I, Who Acquired the Ability to Read Memories, Am Being Swallowed by Darkness - While I Should Be Protecting Beautiful Girls, I Am Being Drawn into Darkness Each Time I Use My Power, Yet for Some Reason, My Harem of Beautiful Girls Keeps Growing - Chapter 56: Operation Day

Chapter 56: Operation Day

The scorching midsummer sun beats down on the amusement park.

Having entered at opening time, I was already waiting inside the haunted house.

The deepest part of the dimly lit corridor.

A slightly recessed wall in the final area, shrouded in complete darkness.

Here, no one would notice me.

Sweat beads on my skin.

The air conditioning should be working, but my body feels hot with tension.

10 a.m., 11 a.m., 12 p.m…

Staring at my smartphone screen, I quietly mark the passing time.

1:50 p.m.

The first report comes through in the LINE group “Summer Festival Committee.”

Reiko: “Arrived at the meeting spot! Everyone’s here!”

Attached is a photo of Reiko and Ryoko smiling in front of the entrance gate.

Next to them, Onizuka with a shy expression.

And… subtly in the background, Yamashita’s figure casually captured.

I quietly send a “Like” sticker.

Reiko: “The merry-go-round is cute!”

Ryoko: “I want to ride the white horse!”

Seemingly trivial chatter continues.

But hidden within it are precise codes.

2:10 p.m.

Reiko: “The haunted house looks scary…”

It’s time.

A new photo arrives on my smartphone screen.

Ryoko striking a playful pose at the haunted house entrance.

Reiko: “The line’s super short! Lucky!”

This is the signal that things are proceeding as planned.

I take a deep breath.

The next 15 minutes until they reach this spot.

That’s the critical moment for the plan’s success.

Reiko: “Sorry… change of plans. Yamashita says he needs the bathroom.”

My heart skips a beat.

Ryoko: “I told him the haunted house is quick, but he says he’s about to leak.”

Attached is a photo.

Yamashita at the haunted house entrance, his face contorted in discomfort.

I reply immediately.

“If Yamashita doesn’t enter the haunted house, the plan’s pointless.”

Reiko: “It’s fine. We decided to take a bathroom break first, then all go to the haunted house together.”

2:50 p.m.

Suddenly, the LINE messages stop.

No replies from either of them.

Ten minutes to head to the bathroom.

Even if it’s crowded, it should take 20 minutes max.

Ten minutes to return.

No signal for the plan’s execution.

Is the bathroom that crowded?

3:00 p.m.

They should’ve returned from the bathroom and entered the haunted house by now.

No sign of Reiko or Ryoko.

I’ve been waiting, afraid of missing them, but I’ve sent several LINE messages with no reply.

“Damn it…!”

In the darkness, I grit my teeth.

No way…

Time drags on inside the haunted house.

3:15 p.m.

Still no LINE replies.

3:30 p.m.

I check my smartphone screen repeatedly.

Not even a read receipt.

Worst-case scenarios flood my mind.

What did Yamashita do in the confined space of the Ferris wheel?

Are Reiko and Ryoko safe?

“Should I leave this spot…?”

But I can’t move.

What if they’re fine and come here?

Sweat drips down my forehead.

Despite the air-conditioned space, my back is drenched.

4:00 p.m.

Closing time is approaching.

My long wait in the haunted house proves fruitless, with no LINE replies in the end.

Reluctantly, I leave my post and start searching the park.

And then, in the corridor in front of the multipurpose restroom, I spot the four of them.

My body freezes like ice.

Reiko and Ryoko look… different somehow.

Their hair is disheveled, their faces flushed.

Their eyes are vacant, as if their consciousness is drifting far away.

In contrast, Yamashita and Onizuka wear satisfied smirks.

Especially Yamashita’s eyes behind his glasses, brimming with unfathomable malice.

“Damn it…”

Hiding in the shadows, I clench my fists tightly.

The plan was a complete failure.

Worse, it’s the worst possible outcome.

The amusement park at dusk.

The music and announcements signaling closing time ring in my heart like a bell of despair.

Reiko and Ryoko… their radiant smiles now replaced by vacant eyes, held in Yamashita’s arms like marionettes, embraced with unconscious smiles.

To think those beautiful smiles could look so distorted.

