"Then please ask my teammate Violet, from now on, to also be my girlfriend, Yuuki Asuna, and stay by my side forever."

085 The lead singer works too hard

Later, at Asagiri's home in Shibuya, Tokyo.

"Will it hurt?"

"No, just come whenever you want."

"Really...it won't hurt?"

Although the conversation between the two could easily lead to misunderstanding, in fact, it was just Yuuki Asuna applying medicine to Asagiri.

Seeing the dozens of bruises of varying sizes on the other person's upper body, Yuuki Asuna felt her heart ache. She moved very gently, fearing that she would use too much force and cause pain to Asagiri.

"Please use some strength, Yuuki-san... Oh no, Asuna."

Feeling the almost imperceptible gentle strength of Yuuki Asuna, as if caressing a work of art, Asagiri smiled and comforted her.

"I'm not some kind of porcelain that breaks at the slightest touch. There's no need to be so gentle."

"But..."

Asuna Yuuki pursed her lips, and finally just sighed helplessly, then increased the strength a little, and bent Asagiri's bruised body while asking softly.

"Why? Why are you trying so hard?"

“Because I’m the lead singer.”

Asagiri replied seriously, "As a lead singer, you just have to fight hard."

Upon hearing this, Yuuki Asuna was speechless and complained.

"We're a dungeon raiding team, not a band. How can we talk about a lead singer..."

"The principle is the same."

Asagiri suppressed his smile and spoke in a calm tone.

"I'm the captain of this team. Since I hold the most important position, it goes without saying that I must be able to shoulder everything, including the lives of the three of you. Of course, this is only part of the reason. More importantly..."

Having said that, Asagiri paused for a moment, and then spoke with eager anticipation.

"Just thinking about myself facing the hail of bullets and destroying those elite Blackwatch soldiers is really interesting."

Yuuki Asuna's expression became a little complicated, and she murmured.

"I wanted to say that this is a manifestation of Chuunibyou, but you have achieved this level... It seems that you have completely surpassed the scope of Chuunibyou..."

"I'm not a middle school student, I'm..."

"I know, it's cowardice, right?"

Asuna Yuuki smiled gently, put away the things used for applying medicine, and put them away again. Then she looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the sky that had become pitch black, raised her hand to tuck her long hair, and said softly with a little shyness.

"Well...it's already past eleven o'clock...the trains have stopped running..."

"Yes."

Asagiri is not the kind of male protagonist in most school romance anime who doesn't understand what others say. He immediately understood Yuuki Asuna's hint and extended the invitation with a smile.

"In that case, why don't you sleep at my house tonight?"

"Yeah, that's right."

Yuuki Asuna was secretly delighted and couldn't wait to reply.

"After all, your house is quite far from mine, so there's no need to waste money on a taxi. But... I didn't bring any pajamas..."

"Wear mine."

"it is good."

Asuna Yuuki responded shyly, and only walked into the bathroom after Asagiri brought her clean clothes. After all, she must have been sweating after several hours of special training. Going to bed without taking a shower was completely unacceptable to Asuna Yuuki, who had a mild obsession with mysophobia.

not to mention...

Asuna Yuuki turned on the faucet and looked at the hot water gradually rising in the bathtub. In the slightly hazy mist, she blushed and muttered to herself.

"Will you sleep together tonight..."

...........

The ending did not disappoint Asuna Yuuki.

At Asagiri's invitation, she lay down on the same bed with him. When the lights in the room went out and it became quiet, she could even hear her own heartbeat, which had become much faster than usual due to nervousness and shyness.

"that..."

Asuna Yuuki plucked up the courage, reached out her hand and gently held Asagiri's hand. The warmth from her palm made her feel a little relaxed.

"That Ashikaga teacher... can we really trust her? Not only you, but I also displayed outstanding physical qualities in front of her that normal people don't possess. If the players' affairs were revealed to the world, would she..."

"Will not."

Asagiri held Yuuki Asuna's hand and replied with a smile in her voice.

"How can I describe Ashikaga Miwa? As a direct descendant of the Ashikaga shogunate, she's a true aristocrat. Unlike the upstart chairman of Shuchiin, Shinomiya Komitsu, Ashikaga Miwa is a pure idealist. That's why she raised criticisms and dissatisfaction with the current Shuchiin atmosphere on the board of directors. She wouldn't care at all... No, if she knew we were players, she'd only think it was better. After all, we're both co-ed students who just entered high school."

"Ashikaga Miwa's idea is simple. Since raising her opinion in the board of directors would be vetoed by the decadent Shinomiya Yomiuri, she can let the students of Shuchiin witness it firsthand. This will change their stubborn belief that Shuchiin, as the most famous and outstanding university in Sakura Province, does not need to change at all."

"Shuzhiyuan is different from ordinary high schools. Most of its students come from very prominent backgrounds. Since Chairman Shigong Huangguang can't convince us and can't bring about top-down change, we hope that through stimulation, the majority of students will develop a desire for change and change the atmosphere of Shuzhiyuan from the bottom up."

"That's about it."

After hearing what Asagiri said, Yuuki Asuna was a little stunned.

"This...this...sounds so complicated..."

“It’s not complicated.”

