Kagura was walking through the city in a white oversized T-shirt, high-waisted jeans, and a watch on her left wrist. There was still plenty of time before she had to reach her destination.
Her face looked calm, but in her mind she was grinning from ear to ear. 'I must get it today,' she thought.
Suddenly, a chubby woman wearing clothes that didn't quite fit her size rushed past and accidentally bumped into Kagura. Yet the woman herself was pushed back as if she had collided with a wall. "This bitch, how dare you push me!" the woman shouted loudly.
Kagura turned her head and looked at the woman sitting on the ground. She quietly sighed in annoyance, then leaned down with a kind smile and offered her hand. Kagura noticed, 'Something slipped from her bag.' Seeing a woman like Kagura smiling at her so gently, the woman's anger quickly faded away.
That chubby woman reached for Kagura's hand. Kagura immediately sensed something was off, but she still took the woman's hand and helped her stand up. As if her entire demeanor had changed, the woman began thanking her.
"Hehehe... Thank you... hehehe... Can you tell me your name...?"
Kagura immediately realized why she had sensed something strange earlier. The woman's fingers were slowly caressing her hand, and there was a disturbingly creepy look in her eyes.
Kagura looked at her as if she were a disgusting worm, but to her surprise, the woman seemed to enjoy that look even more. Kagura closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. 'Causing a scene would only waste time.' Her gaze shifted to the female police officer she had noticed standing nearby earlier. She separated their hands and walked toward her.
The chubby woman froze in shock, trying to hide herself. Kagura stopped right in front of the female police officer and handed her a keychain.
"Thanks for your hard work, Officer. I found this lost item on the ground over there." Kagura pointed toward the chubby woman. It was a keychain that had fallen out of the woman's bag earlier.
Thinking Kagura had reported her, the chubby woman immediately turned around and hurried away. The female police officer thanked Kagura, and Kagura continued walking toward her destination. There was still quite a distance left, yet she found herself quietly humming in anticipation.
Suddenly, her smartphone buzzed repeatedly with a flood of message notifications. Kagura took out her phone and saw a notification from a familiar name.
<{Yuna}>.
The same woman who had confessed to Kagura a week ago, and the same one who had caught her masturbating yesterday.
A trace of annoyance surfaced because of what had happened before, but it had already been over a week.
'Maybe I should start talking to her again,' she thought as old memories resurfaced. She tapped on the messages.
[Kagura, how have you been?... ]
[I'm sorry about before. I want to talk to you. Are you free today?... ]
[I thought maybe we could go shopping, and I also booked a restaurant for dinner.]
Kagura's steps came to a halt after reading the messages. 'I'm busy the whole day... Still, dinner should be fine.' Just as she was about to type a reply, another notification appeared.
It was a picture.
Kagura felt as if lightning had struck her. In the photo, Yuna was wearing a modest yet attractive outfit, standing in front of the large mirror in her room.
[I'm thinking of wearing this outfit. It's the one you gifted me on my last birthday.]
It was an attractive picture, enough to make Kagura feel her futanari stiffen, but thankfully, after spending the entire night with the onahole, it remained under control.
Ordinarily, this would have been nothing more than friends sharing an outfit before going shopping together. But Yuna had confessed to Kagura only a week ago. Kagura couldn't help but suspect that Yuna still hadn't given up on her one-sided feelings.
Kagura stood there silently for nearly half a minute, thinking carefully about what she should do before finally beginning to type.
[I'm busy the whole day. I won't be able to come with you.]
Almost instantly, another message arrived.
[I'm really sorry about that. I just want to spend some time with you. Please...]
Kagura felt she might have been a little too harsh. Yuna was one of the few people she truly felt close to, someone who had been by her side since their school days.
Thinking that, Kagura continued typing.
[But]
[I'll be able to come for dinner. Just tell me the address.]
Yuna replied immediately.
[I'll come pick you up. We can talk a little while we're driving.]
Kagura answered without hesitation.
[Send me the address.]
Yuna sent a sad emoji before finally sending the restaurant's address.
After putting her smartphone back into her pocket, Kagura started walking toward her destination once again. Before long, her humming returned as she could no longer contain her anticipation.
On the other side, in Tokyo, a mysterious, divine-looking portal opened at the end of an alley. A beautiful woman with silver twin-tails leaped out of it, her pale blue eyes shining with excitement.
It was none other than, "Luna, the little sister of Goddess Lumiel, is here! Earth's entertainment, WAIT FOR ME!"
She had already changed her clothes while passing through the portal, now wearing an oversized hoodie, tight shorts, and thigh-high socks, the fabric clinging to her graceful curves.
She immediately started running out of the alley. The portal's destination had been chosen carefully, it was Akihabara, The Holy land of Otaku. She could barely contain her excitement as she wondered what new things she would discover.
