"Phew... Phew... Sorry, little Rin, that guy Yuu is a bit strong..."
Breathing heavily, Kohei Imamura, whose clothes were slightly torn, felt extremely guilty for failing to dismember Miyazawa Yuu and help Rin vent.
It was the first request from the cute little sister who relied on him, and he couldn't fulfill it. As an older brother, he truly was a failure!
"You're not bad either, Kohei. Is the chainsaw out of fuel already? Prepare to accept defeat!"
Gripping Iori's legs tightly, Miyazawa Yuu took a stance as if using a great sword, attempting to deliver a fatal blow!
However, disappointingly, the great sword was utterly useless. At this decisive final moment, Iori, perhaps past his rigor mortis, instantly went limp.
"Ah..."
His soul flew out of his mouth. In fact, Iori didn't have even a single small injury on him; the out-of-body experience was entirely from being scared.
"Tch, is it down to hand-to-hand combat now?"
"Wait a minute, both of you!"
"Didn't we say a long time ago! Conflicts in the Pab Club must be resolved with a game!"
"That's right!"
Hearing the senpai voice, Iori Kitahara instantly slurped all his soul back into his mouth like ramen, using his last bit of strength to straighten his body and roar: "Then why didn't you stop them sooner, I almost lost half my life!"
"Well~ the fighting scene was indeed spectacular!"
Awkwardly scratching the back of his head, as a muscular man, Shinji Tokita truly found it difficult to resist the temptation of a genuine man's weapon competition showdown.
Ryujiro Kotobuki nodded in strong agreement, then added helplessly: "However, the goal of the fight between the two sides was too shallow; it lacked the guts for revenge and gratification!"
"Precisely!"
"Damn it..."
Finally getting free with Nanaka-san's help, Iori Kitahara clenched his fists, not daring to flare up at the unscrupulous senpais. He could only turn and remind his own little sister.
"Alright, you've seen the situation now. Besides Onii-chan, there are two other perverts here, so it's very unsafe. Hurry home!"
"Is that so?"
Thinking little Rin's method of diverting trouble by attempting murder was excellent, Shiori Kitahara smiled brightly. Not only did she not leave, but she directly hugged Iori's arm.
"Then I'll just stay by Onii-chan's side and never let go~"
"Wait! You being like that is the most dangerous thing, Shiori-chan!!"
He could already feel Kohei's murderous gaze. Iori Kitahara racked his brains, unable to figure out why his little sister had become so clingy!
"Ah~ little Shiori also likes her brother. Just like little Rin, I'm so envious~"
Pouting and looking up in dissatisfaction, Aina Yoshiwara sighed with loss: "Being relied upon by a little sister or brother, the emotional value alone must be through the roof, right?"
"Yeah!"
Instantly discovering the blind spot, Kohei Imamura instantly moved in front of Aina, breathing heavily and asking terrifyingly: "So, little Rin also likes that guy Yuu?"
"She should, but Yuu said Rin isn't an oni-kon!"
"I see, Yuu..."
"Absolutely not!"
Already guessing what that guy was thinking, Miyazawa Yuu raised his hand without hesitation to state his position!
But even so, Kohei Imamura still clung to his neck relentlessly, saying something in a tone that made Yuu want to punch him.
"Eh~ Is that so? But a guy like Yuu probably has absolutely no idea what his cute little sister is thinking, right?"
"That may be true, but why are you being so arrogant!"
Forcefully peeling Kohei's handsome face off himself, Miyazawa Yuu asked Rin with a headache: "Rin-chan, you're not an oni-kon, right?"
"Ah? Onii-chan... something, something..."
Startled by such a direct question, Miyazawa Rin trembled all over, then slowly turned her head away, saying softly and uncertainly: "I don't think so... probably?"
"..."
Even a blind person could see a clue. What's with this perfectly timed shyness and the anticipation of being found out? Isn't that too much shojo flavor!
Covering her mouth, Aina Yoshiwara's eyes were filled with hearts and she was about to ascend to heaven. She'd take a dozen cute little sisters like this!
However, just when she thought Yuu would finally see his sister's true feelings, the latter looked completely convinced and affirmed: "See? She won't even admit it herself!"
"You're an idiot! Isn't that already obvious!"
