Reincarnated Into The World Of A Rape Erotic Game ~ Since The Game World Has Become Reality... I Want To Save The Heroines~ - Chapter 14: Half-Asleep

“Come on ♪. Toyokazu-kun ♡. Wake up…?”

I felt like I could hear a voice. When I opened my eyes slightly… Kagurazaka Yuuka was there. She had long straight lavender-pink hair that reached her waist. Whether it was because of the light or because it had a natural luster, I unfortunately couldn’t tell, but it looked radiant and beautiful anyway… As expected of the main heroine.

‘Hm? Main heroine…? Was I… playing a game just now…?’

If I could make an excuse for that moment, it would be that I had been thinking I was playing a game. If you asked me what kind of game I was playing, well, I couldn’t really answer that…

‘Was I… playing Kagurazaka Yuuka’s scenario? No good… I can’t think clearly… but… if I reach out toward Kagurazaka Yuuka, it feels like I could touch her…’

I slowly extended my hand toward Yuuka…

“Geez… what? Are you half-asleep or something?”

Even as Yuuka said this with an exasperated tone at my outstretched hand, she placed her own hand over mine. Our fingers naturally intertwined. From the outside, it would have looked like lovers confirming each other’s touch and warmth by holding hands. I instinctively reached out with my other hand and pulled Yuuka toward me─

“Wait!?”

─Thump… I felt Yuuka’s weight with my whole body. What I felt against my chest was something small but soft that changed shape as it was pressed against me. At the same time, what I felt on my face was the sensation of cheek against cheek that made me want to keep nuzzling against it. What tickled my nostrils was perhaps the sweet scent of flowers? Or maybe shampoo…? In any case, it was a wonderful smell that I wanted to keep breathing in…

“T-Toyokazu-kun!? Too close, too close, too close! Don’t rub cheeks like that!?”

Not wanting to lose any of these sensations, I wrapped my arms around Yuuka’s back. When I hugged her tightly with both arms as though embracing a body pillow, she was strangely warm and soft and felt so comfortable…

“This… is really calming…”

“…Eh!?”

I thought I heard a strange voice near my ear, but it was probably my imagination… Come to think of it, could recent games let you experience scents too…? Was this game VR?

“Sniff sniff… really… smells good…”

“Kyaa!? D-don’t… s-smell me so much!?”

“…Yuuka.”

“Nyaa!? T-Toyokazu-kun!? It’s touching, it’s touching! Something hard is touching me!?”

“…chomp…”

“Mmm~ D-don’t bite my neck… it’ll leave a mark…”

“Suck… suck…”

“Don’t suck either… mm…”

My consciousness grew distant──

CLATTER!

“Onii-chan~♪ Your beloved sister came to wake you… wait, what are you doing!? Yuuka-san!?”

“Ah!? M-Mei-chan!? I-I-I-I wasn’t doing anything!? M-more importantly, help me!”

“G-get away from onii-chan! Yuuka-san!!”

“I-I~!? It’s not me!? I-I didn’t want to do this…”

“Onii-chan wouldn’t do such things!”

“T-Toyokazu-kun! He seems to be half-asleep… ah… no!? Not there… oh… mmh.”

“What!? Why’re you making such lewd sounds!?”

“Mm… ah… this is… different… Toyokazu-kun is… mmmh~”

“Anyway, get away!”

“T-that’s why! It’s not me…”

What!? What, what? It was so noisy and chaotic I couldn’t sleep!

“…What’s… all the commotion…?”

“Y-you… finally… a-anyway, let go! Because of Toyokazu-kun, I got wet and have to go change my underwear!”

♢♢♢

When I woke up, I was surprised… Yuuka was clinging to me with no gap between us, fidgeting around… As I listened to the story, it seemed this had happened because I had been half-asleep. Well, there was no way Yuuka would do such a thing to me… Hahaha… I was really sorry.

Probably, since yesterday was only the second day of high school and I had already left early and done various things, I might have been more tired than I thought.

Anyway, now that I was fully awake, I got up and headed to the washroom to wash my face, then headed to the dining table. The whole family was already gathered. Today Yuuka was there too, sitting in her usual seat. I sat in the seat next to her and decided to apologize again for what had happened earlier…

“Sorry about earlier, Yuuka. I seemed to be really half-asleep…”

“Y-yes, you were! I-I was so surprised!”

“…I bet Yuuka-san definitely thought it was a lucky break…”

“I-I didn’t think such a thing!”

“…I wonder about that.”

“Mei? Yuuka wouldn’t think such things, right? She’d probably think more like ‘don’t touch me without permission’, right?”

Mei could be a bit harsh toward Yuuka, which was troublesome. The troubling thing was that she seemed to have a bit of a brother complex… Well, since she was the world’s cutest little sister, I didn’t treat her coldly either.

“Mei, don’t say strange things to Yuuka-chan, okay? Act the same way as Ai-chan does, alright? And you need to graduate from being a brother-obsessed girl soon, you know? You can’t stay clingy to your onii-chan forever, right? There are three bride candidates after all…”

“Eh? I won’t! And I absolutely won’t accept such a thing!”

An immediate answer!? And what was mom saying anyway? Where were these three bride candidates? Yuuka’s face turned bright red with anger, probably thinking she was being counted as one of my bride candidates.

“Really, Mei… you should say yes there, you know? Honestly…”

Mom said to Mei with exasperation. Since she’d been saying “onii-chan, onii-chan” all this time, I felt a little lonely thinking that would disappear someday.

“Well, Mei has been a brother-obsessed girl since she was little~ It might be impossible for her to change suddenly, right?”

“As expected of dad! You understand me~~”

“Sigh~ Yuuka-chan… sorry about Mei, okay?”

“N-no, I don’t mind at all…?”

“Thank you. Well, since we don’t have much time, let’s all eat together.”

“Yes!”

Today, dinner seemed to be scrambled eggs along with bacon, toast, and salad for breakfast. Everything looked delicious.

“Yeah. Today’s dinner is delicious too, mom. This salad dressing is especially good. It’s homemade, right?”

I always made sure to give my impressions of the cooking. I think the person who made it would be happier to hear feedback. Making meals every day was hard work. It was also to show my gratitude.

“Hehehe… I see. It’s delicious? It’s delicious, he says, right Yuuka-chan ♪?”

“Eh? Yuuka made this?”

“U-um… is it really… delicious?”

She didn’t need to ask so hesitantly, I didn’t lie about these things.

“Yeah. It’s just to my taste, I guess. I especially like how it has a bit of tartness to it.”

“Like!?”

Hey… why was she so surprised? We were talking about the taste of the dressing, right?

“…! R-right! That’s good then. I-I see… it’s delicious…♪”

“Oh my… that’s wonderful, Yuuka-chan ♪.”

“Y-yes! It’s thanks to you, mother-in-law!”

“Ugh… I’m losing to Yuuka-san in feminine skills!? M-mom! Teach me cooking too!!”

“You… I’ve been trying to teach you all this time but you never wanted to learn.”

“I changed my mind!”

Well, trying hard was a good thing, dad said while reasoning with Mei. As for me, I savored this delicious meal.