The parade music begins, as if mocking the dreamlike, magical space.

Colorful lights, dancing performers, children’s cheers… all of it sounds like dissonance to my ears.

Reiko and Ryoko should’ve been enjoying this vibrant space with genuine joy.

Fireworks reflect off Yamashita’s glasses.

Their eerie glow is like the eyes of a demon.

Onizuka, sticking close to Yamashita, wears a cold smirk, as if certain of their wicked scheme’s success.

Reiko and Ryoko… in Yamashita’s arms, embraced by Onizuka, kissed by both.

Their lips defiled.

Their mouths ravaged by forceful tongues.

The fireworks’ light illuminates their twisted smiles.

It’s no longer love or joy.

Just an ugly, tragic scene of domination and submission.

The melody of “Auld Lang Syne” casts an even darker shadow over the four entangled bodies.

The music feels like a cruel lullaby, mocking their souls.

“Damn it…”

The closing announcement echoes.

People rush toward the exits.

Families, couples, friends.

All heading home with happy memories.

But the four are different.

“Going home now would be such a waste, right?”

Yamashita’s voice rings out eerily.

His eyes behind the glasses glint wickedly in the night’s darkness.

The back of the amusement park, marked on the park map.

A small, man-made forest.

The four figures disappear into it.

Reiko and Ryoko walk obediently, like marionettes.

Onizuka’s eyes, too, have already lost the light of reason.

“This might be my chance.”

I cautiously follow the four of them, keeping a considerable distance.

The now-deserted amusement park offers a clear line of sight.

Hiding in the bushes, I muffle my footsteps.

The park’s streetlights begin to dim.

Darkness envelops us.

The faint sound of the four’s footsteps.

And the pounding of my heart.

“I won’t let you have your way with them, Yamashita.”

But in this darkness, what can I possibly do?

My 195cm, 120kg frame is powerless against hypnosis the moment our eyes meet.

Still, I have no choice but to move forward.

I can’t abandon Reiko and Ryoko like this.

I step deeper into the dark forest.

The darkness completely engulfs the dense woods.

In the pitch-black void, where neither moonlight nor streetlights reach, the voices of the two I love echo.

They’re animalistic, inhuman sounds.

“Ngoooohhh! Oguuuu!”

“Aaahhh! Nhooo! Aaahhh! It’s coming out!!!”

Ryoko’s sobs.

Reiko’s moans.

Just hearing them tightens my chest.

(But this is a chance.)

In this darkness, Yamashita’s hypnotic ability shouldn’t work.

No eye contact, no reading expressions—it’s impossible in this void.

If anything, my bulky frame might give me an advantage.

I take a cautious step forward.

Supporting my 120kg weight, I try not to make a sound.

The rustle of leaves, the snap of twigs—every noise feels amplified, fraying my nerves.

“Oguuu! Oguuu! It’s coming out!! So intense, so intense!! Nhooon!!!”

“Ngooo! Ohhh! It’s coming out! It’s so intense!! Uuuu!!!”

But the voices of the two grow louder as I approach.

Their intensity drowns out any concern for my footsteps.

(Just a bit closer.)

My eyes begin to adjust to the darkness, and the faint outlines of trees come into view.

In the forest, where slivers of moonlight start to leak through, shadowy figures flicker.

Ryoko’s tall, athletic frame.

Reiko’s elegant presence.

The forms of the two I love dimly emerge in the darkness.

I search for Yamashita and Onizuka, who must be nearby.

What are they doing to them?

Their animalistic voices seem to be reaching a climax.

(Just a little more.)

Blending into the darkness, I take another step.

From beyond the bushes, the full scene finally comes into view.

Moonlight spills through the clouds, illuminating a hazy spectacle.

What I see defies imagination.

But I know it’s real.

The reality unfolding before me makes my heart feel like it’s about to explode.

“Oguuu! Oguuu! It’s coming out!! So intense, so intense!! Nhooon!!!”

“Ngooo! Ohhh! It’s coming out! It’s so intense!! Uuuu!!!”

Ryoko’s athletic frame is roughly bent over.

Onizuka’s hands move violently, grabbing her breasts.

Her pink nipples are pinched out, taken into Onizuka’s mouth.

“Oguuu! Guchu, guchu, jururu!! Nmyuu! Zzozzozzo!!!”

