I Got Reincarnated as the Scummy Dude Who Sends NTR Video Letters to Otaku Guys in Erotic Manga, But When I Tried to Steal His Girlfriend, I Accidentally Hooked Up with Her Twin Sister Instead - Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Locked Away

“Who?”

The second that one word hit my ears, it felt like my heart got grabbed and squeezed hard.

It was like her eyes were seeing straight through to the back of my soul…

“Uh, o…?”

It almost sounded like she was asking who was really inside me.

Like she was questioning the real contents of the guy who got reincarnated as Nedori Ren.

“What… what kinda question is that?”

“I figured it out. I noticed something was off with you, Nedori-kun.”

“…………Huh?”

While I just sat there stunned, she started talking. And what she said sent chills straight down my spine.

“For the past week I’ve been investigating everything super thoroughly. Where you were born, what your childhood was like, how you grew up, what experiences you had—I tracked down every single person connected to you and built a full profile. And that’s when I realized it. Right at the start of third term in your third year of middle school, just after New Year’s.”

“……………………”

“――Nedori-kun became a completely different person.”

“……!?”

“Up until then you were exactly what you looked like on the outside. Skipping class, breaking every school rule, hanging with that trio. Textbook delinquent. But after New Year’s you changed. You started showing up to class, studied seriously, and got into the number-one prep school in the city. That’s not normal. No matter how much natural talent you have for studying, there’s just no way you had enough time. Getting accepted should’ve been impossible. ――Unless you were literally reborn as someone else.”

Her pale hand slowly slid across my cheek.

The moment she touched me, goosebumps prickled all over my skin.

“Who are you, really?”

“……………………”

“Tell me.”

The hand stroking my cheek was gentle. Gentle like the way a mom would pet her kid.

But deep inside her eyes… there was no light at all.

Staring at each other from this close, it felt like I was getting pulled into an endless abyss.

“………………………”

Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit.

My heart was pounding so hard I thought it might actually stop.

Yui had figured out I’d been reincarnated. Or more precisely, that the person inside wasn’t the original Nedori Ren.

Either way, this was a total crisis.

I’d managed to brush off my parents and everyone else with some “I had a change of heart” bullshit, but her? No chance in hell.

――She’s never gonna let me go.

If she locked me up just to find out who I really am, she probably won’t let me leave this house until I confess everything.

Which means I was completely screwed. No matter what I did, there was zero peaceful way out.

“Yui, look, I—”

“Tell me.”

“I mean the ‘inside’ stuff is—”

“Tell me.”

See? No matter how much I tried to dodge, she wasn’t hearing any of it.

Worse, her palm slid from my jaw down to my chest.

Even though it tickled like crazy, her fingertips were slowly tracing little arcs right around my heart.

“U-o…”

She had me completely pinned down, straddling me while my whole body was restrained, and now she was stroking my heart like that.

My brain couldn’t even form a proper thought anymore. Terror, panic, and this messed-up excitement were all crashing together and frying me.

“Okay, fine. Looks like you’re gonna resist, Nedori-kun. But don’t worry. Until you tell me the truth, I’m gonna use every single method I can think of. I’ll make you feel tons of pleasure… and tons of pain too.”

The smile on her face when she said that was twisted.

That was definitely not an expression you should ever show your boyfriend. More like the kind you should never show anyone.

“……………………”

But goddamn, even like that she looked insanely beautiful.

Those pitch-black eyes, those wet lips, those flushed red cheeks, that soft flexible palm—everything about her was just gorgeous.

I knew it was fucked up. I knew my judgment was completely gone.

But I couldn’t do anything about it anymore.

The shivering fear running through me was hitting like the perfect spice, gripping my heart tight and not letting go.

“Nedori-kun… I love you.”

From here on out I was gonna be living under lock and key.

No idea what kind of life it was gonna be, but one thing I could say for sure.

Yui was never gonna let me go… and I couldn’t take my eyes off her either.

Even without handcuffs, we’d already been chained together by our hearts for a while now.

“So first I’m gonna stimulate you until you hit your limit, okay?”

“…Huh? Wait, isn’t that kinda dangerous?”

“No. If you won’t confess, then I’ll just have to make it so we’ve already done the deed.”

“Wait wait wait hold on that’s way too— uooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”

Self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship self-censorship…

And that’s how my captivity life started.

Yooo, Otaku-kun, you there?

Thinking back, we got super close pretty much right after we met, huh.

Our seats just happened to be next to each other, and we had the exact same hobbies—we were total comrades. Felt like straight-up destiny. Even now I still think I met my best bro.

You almost never talked in class, and I was always the one bugging you. Was that annoying?

I actually worried about it a bit. Like, maybe I was talking to you too much and getting on your nerves. Like maybe I was messing up your alone time.

But I swear that wasn’t my intention.

I just really wanted to talk to you. Talking with you is fun as hell.

Sorry, got kinda sappy there. Not really my vibe, right? I’m supposed to be the scummy dude after all.

But I just wanted to get this gratitude out there. This is my way of saying it.

Otaku-kun, thanks for everything, man.

Okay, that was the preface—now the real thing.

I’ve got one request.

Otaku-kun, help me!

I’m actually being held captive right now! Please! Otaku-kun! Come save me from this locked room! I’m begging you! Seriously, I’m begging!!
