My love game with them that will lead to certain death

[But she is not afraid of death. After all, death cannot separate people. Instead, it can reunite those who were separated in life, just like when the twins who just showed signs of life took shape in their mother's womb. No one can separate you anymore, after all, you were connected by the umbilical cord when you were born.]

[Ending: Incomplete twins and complete souls. You sacrificed yourself so that your sister, Sawamura Eriri, could continue her life. You fulfilled your sister's life as the most competent brother. You left your body, but your soul always stayed with her.]

【Achievements: "Decathlon", "Male Protagonist of Girls' Comics", "Your Name", "All Ages Yosuga no Sora", etc., a total of more than ten achievements.】

Wait, what the hell is “Yuno Sora for all ages”?

[Story completion: S, influence: A, synchronization rate S+. ]

[The positive attributes you can inherit from this simulation, as I promised before, will be all your outstanding performance in this simulation. ]

This is where the fun part comes in. Serve it up quickly. (Can’t wait)

To be honest, Ming Hai may not care too much about other related matters after each simulation, but the settlement reward is definitely the most important and crucial part for him.

Chapter 65 I am an only child!

[Positive attributes you can gain in this simulation: "Favored by the goddess of luck", "Impeccable learning ability", "Superman-like physical strength in the air", "Prince Charming-like attractiveness"...]

Wait, why does the last one sound like the protagonist configuration that often appears in girls' comics?

[I promised you that all positive performances in this simulation will be calculated into the reward attributes. Isn't this what you want? ]

"It's not that I don't want this to happen, but with this attribute, I might be able to be called the protagonist in a shoujo comic, but in a youth love comedy for men, I always feel like she's just cannon fodder that gets eliminated by the male protagonist after just a few appearances."

[That is only limited to certain works where the dull and wooden male protagonist is created to facilitate the empathy of some readers. If you don't have any real advantages, how can you attract cute girls? Is it by imagining that you are the protagonist of a romance novel? ]

Damn it, buddy, please delete it. It’s making me sweat in the cold winter.

[In short, these positive attributes are originally extracted from your performance. You don't need to feel guilty or bothered by them. They are originally yours.]

"Well - I don't feel guilty about it."

Who would complain that the reward for completing a game is too generous? Ming Hai was just being cautious and worried about whether there might be any fraud.

"But I still have a question. It seems that the system didn't explain it clearly enough."

[Oh? If you have any questions, please feel free to speak up.]

[I understand that every time you arrange something, it will lead to my death, and things will end well. But I don't quite understand why you must arrange such an ending for Eriri. What criteria do you base your decisions on for the direction and arrangement of each simulation?]

In other words, the system that exists as "God" in this simulation game can easily decide the life, death, and life development of others, but no one knows what its judgment criteria are.

This feeling of uncertainty made Ming Hai dare not take it lightly, not to mention that the arrangement the system made for Sawamura Eriri in this simulation was a bit too cruel. He tried his best to turn the tide but could only get an ending where he exchanged his life for her stable life.

[I understand your confusion, but please believe that every simulation of this system is tailor-made for you and your simulated object. This may not be the most perfect simulation, but it must be the most suitable simulation for you and your simulated object after comprehensive calculation. ]

If it were someone else, they might not believe the simulated statement. After all, anyone can say something that is so convincing - but Ming Hai remained silent and did not question it further.

There is no need for the system to lie. Even if the facts are not true, it can just admit its lies openly and then forcibly drag Minghai into the next simulation. Anyway, the initiative is always in its hands.

[As for why I tailored this simulation for Ms. Sawamura Eriri, it is naturally related to her real life situation. As you saw when you were her brother, her personality and interpersonal relationships are not much different from real life. ]

"Isn't it a bit too much of a bad taste to tailor-make such a tragic ending for a spoiled rich girl?"

[This is slander. If Eriri-san doesn't have the idea of ​​"wanting to experience a new life that cannot be experienced in real life", I will not respond to her.]

Oh?

Okay, okay, I finally got the point that Ming Hai has been bothering about.

That is the screening criteria for the objects of each simulation and the criteria for determining the direction of the story.

Although the system certainly would not elaborate further with an attitude of "I want to keep you in suspense and give you enough surprises", at least Ming Hai now knows the most important point.

"You mean Eriri is also dissatisfied with real life... that's why you came to her?"

[After all, even games require players to be well prepared before they can start. I will not force people who have no such intention to be involved in the simulation. After all, I am not a devil.]

Isn't this guy who always creates a death ending that makes girls heartbroken in every simulation really a devil?

[If it weren't for the fact that Miss Eriri herself was too lonely and wished for someone to accompany her - if this wish was too strong, she would not have been included in the consideration of this simulation. ]

"So Eriri really is a real person in real life, and not just someone created by the system."

[That's right, so if you want to rekindle your relationship with her after returning to reality, I'd be happy to see that.]

"Forget about someone I've never even met, but if I'm the only one who remembers everything, it's going to be troublesome no matter how I think about it."

