C465 - Inner Voice: All Heroines Hear My Inner Voice
🕑 Added 2024-10-20 11:53:21 +0000 UTCAhem! Let's go back to a few moments ago where Eiji and Hijiri put their clothes back on after "confronting" for an hour in every corner of the room.
"Eiji, do you know how to free Arata?" Asked Hijiri whose face was still a little sweaty and exuding the charm of a woman.
Since the beginning she was a woman of course but that's not the woman we're talking about.
Eiji knew it was something that could only be seen in women who had been marked by him.
In short his woman who had just finished exercising with him.
"Isn't that easy? Just hit it until it shatters."
"S-Simple as that? I know with your power, you can shatter it with crude methods but as far as I know... this kind of seal will harm the person trapped inside if it is destroyed from the outside."
Hijiri was telling the truth. She was a little worried that Arata would also be shattered along with the crystal that confined him after Eiji hit him.
Eiji knew what the girl said made sense. Even in the original work, Arata shattered the seal from the inside after Ilia and Sora successfully added the Ira archive to become his fourth archive and rebooted the Magic King Element in his body.
Eiji had also seen seals with such abilities in many other franchises.
Although he actually didn't care if Arata would be shattered along with the crystal. He cared about Hijiri's feelings and didn't mind using other, gentler methods to save her cousin.
[Excuse me, may I comment?]
Miss System suddenly asked first before commenting.
That was unusual. Is this woman sick? But Eiji allowed it.
'Say it, Miss System.'
[First of all I'm not sick... Don't call me sick just because I asked politely. And not just because of caring about Hijiri's feelings. You also refrained from killing Arata for other reasons, right?]
'That's right. For example I still want to get rewards from-'
[You still want to give him more green hats, right?]
Miss System interrupted him and said his true intentions without any filter at all. Eiji didn't answer and held his chin with one hand.
Now was not the time to talk to Miss System, he still had to save his friend.
"If you're worried about it. I have another method that shouldn't harm Arata."
"Really? What method is that?"
"You'll see. Hijiri, step back a little."
"Oh okay."
Hijiri obeyed what her boyfriend said. She looked at Eiji curiously as the boy only placed one hand on the crystal layer that sealed Arata.
There was no magic circle, but Eiji's palm glowed with purple light and released a terrifying suction power.
A lot of magic energy in the air was even sucked into the boy's palm. Just like when he freed Raphaeline from Spacetime Amber, this time Eiji also used his "Devouring" ability.
Since the crystal that sealed Arata was definitely made of magic which was basically energy, he could use that ability to absorb it.
The process is not long.
In just 5 seconds, the crystal disappeared and Arata fell to the floor. Unlike in the original work where his body would be caught by Arin, he now had no one to catch him.
Even Hijiri who was worried about the boy just watched the scene unfold before her eyes. Then she heaved a sigh of relief and looked at her boyfriend, Eiji with admiration.
As expected of Eiji. Don't know what he just did but whatever it was, she didn't choose the wrong boyfriend.
...
Not long after, Arata woke up.
He should have been happy to be free from the seal that imprisoned him but seeing the two people in front of him...
His mood soured!
Eiji and Hijiri together. Doesn't that mean what he heard before...
Arata didn't want to believe it, he tried to think positively that what the voices he heard when he was still sealed were his hallucinations.
The two people were even dressed quite nicely and did not look like people who had just finished an intense workout. Well although Hijiri who looked even more beautiful was sweating. And among the monster blood on the floor, he also saw some white liquid.
No way.
It must be a certain liquid secreted by monsters!
"Eiji, thank you. You saved me again... Hijiri is also here." Arata said with a forced smile and a complicated look in his eyes. He wanted to ask what Eiji and Hijiri's relationship was now but he didn't dare!
He was still trying to convince himself that his cousin only loved him. There was no way the feelings of love nurtured over the years would lose to a man Hijiri had only known for a few days.
Arata didn't understand why Hijiri could even be on good terms with Eiji. Weren't they enemies before?
When did the air between the two of them become intimate!
Eiji knew the protagonist who looked calm on the surface was actually roaring in his heart. He smiled kindly and said, "That's what friends are for, Arata. You must be confused about what happened to you. But you'll get an explanation once we get out of this place and go back to school."
"I see."
Friend? Are you sure you're my friend? Arata tried to hold back the emotions that welled up in his heart when he heard 'friend" from Eiji's mouth.
That boy knew he loved his cousin but as his friend, he dared to have sex with that girl behind his back?
