Finally, another trophy appeared. And it was the kind that involved mutual attraction. All that talk about increasing adaptive damage was nonsense—in the end, it just made the other side feel good. It should be like a Beast Tamer—a mutual journey where both sides feel good.
Akira saw the trophy prompt and chose to use it directly without hesitation.
[Beast Tamer] activated.
"Good dog, give me your right hand."
Makima raised her right hand and gave it to Akira.
Triggered the first effect of [Beast Tamer]. With senses amplified twofold, Akira immediately felt his brain furiously secreting dopamine, and his spirit was joyful. He felt full of strength for anything he did. If Izumi Sagiri were next to him, triggering [Bystander], wouldn't he be over the moon?
Akira hadn't experienced this feeling for a long time. But thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem that long ago. It was just that many complete or incomplete things happened in each round, giving Akira a feeling as if a long time had passed. But in reality, his last visit to the Izumi family was just two days ago. The Izumi family's date was synchronized with reality, so it could be calculated directly.
And thinking of the Izumi family, Akira suddenly remembered the previous agreement—saying that he would go to the Izumi family to pick up that "mother and daughter" in two days. However, with Skyscraper X now, this matter seemed to have to be postponed.
Tsk~! Why think about so many messy things? Live in the present, enjoy the now. There's one more round left—I'll decide what to do next later.
Recalling his thoughts, Akira triggered all the abilities he could.
Makima's concentric eyes shimmered with water, and her smile was brilliant. It was her first time feeling that love, this matter—no, it was eroticism—wasn't some mythologized thing. Even the descriptions in those books were insufficient to describe her current comfort.
Is this what eroticism is?
It was her first time experiencing it.
This was Akira's second time leaving an Eroge-transmigrated world not by his own initiative. Instead, he was forcibly pulled out by the Eroge. First, when transmigrating to another world, his phone broke, so he couldn't record time. Second, he simply couldn't stop. It was too terrifying, too real.
From then on, "not attending court in the morning" was not false—it was absolutely a real historical event. Because he was experiencing the feeling of an emperor at this moment.
Wiping his face, Akira exhaled a turbid breath, looking at the familiar game interface, and relaxed.
Makima was a bad woman—a bad woman who was very good at deceiving people. Even when she reached that state of complete obedience later, Akira couldn't guarantee that her capture progress would be very high.
Just then, the Eroge prompt appeared.
[Spirit +10]
[Capture progress for character "Makima" reached 60%. Reward: Clearance points +5. All attributes +17335]
Indeed—even after barking like a dog, Makima's capture progress only reached 60%. However, because she was one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse—the Control Devil—the clearance points and data she provided were quite good.
Adding the 5 points of strength and 8 points of all attributes Hiratsuka Shizuka had given earlier, these two sets of clearance points, plus the unlocked [Beast Tamer] trophy, could be considered a fruitful harvest.
20 / 20. Chapter 3 has been cleared.
However, before the prompt appeared, the entrance to Chapter 3 was replaced by two Otherworld entrances. One entrance featured a photo of Lucoa the Quetzalcoatl from Multi-Anime Dragon Maid World, consuming 3 rounds/day. The other featured a photo of Makima from Chainsaw Man World, consuming 2 rounds/day.
Hiss~!
Akira rubbed his eyes. He confirmed he hadn't seen wrong—entering just once counts as a day? It seemed like a good deal. But Chapter 3 was already cleared, so even if he went to these two worlds, he could get basic rewards from the two targets, but it didn't seem as practical as continuing to explore further. Moreover, the basic rewards from both characters were mental attributes. Currently, his mental attribute was the highest, and he had enough rounds, so it seemed more urgent to boost his other attributes.
Congratulations to the player for completing the strategy for Chapter 3.
Reward obtained: [Cognitive Distortion]
By making eye contact with the target, you can add/modify one of the target's cognitions. It lasts for 10 seconds, has a 10-minute cooldown for the same target, and its effect decreases as the power gap between the player and the target increases, and vice versa. The maximum duration is three hours.
Eroge function unlocked: [Two-Pronged Approach]
Relevant characters from completed chapters are marked with Eroge. Rewards can be obtained after strategizing with relevant characters.
[Strength +10]
[Endurance +10]
[Agility +10]
[Spirit +10]
Chapter 3 was finally cleared. Akira sighed with emotion—four targets, two in otherworlds. This made him feel that the focus of the big Eroge was gradually shifting toward entering otherworlds. An RPG in an otherworld? This seemed to be a path many Eroge games take. It was within expectations for the Eroge APP to have such a shift.
Thinking of this, Akira looked up at the clearance rewards. The attribute gains were average—probably the minimum. But the overall improvement in this chapter was much higher than the previous one. Not to mention the divine skill [Cognitive Distortion], just the [Two-Pronged Approach] unlocked by this Eroge made Chapters 2 and 3 come alive again.
