Chapter 121: Even if it becomes a Harem

Translator: Soafp

---

On that day, I finally started dating all of them. The magical girls I had loved since my past life. To be honest, I couldn’t be happier.

I temporarily entered an awakening mode due to what Karen said. When I think about it calmly, I realize I’m in deep trouble, but it’s too late now.

“Hehehe, Darling…”

Sitting on the sofa, Kuroko clings to my right hand and smiles warmly.

Gindou Kuroko is a personality that formed from the flow of magic into Gindou Kohaku’s trauma and the like. She has the physique of a middle school student like Gindou Kohaku, droopy eyes, hair that is a shade of black with a hint of purple, and mesmerizing eyes that are a mix of pink and black. She has a slight loli charm and was a very popular character. In the original story, it took quite a while for her to become a companion.

She can’t help but compare herself to Kohaku, and she can’t help but hate the fact that she can’t even believe it. But she wants to believe and she wants to be her new self. Gindou Kohaku and Gindou Kuroko .

I don’t think they’re the same existence, they are just similar. I know that. And I conveyed that. Normally, as I interact with the four of them, a sense of camaraderie gradually grows, and in the meantime, it feels quite harsh… Well, it’s too late to worry about that now!

Kuroko has some similarities to Kohaku, but she also has her own charm. I told her earlier, but apart from that, she’s also a bit of a spoiled brat, and she’s the only one who’s a middle schooler. Just being a spoiled brat made her cute according to internet comments from my past life.

Just being a middle schooler was also praised on the internet. Part of it might be because the other four are in high school, so the middle schooler attribute stands out. Well, Kuroko will live as a high school student from now on, but her setting is that of a middle schooler in terms of mentality and body…

Isn’t that nice? Many people seemed to think so. Despite coming into the story later, her popularity skyrocketed all of a sudden. She was the only choice on social media for a while.

Furthermore, I don’t know if this is an advantage or not, but no, it’s fine for me. …… Kuroko seems to have the strongest s*x drive out of the five magical girls. …… Of course, there were no weird scenes of her in the original story or anything like that. However, it was very …… hard to be her boyfriend in the fan book?　I remember it saying.

Pampered, middle-schooler, strong s*x drive, and droopy eyes are too many …… attributes to be erotic, I thought, or so I, or any other fan of magical girls nationwide, thought. But it is well put together. I can’t help but find them attractive.

“Darling.”

“What’s wrong?”

“I want to take a bath with you today…..”

Her eyes were watery, but the depths of her eyes were like those of a predator that does not want to let its prey escape. What in the world would happen if we took a bath together ……

I might have refused to go in the bath with her. However, I was the one who had reopened the door and said

“I want to go in too!”

“Then …… we’ll wash each other as we are and …… do things together that we shouldn’t …… do.”

Aah, cute, glossy cuteness, my heart is pitter-pattering. I’m preparing and hoping in my mind that this might turn out to be like an 18-year-old, and all that stuff.

“Ah, I want to go in with you.”

“Let’s go in!”

“I’ll go to ……, too.”

“Mou, let’s all go in!”

What a spur of the moment thing to do, but I decided to go with the randomness. So I give a hug to Kuroko, who looks a little disappointed.

“Upi!”

“I don’t have any disdain for Kuroko-san”

“I know that. ……”

“I’m glad to hear that.”

“Ugh, it’s so embarrassing when you come in here so suddenly……. hey, darling.”

She spoke to me as if she was whispering in my ear so that no one else could hear.

“Kuroko wants to do something more special …….”

“Okay, let’s do it!”

“So loud!”

Oh crap, she was so cute, I just raised my voice. Then I noticed more stares from the people around me. They were all looking at me with jealousy and puffing out their cheeks.

“Mou, let’s all hug together!”

Man, what I’m saying is really embarrassing…

[Moegi PoV]

“Me too, but it seems like Kuroko wants to get along better with everyone, so what should we do?”

Kohaku-chan’s voice echoed in the bedroom. She was pulling Kuroko-chan’s arm, and there was a confusing development where they were both looking at the slightly opened bedroom door with warm eyes.

“How about using more affectionate nicknames?”

Karen-chan uses her incredible adaptability to make suggestions as if nothing would go wrong.

“…What should I do?”

She still seemed uncomfortable around us.

“For starters, how about addressing us as ‘Onee-sama’?”

“…Karen Onee-sama?”

“That’s perfect!”

“Can I request something too?”

“Sure, what is it?”

“Aoi Onee-sama?”

“Uwaa, that’s great! I wanted a little sister… Good job!”

“Can I request something as well?”