Although Arata didn't believe it, he said all that in his heart. As a defense mechanism for his fragile heart, he pretended not to hear the lewd noises Eiji and Hijiri made when they were exercising earlier.
He honestly felt humiliated and embarrassed if those two people knew he was eavesdropping. Unfortunately Arata didn't know. Not only Eiji and Hijiri, all of the Trinity Seven also knew the miserable thing he had experienced.
"Arata, I'm glad Eiji managed to free you." Hijiri said with a smile that left Arata dazed.
Arata was happy but when he thought that Hijiri was no longer clean because of Eiji... He wanted to go crazy. Fortunately, he had good self-control.
"Hijiri... I'm glad to see you again. By the way how did you come here with Eiji?" Arata asked carefully.
"I'm also actually a participant in the tournament your school is holding. To be more precise, Lugh and I are representatives of Liber Academy." Hijiri felt sorry for Arata, she knew the boy was fooling himself. From his inner voice earlier, she knew he heard what she and Eiji had done earlier.
Of course, she didn't mind telling Arata what her and Eiji's relationship was now.
But since Arata decided to play it that way. She wouldn't mention it for now.
"So that's it..."
Looking at Arata who seemed relieved by Hijiri's words, Eiji shook his head. Compared to the protagonists he had slapped before, Arata turned out to be the most cowardly.
At least in this case.
In the original work Arata never showed his cowardly side because the development of his relationship with the heroines was very smooth.
Even if there were some pebbles or boulders blocking his way, Arata could open the way by force using his powers.
But now?
Eiji actually refrained from telling Arata that his cousin, Hijiri was very warm and slippery.
He didn't do it because he didn't want to be misunderstood as a blonde villain.
'Miss System, don't comment.'
[...I didn't say anything.]
Miss System complained.
Eiji misunderstood, he thought in that situation Miss System would say "Isn't that right? I remember when you first started your journey, you had blonde hair." something like that.
"Alright everyone, let's go back."
"Un, Eiji."
"I agree... But Hijiri, why are you walking with a slight limp? Wait, forget what I asked!"
"...."
Unlike Hijiri who had good acting talent as a woman.
Arata's acting was not very good.
He had to learn from an expert like someone surnamed Seiya.
...
"Hiss! It's cold! Why is my body so cold?!"
Still, Arata was really pathetic.
Even when they had just returned to the stadium where his consciousness or soul had successfully united with his body. The boy was shivering from the cold because not long ago Akeno had frozen the Astral Trinity with her ice magic.
Ignoring Arata who was hugging himself and girls like Arin and Yui who at least still asked if the boy was okay.
Eiji observed the girls who were now fighting in the arena in confusion.
Currently, Host Selina was excitedly commenting.
"Uwoohhh! This is the fiercest match yet! Those two beautiful red-haired girls seem to be on another level!"
"Look at that hellfire and that energy called power of destruction. They both erase each other's existence! The Holy swordsman, Xenovia is also unleashing her true power! Wow... What's with that red armor with dragon wings?!"
"Now she can do aerial combat with Akeno-san! The two of them are also fighting fiercely!"
Just as Selina said.
The people who were now fighting on the arena were Rias, Akeno, Mio and Xenovia. Rias seemed to be playing more seriously, she was emitting Power of Destruction whose level was on par with her older brother.
If before going to the Library of Demise, Eiji hadn't replaced the arena's magic barrier with his own magic barrier.
The stadium, and everyone watching this would've been blown up countless times every time Rias' giant Pod ball collided with Mio's giant hellfire ball.
Not just using their special powers. Sometimes Rias also used other magic such as water. Although not as powerful as Sona's water magic, her water magic level was enough to stun the mages of this world.
That's because not only was it very powerful, Rias released that magic very quickly.
However, Mio also did the same thing. She was able to release purple lightning magic and even create tornadoes. She was also playing seriously, as a pair of long fire-burning horns were already growing from her head.
Explosion after earth-shaking explosion occurred in the arena.
The sky above was no better either. The scene there was horrifying because not only was the sky enveloped by Akeno's holy lightning, there was also a green aura that was so dominating that it made many of the girls in the audience seats wet their pants.
It was natural because currently, Xenovia was using her Booster Gear and had entered her Balance Breaker mode. The green aura that exuded the oppression of a dragon was hers.
With a sword wrapped in dragon energy and holy power, Xenovia unleashed a giant slash that was at least enough to cut through the city. At that moment, Akeno would also always fire her giant holy lightning.
