[Scum Mob Reincarnation] I Awakened to the Bug Skill "Erotic Doujin" in an All-Ages Dating Simulation Game, so I’m Going to Enjoy All the Super-Cute Heroines Like It’s an Eroge~ The Protagonist Is Too Pathetic, so It’s Okay if I Steal the Heroines, Right? - Chapter 3 - ◇ I Will Steal the Heroines ◇

Chapter 3 – ◇ I Will Steal the Heroines ◇

The protagonist is a nondescript young man with black hair, partly hidden eyes, and a physique that is slightly muscular compared to average, just taller than the heroines.

A typical, plain male lead.

At this point, he only has a slight crush on Yuna.

In the game, the protagonist doesn’t make it clear how much he likes the heroines until the end.

It’s only hinted that he likes the main heroine, Yuna. But in reality, he likes everyone else aside from Yuna.

This is a common setting in dating simulation games. I don’t think that’s a bad thing in itself. If only this weren’t reality.

To prevent the heroines from becoming unhappy in just one year, I have no choice but to separate them from that man.

Sorry, but you’ll have to settle down with someone else in your future.

The protagonist’s default name is Kouma Rakuto, a name derived from Yuna’s nickname for him: Lacto.

A well-balanced beauty.

A healthy and sporty beauty.

A fragile beauty.

A erotic beauty.

A stylish beauty.

These heroines are stunningly cute, their charm further accentuated by the alluring uniform designs.

This is why the game “The Blooming Season and the Cherry-Colored Maidens” is sometimes jokingly referred to as a “pre-ero game” in fan slang.

I am aware of the desire swelling up inside me.

If only the conditions for the ridiculously-named skill “Erotic Doujin” were right to activate, I could do whatever I wanted with the girls.

And I would.

I don’t wish for that guy to be unhappy, nor do I particularly mind if he finds happiness with one of the heroines.

But if there’s even a possibility that one or all of these girls could face misfortune by this time next year, I cannot ignore it.

SakuSaku has a bad ending, or rather, a scenario in which the ending is reached without the protagonist becoming lovers with the heroines. In that route, the protagonist can’t contact any of the heroines.

They go missing. Yet, the protagonist casually assumes, “They’ll probably reach out eventually.”

Then, a package containing a DVD arrives in the mail at the protagonist’s house, and the screen goes dark. The words “The end” appear and the end credits begin.

What’s on the DVD is never revealed.

No matter how many times you play the game, the answer is never revealed.

It was the same even after completing all the game CGs for every heroine, including the hidden heroine.

And the suspicious man often seen lurking around the protagonist’s home?

Me, Kirishima Ryoji.

But that’s all there is to it.

What happened to them? Did they return to the protagonist afterwards, or not?

None of this was mentioned in the setting materials or fan discs

It’s an all-ages dating simulation game with a fancy name like “The Blooming Season and the Cherry-Colored Maidens,” so it’s kinda insane that the writers decided to include such an unsettling ending.

The game’s reputation as a “pre-ero game” stems not just from its charming heroines but also from such ominous undertones.

And why is that?

Anyone with a good sense or knowledge of a certain genre will have figured it out after hearing about the DVD.

This is a common plot in adult works, in so-called “NTR” stories or games.

It’s the genre I detest the most, so I’m afraid to go into detail, so I’ll stop here.

I know I’m being persistent, but “SakuSaku” is for all ages and does not contain any adult elements.

Well, as you’d expect from a dating simulation game, there are some ecchi developments, but there are no sexual depictions that cross the line.

What that ending really means remains a mystery.

But in that extremely disturbing ending, this man named Kirishima Ryoji appears as an antagonist. Because of that, he is also the man most chosen to play the leading role in the SakuSaku doujinshi world.

I’ve made up my mind. Now that I’ve been reincarnated here, I’m going to crush that disturbing future.

I don’t fancy myself a champion of justice or claim that what I’m doing is virtuous.

After all, my cheat skill, Erotic Doujin, exists solely to steal heroines with dubious methods.

And there’s no way I wouldn’t have sex with the heroines if the opportunity comes.

I’ve died and been reincarnated, so I’ll do what I want.

The protagonist and the heroines entered the school building. As I watched them off, I started to think about which heroine I should approach first.

T/N: Dem this MC, he’s self-justificating himself having sex with the heroines as saving them!
