After sharing a sweet breakfast with Sakurajima Mai, and seeing her off as she left for her agency, Ryuya finally used teleportation to return home.
The moment he arrived, he saw two beautiful girls lying on his bed—Rias Gremory and Asia Argento.
…Why were they in his bed again?
Rias he could understand. She frequently came over for midnight attacks anyway.
But Asia—when did she learn such bad habits?
Ryuya shook his head lightly. Seeing the two completely unclothed beauties, he stepped forward and gently pulled the blanket back over them.
But Rias still woke up. She slowly opened her eyes, looked at Ryuya standing close, and let out a displeased little hum:
"Why didn't you come back last night?"
"I went to accompany my girlfriend."
Ryuya smiled faintly as he brushed aside the flame-red hair Rias had accidentally gotten into her mouth.
His blunt honesty made Rias visibly annoyed.
"I was careless… Keep this up and my adorable servant will be stolen away completely by that human girl."
She stared at him and commanded, "Next time you go over there, bring me with you. Understood?"
Ryuya couldn't help laughing.
"If you go, Asia will want to go too. Four people sharing a bed is a bit much."
"You're my servant. You should be prioritizing your master's needs!"
Rias sat up abruptly—instantly causing the blanket he'd just tucked to slide down and reveal her breathtaking body once more to Ryuya's sight.
But Ryuya only felt a headache coming on as he sighed softly.
"Before you rescued me, didn't you sleep perfectly fine by yourself?"
"Hehe, well, that's because you're too comfortable to hold. Once I got used to sleeping while breathing in your scent, I can't fall asleep without it anymore."
Rias swept aside her fiery long hair and gave him a charming smile.
"What? Don't tell me you don't like my body?"
"I like it."
"Then what are you hesitating for? I only spoil you like this, you know."
Rias giggled softly.
"Yeah, I'm deeply honored."
Ryuya leaned down and kissed her deeply.
Asia, who had woken up earlier, finally couldn't take it anymore and whined pitifully,
"Ryuya is too biased… you're always only kissing President Rias…"
Left with no choice, Ryuya grabbed Asia as well and kissed her thoroughly until the little nun's head was spinning and she looked completely satisfied.
Afterward, he changed clothes and began his usual morning training.
Ryuya's schedule was always fixed—training was a daily, unbreakable ritual.
Sometimes Rias and Asia trained with him, though mostly in supportive roles.
Wearing tight sportswear, the two beautiful girls were enough eye candy to make morning exercise feel like a blessing.
And during breaks… they'd sometimes lean in together for a few sweet pecks on the lips.
"What plans today?" Rias asked, sitting on Ryuya's back to add weight while he did push-ups.
"I'm going to visit my new clients—those quintuplets I contracted with. Need to tutor them and fulfill the request."
Ryuya did perfect push-up after push-up. Even with Rias adding magical weight, he didn't falter at all. His discipline impressed even her.
"Alright then. Do your best."
"I will."
After finishing his training and taking a quick shower, Ryuya checked the time—right at 8:00 AM.
He grabbed the teaching materials he'd prepared yesterday. After saying goodbye to the two girls, a teleportation magic circle lit beneath his feet.
Space twisted—then Ryuya appeared in the home of the Nakano quintuplets.
The living room was empty. Not a single person.
But from upstairs, he could sense several familiar presences…
Ryuya immediately understood.
So they're still not up yet…
It was already 8 AM.
Ryuya was used to waking up early; he liked sleeping in, sure, but his willpower always forced him awake on time—he didn't even need an alarm clock.
Just as he was about to head upstairs and knock, a soft click sounded from the second floor—one of the bedroom doors opened.
A girl in cute pajamas stepped out, and her eyes widened when she saw Ryuya standing in the living room below.
"Eh? Ryuya? Why are you here?"
Ryuya glanced up at her, his eyes scanning her appearance…
Short hair?
Nope.
Black ribbon headband?
Nope.
Headphones?
Nope.
Butterfly ribbon accessory?
Nope.
Cute hair clip?
Nope…
Ryuya instantly became face-blind.
The only thing he could confirm was that she definitely wasn't Ichika…
Which meant the real problem was—
Which one was she?
"Uh… Itsuki?"
He called cautiously, tone full of uncertainty.
The girl puffed up her cheeks.
"Eh? I'm Yotsuba!"
"…My bad. Yotsuba, good morning. I just arrived myself."
He carefully observed her up and down, trying to memorize something about her without her usual iconic hair accessories.
Later facts would prove—
Ryuya was thinking way too much…
"Yotsuba, who's—here this early…?"
With that, one by one, the other doors opened.
Three more girls stepped out, all wearing differently colored camisole-style nightgowns, all with their hair down—
And all looking exactly identical to Yotsuba.
Ryuya scanned each face…
No differences.
Zero.
Identical.
And because all five had signed contracts with him, he could sense all of them equally…
Damn it. Was his face-recognition really this hopeless?
Ryuya exhaled slowly.
"Good morning, Nino, Miku, and Itsuki."
The three pajama-clad girls froze—
Then all three blushed hard and instinctively covered their chests.
Well, yeah… their nightgowns were a bit revealing.
"What are you doing here, you pervert!?"
Ah, that one was definitely Nino.
"…Lewd wolf."
A quiet mutter.
Yep, that was Miku.
"Geez, I'm not even dressed yet…"
…And that would be the only normal one among the sisters: Itsuki.
Listening to them one by one, Ryuya matched their voices and mannerisms to tell them apart.
What was this—
A quintuplet identification game?
He had a feeling situations like this would continue happening from now on…
The three girls hurried back into their rooms with loud bang bang bang sounds as they shut their doors to change.
Only Yotsuba remained, sighing helplessly as she watched Ryuya come upstairs.
"Is Ichika not awake yet?"
Ryuya asked quietly, teaching materials in hand.
"Oh, she's in the room at the very end. Let's go call her."
Yotsuba started walking toward Ichika's door—
Then suddenly paused, turned around, and looked at Ryuya with a slightly awkward expression.
"Um… when you go in… just don't be too surprised, okay…?"
Ryuya tilted his head in confusion but nodded.
"Alright."
Yotsuba reached out and opened Nakano Ichika's bedroom door…
