Chapter 133 It’s Unfair!
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
”I’m Asagiri Himeno from Class 1-A. My specialty dish is hard-boiled eggs!”
Himeno’s sheer intensity seemed to overwhelm Fujisaki, who edged backward instinctively.
”W-Well, I’m Fujisaki Kaede from Class 2-3. My specialty dish is Kinpira Gobo¹.”
”Guh…! A formidable opponent!” Himeno said while biting her lip.
Honestly, you aren’t going to win that particular fight.
”Hey, should we head to the base for now? We haven’t even eaten lunch yet,” Chikako suggested.
”Oh! Chikako is right! Let’s get moving first!”
It was hard for me to speak up, so I decided to jump on Chikako’s suggestion.
”Nuu…”
Himeno’s pressure weakened as she seemingly agreed. However, when Fujisaki touched me to initiate the teleportation, Himeno let out a low growl like a dog, baring her teeth in a threat.
By the time the four of us returned to the base, it was that awkward time just before 5:00 PM.
”I’m Hano Chikako. You can call me Chikako or Chika, either’s fine. Nice to meet ya, Saki-chi!”
”…Aren’t you going to stay on guard?” Fujisaki asked.
”Well, Hiromin said it’s fine, so it’s fine, right?”
”Y-Yeah… nice to meet you, Chikako…”
”That doesn’t mean you have the right to be with Tsuchimiya-senpai, though! That’s a separate issue!”
Himeno still didn’t seem convinced, but it looked like Hiromi had put in some work. Chikako was likely acting as Himeno’s handler. Himeno was attached to Chikako, and having the mild-mannered Chikako around was a huge relief for me as well.
”I’m a bit hungry too, but I’m going to go train until the sun goes down.”
I was terrified that staying here would lead to a discussion where I’d be interrogated about everything.
”I shall accompany you!”
”Ugh, well, since I’m already here, I might as well get some work in too.”
In the end, all four of us ended up training together.
”Fujisaki-san, I shall be your opponent!”
I had intended to do some form practice, but Himeno challenged Fujisaki right from the start.
”Asagiri-san, you’re a Level 6 Thief², right? If you move up from Ranger to Assassin, you’ll be able to handle being a vanguard just like me. Well, for now, just try attacking however you like,” Fujisaki said with an air of composure.
”Start!”
The moment I gave the signal, Fujisaki’s body doubled over. A few heartbeats later, a pillar of sand whipped past where she had been standing.
”Huh?”
Fujisaki, having fallen onto her backside, was staring blankly.
”One point. Winner, Himeno.”
”Eh?! What?! What just happened?!” Fujisaki asked.
”Tch! As I thought, that’s quite a defensive barrier.”
Himeno, you didn’t hold back at all, did you? I broke out in a cold sweat thinking that the Wooden Stick³ might have actually pierced through Fujisaki’s stomach.
”Next, if you please!”
”Eh?! Wait a second!”
Without allowing a moment’s rest, the second round began. Fujisaki barely managed to dodge Himeno’s initial strike using Vanishing Step⁴, but when she turned around, Himeno was already far outside her attack range. Having calmly regained her stance, Himeno charged at Fujisaki again like a flash of lightning. Fujisaki managed to evade, but as she tried to narrow down the target using Vanishing Step, she was sniped during the brief moment after her movement, easily losing another point.
Even after that, Fujisaki desperately tried to close the distance, but she remained completely helpless, losing the third and fourth rounds in rapid succession.
Looking at it again, that speed is terrifying. I can’t believe I managed to parry that before.
And then, in the fifth round, Fujisaki stood in the path of Himeno’s predictable course, taking the attack head-on to force a clash of blades. Finally, she had her at close range. Fujisaki was stronger in terms of power; in a struggle like this, Himeno was at a distinct disadvantage.
”Caught you!” Fujisaki said.
While their weapons were locked, Fujisaki’s roundhouse kick flew toward Himeno’s flank. But Himeno’s figure suddenly vanished from in front of Fujisaki, and the kick sliced through empty air.
The next moment, as a look of confusion crossed Fujisaki’s face, she was blown away by a powerful thrust from her side.
