Bab 32: Chapter 32: New Member
Actually, Ino had already lost.
She was in love, after all. As for how it happened, she herself doesn't know.
(Maybe it was that time)
Ino recalled a few years ago.
She remembered it like it was yesterday—the devastated look and the gentle smile on Yuki's face. Something inside her tightened back then.
She had never seen Yuki like that before, but witnessing him in such a situation, still smiling, made Ino run into his arms.
She wanted to offer comfort, be support, have him lean on her, and make him smile again as always.
Sometimes, a woman falls in love not with a man's courage but with his vulnerability.
The maternal instinct every woman possesses immediately activates upon seeing the weakness of her beloved. Weakness can be fatal.
Perhaps, if Yuki hadn't regained his memories, he might have fallen for Ino that day, and maybe a couple would have been born.
(Who am I kidding... I lost, and in an incredible way)
Ino knew it, but still, she wouldn't admit defeat... not until he confesses first.
This was war!
The one who confesses first loses.
"Is Mr. Inoichi here?"
Trying to change the subject, Yuki looked at Ino, embracing her arm.
"Yes~ Dad is here... What? Do you want to introduce yourself as his son-in-law? And swear eternal love to this beauty?" With a mocking smile, Ino defiantly looked at Yuki.
"Don't joke, your father will kill me before that." Giving him a small hit on the head, Yuki shook his head. Ino's father, unlike Hiashi, had strong control over his daughter.
He loves Ino a lot, so on more than one occasion, he has tried to catch Yuki and interrogate him.
"Don't worry~ Dad will understand if you ask for my hand properly."
With a blank look, Yuki looked at Ino, who had a radiant smile while bringing up such a topic.
Yuki had been wondering, but people in this world have strong feelings, so much so that as children, they tend to choose their partners. An example was his mom and dad; according to his mother, she and his dad met when they were little and sustained their relationship for over 15 years.
15 years!
A relationship of boyfriends for that long in his old world was illogical, not to mention their short married life. But Yuki had a hunch that they would continue to love each other.
Even he was affected by this; his emotions were strong, jealousy, hatred, love—everything was more than he had felt in his past life.
"You're 11 years old; you better focus on your studies, little precocious girl."
"Ouch." Patting his forehead, Yuki shook his head at Ino.
"You'll definitely ask for my hand in the future! That's for sure!"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say." Waving his hand carelessly, Yuki entered his residence. Observing Yuki's attitude, Ino pouted before following him.
(Another clan)
------
It was night when Yuki returned home.
Looking at the sky, Yuki decided to rest; he had a little mental stress. On more than one occasion, Inoichi wanted to kill him, all because of Ino's mischief.
He still remembers the dark aura around Ino's father; Yuki didn't know what to think. His daughter started it all.
Sighing about this, at least he got his support.

[Mikoto Misaka is online]
[Yuno Gasai is online]
[Yuki Uchiha (Champion) is online]
[Inori Yuzuhira is online]
[Yami is online]
A moment of awkward silence.
Yuki was confused; he didn't know why this chat room decided to increase the number of heroes.
Frowning, he decided to break this silence.
"Yuki Uchiha (Champion): Hello, welcome new member."
"Mikoto Misaka: Seriously?! New member? What are you thinking, Uchiha-san?! You haven't even come to my world yet and you decided to invite someone else!"
"Yuno Gasai: Yuki! What does this mean?! You promised to come to my world! I don't want more people stealing my time with you! Kick her out! And you, bitch, get out of here!"
"Yami: Reward?"
"Inori Yuzuhira: Hello? New member?
As always, both Mikoto and Yuno had a great impact on this. Yuno even started insulting the new member.
Only Yami, as always, asked for her reward, and Inori greeted with a slight doubt.
"Yuki Uchiha (Champion): Everyone calm down, I didn't invite this person... The chat room randomly decided it."
"Yuno Gasai: The chat room? What's wrong with this thing? Is it malfunctioning?"
"Mikoto Misaka: Seriously? Aren't you the owner? What's wrong with this chat room?"
"Yuki Uchiha (Champion): I don't know, and I'm just like all of you—a user... but at certain intervals, a new member will join."
"Yuno Gasai: Huh? How annoying!"
"Mikoto Misaka: Really? Then who created this thing?"
No one answered Mikoto's question; Yuki wanted to tell them that a goddess gave him this system, but that was unnecessary. Having more knowledge in their little heads sometimes isn't good.
He thought he would tell them when he could go to their respective worlds.
"Mikoto Misaka: Anyway, it's sure to be a headache trying to reason with this thing... Hello, new member.
"Yami: Hello new member" x2
"Inori Yuzuhira: Hello new member" x3
"Yuki Uchiha (Champion): Hello new member" x4.
"Princess of the Black Belly: Hiiii~"

In a small nation, there was a very beautiful teenager with pale skin, platinum hair, and shining blue eyes in the darkness of the night.
She looked with interest at the floating screen in front of her.
She put her hand on her lips and couldn't help but smile at the various messages the chat room sent.
Especially with Yuno Gasai's message; this girl immediately started scolding the new member.
She wondered what kind of people they were, as they were very interesting to her.
However, another name also caught her attention.
Yuki Uchiha (Champion).
She looked at this name and immediately knew that he was special; among the members, his name stood out the most.
She also saw that he was the leader of this group.
A few minutes ago, the floating screen appeared in front of her.
Thinking it was an enemy attack, she quickly took her weapon.
But after several seconds, only one message was seen on that screen.
"Do you desire adventures? Do you want to meet other worlds? Do you want to experience romance? Do you want to have the best genes for your future children? Then join this chat room; the Champion has chosen you as his companion."
[Yes] [No]
This message quickly caught her interest; it was as if this floating screen really knew her and was telling her all her desires.
With a smile on her face, she pressed [Yes].
