Under the persistent persuasion of Misaki, Rin Ito, and Marin, Orihe also agreed to cosplay Sagiri's character to help her leave the house. If there were three people, Mashiro couldn't be left out either; even if she personally didn't mind, they couldn't just abandon her.
Bidding farewell to the trio, Rin Ito returned home to find Mashiro had already finished dinner and was drawing. Her progress was much faster than Sagiri's. She had already revised her storyboards and character designs countless times, and was now in the fine-tuning stage. Given Mashiro's skill, Rin Ito estimated she would need a maximum of two more days once the storyboards and character designs were finalized.
Rin Ito took a picture of one of the specific character designs and sent it to Orihe.
Rin Ito: [Mashiro is still tweaking the details, but the general design is set. Try to buy pre-made costumes if possible; don't overwork yourself.]
Three COSPLAY outfits in two weeks... considering Orihe was using her spare time, Rin Ito estimated she could only make one set by hand, not using pre-made parts.
Orihe: [It's fine! I have some friends who make COSPLAY costumes. I've already asked them for help.]
Rin Ito chatted with Orihe in Mashiro's room for a while. Just as Rin Ito was about to leave the room, the System Daughter's voice sounded in his mind.
[Daddy, there should be a new APP on your phone now.]
Hmm? What is it? Is it a hypnosis APP?
Rin Ito casually swiped around and saw something that looked like a hypnosis APP with a question mark icon.
[That's right, that's it! Open it quickly, Daddy.]
Rin Ito tapped the software, and a 2D girl looking nine-tenths like Kaede immediately appeared on Rin Ito's phone screen. When he rubbed her with his thumb, the 2D girl shyly pulled something out from under her skirt and threw it at Rin Ito. Subsequently, the phone interface changed to a simplified System interface, similar to the one he had seen before.
In the APP, Rin Ito could see the physical data, body status, and even the remaining capacity of the little baby's room for Kaede and the other girls who had cuckolded him.
In addition, there was the quest completion status and a breakdown of Kaede's Nurturing Points consumption, such as the nurturing/enhancement she gave Rin Ito, and the sensitivity increase she gave Suzu... I didn't realize Kaede had also increased Mashiro and Nanami's sensitivity.
[These are not the most important features, Daddy. The most important feature is that you can talk to me through this APP now!]
The 2D girl, like a desktop pet, appeared on the phone screen, chest puffed out, her smug gaze seeming to penetrate the screen.
Amazing. Rin Ito praised with a smile.
She and the System were not entirely one entity. If the System was likened to a computer, she was the person sitting in front of the computer, using it. She was still exploring the System herself. Previously, she could only issue quests to Kaede to guide Kaede to awaken her fetish. Now, she had essentially learned how to use the "computer," which meant Rin Ito could chat with the System Daughter even when Kaede was at school.
"Is this 2D character what you look like?" Rin Ito asked curiously.
[No, I drew this 2D character based on Mommy's appearance.]
Using Kaede's appearance to talk to Rin Ito... That's a form of cuckoldry in itself, isn't it?
Returning to his room, Rin Ito chatted with his Daughter while browsing the APP. Rin Ito noticed that Kaede had recently exchanged points for a collar. This wasn't just any ordinary collar.
"This is a gift Mommy is preparing to give to Aunt Kaho. Mommy plans to give it to Aunt Kaho tomorrow and then have Daddy put it on Aunt Kaho."
Tomorrow was the weekend. On Monday, both Suzu and the System Daughter had told Rin Ito that Kaede had agreed to let Kaho visit him over the weekend. As for why a collar... Kaede had told Kaho that "the human position is gone, but the pet position is still available."
However, Mashiro had also mentioned on Monday that Eriri Sawamura was coming over the weekend... Interesting.
Time quickly moved to the next day, Saturday. Early in the morning, Kaho and Shion secretly arrived at Kaede and Suzu's house entrance. After reconciling with Kaede on Monday, Kaho had arranged to visit over the weekend. As for what they would do... naturally, it was Kaho herself who would be played with, or rather, Kaho herself wanted to be played with.
Before Kaho could ring the doorbell, Shion spoke, sounding a bit exasperated.
"Miss Kaho, as the future heir of the Enjouji family, are you really going to be their pet?"
"Well... Kaede said there was no more room for humans at her house... so... so there's nothing I can do." Kaho said, looking down and fidgeting shyly. "It can't be helped."
She's a lost cause. My pig mistress is a lost cause.
"Then please don't count me in, Pig Mistress. I am a person, not a pig." Although Shion found the experience enjoyable when she was turned into a fountain, she had no interest in being a pig.
