Yandere? Menhera? Bring It On, If You're Confident That I'll love You For Who You Are - Chapter 36

Chastity Crisis

“Where are they?”

I asked Mio directly, standing before me. Despite their own daughter being unconscious, her parents didn’t question Rio, the girl who stabbed her.

The worst scenario I’d never experienced before was racing through my brain. Anyway, nothing will start unless I talk to them first.

“You don’t mean to tell me, Kurogane-kun, that you’re planning to persuade Asagami-senpai’s parents? For her sake, even though she confined you and caused such injuries?”

Mio looked at me with a serious gaze that differed from earlier. Perhaps, in her own way, she was concerned about me.

“Well, it might come to that depending on the situation. Can’t say much without knowing the details.”

“Really, you never change.”

“Yeah, so tell me. Where were Kanade and Hina taken?”

“To the Asagami Group’s infirmary. While it’s not as extensive as a general hospital, they have enough facilities and a medical team there.”

“Seriously…”

I’d heard about it but to have medical facilities in a house is something else indeed. If a normal doctor found out, they’d surely inform the police.

But that’s not to protect their child.

Rather, the person they’re protecting is the culprit who stabbed their daughter, Rio. There was no room for doubt anymore.

The biggest mystery to me now was the woman before me. Even though she said she’d been directly informed, she knew too many details.

Why does this girl, who is just a fellow student at the same school and not affiliated with the Asagami Group, have such information?

Talking to Kanade’s parents might be the clue to solving this mystery.

“Thanks for your help. For now, I’ll go and see Kanade.”

I turned my back, intending to leave the room.

“…I won’t let you go.”

In that instant, I sensed a tremendous murderous intent.

Reacting reflexively, I caught Mio’s fist which she had thrown at an unbelievable speed.

“Hey, hey, what’s with the sudden…”

“As expected of Kurogane-kun, what splendid reflexes. But, my aim isn’t just that, you know?”

“…Yeah, I guess.”

As usual, her ridiculous strength. My hand, clenched into a fist, was screaming in pain. The pain was many times worse than when we had fought at the Pleasure Restaurant.

And it wasn’t because her monstrous strength had increased.

“Hehe… the real fun is just beginning. I’ll be keeping you here for a while longer, Kurogane-kun.”

“Fun, huh?”

Without replying, Mio raised her remaining free left arm and thrust it forward. I caught it with my left wrist in the same manner.

“Tch…”

Maybe because of the injury I got when I broke through the wall while being held captive, it was unexpectedly painful to stop Mio’s ridiculous strength with this bandaged arm.

That, and the effects of the drug Kanade gave me were still ongoing. I couldn’t tell if I was in any condition to fight properly.

“Let me ask one thing, what is this ‘fun’ you’re talking about? What kind of scheme are you starting this time?”

“Oh my, a scheme? Is that what you think of me?”

Mio pouted at my question. If she had intended to confine me from the start, she would have taken away my freedom of movement. If she didn’t, then there must be some other motive.

Mio continued speaking.

“It’s a pure girl’s request. Hey, Kurogane-kun, won’t you spend a precious night with me?”

“That would be a dream come true for a virgin like me. So, what’s in it for me if I go along with this?”

“Hehe… That unshaken expression of yours is admirable. But do you really think you have a choice in this situation, Kurogane-kun? I’m quite the formidable opponent, you know?”

Mio smiled as if she were enjoying herself, her eyes showing absolute confidence.

In reality, her physical abilities were not so different from mine.

I used to fend her off with my natural insight and observational skills, but with the drug impairing my body, that means nothing now.

“Seriously…”

I quietly closed my eyes.

It was extremely unpleasant, but I had to be honest. That’s the only option left for me.

“You’re right. Either way, with this body, it seems I have no choice but to obey.”

“Cold judgement unclouded by silly pride. I like that about you♪”

At my response, Mio smiled even more. She released her fist from my wrist but didn’t lower her hand.

“Excuse me.”

“…”

Mio suddenly wrapped both hands around the back of my head. I reflexively tried to dodge, but whether it was good timing or bad, I felt dizzy and dropped to my knees. The drug’s effect seemed to still be lingering.

“Don’t resist in vain. And remember what I said before? I can stand beside you. I’m proud to say that I’m the only one who can defeat Kurogane-kun.”

“You’re talking about beating me in this weakened state? That’s hardly a victory to be proud of.”

“Don’t get me wrong…”

As I spoke sarcastically, Mio, unbelievably, pulled my face into her chest.

I ended up with my face buried in her soft hidden chest. As I looked up with my face still held in Mio’s hands, I saw her face blushing to the point of steaming.

There, I saw the lightless eyes that they—Rio, Hina, Kanade—once had.

But something was different.

I felt as if I could sense her pure maidenly affection.

“So, Kurogane-kun, shall we begin?”

“…Are you serious?”

“I will give you my first time. So please… give me your first time. It’s a promise, okay? That you’ll spend a precious night with me.”

The bombshell was dropped too suddenly.

This girl brought me to her home from the beginning with this aim in mind.

There was a girl before me, from her face to her ears red, breathing raggedly.

In an almost clinging distance, her black eyes conveyed her desperation.

And now, the beast girl before me was about to pounce on me with a devil’s whisper.

“Kurogane-kun, finally… finally─we can be one, right?”

I, along with a cold sweat, had no choice but to accept the one-sided love being bestowed upon me by the girl before me.
