"Huh? I'm back to normal."
Nakano Nino instinctively blurted out. Just as she was about to find Kisaragi Rin to clarify matters about superhumans, she heard Nakano Itsuki's voice.
"What are you talking about, Miku? Did you understand that problem just now?"
Nakano Itsuki asked without lifting her head, looking at the test paper in front of her with a serious expression.
"Miku?"
Nakano Nino looked around. From the decorations, she could tell this was the Service Club.
There was Nakano Ichika dozing off, Nakano Yotsuba daydreaming, and Nakano Itsuki diligently studying.
Yuigahama Yui looked a bit stressed from tutoring the Nakano Quintuplets, and Shiina Mahiru was looking at herself strangely.
As for herself, Nakano Nino looked down.
Headphones, hair covering her eyes, and black pantyhose tightly wrapped around her thighs.
"I've switched into Miku's body?"
"Then what about Miku?"
"Oh no…"
—
At this moment, in Infinity Castle~
"Problem, problem… What, what is this place?
What's wrong with this body?
Nino, what are you doing?!"
Nakano Miku had already gone through the entire process of discovering the anomaly, becoming confused, starting to observe, and panicking.
The silk threads binding her body, coupled with this strange Infinity Castle—if Nakano Nino hadn't been standing right in front of her, she would have thought she'd been chosen by some god and was about to transmigrate to another world.
Kisaragi Rin: "…"
He realized his Soul was still in Nakano Nino's body, but the Nakano Nino in front of him had suddenly become someone else. Her confused and panicked expression clearly told Kisaragi that one of the Nakano Quintuplets was inside.
"Calm down first. Who are you?"
Kisaragi Rin asked, rubbing his temples.
"Miku."
Nakano Miku carefully observed herself, and it took her a while to realize she had become Kisaragi Rin.
"She's become Kisaragi Rin!!!"
This Miku once again fell into confusion.
Kisaragi Rin, on the other hand, sensed something was amiss.
Something's wrong, definitely wrong!
This was Infinity Castle. Even if the Stand's hit just now caused a Soul swap between Spider Mother and Nakano Nino, Kisaragi wouldn't be surprised.
But what was Nakano Miku, who should have been at the Service Club for tutoring, doing here?
In the Stand's settings, Destructive Power, Precision, Speed, Range, Durability, and Development Potential are extremely important. Now, this Stand's Range had directly passed through Infinity Castle and affected Nakano Miku at Soubu High!
Since it could do that, why didn't this Stand swap other people's Souls? Why specifically Nakano Miku?
Rather than believing this was his Stand Ability, Kisaragi Rin suddenly felt that some special quality of the Nakano Quintuplets had caused a change in his Stand!
Recalling the entire incident.
First, Nakano Nino accidentally touched the Stand and was scratched, leading to a Soul swap. Just now, Kisaragi Rin had merely casually swung his Stand at Nakano Nino, intending to experiment, and as a result, Nakano Nino swapped Souls with Nakano Miku, who was far away in the Service Club.
What does this mean?
It means blood is not a necessary condition for soul swapping.
And if mere contact could activate the Stand, Kisaragi Rin and Kato Megumi had also touched the Stand, so why didn't he trigger this Stand's Ability then?
Therefore, there must be something about the Nakano Quintuplets that he didn't know.
"So, what exactly is going on?"
Nakano Miku asked. Having suddenly arrived in Kisaragi Rin's body, she truly couldn't understand the situation.
"Master, what do you plan to do?"
Spider Mother also asked.
"Let's try again."
Kisaragi Rin comforted Nakano Miku, saying, "Once we're back to normal, I'll explain everything to you five."
Before Nakano Miku could react, the Stand in Kisaragi Rin's hand had already swung out again.
Then… "Huh, was it a dream?"
The soul in Kisaragi Rin's body had swapped again.
This time, it was Nakano Ichika.
Because she had always worked hard on her acting career by herself, keeping it a secret from her sisters, she was constantly sleepy, using all her classes and exams to catch up on sleep.
