I ended up living together with the school's number one beauty who rejected me even though I hadn't confessed to her, but why are her beautiful sisters aiming to steal my virginity? - Chapter 20 : I won't miss this chance~
Hiiragi Akane was irritated.
“What is it?”
Uttering those words with a voice that seemed exhausted, Akane collapsed onto her bed.
The first ‘night’ had ended. In terms of time, it was just one hour. As the Abyssal Catastrophe approached, the duration of the ‘night’ extended, and the intensity of nightmares increased. However, in the beginning, not many severe nightmares appeared, so it was a kind of warm-up for the shoulders.
…That’s what she thought, but it suddenly manifested. A giant spider, easily over 100 meters in length, a nightmare that seemed too massive to appear even close to the Abyssal Catastrophe, materialized as if seeping from the night sky.
No matter how enormous the nightmares that appeared during the ‘night,’ they wouldn’t have a significant impact on reality.
…However, when dealing with something that large, it was a different story. If such a massive nightmare rampaged, it would have adverse effects on both reality and dreams. Moreover, when a nightmare of this scale returned to its owner, that person would undoubtedly die.
…No, it wouldn’t just end with death. It would likely lead to a major incident involving hundreds of people.
So, Akane and her sisters, all six of them, cooperated to confront that nightmare.
Touka halted its movements, Kaede struck, Midori slashed, Akane burned, Shiemi crushed, and finally, Aoi obliterated it.
Even after all that, the nightmare did not disappear. The spider, shattered into pieces, used its threads to assimilate other nightmares, resurrecting in the blink of an eye. Even Aoi, who directly witnessed it referred to it as a monster.
To that extent, the nightmare was an exceptional existence.
And then, everyone struggled desperately together, managing to prevent it from returning to its owner. …But in the end, they couldn’t defeat it. So, surely, that nightmare would reappear in the ‘night’ tomorrow.
Everyone knew that, so they had no energy to go to school and collapsed onto their beds in the same way.
“I am hungry…”
Unable to sleep easily, Akane slowly got up from her bed and opened a pack of sweet buns she had bought.
“…This bread isn’t that tasty.”
But even so, she couldn’t muster the energy to cook with her tired body, and she couldn’t rely on Touka, who usually prepared dinner. Moreover, even though she had gradually started talking to Touka, it wasn’t like they had reconciled.
“But what am I really doing?”
After Nazuna was kicked out, the relationship between the sisters suddenly deteriorated. Especially with Midori and Shiemi, she barely speaks with them now… Even today’s events, if they worked with coordination, the task would have been much easier.
“…It doesn’t matter. Even if I’m alone, I have to do it.”
It was something that should never be influenced by personal feelings. The duty was so dangerous that a single misstep could result in the death of important family members.
…No, in fact. Five years ago, when the Abyssal Catastrophe appeared, there was one victim even among Akane and the sisters.
“Still, I…”
She looked at the treasure placed under the desk, as if hiding it. As long as it existed, Akane’s heart would not break, no matter what happened.
“….!”
But suddenly, she remembered. That woman who entered Nazuna’s house. Just thinking about it caused a tearing pain in her chest, and Akane hugged the pillow tightly.
“…It has nothing to do with me.”
Using the magic of escaping reality as always, Akane endured the pain.
In the first place, Akane knew. She knew and expelled Nazuna from this house…. That should have been the case, but Akane’s weak heart did not accept that fact, always shouting in pain.
“Your magic is in a night that will never dawn.”
She remembered those words. This chest pain was also part of that contract. So, as if resigning herself, Akane closed her eyes and averted her gaze from the pain in her chest.
“Has the cold gone away…”
Finally, she whispered softly and fell into a deep sleep.
◇◇◇◇◇◇
The Next Day…..
After school the next day, while still looking up at the sky, I took a deep breath.
“Something must have happened, for sure.”
Midori-nee and the others were still absent from school today. They seemed to have informed the school that they had a cold, but it was unlikely that all the sisters would catch a cold at the same time.