“Nnn! Aaaahhh! More, harder!! I want it so bad!!!”

Reiko is on all fours on the ground, being violated by Yamashita from behind.

Her cute, small anus is relentlessly pounded by his cock.

“Aaahhh! I’m sorry! I can’t take it! It feels too good, I’m going crazy!!!”

Arching her back, she shakes her long, beautiful black hair.

She thrusts her hips in rhythm with Yamashita’s movements, trembling with pleasure.

Like Ryoko, she lets out animalistic cries.

(I didn’t want to see this.)

“Aaahhh… No… I’ll die…”

“Please… forgive me…”

“Aaahhh!! I can’t take it!! Stop!!!”

Reiko’s screams echo.

As if responding, Onizuka moves.

Straddling Ryoko’s body, he thrusts his hips violently.

“Aaahhh! Ogo, ogo! I’ll die!! Please, forgive me!!!”

Onizuka’s thick penis plunges deep into Ryoko, releasing spurts of white liquid.

“Ogooooooo!!!”

“Ahyuuuuuuuunn!!!”

At the same time, Yamashita’s cock rages, semen spraying from Reiko’s anus.

“Oguoooooo!!!”

“Nooooooo!!!”

Letting out beastly cries, the two climax repeatedly.

Each time, love juices and semen splatter across the forest, filling it with a foul stench.

Onizuka’s lips curl into a smirk.

“Time to switch. Make it even more fun.”

He begins rubbing his penis against Reiko’s pussy.

Feeling pleasure from its smooth texture, he takes a deep breath and thrusts in.

“Ogooooooo!!!”

“Ahyuuuuuuuunn!!!”

Once again, their voices echo through the forest.

“Aaahhh! Nhooo! Aaaaaa!!!”

“Ngoooo! Oguuuu!!!”

Their screams make me want to cover my ears.

In the moonlight-lit bushes, Reiko and Ryoko, their clothes torn to shreds, their bodies drenched in sticky fluids.

Behind them stand Onizuka and Yamashita.

Onizuka grabs Reiko’s breasts with his massive hands, while Yamashita shoves his penis into Ryoko’s anus.

From Reiko’s small, pink pussy, white semen gushes out.

Likewise, white semen sprays from Ryoko’s anus.

“Oguuu! Oguuu! It’s coming out!! So intense, so intense!! Nhooon!!!”

“Ngooo! Ohhh! It’s coming out! It’s so intense!! Uuuu!!!”

Their ferocious voices sound as if they’re yearning for each other.

But in truth, it’s a horrific crime fueled by violence and hypnosis.

“Ngoooo!! Aaa! Nfgyooo!!!”

“Aaahhh! Stop! Dabugeeee!!!”

Their clothes are in disarray, their hair a mess.

Their bodies are soaked in sweat, their expressions ghastly.

“Ngooo! Aaahhh! I’m coming! Coming! Coming!!!”

“Hiyuuuu! I’m being made to come!!!”

The intense intercourse begins again.

Ryoko covers her mouth with both hands, desperately trying to endure.

Reiko stretches her legs taut, surrendering to the pleasure.

“Ngoooo! Nn!! Ihyahyahyahya!!!”

“Aaahhh! So intense, so intense!!!”

Ryoko and Reiko in a frenzied state.

Onizuka and Yamashita take turns thrusting.

“Ngoooo! I’m coming!!!”

“Hooo! I’m gonna come!!!”

Onizuka is fiercely rubbing Reiko’s cute clitoris with his thick fingers while thrusting into her pussy.

Meanwhile, Yamashita, having pulled his large cock from Ryoko’s anus, now plunges it into her pussy.

“Anhooo!!”

“Uhh!!”

Their voices overlap.

The dry sound of slapping flesh echoes, and I can tell semen is splattering.

“Come on, you can still go, right? Let’s hear even louder screams!”

“Aaahhh! Hyahh! It’s coming out!!”

Supported by Onizuka’s grip, Reiko screams.

Matching Yamashita’s relentless thrusts, Ryoko continues to moan intensely.

“Ohhh! Ohhh! Gobeeee!!!”

“Aaahhh! Fgooooo!!!”

“Hogu! Hogu! Hogu!”

Onizuka roughly pounds Reiko from behind with brute force.

