In the anime, people are in everyday Tokyo, but they are playing the reincarnation game

"that..."

Asuna Yuuki walked to the sofa, hesitated for a moment, and then sat next to Asagiri.

She raised her hand to tuck her long hair and spoke softly.

"Iwanaga Kotoko is someone you should trust, right? Her talent means she's not suited to being a lone wolf player, and... didn't she say she fell in love with you at first sight?"

"I've already told you, this won't work for me."

Asagiri picked up the can of Coca-Cola on the coffee table, drank it all in one gulp, and then asked with a smile.

"Yuuki-san, what do you think it means to like someone?"

"this..."

Yuuki Asuna didn't know how to answer. After all, the question raised by Asagiri had touched upon her blind spot in knowledge.

She has never been in love.

"If I believed she really liked me just by saying a few words, then I would be a bit stupid."

"That's true. You're not the type to be moved when a cute girl approaches you."

"of course."

Asagiri spoke in a matter-of-fact tone.

"If you like someone, you'll definitely show it through actions, not just words, right?"

Yuuki Asuna nodded: "Yes."

"It's like when everyone else is moving away from that person, you take the initiative to move closer."

Yuuki Asuna nodded again obediently: "Well, if you like someone, you will definitely take the initiative to approach them."

"For example, muster up the courage to take the initiative to ask for his contact information."

Yuuki Asuna was slightly surprised: "Huh? You know so much? Could it be that... you've been in love before?"

Asagiri waved her hand and did not answer Yuuki Asuna's question, but continued to smile.

"Don't interrupt me. For example, if you go to that person's house and cook for them, that definitely means you like them, right?"

Yuuki Asuna nodded and replied subconsciously.

"Of course. If she goes to someone else's house and cooks for them, what else could it be but love...eh?"

When she said this, Yuuki Asuna noticed that Asagiri was staring at her with interest, and she finally reacted. Her pretty face turned red instantly. She couldn't help but pick up the sofa cushion next to her and gently patted Asagiri, saying with mixed feelings of shame and anger.

"You...you...you set a trap for me!"

"I didn't, don't you agree with me?"

"you..."

Yuuki Asuna was unable to refute for a moment and was almost embarrassed to the point of turning into a steam princess.

If you think about it carefully, isn't that the case?

What about taking the initiative to approach others when they are far away, asking for their contact information, cooking for them...

Isn’t this just based on your own behavior?

"I...I'm going to bed!"

Asuna Yuuki didn't dare to look directly at Asagiri's face. She stood up, ran into the guest room, and locked the door.

Then, she leaned against the door, raised her hand and gently stroked her chest, feeling the increasingly intense throbbing sensation from her fingertips, and murmured to herself.

"I...it turns out, it turns out that I don't hate Iwanaga Kotoko...it turns out...that feeling is what's called jealousy..."

...........

That night, in Tokyo.

"Isn't this... this... Iwanaga Kotoko's home?"

Asuna Yuuki and Asagiri got out of the taxi together. Looking at the castle-like mansion in front of them, they were dumbfounded.

Her family was also very wealthy, and the villa where she originally lived with her parents was undoubtedly a mansion in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, compared with the white castle in front of it, it looks a bit shabby.

This place is still within the city area of Tokyo!

They built such an extremely luxurious independent castle in the city of Tokyo, and there are no other buildings within a few kilometers around it. How exaggerated is the scale of the wealth of Kotoko Iwanaga's family?

"Please come in, the young lady is already waiting for you inside."

Led by a young woman in a maid outfit, Asagiri and Yuuki Asuna walked towards the white castle in front of them.

"Iwanaga-san's house...is ridiculously huge..."

Hearing Yuuki Asuna's low voice, Asagiri said in a calm tone.

"If I hadn't obtained that thing, I wouldn't be meeting her here."

When Yuuki Asuna heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized that the "thing" Asagiri was talking about was the "inverted pocket watch".

"Do you... think Iwanaga-san might be here, setting an ambush for us?"

"The possibility is small, but not zero. After all, I still can't fully trust her. What if she actually knows the hidden rule that killing other players and stealing their phones will randomly draw a piece of their equipment or item, and deliberately asked us to meet here after we passed the dungeon, and then find someone to kill us? Then everything will be over."

After saying this, Asagiri continued softly.

"However, Iwanaga Kotoko not only possesses a powerful unique talent, but her mentality, intelligence, judgment, and all other abilities meet our standards for selecting teammates. Taking the risk of using that thing to verify whether she is worthy of our trust is acceptable to me."

"You are really cautious."

Yuuki Asuna sighed slightly and said with a complicated expression.

"It seems that there is only one person you can absolutely trust, and that is yourself..."

"No, two."

Asagiri interrupted Yuuki Asuna's words and said softly with a smile.

"I believe in myself, and I believe in Yuuki Asuna just as I believe in myself."

050 The Pure God of Wisdom

Hearing this, Yuuki Asuna couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. When she was about to reply, she had already arrived at the gate of the white castle mansion. She saw Kotoko Iwanaga, who had changed into a new light pink dress and a pink necklace around her neck. She was petite and cute, and was already standing there to greet the two of them.

"Yuuki-san, Asagiri, please come in."

Hearing Iwanaga Kotoko addressing Asagiri in such an intimate way, calling him by his name, Yuuki Asuna felt jealous again. You know, even she, at this stage, only called Asagiri "Utsunomiya-san" in a polite manner.

