"Wow, Eri Kashiwagi-sensei released a new work!"
In the not-so-large rental apartment, a scantily clad girl with long, silver-white hair suddenly saw a notification from the author she followed and shouted excitedly into her phone.
Soon, a beautiful young woman, also scantily clad but significantly more mature in figure and appearance than the girl, walked in when she heard the news.
"Let me see how much this industry rising star has improved recently?"
The young woman opened her computer and logged onto the doujinshi website. Her author name was clearly displayed in the upper right corner: Eromanga Sensei!
"I want to see too!" The silver-white-haired girl, Sagiri Izumi, a severe hikikomori and currently her mother's assistant, had excitement radiating from her light blue eyes. It was clear she was a loyal fan of Eri Kashiwagi!
Mrs. Izumi, the doujinshi illustrator with the pen name Eromanga Sensei, had recently changed her name to Izumi. Her remarried husband had unfortunately passed away in a monster disaster, and she was currently raising her daughter alone.
As an enthusiast of sensual illustrations and doujinshi, Mrs. Izumi frequently searched the website for spiritual sustenance. Her daughter, Sagiri, also followed her down this path. The artist the mother and daughter liked most recently was Eri Kashiwagi!
Impatiently, Mrs. Izumi clicked on Eri Kashiwagi's profile picture.
"Oh, why are there only a few images?" Mrs. Izumi was a little dissatisfied. Authors in the industry were getting lazier lately. Weekly updates were one thing, but each update was so short! How could this possibly satisfy us readers!
Muttering, Mrs. Izumi clicked on the large images. Her beautiful eyes suddenly widened considerably.
"Hiss!"
The composition was highly impactful! The girl's slender, long, yet slightly plump, pale feet, encased in long black stockings, were the epitome of temptation! The blush on her face was just right, and her words, while slightly stubborn, highlighted her tsundere nature.
Although the composition perfectly emphasized the dominance of the Big Car (the older character), every detail in the image suggested the Little Horse (the younger character) was the true master!
The few images fully demonstrated the girl's feet, transitioning from clumsy to agile. The stark contrast between black and white was full of a beautiful sense of defilement!
Looking through the images, even Mrs. Izumi, who had read countless doujinshi, felt her face flush slightly. There was no need to mention Sagiri, who was less experienced. Her fair, innocent face was practically blood-red. The content wasn't overly explicit, yet it left her mouth dry.
"Did Eri Kashiwagi-sensei transition recently?"
"She started drawing shota types…"
"But the progress is truly terrifying!" Mrs. Izumi sighed in admiration. In the past, Eri Kashiwagi's doujinshi were famous for their delicate style and exquisite characters. But compared to her current transitional work, they weren't even on the same level.
"She was already a genius, and yet she's still managed to level up!" Mrs. Izumi even felt like asking her how she managed to improve so much in such a short time. If she could get her daughter to learn from her, that would be even better! She looked at Sagiri, whose eyes were filled with admiration and a hint of daze as she gazed at the screen, and thought to herself.
"I'll ask the website editor in a couple of days to see if I can get in touch with Eri Kashiwagi…"
.....
Asa hadn't expected Eriri's feet to be so clumsy. He stayed in the Art Club for quite a while, only leaving right before the afternoon classes started. Her fingers were so flexible, though.
"Looks like she needs more practice in the future." After all, practice makes perfect.
However, what Asa hadn't expected was that Eriri was truly overflowing with inspiration after they finished. The things she drew randomly were all aesthetically pleasing. Asa initially thought Eriri was just using the excuse of finding inspiration on him. He didn't expect it to actually work!
"Hmph, pretty good, right?" Eriri put her hands on her hips and said proudly. "So you have to cooperate with me in the future, or my inspiration will dry up quickly!" Her face was slightly flushed, and her tone was airy, but her eyes were very serious.
With that, her eyes inadvertently landed on Asa's lips again. Her small, pink tongue subtly poked out and licked her cherry lips. Eriri pulled Asa close.
"Is Eriri-nee's inspiration all used up again?" Asa tilted his head and looked at the blushing girl in front of him.
Eriri didn't dare to look Asa in the eye. "Hmph, it's all because I was demonstrating for you just now; my inspiration ran out all at once…"
"I need to properly replenish it before class," Eriri muttered to herself, closing her hazy eyes, and lowered her head, searching.
....
Service Club.
In the afternoon, Yukino sighed heavily with relief when she saw Asa again after a full day and night apart. For the next period of time, she held Asa in her arms and read a book. Asa lay securely in her soft embrace, which was unfortunately without a head pillow. He pulled out a manuscript and started reading.
He had found it at Eriri's place. If he wasn't mistaken, it must have been dropped by Utaha at noon. Eriri had accidentally picked up Utaha's manuscript and brought it back to the Art Club.
Asa was looking at what seemed to be the draft for Koisuru Metronome. It looked like a rough first draft, with many parts needing work. He just didn't know which volume's draft it was...
The little shota was focused on the manuscript, unaware that Yukino, who was holding him, was also secretly reading it. At first, she just wanted to see what Asa was reading. She was surprised by what she saw!