Anyway, the simulation is over, and Ming Hai Toru doesn't care about anything other than getting the reward.

[You really don't care? Seeing you sacrifice your life at the end, I thought you must have felt sympathy for Miss Eriri. After all, apart from this ending, I also arranged other destinations for you, but you chose the one that would cost you the most.]

"Oh? Tell me about it."

Previously, due to the limitations of the system, Ming Hai, who only had one life, could not freely explore the various endings in the simulation. Since he could not experience it himself, it would be nice to let the system briefly explain the routes he did not choose.

[First, the ending where you and your sister Eriri do not discover the truth about the body swap. Eriri, whose soul is even weaker, will gradually lose her vitality and eventually die early due to various "accidents". You can live a smooth and happy life in this life, but you will get a low score because you lost the simulation object - this is the most common normal ending.]

[The following ending is not much different from the previous one, the only difference is that you discovered the truth of the matter, but you are still powerless to change the situation - so you can only watch your sister's soul being harvested and merged with you, and live a stable life. This is also one of the normal endings. ]

[Then there is the ending where you know how to turn the situation around, but out of self-preservation you still watch your sister die in front of you. Although this ending will allow you to develop a closer relationship with the other two girls, you will still lose the most important simulation object in the end - so this is a well-deserved bad ending.]

What? Living a carefree and happy life with two beautiful girls is also considered a bad ending!

Chapter 66 We are just netizens, you have crossed the line

[Seeing your eyes suddenly light up, I think I need to correct a misconception of yours - although your experience will definitely be very good in this bad end, because you deviate from the synchronization rate and the simulation object, you will not receive any rewards after the simulation ends.]

"But I have the memory of developing a deep relationship with two beautiful girls. No matter how you look at it, it's a sure win."

[But there is a saying that it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Can you really accept the reality that nothing happened between you and the other two girls? 】

"Doesn't that mean I not only make money but I don't have to take responsibility? The game about dating a beautiful girl is sold at such a high price, but I get to experience it in the first person perspective in high definition Blu-ray for free - great!"

[…Your train of thought does seem somewhat strange. You cannot be compared with other normal people.]

Love it, give more praise.

[But I have to say that the route you chose is indeed the most story-telling ending. Although I don't know whether your starting point was to obtain a better reward or to sincerely protect your sister in the simulation from disaster, everything has been settled. ]

The sound of the system gradually became weaker and weaker, and Minghai's consciousness, which was originally immersed in an unknown space, was slowly waking up.

[Please make good use of your rewards and become a qualified cash-recharger. Of course, there may be surprises waiting for you in the real world. ]

"Since you said so, System-kun...it doesn't seem like a good thing."

After the system left such an intriguing sentence, Ming Hai's originally groggy head gradually became clear.

“….”

When the curly-haired boy opened his eyes again, he saw the all-too-familiar ceiling.

He was in his small but well-equipped student apartment, sitting up from his bed with sleepy eyes.

Everything he saw was no longer the gorgeous decoration of the Sawamura family that he was accustomed to. Whether it was the cheap laptop that had just been turned off and had not yet completely cooled down, or the instant noodle box that was thrown aside and had not yet been picked up, they all reminded Minghai that this was the life that truly belonged to him.

"……call."

The boy didn't feel upset about anything. He stood up from the bed, stretched, sorted out the garbage that he had not had time to clean up before entering the simulation, and took it out of the house.

"It's hard to go from extravagance to frugality... I really feel that way now."

Ming Hai poured himself a glass of cold water and drank it. After escaping from the wealthy Sawamura family, he did need a little time to adapt to his own real life.

And you also need to think about your future life arrangements.

The rewards obtained from the third simulation should take effect the moment one exits the simulation. Tomorrow is a school day, so what specific changes will there be? To be honest, Ming Hai is indeed looking forward to it.

"And I have to say that the feeling of the meteorite hitting my head directly... It's really a once-in-a-lifetime experience."

Even though it was just a simulated feeling, Ming Hai still felt a lingering fear. However, this experience of brushing shoulders with death was indeed something he could not stop.

"Come to think of it, based on how reality unfolded after the simulation ended, I'll probably meet Eriri in the future."

Although he didn't know whether Eriri still remembered him, Minghai was ready to pass by her like a stranger.

As for what the system was curious about before, why he was so generous in this simulation, willing to sacrifice his own life in exchange for Eriri's normal life——

Ming Hai put the half-drunk cup of water on the table, looked at his short black curly hair again in the mirror in the bathroom, and then smiled with satisfaction, as if to say "it should be like this".

He returned to his computer desk and opened the rr14 game that had just been launched the night before.

Looking at the gray avatar of [Childhood Sweetheart Victory] in the friend list, the relaxed expression on his face gradually turned into a helpless bitter smile.

"Just returning a favor."

He originally thought that he and Eriri would meet each other in reality in a relatively normal way, but he didn't expect that their meeting in the simulation would be a "reunion" in another sense.

