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?

Hiiragi Akane didn’t understand.

“…….”

Seated on the living room sofa, Akane turned her gaze to the red bracelet as if confirming something.

“…dsIs he okay?”

Just a moment ago, she happened to meet Nazuna in the park by chance. It felt like a destined encounter, but it was truly just a coincidence. So when Akane saw Nazuna’s face, her heart throbbed.

…But Nazuna seemed terribly tired, just like back then. He had the same eyes that seemed to have given up on everything.

“Maybe he’s going through the same thing as before…”

Stopping her words midway, Akane sighed…. For a moment, she thought that perhaps Nazuna was being bullied by the new friend he made. In that case, she should help him.

“…How foolish.”

But that was just a convenient delusion for herself. Akane wasn’t foolish enough not to realize that.

“Besides, I wasn’t the one bullying him back then.”

So Nazuna must be tired from living in his new home for a while. Even if that wasn’t the case, it didn’t concern Akane anymore.

Akane strongly told herself that and looked at the distant sky.

“…He said he was happy. He also thanked me.”

Then, that alone is enough. With just that, Akane can fight against the ‘night’ again today.

“…….”

Despite thinking that, a cold anxiety cast a shadow over Akane’s chest.

…She might never see Nazuna again.

For some reason, a premonition-like anxiety swirled within her chest…. But Akane, with a forced smile, brushed away such weakness.

“Well, it’s about time.”

The pure white moon slowly dyed dark. As if signaling that, the girls started walking towards the ‘night.’

“…Akane, can I ask you something for a moment?”

However, just before heading into the ‘night,’ Midori, who hadn’t spoken for a while, spoke up.

“I don’t mind, but we’re short on time, so make it brief.”

Hearing Akane’s words, Midori muttered softly, suppressing her anger.

“Did you go to visit Nazuna, Akane?”

“…What nonsense.”

“I got a message from Nazuna. He thanked me for the get-well gift. But I didn’t go to visit him.”

“So, you want to say that it was me? But unfortunately, I didn’t go to visit him.”

Saying that, Akane looked away as if dodging the question. However, Midori continued to gaze directly at Akane.

“If you were going to visit him, why did you kick Nazuna out! Why did you… hurt Nazuna-kun! Answer me!”

“I told you, I didn’t go to visit him… Besides, why bring up such things now? It doesn’t matter anymore.”

“…I know. I completely know that Akane isn’t someone who would do unreasonable things for no reason. So I always thought there must be a reason, and someday you would tell me. But Akane, you still haven’t said anything…”

“And you got fed up, came to me, is that it?… But sorry, I have nothing to say.”

“Akane—”

“Akane, Midori. Let’s postpone the discussion…. The ‘night’ is starting soon, okay?”

Watching the two from a distance, Aoi, who had been silent, said. So the two nodded in silence and walked towards the ‘night.’

“…I still haven’t forgiven you.”

Such a small whisper from Midori echoed in the end.

◇◇◇◇◇◇

The girls, today as well, dashed through the “night.”

The nightmare of a gigantic spider, still impossible to destroy. As time passes and the “night” deepens, its power increases, and the girls find themselves in a one-sided defensive.

“Sorry! My magic can’t stop it anymore! The attack went towards Midori-chan!”

Following Touka’s shout, the giant legs of the spider rapidly approached Midori.

“…This much is no problem.”

Even in such a situation, Midori remains undaunted. She raises her right hand and activates magic.

“…..!”

At that moment, the spider’s legs approaching Midori disintegrate into fragments.

“No! Midori-chan! The legs aren’t just one!”

“…Eh? Oh no──”

Hearing Touka’s voice, Midori hastily tries to activate another spell. However, the black legs of the spider, approaching in the darkness of the night, are unexpectedly fast.

‘…It’s too late.’

That’s what Midori thought at that moment, and a voice echoed.

“For goodness’ sake, how annoying…!”

With an irritated shout, Akane glares at the legs approaching Midori with her red eyes.

Just that, and the two legs approaching Midori easily burn out…. They regenerate quickly, though.

“Really, a monster…”

“…Thank you, Akane.”

Facing Akane, who stares at the nightmare of the spider without hesitation, Midori lowers her head and says, “Thank you.”

“…It’s nothing. This is the least I can do.”

“Still, really, thank you. If it weren’t for Akane, I would be dead by now…”

A slightly calm atmosphere flows between the two…. However, as if there is no time to relax like that, the nightmare of the spider starts to rampage again.

“Both of you! If you have time to talk, come for my support!”

