【My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute: Sorry, sorry... I accidentally said so many strange things. I wasn't particularly greedy and didn't want to take up all of your time... I just suddenly felt like acting cute with you.】

【My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute: I'm totally smitten by how considerate my senior was on our date!】

In a high-end apartment in Seijo, Setagaya Ward, Kasumi Yoshizawa, having typed this line of text, lay on the sofa, clutching her phone and grinning foolishly.

Yoshizawa Sumire gently lifted Yoshizawa Kasumi's cheek, allowing her to lean against her thigh.

"My sister is secretly chatting with her senior again!"

Yoshizawa Sumire poked Yoshizawa Kasumi's cheek with her finger, looking sullen.

Fang Zexia grasped her hand, "It's clearly because Sumire is too shy, how can you blame me!"

Last weekend afternoon, Kasumi Yoshizawa and Sumire Yoshizawa met up with Akira Kurusu in Asakusa.

Although they couldn't spend the night together due to their parents' concerns, they still managed to transform their friendship into a romance that had previously been impossible, thanks to the help of those memories from outside of time.

Of course, this mainly refers to Sumire Yoshizawa.

Before the world restarted, this child had witnessed Yoshizawa Kasumi and Kurusu Akira gradually develop into lovers, while she herself always kept those fluttering feelings hidden in her heart.

Perhaps it was due to her relatively introverted personality, perhaps it was because she didn't want to bother her older sister, or perhaps it was because she couldn't overcome that subtle barrier in her heart...

Even if they could do it all over again, Sumire Yoshizawa would need Kasumi Yoshizawa's patient guidance step by step before she would dare to hold hands with Akira Kurusu, or even accept her date invitation.

Yoshizawa Sumire was probably aware of her own awkwardness.

So she poked her sister's nose, even more sullenly, "How come even if we do it all over again, that guy is still the same womanizer?"

“Even if he weren’t a womanizer, given Sumire’s personality, he probably wouldn’t have a chance at all, right?” Yoshizawa Kasumi bluntly criticized her most doted-on younger sister.

Yoshizawa Sumire turned her face away with a grumble, her rose-red eyes reflecting the sun high in the sky outside the window.

"Time flies! The second semester is almost here."

The last time time was restarted happened at the end of the second semester.

Kasumi Yoshizawa seemed to realize Sumire Yoshizawa's worries. She held her younger sister's hand tightly and whispered, "It's okay... This time, everyone will definitely get through this smoothly."

Yoshizawa Sumire leaned back in the sofa cushions, remaining silent for a long time before suddenly asking without warning, "Did you do those things with your senior, sister?"

She was referring, of course, to the embarrassing content discussed in physiology class.

Fang Zexia was stunned for a moment, then shyly avoided her younger sister's gaze.

After a long while, she whispered, "Twice."

"Lovers have to do that... right?"

"Um......"

"Can you help me too, sister?" Yoshizawa Sumire gripped Yoshizawa Kasumi's hand tightly in return. She felt her heart pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of her chest.

"Huh?!" Kasumi Yoshizawa's eyes widened in surprise.

Her eyes darted away. "Violet, that's not right..."

"Sister, I...I dare not." Sumire Yoshizawa seemed to be on the verge of tears.

Kaori Yoshizawa recalled her younger sister's personality, and also the lonely figure of Sumire Yoshizawa sitting alone in the classroom at dusk as the second semester was drawing to a close.

Even though she felt ashamed and embarrassed, Kasumi Yoshizawa still promised her, "No matter what, I'll always be with you, Sumire..."

......

[The master of the "chain scheme": Now that things have come to this, it's no longer possible to hide the fact that I deliberately didn't check my phone.]

[DB Library Woyan: Hurry up and get to the venue!]

[Master of "Chain Strategy": Couldn't the book signing be postponed until the end of summer vacation?]

[DB Bunko: Because it needs to be adapted for manga and anime, it can only be held in June.]

[Master of "Chain Schemes": Has the matter of helping to arrange a meeting with Araki-sensei been settled?]

[DB Bunko Woyan: When "No Game No Life" is adapted into a manga, you can also find it in JUMP.]

The time I managed to steal a moment from my busy schedule is over.

