Chapter 480: Ren: Utaha, I'll Help You Recognize Your True Feelings!
Why was her heart so uneasy? Utaha recalled a question Ren had asked her. "Are you in love?"
She was not in love, yet she had incorporated emotions into her writing that he recognized. In reality, she had merely described the feelings she experienced when thinking of him. The emotions were her own.
As she gradually understood his true self, she became uncontrollably drawn to him, even using this almost self-abasing method to trade for Angel abilities. It was only because she didn't want to become someone from a different world, unable to intersect with him.
Do I like him? She had some clarity. However, what frustrated her was that he had too many women.
Just as she stood there in a daze, she suddenly felt a pair of warm arms embrace her from behind. A warm breeze wafted by her ear. "Your thoughts are truly complex."
Her body instantly stiffened. She turned her head and saw Ren. She was being embraced by him! And in this situation, completely naked!
"You, you, you, wha—!" For a moment, she couldn't even speak properly.
"I've been sensing it for a long time. Your emotions are too chaotic."
"!!!" What did he mean?
"You really forgot. As my Redemption Angel, I can hear all your thoughts clearly."
It was only after his reminder that she recalled. He had indeed said there was such a strange setting. Doesn't that mean everything I just thought was heard?
"Not just then, but now too."
"!!!" "Th-that, please don't misunderstand! I wasn't thinking anything!" she responded in a panic, and began to think of all sorts of food to confuse his perception.
"Pfft." This truly amused him.
"What are you laughing at?!"
"At your naivety." Before she could retort, he changed the subject. "Be my girlfriend."
"Huh???" Such abrupt words left her dumbfounded. One second he was laughing, the next it was a confession?
"You look very conflicted, so why don't I say it?" He was always proactive.
Realizing her thoughts were truly being read, she wanted to turn around and face him. But turning around at such a close distance… wouldn't that be… completely open?
"If you have anything you want to ask, feel free to ask."
"What… do you like about me?" A very common question, yet difficult to answer.
But Ren was an honest man. "I like that your face is very beautiful, your figure is very good, and you look very delicious. Is that an acceptable answer?"
"???" Even with her back to him, she wanted to slap him. Isn't this just a simple pervert? But more importantly, through his touch, she could feel his sincere and firm affection.
Her cheeks were so red they looked like they would bleed. "Pervert! Scumbag! Stud!"
"Mmm-hmm, your insults are very authentic." He accepted them all.
"You…" This indifferent attitude made her feel like she was punching cotton. Her sharp tongue seemed to have never worked on him.
"However, besides that, there's one more thing I like about you."
"What?"
"You're very real."
"What does that count as?! Is that also a good point?"
"Of course. A real beautiful girl, like she walked out of a two-dimensional world. Isn't that the biggest advantage?"
"Isn't that still a pervert's comment?!" The exasperated Utaha raised both hands, grabbed his hair, and pulled. As she looked up, her eyes met his.
His eyes were burning with fervor. "Although I only like Kasumigaoka Utaha, I can accept everything about her—your body, your personality, your sharp tongue, or your indignation. Can you give me an answer, Utaha?"
Her clear eyes melted in his words. She pouted. "You scumbag, you're too practiced. Saying things that make innocent girls' hearts flutter. No wonder you have so many girlfriends."
Sensing the change in her tone, he smugly curled his lips. "Then what about you? Are you an innocent girl?"
"Heh, I'm not some innocent girl who's so easily fooled." She suddenly turned around with force, her eyes showing a faint purple glow, full of provocation. Her hand submerged, moving toward his hardened length between them. "You'll have to be careful from now on."
He raised an eyebrow, not only because of her naked body pressing against him, but also because of her warning. "Careful?"
"Careful not to be so captivated by me that you lose your appetite and have to abandon everyone else." At that moment, the passion in her eyes was like enchanting peach blossoms. He already understood her answer.
"Then I really want to see how you'll captivate me," he said, pulling her flush against him and capturing her lips. Her hands guided him inside her, and she gasped into his mouth as he filled her, the hot spring water swirling around them.