Thinking about it this way, spending three rounds to go to the world of Multi-Anime Dragon Maid World also seemed very worthwhile.
However, more than these, Akira wanted to see what new tricks Chapter 4 had. As an experienced Butter Player, he was already eager to start.
But when he looked at Chapter 4, he found it was completely dark. Clicking it, a prompt immediately popped up:
Due to the player's average basic data not reaching 150, Chapter 4, "Defeat," is temporarily not open to the player.
Chapter 4 even had unlock conditions? Akira was a bit stunned.
He immediately clicked on his data panel.
[Name: Akira]
[Age: 18]
[Occupation: Butter Player]
[Strength: 118.8]
[Agility: 115.3]
[Endurance: 119.2]
[Spirit: 154.8]
[Skills: Martial Arts Mastery (Perfect), Precise Throwing (Perfect), Mastery of Swordsmanship (Perfect), God's Hand, Two-Pronged Approach, Bewitch Heart (Trophy), Existence Weakening, Abdicate the Throne (Trophy), Wall Hugger (Trophy), Art Space (Active), Under Great Pressure, Beast Tamer (Trophy), Cognitive Distortion (Active).]
Only one item met the standard. The average difference for the others was over 30. This wasn't much—calculated, it was a matter of spending two days in an otherworld. If he was lucky, he could strategize with two in one day, or if he encountered someone like Quetzalcoatl, it would be a one-time clear.
But unfortunately, he only had one round left—not even enough to enter Chainsaw Man World. He could only go back to Chapter 2 to choose.
Chapter 2: "Stalking."
In order of difficulty:
Suou Yuki (Black)
Busujima Saeko (Purple)
Kirigaya Suguha (Red)
Kasumigaoka Utaha (Pink)
Four characters, four worlds.
The characters reached by [Two-Pronged Approach] were almost immediately clear to Akira. Suou Yuki would definitely be Eriri, or Eriri's sister Maria, and then Ayano. But Suou Yuki's strategy difficulty was black—she encountered the Deep Sea King and had even consumed one of his rounds, so he needed to consider carefully.
Busujima Saeko had many, but among them was Miyamoto Rei, who made him uncomfortable, so she was a backup.
As for Kirigaya Suguha, Akira first thought of Yuuki Asuna, and of course some other seemingly less important characters.
As for Kasumigaoka Utaha… Eriri, Kato Megumi, Hitori Gotoh, and Hashima Izumi, and if spread out further, Hitori Gotoh's band members.
Looking at it this way, Suou Yuki and Busujima Saeko were instantly eliminated. That left two to choose from.
Forget it—Kasumigaoka Utaha was the lowest difficulty. I'll choose the lowest difficulty.
Thinking this, Akira directly clicked on Kasumigaoka Utaha.
Without surprise, Akira's vision changed, and it was twilight again. He took out his phone and glanced at it—the date had returned to two days ago, after school. Time in the past.
He didn't know who the target of this stalking would be.
Standing at the school gate, Akira waited for the target to appear. He had expected Kato Megumi to walk out. But unluckily, the mark appeared on a girl with silver-white hair, wearing eye-catching white stockings.
No way—[Two-Pronged Approach] isn't divided by their original worlds, but by his current reality? Damn~!
All his analysis was useless in the end. Choosing Kasumigaoka Utaha, and Eriri popped out.
So, Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri were classmates in reality, and they knew each other. Akira imagined it, but there was no visual. But he thought it was quite normal for such things to happen in a comprehensive anime world.
Since I'm already here, let's go.
Akira had just lifted his foot when another mark appeared.
It was Maria—Eriri's soft, gentle, and kind older sister. She jogged to catch up with Eriri, her slime lightly bouncing—a rather spectacular sight. Her figure was comparable to Eriri's, perhaps even better.
"Wait for me, Eriri—let's go back together!"
Eriri slowed her pace, and the two good sisters chatted and laughed, slowly walking away in the crowd.
This was the lowest difficulty? The good sisters who look out for each other—Eriri and Maria. Two together?
Akira was speechless. This was only the second time he had encountered two targets. The previous one was in Chapter 1. In Chapter 2, this difficulty absolutely couldn't be pink.
One at a time is work, two at a time is also work—just get it done.
Akira's figure flickered, and he trailed behind the two. Existence Weakening activated, and even though he stood out among the students, no one noticed Akira's presence.
However, Akira felt this was a bit boring. After all, if he just stalked them home, there would be no fun on the way. Since he had [Cognitive Distortion], he might as well try it out.
"Eriri, Maria."
Hearing a boy call their names, they instantly turned their heads.
"Here."
