The Best Course of Action Is to Stay Away from the Sawagoe Family / Kasumigaoka Utaha's Resentment

Come to think of it, Sawagoe Itaru was an even more notorious founding father of scumbags than Itou Makoto. His presence could be found everywhere in games produced by 0verflow, the developer of the Days series.

Put simply, Itou Makoto was in much the same situation as Duan Yu. Eight or nine out of every ten girls he met were his sisters or nieces.

The difference was that Itou Makoto just went for it, while Duan Yu only dared to do so after finally learning the truth about his origins.

As for Sawagoe Itaru and Prince Duan?

Heh. At least Prince Duan had never laid a hand on his own daughter.

Thinking of that, Miyauchi Hiyage could not help shaking his head.

Among the hundreds of endings across several games, Itou Makoto at least had a few pure romance endings.

But Sawagoe Itaru was already an utterly hopeless piece of social trash. The sooner he was dealt with, the fewer people he would harm.

"If I get the chance, I wouldn't mind going over there to take care of him. After all, my ability to protect myself has risen by several levels now, so I don't need to worry about anyone noticing my movements."

As Miyauchi Hiyage spoke, a mass of yellow gelatinous matter appeared beside him.

"Yellow Temperance. With this around, I can disguise my identity however I want when I'm out and about."

The reward he had drawn today was the Stand Yellow Temperance from the world of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

Its original owner was the Stand User from Part 3 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure who had disguised himself as Kakyoin Noriaki and recklessly sought death right in front of Kujo Jotaro.

It possessed the ability to devour organic matter and assimilate it into itself for growth. It could also cover a human body, creating the effects of disguise and voice alteration.

Miyauchi Hiyage had been waiting for an ability like this. Otherwise, staying home and writing diaries all day without personally witnessing those scenes always felt like something was missing.

Yellow Temperance's abilities completely made up for that problem.

While it could not disguise him as someone much thinner or shorter than himself, nor could it change his scent—

This level of disguise was already no worse than Kaitou Kid's, and it was even far more stable.

After reading the diary comments, Miyauchi Hiyage controlled Yellow Temperance to try disguising himself as different people, testing the limits of its various capabilities.

For now, he could not test the limit of its endurance. In any case, Miyauchi Hiyage felt no depletion at all. He estimated that even without eating, he could maintain a disguise for days.

As for its range, Yellow Temperance could not leave a two-meter radius around him.

But as a gelatinous Stand, it could extend outward a further distance.

In the manga, Yellow Temperance had disguised itself as Hierophant Green and attacked a thief over ten meters away.

Its defensive power was not bad either. Being able to block Star Platinum's fists was enough to give Miyauchi Hiyage the assurance that, in a defensive state, he did not need to worry about bullets.

Its offensive power was a little embarrassing, though. It was said to devour organic matter, but the efficiency was truly rather slow.

It had struggled against Kujo Jotaro for several minutes in the manga, yet it did not seem to have caused him any actual harm.

Still, considering its trait of continuously devouring organic matter to grow, if it kept developing, perhaps it might have a chance to turn things around in the future?

From a certain perspective, there was nothing wrong with treating Yellow Temperance as a comprehensively downgraded version of Rimuru, the Demon Lord.

Keeping Away from Sawagoe Itaru's Family Was the Best Approach

The day after obtaining Yellow Temperance, Miyauchi Hiyage went out and bought quite a few things.

Besides the school supplies he needed for classes starting tomorrow, he also bought plenty of organic matter.

Sugar, starch, alcohol, fatty meat, and so on.

He wanted to see which type of organic matter Yellow Temperance could devour the fastest. Whatever it was, he planned to use it as nourishment to cultivate Yellow Temperance from then on.

However, when he went to deliver a schoolbag, paper, and pens to Miyauchi Kouka, she saw him carrying a huge pile of things and gave him a puzzled look, thinking he was planning to make some dark cuisine in his apartment.

After Miyauchi Hiyage skillfully changed the subject and asked whether Guanghua was getting used to living here, she naturally forgot her doubts and began telling her little brother about what she had seen.

