A crossover anime/manga story, set in everyday Tokyo, but within a loop of a game.

"It's good that you have the courage to play with abstract concepts against me, but that's all that's worth praising."

"Y-you...Utsunomiya-kun..."

Not to be outdone, Fujiwara Chika stood up, clenched her fists, and looked determined, her face showing a resolute expression.

"One day, I will definitely defeat you!"

"Hehe, looking forward to your challenge."

While sitting behind the student council president's desk, Kaguya Shinomiya overheard the conversation between Chika Fujiwara and Asagiri, and a strange sense of foreboding suddenly arose in her heart.

How does it feel...

Has Fujiwara Chika, who calls herself a love detective, strayed from her original purpose in contacting Asagiri?

Ahead... lies a road of no return!

……

Ten minutes later, at the entrance of the private Shuchiin Academy.

"Well then, Asuna, Asagiri, I'll be going now~"

Kotoko Iwanaga waved and greeted Asuna Yuuki and Asagiri. Then, she looked at Asuna Yuuki meaningfully and shook her head helplessly before the latter could say anything.

"Although I wanted to warn you not to sneak around while I'm handling monster requests, you definitely wouldn't listen, so I won't waste my breath. I'd rather use that energy on my nighttime activities with my handsome boyfriend..."

As Kotoko Iwanaga's words became increasingly outrageous, Asuna Yuuki quickly interrupted her, blushing.

"Don't say such offensive things here."

"Anyway, that's it. As the god of wisdom, I'm very busy. Bye-bye~"

After Kotoko Iwanaga got into her family's black luxury car and drove away, Asuna Yuuki sighed helplessly.

"Honestly, she just went through such a brutal dungeon a few days ago, but she really hasn't changed at all..."

After making fun of Kotoko Iwanaga's abstract personality, Asuna Yuuki looked at Asagiri beside her, stared at her profile, and smiled shyly and gently.

"Hui said she's going to be studying hard for her upcoming final exams... so it'll just be the two of us today. Shall we go out together...?"

Before Yuuki Asuna could finish saying the word "date," Asagiri waved her hand and said firmly.

"Walk."

Asuna Yuuki couldn't help but chuckle, covering her mouth as she let out a soft laugh.

"I'm happy, but you agreed way too quickly, didn't you? Did you already intend to invite me on a date?"

"Of course, I've even thought of a date location."

Asagiri took Yuuki Asuna's hand and then smiled as she spoke.

"It's 4:10 now. We can go see a movie first, and then have dinner together afterward. After dinner, we can go to the supermarket to buy some household necessities, and then go home together, and then..."

"Stop, stop, stop."

After such a long period of contact, Asuna Yuuki had come to understand Asagiri's personality very well. When he said "then," she raised her hand to cover his mouth, her face slightly flushed.

"And then... we'll talk about it when we get home."

……

Half an hour later, inside a movie theater in Shibuya.

"Really..."

Although the movie hadn't started yet, Asuna Yuuki, holding a cup of milk tea, stared at the dark movie screen with a hint of nervousness on her delicate face. She looked at Asagiri beside her, who seemed eager to try something, and said in a tone that was half reproachful and half coquettish.

"Why do you have to watch horror movies... knowing I'm afraid of these things..."

Asagiri replied in a very serious tone.

"It is precisely because you are afraid that you need to challenge your weaknesses!"

"Stop it."

Asuna Yuuki glanced down at the armrest between her and Asagiri's seats, which had been lifted up by Asagiri, and muttered under her breath.

"You just want me to be scared by the movie later, then fall into your arms and enjoy watching me tremble and struggle to suppress my fear, right? Your tastes are so perverted."

After saying that, Asuna Yuuki gently bit her pink lips again and lowered her voice.

"Don't take this opportunity to do anything strange later..."

"of course not."

Asagiri took Yuuki Asuna's hand and replied with a smile.

"There are night-light cameras in the movie theater. If I'm going to do anything strange, I'll wait until I get home."

"Huh? There were security cameras in the movie theater?"

"Of course."

Asagiri and Asuna Yuuki intertwined their fingers and began to earnestly explain the facts.

"I once conceived of an eroge (adult game) where the player would play the role of a cinema manager, and while some erotic movies were playing, the player would collect footage of female characters and their boyfriends through cameras in the theater, and then use the collected footage to 'seduce' the female characters. Unfortunately, before this eroge even started production, I became a player. Sigh, what a loss to the eroge industry."

"Forehead……"

Asuna Yuuki looked speechless and said helplessly.

"You really enjoy being a butter maker..."

"That's art."

Asagiri nodded, then explained in an unusually serious tone.

"In this increasingly restless society where people can hardly understand each other and where malice and scheming abound, only butter is friendly. Even if you are not satisfied after purchasing it, consumers will only offer kind suggestions. Not to mention, if you make truly exquisite butter, you will receive the sincere gratitude and admiration of players. There is no mutual attack, no malicious comments, only harmony, allowing people with different personalities who do not know each other at all but meet online to build bonds with each other. This is the supreme art."

After saying this, Asagiri gripped Yuuki Asuna's hand tightly, turned her head to look directly into Yuuki Asuna's beautiful eyes, and said sincerely.

