Why hasn't the System finished upgrading after almost a week?! One week!
Does he know what she's been through this week!? Watching videos sent by her younger sister, watching other girls party with her boyfriend! And Suzu is absolutely doing this on purpose—the signal is bad when she tries to message or voice call, but the signal is fine when she sends videos, right?!
Kaede tried to contact everyone these past few days, but not a single person was reachable. Suzu and the others must have talked to them. Although Kaede understood that Suzu was trying to enable the Cuckold Play, Kaede would have definitely approved before because it would have earned a lot of Training Points.
But now... why did the System have to upgrade at this exact moment?! Earning Training Points by doing missions was secondary; the important thing was not knowing if the System Mall had also been disabled.
Kaede hasn't slept well these past few days. Every time she falls asleep, she dreams of them having shotgun weddings. Every time her phone rings, she feels inexplicably panicked, afraid that someone is calling her to say they're pregnant with Rin Ito's child.
Damn it... why is writing a script and making a game taking so long?! That Utaha Kasumigaoka must be deliberately writing slowly just to stay longer!
Although Kaede no longer had the Camera System, she knew what kind of play was happening on the island from the videos Suzu sent every day.
For example, that Utaha Kasumigaoka. At first, she pretended to be the coldest one, aloof from everyone, but now she uses those black-stockinged legs to seduce him every day, reaching out from under the table while he's drawing. She pretends to be the best, but before her stockings were even ripped, just his hand rubbing her through the silk was enough to make her soaking wet.
And Hayasaka... she was willing to put her mouth on his even after her home base was already conquered! Are she and her mother on such good terms with Kaguya? Good enough to do this for her?
However... Heh heh heh.
The only thing that made Kaede happy these past few days was that Kaguya had been successfully "polluted" by her.
After this period of contamination... no, instruction, Kaguya, who didn't even know how babies were made, now knew a lot about NTR (Netorare/Cuckoldry). For example, cuckolding others (NTL) and being cuckolded (NTR) are two different categories. Then there's actively helping as an accomplice (NTRS), and so on...
However, Kaguya hadn't awakened any particular fetish. For her, this knowledge was no different from what she learned at school. It was just a tool to be utilized.
Today, Kaede was playing with Kaguya as usual, but the content of their time together had changed from taking pictures to reading Hentai. Kaede naturally became Kaguya's "friend."
But... a friend?
Having experienced betrayal, Kaguya wouldn't easily consider someone a friend. Although Kaguya didn't truly consider Kaede a friend, after spending so many days together, Kaguya felt Kaede was quite nice.
What a pity... the person she likes likes Hayasaka.
Perfect.
"You like Rin Ito, right?" Kaguya looked up at Kaede after finishing a Hentai Kaede had recommended.
"Yes... Why are you suddenly asking me this, Kaguya?"
"Last time, when you saw him and me together, you were jealous," Kaguya said plainly. "But he doesn't like me; he likes Hayasaka."
"Hayasaka...?" Kaede pretended to have forgotten who Hayasaka was. After all, she had only met Hayasaka a few times at joint school events and exchanged a few words. Kaguya had mentioned before that she was betrayed by a friend, but she never said who that friend was.
"Yes, Hayasaka used to be my maid. The friend I told you who betrayed me was Hayasaka," Kaguya said, expressionless. "Although I don't know how he and Hayasaka met, he likes Hayasaka."
"Ah...?" Kaede feigned shock and disappointment, perfectly acting the part of a girl who had just learned her crush had a sweetheart.
"You advised me not to forgive Hayasaka so easily before."
"Yes, that's right. Make her experience the feeling of betrayal herself. If she can forgive you, then you forgive her... It's fair. Why are you bringing this up now?" Kaede asked subtly.
"He likes Hayasaka. You help me make him fall in love with me."
"Huh?" Kaede's lips twitched. What is this Ojou-sama thinking? Although she had guided Kaguya to use Cuckoldry on Hayasaka as "revenge," Kaguya knew she liked Rin Ito but still asked her to help her win him over? She doesn't know about my fetish, so why would she ask me to do this?
...No, I don't have that fetish; it's only because of the System!
"Hoshizuki-san, please rest assured. I don't like him. This is just a way to get revenge on Hayasaka. After getting revenge on Hayasaka, I'll ruthlessly dump him. You can swoop in then."
"Then why don't I just go take him back myself?"
"Hoshizuki-san, you're so naive. If you could do that, you wouldn't be in your current state. So... you help me, and I'll help you."
Cuckoldry is a tool... If it's a tool, it must be used. Although Kaguya didn't truly hate Ai Hayasaka for betraying her, if she didn't administer any punishment, Kaguya would feel very displeased. After learning about the tool of Cuckoldry, under Kaede's guidance, Kaguya decided to cuckold Hayasaka to make her experience the feeling of betrayal.
However...
Although Kaguya told Kaede that Rin Ito liked Hayasaka, the reality was... Hayasaka must only be using him as a tool that could be utilized.
Like him? Impossible. Kaguya was absolutely certain.
Although Hayasaka sometimes went out with classmates, she spent most of her time by Kaguya's side. How would she have had a chance to get to know Rin Ito? There was no time to interact, let alone fall in love. Hayasaka must be using him as a tool.
Although Hayasaka certainly didn't like him, seeing Rin Ito, who always liked her, shift his affection, she would definitely experience a similar feeling of betrayal as Kaguya did before.
Besides, this would also help Hoshizuki-san and repay her for the favor of taking her out to play all these days.
And Rin Ito. He helped her, and she indeed owed him a favor, which she also needed to repay. Thinking this, Kaguya gradually formed a four-way-win plan.
Make Hayasaka experience the feeling of betrayal and bring her back to her side. That's the first win.
Help Hayasaka get rid of a person she doesn't like. That's the second win.
Help Hoshizuki-san get together with the person she likes. That's the third win.
Prevent Rin Ito from being exploited by Hayasaka. That's the fourth win.
No one loses; everyone is a winner! Although Kaguya's face was expressionless, the plan was already set in her mind.
Hmph... All I have to do now is execute the plan!
And executing the plan is simple. I only need to do one thing! That is... make him fall in love with me!
