Skillfully opening the door to Ito's house with a key, Aoi greeted Ito, who was cooking, with Nanami. Then, she asked Rika to help Ito in the kitchen, while she took Nanami to Mashiro's room.
Walking into Mashiro's room, Aoi's mouth twitched... The luggage she had painstakingly organized for Mashiro yesterday was now a complete mess, like a junkyard.
Underwear, socks, and bras were strewn everywhere, and... even though all your luggage has arrived, why are you still wearing his shirt!?
"Nanami, this is Shiina Mashiro, a world-class oil painter, but now she wants to draw manga." Aoi paused. "Mashiro, this is Aoyama Nanami, my classmate, and she'll be your classmate too from now on."
Mashiro nodded, then looked at Aoi in confusion, wondering why she brought Nanami to see her.
"It's like this, he's currently your model, right? I was thinking... do you need a female model? You can hire a girl as cute as Nanami to be your model for a very cheap price."
Mashiro stared at Nanami for a while, then slowly nodded.
"Okay."
Upstairs, Aoi easily convinced Mashiro to hire Nanami as her model. The happy Nanami and Aoi worked together to tidy up Mashiro's messy room.
Meanwhile, in the kitchen downstairs, Rika also told Ito about Aoi's idea of having Nanami model for Mashiro.
Ito had an impression of Nanami. She wasn't a genius like Mashiro, but a very hardworking and cute girl who pursued her dreams.
Ito was very supportive of her earning money through the relatively easy method of modeling for Mashiro, so that she wouldn't be affected by heavy part-time jobs and could focus on her studies.
However... the model Mashiro needed wasn't an ordinary model, not even an ordinary nude model, but one who had to pose in embarrassing positions from H-anime or doujinshi, and even act out scenes for real.
He had told Mashiro not to tell Aoi and Rika about what happened between him and Kamino Megumi... The fact that he had Mashiro give him oral sex and ejaculated on her face on the very first day of their 'modeling' couldn't be explained away as just satisfying Aoi's sexual interests. Ito hadn't yet figured out how to let Aoi know in a way that would maximize her pleasure from being cuckolded.
Although Ito also wanted to help Nanami earn money and make things easier for her, he didn't know if Nanami would be able to accept such a modeling job if she knew the truth.
Before Ito could think too much, Aoi and Nanami came downstairs to the living room. Then, just like before when she introduced girls to Ito, Aoi took over Ito's cooking duties and told him to entertain the guest.
After tying the apron on Aoi and washing the oil from his hands, Ito went to the living room and saw Nanami sitting there, looking a bit nervous.
"Aoyama-san," Ito said with a gentle smile, sitting next to Nanami. "Did Mashiro agree to have you as her model?"
"Yes, Shiina-san has agreed, starting tonight! Although I'm a bit shy... I'll try my best!" Nanami pursed her lips and gave a shy, faint smile, blinking as she looked at Ito.
She used to hear Aoi praise her boyfriend every day when they worked together, and today she finally met him.
Just as Aoi said, he was very handsome and had a good physique... No wonder he could be Mashiro's model.
And he had a good personality and could cook... She was really envious.
Nanami actually wanted to try a romance like those in anime or manga, but... she had no time! How could she talk about romance when she hadn't even earned enough money!?
"Speaking of which, you're my senior now, Senior! You can just call me Nanami!" Nanami paused, then blinked curiously. "Senior, are there any tricks to being a model?"
"Uh..." Ito hesitated, then tentatively asked, "Nanami, do you know what Mashiro's 'model' means?"
"Eh... yes, I know, Aoi already told me. It's like, just like Senior, the kind of... no-clothes model."
Hmm?
Ito frowned, realizing things were not simple.
Aoi told her? How did Aoi know!?
Because Mashiro was being taken care of by Ito, and Mashiro would go back to her room to paint after eating, Aoi and Mashiro didn't actually have much contact. Ito was also present when they did interact.
