Volume 2 - CH 5

Juumonji Risa (Happy End)

“This place is fine right. Fighting each other on the riverbank, such youth.”

We came to the riverbank near my house.

The place is always filled with campers during spring and summer but now it’s almost the end of November right now.

No one would visit the riverbank when it’s so cold out like this.

“Tsk, what’s up with you! We are best friends right!? Why did you hurt Risa like that!?”

“Best friends? Y, you really are a funny guy huh……”

This straightforwardness he has ever since he was a child, it really grew funnier to me as I get older.

“You want me to laugh to death!?” I retorted.

“Hurt her you say? I and Risa-chan are in love you know? Just how long do you plan on being such a disgusting siscon?”

“That’s right Nii-san, you are just a bother.”

“W, what are you saying! Risa!? Didn’t we promise to be with each other even though we are siblings!”

“You’re annoying, just drop dead Nii-san.”

“Wha……!?”

According to Emi’s research, Takeru and Risa confessed their love to each other a week ago.

It’s super disgusting right?

Just what kind of brother and sister are these two? Do they think they are game characters or something? I can only laugh.

“Oh, Emi. [Hold Takeru still will you].”

“Okay.”

“R, Release me, Sasaki!?”

Subjected to my [Dominating Decree], Emi holds Takeru and pushes him down.

Takeru is a simple idiot who won’t lay his hand on women no matter what so he won’t resist anyway.

“Risa-chan, let’s show how close we are in front of your brother.”

“Yes.”

First, Risa kisses my forehead.

Yup, it’s really better when the other party takes their time like this.

“Stop! Don’t touch her you bastard!”

“Man, you’re really noisy, I will lend you that woman instead alright. Just kiss him or something will you.”

“You! What are you making your own girlfriend do!? Sasaki wouldn’t do something like that!”

“Oh she will, I have a Gift that can [Manipulate People] after all. A single word from me and Emi and Risa would do whatever I say you know.”

“G, Gift……!? No way, because of that Risa is!?”

“Exactly.”

He caught on just now?

10 years, I have been using it for 10 years without restraints but this useless idiot didn’t notice anything at all…….

My best friend really is all talk huh.

“Oi, Risa. [Lick my shoes].”

“Yes…….”

Risa crawls on all four and stretches her tongue toward my shoes.

Now he will realize that my Gift is for real even if he doesn’t want to.

“You coward! Screw your Gift! You Gift Holder trash!?”

“Man…….if I’m trash then that would make you the same you know? You also have a Gift after all.”

“But……I don’t even know what my Gift is……”

“Your power is nullifying other Gifts. I’ve been calling it [Anti-Gift] you see. You’ve been using your Gift unconsciously all this time you idiot! Just keep your eyes open and look at the end of your beloved sister!”

That being said, his Gift only applies to himself.

All I have to do is enslave everyone around him with my Gift.

I still haven’t forgotten how this idiot messed up my pride 10 years ago after all.

“Let me go, Sasaki!?”

“……”

Risa got up.

I will take my time and slowly crush Takeru’s dignity.

“RISAAAA! RISAAAAA!!”

The noise is kinda annoying though.

Guess I should speed this up a little huh.

“RISAAAAAAAA!! RISAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! I WILL NEVER GIVE IN TO YOU HIDEYORIIIIIIII!!!!!”

Tearing up and screaming at me now? Pathetic.

He’s so pathetic that it’s just funny to me now. As expected of my best friend.

“!? Eh?”

“Ha?”

Emi let go of Takeru’s body.

“Tsk, the hell are you doing!? [Emi! Restrain Takeru!].”

“Y, Yes!”

Emi hurriedly reached toward Takeru.

………but.

“Eh? W, Who are you?…….what am I-?”

As though she couldn’t understand what she was doing, Emi takes her hands off Takeru.

……don’t tell me!?

“It seems my Gift has evolved huh.”

“!?”

“It looks like anyone who touches my body can undo your Gift now.”

Im, Impossible!?

T, That has never happened before!

“EMII!?”

“HIIEE!? W, who are you!?”

Emi seems frightened.

No good, her enslavement was undone.

This damn useless bitch!!

“[Emi!! Jump into the river and die!!]”

“Wha!? Hideyori, you–!?”

“N, No….I…..why……”

Emi’s body moved by itself and leapt into the river.

Her head was above the water level for a while.

She struggled, struggled, and struggled.

Until her figure can not be seen anymore.

“Tsk, so it only works with your touch huh. So it’s not like my Gift can be completely nullified after all…….”

Just like that, I tried to escape with Risa.

“YOU WON’T GET AWAY!”

“GUH!?”

Takeru tackled and pinned me down.

I can’t move.

“[Risa!? K–……].”

“DIE!”

“……!?”

Takeru’s fist rammed into my face over and over and over again.

Over and over and over………..

“He’s already dead, Nii-san……”

“Haa Haa Haa…..”

Emi, and Hideyori, the cause of their suffering have died…….

“Hey……., we are best friends right…..why……WHY DID IT TURN OUT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!”

The boy shouted out his anger on the riverbank.

And his regret would forever be with him…………

“Haa…..”

Last night’s dream was the Happy End for Risa route.

It’s commonly called the route of forbidden love.

An ending with no hope and a forbidden relationship.

“Is it because I met the Juumonji siblings yesterday……..”

In order to get to the Bad End for this route, Takeru would have to fail to catch Hideyori who escaped with Risa after Emi’s death.

In that ending, Risa will be found dead the following day.

Well, Hideyori was hunted down and killed by Takeru the day after though……

“Rather, as I thought there’s nothing good about being Hideyori at all right!!!!!! ARGHHHHHHHH!!!”

Moreover, Emi was killed as well.

I hope I can diverge the course of the game so I can at least avoid her death.

After all, ever since my strange encounter with Emi, I have grown to empathize with her……………
