Somewhere in an apartment building, a woman opened her eyes with a scream.

“…Hah… hah…”

Breathing heavily, she opened her eyes and let out a groan, pressing a hand over her mouth. It looked as though she might vomit, but she somehow managed to hold it back.

“Damn it… that dream again…”

What she had seen was a strange dream—and, at the same time, a horrifying memory of something she had actually experienced.

It had all begun when a man approached her in the street.

“Kukuku. You've got a pretty nice body. How about becoming my toy for a while?”

Before she could even feel disgust at his greasy, unpleasant voice, some kind of power possessed by the man violated her body.

At first, she had not remembered what had been done to her or what she herself had done. But the revulsion her body had unconsciously retained gradually caused her awareness to return.

“This power really is the best. You don't remember anything, do you? You looked down on me the moment you saw me, but now you're my toy. I can do whatever I want with your body while you remain unaware. You're even accepting my bodily fluids without knowing it!”

Even after her consciousness became clear, she could not resist.

She wanted to tell him to stop, but she could not speak. All she could do was endure the sickening sensations inflicted upon her, seemingly forever.

Eventually, that period of suffering came to an end. The man was arrested by the police, and she formed a connection with other women who had experienced similar circumstances.

“What was that?”

“I don't know. But nobody believes us. Even when we tell them that man used some kind of strange power, nobody believes us!”

“Exactly! I obviously wasn't in my right mind. Normally, I would never let some loser like him touch me!”

“Men are disgusting… They're all disgusting. They should all die!”

Those were truly voices of resentment.

There was no doubt that the women, including her, had suffered violations of their dignity and humiliating abuse.

They still had not discovered what had caused it, and they remained uncertain about what exactly the man had done.

“Damn it… damn it!”

That was why she continued to hate.

At the same time, she could not help wondering whether somewhere in the world, another woman might be suffering through the same thing she had.

“If I find him, I'll never forgive him… I'll never forgive a man who has the power to make women miserable. I'll make him regret it and send him straight to hell!”

She declared it firmly.

Given what she had been through, perhaps it was understandable that she had come to think this way. But the incident had also planted a troublesome idea in her mind.

“Men are scum. And women who flatter and fawn over those men are no better… even if they aren't in the same situation I was.”

She remembered something that had happened a few days earlier.

At a café, she had seen three girls chatting closely with a male high-school student. At the time, she had felt something like a sense of kinship toward the girls.

She had not understood what that feeling was. But whatever hope she had felt was crushed completely.

“Those girls must be the same. If they were put in the situation I was, they'd inevitably come to hate men and wouldn't be able to act that way anymore… I'm sure of it.”

The fact that she directed her hatred not only at men but also at women who associated with them showed how deeply damaged she had become.

But the person who had made her this way was a criminal. No one could easily blame her for what she had become.

“…Achoo—aaah!”

“Wow. That was an enormous sneeze.”

“Are you coming down with something?”

Mari and Saika, sitting across from me, looked concerned.

But my nose had simply been itchy, so there was no problem. I had none of the symptoms that had preceded my earlier cold.

Maybe someone was talking about me. I had been pretty popular lately, after all.

“…Haa.”

Popular, my a*s.

I sighed, putting all my feelings into it.

While using the hypnosis app to do whatever I wanted with Mari and the others, I had begun to feel almost as if I were popular—not only because I could communicate with them, but also because they were always so favorably disposed toward me.

Still, gathering at Mari's house like this probably did qualify as a fulfilling social life.

“…Yaaawn.”

The moment I relaxed a little, I yawned too.

As I mentioned, I was currently visiting Mari's room. Saika was with us, and we were sitting across from one another at a table covered with study materials.

We were studying for the regular exams before summer vacation.

(I never expected them to invite me. But when beautiful girls invite you over, I'm happy to study—or do anything else.)

I didn't particularly like studying. But spending time with two girls who were especially important to me made it different.

They were both smarter than me, so having them teach me was useful. I could also enjoy their pleasant scents, or pretend to study while admiring them.

What an incredible room this was.

“I wanted to study with you too, Senpai… But our test ranges are different, and we're in different grades.”

Emu had apparently wanted to study with us as well, but the difference in our grades and material had made her hesitate.

“How's your progress?”

“Is there anything you don't understand?”

“…Huh?”

I had been lost in thought, but before I realized it, the two girls had moved to either side of me.

Saika was still wearing her uniform. Mari, however, was dressed casually in an outfit that left both shoulders exposed.

I didn't know the proper name for that kind of clothing, but the amount of exposure suited her gyaru-like style.

“Hey, are you doing alright?”

As she spoke, she pressed herself against me, making her presence impossible to ignore.

It felt as though they were deliberately teasing me.

Even though Mari and I had become close, I knew that trying anything intimate while they were fully conscious would only make them dislike me.

Which meant it was time to call on my partner.

“Activate!”

I picked up the smartphone lying nearby and tapped the hypnosis app.

The two girls immediately became quiet, gazing at me as though waiting for instructions.

With two beautiful girls sitting beside me, there was only one thing to do. I spread my arms and pulled them close.

“…This is the best.”

Focusing entirely on one person could be fun, but teasing multiple people at once was becoming addictive too.

Holding them in both arms, I enjoyed their warmth and closeness. It made me feel like a king.

“An F-cup in my right hand and an H-cup in my left… You two are incredible. So incredible I'm losing my vocabulary.”

I had been saying nothing but “incredible” for a while now.

Under hypnosis, neither girl complained about how strange I sounded, nor did either of them pull away.

“Kai-kun, let's kiss.”

“Kai-kun, kiss me too.”

With both girls whispering in my ears, there was no way I could resist.

I kissed Mari first, then Saika, once again marveling at how soft and gentle the moment felt.

“But… I wonder how long I'll be able to use this power. If it suddenly stopped working someday… I suppose I'd laugh and say that at least I made some good memories.”

It would be a terrible ending if I were the only one who remembered while they forgot everything.

Still, perhaps it would not be the worst outcome.

“But still… I don't want to let this feeling go. I want to keep doing this with Mari, Saika, and Emu forever.”

The instant I said that selfishly, Mari kissed me intensely.

I was startled because I was usually the one who moved closer first. Then Saika began teasing me playfully as well.

(W-Wait!?)

Neither of them said anything. They simply continued lavishing attention on me.

They pressed close, making their intentions unmistakable, and I found myself overwhelmed by their warmth.

Mari eventually pulled away and said:

“I'll give you my lips. But I'm keeping the rest for myself, okay?”

What did she mean?

Before I could figure it out, Mari nodded and leaned toward me again.

“Fine. But switch with me halfway through, okay?”

“I know.”

“…Whoa!?”

Sorry for making such a strange noise. It was just an unexpectedly overwhelming experience.

And so, I continued using the hypnosis app.

I knew it was wrong, but the app held far too many irresistible temptations. I had become dependent on it like an addict.

“I like this scent.”

“Me too. Because it's you, Kai-kun… I want more.”

Listening to the two girls, I thought with a wry smile that there was no way I could study like this.

Come to think of it, I had once worried about the hypnosis app and where this power might lead.

Honestly, I rarely felt that way anymore.

Why?

“Kai-kun.♪”

“…Kai-kun.♪”

It wasn't that there were no moments that could make me anxious.

It was more that, with the two of them so close, I couldn't bring myself to feel anxious.

Finally, I had both girls embrace me while I rested between them, and I reflected on the matter in that comforting moment.
