Shiina Mafuyu panicked.
Even her dependable older sister had "lost."
Did that mean from now on she could only let him have his way?
And—how was her sister?
Thinking of Minatsu, Mafuyu hurriedly messaged Hayashi Maki to ask.
Shiina Mafuyu: "Um, you big bully, how's my sister?"
Hayashi Maki: "How what? I sent you the photos. Didn't you see them, Mafuyu-chan?"
Mafuyu: "Jerk! Did my sister cry?"
Hayashi Maki: "No. Why would she? I only kissed her—I didn't beat her up."
Mafuyu: " … "
After a pause, the young woman sent another message, brimming with resentment:
Mafuyu: "Anyway, I'm not like my sister. I'm the type of delicate girl who'd cry from just one kiss and probably faint…"
Hayashi Maki's mouth twitched at that.
What was this—writing her own "delicate" setting and handing it to the so-called villain?
If that's how she wanted to play it, he wouldn't be polite.
Hayashi Maki: "No big deal. Meet me by the flowerbeds behind campus at noon and be good. I promise I'll be extra gentle so you won't cry."
Mafuyu: "How could I not cry? You bully!"
Even a soft-spoken beauty can fume when faced with a shameless rogue. No matter what she said, this guy insisted on kissing her. The more she emphasized being delicate, the more fired up he seemed. How could anyone be like this?
Her sister was right—men are beasts! He'd devour Mafuyu bite by bite!
Just then, another message arrived.
Hayashi Maki: "So, Mafuyu-chan—do you want yourself to be 'bullied,' or for Minatsu-senpai to be 'bullied' instead?"
Mafuyu: "Uuu… I'm sorry, okay? I apologize. I was a bit arrogant earlier—sorry!"
Hayashi Maki almost laughed, but letting her off entirely wasn't happening.
Hayashi Maki: "Be good, Mafuyu-chan. Hand on heart—was I rough last time? Did kissing me hurt?"
Mafuyu: "It didn't hurt… but it was way too sudden. We'd only just met."
A kiss should be after years of dating, once you really know each other!
Hayashi Maki: "That just means I fell for you at first sight. So I'm possessive and determined to win you over—and I'll take good care of you. Happy now?"
Mafuyu: "Happy my foot! And if that's 'love at first sight' with me, what about my sister? Was that love at first sight too?"
Hayashi Maki: "Can't deny it—Minatsu-senpai is adorable. As expected of your big sister."
Mafuyu: "Two-timer! I'll have Nakamaguro-senpai teach you a lesson!"
Hayashi Maki: "Stop fantasizing about BL leads, or I'll 'punish' you even more."
Mafuyu: "Ugh, why do you care so much? I like BL, okay? You shameless, two-timing perv!"
He'd kissed her and still made a move on her sister. That was N-T-R behavior if she'd ever seen it—textbook cheating scumbag!
Hayashi Maki raised a brow. Looked like he'd pushed her too far—he'd awakened Mafuyu's "blackened yandere" mode. She was even starting to hurl insults.
Hayashi Maki: "Saying that about me? Then there's no changing the 'punishment.' See you at noon, Mafuyu-chan."
With that, he ended the chat and turned his attention back to class.
Mafuyu immediately felt awful. So she still had to meet him—then let him do this and that…
Thinking of the other day made her both nervous and a little expectant. After all… it hadn't hurt. And when he "punished" her, her face flushed and her heart pounded, tingling all over.
A net-addicted girl, steeped in the internet and full of youthful energy—after Hayashi Maki's "hands-on tutoring," she couldn't help growing curious about romance. She was slowly sliding down into the demon's orbit.
Pressing her cheeks to cool them, Mafuyu composed herself. When the bell rang, she slipped to a quiet spot and called her sister.
"Onee-chan, are you okay?"
Minatsu answered with a touch of embarrassment. "I'm fine. Why are you asking?"
She'd gone to stand up for her sister and ended up getting taught a lesson, losing her first kiss. If Mafuyu found out, that "glorious big-sister image" would shatter.
But Mafuyu already knew.
Mafuyu: "Uuu, don't be upset, Onee-chan. I lost my first kiss too. It didn't really hurt, right? For your sake, I'll do my best to keep him happy."
Minatsu: "Huh?"
After a beat, Minatsu let out a mortified wail. "Aaaaah! Mafuyu, you—you knew?"
Mafuyu: "Yes. That jerk even sent me photos. I'm sorry—this is my fault!"
Minatsu: "Don't apologize. It's not your fault. I just let my guard down and lost. But it's fine—leave it to me this time. Let your onee-chan handle him!"
Mafuyu: "Are you planning to trade yourself so I won't be bothered? No way. He said he kissed me because it was love at first sight. If anyone should go, it's me—so he won't pick on you!"
Minatsu: "Love at first sight? Who's he fooling—he's way too practiced!"
Fuming, she ground her teeth.
Mafuyu: "Don't worry, onee-chan. I'll protect you! You've always protected me—now it's my turn to stand in front of you!"
"Mafuyu-chan…" Minatsu was moved—her care hadn't been wasted. But was it necessary to throw herself into the fire?
"Don't listen to him," Minatsu said quickly. "If we can't beat him, we avoid him. And this time I wasn't prepared to gather evidence. Next time, I won't let him off!"
Mafuyu: "Let me handle it. This is an opportunity. I'll be the hero who slays the demon king Hayashi Maki!"
Minatsu: "Don't be reckless! This isn't a video game. You can't handle a guy like that—let me do it!"
Mafuyu: "No, I'm going! I'm not some useless shut-in. I'm charging in now—wait for good news!"
If she could record him harassing her—catch his words on audio—surely he'd have to back down!
However—
Noon.
Despite her resolve to collect evidence and "defeat the demon king," Mafuyu—now clearly an adult—met Hayashi Maki willingly behind the flowerbeds. Under his gentle lead and with mutual consent, she blushed, slipped her white arms around his neck, and kissed him back.
Thoughts of "gathering proof" or "taking him down" melted away, forgotten.
