I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

"I don't know if my children will be able to see my work in the future."

"Wow, you've got a pretty good idea of ​​what's to come, Yu-kun."

Mai Sakurajima chuckled twice, then said sarcastically, "You don't even have a wife, and you're already thinking about having children?"

"Yes."

Genkawa Yu sighed, feigning distress, and said, "After all, I also want my children to see my work, but unfortunately, I can't find anyone to have children for me."

"Hmph! Smooth talker!"

Mai Sakurajima knew what he meant, pinched his arm, and said irritably.

"Let Kurokawa have your baby!"

"Really."

Genkawa Yu shrugged, displaying an extremely thick-skinned and indifferent attitude, which made Sakurajima Mai both annoyed and amused.

"Really."

Mai Sakurajima blushed slightly, as if she had thought of something, and then scolded him playfully.

"Don't you dare bully me when we eat later!"

"I haven't done anything yet, you're making these premature statements, Officer Sakurajima."

"Humph!"

Mai Sakurajima took Yu Genkawa's hand and then looked straight ahead without looking at him.

"If you dare to cause any trouble later, I'll arrest you!"

"Yes, yes, Officer Sakurajima, I promise I won't do anything bad."

At the same time, in the penthouse suite of the Hotel Yottan Umeda in downtown Osaka, the atmosphere was completely different.

Akane Kurokawa and Megumi Kato sat facing each other on the large leather sofa, with a heavy glass coffee table between them, on which were two glasses of water.

Although the conversation was initiated by Akane Kurokawa, her thoughts were still replaying the phone call she had just had with Mai Sakurajima.

The reason she was able to convince herself was because Mai Sakurajima offered a crucial explanation.

"Have you ever thought carefully about what role Kato plays in Yu-kun's life?"

"Not an artist's assistant?"

"Hehe, I'm not referring to work, but to emotions... or something more private."

"What do you think."

"You should know that Yu-kun is very dependent on her, right? It's quite obvious, and the dependence has become increasingly excessive. Last time, when Yu-kun was asleep, I saw Kato even feeding him water. Have you ever seen a female assistant directly touching a male celebrity's face and neck?"

"...Go on."

"And before that, I saw Yu-kun casually pat her head, and Kato seemed to be used to it too."

"They are indeed very close."

"Kurokawa, I have a guess... I don't know if it's right."

Mai Sakurajima's voice carried a hint of doubt, which was also her truest feeling deep down.

"I feel that Kato is deliberately indulging Yu-kun... Only when Yu-kun has many girls around her will she have a chance."

"What's the point of this?"

"hehe."

After a cold laugh, Mai Sakurajima analyzed.

"If Yu-kun remains faithful to his feelings, do you think Kato will have a chance?"

"Yu-kun has now accepted both you and me, and the situation is getting increasingly complicated. Who knows, one day... Kato might end up taking care of Yu-kun in bed..."

"..."

Akane Kurokawa was speechless.

She recalled Kato Megumi's intimate knowledge of Minakawa Yu's daily habits, her ability to arrange everything in advance and the smile that pleased Minakawa Yu, and the extraordinary trust and closeness Minakawa Yu had for her.

"Whoo~"

Akane Kurokawa took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her surging thoughts.

"Kato-san, there's something I'd like to ask you."

Kato Megumi tilted her head slightly, a questioning expression on her face.

"Kurokawa-san, please ask. I will answer you directly if I know the answer."

Akane Kurokawa looked directly into her eyes, cutting to the chase and asking the core question.

"What exactly do you think of Yu-kun?"

The moment the question was posed, the air in the living room seemed to freeze a little more.

Kato Megumi's expression remained unchanged.

She simply looked at Akane Kurokawa quietly, and after a few seconds, the girl chuckled softly and then said.

"Why do you ask that? I'm just Genkawa-san's assistant; he's my employer and boss."

"You should know what I mean."

Akane Kurokawa's tone became more forceful; she no longer wanted to play word games.

"Not as an assistant, not as an employee, but as a woman, how do you feel about Yu-kun?"

This time, Kato Megumi remained silent for a slightly longer period.

When she turned her gaze back to Akane Kurokawa's face, the girl's lips curled up into a faint smile.

"I see."

Kato Megumi spoke softly, each word like a pebble thrown into a lake, clearly striking Kurokawa Akane's heart.

“I understand what you mean, Kurokawa-san.”

The next moment, Kato Megumi paused, her gaze meeting Kurokawa Akane's suddenly sharp stare without flinching.

"Yes, I like Genkawa-san."

"It's a woman's... affection for a man."

The moment the words left his mouth, the living room fell into a deathly silence.

Akane Kurokawa's expression turned to one of utter astonishment. She opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

What do you mean? Why did she just say it out loud?

So composed, so...fearless?

Didn't she know that saying those words would complicate things?

"you..."

Akane Kurokawa noticed that her voice was trembling, but she couldn't find the right words to reply.

"Kurokawa-san, although I gave my answer, it has nothing to do with my work."

Kato Megumi continued, her tone remaining calm.

"No matter what happens, Genkawa-san will continue to let me stay by his side; that's our promise."

"..."

Akane Kurokawa was startled.

She instantly understood that this was where Kato Megumi's true confidence lay.

Even if he were to force Genkawa Yu to fire Kato Megumi, it would be impossible.

Because Yuu Minakawa can no longer live without her.

"I just want to stay by Genkawa-san's side and watch him move forward step by step."

Kato Megumi took a sip of water.

"Is there anything else you'd like to ask, Kurokawa-san?"

"..."

Akane Kurokawa jumped up from the sofa, clenching her small hands into fists, but unable to do anything.

"Heh, everything's fine now, Kato-san. I'm going to rest."

"Ok."

Kato Megumi smiled slightly, her expression remaining calm and composed.

Volume 3: I Am a Knight of the New Era - Chapter 61: Kurokawa Akane, Her Feminine Attributes Explode! (2-in-1 5k)

The door to the restaurant's private room quietly closed behind us, shutting out all outside noise.

Sakurajima Mai and Genkawa Yu were having a meal together. After a few rounds of drinks and several dishes, Genkawa Yu decided to start talking to his girl about serious matters.

"Mai, after the end of this year's Burning Series Inheritance Battle, I plan to write a book... and embark on the path of a literary master."

Genkawa Yuu?Tsubasa (7?) Five]?iV Jiu Ba looked at Sakurajima Mai seriously and said slowly.

"Only capitalists and literary giants can avoid being manipulated by others."

Mai Sakurajima was slightly taken aback, but she knew what kind of man she was, so she immediately smiled again.

"Yu-kun, you really are a greedy person."

"Greed? Why do you say that?"

"Is not it?"

Sakurajima Mai said with a smile, a hint of cunning and tenderness in her eyes. Now that she knew Genkawa Yu's feelings, she naturally knew how to tease him.

"Is it because there are other girls that drive you down this difficult path? After all, most of the news related to literary giants is about sex scandals."

"Uh..."