Her body jolts and bounces, her white back forming a beautiful curve.

“Nhyah! Nyah! Nyah!”

Onizuka and Yamashita act as if they’re the ultimate rulers.

Their demeanor is nothing short of beastly.

“Ogo! Ogooooo!!!”

The piston-like thrusts intensify with incredible ferocity.

Each thrust reverberates through the forest with a massive sound.

“Nhyah! Nyah! Nyah!”

“Aaahhh! Moreeee!!!”

Ryoko screams, her entire body trembling.

It’s clear her pleasure has reached its limit.

Her breasts are roughly squeezed, and each intense thrust draws out animalistic cries from her mouth.

“Ogogogogo! Ann! Ann! Ann! Aaahhh! Ogogogogo!!!”

Reiko is the same.

The usually elegant girl is now shrieking with mad delight.

“Hyuu! Hyuu! An, an, an! Feels so good, so good!!!”

“Your pussy’s clamping down so hard. I’m about to come!”

“Wow, that’s a ton coming out. Is it all going inside? This is insane!”

When Onizuka lifts her, a massive amount of milky fluid drips from Reiko’s vagina.

Yamashita, lost in ecstasy, releases his seed into Ryoko.

Both are enveloped in deep pleasure, their consciousness fading.

“Ogo! Ogo! Nhooo!!!”

“Hyuu! Hyuu! An, an, an!”

Their voices reach a climax.

At their peak, their bodies tense, and they reach orgasm.

Reiko and Ryoko convulse, squirting and spasming.

Onizuka and Yamashita continue their relentless assault on the two.

“An! Aah… Nfu, nfu…”

Shiragin Reiko, her long black hair disheveled, is pounded in her pussy again.

Her knees buckle as she lets out sweet moans.

Hayami Ryoko, her toned athletic body lying on her back, is violated.

Her large breasts are kneaded, and her hairy anus is now being fingered.

“Naaahhh!! Nhi! Nhi! Aaaahhh!!!”

“Hiii! Aaahhh!! My pussy feels so good!! Naaahhh!!!”

The two surrender to intense pleasure.

No trace of reason remains; they’ve fallen into beings that crave only cock.

“An… an… Onizuka-kun’s cock is going so deep…”

Reiko says with a dreamy expression.

Her face, completely dominated by cock, is unrecognizably animalistic compared to her usual elegant, intellectual demeanor.

“My anus feels so good too… Hurry, shove your fingers in deeper…”

Ryoko cries out in a desperate voice.

Already beyond her limits, she occasionally loses consciousness but still craves more pleasure.

(How could I witness this and feel nothing?)

Watching the women I love being ravaged before my eyes, I’m struck with intense shock.

My heart pounds wildly, and I can barely breathe.

Onizuka, thrusting his cock into Reiko’s pussy, and Yamashita, shoving his fingers into Ryoko’s anus.

Both continue their ferocious pistoning, reveling in the girls’ reactions.

“Nhiiii!! Ah… ya… ah…”

Reiko’s sweet voice echoes around.

A massive penis plunges deep inside her, her body convulsing as she trembles with pleasure.

“Ohho!! It’s coming!!”

Onizuka shouts, releasing a massive load of semen.

The thick, milky fluid pours into Reiko’s cervix once again.

“Naaahhh!! It’s hot, so intense… So much is pouring inside… Feels so good…”

Reiko seems enveloped in a sense of fulfillment.

Her heart and body surrender to a pleasure she’s never experienced before.

Meanwhile, Ryoko continues to be tormented in her anus by Yamashita.

Multiple fingers are inserted, forcefully moved back and forth.

Her anal hair tangles around his fingers, some of it plucked out.

“Nhiiii!! No… that’s too much… It feels too good…”

“It’s fine. You won’t die from feeling too good.”

Yamashita forcibly drives his fingers deeper.

His fingertips reach her rectum, stimulating the inner walls.

“Ohho… Ahiii!!”

Ryoko’s body reacts to the unexpected pleasure.

Trembling violently, her eyes roll back as she nearly loses consciousness.

“Oguuu! It’s coming out!! Nhoooo!! Moreeee!! It’s coming out!!!”

“Aaahhh! Nhooo! So intense, so intense!!!”

Ryoko clasps her hands behind her head, spreading her athletic, beautiful legs wide.

