In Competing Anime, I Only Get Stronger By Taking Wives

"I've asked a few of you to come during break today so you can get to know each other beforehand."

She then crossed her arms, "In any case, the three of you need to assist the student council in completing this mixer event."

Yukino Yukinoshita continued to flip through her book, remaining silent. Only Yui Hama responded, "We'll do our best."

Next, Hiratsuka Shizuka gave detailed instructions regarding the various matters of the mixer.

Especially to Yukino Yukinoshita.

Tsukikawa Shu found it a bit boring, but he had gained some understanding of the Service Club's situation.

In this world, the Service Club only had Yukino Yukinoshita and Yui Hama as members. There was also a quasi-member, the first-year student council president Iroha Isshiki, who often dropped by.

During the boring meeting, Tsukikawa Shu busied himself scrolling through his phone, browsing forums about the Inner World.

The Inner World was now open, and some of the surviving players had even created a dedicated forum in the past few days. Although the number of users wasn't very large, and many were just onlookers, it was still a platform suitable for player interaction.

Scrolling to the very bottom, he found a post that was practically buried.

"Seeking a Virtuous Wife!

"Level 20 player offering boosts, guaranteed to reach Level 15 within three days."

"Includes a large number of experience cards, job cards, skill cards, and Green Gear Weapons!"

"Sign a Destiny Contract now, click to receive!"

Below were details listing various rare items and materials, along with a handsome photo of Tsukikawa Shu.

That's right, this was Tsukikawa Shu's marriage advertisement.

Tsukikawa Shu glanced at the post he had made. It had less than a hundred views, and there were quite a few people cursing in the comments.

After all, from a modern perspective, engaging in this kind of marriage transaction was trampling on the law and human dignity.

But the problem was, none of that existed in the Inner World.

"Sigh, when will these people realize what kind of world they are in?"

Tsukikawa Shu didn't care. Anyway, the next time people entered the Inner World, many would realize its dangers, and then they would dig up this post and pay attention to it.

His own handsome photo would also be validated!

Tsukikawa Shu looked at the meeting scene again.

Yukino Yukinoshita maintained her final bit of politeness, sitting quietly. She wasn't reading her book but was listening to Hiratsuka Shizuka's words—though her expression clearly showed disagreement.

Yui Hama's mind began to wander as she listened. She probably wouldn't be much help.

"In short, that's all I have to say. You two are the face of our school, so don't embarrass me." Hiratsuka Shizuka tapped the table.

Seeing that Hiratsuka Shizuka had finished speaking, Yukino Yukinoshita saw no need to stay any longer. She closed her book and stood up.

"Teacher Hiratsuka Shizuka, next time, please choose a time after school for meetings, not during a short break between classes." Yukino Yukinoshita's tone was still that somewhat cold and distant one.

"Heh, it's because of this kid." Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at Tsukikawa Shu, who had stood up even earlier than Yukino Yukinoshita. "This guy has a date after school."

"Him?"

Yukino Yukinoshita also looked at Tsukikawa Shu, which surprised her somewhat.

But then she thought about it, and it made sense. Although she really disliked the guy, she had to admit that he looked... quite good.

"That's right, me." Tsukikawa Shu shrugged.

He intended to have a harem, and he never planned to hide it. He had gone on dates with Goto Hitori so many times, and many people knew about it.

Leaving the activity room, Tsukikawa Shu walked towards his own classroom.

"Stop right there."

Tsukikawa Shu turned around and saw Hiratsuka Shizuka standing behind him with one hand on her hip.

Then, Hiratsuka Shizuka walked up, crossed her arms, and a slightly gossipy smile appeared on her face.

"I really didn't expect you to find a girlfriend."

Hiratsuka Shizuka casually put an arm around Tsukikawa Shu's shoulder, "Hey, hey, is that girl from another class? I don't think I've seen her much. So you like shy girls like that?"

"If I don't find a girlfriend soon, I might end up like the teacher."

Tsukikawa Shu also sized up his teacher.

She had a good appearance, a nice figure, and was skilled in combat and sports.

"How old are you?" Tsukikawa Shu asked.

"You're not allowed to ask a lady her age." Hiratsuka Shizuka lightly hit his head.

"I don't mind taking one more."

Tsukikawa Shu rubbed his head. Hiratsuka Shizuka's hit was not painful at all.

"Then you'll have to become prime minister first and change that damn monogamy law." Hiratsuka Shizuka said.

Then, she sighed, "If I were seven or eight years younger... Hmm... actually, no, five or six years younger, maybe I would have considered a May-December romance with you."

"If we were dating, we could do embarrassing things on campus freely?" Tsukikawa Shu looked meaningfully at his beautiful teacher.

"Dream on, you already have a girlfriend and you're still trying to hit on the teacher."