Asagiri stretched out her other hand and gently stroked the long hair of Asuna Yuuki who was sleeping on her side, and said with a smile.

"To put it bluntly, it's Ashikaga Miwa who needs me. After all, a student like me who completely disregards Shuchiin and yet is more outstanding than anyone else in Shuchiin is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Pfft."

Yuuki Asuna couldn't help laughing and said in a gentle tone.

"While that's true, who would call themselves a once-in-a-lifetime student like you? That's too shameful."

Asagiri shot back bluntly.

"It feels... not as shameful as sleeping in the same bed on the first day of a relationship."

Hearing this, Yuuki Asuna's pretty face instantly turned red, and she pretended to stand up and said angrily.

"I'm leaving."

"Yo, threatening me?"

Asagiri retorted seriously, "As a righteous Leader, I will never accept any threats!"

"Tsk...you're really confident."

Although Yuuki Asuna said this, she still lay back on the bed obediently.

After several hours of special training, even she felt a little tired and was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes.

But before falling asleep...

"I..."

Yuuki Asuna gently pulled Asagiri's hand and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.

"As a couple, before going to bed... you should kiss each other, right?"

Asagiri immediately replied, "This is what I've been waiting for."

Then, their lips touched again.

"You...you don't touch me..."

Feeling Asagiri's hand reaching into her clothes, a layer of mist appeared in Yuuki Asuna's eyes. She subconsciously grabbed the other's hand and whispered.

"I... I'm not mentally prepared yet... and I'm very tired today and not in a good state..."

As she was talking, before Asagiri could say anything, Yuuki Asuna herself was a little flustered and hurriedly explained.

"Of course, it's not that I don't want to. I also want to do that with you...but...this is my first time, so I need to prepare myself mentally for a while. Don't worry, it won't take too long. Have a good rest today. When I'm ready, I will come to you and then we can do that..."

Seeing the cute look of Yuuki Asuna who was obviously extremely shy but still had to stammer to explain, Asagiri couldn't help but smile. He gently stroked her long hair and said softly with a smile.

"Don't panic, just take it step by step."

Hearing what Asagiri said, Yuuki Asuna finally breathed a sigh of relief. She first moved closer, put her cheek on Asagiri's chest, and curled up in his arms, speaking softly.

"I'm glad you understand me... then..."

Yuuki Asuna's cheeks were slightly red, she pursed her lips, then took the initiative to hold Asagiri's wrist, suppressing her shyness, and spoke in a voice as thin as a mosquito's hum.

"If you promise not to be impulsive..."

"It's okay to touch it for a while longer."

.............

At the same time, in an unfinished building outside Tokyo.

"Grip of Hades."

Kotoko Iwanaga leaned on a cane with her left hand, and slowly extended her right hand, aiming it at the spiritual creature in front of her that was dressed like a sumo wrestler, and slowly clenched her slender, white fingers.

The next second, a pale ghost hand with sharp black nails emerged from the void and grabbed the sumo spirit. As Iwanaga Kotoko moved, her five fingers also tightened, directly crushing the opponent into pieces.

"solve."

Seeing that Iwanaga Kotoko successfully dealt with the sumo wrestler-like spirit creature, a dead man with a kitchen knife on his head and blood all over his face expressed his gratitude with tears.

"Thank you, Princess! Thank you, Princess! Now we can live here again. Thank you so much!"

Kotoko Iwanaga turned her head and looked at the dead soul. She raised her hand to adjust her white beret, then spoke with a smile.

"You're welcome. This is also my duty as the God of Wisdom."

Then, Kotoko Iwanaga looked outside the unfinished building and saw the bright moon hanging in the sky. Because she had successfully solved the commission, she was in a very good mood at the moment. She even couldn't help humming a song and muttering to herself.

"Oh, it's the weekend, and I still have to deal with requests from monsters. I'm so busy that I don't even have the chance to invite Asagiri out for a date or spend some time together. I wonder what he's doing right now..."

................

At the same time, in the bedroom of Fujiwara Chika's house.

Shinomiya Kaguya looked at Fujiwara Chika who was sitting there and eating snacks, with a worried look on her face and a frown on her face.

"Chika, I always feel that... Utsunomiya Asagiri and Iwanaga Kotoko from my class, and Yuuki Asuna from your class... these three people are not right."

Fujiwara Chika turned around, with a look of pure confusion on her face, and tilted her head.

"Something's wrong? Is there? Do you suspect these three people are also 'players' like us? What's your reason for suspicion?"

"There's no reason yet."

Shinomiya Kaguya spoke softly, seeming to be lost in thought.

"I just have a hunch. If this so-called game had some sort of selection criteria, that eye icon app would definitely choose Utsunomiya Asagiri as a player. I don't know why, but I just feel like he's a perfect fit... No, more than just a fit, I think he'd be a perfect 'player.'"

"Eh? Do you think so highly of him? I don't think I've ever heard you praise someone so much, and..."

Having said that, Fujiwara Chika smiled with a slightly meaningful look.

"Besides, he's a very handsome boy."

"Do not make jokes."

Shinomiya Kaguya raised her hand and tucked her long black hair. Her beautiful red eyes contained no emotion at all, and she spoke in a calm tone.

"Until I gain the power I desire...I won't waste my time on this kind of thing."