“Moegi Onee-sama?”

“Yeah, that’s adorable! The best. The person peering into this room from the outside is also bouncing with excitement.”

The way she tilted her head while saying ‘Onee-sama’ really touched my heart. Actually, there was a time when I wanted a little sister, so this was even more perfect. KAren-chan and Aoi-chan seemed satisfied too.

“With this, will you call me ‘Onii-sama,’ or something like that?”

“No, I’ll stick with ‘Darling.'”

“I see… As expected of you. I just wanted to try being called ‘Onii-sama,’ but well, it can’t be helped.”

While Karen-chan looked disappointed that she wouldn’t be call Izayoi ‘Onii-sama,’ Kohaku appealed to Kuroko to call her ‘Onee-sama’ as well.

“Um, can I ask too?”

“…Kohaku Onee-sama?”

“Oh, this is good! Is, is she my sister…? By the way, should we inform our parents about Kuroko?”

“I’m not sure… I mean, should we tell them that Kuroko is our child?”

When it seemed like things were getting a bit complicated, he, the presence peeking in from the outside, suddenly intervened!

“Second child! Kuroko is part of the Gindou family! I guarantee it!”

“D-Darling, you’re so cool!”

“Y-Yes, Izayoi…kun, you’re amazing!”

Both of them had heart-eyed expressions. They definitely weren’t amateurs. The more I looked at them, the more they seemed like sisters.

“Well then, let’s go report it next weekend.”

“Yes!”

How should we explain this… “We’ve got a new sister”? I wonder how parents feel when they’re suddenly told something like that… Well, it must be a happy thing, right?

After a little more discussion, Kuroko-chan turned to him and smiled.

“Darling, I’m okay now, so I’d like you to rest in your room today. Thank you for watching over me in the cold.”

“No, I’ll keep watching over you.”

“I’m really okay now.”

“Is that so? If you ever need help, don’t hesitate to call me on your smartphone!”

“Yes!”

Her determination not to burden him any longer was palpable. He must have felt that too—the determination to try her best, to believe in herself, from her own perspective.

So, he went back to his room.

“Well… saying this might be weird, but… were all of us deceived by Izayoi?”

Karen suddenly said something outrageous.

“Karen, I think your choice of words could use some improvement…”

“But it’s true. We’ve been deceived into forming a harem, after all.”

“I can’t deny that.”

“From now on, are we going to be like lovers? If so, should we establish some rules?”

“”””…………””””

It should have been a concern not just for me but for everyone. We’ve become lovers, but it’s not just me. Should we all get along, set rules like in “The Quintessential Quintuplets,” or just let it be a free-for-all? Personally, I wanted to set some rules…

“Well, as for me… I’d like to make anything s*xual, uh, prohibited? I think a promiscuous lifestyle isn’t very healthy…”

“Huh? Specifically, what do you mean?”

“Like kissing.”

“Yeah, I guess… You’re not supposed to kiss until the wedding, right?”

Oh, I’ve already kissed… Aoi-chan probably doesn’t have that knowledge, so she should be okay, but the other three are a bit concerning.

“Yeah… it’s bad for the skin, and overdoing it isn’t good. It could become a bad habit, and if Izayoi does that with everyone, it would be a disaster…”

“Right… I agree. I think prohibition is a good idea. A healthy lifestyle is the best.”

“I… I agree with Onee-samas.”

These guys… they don’t intend to follow any rules!! They’re trying to sneak through!! I was the one planning to establish rules, and I thought it would be good to secretly rack up points where no one could see… If they’re going to be like that, then I won’t hold back either.

I’ll definitely sneak through somewhere… Next semester, there’s a sports festival and everything, I’ll do whatever it takes… Oh, I shouldn’t have such violent thoughts…

“Moegi, anything else?”

“Yeah… how about no cheating? I mean, we don’t need to compete for him anymore.”

“………… Alright, I won’t cheat.”

Uuuuu, even Aoi-chan is trying to cheat. She’s got a serious frown on her face… She never lied like this before…

Even though we became his girlfriends, the competitive spirit and subtle rivalry among us didn’t stop. We all had the awareness that someone would definitely try to sneak ahead, and with that in mind, we went to sleep with smiles on our faces that night.

Well, this is our daily life… There’s no helping it.

[Kuroko PoV]

“I have arrived, Izayoi-kun.”

“It’s truly impressive.”

“Truly?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Together with Darling and Kohaku nee-sama, we came to greet Mother and Father. She wants to explain that I am part of the Gindou family, although I wasn’t born into it, furthermore, it seems that Darling came to greet them because he wants us to be his wives.