Even if Mashiro forgot that he had told her not to tell Aoi and Rika, Mashiro wouldn't have had the opportunity.
Something was wrong... Very, very wrong.
How did Aoi know? At most, she would know that he was modeling for Mashiro, but under normal circumstances, how could she possibly associate it with nude modeling?
When he modeled for Mashiro, he always kept the windows tightly closed and the curtains drawn. Besides, his room was opposite Rika's room, not Aoi's room.
Even if Rika found out, she would come to discuss it with him, not tell Aoi directly.
Did she install cameras in his room? Aoi didn't seem like such a possessive person either.
Something's wrong, something's wrong, something's wrong.
Ito then thought about the recent changes in his body... There were too many things that were wrong.
Being discovered by Aoi was a minor issue; the important thing was the changes in Ito's own body.
He had gotten longer and thicker, the amount he ejaculated each time was several times that of an ordinary person, and even his strength and energy were much better than before, as if he had unlocked a genetic lock in a novel...
Hmm!?
Speaking of genetic locks, Ito remembered the system-flow novels he had read in his previous life, like sign-in systems or quest systems, where the protagonist would become stronger after receiving rewards.
Now, he felt as if he had been suddenly strengthened by a system.
As a transmigrator, Ito had also thought about getting a system in the past, but for more than twenty years, he had never heard the system binding prompt sound in his mind.
Ito combined the recent abnormal events, from Aoi's abnormality to his own body's abnormality...
Although Ito wasn't a novelist, a manga artist was also an author.
With the hint, Ito easily connected the dots. Could it be that the system wasn't with him, but with Aoi!?
She knew everything Mashiro and he did through the system, she strengthened his body through the system, and even... even her sexual interests might be system quests!?
Otherwise, Aoi couldn't have suddenly transformed from a small jealous pot to a full-blown cuckolding chieftain of Thunder Bluff.
Ito felt his heart pounding.
Anyway... he needed to find an opportunity to test her out.
He would find an opportunity to do something related to reverse-cuckolding that she absolutely couldn't know about.
Speaking of which... Rika had said on the first day Mashiro moved in that Aoi had masturbated in the next room by fantasizing about Mashiro cuckolding her as material.
And that night, she was also very 'considerate' and didn't disturb him and Mashiro... as if she knew he had ejaculated into Mashiro's mouth in the next room!
Normally, she absolutely couldn't have known.
If that's the case... to be safe, he might as well secretly go to a hotel with Mashiro for 'material' without telling Aoi, and then ask Rika to help observe.
If Aoi could remotely guess what he was doing with Mashiro and even masturbate at the same time... then this was 99% a system, no doubt!
The remaining 1% was that Aoi had installed tracking and listening devices on him.
However, Aoi didn't seem like such a yandere person, so this 1% could be ignored.
Or, Ito could do several more experiments to verify, going to different places in different clothes each time, which would eliminate that 1%.
"Senior?"
Nanami looked at Ito, who had suddenly become serious, in confusion.
"No, nothing." Ito took a deep breath and temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart.
"By the way, Nanami, what are you earning money for?"
Ito chatted with Nanami to change the subject. Soon, Aoi and Rika came out of the kitchen with the dishes.
Ito stood up and pointed in the direction of the restroom.
"The restroom is over there, Nanami. Go wash your hands. I'll go get Mashiro."
After bringing Mashiro down from her room, taking her to the restroom to wash her hands, and helping her dry them with a towel, Ito brought Mashiro to sit at the dining table.
The five of them chatted and ate. Not long after finishing their meal, Aoi seemed a bit impatient.
"Nanami and I will clean up the kitchen, you two go accompany Mashiro while she paints. After all, Mashiro paid for it," Aoi urged them with a smile to return to the room with Mashiro.
Something is definitely wrong!
"Okay, then we'll go up first."
As Ito walked upstairs and out of Aoi's sight, Ito took out his phone and sent a message to Nanami.
"Later, can you help me see if Aoi secretly masturbates?"
