章 559: Learning to Say NO Loudly!

"What kind of play... is this?" Kawaki muttered to himself. "Hey, this gathering is not just about preferences for women; even XP will be exposed. I wonder how people around me perceive me... Am I seen as a man with weird tastes?"

At that moment, Hasegawa suddenly noticed something and turned back, unable to find Tsukuyo anywhere. He glanced at one of the Hinowamarus behind Kawaki and spoke lightly, "Hey, if you don't want to go over there, just say it. Why stay silent from beginning to end? Shouldn't they have their thoughts even if they are virtual characters?"

"Hey! Can you even tell them apart?!" Kawaki exclaimed in surprise. "You couldn't possibly distinguish between them before! You couldn't even remember the faces of hostesses you've met once!"

"Don't compare me to you," Hasegawa retorted disdainfully. Then, he glanced at the Hinowamaru beside Kawaki again and said, "Did you hear what I said earlier? If you don't want to go, just say it. Why bother going? Your personality is extraordinary. Remember, if you can't express your feelings, others will never know, and you'll always feel aggrieved."

After hearing this, the Hinowamaru stopped cursing at Kawaki incessantly, quietly responded, and then lowered her head, slowly returning to Hasegawa's side. However, no one noticed the slight blush on her face as she lowered her head...

"You should learn something from that Hinowamaru!" Kawaki pointed to the Hinowamaru beside him, still angrily cursing at him, and complained with frustration, "At least reach that level! Just stay quiet and behave yourself!"

Even after saying that, the Hinowamaru showed no signs of stopping her verbal assault. Seeing this, Kawaki turned back to Kondo and said, "Hey, why don't you exchange girlfriends with me?"

"No~" Kondo's Kyuubei-chan pouted cutely in his arms. "I only want Otae~"

"That's right~" Kondo's face lit up with a perverted smile again.

"Stop it, you damn woman! What's with that 'no~'?! It's not cute at all!" Kawaki angrily shouted, then hugged himself and repeated, "Say 'I want to be with Kawaki' again!"

Just then, the Hinowamaru belonging to Kawaki stepped forward and said, "I will avenge Okita Sougo~."

"Not you!!"

"Even if you say that there's nothing I can do~" The Otae behind Hasegawa retorted.

"Not you either!" Kawaki complained, veins popping on his forehead and eyes bulging. "Stop it! If you don't, I'll beat you all up!"

After that, Kawaki returned to Hasegawa, still searching for something, and said, "Hey! Get your two seemingly normal girlfriends..."

Before he could finish, Kawaki stopped speaking because he noticed that the Hinowamaru and Otae beside Hasegawa had... started to become abnormal... or, instead, broken. Although they had smiling faces in front of Hasegawa, they looked like devils when they were behind him, revealing their ugly faces with extremely resentful expressions as they tightly grabbed each other's necks. By now, the red handprints on the necks of Hinowamaru and Otae were visible to the naked eye.

"Huh? What did you say?" Hasegawa turned back, puzzled.

"Nothing," Kawaki said silently as he watched the Hinowamaru and Otae return to their normal state before Hasegawa.

"But seriously, where is she?" Hasegawa looked around again and muttered softly, "I thought Tsukuyo said she was going to participate in some 'World's Number One' competition."

By the way, as soon as Hasegawa turned his head, Hinowamaru and Otae once again started grimacing at each other, seemingly determined not to stop until one of them was dead.

"Please stop fighting," Hasegawa's light words made both Hinowamaru and Otae stop simultaneously.

"Could it be...!" Hinowamaru suddenly realized something. "Could it be that our beloved has already noticed?!"

"The ugly faces we've shown in our competition for our beloved..." Otae looked incredulous.

"But even so, our beloved hasn't rejected us..." Hinowamaru looked moved.

"Ah~! I love you so much, my dear!" Suddenly, Otae hugged Hasegawa's arm tightly again. "I will never leave you~!"

"Me too!" Hinowamaru timely attached herself to Hasegawa's other side. "Miss Otae, let's get along peacefully! My dear... can satisfy both of us! In every sense of the word..."

"Yes! Absolutely!" Hinowamaru's face was filled with excitement.

"What is this? A harem? An R18 harem game? Why did this idiot turn this into an R18 harem game?" Kawaki complained expressionlessly.

"Hey, Yorozuya, Kabukicho, is there a protagonist there?" Suddenly, Kondo pointed in a specific direction.

"Huh? Isn't that Kagura?" Kawaki looked at the casually dressed Kagura with her hair tied up in a red bow and felt uncertain.

"If you look closely, it's quite similar," Kondo carefully observed Kagura, who was not far away, and murmured, "But it should be a girlfriend created by someone else."

