"Kurumi. About five years ago, Basara was actually..."
Yuki wanted to make her younger sister understand, but the girl gave her a sharp look.
Although they were sisters, Kurumi had purple hair tied in a ponytail. Just like her older sister, she was also a beautiful girl with a slim figure under her school uniform. It was not the Kuoh Academy uniform, just a standard school uniform consisting of a white shirt, black blazer and black striped short skirt.
Overall, one would think she was a student from another school. Although she didn't attend any school because just like Yuki, she was also a hero from the Hero Clan.
"I know." Kurumi said with a gust of wind slightly swirling around her.
"You know?" Yuki looked at the girl in confusion.
"I know Basara was also a victim. He also suffered from killing his own friends. But so what?"
"Ane-ue. You should also know Basara wanted to protect the Demon King's daughter, right? As a hero exiled by the clan, his actions this time are undoubtedly a betrayal of the village."
"You should know the village's orders are absolute. I'm just following orders."
Yuki of course did not forget about the village rules, but she knew her younger sister was just like her, back then she also had a good relationship with Basara. So couldn't she help herself, why did she always feel Kurumi was so hostile to Basara?
Yuki didn't know, but Kurumi could also hear those voices all along. So unlike in the original work, she had other reasons that made her hostility towards Basara stronger.
Yuki was still expressionless, but she was alert seeing the fluctuation of the spirit power in Kurumi's body getting stronger. Unlike her who was only a swordsman, her younger sister was talented in spirit magic and was able to use wind, lightning, and water magic. That was what she knew in the past of course, now she was not sure how far Kurumi had progressed.
She was prepared to take out her Sakuya sword at any time. Although reluctant to fight with Kurumi, she also wouldn't stand idly by if the girl really wanted to fight with her.
"Kurumi, are you sure you want to fight with me?"
Kurumi shook her head, the wind blowing around her also stopped. She looked at her older sister in annoyance.
"No, how can I hurt Ane-ue? You know I trained hard all this time just to protect you."
Yuki was moved to hear what her younger sister said, she asked in a slightly softer tone.
"Then?"
Kurumi sighed and said, "Besides me, there are also Takashi and Shiba senpai who are assigned to this mission."
"Even if you want to stop me, can you stop both of them?"
Yuki's expression was a little ugly hearing the names of the two, she wasn't actually worried about Mio, she was more worried about Basara. If the Demon King's daughter was attacked, Basara wouldn't stay silent either, right?
Although Basara's recent actions often disappointed her, she still could not ignore the bad things that would happen to him.
...
In his classroom, Eiji was sleepy listening to the history teacher who was teaching in front of the class. If it wasn't for Yui who was now sitting next to him because of the change of class seats a few days ago. If it was still Lala who was now sitting in the front row, he wanted to close his eyes for a while.
But how could he do that? Even when he said he had studied what the history teacher was teaching them before. A disciplined girl like Yui would reprimand him.
"Eiji, don't sleep in class. The teacher is teaching."
"Yui, don't you see my eyes are wide open right now? Who's sleeping? I'm not sleeping."
[Although I can actually fall asleep while opening my eyes. But there's no way Yui would know that, right?]
"...." Yui looked at Eiji flatly. She didn't know that boy could actually sleep with his eyes open, but she knew now and pinched his thigh due to their close seating distance.
"Why didn't you scream?"
"You want me to scream with this level of pinching? Yui, you can't even tickle me with this much force."
"You! Eiji, don't sleep in class!"
"Sttt! Yui, don't yell in class..."
Yui glared at Eiji, but there was a slight blush on her cheeks because the boy was holding her hands under the desk! A weak girl like herself certainly couldn't escape from Eiji's evil hands, she looked around anxiously.
Fortunately other than Risa who was grinning in her seat, the other students were still staring at the front of the class. Lala and Haruna peeked at them a little, but that was it. There was also Rito, Yui didn't notice the boy, or rather didn't care and let out a sigh of relief.
"Eiji, let go of my hand. This is class, don't do anything immoral." Yui wasn't yelling anymore like before, now she was whispering to him.
Eiji smiled mischievously at the girl. "So it's okay if we do it somewhere other than the classroom?"
"Wh-What? No! You can't do it!"