"I will not keep this artistic glory to myself. Now, Tokyo's number one butter shooter sincerely invites Ms. Yuuki Asuna to experience the highest realm of art together."

"what?"

Seeing Yuuki Asuna's slightly dazed expression, Asagiri chose to speak frankly.

"Simply put, I hope you'll wear a bunny girl outfit tonight."

Upon hearing this, Asuna Yuuki blushed and, after hesitating for a few seconds, leaned close to Asagiri's ear and whispered something.

"But I haven't ordered my clothes yet..."

Asagiri seemed to have anticipated this, and interrupted her directly.

"It's okay, I ordered it, and it was delivered to my home a long time ago."

"what?"

Asuna Yuuki didn't expect Asagiri to suddenly say something like that. She didn't ask Asagiri how he knew her measurements, since he would definitely say something like, "I'm a professional eroge maker. I can give you precise measurements just by looking at you."

The blush on her face became more pronounced, and a layer of mist appeared in her eyes. She leaned close to Asagiri's ear and spoke softly in a seductive tone that was both shy and coy, yet also filled with anticipation.

"If you do well today... as a reward for you... these requests are not impossible to fulfill."

Chapter 58 Bunny Girl Asuna.

Two hours later, at the entrance of the movie theater.

"Huh...scared me to death..."

Seeing Yuuki Asuna looking shaken, clutching her arm and trembling slightly, Asagiri couldn't help but chuckle and tease her.

"I thought a mere horror movie wouldn't scare you at all. I didn't expect that after experiencing so much, you're still so timid."

"I...I'm not a coward!"

Asuna Yuuki, somewhat embarrassed, looked up at Asagiri with her delicate face and argued forcefully.

"It's just because I couldn't destroy those things that I was suddenly startled... um..."

Asuna Yuuki was speaking when Asagiri suddenly kissed her on the lips. After a brief moment of panic, she wrapped her arms around Asagiri's back and instinctively began to respond passionately. After the nearly ten-second kiss finally ended, a blush spread across Asuna Yuuki's face.

She looked at the crowd passing by the movie theater entrance, and shyly reached out to push Asagiri's shoulder, playfully scolding him.

"This is still on the street, how could you... really."

Asagiri's eyes were incredibly clear, devoid of any distracting thoughts, containing only the purest longing.

"I can't hold back anymore."

"You...how could you lose control so quickly? Didn't you just talk to Hui last night..."

“Hui is Hui, and you are you. You cannot replace each other. I calculate the cooldown time for each of you individually.”

Upon hearing this, Asuna Yuuki sighed helplessly, rubbing her forehead.

"What kind of twisted logic is that...?"

Yuuki Asuna first made this comment, then stood on tiptoe and gently placed her fair hand on Asagiri's head, speaking in a doting tone as if coaxing a child.

"Sweetie, let's do those things after we finish eating and shopping, and when we get home, okay? Be a good girl."

Asagiri grasped Yuuki Asuna's hand that was stroking her head and said with a smile.

"Are you treating me like a child?"

“Sometimes you really are like a child, like always eating fast food, going to bed without drying your hair after a shower, and also…”

"Stop chanting, Master, stop chanting."

Seeing Asagiri feign pain, Yuuki Asuna paused for a moment, then angrily clenched her fist.

"You think I'm long-winded? Humph."

Asagiri shook her head and replied sincerely.

"No, don't make false accusations."

"Then I don't care."

Asuna Yuuki stomped her foot in feigned annoyance, then couldn't help but smile, crossing her arms and deliberately turning her head away.

"As punishment for making me angry, you have to come with me to the aquarium to see the dolphins tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? No way."

To Asuna Yuuki's surprise, Asagiri gave a negative answer to her request, which was clearly a pleading attempt.

"I'm going to meet two very important people tomorrow."

"A very important person?"

Upon hearing this, Asuna Yuuki frowned slightly, staring at Asagiri with a hint of wariness, and asked in a low voice.

"Is it a woman?"

"One woman and one man."

"You...you're not going to see that Sakurakawa guy, are you...?"

"The woman is your mother, and the man is your father."

Yuuki Asuna was stunned for several seconds before realizing that Asagiri wasn't being sarcastic, and she couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

"My parents? Are they coming to Tokyo? How come I didn't know about this?"

"They asked me to pass on their message to you."

"This……"

Asuna Yuuki sighed and chuckled wryly.

"Your social skills are amazing! You've only met my mother once, and haven't even met my father yet, but you're already as close as family. This way, I don't have to worry about conflicts with my family after marriage..."

Just as she was speaking, Asuna Yuuki noticed Asagiri's meaningful gaze, and her face flushed red. She waved her hands, trying to cover it up, and explained.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. It's not that I'm already thinking about getting married in the future. I don't really want to marry you... No, that's not right either. I do want to marry you, but... but, oh dear, I don't know what to say."

After rambling on for a few moments, Asuna Yuuki stomped her foot, her pretty face flushed, and glared at Asagiri with an annoyed expression.

"Alright, let's go eat. It's all your fault."