Wait, wait, wait! That movement just now…
”One point. W-Winner, Himeno…”
”T-That just now… was that my Vanishing Step?!” Fujisaki asked.
”This seems like it might be quite useful,” Himeno replied.
Himeno, that girl actually copied Fujisaki’s Vanishing Step!
If you compare Himeno to a Shogi piece, she was like a Lancer—only able to move straight ahead. But now that she’s learned lateral movement, she’s a Rook. She evolved in less than thirty minutes after arriving here.
”No way?! Between you and Hiromi, are you guys really beginners?! Is everyone trying to trick me?!” Fujisaki cried out.
I understand how she feels, but it’s problematic if she uses Himeno as the standard.
”Tsuchimiya-senpai! You are my next opponent!”
Oh boy, here she comes. Dealing with the current Himeno head-on, I can’t see a single path to victory. If I used Blast⁵ for offense, I’d have more options, but I can’t go hitting Himeno—who has a thin defensive barrier—with attack magic. Besides, since it isn’t very effective against Kibakura⁶, there isn’t much point in that kind of practice.
”In that case, instead of combat training, could you attack me from the closest distance I can still react to? I want to be able to react to the fast attacks of Kibakura… or rather, the King Ogre⁷.”
”I understand!”
Fortunately, it seems Himeno has no intention of killing me, as she obediently follows my request.
First, I have Himeno attack from a distance of ten meters. I have her gradually move closer, but at seven meters, it gets quite dangerous. At six meters, I’m truly at my limit.
”The speed isn’t quite at its peak on top of the sand,” Himeno noted.
Previously, I parried from a distance of three meters, but I was in the ‘zone’ back then. I want to be able to enter that state instantly. At six meters, I end up taking Himeno’s hit about once every three times. I’ll practice at this distance for a while.
Fujisaki was standing there, watching us while effortlessly taking a point from Chikako.
”Watching you makes me feel somewhat at ease,” Fujisaki said.
”What was that?!” Chikako replied.
While I was focusing on the special training with Himeno, the sun began to set.
* * *
Having changed into my room clothes, I sat still on the sofa, waiting for dinner to be ready. Only Chikako’s loud voice could be heard coming from the kitchen.
Feeling curious, I took a peek and saw Himeno standing perfectly still like a guardian statue in front of a pot of simmering water, presumably making boiled eggs. Chikako was helping Fujisaki by cutting vegetables. The atmosphere was quite tense. If Chikako hadn’t been there, it might have been a hellish scene that would make me want to run away.
A short while later, food was laid out on the table. Fujisaki and Chikako had made a tomato stew with chicken, and it seemed they had also submerged some pre-made hamburger patties in it. Since Fujisaki likes white rice, it usually accompanies the meal. Unexpectedly, she might get along well with Higurashi. And on the side dish plate sat a smooth boiled egg.
I should probably eat the boiled egg first. I sprinkled a little salt on it, picked it up with my chopsticks, and took a bite.
”Mm, it’s delicious!”
Just the fact that I could enjoy something Himeno made all by herself made me feel deeply moved.
”Yes! It is a perfect boiled egg!”
Himeno looked happy too.
”But you mustn’t waste ingredients. You crushed more than half of them while you were peeling the shells, didn’t you?” Fujisaki pointed out.
”Nyugugu…”
”It’s fine! Tomorrow, let’s use the crushed boiled eggs and make potato salad together,” Chikako said.
”P-Potato salad! Yes, please!”
Potato salad doesn’t involve much fire, so that’s a relief.
The tomato stew was exquisite when combined with the hamburger patties.
”Gunuuu… I-It is delicious…”
”You should learn how to make this while you’re here too. It’s pretty easy, and curry and white stew are almost the same, so you’ll be able to make all of them,” Chikako offered.
”Y-Yes! I look forward to it! I-I will be able to make curry as well?”
”Yeah. Simmering carrots, onions, and potatoes with meat is the same. For both curry and white stew, you just add the roux at the end.”
”I shall do my utmost with every fiber of my being!”
”Saki-chi, you help too.”
”…Well, I suppose it’s fine.”
Chikako, nice follow-up. It’s truly terrifying to think what would have happened if she wasn’t here.
