizing she's about to die childless, finally can't control her restless maternal instincts..." Kasumigaoka Utaha's voice was icy. "Have you started going around claiming children?"

Kobayashi Megumi was stunned.

As expected of Kasumigaoka Utaha, she was able to fluently utter such sharp and poignant words in such a short time.

Kobayashi Sora: "..." Akane Akasaka seems to have awakened some incredible fetish.

Fortunately, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not admit it.

Otherwise, Xiaolin Lan's godmother would still be her godmother.

No, it seems like things have been in chaos for a while now.