Arching her back, she screams in an animalistic voice.

Reiko, striking an elegant pose, shakes her long black hair.

From her cute, pink pussy, a massive amount of semen drips.

“Ogo! Nhooo! Aaahhh! So intense!!”

“Nho! Aaahhh! This is crazy! Feels too good!!!”

Their voices push past their limits, completely devoid of reason.

Eyes wide, mouths agape, rolling their eyes back, they scream.

“It’s coming!! I can’t take it anymore! I’m coming, I’m coming!!”

“Coming! Coming! I’m coming!!!”

At the same time, their bodies jolt violently.

Arching their backs, stretching their legs taut, they exhale in agony.

Ryoko, drenched in sweat and love juices, climaxes intensely, unthinkable for a volleyball player.

Her mouth twists, her breathing ragged.

Reiko, her beautiful long black hair disheveled, spreads her slender white legs wide, squeezing Onizuka’s cock tightly.

Yamashita slowly pulls his fingers from Ryoko’s anus.

Onizuka’s cock is yanked out of Reiko’s pussy with a wet jupo sound.

Both Ryoko’s anus and Reiko’s pussy remain gaping, dripping semen, slightly opening and closing in a lascivious quiver.

With dazed expressions, the two get on all fours, raising their hips high and spreading their buttocks wide with both hands.

Onizuka and Yamashita smirk down at their twitching anuses.

“Fingers just won’t do… I want it deep inside…”

“Me too… I want your cock slammed into me again…”

“Who the hell called them the ‘Three Princesses’? Gyahaha!”

“Seriously, they’re just total butt pigs now! Wahahaha!”

The two laugh raucously while looking down at them.

“Aaahhh! Hurry!! Hurry and shove your long cock deep inside!!!”

“Aaahhh! I can’t take it anymore!! Quick, quick, slam that thick dick in!!!”

Their voices pierce the ears.

Their desperate cries sound as if they’re begging for life itself.

Onizuka and Yamashita, grinning, bring their cocks closer to the girls’ anuses.

“Shirogane, always acting so cool—gonna ram my cock into your anus!”

“Hayami-san’s anus is pretty stretched from my fingers. My thick cock should go in all the way to the base.”

Onizuka presses the tip of his cock against Reiko’s wide-open anus and thrusts it in with one swift motion.

“Aaahhh! Nhiiii! Your cock’s all the way inside!! Aaahhh! It’s hot! So hot!! Ahiii… Nhoooo!!!”

Raising her hips high, trembling violently, Reiko screams.

At the same time, Yamashita plunges his cock into Ryoko’s anus.

“Nhoooo!! Your long cock’s all the way in!! Ahiii! It’s piercing so deep!! Insane! Feels too good!!!”

Ryoko, too, shakes her toned, volleyball-player buttocks wildly, trembling with pleasure.

“Fuu… Feels too good, these butt bitches’ shitty holes are so tight!”

“Come on, make ‘em come quick, you butt pigs!”

Onizuka and Yamashita continue their ferocious pistoning, making the girls’ buttocks ripple.

Raising their hands, they start spanking the girls’ butts hard.

Smack! Smack! The sharp sounds echo.

“Ahiii! Don’t piston so hard!! Higyaaaaa!! It hurts! It hurts!!!”

“Aaahhh! Don’t spank my butt!!!”

The two plead with teary eyes, but as their butts turn bright red, their expressions begin to twist.

“Insane! It hurts but feels too good!! Nhooooo!!!”

“Nho! Aaahhh! It’s insane! Feels so good it’s driving me crazy!! Aaahhh! Hiiii!!!”

“Come on! Shake those butts!”

“Spread ‘em wider!”

Onizuka and Yamashita command while spanking their butts.

“Ahiii! Spank me harder! I wanna feel good!!”

“Nho! You gotta do it harder or I can’t come!!”

Ryoko reacts more intensely.

With Yamashita’s thick cock rammed into her anus, Ryoko grimaces in pain but keeps screaming.

“Aaahhh! Insane! Inside my butt! Feels so good!! Oho! Nhoooo!! This! This! It’s the best!!!”

Reiko, forgetting her elegance, lets out wild screams.

From her cute, pink anus, a massive amount of semen Yamashita ejaculated drips, staining Onizuka’s cock white.