"Ugh... I know." Kaho nodded with a look of shy anticipation, then pressed the doorbell. The current Kaho was a completely different person from her usual arrogant demeanor at school.
A moment later, the door opened, and Kaede, wearing a short-sleeved top and shorts that reached her thigh, appeared at the entrance. Kaede smiled warmly and invited the two into the living room, where Suzu, dressed identically to Kaede, was playing on her phone. The two sisters exchanged a look, then directed their gaze at Kaho... although they had gotten their revenge last week, it had taken a lot out of both Kaede and Suzu.
This time... Kaede and Suzu had a plan. Although Kaede wouldn't participate to maintain her last shred of dignity in front of Rin Ito, Suzu had absolutely no problem! Suzu had been taken by Rin Ito on Kaede's behalf before, so participating in the party on Kaede's behalf was no issue! In ancient times, Mulan joined the army for her father; today, Suzu joins the party for her sister! No problem!
But before they left, Kaede had a gift for Kaho.
"Um... Kaho, you've secretly helped me all this time, so I prepared a gift for you."
"A gift!?" Kaho's eyes sparkled. The people surrounding Kaho often gave her gifts, but... this was the first time she had received a gift from a friend!
Under Kaho's expectant gaze, Kaede smiled wickedly and handed a wrapped gift to Kaho. Seeing Kaede's expression, Shion knew she was up to no good, but... What can you do when your mistress is a pig?
"Don't unwrap it. Just hand it directly to him later and let him put it on you. Don't tell him it was from me, okay?"
"No problem, thank you so much!!!"
Although she didn't know what was in the box... A gift from a friend must be fine!
Taking the gift, Kaho and Shion arrived at Rin Ito's doorstep. Suzu didn't go with them, as in Kaede's view, Rin Ito didn't know that she and Suzu had been hiding in the closet last weekend. Suzu, the sister who was throwing the party on her behalf, would simply climb through the window once the party started.
Kaho pressed the doorbell.
"Coming... Huh? Kaho and Shion? What are you two doing here?"
Rin Ito opened the door and feigned surprise. In reality, both Suzu and the System Daughter had already informed him that Kaho was coming today. Rin Ito spoke righteously, pretending to be completely clueless.
"What are you doing here!? You're not welcome."
Seeing Rin Ito's reaction, Kaho was stunned and started to panic... Oh no, oh no, oh no. It was only now that Kaho realized she had considered Kaede's attitude but forgotten about Rin Ito's. From Kaho's perspective, she had just tricked Rin Ito last week by putting computer parts in his water at the hotel. As Kaede's boyfriend, Rin Ito's attitude was perfectly normal.
"Miss Kaho is here to apologize and request your forgiveness," Shion said, rushing to explain on Kaho's behalf, seeing Kaho's panic. "This is a gift from Miss Kaho."
"A gift?"
Rin Ito feigned surprise and ripped open the ribbon tied around the gift box. Inside the box was a collar adorned with black lace and a gem, and a slender metal chain—exactly like the icon he had seen in the APP yesterday.
"Sending me a collar!?"
Rin Ito pretended to be angry. Kaho instinctively wanted to explain that Kaede said his house only had room for pets.
But Shion, who knew Kaho intimately, quickly spoke up on Kaho's behalf.
"Please don't misunderstand. My pig mistress enjoyed herself immensely with you last week. As an apology for last week, my pig mistress wants you to put the collar on her. She is fine with you treating her like a pig or a dog."
"Shion!!!"
Kaho was blushing profusely... Even if that was true, she didn't have to say it so bluntly!
"Fine, no problem, it's perfect."
Rin Ito took the collar and played with it in his hand... The collar Kaede had specially exchanged Nurturing Points for in the System was no ordinary collar. Although it looked like a simple collar, it was actually a 7,000-point life-taker!
Through the collar, Kaede could view Kaho's real-time data, such as her mood, heart rate, sensitivity, climax time, frequency, intensity, and so on. This was the basic function of the collar. If she spent more Nurturing Points, there were advanced versions that allowed for features like climax control and excretion control, and if multiple were exchanged, complete sensory sharing was possible. However, Kaede's was only the basic version, and she had only exchanged points for this one collar.
In addition to Kaede being able to see Kaho's data within the System, Rin Ito could also see this data on the System's APP. However, to prevent Kaede from noticing anything abnormal, Rin Ito could only view, not interact with, the data on the APP. The only things Rin Ito could actively do with the APP were chat with his Daughter and poke Kaede's 2D character, but perhaps his Daughter would develop other features in the future, and it might truly turn into a hypnosis APP.