"You guy, you've been skipping your mental health classes, haven't you! Go back and retake the course!"
"Hold on a second..."
Stopping the about-to-erupt Aina and the senpais, a spark flashed in Kohei Imamura's eyes—"Let's solve the problem with a game! An Oni-kon game! Little Shiori will participate too!"
"Huh?"
Staring blankly at the eager idiots, Miyazawa Yuu immediately raised his hand in protest: "Doesn't this kind of game require the consent of the people involved..."
"Swoosh—!"
Before he could finish his sentence, two muscular figures instantly moved around him. Although his eyes reacted, his body was a step too slow due to overexertion.
The next second, a chair with a backrest was set up, and ropes were wound dozens of times around the prisoner.
Smiling, Chisa Kotegawa tore off the tape and mercilessly sealed Miyazawa Yuu's mouth while he was frantically shaking his head.
"Yosh, let's play! There are only two questions, and the answers are not limited to one!"
"If little Rin answers the questions nicely, Yuu will make pork cutlets for dinner. Little Shiori, the same for you!"
"Y-yes?"
Seated opposite their respective older brothers, surrounded like princesses, Miyazawa Rin and Shiori Kitahara quietly exchanged glances. Both saw willingness in the other's eyes.
The former couldn't quite say why she was excited; perhaps she simply craved affirmation of her oni-kon tendencies. The latter just wanted to appear overly oni-kon to force Iori to return home and inherit the family business!
"First question! If these two guys fall into the water at the same time, what would you do?"
"Save my brother!"
"Save Iori Onii-chan?"
The answer was unexpected. Almost simultaneously, the light in Miyazawa Yuu's eyes vanished—Rin would actually rather save Iori than him. She is completely unqualified as a little sister!
"Eh? Why does little Rin want to save Iori?"
Chisa Kotegawa frowned in confusion. She completely understood why little Shiori would save Iori, but why would little Rin, who was meeting him for the first time, want to save Iori?
"Because my brother is absolutely capable of getting out of the water himself!"
Without hesitation, Miyazawa Rin instantly transformed into her quiet loli persona once the commotion died down. Her voice became firm and cool, as if stating an established fact.
"Instead of rescuing the strong, it's better to rescue the weak to maximize benefit!"
"I see..."
What a novel perspective. Should they say it's to be expected from a capitalist's daughter? The first thing she thought of was maximizing profit!
Imagining Rin inheriting the company and ruling the Tokyo business world with her super quiet face, everyone present frantically shook their heads to dispel such a cruel thought—
The employment situation in Japan is already difficult enough; they definitely don't need some sort of predatory demon lord appearing!
"Now for the second question..."
Kohei Imamura glanced at little Rin with an impressed look. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he held up a photo in Iori's wails, which was clearly of the drinking party a few days ago!
"Come on, both little sisters, please evaluate your Onii-chans!"
"Ugh..."
Having already watched the live stream, Shiori Kitahara was not unfamiliar with the scene in front of her. In fact, she had a higher-resolution screen recording saved on her computer.
But how should she act out the oni-kon feeling? This was a difficult subject, as it was genuinely hard to find any commendable points in the photo...
"My brother is very handsome, and his drinking posture is also quite bold? Although he is a student, relaxation is necessary!"
Forcing a smile, she apologized internally, but this was the highest praise Shiori Kitahara could offer!
"My brother has a high tolerance for alcohol. He won't get drunk no matter what. It's a very practical life skill that can be used for business socializing and prevents him from being tricked into revealing secrets!"
"No! She can praise him from this angle too?!"
Completely shocked, Aina Yoshiwara opened her mouth wide and pointed at little Rin with teary eyes: "Kohei, this is definitely an oni-kon..."
"Mhm, it's clear little Shiori is an oni-kon, but little Rin..."
Staring at the girl in front of him for a long time, Kohei Imamura finally spat out the answer in his heart, though it might not have met everyone's expectations—"She is not!"
"What! But..."
"Don't speak so much, Aina! In short, I'll bet my ten years of little-sister Galgame experience that this is the truth!"
"Don't use Galgame criteria to judge the real world!"
"..."
Looking at the chaotic scene in front of her, Miyazawa Rin tilted her head, her eyes completely unfocused and blank. After a while, a single word popped out of her mouth—"Eh?"