“Ogo! Nhoooo!! So intense! It’s hitting so deep!! Hyan! Auu! Feels too good!!!”

Undergoing intense anal sex, the two scream like they’ve lost their minds.

“Aaahhh! Your cock feels so good!! I’m going crazy!!!”

“Hiii! Aaahhh! Your cock’s inside!! It’s tearing my intestines!! I’m going insane!!!”

Writhing in ecstasy, their movements are like a drug-induced frenzy.

“Higuu… Stop… It hurts but feels so good I’m going crazy…”

“Aaahhh! I can’t take it anymore… Any more and I’ll really go insane…”

Tears streaming, the two plead desperately.

But Onizuka and Yamashita ignore them, pistoning even harder.

“Fuu… Feels too good!! These butt bitches’ shitty holes are so tight!!!”

“Come on, make ‘em come quick, you butt pigs!!!”

[Smack! Jubo! Smack! Bitan! Dosu! Zubo! Bitan!]

Their anuses are stretched to their limits, the inner walls feeling as if they’re being torn with each thrust.

“Aaahhh! It’s piercing so deep!! Insane! Feels too good!!!”

“Fuu… I’m about to come! Butt bitches!”

“You butt pig! Let me come inside! Can you come with me!?”

“Aaahhh! It’s piercing so deep! Feels too good! My mind’s going blank!!!”

Onizuka pistons mercilessly.

Semen spurts from the tip of his cock, pouring into Reiko’s anus.

“Ogo! Insane! I’m gonna come! Aaahhh! I’m coming! Getting filled with semen!!!”

“Damn! Such a tight grip, Shiragin!! Here it comes!!!”

[Byuu! Byubyubyubyuurururururu!!!]

“Aaahhh… So much… Nho! Getting filled inside! It’s hot! So hot!! Ahiii! Nhoooo!!!”

Reiko’s body jolts dramatically, then collapses as if drained of strength.

Climaxing, her body trembles uncontrollably.

“Haa… haa… It’s coming! I’m coming inside, butt pig!”

“Aaahhh! Nhiii! Thrust deeper! Come inside me!!!”

Yamashita pistons fiercely into Ryoko’s anus, as if wringing out every last drop.

“Me too! I’m gonna come!! Nho! I’m coming! I’m coming!!!”

[Dobyuuuuu!! Dobobyururubyururuuru!!!]

Ryoko screams, her entire body shaking violently.

A massive amount of semen pours into her anus.

“Aaahhh! Feels too good!! I can’t take it anymore!!… If you come this much, I’ll break… It’s pouring so deep!! Feels too good!! My mind’s going blank!!!”

Semen gushes out in pulses, flooding into her anus.

Ryoko, too, reaches climax, her eyes rolling back.

Onizuka and Yamashita pull their cocks from the girls’ tightly clenching anuses with a

[Jubuu! Zubu! Bobobobobuhyo! Buhyo!]

making a tremendous sound.

The gaping anuses show no sign of closing, loosely opening and closing.

Onizuka, breathing heavily, pulls the still-convulsing Reiko close.

Yamashita, drenched in sweat and smug, collapses onto Ryoko’s back.

The moment of carelessness after hunting their prey.

At that moment, I slip into the forest’s shadows, quietly beginning to move.

Supporting my 120kg weight, I take care not to make a sound, not even rustling the fallen leaves.

With eyes adjusted to the darkness, I inch closer to Yamashita’s back.

“Ku, kukuku… I’ve fucked both Shirogane’s anus and Hayami’s anus… I’ve completed the Three Princesses’ anus collection!”

Yamashita, leaning on Ryoko’s back, exudes a conqueror’s arrogance.

That’s when it happens.

“Oraa!”

A soccer-ball kick with my full weight lands squarely in Yamashita’s stomach.

His small frame spins like a top, flying through the air like a ragdoll.

“Gah!”

Yamashita slams into the base of a tree.

His glasses, fallen mid-air, reflect the moonlight.

“This ends now.”

Without hesitation, I crush the glasses underfoot.

The black-framed lenses shatter with a grating crack.

A pale blue light briefly illuminates the darkness.

“Ugh…”

Onizuka drops to his knees.

“Ah…”

The tension drains from Ryoko and Reiko’s bodies all at once.