He really is something else, Darling, that’s for sure. That’s all I can say about his actions. Thanks to him, I’ve been feeling proud lately, and I’ve been getting used to being Gindou Kuroko.

It’s not regression, but rather personal growth. The way he treats me makes others see me in a similar light. If it weren’t for Darling, Kohaku Onee-sama and I might have been seen as the same person for a while.

I can feel myself being more and more drawn to him, and there were moments when I wondered if it was because of Kohaku Onee-sama’s memories. But I can confidently say that it’s not.

That’s why I’m clinging to his arm like this, to make him aware of me even just a little. I’m also clinging to Kohaku Onee-sama’s opposite arm. It took a lot to get here, as there were quite a few jealous glances from others.

I thought about stopping because I didn’t want Darling to feel uncomfortable, but it seems he’s happy about it. His ability to adapt is quite impressive.

Now, after a while, Mother comes out of the large white house.

“It’s been a while, Izayoi-kun, Kohaku-san… um, and who is this person?”

“Mother, we can talk about that inside…”

“I understand. Also, you should be more cautious about such improper behavior in public.”

“”Sorry…””

Kohaku Onee-sama and I were overwhelmed by Mother’s presence and moved away from Darling. We followed her into the house, and as we entered the living room, Father was sitting on the sofa, his gaze fixed on me.

I felt my heart race and instinctively hid behind Darling. He comforted me by stroking my head, and I basked in it like a little kitten.

“Jii.”

They looked at us enviously. Kohaku Onee-sama also got her head petted, and she seemed as happy as a female cat. But when I thought about it carefully, I realized it must be quite a mental ordeal for both of us to be in front of our parents.

Darling’s way of handling us seems to be improving day by day. We all sat on the sofa with Darling in the middle, facing Father and Mother.

“I have something for you, although it’s not very exciting.”

“You didn’t have to go through the trouble.”

“We’ll gladly accept it.”

Darling suddenly hands over a souvenir. Truly remarkable, or rather beyond expectations.

“Now, Kohaku-san… What about her?”

“She’s my sister! In other words, she’s your real daughter!”

“…What?”

“Kohaku, what do you mean?”

This is the first time I’ve seen them like this, with puzzled expressions as if saying, “What are you talking about?”

“Well, we used to be one, but her magical power flowed into that one, and Kuroko was born. She’s now my younger sister.”

“Do you understand?”

“No, not at all.”

As expected, they don’t seem to understand at all. That’s when Darling steps in to explain in a straightforward manner.

“Um, first of all, Kohaku-san is the famous Magical Girl that’s been in the news lately.”

“Is she the one who fires incomprehensible firearms?”

“Yes, that’s her. So, her magical power matches with her and affects her mentally… Ka-ka-kashi-ka-jika.”

“I see, so that’s what’s happening.”

“That’s easy to understand.”

With Darling’s excellent explanation, they quickly grasp the situation.

“Kuroko-san, could you come over here for a moment?”

“Y-Yes.”

I’m nervous, and my arms and legs move at the same time. But as I approach Mother, she gently embraces me and strokes my head.

“You resemble Kohaku-san, but you’re a little different… It’s strange, but you’re my daughter too.”

“Is it okay if I call you Mother?”

“Yes, of course. I’d welcome such a cute daughter.”

“Mother…”

“Can I pet you too?”

“O-Of course. Father?”

“Just say it naturally.”

Father also strokes my head. I end up acting like a child and seeking comfort from both of them. I am me, and Kohaku is Kohaku. We’re both recognized by them, and that makes me incredibly happy. Suddenly, I notice Kohaku Onee-sama and Darling acting lovey-dovey, which irritates me.

“Mother, Kohaku Onee-sama was planning to imprison Darling.”

“Hoh? Kohaku-san, is that true?”

“Y-Yes, but Kuroko was also trying to encourage the confinement.”

“Kuroko-san?”

“I-I-I mean… that was…”

We both ended up sabotaging each other. The saying “blood is thicker than water” comes to mind.

“Blood is thicker than water… I’ll rely on you from now on.”

“Yes! Even so, I love both of them! So please give me your daughters!”

Next to us, Darling suddenly kneels and earnestly begs Father.

“Hmm… If my two daughters are fine with it, then I…”

“Also, please consider this! I already have three other wives!”

“Give me some time to think about it. I also want to hear more about this…”

“Yes! I’ll tell you everything!”

He’s too straightforward, that Darling. After this, Mother scolded him severely. We got a proper spanking, Kohaku Onee-sama and I. Darling received the right to marry us after begging earnestly.

and we all lived happily ever after.
