A few days later, in the early morning.
The three members of the popular group woke up in their room.
Although they had moved to the Suzuki Family, they still maintained their roommate relationship, sharing a room.
"Yui, why are you going out so early?"
Yumiko asked, watching Yui tiptoeing to the door.
"!?"
Yui was startled, turned around with a forced smile and said, "N, nothing. J, just going to the bathroom."
Yumiko silently glanced to the right side of the room, 'Wasn't there a bathroom here?'
The Suzuki Family manor had equipped each room with a bathroom and toilet. There was no need to go out to relieve oneself.
"Yui, you forgot something."
At this moment, Hina also got up, holding something out to Yui.
It was... a condom.
"Eeek!"
Yui's face turned bright red. She patted her pajama pocket and realized she really hadn't brought it.
"Yui, that's not good. Trying to sneak off first."
Hina teased.
Yui's face was now red as a boiling kettle. She hung her head, wishing she could find a crack in the floor to hide in.
"Hoo..."
Yumiko let out a long breath and said, "Alright, Yui first, then Hina, and I'll go last. Okay?"
Facing the incredulous looks from her two friends, Yumiko forced herself to continue, "E, everyone feels the same way, right? Th, then let's go together. B, but let's be clear, not together, but in line."
By saying 'in line', it's like they're treating Makoto like some kind of all-you-can-eat buffet.
On the way, Yui's face was still red. "Um, Yumiko, wh, why me first?"
"Because you're the one among us three who likes him the most."
Yumiko said plainly.
To be honest, Yumiko and Hina's feelings for Makoto were less about like and more about the submission and dependence women often have towards the strong… at least that accounted for the majority of their feelings.
Although they, like Utaha and the others, had moved into the Suzuki Manor with their families, they were actually at the bottom of the hierarchy.
Yes, even among the women brought in by Makoto, there was a food chain.
The servants in the manor could clearly see which women Makoto was close to and which he kept at a distance, and they would naturally treat them accordingly.
For example, if Megumi's parents asked a servant, "Excuse me, where is the bathroom?", they would be respectfully escorted.
But if Yumiko's or Ebina Hina's parents asked the same question, the response would likely be, "Can't you see I'm busy?" or "Can't you find it yourself?"
While this description might be a bit exaggerated, that was the reality.
Moreover, in terms of combat ability, Yumiko wasn't strong, and Hina, who hadn't even officially become a Genin, was even weaker.
And the only thing they had to offer was their bodies.
Yui was different. Having spent so many years together, both could tell that Yui genuinely liked him.
So naturally, she should be first.
With her friends exposing her true feelings, Yui's little face reddened again, and she didn't argue.
Arriving at the door of Makoto's room, the three looked at each other, all unable to help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
A few seconds later, Yumiko, who, although not the strongest among the three, was often the first to step up when something happened, took a step forward and knocked.
"Um, is Nishikawa-sama up?"
"Click~"
The door opened automatically.
Yumiko and Hina exchanged glances, then simultaneously reached out and pushed Yui inside.
"Eeek!"
Yui stumbled as she was pushed into the room. The next second, the door slammed shut again.
"Um, Ma, Makoto-kun, I, I came to..."
Yui scratched her face, looking down, unable to form a complete sentence for a long time.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't know it was you."
At this moment, Makoto interrupted her. Yui was stunned and instinctively looked up to see him.
But Makoto spoke again: "Wait, it's better if you don't look."
However, it was too late. Looking up, Yui saw the mother of the Aizono sisters, Kayoko, kneeling in front of Makoto with her back to her, her head bobbing up and down.
Yui was completely dumbfounded.
If the person kneeling there was Airi or Marina, or even Utaha or Chika whom she had just met yesterday, she wouldn't be surprised.
But it was Kayoko. That truly shocked her.
Makoto scratched his head helplessly. "I thought it was Ayano, so I opened the door. They usually come over in the morning."
Yes, these past few days, Makoto's routine was basically the girls at night and the married women during the day.
After all, the married women were already adults, accustomed to waking up early, while teenage girls were used to sleeping in.
So Makoto basically spent his mornings with the ladies.
But mainly, he had been too relaxed these past few days since returning to reality, not even checking who was outside before opening the door.
And just then, the Ayano Makoto mentioned, Mrs. Yukinoshita, called out from outside the door.
"Yumiko, Hina, what are you doing here?"