"How could it be~" Hasegawa pinched his nose and waved his hand, showing disgust. "Even if the game materializes, it's going too far to have the stench of natto materialize. I can smell it from this far away."

"Yeah, no one would like that kind of weird woman," Kawaki said disdainfully.

"But look..." With that, Kondo pointed to Kagura, who was happily waving and running in a specific direction, "Her boyfriend..."

"Kosan, where did you go?" Kagura stopped before a confident man and coquettishly buried herself in his arms. "Really, can't live without Kosan even for a moment~ Hmm~ Hmm~ Hmm~."

Seeing Kagura cosplaying as herself, Kawaki immediately rushed forward, kicked Kagura's head hard with a dark face, and angrily shouted, "Who the hell is Kosan?!"

Then, he pointed at the cosplaying Kagura and complained, "Why did you insist on using Kagura to cosplay as Gin-san?! This is a showcase of girlfriends, you know!"

"Hmm~" Kagura tapped her chin with her index finger, pouting as if she didn't understand. "What are you saying? It's so absurd. I'm Kagura, the ideal girlfriend created in the game. I don't know anything else~"

"What kind of game is this?" Kawaki clenched his fists with white eyes and complained mercilessly. "Is it called 'Create Women Who Make People Furious'? Should we call it 'Furious' for short?"

"Please stop it. My boyfriend is this Kosan," Kagura said seriously, raising her hand and gesturing, secretly adding to her mind: [It's too late for you to be jealous now. Experience the same feeling as me! Having your beloved stolen by someone else! Ahahaha...]

Seeing Kagura laughing wildly, Kawaki couldn't help but complain: [What's wrong with this woman? Did she hallucinate in her hallucination again? Hey!]

"Whose Hinowamaru and whose is my Hinowamaru? Who will win?" It's worth watching. Get ready to wash your tits [beep] and wait!"

Seeing Kagura leaving after saying these words, leaving behind only this sentence, Kawaki loudly complained, "No! This is not that kind of gathering!"

Kawaki turned to Kondo again and said, "What are you doing, hey? All your Hinowamarus are perverts! You should exchange girlfriends with me!"

"Who's the pervert? I'll kill you! You damn natural perm!" Hasegawa clenched his fists and roared angrily.

"Shut up!" Kawaki complained with bulging veins in his eyes. "You're in the wrong place too! No, you've got the game wrong! This isn't a harem game competition!"

"No, I only want Otae~" At this moment, Kondo's Hinowamaru pouted cutely and snuggled in Kondo's arms.

"That's right~" Kondo's face was full of joy again, then he looked at Kawaki seriously and said, "Since we've come this far, let's just go all out and aim for victory with our Hinowamarus. Miss Shajou is devoted to me; she will never change even if she dies."

"Yeah, let's do that," said Kondo with a remarkably awake face. Then, he looked at Kawaki seriously and said, "After all, we've come this far. Let's make up our minds and aim for victory with our Hinowamarus. Miss Shajou is devoted to me and will never change even if she dies."

"Ah, I found it, I found it. Let me see."

Suddenly, Totoki's voice came from the side. Upon hearing this, Kawaki and the others turned their heads to see Totoki standing not far behind them in casual clothes.

"Totoki! What are you doing here?" Kondo asked in confusion.

"Huh?" Totoki looked at Kondo and then at Hasegawa and Kawaki beside him. "Kondo-san and the two bosses are here too."

"Could you be here to participate in the competition too?" Kondo asked.

"Huh? Is Kondo-san here too?"

"Of course, didn't you see it?" Kondo replied matter-of-factly, then looked at his side, "With Shajou-chan here..."

Before he could finish, Kondo suddenly became expressionless, and so did Kawaki.

At this moment, the Hinowamaru, originally belonging to Kondo, was kneeling before Totoki, bowing her head and softly saying, "Welcome back, master."

"How does it feel?" Totoki glanced down at Shajou, his contemptuous gaze seeming to see her as nothing more than an object, "Serving a man you don't like..."

"It makes me very uncomfortable," Shajou, who had already been equipped with a collar around her neck at some point, crawled on the ground like an animal, her face starting to turn a terrible shade of red, "But when I think that this is also a proof of loyalty to my master, inexplicable joy wells up from the depths of my lower abdomen... Ha... Ha... Ha..."

"Hmph! You pig!"

"Please don't let me go, master..."

Seeing Shajou being led by Totoki and crawling before him, Kawaki and Kondo remained silent from start to finish.

As for Hasegawa, he looked disdainful, still busy with his affairs—looking around for Tsukuyo's figure...