The moment they made eye contact with Akira, a voice suddenly appeared in their minds:
"You are truly in love with Akira."
After a second of daze, the two girls, with their distinct personalities, both broke into surprised smiles.
"Mr. Akira, how come you're here?"
"I heard you two go to school here, so I came to see how you've both been doing lately."
Akira naturally stood next to the older sister, Maria. Eriri's small mouth immediately pouted imperceptibly. She directly fell back two steps and squeezed to Akira's other side.
"Never mind us—how have you been?"
Eriri smiled and turned her face, as if she knew how cute she looked like this.
"Ah, me…"
Akira tried his best to fabricate a story, just making things up, but he mentioned that the three of them were still studying together in middle school, which invisibly increased their intimacy.
"Excuse me, I apologize for this abrupt visit."
Changing into slippers and walking inside, Akira sat on the sofa.
"It's alright. Anyway, Mom and Dad are working overtime today and will be back very late. We can find another opportunity for a formal visit next time."
Eriri sat upright beside Akira, very close, with one hand resting on his knee.
Maria was boiling water for tea nearby and brought over some snacks. Of course, jam was indispensable—this was the tradition for Russian girls drinking black tea.
"Tonight, Eriri and I were just going to eat something simple, but since Mr. Akira is here, we must cook something good."
"Do you need my help?"
Akira naturally asked politely.
"It would be good if Mr. Akira could help, but someone might have an objection."
Eriri put down the cup by her lips and licked her moist lips. "Mr. Akira is a guest, and it's not often he comes. Of course, we can't let him help."
"Sister, you go get busy. I'll stay here and chat with Mr. Akira."
Maria smiled and nodded. "I think so too. Then I'll go to the kitchen. Dinner will be ready in about forty minutes."
After saying that, Maria left the living room and entered the kitchen.
Maria had always yielded to her younger sister, unwilling to contend, so Akira was not surprised by her choice. However, if the two sisters were to progress together, he couldn't show favoritism. Of course, since he was already here, not taking both clearly didn't fit his style. Even children don't make choices—Akira wanted all of them.
After Maria left, Eriri moved even closer to Akira.
"Idiot, you haven't been here for so long—don't you know to hug me?" (Russian)
Akira listened to the completely incomprehensible pronunciation and never thought he would actually understand it.
Ah? Does Eroge also come with simultaneous translation? Amazing!
Before he could exclaim, Akira pulled Eriri into his arms. The latter was startled at first, but quickly calmed down.
"Mr. Akira, Sister will be out in forty minutes. What do you plan to do?"
This was a direct declaration. Maria mentioning the time was also a deliberate reminder to the two of them—she would definitely not come out before forty minutes.
By the way, are Russian girls all so bold?
Akira had never been to the Bear Country and didn't understand at all. But since she said so, he saw no need to hold back and went straight for the kill from the start.
God's Hand activated.
Two-Pronged Approach activated.
Did Eriri have an E-cup? Akira, who had personally investigated Kitagawa Marin, thought she did. But for now, with the outer packaging still unopened, he reserved judgment.
Eriri's cheeks were flushed. She didn't resist such intimate behavior because Akira was her true love. Even if she gave herself to Akira, she wouldn't regret it. Her eyelashes trembled, and her eyes were deep.
Eriri took the initiative, striking directly at the vital point.
Tsk~! As expected of a Russian girl—her methods were indeed fierce.
However, if they continued to delay like this, the forty minutes might be up before they even got to the main event. So Akira sped up.
Although Eriri was shy, her actions were very decisive, and she untied the restraints herself. Finally being with her beloved made her very happy. The smile on her face was as bright as a blooming firework.
"You are so beautiful. Don't be shy—I want to look at your face."
Akira did not stingy with his praise. Beast Tamer had already been activated.
Eriri, with a red face, wrapped her arms around Akira's neck and stared at him.
Beast Tamer's first effect triggered. Eriri's senses were boosted by 1.5 times.
Abdicate the Throne activated.
Human Cannon activated.
"Eriri, Mr. Akira, let's eat first."
Maria walked out of the kitchen, saw Eriri and Akira in the living room, quickly turned around, covered her eyes, and leaned against the wall.
How could these two be so bold? That was the living room. Weren't they just supposed to do some small gestures at most? How did it…
Her heart was pounding fast, and there was an urge in her mind to look again.
Just one glance.
Maria told herself. Then she quietly peeked her head from behind the wall.
Akira's basic stats had all surpassed a hundred, but the muscles on his body didn't look bulging—instead, they were just right. Anyway, Maria only glanced once and couldn't look away anymore.
And her action immediately activated Bystander, which had been inactive for a long time.
With a triple boost, Akira instantly felt like he had soared to the ninth heaven.
Who cared about eating anymore?