Lai Xixiao put down his phone, sighed, and buried his face in his girlfriend's arms.

Rather than mechanically signing each copy of "No Game No Life" on its title page with a business-like smile, he preferred to roam around the Impression Space.

"Hmm!" A very soft voice suddenly came from beside him; it came from Ebizuka Tomo.

The girl's displeasure and frustration were completely evident on her face.

An and Subaru forced themselves to ignore the fiery glare from Ebizuka Tomo across the sofa, and helped Kurusu Akira up. "After all, the holidays are coming up soon, and the agency doesn't want all the work that should be on your desk piling up for two months..."

The phantom thief had no choice but to brace himself.

"Subaru, come with me."

"No way, it's so hot outside." An and Subaru lowered their heads and kissed Lai Qixiao's forehead. "Don't say those weird things to coax me out, because I really don't like the feeling of sweating."

240. The Pathetic Phantom Thief

heat.

It was so hot that sweat kept seeping from my skin, trickling down along the contours of my muscles.

Even if you try to imagine yourself as a passing Kamen Rider or a flying general heading to the Battle of Gunju, you can't help but miss the comfort of air conditioning at this moment.

Just like a monarch who has personally led an army to war, sitting on the back of his warhorse on the battlefield, his long robes acting as shackles to imprison his body, awakening memories eroded by the beauties of his harem.

On the motorcycle's scorching hot seat, the phantom thief's backside found it difficult to fit against his beloved ride for the first time.

As Akira gazed into the distance, the torrential sunlight poured down from the sky, rolling onto the surfaces of the tall buildings.

The harshness of midsummer was ruthlessly revealed to the mental thief who was preparing for the day.

Seventeen-year-old Akira Kurusu rediscovered the experience of being a corporate slave.

He could have endured the hardships of being a corporate slave if he had never experienced the freedom and leisure.

The best way to ruin a person is probably to arrange for two obedient, considerate, and gentle girls who perfectly match his preferences to live with him...

Since living with Toyokawa Shoko and Wakaba Mutsu, Kurusu Akira's once regular and independent life immediately deteriorated into an abyss from which there was no bottom.

The girls would always cling to Lai Qixiao in an overly clingy way, while taking meticulous care of every little thing he encountered in his daily life.

Whether it's falling asleep, taking a shower, lying on the sofa watching TV, or turning on the computer to play a couple of online games... Lai Qixiao always enjoys being surrounded by women on both sides.

The noble lady even went to great lengths to learn cooking just for him.

Take the weekend before yesterday as an example.

At 5:50 a.m. sharp, Toyokawa Shoko got up on time, washed up and dressed, and went out to buy groceries.

At 6:30, Ruoye Mu woke up Lai Qixiao with a good morning kiss.

The two took a bath together, and Wakaba Mutsu helped them change into their school uniforms. Then, they faced the breakfast that Toyokawa Shoko had prepared in the living room.

Akira Kurusu would always be forbidden from using utensils by the girls, and then they would feed her in various ways until breakfast was over.

At 7:30, I held Ruoye Mutsu on the sofa and watched the morning news.

If the news of the day is too boring, Wakaba Mutsu will ride on Kurusu Akira's lap and try to make it "interesting".

Most of the time, Shoko Toyokawa would join the "battle" after washing the dishes.

Then the three of them rested until evening in a way that was so absurd it would seem outrageous even if written into a light novel.

If you fail to pass the above special options, you will see Toyokawa Shoko practicing the piano in the living room, and Wakaba Mutsu changing into a figure-hugging outfit that perfectly accentuates her slender figure, deliberately standing in front of Kurusu Akira to practice various dance poses from her figure-hugging class.

She would even ask Akira Kurishi to help her press different parts of her body to complete her daily lessons.

At noon, Toyokawa Shoko once again personally cooked.

Afterwards, Shoko Toyokawa, who had been busy all day, would kneel in Akira Kurusu's arms, her eyes wet with anticipation for her boyfriend's praise or a tangible reward.

In the afternoons, they would play games together or watch movies together with the curtains drawn.

The girls would embrace him on both sides, handling details such as serving tea and water, and showing concern for his well-being to the utmost perfection, giving Lai Qixiao the greatest sense of satisfaction and comfort.