She lightly poked Tsukikawa Shu's cheek with her slender finger, leaning closer and smiling, "You're eating from your bowl while looking at a pot, aren't you?"

"Take good care of her, and don't go flirting around."

With that, Hiratsuka Shizuka left, carrying her textbooks and walking in her heels.

This was just everyday teasing. Tsukikawa Shu was her student, and his looks alone were enough to attract Hiratsuka Shizuka. It was just their usual banter.

When class ended, Tsukikawa Shu still went to their usual spot to find Goto Hitori.

As he walked out of the school building, he saw Goto Hitori standing by the school gate with her backpack from afar and was slightly taken aback.

Today, Goto Hitori wasn't wearing her usual sportswear. Instead, she had changed into a JK uniform, and her hair was neatly done.

And the brand-new ribbon on her head was placed in the most conspicuous spot.

As expected of Bocchi-chan, afraid I wouldn't notice, huh? Tsukikawa Shu found it a bit amusing.

He glanced at the system time.

[Time until Inner World opens: 14:00]

There was still plenty of time; a date was definitely possible.

Speaking of which, the only couple who could go on a date within less than a day of the Inner World opening was this young couple.

"Let's go."

Tsukikawa Shu took Goto Hitori's small hand.

The two of them wandered around with their backpacks.

Goto Hitori also saw a countdown to entering the Inner World in front of her eyes.

However, seeing that it was less than a day away, she wasn't worried at all.

Her small hand was held by Tsukikawa Shu, and she inexplicably felt a sense of security.

This might be what falling in love feels like.

It's just… why hasn't he complimented my changes today?

Were my changes so easily ignored?

Goto Hitori walked a step behind him, looking at Tsukikawa Shu's back.

During their walk, she tried to show off to Tsukikawa Shu multiple times.

For example, when they were eating, she deliberately dropped her chopsticks, letting them fall near Tsukikawa Shu, then she'd bend down to pick them up, revealing the white ribbon on her head to Tsukikawa Shu.

For example, while shopping, she deliberately walked ahead of him, showing him the changes she had made to her appearance.

However, Tsukikawa Shu acted as if he hadn't noticed, still not responding.

"Waaah…"

Goto Hitori was a little disappointed.

Unknowingly, the sun gradually set in the west, and time grew late.

Has my transparent aura still not disappeared? Goto Hitori looked down at her school uniform and tugged at the hem of her skirt.

Even the most conspicuous school uniform hadn't been noticed.

That's right.

She was just wearing a perfectly normal school uniform. To outsiders, it was a perfectly normal thing.

The two of them walked to the roadside together. It was getting late, the latest time to go home, and it was time to part ways.

"Hitori."

At this moment, Tsukikawa Shu called out to Goto Hitori, who was about to let go of his hand.

"Yes!"

Goto Hitori was startled and instinctively answered.

Then she stood in place, looking anxiously at Tsukikawa Shu, like a small dog awaiting orders.

Even when facing Tsukikawa Shu, Goto Hitori couldn't change her old habits… or rather, it was precisely because of Tsukikawa Shu, because he was her only lover, that she felt even more nervous and uneasy.

However, Goto Hitori didn't receive any orders or instructions.

All she felt was the soft, moist touch on her lips.

"Waaah!?"

Goto Hitori's body leaned back slightly, stiffening, and she stared blankly at Tsukikawa Shu's face.

This is the first time I've kissed someone…

Wait… don't people close their eyes when they kiss in TV shows? Do I need to close my eyes? Do I?

Goto Hitori didn't understand. She was completely stunned.

She didn't know how to enjoy this sweet moment, only that she had been caught completely off guard, and then she just stared at him with wide-open eyes.

She could feel the gentle breeze blowing, her long hair lightly fluttering, and the sound of the train rushing past on the roadside.

After a moment, Tsukikawa Shu pulled away from Goto Hitori's lips.

Goto Hitori remained stunned, her face flushed red.

"You, you, you, you... what are you doing...?"

Goto Hitori was so ashamed she wanted to turn into a hammerhead shark and escape immediately.

"You're very cute today," Tsukikawa Shu said with a smile. "Different from usual."

"You, you... you knew?!" Goto Hitori's face turned even redder.

"Mhm, I could tell the first time I saw you," Tsukikawa Shu replied. "After all, you always show me your latest changes."

"And, the way you showed off multiple times was also cute," Tsukikawa Shu added with a smile.

"Ahhhhhh..." Goto Hitori's head felt like it was about to smoke from embarrassment.

He already knew, yet she had acted so clever, repeatedly trying to get his attention...

Thinking back now, it was utterly mortifying!

She had tried to get Tsukikawa Shu's attention more than once!

Little Bocchi's dark history +1+1+1...

After escorting the blushing Little Bocchi home and watching her hastily shut the door, Tsukikawa Shu also smiled, concluding this cunning little drama.