The moment she stepped onto the street, stores filled every corner of Akihabara. Her eyes widened at the sheer number of stores before she loses all restraint and immediately began rushing from one store to another, checking out the newest volumes of the ongoing series and searching for brand-new stories.
"Ohh!! Is this the new volume of [My Boss is the Idol?!]?" The famous romance novel that had broken sales records. She immediately picked it up.
"Is this novel finally back from hiatus?" She happily started picking up more of her favorite series, more than 15 minutes had passed, hands were full of novels of many different genres, but as she reached for another book, her body suddenly froze.
[情欲は運命となる (Jōyoku wa Unmei to Naru)]
The moment her eyes landed on the title, her cheeks flushed crimson. She immediately stumbled backward, dropping every book she had collected.
"Is... is that an 18+ novel?"
She looked around, only to realize she had wandered into the adults-only section. Her face grew even redder as she immediately ran out, leaving all the books scattered across the floor. One of the clerks quickly came over after hearing the noise. "Is everything okay, customer? Please let me know if there's any problem."
Still flustered from the embarrassing situation, Luna pointed toward the pile of books without even looking in that direction. "I-I-I..." She paused for a moment before puffing out her cheeks. "Hmph! I didn't like any of those books, so I threw them away! Order better novels next time!"
She stomped away with loud footsteps. She never turned back to look at the novels she had been so excited to pick up, but the disappointment in her eyes was obvious as she walked out of the store with a single thought.
'Why am I like this?'
As she walked a few steps away from the store, her shoulders relaxed. Looking back, she thought, 'Should I go back and apologize to that clerk? I should...'
But she couldn't bring herself to take a single step toward the store. She stood there for several seconds, feeling completely stuck. Since she couldn't stop thinking about it, she immediately turned toward another store and walked inside.
It was an arcade.
She threw herself into the games, winning prize after prize like a champion. After only ten minutes, her arms were filled with so many prizes that they had formed a tower taller than her head.
A few staff members and customers began whispering among themselves. "Look! How did she even win that many?"
Another customer, however, adjusted her glasses with a sharp look in her eyes before saying, "She is the legend of Akihabara. The girl who wins everything without holding back, making even the manager cry. The Legendary Collector."
The staff member looked at the girl with glasses. "Heh, you really know your stuff. There's even a rumor she once emptied an entire prize section in a single day."
The two looked at each other with matching smirks before immediately dabbing each other.
Another staff member walked over and smacked the grinning employee on the head. "Quit talking and help her. She might get buried under all that."
After a few more seconds, the staff brought Luna a shopping basket on a rolling cart. With the staff's help, Luna carefully placed all her prizes inside before happily pushing the cart out of the arcade, wearing the biggest smile on her face while passersby couldn't help but notice her.
While walking, she noticed a huge line. Following it with curiosity, her gaze landed on the large poster displayed in front of a nearby store.
Today was the release of the famous series' newest game. [Tamashii no Game 6 Limited Edition] Her eyes sparkled, and her hands instinctively clasped together.
But the line stretched endlessly. Inside Luna's mind, a chibi version of herself burst into tears. 'At this rate, I won't get a physical copy... You all, Just buy it online!'
As if answering her thoughts, she overheard a nearby conversation. A child looked up at a woman wearing messy, oversized clothes that seemed to hide her body.
"I want to know why Auntie wants a physical copy."
"Hehehe..." the woman laughed awkwardly. "It's one of the hardest game series ever made... hehehe. The online servers have already crashed. I... have to buy the physical limited edition. People have been waiting for this game for an entire year... heh."
Chibi Luna wiped away her tears and looked at the woman before nodding repeatedly, as if she completely agreed.
After a while, the automatic glass doors slid open. A store clerk stepped outside, raising a megaphone. "The sales for Tamashii no Game 6 Limited Edition are starting NOW!"
As everyone rushed inside, Luna walked in small circles, anxiously wondering, 'How am I supposed to get a physical copy? That line never ends... I can't just wait for the servers to recover... I have to…'
Around Half an hour later, Luna rushed into the store herself. 'It's okay... even if there's only one copy left...'
But the moment she reached the display, her body froze. Not a single copy remained. She immediately turned toward a nearby staff member. "Is there any left? Even just one copy..."
"Sorry, ma'am. The last one was just sold. If there's anything else you'd like to buy, please let us know."
Hearing that, Luna's shoulders slumped. Her arms hung limply at her sides as she slowly walked away. 'Now I either have to buy it from a reseller... or wait for the servers to come back online.'
As she was walking away, her eyes suddenly landed on a beautiful woman whose appearance rivaled that of a goddess. A faint golden aura seemed to surround her.
It was none other than...
Arakawa Kagura.