I’m interested in the tomato stew recipe myself. It seems Fujisaki and Hiromi had coordinated beforehand; among the additional ingredients Chikako brought were cans of whole tomatoes and a large amount of burdock root. I had only planned to use the burdock for pork soup, but since Fujisaki’s Kinpira Gobo was so good, our stock was almost depleted.
After dinner, the conversation turned to my training progress and our life here. But when the topic reached Fujisaki, things took a bad turn.
”Whew~, so you were here for over two years? It’s a miracle you survived,” Chikako said.
”I was lucky to find this base early on. I can sleep peacefully, there’s firewood, and as long as there’s a Recovery Spring⁸, I won’t die for the time being.”
”It would’ve been a disaster if Tsucchi hadn’t said he was going to train,” Chikako added.
”It was lucky for me as well. I don’t regret becoming Takeru’s sex slave,” Fujisaki said matter-of-factly.
Don’t use that word! By the time I realized how bad this was, Himeno had already stood up, her chair screeching against the floor.
”Tsuchimiya-senpai… there is something I would like to ask you.”
”O-Oh…”
Though she wore a smile, the corners of Himeno’s mouth were twitching. This is bad! I can feel an incredible amount of angry energy!
Fujisaki wiped the expression from her face, clamped her mouth shut, and averted her gaze. Himeno grabbed my arm and dragged me toward the bedroom.
I felt a threat to my life, but a poor excuse would only add fuel to the fire. A cautious and swift response was required.
”Tsuchimiya-senpai… how many times have you ‘done it’ with that person?”
Himeno asked with dead eyes.
This question… no matter how I answer, it’s bad!
”It has been about sixty days since you came here, right? And you do it every night, don’t you?”
”……”
Himeno leaned into me while gripping my arm tightly. I couldn’t bring myself to say we were doing it, but there was no way a lie about not doing it would pass.
”How many times do you do it during the day? Twice? Three times?”
”O-One… or, maybe twice…?”
If I averaged it out, it would probably be twice. Maybe.
”Do you remember how many times you have done it with me?”
Himeno brought her face close and peered into my eyes. Unable to withstand the pressure, I involuntarily looked away.
”T-Ten times… was it?”
”Eight times,” Himeno asserted in a quiet voice.
”It has been only eight times. And yet, with that person, it has been over a hundred… even by a low estimate, you have done it about a hundred and fifty times. Isn’t that strange? It is strange, isn’t it? It is unfair, isn’t it?”
”W-Wait, Himeno. Let’s calm down for a bit.”
A crazed light was flickering in Himeno’s eyes. This is not good. Oh man, I might actually be dead.
”I am calm, you know? That is why I am going to rectify this unfairness right now.”
Squeeze… press…!
My ears caught a wet, sticky sound. The sound was coming from Himeno’s lower body. Don’t tell me…
”R-Rectify…?”
”Isn’t it obvious?”
Himeno took a step back, grabbed her skirt with both hands, and slowly hiked it up. There, a lewd pair of red panties with a split down the middle appeared.
Within the two lines of ruffles, Himeno’s private parts, now in their predatory form, were writhing ominously. Her inner thighs were already slick and glistening with love juice, and from the center of the petals, a wet sound like chewing leaked out—nudge… slosh…
”I will have you ej***late the same amount inside my vagina. Assuming you ej***late twenty times per session, that would be three thousand shots.”
”Wait, wait, wait! During the day it’s only one shot, and even at night it’s over in two hours!”
I haven’t been squeezed dry twenty times in one night; I’m not some monster like Himeno!
”……Fine, then one thousand shots will suffice.”
Alright! Somehow I’m safe—no I’m not! I’m going to die either way!
* * *
”Tsuchimiya-senpai! I love you! I love you! I love you!”
”Hyaaaah!! Wa-Wait! I-I can’t anymore…!”
Every time Himeno, who was straddling Tsuchimiya on the bed, violently thrust her hips, a dry thump-thump sound echoed. Fujisaki Kaede, who was peeking into the dimly lit room, quietly pulled her pale face back.