"This looks like a romance novel!"
"Could Asa-kun be starting to develop romantic awareness…" Yukino's heart trembled slightly. She started to feel strangely excited, not knowing what she was thinking.
Come to think of it, she had occasionally heard her classmates say that children nowadays were maturing much faster. Some were just in elementary school but were already veterans of several relationships.
"Asa-kun is also mature far beyond his age…" Yukino thought.
But soon, she noticed something subtle. "Asa-kun only has one sheet of paper. The content looks like a romance novel, but it's handwritten…"
"Could it be… a love letter?!" Yukino's gaze instantly hardened. The handwriting was graceful yet elegant, clearly written by a woman. At the very least, an elementary school girl couldn't possibly have such a refined script!
"Has Asa-kun been targeted by some girl… no, possibly an adult woman?" Yukino's expression immediately became tense when she thought of this. Asa-kun's charm was fully demonstrated at the school festival yesterday. Both girls and young women were drawn to him endlessly.
"I need to keep a close eye on any strange women who appear around Asa-kun recently!" A sharp glint flashed in Yukino's beautiful eyes as she thought this secretly.
Asa quickly finished reading the single manuscript page. Speaking of which, this was the first time he had read the actual text of Koisuru Metronome, a book famous in his previous life. It was truly… obviously written by someone who has never been in love!
"Yukino-nee, there's a book I want to read. Let's go to the library." Asa turned his head to Yukino and suggested.
"Alright."
Yukino first took Asa to the Shuchi'in library. Unfortunately, Koisuru Metronome didn't seem to have taken off yet; they couldn't find the book in the Shuchi'in library. They then went to the city library, not far from Shuchi'in, where Asa finally found Koisuru Metronome tucked away on a corner shelf of the light novel section.
"So only the first volume has been published, huh." Asa found an empty seat and sat down, opening the book he had been quite curious about in his previous life…
Yukino also picked out a book and sat next to Asa, but her gaze remained focused on the book in Asa's hands. "Koisuru Metronome… Why would Asa-kun be interested in a book like this? Could it be…" Yukino had a bad feeling.
He read quickly. The main reason was that the first volume of Koisuru Metronome was genuinely average. The writing was beautiful, but it failed to capture the awkwardness, ambiguity, and excitement of falling in love.
As Asa was reading, he suddenly realized the light had dimmed, as if something was blocking it. Concentrating on the book, Asa instinctively reached out and pushed the huge object blocking his view.
His hand met the slippery softness of a silk fabric.
"… Mm~" An uncontrollable moan suddenly rang out.
Asa froze and slowly looked up. It was then that he realized a girl in a high-cut Bunny Girl costume was sitting casually on his table. Her impossibly long legs, encased in slippery black stockings, had been playfully twitching, but now they were tightly pressed together. What he had touched just now was her rear.
Asa was dumbfounded. Was this girl truly so lacking in boundary awareness? Strutting around in such a sexy outfit right in front of him. Infuriating! Doesn't a little shota count as a man?! Asa looked at the Bunny Girl in the library and vaguely knew her identity.
"Mai Sakurajima…"
The effect of the Lewd Hand touching that spot was not to be underestimated. It took a full minute for Mai to control her slightly trembling body. A warm breath escaped her red lips. She turned around, both shy and surprised, and met a pair of innocent eyes.
Looking at the extremely handsome little face, the Bunny Girl's delicate body trembled slightly. The pleasure she had just felt lingered in her mind. She jumped off the table, her face crimson, her beautiful eyes hazy as she looked at the little shota, and her cherry lips opened.
"Can… you see me?"
The little shota blinked at her and said softly, "How could I not see an oneesan dressed so… scandalously?" With that, the little shota's eyes fell to the table in front of him, where a damp mark was visible, and he mumbled, "Although she's dressed very boldly, she's surprisingly easily overwhelmed…"
Mai was slightly stunned. She followed the little shota's gaze to the table and instantly gasped.
"So young, yet so brazen!" She was a high-school senior, an oneesan, and yet she was teased by a little shota… And worst of all, she was mocked! Mai felt great shame followed by indignation.
At this moment, Yukino looked at Asa in surprise. "Asa-kun, who are you talking to?"
Mai was curious about how the little shota would respond. However, she heard him pause, then say directly, "No one, Yukino-nee. You must have misheard."
Mai was stunned by this. Then, a flush of annoyance covered her face. Being completely ignored when he clearly saw her was far more outrageous than being invisible! Mai looked at the little shota, the irresistible, strange sensation still swirling in her heart. It made her feel an urge to immediately pull the little shota into her arms and shower him with affection.
"So, he pretends he can't see me, huh…" Mai let out a soft huff. She half-squatted in front of the little shota and extended her pair of flawless, pale hands, beginning to tickle him.
Asa was slightly surprised, looking at the suddenly playful Mai. At first, Asa pretended not to notice. Mai became even more excessive, determined to elicit a reaction from Asa. As the time she spent touching Asa increased, Mai's beautiful eyes grew more and more hazy. The Bunny Girl that no one could see became increasingly brazen.
Asa slowly took a deep breath.
Alright, alright, that's how you want to play!