Kaede instructed, and with one arm, she tore apart the spider’s large leg approaching and then rushed towards the spider in the sky.

“…..!”

The spider, in annoyance, emits a harsh sound, spewing thread from its mouth toward Kaede.

“I’ve seen that many times already.”

Muttering so, Midori creates a gust of wind, pushing back the thread the spider spewed.

“Now, it’s my turn.”

And then, the giant zombie doll, the magic of Shiemi, who was not present in this scene, pressed down on the spider’s movements.

“It won’t last long! So, Kaede, do it quickly!”

“Thanks! Shiemi-nee!… Take this! This is my 100%!”

Kaede’s punch, so fast that the air creaks, hits the spider’s abdomen directly.

“……!”

The spider danced in the air.

Under the impact of Kaede’s powerful punch, the spider floated helplessly in the night sky. Taking advantage of that opening, Midori uses the thread from earlier to restrain the spider’s body.

“I’d be grateful if you die now.”

Hovering at a height overlooking the night sky, Aoi, who had been waiting, captures the spider’s entire body in her field of view.

“…Is that so?”

Realizing Aoi’s aim, Shiemi, who controls the giant zombie doll, transforms it into numerous small dolls. Using these small dolls, she destroys the nightmares floating around.

“Leave it to us! Shall we go, Akane-chan!”

“Got it!”

Touka and Akane, who have not participated in the battle so far, notice Shiemi’s intentions from the movements of Shiemi and Kaede, and destroyed the nightmares that Shiemi’s dolls could not destroy.

So, for the first time since the “night” began, the nightmare of the spider was completely defenseless.

All of its long, numerous legs were entangled with its own thread, and there are no nightmares that can be absorbed around it. In such a situation, the spider desperately struggles and raises a loud scream as if seeking help.

“……!”

…But there is no one to help the spider in this situation anymore

“Well, everything is ready.”

Confirming that the sisters have distanced themselves from the spider, Aoi, standing in the night sky, activates her magic.

Each sister has their own unique magic, and during their respective roles, they mainly fight using that magic.

Midori: Slicing with the wind.

Kaede : Physical enhancement.

Akane : Flames.

Shiemi : Manipulation of dolls.

Touka : Hypnosis.

And Aoi…..

“Goodbye, nightmare.”

Aoi’s bracelet glows dimly, and her magic is activated.

“…..!”

The spider emitted a distorted voice of pain…. But there is no way to escape Aoi’s magic anymore.

Aoi’s magic can erase anything within her field of vision. It has no effect if something is even slightly out of her field of vision, but once she captures it in her sight, she can erase anything.

This magic is no exception for the giant spider nightmare, so the spider disappears from the world of the “night” without leaving a single fragment.

“…It’s finally over.”

To Akane’s muttered words, no one replied… Because everyone didn’t know. Did they really manage to destroy the nightmare of that spider? No one had a definite conviction.

“It’s not over, right, Akane?”

Appearing in front of Akane, Midori exhales as if amazed.

“…Then, is that spider still alive?”

“No. I’m saying that the ‘night’ has just begun. Our enemy is not that spider but the nightmare of God – the Heavenly Abyssal Catastrophe. So, it’s not over yet.”

“…Right. As Midori says. I let my guard down for a moment.”

“Yes. But… Thank you earlier. Akane is amazing, after all.”

“I’m still far from my Aoi-nee-san…But I’m glad Midori is safe.”

The two looked at each other and smiled gently. Just with that, it feels like the thorn that had been stuck in their chests for a long time disappears, and both of their hearts feel a little lighter.

“……..”

So Akane looks straight at Midori and said,

“Someday, I’ll talk about it. When all the problems are really solved. I’ll tell everyone, including that guy… Nazuma-kun, everything. For now, I can only say this…. Sorry.”

“It’s okay…. It’s really okay. More importantly now──”

“──Watch out! Midori!”

A desperate-looking Akane shouted so and forcefully pushed Midori away. At that moment, as if gushing out from Midori’s shadow, the nightmare of the spider appeared and entangled Akane’s body with its long thread.

“Akane—!”

Trying to help Akane, Midori raises her arm…. But, was kicked by the rapidly growing legs of the giant spider, she couldn’t make it in time.

“…It’s come to this. Why do bad premonitions come true so often?”

Akane said that, relaxing her shoulders as if she had given up on everything.. All the sisters desperately activate their magic to help Akane…. But Akane was more aware than anyone else that they couldn’t make it in time..

“…Sorry, guys. The rest… I’ll leave it to you.”

At the end, Akane laughed… And then, without any mercy, the spider’s nightmare swallowed Akane’s body.