Suddenly appearing in Infinity Castle, her first reaction was that she had fallen asleep in the Service Club.
"I was just sleepy, and why does today's dream feel so real?"
"Alright, now it's certain that there's something about these quintuplets that I don't know."
Kisaragi Rin wondered, "Do you quintuplets have some kind of unbreakable bond? Is it too strange that every time I throw my Stand, you all jump into my body?"
Rubbing his brow in exasperation, Kisaragi Rin looked at his fair, tender fingers and felt even more annoyed. Finally, he said helplessly, "Let's go, Spider Mother."
"Understood."
Spider Mother raised her finger. Kisaragi Rin, in Nakano Nino's body, had no time to react, and in the next instant, he appeared at the door of the Service Club.
Before he even opened the door, Kisaragi Rin could already hear the commotion inside.
"How did I turn into Ichika again?"
This was Nakano Miku. Having transmigrated into Nakano Ichika's body again, she was utterly bewildered.
"Ichika, stop playing the Nakano Quintuplets game. Mahiru and Yui can't tell us apart."
This was Nakano Nino. She had already understood Nakano Miku's predicament and was trying to cover for Kisaragi.
Although Kisaragi Rin outside the door didn't know why she was trying to cover for him.
Pushing open the door of the Service Club, Kisaragi Rin, in Nakano Nino's identity, appeared before them and said to Shiina Mahiru and Yuigahama Yui, "Kirisu-sensei suddenly called us to discuss tutoring. Today's tutoring will end here for now. Thank you, Mahiru and Yui."
"Huh? Really?!"
Yuigahama Yui was overjoyed. She had been heartbroken by the tutoring efficiency of these quintuplets.
Before, when Kisaragi Rin said, "She, who hovers around the passing line, is more suitable to tutor the Nakano Quintuplets," Yuigahama Yui had thought there was some logic to it. Now, she only wanted to tell Kisaragi Rin, "You're kidding yourself."
Whenever she explained a bit of knowledge, these quintuplets would stare at her blankly, and then Yuigahama Yui would rack her brains trying to figure out how to explain it.
Then… she would realize that she herself didn't understand why that problem was solved that way.
If the tutoring continued, Yuigahama Yui didn't know if the Nakano Quintuplets' grades would improve, but she was sure her own grades would probably get better.
"Well then, you all get busy. Bye-bye."
Shiina Mahiru had already noticed something. She pulled Yuigahama Yui and walked out of the Service Club. Yuigahama Yui also waved goodbye.
"Bye-bye, see you tomorrow."
Nakano Itsuki: "Bye-bye."
"Nino, why did Kirisu-sensei call us?"
Nakano Yotsuba asked Kisaragi Rin. She hadn't noticed anything amiss yet.
Meanwhile, Nakano Miku had already stood up, puffing out her cheeks as she looked at her own body, wanting to demand who was currently occupying her body.
With Shiina Mahiru and Yuigahama Yui gone, Nakano Nino stopped pretending and directly laid out the truth to her sisters, saying, "I'm Nino. I'm currently in Miku's body, and Miku's soul has gone into Ichika's body."
"Is this some new game?"
Nakano Itsuki didn't believe her.
Because ever since they were little, they had enjoyed disguising themselves as each other.
Nakano Yotsuba: "According to you, then the person currently in Nakano Nino's body is Ichika?"
"No, the person in my body is Kisaragi."
Nakano Nino shook her head.
Nakano Miku: "…"
Nakano Yotsuba: "…How is that possible?"
Nakano Itsuki: "…Miku, how can you make such a strange joke?"
Only Nakano Miku believed her, because she was currently in Nakano Ichika's body. However, believing it wasn't necessarily a good thing for her.
"Kisaragi-san is in Nino's body. Kisaragi Rin might have seen Nino's entire body.
And since we're quintuplets, in the end, that means: Kisaragi saw my entire body?"
The formula running in Nakano Miku's brain made her cheeks grow redder and redder, turning completely flushed again.
