章 557: My Wife's Martial Arts Tournament Begins!

"Ah?! Are you asking for leave?" Hinowa looked somewhat troubled. "That's troublesome. Tsuki already took leave in the morning. If you take leave too, we won't be able to arrange for Hyaku's patrol..."

"Weirdo? Hasn't Kawaki always been a weirdo?" Seita sarcastically remarked with a blank expression.

"I'll kill you, you brat!" Kawaki angrily retorted. Then, he suddenly realized something and turned to Hinowa. "Leave? Tsuki took leave?"

"Yeah, she said she's participating in some 'World's Best Martial Arts Tournament' and left early in the morning," Hinowa explained.

"Oh... I see."

"By the way, has Kawaki figured out how to pull Tsuki out of that world?" Hinowa asked again.

"Hehe... I don't understand. I don't understand. I'm completely clueless about that game..." Kawaki said, turning his head and looking at the three figures kneeling beside him. Hyakki Yagyo and Saya were trying to feed him while Onari, holding the cooling body, remained expressionless.

"Not appetizing? My dear?" Miss Bai pouted cutely.

"I already said there's no need to force it~" Miss Saya took over, "Let's just have our 'meal' directly~ my dear~."

"Ah ah ah ah!!!" Kawaki stood up, clutching his head and shouting frantically before rushing to the window and jumping out, sprinting a hundred meters after landing.

"Kawaki!" Seita, who had come to the window, shouted at the smoke billowing up from where Kawaki had landed.

"It seems he might be feeling unwell..." Hinowa murmured, pinching his chin, then smiled and looked at the three figures kneeling beside him, resembling a corpse.

"Don't you agree?"

...

Kawaki swung his arms and strode forcefully down the street.

[What on earth is going on!] Kawaki thought in despair. [Why did they run out of the game?! Those women! They're so annoying! And why are their personalities utterly different from before?! Ah——! I'm going to be driven crazy!! What's wrong with my head?!]

As he thought this, Kawaki suddenly noticed something and turned his head to look expressionlessly at Gin, who had been running alongside him for some time.

At the same time, Gin, who had also noticed something, turned his head, and their eyes met.

Then, at the exact moment, they both stopped and pointed at each other with their index fingers, then spoke simultaneously.

"Could it be... you too..."

Just then, a car screeched to a halt beside them, and Kondo's voice came from inside.

"Hey, Yorozuya, and also Yorozuya..."

Seeing Kondo poking his head out of the back of the luxury car and waving towards them, Gin exclaimed in surprise, "Gorilla!"

"What are you guys doing here?" Kondo asked. "Today is the big event; I'll give you a ride."

"Event? What event?" Kawaki asked in confusion, but without waiting for an answer, he didn't care; he just opened the car door and got in. "Anyway, it's not the time to talk about that now; please, take me to the hospital!"

Gin, who got in the car simultaneously, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You saved us, Gorilla. Just follow Kawaki's instructions and take us to the hospital."

"What's wrong with you two?" Kondo asked, puzzled, looking at the two sitting beside him, all looking anxious.

"It's nothing; I just saw something incredible that shouldn't appear in the real world." Kawaki crossed his hands under his chin, muttering with a dark face, "And we've been followed, but probably because we didn't rest well, so I thought of going to the hospital to get some sedatives or something..."

"Indeed, now that I think about it, that's probably the only possibility. It's incredible, like a nightmare," Gin nodded, closing his eyes as if in earnest.

"Incredible thing?" Kondo asked in confusion.

"Disgusting~ Kuma, I'm so scared~" Suddenly, a familiar female voice came from the side.

Instantly, Kawaki and Gin turned their heads to look, only to see Saya cuddling up against Kondo's chest, shivering with fear...

"It's okay, Saya-chan," Kondo comforted softly.

"Hey, wait a minute..." Gin's face darkened again, his eyes twitching with several black lines. "Hey! Why did your girlfriend also materialize?!"

"Our heads must have gone wrong too, or is it just my head?" Kawaki's whole face twitched, "What's going on?"

"It seems that you two can finally see it," Kondo said with a light smile, closing his eyes.

"See it?" Gin looked shocked, then suddenly realized something. "Could it be..."

"Yeah, I can see it too." Kondo nodded, then looked out of the car window beside Gin, "Forget about Saya-chan; I can see your girlfriend too, Gin."

