Chapter 46 – Sub Episode (1)
The day after clearing Yuna’s sub-episode.
I lay in bed for the first time in a while, doing nothing, and checked my rewards, my mouth agape.
It was understandable, as the reward was that significant.
[Reward: The ability to see the future of coins and certain stocks.]
Seriously. The ability to see the future? What better reward could there be?
I excitedly claimed the reward, and as I did, something dropped from the air with a thud—a watch? No. More accurately, something that looked like a rubber band.
‘What is this?’
I was bewildered by the band that had fallen into my hand.
I had naturally expected a file or something, since it said I could see the future of Bitcoin. But what I received was a band…
Still, just in case, I put it on my wrist.
-Ding.
Suddenly, the band made a sound, and a large rectangular screen appeared.
[Reward: The ability to see the future of coins and certain stocks.]
[Detailed Reward Information]
[Bitcoin stock information up to 2020]
[Netflix stock information up to 2020]
[Monster Beverage stock information up to 2020]
[The Korean stock that rose the most from October 2009 to October 2010]
It began to display absurd information.
Looking at those words, I realized. This band contained an immense amount of information, far beyond what I could have imagined.
‘Stock information up to the 2020s?!’
It was information that anyone with billions would want.
The problem was that the information would only be useful by mid-2010 at the earliest, so it wasn’t particularly helpful for my current financial situation.
‘The Korean stock that rose the most in a year.’
Fortunately, it seemed I didn’t need to worry about that. Giving me such great information…
The episodes are indeed divine.
How can they be so generous, whether it’s a sub or main episode?
‘Wait, then what does Michiko’s episode give?’
Yuna was clearly working in a stock-related field, so it made sense, but Michiko is just an ordinary college student.
So what would it give?
A pass to use her body?
Even if this world was taken from a third-rate ero-villain-like Tsukuru-style game company, would it give something like that?
‘I don’t think that’s likely.’
Then what could be a possible reward…
After thinking for a while, I decided to use the simplest method.
‘Since things have turned out this way, should I go to Hanaya again?’
When I went to Hanaya on an errand for my mom last time, I heard that Michiko would be there this week.
Since I had to capture Michiko anyway, I might as well take care of it today, since I have nothing else to do.
‘The last time, I couldn’t get her because I didn’t have enough money.’
If I have a decent amount of money like now, I should be able to go all the way without any problems.
Thinking that, Takuya got dressed and went outside.
Ah. Of course, he didn’t forget to grab his money before leaving.
***
At the time Takuya was getting dressed and heading to Hanaya.
Haruna, the owner of Hanaya and now a 70-year-old grandmother, watched her granddaughter diligently putting on makeup and thought.
‘Hoh ho. It seems like our granddaughter is ready to get married.’
It had been quite some time since her granddaughter started managing the store, but every day when it was time to open, she would put on makeup so diligently.
Her granddaughter, who had never shown any interest in makeup during middle school, high school, and even recently when she entered college, was now putting on makeup so diligently?
At least, the reason certainly wasn’t because of the old geezers living nearby.
The reason was probably.
“Hoh ho. It’s summer~”
‘Love.’
Michiko, blushing with embarrassment at Haruna’s mumbling, yelled at her grandmother.
“Ah, Grandma! Stop saying weird things and go to the hospital already!”
“Eeeh. My granddaughter is scolding her grandma, what’s the point of living any longer!”
“Ah. Please!!”
It was something that was only possible because she was so close to Haruna.
Haruna grumbled like that, but still gave her granddaughter, who was diligently putting on makeup, the best advice she could.
“When a man is like a wooden block, just let him grab your big breasts and—”
“Grandma, pleeease!!”
Michiko’s face turned as red as a tomato at her grandmother’s high-level sex joke.
She had lured Takuya into the back room before, but she was a virgin.
‘Haa… Why did I do that?!’
How could a virgin, who blushed so easily at something like this, have gotten a man to come inside?