"Little bro, let me tell you something. An super~ pretty blonde girl moved in next door to me yesterday. She isn't a student at our school, but opportunities like this are rare. Want your big sis to set you two up?" Miyauchi Kouka tilted her eyes and nudged her little brother's chest with her elbow.

Miyauchi Hiyage calmly blocked his sister's elbow.

A blonde girl living alone in an apartment?

He could not think of anyone right away.

But it could not possibly be that fallen angel Gabriel, could it?

He had not even confirmed whether ghosts existed in this world yet. Going by the usual power-progression formula of webnovels, an angel on Gabriel's level should not suddenly descend from the heavens in such a manner, right?

Fortunately, Miyauchi Hiyage asked one more question and learned the girl's name.

It turned out to be Shiina Mahiru, who had suffered the misfortune of being animated by P9 and who, according to his previous investigation, appeared to be cousins with Shiina Mashiro, who was still in Britain and had not returned yet.

Then there was no problem. Although she was also called an "angel" in the anime, she was ultimately just an ordinary person from a normal school anime.

The only question was whether she had a diary.

But even if she did, there was nothing to worry about.

Miyauchi Kouka knew nothing, so there was no chance of her letting anything slip.

Practicing Ripple Chi Kung would not cause any obvious changes. Unless he maintained Ripple Breathing, nobody could tell that he knew Ripple Chi Kung.

Besides, if he got scared just from encountering one Shiina Mahiru now, how would he become a war correspondent at other entertaining scenes in the future?

Therefore, Miyauchi Hiyage's expression did not change in the slightest.

Still, considering his sister's personality, he really was a little worried that whenever she saw a pretty girl at school in the future, she would think about making her his younger sister-in-law.

So he needed to make things clear to Miyauchi Kouka in advance.

"You don't need to worry about my affairs. I've already planned everything out. You should worry about yourself instead. Toyosaki's school culture may be relaxed, but if you fail too many classes, you could still get expelled."

Miyauchi Kouka waved her hand in disgust. "Why are you saying such depressing things before school has even started? I don't want to start worrying about grades the moment I enter high school."

Miyauchi Hiyage earnestly lectured her for a few more sentences. He knew his sister's personality all too well, and every word struck exactly where she least wanted to hear it.

In the end, his sister kicked him out of her room.

She probably would not be thinking about finding him a younger sister-in-law anytime soon.

Thus, Miyauchi Hiyage happily took his pile of purchases home.

After returning home and conducting some tests, he finally concluded that liquid alcohol was the easiest for Yellow Temperance to digest.

"Looks like I won't need to worry about social drinking anymore. The moment I take a sip, before it even reaches my throat, it'll already have turned into water," Miyauchi Hiyage joked to himself.

After feeding it several bottles of high-purity alcohol, Miyauchi Hiyage looked at Yellow Temperance, which had become slightly rounder and shinier. Satisfied, he gave it a fond rub before beginning today's diary entry.

Seeing Miss Katsura Kotonoha's comment reminded me of the night in my previous life when I finished watching School Days.

I was still young then and thought it was just a very ordinary school anime.

Until I watched the final episode, which delivered an enormous shock to my young heart.

In short, please stay away from Itou Makoto, stay away from Sawanaga Taisuke, stay away from Saionji Sekai, stay away from Sawagoe Itaru, and it would be best if you also kept your distance from everyone around them.

Honestly, at Sakakino Academy, it is truly difficult to find a friend you can open your heart to. You do not need to force yourself to fit in with the class either.

Among the heroines reading the Diary, there should be quite a few in the same situation as you, unable to find friends because they are too outstanding. I think it would be quite nice if you all got together.

Let me briefly introduce the four names mentioned above first. You will understand the reason once you have read this.

In your story, the first three are classmates you meet after entering high school, and they are all descendants of the last person.

Itou Makoto is his son, while Sawanaga Taisuke and Saionji Sekai are his grandson and granddaughter. They themselves probably do not know this.

Of course, Sawagoe Itaru's descendants are not limited to those few. At least as far as I remember, more than fifteen people have slept with him and borne his children, including his own daughter.

From what I have written here, you can probably guess the direction your story will take, right?

After you enter high school, Itou Makoto develops feelings for you because you ride the train together every day.