As if waking from a long nightmare, the three’s consciousness slowly begins to return.

The vacant glint in their eyes fades.

“I… what did I…”

Onizuka’s voice trembles.

As his memories flood back, his face twists in agony.

“You bastard…”

Onizuka’s voice turns into a beastly growl.

Bathed in moonlight, his face swirls with uncontainable rage.

“You controlled me…”

One step.

“And made me do that to Hayami-san and Shirogane…”

Another step.

“Those things…”

Yamashita, slumped on the ground, slowly raises his face.

Gone is the conqueror’s demeanor, replaced by the visage of a timid boy.

“S-Stop…”

But his words are cut off.

Onizuka’s fist mercilessly connects with Yamashita’s cheek.

“Uoooooh!”

Fists rain down like a storm, again and again.

For a moment, it’s as if the old delinquent Onizuka has resurfaced.

Yamashita’s face swells, bloodied and battered.

His grossly swollen eyes make him look like a different person.

Ryoko and Reiko watch the scene.

Large tears stream down their cheeks.

“That’s awful…”

Ryoko murmurs in a trembling voice.

“What did we…”

“Ryoko…”

Reiko embraces her friend.

“It’s over now…”

Their sobs echo through the night forest.

Their memories remain vivid. Everything—being controlled, stripped of reason, acting like beasts.

I stand frozen in place.

All I can do is watch the tears of those I love.

“Enough… that’s enough.”

Onizuka’s punishment finally begins to subside.

“Uwaaaa!”

Ryoko and Ryoko’s cries reverberate through the forest.

The beautiful ace of the volleyball team, the refined young lady—no longer there.

Only the raw, unfiltered sobs of girls freed from terror and humiliation remain.

“I’m… sorry…”

Onizuka, lowering his bloodstained fists, presses his head to the ground.

“Even if I was controlled… I… did that to you two…”

The tears don’t stop.

If anything, Onizuka’s apology makes them flow even harder.

“Uweeeen! Aaahhh! I can’t go back… After what happened in that multipurpose restroom… Destroy Yamashita’s phone too!!!”

“It was awful… My anus is all stretched out… So much came inside, it’s so full…”

Sobs like those of a young child.

As their rationality returns, emotions overflow.

I approach the two and gently embrace them with my large frame.

“It’s okay now.”

“I’ll protect you forever.”

“Ryuuji-kun…”

“Uwaaaa!”

My shirt grows wet with their tears.

But that’s okay.

These tears are tears of purification.

Yamashita, sprawled on the ground, no longer moves.

The shattered fragments of his glasses glint mournfully in the moonlight.

“Onizuka.”

I call out to him.

“Time to settle things.”

At my voice, the forest falls silent.

Ryoko and Reiko, shedding tears.

And Onizuka, standing with resolve.

“Yeah… I understand.”

Onizuka closes his eyes and faces forward.

“Please.”

“Even if I was controlled,”

The first punch lands on Onizuka’s cheek.

“Those two, so dear to me,”

Another punch.

“Put through that…”

One more.

Fists carrying 120kg of weight strike without mercy.

Onizuka staggers, nearly falling, but desperately stays on his feet.

“Uwaaan! Stop!”

Reiko cries out.

“That’s enough!”

Ryoko tries to intervene.

But this was a necessary ritual.

“Everything that happened today,”

Thud.

“All of it,”

Crack.

“Forget it!”

Smash.

Under the moonlight, my fists roar.

This isn’t punishment.

It’s a ritual of purification.

To wash away all the memories with the pain.

With the final blow, Onizuka collapses to the ground.

Blood seeps from his mouth.

But his eyes are clear.

“Thank you… so… much…”

Onizuka murmurs.

“Can you stand?”

I extend my hand.

“Y…es…”

With trembling hands, he grasps mine.

Ryoko and Reiko are still sobbing.

But their tears are different now.

They’ve transformed into pure, cleansing tears.

“Let’s go home.”

I urge the three of them.

“There’s nothing left for us here.”

Yamashita lies on the ground.

The shattered glasses.

I pick up the glasses.

The source of it all.

The only clue leading to Hyakuto.

And I take Yamashita’s smartphone as well.

There must be clues on it to save someone.

As the four of us leave the forest behind,

the light of dawn begins to gently break.