Even Michiko herself didn’t know.
Back then, when she was about to be taken by Takuya, Michiko remembered what she had done when she woke up after Takuya left.
‘Why, why did I do that?!’
And she was surprised at how bold she had been.
She had never been so proactive when trying to seduce a man, at least not that she could remember?!
Thanks to that, now that she had come to her senses, Michiko was still curious about how she had done such a thing.
At least, it wasn’t like she hadn’t expected that kind of situation! But at least, she had never acted so proactively… no, so lewd in her life.
That’s why Michiko was curious about why she had done that.
If she could figure it out.
‘M-maybe next time I can go all the way…?’
Maybe next time she could go all the way.
Michiko blushed again as she thought that.
After being teased by her grandmother, Haruna, who was now really about to leave, said to her granddaughter with regret.
“Hoh ho. Then this old lady will be going now~”
“Ugh. Go quickly!”
Michiko told her to leave quickly, but she didn’t forget to give her a pendant with the family and home phone numbers, just in case something happened.
Haruna looked at her granddaughter with pride and then left Hanaya.
No. To be precise, just as she was about to leave Hanaya, a man entered the store.
“Hello, Grandma Haruna.”
“Yes, I have to go now. The payment is with my granddaughter.”
“Okay.”
The man was a child from the nearby Mori family… or rather, he looked like a young man, not a child.
Haruna looked at the Mori child for a moment, then subtly turned her gaze to her granddaughter.
“O-oh, welcome…♥”
Seeing that reaction, it seemed like her granddaughter’s husband was this child.
When she was young, she used to look at her husband like that.
He didn’t look bad, and he seemed to be in good shape.
‘He’s a decent man.’
As expected of her granddaughter, she had an eye for men.
Haruna looked at her granddaughter for a moment with eyes that seemed to see her past self, then patted the young man’s shoulder.
-Pat pat.
“Do your best.”
“Uh, yes? Thank you?”
With those words, she left Hanaya.
Ah. Of course, she didn’t forget to take measures for her granddaughter’s love before leaving.
[Item sorting in progress, please come back in about two hours.]
Having given a gift for her granddaughter, Haruna left the store.
‘Hoh ho. I hope my granddaughter is good at contraception~ Hmm, knowing my granddaughter, she’ll probably try to get pregnant without contraception?’
She thought that she would probably see her great-granddaughter soon.
***
I was momentarily bewildered by the mysterious encouragement from Haruna.
Michiko looked quite different from when I had seen her before.
Before, she was like a tomboyish older sister who dressed casually in the neighborhood, but now.
“Ah, hi, it’s been a while?”
It was like seeing a ‘female’ who had realized she was a ‘woman’ and was just beginning to bloom.
How could I be so sure?
The light makeup on her face, the eye smile she gave me as if to make sure I knew she was a woman, and most importantly.
The blush on her face.
If this wasn’t someone who had realized they were a woman, then who else could it be?
‘She’s so hot.’
For the record, I really liked this kind of look.
Because it meant that many people must have had a crush on Michiko when she was a tomboy in school, but she was showing me a ‘woman’s’ face that she hadn’t shown them.
That’s why I liked this version of Michiko so much.
“Sis, I’m still sick… can I go inside again today?”
“Today is a bit…”
I revealed my greed at Michiko’s refusal and asked again.
“I’m really sick. I think I need to go ‘all the way’ today. Is there any way?”
“All the way is…”
Even after saying this much, Michiko was still trying to reject me, so I had no choice but to put my lips on hers to stop her.
After kissing Michiko, I said.
“Even now?”
“U-uhh…♥”
After thinking for a while at my surprise kiss, Michiko slightly turned her head and said.
“J-just a little bit, okay?♥”
Hearing those words, I was sure.
‘I’m going all the way.’
I was going all the way today.
And so, Michiko and I went into the back room.
-Squeeze♥
“Let’s go quickly.”
“Okay♥”
To repay the humiliation from last time.
