Dream Wanderer Shimaura Hitomi's First Attempt to Seduce Her Senior

Chapter 26: "Dream Wanderer" Shimaura Hitomi's First Attempt to Seduce Her Senior

[Dream Wanderer: Select dream subjects, consume corresponding catalysts, create a link to participate in a customized beautiful dream!]

Following the introduction was a detailed rulebook. Shimaura Hitomi, filled with curiosity, read it carefully, her pupils widening with disbelief.

"This must be a prank... or just some setting for a superpower game? Yeah, it's a game, that's definitely it."

Shimaura Hitomi made a rational judgment, yet her intuition drew her attention to the carbon pen inside the sealed plastic bag.

According to the "Dream Wanderer" rules, this carbon pen met the requirements for a catalyst, and it could be consumed to customize a beautiful dream for her senior.

Thinking this, Shimaura Hitomi's breathing gradually quickened.

Anyway... it seems like all I need to do is point my phone at the catalyst and press the absorb option. It sounds ridiculous, but what if it's real?

Even if it's fake, there's no loss. As long as I'm careful not to input personal private information, I won't be scammed!

With the mindset of "It's free, so I might as well believe it a little," Shimaura Hitomi pointed the front of her phone at the carbon pen.

[Absorb Catalyst]

The carbon pen, which had been lying perfectly fine in its sealed bag, slowly dimmed and vanished into thin air.

At the same time, a prompt popped up on the phone screen.

[Absorbed Level 1 Catalyst x1, Associated Subject: Kiyoharu Chihaya. Design dream now?]

[Yes]

Following the app's guidance, numerous complex options appeared before Shimaura Hitomi.

However, because the catalyst was low-level and there was only one, the range of dream parameters she could choose from was quite narrow. It didn't matter, though; it was just an experiment anyway.

[Dream settings complete. The next time all participants are simultaneously asleep, it will activate automatically.]

At this point, Shimaura Hitomi began to realize that this Dream Wanderer might actually be something special. Otherwise, how did that pen disappear?

Could it be that heaven took pity on her unrequited love for Kiyoharu and bestowed a blessing upon her?

Her plan for tonight was to use that pen to do something a girl would enjoy.

The appearance of the mysterious app disrupted her plans—or rather, if the dream turned out to be as wonderful as the parameters suggested, Shimaura Hitomi might gain an even more delightful experience.

So, she decisively ate the bento she bought from the convenience store and drifted off to sleep, succumbing to the drowsiness brought on by the post-meal blood sugar spike.

She hoped her senior would go to bed early tonight.

Of course, Kiyoharu had no intention of going to bed early.

The punishment was over, and tonight was definitely for intense gaming!

Chihaya Airi wasn't happy seeing this situation. She preferred the days when she could boss Kiyoharu around freely, but unfortunately, according to the agreement, she had to allow Kiyoharu personal freedom of time and space.

This was also why Kiyoharu chose to cooperate with Airi. Although the Red-Eyed Devil had many terrible flaws, he possessed the good quality of adhering to his promises.

Airi, bored, had nothing to do but watch TV. She decided to chat with Ayano and inquire about the progress of her Ultimate Masterpiece.

[It's going well, I'm refining it step by step. Thanks to your Kiyoharu's help, I'm finding it much easier.]

[Tch, what kind of help could he possibly offer? Ayano, you think too highly of him.]

[Airi, you're too humble. A man as outstanding as Kiyoharu, who knows how many people envy him.]

Hearing such flattery, Airi felt quite pleased. External recognition of Kiyoharu was also a recognition of her own judgment.

However, what she didn't know was that Ayano, with whom she was messaging, was currently sketching Kiyoharu's human anatomy on her digital drawing tablet.

"It's still a bit limited... I need to unlock more action instances. Hmm, shopping is a great scenario. I wonder how cooperative Kiyoharu-kun will be, hehe~"

Late at night.

After his workout, Kiyoharu went to bed precisely on time and fell asleep in a flash.

BOOM—

A dull yet penetrating thunderclap jolted Kiyoharu awake.

"Senpai, you were spacing out."

Kiyoharu found himself in a dimly lit office, with a torrential rainstorm raging outside.

The room had lost power, yet Shimaura Hitomi, beside him, was still grading papers by the light of an emergency lamp.

Everyone else had left work. Shimaura Hitomi had volunteered to stay and work overtime—though "volunteered" wasn't entirely accurate. In reality, she was jointly responsible for grading these papers with two older female teachers, but they had both found excuses to push the work onto Shimaura Hitomi.

Shimaura Hitomi, being a girl who was always bad at refusing, had become the scapegoat.

When Kiyoharu learned of this, he had intended to confront the two older teachers, but they had already left for the day, and it was too late to do anything now. So, he decided to stay with Shimaura Hitomi and help her grade the papers.

"I'm sorry, I was just thinking about something personal for a moment..."

"I'm not blaming you, Senpai. Um, what I mean is, with such scary thunder and lightning, you could still zone out so calmly. That's amazing."

"Uh, that's amazing?"

"Yes! Senpai is super brave. I couldn't do that..."

Before Shimaura Hitomi could finish speaking, another bolt of lightning struck.

Her face turned pale as she anxiously waited for the delayed thunder a few seconds later.

BOOM—

Her body visibly trembled, and the imposing presence before her swayed elastically along with it.

"Senpai, I, my head is spinning a bit. Can I lean on you, Senpai?"

Kiyoharu was taken aback.

Shimaura Hitomi had never made such a forward request before.

So, Kiyoharu mentally called out to the system, but as expected, he received no response.

"So it's a lucid dream," Kiyoharu immediately concluded.

A lucid dream, simply put, is when you realize you're dreaming while still in the dream, but you can continue to follow the dream's plot.

He recalled this scene; it seemed to be from Shimaura Hitomi's first year on the job. He had stayed late with her, and they were trapped at the school by a sudden, torrential thunderstorm.

However, in the actual past event, Shimaura Hitomi hadn't sought Kiyoharu's support. Instead, Kiyoharu had lent her a pair of noise-canceling headphones, which somewhat lessened the fear the thunder caused her.

Since it was a dream, Kiyoharu agreed to Shimaura Hitomi's request, letting the girl lean on his shoulder.

He had no other intentions; he was simply curious about how things would develop next.

Shimaura Hitomi carefully leaned into him. In reality, she wasn't a heavy person at all, but her chest was too ample, and coupled with her poor fashion sense, she sometimes appeared a bit awkward.

Her petite body pressed against Kiyoharu's, and her arms wrapped around his neck.

"Hoo..." Shimaura Hitomi let out a long, suppressed breath, seeming to relax considerably now that she had found support.

So that's how it is. Because Ayano had put Shimaura Hitomi in this position earlier, Kiyoharu was now dreaming about this scene. It was probably what they meant by "daytime thoughts lead to nighttime dreams."

"With Senpai here, I feel so safe. I won't be scared no matter what happens."

"It's good that you feel safe," Kiyoharu replied, reaching out his left hand to put it around her shoulder.

Shimaura Hitomi's shoulders and collarbones were beautiful, but she seemed to lack confidence in herself.

Taking advantage of the dream to do as he pleased, Kiyoharu wanted to try experiencing what it would be like to embrace the body of this woman with her delicate yet bountiful figure.

The moment Kiyoharu proactively reached out, feeling his warm embrace, Shimaura Hitomi's body tensed up again. However, this time the tension wasn't from fear, but from excitement.

Dream Wanderer, this is truly amazing!