Yui was tsundere as usual. Obviously she said no, but she made no effort to remove his hand from her. This girl... Well then, just ignore her and stay like this.
"Eiji, Eiji, hey... Let go of me."
"...."
"Hey you're ignoring me? Hmph!"
"...."
Eiji ignored the girl's dishonest whining, and in fact his attention was also caught by something else. When he looked out of the window, he saw a purple-haired girl walking towards the school gate.
The girl's appearance looked familiar. She seemed to have just come out of another classroom building.
[Isn't that Kurumi Nonaka? Yuki's younger sister? Why is she here? Oh... No wonder Yuki didn't show up on the school roof with Basara earlier even though she usually follows his ass like a dog afraid of its owner being seduced by Mio.]
[Has this plot finally started? In the original work. I remember the Hero Clan sending Kurumi and two other heroes to kill Mio. That group will naturally fight with the protagonist Basara.]
[As the protagonist, of course Basara won in the end. Not only did he defeat his enemy, he also managed to win the heart of Kurumi who was previously hostile to him because of the things that happened in the past.]
[Kurumi.... That girl is also as brain-dead as her older sister.]
Kurumi who had just gotten out of the school stopped her steps and turned to look at the school again with a fierce expression.
"Who are you calling brain dead? Me and my sister? Eiji Seiya, you dare!"
Of course, she could also hear Eiji's inner voice.
But put that aside.
[Why did the girl suddenly turn around? And with such a fierce expression on her pretty face? There's no way she can feel my gaze from the window, right? I'm sure she didn't.]
"I know! Window? Which window is it?" Kurumi looked at the tall school buildings in the distance, she stared at the windows hanging there one by one. Don't underestimate the hero's eyesight, her eyesight was no worse than a hawk monitoring its prey.
[Well... I remember unlike her older sister, Yuki who was calm and cool. This girl is rather hot-tempered, she even antagonized Basara before eventually joining his harem with Yuki.]
[Kurumi is also one of the heroine in the original work. Basara is so lucky, he got the full package of two sisters!]
[I'm not jealous of course. After all, I also have Sona and Serafall. It's just like I said. Kurumi is just as brain-dead as her older sister. In this plot, she will fall in love with Basara after being defeated by him. It can't even be called a fight, the girl was defeated easily by the protagonist.]
[And when she was about to fall from the 10th floor of a building, Basara caught her to save her and she instantly lost her hostility. Kurumi blushed and fell in love with Basara at that moment.]
[Not long after that, she would quit the Hero Clan to become Basara's sex toy. Maria also often played with that girl at Basara's house. It was a good scene when I saw it in my previous life.]
[By the way what exactly was that girl looking for in the window of the school building? She kept looking at the window panes one by one. Maybe she was looking for Mio or Basara? Either way, it's none of my business.]
Eiji looked away from the window, the corners of his lips curling up slightly. He continued his game with Yui under the table.
"...."
Kurumi was dumbfounded to hear all that information. She had long known her older sister was the heroine and Basara was the harem protagonist. Mio Naruse who was her target was also one of the heroine and would be a member of Basara's harem.
It was actually because of this that she was hostile to Basara. Even after she knew Basara was also suffering from whatshe did five years ago. Hearing that her older sister would do this and that in the original work with other women, Basara did not even let go of his own aunt.
Kurumi who was protective of her older sister was not happy. She used to have a good impression of Basara and regarded him as her older brother. But now? Knowing herself to be one of the heroine who would become a member of Basara's harem and...
"Become a sex toy? Maria, that succubus will also play with me? Play what?"
She didn't understand what the latter was, but she knew it must be a perverted thing involving herself.
Kurumi did not hate perverted things, but after knowing what would happen to her in the future. How could she not feel anxious and reluctant? She felt uncomfortable doing things that she actually knew would happen to her.
Seeing as she couldn't find a single person who might be Eiji in the windows of the school building. Kurumi turned around again and left the school.
She had to meet Takashi and Shiba immediately to change their plans.
Meanwhile. Certain chat groups are quite noisy.
[Lala √: Another plot?]
[Sona: Lala, I feel like you're trying to get ahead of me to say something. Is it just my feelings?]
