Gensokyo's Paradise Plan

THUD!!!

Yukari shot up like a violently released spring, making the entire bed shudder. Her once soft and relaxed body was now as tense as a drawn bowstring, her fingers tearing through the bedsheets in her unconscious grip.

Her eyes rolled back so far that they nearly disappeared, her consciousness teetering on the edge of evaporating entirely.

A full minute passed before Yukari finally regained her senses, her heart pounding as she stared at Rin in horror.

'What the hell just happened?!'

It felt like an electric current had surged through her entire body, the sheer intensity nearly knocking her out on the spot.

But all she got in response was Rin's extremely kind smile—

"Ready? I'm starting for real now~"

Yukari's face twisted in terror.

"Wai—HNNNGH—!! MMMMPH!!!!!"

Even as she desperately bit into the pillow, her anguished wails still echoed uncontrollably through the room.

Under the relentless 50x sensitivity boost, her strained nerves finally—

SNAPPED

….

"Did you hear something weird just now?" Kaguya, slurping her milk tea, blinked in confusion.

That scream had startled her so badly she thought she was playing a horror game.

Meanwhile, Mokou, sprawled lazily beside her and still fiddling with her handheld console, didn't even look up.

"You're hearing things. Don't think you can weasel out of losing with that excuse."

"Pfft. As if. The only reason you're still struggling is because I'm going easy on you." Kaguya scoffed, her fingers suddenly flying across the buttons in a frenzy.

Mokou's expression darkened as her character's health bar dwindled. Desperate, she shot a glance at Kaguya's smug grin—

then abruptly lunged for her console.

"YOU DAMN CHICKEN—!!"

"Just stretching. Don't be so jumpy."

"WITH A WHOLE FIST?! WHO THE HELL YOU TRYING TO FOOL?!"

"I said I was just stretchi—DIE!!!"

"SCREW YOU, I'LL END YOU!!!"

The two were instantly at each other's throats again, their scuffle leaving Cirno and the other little ones staring in bewilderment.

But their noisy brawl conveniently drowned out the increasingly concerning noises coming from Yukari's room.

"Hah—hah… ngh…!"

"S-slower… my b-back! Nngh—AH~!! It's g-going numb…!"

"Eek—! T-too sore… I c-can't… I r-really can't—MMPH!!"

Between her desperate pleas, Yukari's expression was on the verge of total collapse. Drenched in sweat, her body trembled violently with every press and knead of Rin's hands.

Compared to this 50x torture, last night's trial session might as well have been a gentle tickle.

The louder Yukari screamed, the harder Rin worked her over, only to suddenly switch to feather-light strokes the moment her voice weakened.

The teasing, lingering touches were somehow worse than the bone-deep adjustments, her fair skin flushing a deep, enticing red.

And this was with Rin only intermittently triggering the sensitivity boost.

By the time Yukari had slumped, panting and barely coherent, Rin had already locked the full 50x effect onto his hands.

The moment both palms pressed firmly against the small of her back.

THUD!!!

The bed shook violently again, nearly collapsing outright.

Yukari's fingers dug deep into the mattress, clawing out jagged gashes. The pillow she'd been biting slipped free as her lips parted soundlessly.

Sweat-drenched strands of hair clung to her flushed face, the disheveled mess only emphasizing her helpless, vulnerable state.

Sensing Rin's amused gaze, Yukari's eye twitched weakly before she turned her face back into the pillow.

The tips of her ears, peeking out, were a delicate pink—so cute they practically begged to be nibbled.

Just as she was catching her breath, Rin cheerfully announced—

"Ten-second break. Next phase starts soon, turn over."

"TEN SECONDS?!" Yukari's voice cracked. She hadn't even recovered yet!

Before she could protest, Rin had already flipped her onto her back.

To ensure the ultimate experience for his first premium member, Rin had quietly dialed up the sensitivity another five levels for each new phase.

But by the second phase, Yukari's mind had already begun to fray—

"N-no… NO!! NNGH—!!!"

"Ra—RAN… S-SAVE MEEEE~!!"

"I'M LOSING IT—I'M ACTUALLY—GYAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!"

….

Back in the kitchen, Ran's ears twitched as she stirred a pot of soup.

'Was that Lady Yukari screaming just now? …No, she was just getting a massage. Must've misheard.'

"Something wrong?" Keine glanced over.

"Nothing. Just stress, maybe. Thought I heard something."

"Make sure to rest properly. Don't push yourself too hard. Want some milk tea? Reimu and the others brought over a few cups."

"Sure. What flavors?"

"All papaya."

"...?" Ran blinked but accepted the cup from Keine anyway.

'Since when did Reimu and Marisa care about this stuff?'

"Tastes good. Not too sweet."

"Right? And I think there's a tiny effect. Just a little."

"Hmm… Though any bigger might get inconvenient."

"Just don't overdo it, I guess."

Their entire conversation was overheard by Reimu and Marisa, who were eavesdropping outside.

Reimu's face paled as she stared at her empty cup in despair.

'Still nothing?! Was she really hopeless?!'

Seeing her shattered expression, Marisa patted her shoulder reassuringly.

"Don't give up. The boss always stocks weird stuff, maybe something'll work?"

"And if not, Kaguya's place sells supplements. You could ask her."

"Right! Kaguya!"

Reimu immediately rushed toward Kaguya, who was still wrestling with Mokou, and yanked the two apart.

But before she could explain, her gaze dropped to Kaguya's chest.

…

A heavy silence fell.

Her family's products were clearly useless.

"What?"

"Never mind. Keep fighting."

"...???"