The collision of their two attacks blew up the sky many times. Many people felt that the sky was about to collapse.
Master Biblia, Master Liber and Abyss Trinity even looked at the girls who were fighting in horror.
"When did the finals start?" Eiji asked. By the way he was now at the location where the hosts and commentators sat. Some of his girls were still there.
"Eh Eiji, are you back?" Just like the others, Irina was too focused on watching the match to realize Eiji was back.
Eiji was silent. He nodded and said, "Yes."
"It only started seven minutes ago."
"What about the semifinals? Who won that round?"
[Has Ana already sacrificed to the heavens? Damn, am I too late?!]
Irina and the other girls who could hear his inner voice giggled.
At this moment, it wasn't Irina who answered. But someone who tugged on Eiji's sleeve flirtatiously.
"The winners are Rias and Akeno. Me and Arsha admit defeat."
"So that's what happened. Ana, you're here too."
Eiji feigned surprise at the beautiful black-haired girl who was now standing beside him.
Of course, he had actually realized that the girl and even Arsha were standing not far behind him when he and the others had just returned from the Library of Demise.
It seemed like his inner voice at that time managed to cancel out the stupid thing Anastasia was about to do
"Yes, can we talk somewhere else? Eiji, please." Anastasia blinked her eyes, her eyes were as soft as puddles that anyone would think the girl would confess to Eiji.
Irina, Hijiri and the other girls who were there thought so. They couldn't help but stare at Eiji as he continued to woo other girls.
Eiji would complain if he knew what the girls were thinking. Who was wooing whom? After returning he just stayed silent and wondered what the situation was.
Anastasia was the one wooing him!
"Sure, let's go."
"Fufu, follow me."
The girls who knew Eiji well were not surprised to see him not refusing to go somewhere with Anastasia.
It was Eiji after all. It wasn't Eiji if he refused an invitation from a beautiful woman.
Seeing Anastasia and Eiji about to go somewhere. Arata wasn't not far away wanting to stop them but his vision suddenly went dark and he fainted.
"Arata-san."
"O-Onii-san... The wounds on your body haven't actually healed yet."
Arin and Yui said anxiously. They were still worried about Arata even though one of them no longer called the boy "Husband" and both chose to call the medical staff to carry him to the hospital.
"Ana..."
Arsha actually wanted to follow her best friend. She thought Anastasia stopped sacrificing for her sake, but saw the girl pulling Eiji's arm somewhere.
She felt sad... Did she misunderstand?
Anastasia didn't quit for her sake but for a man's sake?! Their friendship seemed to be nothing more than that!
But considering the girl didn't have much time left. Arsha wanted to be with her as long as possible but when she wanted to follow the two people, her shoulders were held by two hands.
"Your name is Arsha, right? Why don't we watch the game while eating popcorn?" Kurumi said.
"L-Let go of me!"
"Hehe hello Arsha, I'm Maria Naruse. Don't worry about your friend. I'm sure Eiji-san can save her. So you might as well stay with us." Maria grinned.
"That boy can save Ana? Wait... Do you guys even know what's wrong with that girl?!"
Arsha was shocked, she tried to shake off the girl's hand that was clutching her shoulder. Unfortunately it was in vain.
The strength of the two girls was too strong!
Seriously, why were the girls who seemed to have something to do with Eiji nothing normal?
She, the Paladin-class mage was forcibly dragged to the audience seat.
Arsha wanted to cry, she wanted to go where Anastasia was but now she could only hope that what the girl named Maria said was true.
...
[I suspect it's the same as a love confession from a typical high school student. Ana will take me to a quiet place like the building behind the school or something.]
[And she really did! We're now in a certain corner that's outside the stadium. It's like a small park that can be used as a place to do perverted things.]
[Could it be that Ana wants us to...]
"Eiji, are you thinking perverted things about me?"
Anastasia leaned into Eiji's body, shoulder bumping into the boy's shoulder. There was a mischievous smile on her beautiful face.
Eiji who looked confused said, "I'm not thinking like that."
"...."
If Anastasia couldn't hear the boy's inner voice, she would have been fooled by his confused expression that looked so natural.
Eiji's acting was as good as an actor's.
She certainly didn't believe what he said and moved to stand in front of him.
Her gaze fell on his handsome face which soon made her own face feel hot.
Anastasia turned her face to the side before shyly saying, "I was just joking... But if you really think such things about me, I don't mind."
"Seriously?" Eiji widened his eyes.
[I wonder how much Ana likes me? But she seems to like me a lot! Hey this is weird, I don't know why she even likes me.]