After Saionji Sekai, who has a crush on Itou Makoto, discovers this, she offers to help him win you over, and she becomes your first friend.

In the end, with her help, Itou Makoto successfully becomes your boyfriend.

By the way, during this period, Saionji Sekai and Itou Makoto kiss under the pretense of practicing.

At the same time, because you have a certain degree of androphobia and cannot satisfy Itou Makoto's desires, as long as Saionji Sekai shows even a little initiative, Itou Makoto begins to waver.

What follows is a constant tug-of-war, leading to many different endings depending on Itou Makoto's choices.

The girls entangled in it are not limited to the two of you. Every attractive woman in your class, and even the men, get dragged into it.

I will briefly talk about the most memorable one, and the ending that spread most widely in my previous life: the Bloody Ending.

In the end, you win Itou Makoto back before Christmas Eve. Saionji Sekai cannot accept it, so on Christmas Eve, she kills Itou Makoto and lies to you that she is pregnant with his child. You fall into despair because of this and do some... extreme things.

Of course, there are supposedly good pure romance endings as well. But based on Itou Makoto's behavior in those other scumbag endings, I really find it hard to believe that this man can completely restrain his desires.

After all, in some endings, he even lays a hand on your younger sister just after she turns ten.

As for Sawanaga Taisuke, although he does not have much screen time, he also has a rather disgusting trait in the story.

No matter who Itou Makoto favors midway through the story, Sawanaga Taisuke will most likely take advantage of the opening and target the other person.

As long as one of Itou Makoto's choices goes wrong, he may use forceful means to violate one of you.

In short, there is nothing wrong with staying away from Sawagoe Itaru's entire family.

If they resort to coercive methods, you can absolutely use legitimate self-defense against them.

After some time, I may go to Kanagawa Prefecture to watch a basketball game. When that happens, I may also come by to see you.

I hope that by then, you will no longer need to worry about Sawagoe Itaru.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's Resentment

Miyauchi Hiyage had already exercised considerable restraint in what he wrote in the diary.

Yet the chaotic relationships within Sawagoe Itaru's family still gave quite a few girls reading the diary a small but profound adult shock.

After all, when had these girls, who had never even dated, ever encountered such things?

Takanashi Rikka felt that her sealed Evil Eye had been contaminated.

Yukino Yukinoshita gripped the diary tightly, suppressing the urge to vomit.

Chitanda Eru looked at the Diary with a complicated expression, worried about what Katsura Kotonoha might suffer in the future.

Shinomiya Kaguya wore a frosty expression as she considered how to subject the several scumbags mentioned in the diary to humanitarian destruction.

Kasumigaoka Utaha, on the other hand, was also greatly shocked, but after the shock passed, as a creator, what she was dwelling on differed somewhat from ordinary people.

"So what exactly were the 'some extreme things' Katsura Kotonoha did after falling into despair? It's already written to this point, so why are you still being so evasive and talking in riddles!?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's fingers rapidly tapped against the tabletop, trying to find that thread of inspiration.

She felt that she could guess what You Know Who had concealed.

After all, You Know Who had provided a condition earlier.

After Saionji Sekai personally killed Itou Makoto, she lied to Katsura Kotonoha that she was carrying his child.

And while Katsura Kotonoha had a weak constitution, she was a girl who had practiced Iai Quickdraw since childhood.

If she encountered something like this, what would she do to Saionji Sekai?

As the speed of her tapping grew faster and faster, the expression on her face became increasingly excited.

Kasumigaoka Utaha herself was prone to immersing herself in her own world while writing, slipping into a mildly obsessive state. At this moment, she had completely placed herself in Katsura Kotonoha's situation from the Diary.

Suddenly, her hand stopped moving, and a strange expression appeared on her face.

"Could it be... that she cut open her stomach to check whether what she said was true?"

The instant she thought of that answer, Kasumigaoka Utaha snapped out of that state. She shuddered, even finding her own thoughts from moments ago a little frightening.

She could not keep thinking about it. If she did, it might even affect her future novels.

She did not want her debut work to end with a Shibari conclusion where the heroine went dark and killed everyone.

Besides, this was only her guess based on You Know Who's words after placing herself in the situation.