Upon hearing this, Gin turned to look out the window and instantly screamed.

He saw Onari, with Onari's body on his back, tightly following the side of the car.

"And..." Kondo looked at the window beside Kawaki, saying, "Your girlfriends, I can see them too."

In an instant, Kawaki turned black, then mechanically turned his head to look out the window. He saw Hyakki Yagyo and Saya lying on top of the car, sticking their heads out, their faces pressed tightly against the window, like starving zombies who had been hungry for a long time, drooling and staring at Kawaki with wide eyes.

"Ah ah ah ah!!!" Kawaki clutched his head, his voice hoarse as he screamed.

By the way, Kawaki's other "girlfriend," —— Onari, was still kneeling on the roof, holding Onari's body without saying a word.

"I always thought you two could reach this level." Kondo continued.

"Huh?" Gin uttered in confusion.

"From the perspective of others, we are just a group of gamers who love the game," Kondo glanced at the game console in Gin's hand and then at the three game consoles exposed in Kawaki's arms, "But what we see the world where girlfriends can materialize, is an extra-dimensional space between the game and reality that only men possessed by 'Love's Sleep' can reach —— Infinite Love Space!"

"Isn't that just for people whose brains are fried?" Gin roared, "What Infinite Love Space? It's just a bunch of lunatics who played games too much and saw hallucinations!"

"Your fucking sight!" Kawaki took out the three-game consoles from his arms, opened the window, and, without any hesitation, threw them out with force.

"Hey! What are you doing, Yoshimura!" Kondo was beside himself.

"Oh, it should be fine now." Kawaki closed the car window, patted his chest, and said with lingering fear, "Finally, I don't have to care about this anymore."

"No, it's useless." Kondo pointed to the window.

Looking at Miss Hyaku, Miss Saya, and Miss Hyakui constantly knocking on the window with their game consoles, Kawaki felt terrible.

"Why?!"

"Who told you to select all of them directly? This is retribution!" Gin sneered disdainfully, "But come to think of it, didn't you say you wouldn't play this kind of game?"

"Although I said that... but someone you absolutely wouldn't expect got obsessed with this thing..." Kawaki explained with his head lowered.

"Who? You only have Seita around you, right? That little brat should..."

"No, it's Tsuki." Kawaki interrupted Gin's words, raising his head to answer.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Gin suddenly coughed violently, "Wait, wait, wait! That woman?! Is she obsessed with this game?!"

"So don't underestimate Love's Sleep," Kondo chimed in.

"She's already obsessed to this extent, so I, who Hinowa asked, tried this game a little..." Kawaki covered his eyes, looking utterly disheartened, "I originally thought all three heroines would try it together, saving time and effort, but... I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."

"But no matter what, you two are here, which means that you, Shinpachi-kun, and that lady are now on the same side." Kondo comforted.

"Being on the same side is even worse!" Gin vigorously argued, then looked outside the window with an ugly expression and continued, "Stop kidding; hey, hurry up and take me to the hospital."

"You guys, stop it!" Kawaki burst out with blue veins on his forehead, shouting at Miss Bai, Miss Saya, and Miss Bai, who was still knocking on the window outside, then turned back to Kondo, "Gorilla, please take us to the hospital! It's unbearable anymore!"

"Indeed, we may have deviated from the common sense of the real world, but where are we going next?" Kondo continued talking to himself, "That's right! It's the alternate dimension battlefield where people trapped in delusions gather!"

...

"Here, this delusion is reality!"

Looking at the "My Wife's Martial Arts Tournament" hanging from the ceiling in the room, as well as the many men who were coming and going, immersed, Gin sneered with disgust, "What a disgusting event, everyone is immersed in Love space as if it's a matter of course, the whole venue has been cursed with illusion spell!"

"Those who can't reach the realm are the same as the Shinigami who can't use Bankai in the Soul Society," Kondo said seriously, crossing his hands.

"Is that handsome? He's just a waste in reality!" Gin ranted wildly.

"Who's a waste!" Kawaki, who was still constantly peeling Miss Hyaku and Miss Saya off him, glared, "I'll kill you! Naturally curly waste!"

"You don't need it. You're a waste yourself." Gin disdainfully curled his lips.