”H-Hey, Chikako. Is that really okay? That girl, her pace isn’t dropping at all…”
”Well, it’s a regular thing, so it’s fine, it’s fine,” Chikako replied.
”It’s always like that?!”
”She won’t stop even if Tsucchi faints, so without a Universal Potion⁹, he probably won’t be able to move tomorrow morning. Once Hime-cchi gets that out of her system, she’ll calm down, and Tsucchi is surprisingly resilient afterward. Since we promised not to interfere with training, I’ll make sure to put a stop to it starting tomorrow.”
From Chikako’s calm demeanor, Kaede understood that this was indeed a daily occurrence. While worried for Takeru, she decided to follow Chikako back to the living room.
”She’s the number one in the hierarchy, right? She’s tall, has a great figure, a small face… is she biracial? What is up with her?”
”Ehehe, Hime-cchi is cute, isn’t she?”
”That’s just cheating.”
Kaede sighed as she saw Chikako smiling happily, as if she were the one being praised.
”I can see why one would give up with someone like her around, but aren’t you aiming for the top spot? There are eight of you now, right? Once Takeru feels he’s at his limit, the ones at the bottom will be cast aside.”
”I like Tsucchi, but I like Hime-cchi too, so I don’t think I’d go as far as trying to take it from her. I feel like I should just enjoy it while I can. I’ve made my peace with that kind of thing,” Chikako said.
”It sounds peaceful based on what I heard from Hiromi, but what are the other girls like? They must be competing behind the scenes, right?”
”There isn’t really much competition. Everyone gets along well. Tomo-chi is probably on the same page as me, and Hiromin and Akarin are aiming for the mistress slots. Kano-pi seems happy just looking at Tsucchi for now. Amacchi-senpai might actually go for the top spot, though. That would be interesting in its own way, but I think I’m on Hime-cchi’s side.”
”What about the girl named Higurashi? Hiromi seemed to hold her in high regard.”
”Asu-asu? She’s so smart I have no idea what she’s thinking, but she’s a good girl. It was Asu-asu who convinced Hime-cchi to welcome us in the first place.”
”…There really is no conflict. With eight women surrounding one man, I’d expect things to be much more tense.”
”Because Tsucchi is passive—or rather, too scared to make a move himself—there’s no sense of unfairness. Hiromin and Akarin said that Asu-asu calculates everything to maintain the overall balance. You’d better not go in there looking for a fight. Everyone seems quiet, but basically, they’re all people you really shouldn’t make enemies of.”
”Ugh… I-I know that. Just seeing Hiromi and that girl was enough to kill any desire I had to fight.”
Kaede sighed again and looked at the clock. It was just past 9:00 PM.
”There’s nothing to do here, so I can see why the sex is so frequent.”
”In that case, how about some cards?” Valeria asked.
Valeria was standing behind them, holding a deck of cards before they even realized it.
”Oh, sounds good. Sevens? Old Maid?”
”Let’s play Old Maid!”
Kaede, who had been forced to play Old Maid incessantly lately, let out yet another sigh.

Summary:
Himeno arrives at the base and immediately displays intense jealousy toward Fujisaki. During a training session, Himeno demonstrates her terrifying growth by copying Fujisaki’s Vanishing Step technique. At dinner, the tension remains high as Himeno attempts to cook for Takeru. Later, Himeno confronts Takeru about the ‘unfairness’ of his sexual frequency with Fujisaki compared to her, leading to an exhausting night of sexual ‘rectification.’

Character Insight:
This chapter highlights Himeno’s ‘Yandere’ tendencies and her unique ability to mimic combat techniques instantly, suggesting she is the pinnacle of the group’s power hierarchy. Conversely, Fujisaki begins to realize the sheer gap between herself and the newcomers, leading to a shift from rivalry to a more resigned acceptance. The social structure among the girls is revealed to be surprisingly stable, managed largely by the unseen calculations of Higurashi.
—
Behind the Scene:
The ‘predatory form’ mentioned regarding Himeno’s anatomy is a recurring element in this series, emphasizing the supernatural/fantasy biology of the characters in this world. The humor of the chapter stems from the contrast between high-stakes jealousy and the mundane task of boiling eggs.
