“……”

This is a real mess.

“……”

I've been spacing out for a while now… today was just too intense. Wait… didn't I think the same thing when I was heading home from Runa's house?

“…Well, what am I supposed to do now?”

The situation was so overwhelming that even the way I spoke became strange.

“Not just Runa, but Rira too…”

Today, I had been confessed to by two girls.

Runa and Rira… I hadn't had much connection with either of them, but through the NetoraSensor, I suddenly became close… no, I hadn't intended to, but I did… far too close.

“Well… it's not like this is something to lament. Honestly, it's kind of nice.”

It was a situation to rejoice over, like a harem come true.

I'm a man, I love beautiful women, I especially love women with big br**sts… and even though I had no connection before, it's not like I didn't admire them a little.

“…Truly a luxurious problem.”

I mean…

Even thinking “I'm liked” as “I've been liked” is, in itself, a little rude to them… but still, figuring out what to do from here is probably the important part.

“Can't exactly say it's all your fault either.”

I muttered this while activating the NetoraSensor.

As expected, it didn't react, and my words drifted lonely into the void.

“…Huh?”

At that moment, my phone screen suddenly changed.

A text appeared, like when the NetoraSensor's explanation popped up, saying:

“Through the NetoraSensor, they have been saved. You did nothing wrong—therefore, it is fine to genuinely enjoy the time with them. They are women whom any man would notice… and they will continue to be targeted by someone. If not you protecting them, who will?”

I slowly read the lines that appeared.

The words, which I sometimes saw, weren't mechanical—they felt like they were directly asking me.

“Geez… that makes it sound like they're my women or something.”

It was ridiculous… but I couldn't help feeling a little happy.

“Well… it can only turn out as it will.”

No matter how much I think now, the situation won't suddenly improve.

Time will keep moving, and it's not like I'll lose the chance to meet them in the future.

After a while, I started feeling sleepy.

I'll leave the thinking to tomorrow… for now, I'll just sleep.

“…Man… I'm beat.”

And so, the tumultuous day came to an end.

Little did I know, I would later realize just how shallow my thoughts had been.

I was liked by them… but their feelings were far deeper and heavier than I imagined… and, more than anything, the depth of those feelings was beckoning me… soon I would fully realize this.

The next day, I was spacing out at home.

My phone suddenly blared loudly, and the NetoraSensor jolted me into action.

It was a level of urgency I had never sensed before… so I hurried.

“Phew… phew…”

What the heck…?

Whenever the NetoraSensor reacts, I move to reduce the world's misfortune—but this time felt completely different.

The screen glowed bright red with an emergency… I rushed without hesitation.

My mom was staring at me in shock as I suddenly changed clothes and ran out, but anyone would panic in that situation.

“Alright, through this street… there!”

It was Sunday, and the city was crowded.

In a place like this, it wouldn't be surprising if one or two Netorare incidents happened… but hell no!

Muttering complaints to myself, I arrived at the scene.

“Huh… Reina-san?”

“Masato-kun…?”

It was Reina-san.

Next to her stood a man in a suit… but when he saw me, he froze in shock and quickly left.

Here we go again… but at least it was clear now.

The Netorare sensor had reacted to Reina-san… just like before. She shouldn't have anyone with her this time, but… anyway, I was glad I could rush to her aid.

“Reina-san, I'm glad you're okay.”

“…Fufu.”

“…What's wrong?”

I tilted my head at her sudden smile.

“No, it's just… it's always you, Masato-kun, who saves me.”

“Uh…”

“It's really you… the one who makes me feel safe.”

Being looked at by Reina-san, I felt an indescribable itchiness.

I asked her about the situation in detail—the man from before was just a random flirt… she hadn't felt in danger and could've handled it alone… still, her reaction had been unusual.

“Well, Reina-san, you're incredibly youthful, after all.”

“Even so, I still say no to flirting… right, Masato-kun?”

“!?”

She smoothly approached and my shoulders trembled.

What the… there's something sexy about Reina-san… a vibe vaguely similar to Runa…?

I helped Runa, then Rira… and now I was liked by both.

I hadn't thought much about it, but could it be… Reina-san too? No way, the adult Reina-san wouldn't—

“Do you have some free time?”

“Uh… yes, I'm free.”

“If you want, would you spend time with me? I'm going home now, but Runa isn't here, and I feel lonely… it'll be since yesterday, but what do you say?”

She spoke while linking her arm with mine.

It was sudden, but Reina-san moved smoothly… the atmosphere made me feel like accepting it was for my own good.

I couldn't resist Reina-san's gaze and words, so I nodded.

(…The vibe… it's different from Runa and Rira… what is this?)

She led me home.

During the walk, I didn't speak; I only answered her questions… one thing I could say is that it didn't feel awkward at all, likely thanks to Reina-san's enveloping presence.

“Masato-kun, you're mysterious.”

“Huh?”

“Because I'm feeling this excited over a boy about my daughter's age.”

“……”

“Ufufu♪”

Reina-san… she's extremely beautiful and expressive.

But since we got home, I've been feeling this strange, sweet something… continuously, just because she's been near me.

“Yesterday, I thanked you a lot.”

“Y-yes…”

“But even more, I want to do something more for you.”

“Something…?”

“Something… anything. Whatever you want, I'll do it for you.”

Sorry… may I say just one thing?

This atmosphere is… really something.
