The night passed without a word.
When Kitahara Makoto opened his eyes again, the sky outside had already brightened.
"Last night… Ah, I remember."
The blonde glasses girl had been in the Otherworld for so long that drinking water was a problem, let alone taking a bath. When she walked into the bathroom last night and saw the shower and hot water, she was like a traveler lost in the desert seeing a clear spring. She couldn't help it, absolutely couldn't help it. Not only did she bathe, but she also washed her hair.
Girls, if they don't wash their hair, it's fine, but once they wash it, who knows how much time it takes.
Kitahara Makoto sat on the sofa last night, initially playing on his phone and waiting, but Nijika and cousin hadn't come out yet, and he had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
"Whew…"
Kitahara Makoto exhaled lightly, sat up, and found a thin blanket covering him at some point. He picked up his phone, which was placed nearby, and it was already past six and almost seven in the morning.
He stood up and looked around. The living room was spotless. The Beast Eared Girl's leftover cake packaging from yesterday was gone, and there was a bag of sorted trash in the kitchen.
The drum washing machine was open to the air, and the clothes inside were already hung out to dry.
In a corner not far away, a mosquito coil was still burning, emitting wisps of smoke.
"…This house would surely be ruined without Nijika-senpai."
Kitahara Makoto sighed and walked towards the bathroom.
"I forgot to take a bath last night, so I'll do it now…"
After taking a bath, Kitahara Makoto felt completely refreshed.
He had just squeezed out toothpaste and was about to brush his teeth when suddenly, there were thudding footsteps from the second floor. A Blonde Side Ponytail girl wearing a men's shirt stumbled downstairs, still half-asleep.
"Nijika-senpai, good morning."
Kitahara Makoto looked up and greeted her.
"Mm, good morning…"
Ijichi Nijika raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned, then walked into the Toilet and stood shoulder to shoulder with Kitahara Makoto, brushing her teeth together.
Kitahara Makoto asked curiously:
"Nijika-senpai, what time did you go to bed last night?"
"Mm…" Ijichi Nijika, probably just having woken up, her brain not yet fully booted, was dazed for a moment before saying indistinctly, "Around three o'clock, I guess."
Kitahara Makoto said speechlessly:
"You went to bed at three o'clock, why are you getting up so early?"
Ijichi Nijika replied groggily: "To prepare breakfast. Everyone still has to go to school today…"
Sleeping so late, getting up so early, and still not forgetting to prepare breakfast for everyone, just how strong is your sense of responsibility!
"Don't prepare breakfast," Kitahara Makoto said decisively. "There's still milk in the refrigerator, and I'll go buy bread later. Bread and milk are enough for breakfast. Go back to sleep for a bit."
Ijichi Nijika hesitated: "But…"
Kitahara Makoto said unequivocally:
"No buts, it's settled."
"Th-then, alright…"
Ijichi Nijika finally agreed.
Done with washing up.
Nijika was about to go back to her room for another nap when she accidentally dropped her toothbrush on the floor.
"Oh, I dropped my toothbrush…"
When something falls, Ijichi Nijika naturally bends down to pick it up.
Kitahara Makoto instinctively looked over and immediately felt a rush of heat.
He lived alone, so he naturally wouldn't have any girls' pajamas. Therefore, last night, the girls could only make do with Kitahara Makoto's shirts as sleepwear.
At this moment, Ijichi Nijika was wearing an oversized white men's shirt.
When she stood straight, it wasn't a problem; Nijika-senpai wasn't tall, and the shirt hem completely covered her thighs. But once she bent down, the shirt naturally fell, and the girl's fair, slender legs, and pink panties were immediately exposed.
Seemingly noticing Kitahara Makoto's gaze, Ijichi Nijika quickly picked up the toothbrush, covered her buttocks, and quickly straightened up, her pretty face flushed as she glared at him:
"Pervert… Eh?"
Ijichi Nijika suddenly widened her eyes, and the shyness on her pretty face disappeared, replaced by a hint of worry:
"Kitahara-kun, your eyes… why are they red again?"
"Hmm?"
Kitahara Makoto turned to look at himself in the mirror and indeed found a strange red tinge in his eyes again.
"The color is exactly the same as yesterday…" Ijichi Nijika bit her lower lip. "Could it be that the hidden danger hasn't been resolved yet?"
"I do feel something is off with my body," Kitahara Makoto said softly. "Nijika-senpai, don't worry, let's ask the answer book."
Ijichi Nijika quickly nodded: "Ask quickly."
"…"
The two came to the living room.
Kitahara Makoto picked up the answer book and asked about his condition.
Rustle, rustle.
The answer book quickly provided an answer:
[The evil aura has not been eliminated, the balance is broken, and evil is eroding]
Ijichi Nijika furrowed her delicate brows, took the answer book, and placed her hand on the cover:
"How can the hidden danger be completely eliminated?"
Rustle, rustle.
The answer book turned to another page.
[Slap, slap——]
"Eh eh eh eh eh?!"
Looking at the answer in the book, Ijichi Nijika's eyes widened in disbelief, and her pretty face quickly flushed.
Kitahara Makoto also hadn't expected the answer book to suggest a solution involving bedroom activities. He turned to Nijika, his tone strange:
"Nijika-senpai, the answer given in the book must be useful…"
Ijichi Nijika's pretty face was flushed. She covered her chest and took half a step back, saying shyly:
"Don't even think about that!"
Kissing is already the limit, and now you want to go further… Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
"Since the hidden danger cannot be resolved once and for all, then it can only be temporarily alleviated and suppressed," Kitahara Makoto stepped forward, not expecting Nijika to agree, but collecting interest was certainly not a problem. "Surely Nijika-senpai won't shirk this responsibility, right?"
His future self really wouldn't trick him.
Since there was a hidden danger in his body, with Nijika's personality, she would definitely take responsibility. There would be plenty of opportunities to tease her in the future…
His harem might actually be able to start!
"W-wait a minute…"
Ijichi Nijika's heart pounded wildly. She naturally knew how to alleviate the suppression, which was nothing more than kissing him like yesterday. Her gaze drifted:
"Y-you're fine now, it's just that your eyes are red…"
"My eyes are red, and you say I'm fine?" Kitahara Makoto said self-righteously, "There's no principle of not treating minor illnesses and delaying until they become serious, right?"
"…"
Ijichi Nijika was speechless.
Because it was indeed very reasonable.
Kitahara Makoto leaned down towards Nijika, whispering: "Nijika-senpai, you don't want anything bad to happen to me, do you?"
"…"
Seeing Kitahara Makoto reveal his 'wolfish ambitions', Ijichi Nijika instinctively wanted to dodge, but the word 'responsibility' made her hesitate.
The cause of the incident was to find Rinko, and Kitahara-kun was only corroded by evil because of her. It was indeed a responsibility she could not escape…
Seeing that Nijika neither dodged nor pushed him away, Kitahara Makoto knew he had succeeded in gaining control.
So, without further ado, he simply lowered his head and kissed her directly.
Repeated back and forth?
Such a thing absolutely did not exist!
