Chapter 321: Special Privileges for Daughter
At 7 pm, the Trial of Courage officially begins, and everyone has arrived at their pre-arranged hiding spots.
Standing at the entrance is Komachi, dressed as a cat demon, announcing the arrival of the first group.
They quickly reach a checkpoint where Yukino is guarding, responsible for explaining the rules of the event to the arriving groups.
Hachiman is stationed at the last few checkpoints, where his plans have already been arranged. Now, all he has to do is wait for the targets to arrive.
As he waits, a familiar figure enters his view.
Dressed in a pale blue kimono with her long black hair cascading down her back, it is Yukino.
The girl also notices Hachiman and walks towards him.
Seeing that Yukino seems to have something to say to him, Hachiman asks, "What's up, Yukino?"
Coming close to him, the girl crouches down as well.
"Are you really going to use that method?"
"It's the only way." Hachiman nods.
"The exclusion of Tsurumi has become a fixed situation, and in order to change this, all the interpersonal relationships around her must be destroyed."
"When humans encounter unresistable danger, what they think about is preserving themselves, even if it means sacrificing those around them."
"By exposing this ugly side, the group will immediately disintegrate."
"As long as we break up this group, Tsurumi will have a chance to build friendships with the other "hostages" left behind."
"But..."
Yukino tries to say something, but Hachiman interrupts her.
"The plan has already started, stopping now would just be a waste of effort."
"You can rest assured, I promise to use this method only once, like a special privilege for our daughter."
As expected, upon hearing the word "daughter," Yukino's face turns a shade of pink, and she hits Hachiman lightly.
"Don't talk nonsense, who wants to have a daughter with a guy like you."
At that moment, a beam of moonlight shines down, illuminating the girl's flushed face and her tempting, red lips.
As the moonlight shines down, it illuminates the girl's flushed face and her tempting, red lips. This makes Hachiman feel closer to her. Seeing his actions, Yukino realizes he wants to kiss her. Although she should avoid it, the girl stays in place, as if waiting for Hachiman's kiss.
Hachiman gets closer, and the distance between them becomes shorter. At this moment, he can feel Yukino's fragrant breath. As he looks at Yukino's face, he decides to shorten the last bit of distance and taste those captivating red lips.
However, just as he is about to succeed, his phone beeps, indicating a text message. Although the sound is not loud, it is like thunder in this moment, interrupting the two. Yukino reacts and pushes Hachiman away, her face still flushed with redness.
"You...we..."
Seeing the girl push him away, Hachiman understands that he won't have a chance today.
"Today is as far as we go. Komachi sent a text message saying that Tsurumi's group has already set off. I should get ready as well. Yukino, just wait here for a bit."
He says this and gets up, heading towards Yumiko and Tobe's location.
As Hachiman walks away, Yukino remains crouched, her hand on her chest. In there, her heart is beating faster than usual.
Why...
She should have pushed him away in the beginning, but why didn't she do so?
She doesn't understand, she doesn't know, she isn't clear about it.
When Hachiman arrives at the designated spot, he sees Yumiko and Tobe engaged in casual conversation. Yumiko notices him and waves.
"You're finally here, guy. Are we about to start?"
Squatting next to Yumiko, Hachiman smiles and replies, "Just a moment ago, Komachi sent me a message saying that Tsurumi's group has already entered."
"Well then, let's hope this goes successfully," Yumiko says, reassured.
At this point, Yumiko seems to have something on her mind and complains, "Why do you have to make me play the bad guy, don't I look nice?"
Tobe joins in, "Exactly, I don't look like a bad guy either."
Hachiman raises his eyebrows and unapologetically responds to Tobe, "With your long hair, you look like a delinquent teenager."
As for Yumiko, Hachiman says, "With your blonde hair and powerful aura, your image is similar to that of a delinquent big sister in manga."
Upon hearing this, Yumiko becomes annoyed, "What do you mean delinquent big sister? I'm clearly a queen. Be careful or I'll punch you!" She even swings her fists at Hachiman.
Seeing Yumiko's confident demeanor, Hachiman raises his eyebrows. It seems he needs to assert his dominance.
Hachiman then directs Tobe, "Tobe, the time is almost up. Go to the other side to block their escape route."
"I understand," Tobe nods and hides himself in the bushes on the other side of the road.
After checking that Tobe is well-hidden, Hachiman looks at Yumiko crouching nearby. He then smirks mischievously, ready to put his plan into action.
The girl is currently wearing a red short skirt, and since she is crouched down, her round hips are directly displayed in front of him. At this moment, Yumiko is innocently playing with her hair, unaware of the danger about to happen to her. Slowly moving behind the girl, Hachiman opens his arms and directly hugs her.
Suddenly being hugged from behind surprised Yumiko, who freezes for a moment before reacting angrily. "What are you doing, you bastard?!" she exclaims, feeling a little embarrassed. She didn't want to be seen like this by Tobe, who was still on the other side.
"Of course, I'm hugging my lovely Yumiko," Hachiman smirks, blowing lightly into the girl's ear.
As the girl shivers, she tries to struggle free from his grip. "Let me go," she demands. But her efforts were futile against Hachiman's strength.
Instead, he twists the girl's face towards him and kisses her alluring red lips. "Ah," Yumiko lets out a soft moan in response.