[Lala √: Sona, I'm sure it's just your feelings~]
[Rias: Good job Lala!]
[Sona: Since you can't beat me by yourself, you rely on others. Rias, I'm not surprised.]
[Rias: Sona, why don't we fight again in the Rating Game? Except for your mouth, I'm sure I can beat you.]
[Grayfia: Ahem! Please don't waste time on useless talk.]
[Rias: Grayfia, you said that. But what exactly do we have to talk about? Wait! Mio, how about joining my peerage? That way you won't have to fear the people from the Hero Clan targeting you!]
[Mio: Huh?! I appreciate your offer, but joining the peerage means becoming your servant, right? As a heroine, I feel no worse than you. Sorry, I'll decline.]
[Sona: Too bad, Rias got rejected haha.]
[Rias: Sona!]
Sitting in class like the other students, Rias' face was red with embarrassment and anger to the point that Akeno sitting next to her was giggling.
She quickly composed herself of course. It wasn't the first time Sona had upset her after all.
[Rias: Still. Even if you refuse to join my peerage. If you need help, you can tell us, Mio.]
[Sona: This time I'll agree with Rias. Everyone in this group is a heroine. If any of us have problems with the plot or even other problems. Instead of relying on the protagonist in the original work, why not help each other out?]
[Akeno: Ara Ara. Count me in.]
[Lala √: Me too!]
The other girls sent +1, but only Asia said:
[Asia: Hm... I don't mind helping either. But Mio, why don't you ask Eiji-san for help? I'm sure he'll be happy to help you deal with the Hero Clan targeting you.]
[Asia: Eiji-san is very kind, he's also very strong. His house has many bedrooms. I think you should...]
[Rias: What?]
[Asia: It's okay. I'm willing to help anyway.]
"Asia... She's not trying to seduce Mio to join Eiji's harem, right?"
Sona felt that the once innocent girl was becoming more and more cunning these days. Even to the point of deceiving a woman named Jeanne, who was from the Hero Faction to become Eiji's servant.
If the people from the Hero Faction knew this, they would definitely be shocked.
[Mio: All of you... Thank you. But I'll handle this matter by myself first. There's also Maria who's helping me.]
"Mio-sama, why not just accept their help? And that girl named Asia's idea is also very good. We can ask Eiji-san for help!"
Maria persuaded the crimson-haired girl. But Mio shook her head with a wry smile.
"It's better not to involve them Maria. You know my identity attracts the attention of many demons and people from the Hero Clan."
"If I ask for their help, especially Eiji. I will also drag them into my troubles, the people who are targeting me might not let them go either."
Maria sighed.
"Not just a tsundere, Mio-sama is also a masochistic heroine."
"Maria, what did you say? I'm not a tsundere! And I'm not a masochist either!"
"Yes, yes. Mio-sama, I believe in you."
"Really? Wait, where are you going?"
The two of them were actually talking in the quiet corridor. Mio had actually been pretending to go to the toilet ever since hearing Eiji's inner voice mention about Kurumi and the Hero Clan people targeting her.
But instead of going to the toilet, she actually met Maria here.
"Me? I'll check the surrounding area. We don't know when the people of the Hero Clan will attack. So I also need to make preparations, Mio-sama."
"Eh? I see. Should I come with you?"
"No, please go back to your class so Basara-san doesn't get suspicious." Maria smiled mysteriously, but Mio saw nothing wrong.
She nodded at the girl and returned to her class. However, she did not see which direction Maria went.
Even if she did, she did not know what exactly Maria wanted to do.
On the other side after time passed.
On his way home from school, Eiji remembered to check his reward.
"Miss System, is there a reward for today?"
¶{You sound like a child who wants a Christmas present every day. Any Santa in the world would be reluctant to reward you for several years.}
"But you're willing, right? After all, you're Miss System who is generous to her hosts."
She heard the woman sigh inside his head.
¶{You have one that hasn't been checked since changing the plot this morning.}
"Sure enough you're the best. Which plot by the way?"
¶{It's after you get Jeanne.}
"But Jeanne isn't the heroine, right?"
¶{She's not a heroine, but the Hero Faction is affected because of this. The things they will do in the future changed.}
Eiji understood, he did not bother with the details anymore and did his routine of opening rewards as usual.