Just kidding.
Isn't it because of the toy Miss System gave him?
Of course the heroines including Anastasia didn't know this.
Anastasia who heard Eiji's inner voice wondered should she tell him about the things she saw in the past? She was worried that the boy hated her.
After all who would feel comfortable having their past watched by others in movie form? And that included the perverted things he did!
So she nervously said, "Y-Yes, I don't mind if the boy I like has dirty thoughts about me."
"!!"
Arata would definitely go crazy if he heard the girl he liked say that to another man. That other man, Eiji of course.
He didn't expect Anastasia to be more honest than Lilith even though both of them had the same archives.
Anastasia even turned around and smiled in a cute way before adding.
"But don't get your hopes up, okay? Even though I'm a mage from the Luxuria archive... in matters like that I suck."
[Lilith who owns the Luxuria archive also sucks at things like that. She often stammers whenever I tease her.]
[Compared to Lilith, Ana is actually more brave and honest than that girl!]
Lilith who heard this from inside the stadium was annoyed.
Eijis mocked her and dared to compare her to Anastasia. Still, what does it mean to suck at something like that?
Is that lewd stuff?
Lilith's face turned red...
[Lilith: Eijiii!]
[Momo: Eiji-san is very popular~]
[Nana: Hmph! That beast keeps looking for prey every day!]
[Sona: Lilith-san, are you yelling in the group chat on purpose?]
[Lilith: S-Sorry, I didn't mean to.]
Anastasia giggled, so Lilith was just as lame as her? She was happy, especially when Eiji thought she was better than the red-haired girl.
"That's actually perfect. Ana, I happen to like you too. From now on you are my girlfriend!"
Eiji didn't even bother to ask why Anastasia liked him, he didn't want to do the routine that protagonists usually do when a beautiful girl confesses to him.
He even said that while hugging Anastasia which made the girl's face look very surprised.
Cute.
"Ehh?!" Anastasia shouted with a very thick blush on her face. She didn't expect Eiji to immediately make her his girlfriend.
Although she did not refuse, or rather was so happy that she might faint, she suddenly remembered something that made her sad.
Her time was almost up.
"Eiji, I'm very happy. B-But I can't actually stay any longer in this world because..."
"About that don't worry. I just cured you. Didn't you feel it? You now have a racing heart."
Eiji said casually.
When he hugged Anastasia, he actually used the same spell he used on Hijiri in the past. However, not like he did on Hijiri. He directly cured Anastasia.
Anastasia didn't see it and didn't realize it because she was so surprised by the answer to her confession. But just then, one of the hands he used to touch her back shone brightly with white light.
"...?"
Anastasi stared at Eiji in a daze.
What did she just hear? But what the boy said was true. Her body that was originally only made of spirit actually didn't feel any physical touch now seemed real.
She could feel her pounding heart and now that she thought about it, she didn't see her body gradually become transparent even though she thought the time was almost up.
Anastasia's eyes turned red, and tears began to roll down her cheeks.
"Hicc... Eiji... Munya?!"
She did not finish her words as Eiji pinched her cheek. The boy's expression looked uncomfortable which made her want to laugh.
"Don't cry, I don't like seeing pretty girls cry."
"Pfft- hehe! Alright... Eiji, thank you."
Anastasia couldn't help but laugh, she wiped her tears and smiled so wide that Eiji felt he saw the illusion of flowers blooming in the background.
It reminded him of the chapters that were usually in shoujo manga.
He wondered if he was hallucinating or did Miss System do that?
[I did.]
Oh, good job. I just found out you can do that with my vision. It scares me a little.
[You're welcome host! Let's continue your romantic scene with the heroine.]

SHADOW
Tftc , Maria and Kurumi coming in clutch to save eiji and ana-L confession ! Also liked the Obito vibe eiji did "what ?! I don’t believe it" "Just kidding, it’s just as I expected". Also wholesome moment with ana, seriously she’s so cute how could you not like her , I can’t believe arata didn’t take care of her and hijiri who’s just a sword now in original work.. not to forget miss system can control eiji body anytime + she probably can use all the powers she gives to him it would be funny if when they have sex in the future she have juice that taste like strawberry like eiji 😂 (also for rewards I had an idea since eiji already have god level headpat why not give him a package of dual cultivation techniques of Su yang from the novel dual cultivation or an ability related to when he have sex with his women he can duplicate one of his lowest abilities and the girl with who he had sex can get it if he agrees or he can also get one ability from the girl he had sex with)