The system has said that Eriri's interpersonal relationships and personality are no different from those in reality, so the rr14 account that Minghai saw Eriri logged into at her computer desk should be the same as in reality.

The bald guy who looks bloated and unruly in the game is actually a rich girl who is known as the school beauty in real life. She is also very generous and helps Minghai introduce a master in the industry to help him show his talent - can this kind of development that only happens in third-rate and vulgar novels really happen in the real world.

"No, maybe the so-called reality I am in now is just another simulated world being observed by others..."

Before the idea became dangerous, Ming Hai stopped it in time.

If he continued to think in this divergent way, it would become a Truman show. He decided not to think deeply about the possibility of breaking the fourth wall, and instead focus his attention back on the ID in front of him named [Childhood Sweethearts Victory].

Honestly speaking, if he hadn't discovered that the netizen who had been fighting with him on the battlefield (doing evil) in the RR14 continent was actually Eriri, he might have really considered seriously how likely it was that he would survive alone.

But since the other person has gone to the trouble to help him so much, even Minghai would feel a little guilty if he let Minghai pretend to be confused and only care about his own feelings to complete the simulation.

Ming Hai felt that it was the right thing to do to hand over his perfect life to the kind people who had helped him.

However, many problems followed.

"How can I calmly team up with her to play games from now on?"

The brother who I usually chat with online turns out to be a beautiful girl of the same age, and in the simulated world, we staged a drama of lovers becoming siblings. No matter how I think about it, it's very sad - although this statement is a bit easy to be misunderstood.

"Never mind. Let the boat sink when it reaches the bridge."

If there is any secret to a worry-free and happy life, it is not to think too much and not to over-predict other people's positions and your own reactions.

Although living a life of taking one step at a time is not as safe and reliable as planning carefully, every step may be accompanied by unexpected surprises, right?

Then again, there was another problem that slightly troubled Ming Hai.

That is, Yukino Yukinoshita and Yamada Ryo, who both appeared in the third simulation - what kind of impact will this have on their real lives after the end of this simulation?

Chapter 67: Test

No matter how worried you are, you still have to go on with your daily life after the simulation ends.

Having escaped from the life of "Sawamura Spencer Toru", Toru Narumi had a sleepless night, tossing and turning until the early morning before he fell into a light sleep. The next day, he struggled to sit up from the bed with the shrill sound of the alarm.

He had gradually gotten used to being picked up by luxury cars to go to school in the simulation, and although he still missed those days of luxury, he had to adapt to his original lifestyle in the end - after all, the strength in the simulation was not the real strength.

The first school day after returning to reality was also Ming Hai's observation day.

The rewards obtained from the simulation are all items that can be directly reflected in all aspects of daily life, so this will definitely be very obvious.

So even though he dragged his tired body after a sleepless night, he was still woken up by the alarm clock on time, and hurried to sit in the teacher's seat before the first class in the morning started.

In the past, he would not be so "lucky". It was not uncommon for him to be late for class due to unexpected events such as traffic lights or traffic jams and be called to the teacher's office for a talk.

"If there is such a thing as the goddess of luck in this world, please let it be reflected in my lottery luck, not in such insignificant things."

The curly-haired boy was sitting in his seat, staring at the blackboard in the classroom, thinking idly while twirling the tip of his pen.

If I have to say, love is all empty talk - having financial support and strong personal abilities are the real path to enriching yourself.

But speaking of this...

Ming Hai raised his eyes slightly and looked at the math proof on the blackboard, which was originally complicated and tedious for him.

In the past, he would always feel so daunted by the questions that they were like reading a book without words, but now he can easily connect the questions together using very simple and easy-to-understand ideas. He can even calculate the answers to three- or four-digit operations in his mind very quickly.

"What an amazing learning ability! I wonder if I can become a genius of this level."

Not only mathematics - from science to liberal arts, from the little-known and awkward history to the balancing formulas in chemistry class, and even the color theory in art class that requires analogy to achieve enlightenment, Minghai found that he was miraculously able to master them proficiently and apply them to real life.

The knowledge inexplicably entered his mind in a way he had never expected, as if to prove that the reward term given by the system did work in real life.

Of course, Ming Hai's performance in physical education class was no less impressive. As a member of the Homecoming Club, he had no interest in physical training, let alone joining any sports clubs. However, he easily surpassed Ayaka from the tennis club and even Hayato Hayama in tennis matches, and easily won the championship in both training and long-distance running, which made Yukinoshita Yukino, who was doing physical training with him, look at him with a new eye.

"Ming Hai-kun, who has never been fond of sports and would rather be lazy than do extra work, can actually easily surpass most of his classmates in physical education class and win the favor of the teacher - is there any secret to his training?"

During the break in the physical education class, the girl with her shiny black hair tied into a ponytail had just finished running 800 meters. Her fair and delicate face was dotted with pink spots, and her skin was covered with fine beads of sweat.

"I'm just an ordinary high school boy who happened to be passing by."