Moreover, as if to prove that, a reply message arrived from Midori last night. “We are fine. More importantly, I’m glad Nazuna is feeling better.” It was a message that could tell she was hiding something without even seeing her face. Only one such message arrived, and after that, no matter how much I tried to contact them, there was no reply from the other side.
“What are you spacing out for? Nazuna-san. If you keep daydreaming, you’ll trip, you know?”
Walking beside me, Suou-san said that and laughed happily.
In the end, I couldn’t refuse Suou-san’s invitation, and I ended up going to Suou-san’s house. So now, like this, the two of us were walking side by side towards her house.
“…..?”
Of course, if I really wanted to escape, I could. But how much did Suou-san know about my past, and what was her purpose? I still didn’t know that.
So, to find that out, I decided to get a little closer to Suou-san.
“…Wow, it’s huge. Is this really your house?”
Looking up at the large house where Suou-san stopped, I inadvertently opened my eyes wide.
“Yes. It’s not a house I can brag about, but this is my house. Since Nazuna-san’s room is also ready, you can stay overnight from today if you’d like.”
“That’s… very kind of you.”
Suou-san’s house was not just twice as large as Hiiragi’s house, which I thought was huge. By this point, it would be more appropriate to call it a mansion rather than a house.
“Come on in. The preparations for your hospitality have already been completed,” Suou-san said.
I was allowed to enter the mansion and received astonishing hospitality. I was served expensive-looking tea by the servants, received a massage, and enjoyed a dinner that melted the tastebuds my mouth.
Before I knew it, the surroundings were engulfed in the darkness of the night.
“…No reply has come yet.”
Sitting on the chair in the room assigned to me, I muttered those words.
I hadn’t planned to stay overnight today, but it seemed Suou-san had no intention of sending me home. Before I realized it, it was already a time when trains were no longer running.
“Do you still care about that woman?”
Suou-san, who came into the room as if it were natural, looked at me with her black eyes.
“Well, yeah, I do care,” I replied, as there was no reason to lie.
“But, since there’s no reply, it means you’re not needed by them anymore,” she continued.
“That’s… maybe true,” I admitted. I didn’t know what troubles those women were facing or what they were involved in. I might be bothering them by sending messages repeatedly.
“Fufu~, feeling lonely? But don’t worry. I’ll make you forget about those women. I’ll use my body…”
Suou-san whispered sensually and kissed my earlobe.
“Hey! What are you doing all of a sudden?”
Feeling ticklish, I hastily distanced myself.
“Fufu~, you’re too cute. I’m not experienced in such matters, but seeing Nazuna’s troubled face makes me shiver with excitement…”
“Please spare me.”
I said and took a deep breath to calm myself down.
“Anyway, how about it? Did you like my house?”
“Well, the dinner was really delicious. Just a bit… unsettling.”
“You’ll get used to it soon. After all, from today onwards, this is your home, Nazuna-san.”
“I appreciated the invitation, and I’m grateful for your hospitality. But, I haven’t said I’m going to live here yet.”
“I want you to say it soon. Because I love you.”
Suou-san, like a predatory beast, licked her lips with her long tongue.
“Why do you care so much about me, Suou-san? I’m not that great of a person.”
“Hehe~, you still say that?”
Suou-san, with her long, beautiful black hair swaying, slowly approached me.
“I…” I began to retreat from her. But, the wall was right behind me, and there was no escape.
“I won’t let you escape. Absolutely, I won’t. Because seeing your talent with my own eyes has been my dream for many years.”
Suou-san said, bringing her face close to my ear and blowing a deep breath.
I couldn’t help but turn my face away from the ticklish sensation.
“Shall we go to the next room? I’ll show you how much I love you.”
After gently embracing my tense body, Suou-san pulled my arm and we moved to the next room. The moment we entered that room, I immediately realized how much she knew about my secrets and what she intended to do to me.
So, from that day on, I began to live in Suou-san’s house.
My life was indeed an endless winter. No matter where I went or what I did, I couldn’t escape from pain and suffering.
With a deep realization of this, my new life began.
