Chapter 89 - The Most Troublesome Existence

"Pweaseeeeeeeeeeee, Ren???" Orihime asked, looking at him with puppy-dog eyes.

"Ha! I picked up a Persona with resistance to charm! No beauty tricks will sway me!"

"Uhm, Ren?" Ann said, pointing at Orihime, who was blushing atomic red and fiddling with her hands.

"Charm resistance?!" she whispered.

"Sorry."

"You'd better be."

[Hime]

It didn't work. 😱

[Panther]

It was a spectacular failure. Ren countered with one of his unintentional cheesy lines.

[Dove]

Business as usual, then. 😅

I'm going to shoot myself if I don't see you right now.

.

With an Evoker, so I can use my Persona to find you.

<33

P.S. Bring your team!

"Who even is this?" Morgana said dumbfoundedly.

"The most troublesome existence I know."

---

"REEEEEEEEEEEEEN!" Rise screeched and smashed into Ren, giving him a big hug.

Patting him on the head, she said, "Good job keeping up your health without us, lil bro!"

The team was in shock.

"RISE KUJIKAWA?!"

"Ren, you son of a bitch, do you really expect me to believe that Yu has a harem now?"

Ren answered with a shrug and pointed to Rise, who was nodding.

"I like him."

"Uh, thanks?"

"Sorry. I'm married?"

"To who?!" the team yelled.

Then Rise stuck out four fingers.

"Yu."

"Yukiko."

"Chie."

"Marie."

She dramatically lowered each finger with a flirty wink.

"Oh, Marie finally admitted it? Good. That was annoying," Ren sighed.

"Don't let her hear that," Rise giggled.

"Are we living in an anime?" Ryuji muttered dumbfoundedly. "Supernatural shit and harems? What the fuck happened to the world?"

Ann, Shiho, and Orihime were struck speechless, looking at her like she was a strange creature.

"I wanna meet everyone!" Rise said cheerfully, like she hadn't just broken the minds of everyone in the room.

"Umu, I see."

"What did you just say?"

"Do you like it? I read it in a book," Rise said while tilting her head and knocking it with her knuckles, giving a cute expression.

"Alright, well, let's ignore that," Ren said. "You can't hear Morgana without hearing him talk in the Metaverse."

"Oh, that's easy enough. Come over here!" Rise said as she walked to the corner of Yu's apartment and uncovered an old box flatscreen.

"Wow, that's old," Ryuji said.

"Excuse me, this was my TV in high school." Rise glared. "Come here, Ryuji."

"Uhh, I'll pass."

"Okay, Rise, what's going on?" Ren said with a sigh before Rise used qigong footwork to get behind him and push.

"Did he just fall INSIDE OF THE TV?!" Ryuji yelled, running up, only to be swiftly kicked in the butt and knocked into the TV as well.

"Don't worry, girls. Remember to punish those smelly boys." She winked before stepping into the TV herself. "Follow me!"

"I'm so lucky she didn't do that to me," Morgana shivered.