If Ye Mu wants to take a nap, he will switch to Motis.

Mottis would mischievously take off a few pieces of clothing, leaving some highly suggestive parts, such as socks or a shirt, or simply take off all her clothes to tease Qi Xiao.

Of course, there is always a punishment for playing pranks.

But Mortis always acts with the goal of "being punished."

Even after taking a nap, Wakaba Mutsu still felt extremely tired after waking up.

In the evening, Lai Qixiao would have to pay them their "salary".

Both Toyokawa Shoko and Wakaba Mutsu are not short of money; the "salary" they demand is, of course, the effort and sincere companionship their boyfriends put in.

The only thing to be careful about is that because of her past experiences, Wakaba Mutsumi has an exceptionally strong desire for that kind of thing—her original words were, "Dr. Maruki said that Ren can fill the void in my heart very well, and as long as I stay with Ren, I can slowly heal."

Every minute and every second, Wakaba Mutsu wanted to have as much skin-to-skin contact as possible with Kurusu Akira.

If they're not careful, things could easily escalate to the point where the two of them end up rolling around in any corner of the apartment, wasting hours away.

In short, my fulfilling weekend ended in this way.

If it weren't for the fact that they still needed to go to school, they might have really managed to turn Akira Kurusu into a useless person.

......

The phantom thief inserted the key into the motorcycle and turned it.

He twisted the accelerator and drove the car onto the highway.

It's pretty much foreseeable that this decadent lifestyle will become even more decadent once the summer vacation begins.

Because An and Subaru will also be joining them...

If it weren't for the various medications provided by Dr. Takemi, Akira Kurusu might have been squeezed dry long ago.

Thinking about it, tomorrow is my last day in Tokyo, and coincidentally, I still have to participate in a drug trial at Takemi Internal Medicine Hospital...

The phantom thief suddenly felt somewhat pathetic.

All the "supplements" obtained through painstaking drug trials never had a chance to be used on the enemy; they were squandered by his girlfriends.

Of course, as memories from beyond time resurfaced in the minds of more members of the Phantom Thieves, the "supplements" that were barely enough to cope with the situation quickly became insufficient.

241.I, Kitagawa Yusuke, the master of comics

We've entered the autograph session venue.

Unlike the first time this event was held, this time Akira Kurusu, who is in charge, is now a "super popular author whose works are about to be adapted into anime."

Previously on—While Akira Kurusu was busy with various matters including school, band, and the Phantom Thieves, neither the Toyokawa family nor the agency controlled by the Tsurumaki family were idle, and they were busy managing the social media account "Akira Kurusu Official".

With the successful debut of the band "Red Ginger" and the support of a strong foundation of works from the release of multiple digital albums, this newly debuted freelance artist's account quickly garnered six figures in subscribers on the platform.

The autograph session was currently surrounded by cameras and microphones.

Shueisha, which was in charge of the adaptation project, sent a reporter from its own magazine, DB Bunko sent an employee from its own web operations department, and surprisingly, there were also some television reporters with a more serious style present.

The familiar cool air from the air conditioner dispelled the heat from my body.

Akira Kurusu calmly answered the questions from the reporters around her.

He met his agent at the very edge of the crowd.

Mr. Iwai stopped Akira Kurusu, saying, "There's still an hour before the autograph session starts. At the same time, students from the Madarame Dojo are holding a press conference here."

"Could it be that the venue is rented again?"

"No, it's just that we borrowed their space last time, and this time we've managed to set up such a large venue, so of course we should return the favor."

Mr. Iwai pointed to the Japanese-style room at the other end of the venue, which was surrounded by reporters, and said, "The genius painter Yusuke Kitagawa, who was taught by Master Madarame, has officially announced that he will be entering the manga industry."

"Huh?" Akira Kurusu looked at her manager in surprise.

Mr. Iwai nodded with his arms crossed. "And, he's a huge fan of 'No Game No Life' and has been suggesting to the light novel publisher that he take charge of the manga adaptation... Since you're here, why don't you meet him?"

......

It's no wonder he's been portrayed as a genius in the art world for so many years.