Are you too familiar, guy?

At this moment, Iwanaga Kotoko noticed that Asagiri's right hand had made a gesture as if she was holding a gun. She immediately reacted and smiled at the maid who was leading the way.

"Thank you for your hard work. You can leave now."

"Okay, Miss."

After the maid turned and walked away, Iwanaga Kotoko looked at Asagiri and gave her a sweet and gentle smile.

"I know you can't completely trust me yet, but I assure you, I've temporarily asked everyone in this house to leave. Now, there are only three of us. I haven't set any ambushes for you, so please rest assured, Yuuki-san."

“Everyone has been asked to leave, but…”

Asagiri returned the smile and asked back.

"What about those so-called monsters and demons?"

Iwanaga Kotoko was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then she waved her hands with a smile as if she was amused and explained.

"You completely misunderstood. Although I am the God of Wisdom of the monsters and they respect me as Princess, the only things I can command them to do are to pass on messages and gather intelligence."

"Let them kill? Over 95% of monsters don't have the ability to hurt people. The remaining small number are either monsters that simply don't understand my orders and will attack even me, with purely malicious intent, or, even if they understand, they will refuse to carry out orders to hurt people."

"After all, the fundamental reason they esteemed me as the God of Wisdom is to maintain order between monsters and human society. This is also my responsibility. If I issue orders that contradict this goal, it means that I am not worthy of being their princess."

"and......."

Kotoko Iwanaga raised her cane and tapped her left leg, making a crisp sound, and said with a smile.

"A weak girl with a physical disability like me, whether it's Yuuki-san or you, can kill me instantly at such a close distance, right? If I really set an ambush, I definitely wouldn't appear in front of you, and so close to you."

After saying this, Iwanaga Kotoko turned around, pushed open the door of the mansion, then made a gesture of invitation and said with a smile.

"Please come in."

After entering the mansion and coming to the living room, where Asuna Yuuki and Asagiri sat on the sofa, Kotoko Iwanaga pointed to the brewed black tea on the coffee table and the delicate-looking small pastries.

"Sorry, the tea might be a little cold because we asked everyone to leave early."

Yuuki Asuna quickly waved her hand and said a little stiffly.

"it does not matter."

"Well, I'm glad you don't mind. Now, let's get down to business."

Without saying a word of courtesy, Kotoko Iwanaga took out her mobile phone, opened the APP with the eye icon, and handed it to Asagiri and Asuna Yuuki.

"This is the reward information I received for completing the game."

Asuna Yuuki looked at the screen of her mobile phone and saw that the clearance comments received by Kotoko Iwanaga were almost exactly the same as hers. The difference was that she received an S+ rating, while Kotoko Iwanaga only received an A- rating. Even the clearance reward was only a short line.

[Congratulations on receiving the clearing reward: Unlock the basic class "Warlock", gain the skill "Cursed Gaze", and slightly increase the strength of mental power]

[Warlock: A basic combat support class that consumes mental energy to cast skills, causing mental damage to the enemy.]

[Cursed Gaze: When staring into the enemy's eyes, this skill can be activated by consuming a certain amount of mental power. If the player's mental power is higher than the enemy's, the enemy will experience symptoms such as dizziness, vomiting, and coma. The specific effect depends on the difference in mental power between the two parties. If the player's mental power is lower than the enemy's, the skill will fail to activate, and the player will suffer 50% of the skill's effect.]

"This...this reward..."

Asuna Yuuki seemed to be hesitant to speak. She wanted to say that this reward was not as good as the reward she got when she cleared the rookie copy, but she was afraid that she would be too blunt and rub salt into Kotoko Iwanaga's wound, so she could only force a smile.

"Well... this reward is quite suitable for you..."

"This reward is really rubbish."

Before Yuuki Asuna could say anything to comfort her, Asagiri had already started speaking her mind.

"However, an A-level clearance evaluation is indeed only worthy of rewards of this level."

"You're right."

Upon hearing this, Iwanaga Kotoko did not show any displeasure, but just smiled and nodded.

"However, this is to be expected. After all, even without me, you two would have been able to complete this dungeon in the same way. Furthermore, I didn't actually participate in the battle like Yuuki-san did. Therefore, the system determined that my contribution to the clearance was too minimal, and only gave me this level of evaluation and reward. This is reasonable."

After saying this, Iwanaga Kotoko held the tray in one hand and picked up the teacup on it with the other hand, taking a sip of the black tea, her movements showing elegance and composure.

She looked at Asagiri and smiled.

"Although I fell in love with you at first sight, if you still don't trust me despite my sincerity, my heart as a pure girl will be deeply hurt."

Yuuki Asuna couldn't help but complain.

"You? An innocent girl? Forget it. I've never heard of an innocent girl asking a boy to do... do that or something..."

"Oh, you mean I want Asagiri to help me with the development of my body parts?"

There was no trace of shyness on Kotoko Iwanaga's cute fair face. Instead, she replied with confidence.

"I didn't ask any boy to help me, I specifically asked Asagiri to help me. Isn't that pure love?"

051 Iwanaga Kotoko's Exorcism Invitation

Yuuki Asuna held her forehead and sighed, looking helpless.

"Your attitude is so self-righteous that I don't even know where to begin to complain..."

Next, Asagiri and Yuuki Asuna informed Iwanaga Kotoko of the rewards they received after completing the game.
