NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 103: The Girls’ Last Tour!
After seeing everyone, the two returned to Ren's home again. Eriri had wanted to stay, but was forcibly pulled away by Sayuri, who had sharp eyes and understood the situation. Kanae also gave Ren a gentle smile before returning to his mental space.
Yukino had just finished washing clothes. Having completed her normal maid duties, it was time for her to return. As she reached the door, Yukino looked back at the two, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating. In the end, she said nothing and closed the door as she left.
Only he and Megumi remained. For a moment, they sat in the bedroom. The vast room was unusually quiet. Sitting close together, they could hear each other's breathing.
"Ren-kun, do you know why I stayed today?" Megumi's words were very soft. Immediately after, under Ren's gaze, she slowly lay down on the bed. Her directness and feelings, Ren had already sensed them.
"I know. Give yourself to me." He turned sideways, his arms propped on either side of her. Kato Megumi closed her eyes. Ren slowly leaned down.
…
Tonight, another girl underwent a transformation.
…
Kato Megumi was deeply asleep from exhaustion. The strands of hair on her forehead were still matted with sweat. Ren was somewhat amused and exasperated. During the process, one sentence from her had made him too excited. With a slightly flushed and shy face, Megumi calmly said, "Ren-kun, I'm very safe today." This sentence, paired with that calm face, was simply too devastating for Ren. This also caused Ren to almost lose control of himself.
Although she had gained the ability to conceal her presence, her body was still very frail. Considering the future, Ren also used Primal Energy to strengthen her body.
Kanae was responsible for the cleanup afterward. He didn't communicate with Kanae, though. After Kanae finished, she lay down beside him. Kato Megumi had already occupied the space in his arms.
Ren didn't sleep either, because new people had joined the Chat Group! Joining the Chat Group in the middle of the night, this was truly… speechless. Never mind. He opened the Chat Group. The new member notifications were very conspicuous. There were three notifications in total.
[Ding! Chito has joined the Chat Group!]
[Ding! Seitenshi has joined the Chat Group!]
[Ding! Avenger Girl has joined the Chat Group!]
*****
Many years had passed since the era of human civilization at its peak of glory. Humanity had almost died out. Even living organisms had disappeared, and the world had entered an apocalypse. The intricately constructed city had turned into a labyrinthine ruin, and the unmaintained machinery gradually ceased to function. When did it end? And when did it begin to end?
In a world where even such thoughts no longer existed, two girls continued their aimless journey. In this desolate, empty world, Chito and Yuri, riding their beloved Kettenkrad, wandered through the ruins again tonight. They didn't know where they were going, nor did they know how long they would keep going.
The blonde girl named Yuri sat in the back, gazing up at the starry sky. The starry sky looked so beautiful, yet humanity could never reach it. She seemed to ask Chito, or perhaps she was asking herself, "Hey, Chito-chan, do you think we're still alive?"
The black-haired girl named Chito remained silent. She was diligently driving the small armored vehicle.
"Or… are we actually dead…?"
"Just wandering in a vast, white afterlife."
Chito still didn't respond to her. Yuri lowered her head and tightened her clothes. "Chito-chan, do you know? They say the afterlife is very warm." The biting cold wind pierced through her, and even wrapped in her military coat, Yuri shivered with cold. With her eyelids drooping, "Looking at it this way… it seems we should still be alive…"
"Haha, it looks like we'll just have to get along with despair."
The vehicle suddenly stopped. Yuri huddled her cold, stiff body and looked up at Chito. "Why did you stop?"
"..." Chito blinked. "I think I really met a God."
...
Ren: "Chito, is your name Chito?" He didn't know why. Seeing this name, he instinctively asked. This name… touched him, as if recalling a lonely and solitary story.
Chito: "I am Chito. Are you… a God?"
Ren: "If you wish."
Perhaps it was some kind of intuition. This time, Ren did not deny the title he once disdained. Perhaps it was some kind of intuition. Everyone who noticed Ren's unusual behavior remained silent at this moment.
Chito: "God, can you tell me… how to get along with despair?"
Ren: "..." This sentence was very familiar. His intuition seemed to have come true.
Ren: "God is omnipotent. Chito-chan can try to make a wish to God."
Chito: "Eh?! Can I really?"
Ren: "God always keeps His word."
Chito: "Haha, Yuri even said today that Gods are all fake."
Chito: "If you are a real God, I want Yuri to be warm. I feel like her body is losing its temperature."
"..." This sentence made Ren feel a block in his heart, unable to clear it.
"What's wrong? Ren, you seem to be in a bad mood." Kanae worriedly stroked Ren's cheek.
"Ren, did something happen?" Megumi also woke up from his chest.
Ren rubbed their hair with both hands and returned a reassuring smile: "Nothing, I just want to go out for a bit."
After saying that, a spatial wormhole appeared. The two made space for Ren.
"Megumi, Kanae, cover yourselves with the blanket, be careful not to get cold." Although he didn't understand how they could be cold with their current physiques, the two smiled in response to his concern and obediently burrowed under the covers.
Ren put on his black coat and walked into the wormhole.
*****
The suddenly appearing strange screen allowed Chito to converse with a God. Although she didn't know if this thing was an illusion, she found talking to a God quite interesting. However, after she made her wish, the God stopped speaking. Sure enough… the God was fake, just as Yuri said.
The Chat Group member Ren has requested permission to traverse to your world. Do you agree?
A prompt suddenly appeared. Chito stopped the vehicle. After a moment of thought, she chose to agree. She didn't know what would happen, but she had a premonition, a premonition that her wish might come true.