Mrs. Yukinoshita looked at the two girls guarding the door and couldn't help but frown.
Previously, Mrs. Yukinoshita didn't have much impression of these two low-profile girls, but having spent thirteen years with them in the Chainsaw Man World, they were now acquaintances.
Yumiko and Hina were also bewildered.
"Ay, Ayano-san, um, we..."
The two didn't know how to answer. After all, they couldn't say, "Our friend is having her sacred first time inside, and we're keeping watch for her."
"If nothing's wrong, you two should leave. I have something very important to discuss with Makoto."
Mrs. Yukinoshita showed a dignified expression, and no one would suspect she was there to discuss a multi-billion-yen project.
Hina tried to resist. "B, but..."
"Hmm?"
"S, sorry, we're leaving."
One look from Mrs. Yukinoshita, and Yumiko grabbed her friend's hand and ran.
Hearing the commotion outside, Yui almost couldn't hold back her tears.
What great sisters she had!
The door opened again. Just as she stepped in without even taking off her shoes, Mrs. Yukinoshita had already untied her kimono sash, revealing an ecstatic expression.
"Makoto, I'm here to..."
Mrs. Yukinoshita looked up and met Yui's gaze, which seemed to question life itself.
This aunt and niece, who had spent thirteen years together in the Chainsaw Man World and had a fairly good relationship, stared wide-eyed at each other.
"Ay, Ayano-san, you, this is..."
Yui's worldview was once again shaken.
It was one thing for Kayoko, the mother of the Aizono sisters, to be here.
But even Ayano-san, the mother of the Yukinoshita sisters... She knew that in her impression, Mrs. Yukinoshita had always been a dignified and strict mother.
Yet here she was...
At this moment, Mrs. Yukinoshita felt the same shame she had faced when questioned by her two daughters years ago. Covering her face, she said, "D, don't say anything, Yui..."
"Mmph!"
Just then, Kayoko let out a surprised sound.
The gurgling noise drew the attention of the two at the door.
Makoto let out a light sigh and waved to the two.
"Come over, Ayano, Yui. I can probably guess why you came today."
Yui blushed as she walked to Makoto's side. When he reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist, her body visibly trembled, stiffening straight.
"Don't be so nervous."
As Makoto comforted her, he looked at Mrs. Yukinoshita. "Ayano, you and Yui seemed to get along well before. How about teaching her what to do?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Yukinoshita felt a sudden, inexplicable sense of pride. In a gentle tone she had never used with her own daughters, she said:
"Come, Yui, look here. Auntie will teach you."
"..."
Yui's face turned red as a boiling kettle again.
She had planned for a one-on-one with Makoto. How did it end up like this?
…
Several days had passed since returning to reality from the Chainsaw Man World.
After much discussion during this time, the Yukinoshita sisters decided to visit the Suzuki Manor again to have a proper talk with their mother.
They hadn't had a good conversation with their mother for over ten years.
Haruno and Yukino were also conflicted, but ultimately couldn't let go of their concern for her.
According to a maid, Mrs. Yukinoshita had just gone to visit Makoto.
The two sisters knew exactly what their mother was going for.
Even though they had known about this for thirteen years, hearing it again still made them pale.
"Let's wait a bit."
Haruno held her sister's hand, comforting her.
Yukino wasn't as agitated as she used to be either. She sat on the sofa with her head down, not saying a word.
But two hours passed.
Their mother still hadn't returned.
The sisters looked at each other in disbelief.
'No, come on, no matter how strong Makoto was, Mother was just an ordinary person without superpowers. How could she last this long?'
"Mom isn't going to get done in by him, is she?"
Yukino swallowed, sweating nervously.
"I'll go check."
Haruno felt they couldn't let this go on. She needed to see the situation.
After all, relatives of players like Alice, Eriri, and Shinichi had met with accidents. She didn't want something like that to happen to her own family, even if her relationship with her mother was practically severed.
Yukino quickly followed. Although she felt her sister, who had spent over a decade in another world, couldn't possibly be as blunt as before, she still needed to be on the safe side.
When the Yukinoshita sisters arrived at the door of Makoto's room, they heard their mother speaking in a gentle tone they had never heard from her before:
"Very good, Yui. Just like that. Hey, don't rush. Take deep breaths. Feeling dizzy is normal..."
"Sob sob... Mom, it hurts..."
Yui's voice followed immediately.
Yukino completely lost it.
'Are you trying to steal my mom!?'