Yuri: "Why did you stop?"
"..." "I think I really met a God."
"A God? Aren't those fictional? Chito-chan didn't really make a wish to a God, did she?"
"Yes, I wished for Yuri to be warmer."
"Haha, that kind of wish is too humble! If it were me, I would definitely wish to find delicious canned food tomorrow."
"Perhaps, your wishes could be a little bigger."
"Wow! Someone's talking! It's not a ghost, is it?!" Yuri was startled and pressed herself against Chito.
"You are…" Chito looked at the front of the vehicle. A man in a black coat stood there, she didn't know when he had appeared, looking at them with a gentle smile.
"Didn't you just make a wish to me?"
"Are you really a God?" Chito asked blankly.
Yuri blinked her hazy big eyes in confusion. "This is the God Chito-chan saw? I seem to see him too. So… he really exists, right?"
"Yes." Ren was just wondering how to help these two girls. Yuri could be taken away through domination. But it seemed that group members couldn't permanently stay in other worlds. Separating the two of them also seemed unlikely.
Just then, a new prompt appeared in the Chat Group.
[Ding! It has been detected that the world of group member Chito has entered the post-Doomsday era. The special function of permanent migration for group members has been activated! ]
[In a world after the Doomsday, group members can spend 10,000 doomsday points to permanently migrate to another group member's world! ]
This function was activated really timely. He was just worrying about how to deal with these two girls, and a solution presented itself. He simply asked directly: "Do you want to go to another world? A world where humans live."
"Eh!" The confused Yuri, however, asked a question that surprised Ren. "Are there really no more humans left in the world?"
Ren shook his head. The moment he arrived, he activated Bankai, attempting to dominate everyone in the world. But he found that the entire world was left with only Chito and Yuri. The engineers and others they should have encountered did not exist. This place was even more despair-inducing than the Girls' Last Tour he knew.
"I am not a God, but I truly exist. Are you willing to trust me and leave this place?" Ren extended his right hand.
The two girls looked at each other, not understanding. They weren't sure if gods were real. What they feared was an even deeper despair after hope.
Chito clenched her small fists, "If… you can grant my wish."
"No problem, oho." Ren-kun's hand touched Yuri's cheek.
"So warm!" The biting cold wind disappeared. The shivering cold disappeared. In its place was warmth, such warmth…
"Am I… already dead?" Chito touched Yuri's small hand.
"Yuri! It's real! You're alive!" Tears unconsciously streamed down Chito's face. It seemed they had truly found hope.
"It seems you've made your decision." Ren-kun smiled as he looked at the two girls.
"Yes! We beg the Seitenshi to take us away, we want to live in a place where people exist."
"As you wish."
*****
[Ding! Ren-kun has sent a private Red Packet to Chito!]
[Ding! Chito has claimed the Red Packet!]
[Ding! Chito has applied for permanent migration to Chat Group member Ren-kun. Do you wish to grant permission?]
"Grant."
…
Kato Megumi and Kanae looked at Ren-kun with confusion. When he appeared, two cute girls wearing military coats were with him.
"Humans!" Yuri and Chito were filled with surprise. They had finally found humans. No one wants to get along well with loneliness and despair.
Ren-kun turned on the lights. "Megumi, Kanae, could I trouble you to give them a hot bath and change their clothes?"
"Okay." The two didn't ask further, getting out of bed naked. Under their curious and somewhat shy gazes, he led them to the bathroom.
Ren-kun finally felt relieved. He had no regrets or pity about spending ten thousand doomsday points to bring Chito here, because he wanted to do it. So he did it. No reason.
Opening the Chat Group, it had already exploded.
Bronya: "Ren-kun, did something urgent happen?"
Exusiai: "Ren-kun was so gentle just now."
Nami: "I also want to know, what happened to the new person named Chito? Even you admitted you're a god, I remember you used to disdain that title?"
Momonga: "Indeed, the big boss often disrespects gods, Aqua, like this one."
Aqua: "Hmph!" Rarely, Aqua didn't talk back.
Saeko Busujima: "And that new permanent migration function, Ren-kun seems to have given Chito ten thousand doomsday points, has Chito permanently migrated to Ren-kun's world?"
Ren-kun: "It's a long story, Chito's situation is a bit special."
Ren-kun: "That place is a post-apocalyptic world."
Bronya: "Post-apocalyptic? Does that mean the planet was destroyed?"
Silver Wolf: "If the planet was destroyed, Chito couldn't have survived. It should be another kind of apocalypse."
Ren-kun: "Hmm, the apocalypse in Chito's world should be human-based."
Ren-kun: "Civilization has vanished, and the world is left with only two people, Chito and her good friend Yuri, two girls."
Shinobu Kocho: "Only two people left in the whole world? This…"
Emilia: "What a despairing world. No wonder that girl said she had to get along with despair."
Tushan Rongrong: "So pitiful… Ren-kun, how are they now?"
Ren-kun: "I've brought them back here for now, they'll live with me from now on."
Tushan Rongrong: "That's great!"
Shinobu Kocho: "For them, Ren-kun is truly a god."
Seitenshi: "Are there really gods in the world?"
Avenger Girl: "Seitenshi, are you really the Seitenshi?"
Seitenshi: "I am the Seitenshi, may I ask who you are…"
Tendo Kisara: "Tendo Kisara." She changed her nickname.
Seitenshi: "Tendou family?"
Tendo Kisara. This surname belongs to someone from the Tendou family. In reality, both of them are students at Miwa Academy. It's just that the Seitenshi is busy with state affairs and has never been to the academy.
