Chapter 206 - 206: It's Very Dangerous

"Sigh, I wonder how Ai Kitagami is doing."

Sachi, carrying a pretty single-strap backpack, walked home alone, still shaken by what had just happened. Although she wasn't clear on what exactly had happened to Ai Kitagami, there was no doubt it was Kazuma's doing.

After all, she had experienced it firsthand.

In her mind, Kazuma was synonymous with demon. The shadow he cast over her was too large. That guy seemed omnipotent, capable of anything.

He even possessed terrifying supernatural powers. How could an ordinary person like her possibly resist him?

Even Ai Kitagami couldn't do it. So she genuinely hoped Ai Kitagami would keep a low profile and stop looking for trouble with him. That kind of dangerous existence wasn't something we could handle. What happened last time in the warehouse was just him pretending on purpose.

Who knew Ai Kitagami would still go find Kazuma, wanting to settle scores with him? Isn't that just walking into a trap? Seeing that her own persuasion was useless, Sachi knew Ai Kitagami was done for. Sighing, she walked along the roadside, her golden hair fluttering in the wind, her emotions tangled.

Although she really wanted to call and ask how she was now... "I'm really afraid of getting burned myself," the blonde gal clasped her hands together. "Ai Kitagami, I'm sorry. Since you won't listen to my advice, there's nothing I can do to help you."

Even after returning home, Sachi still didn't dare to message Ai Kitagami. She lay resting in her room, thinking she'd contact her in a couple of days, maybe try to persuade her again or simply go on a trip to clear her mind. Then, a LINE notification arrived.

It wasn't from Ai Kitagami, but from that 'boyfriend-kun.'

Sachi hadn't been in contact with her boyfriend these past few days, ignoring the messages he sent. But this time, boyfriend-kun was unusually persistent. Not only did he send her messages, but he also kept apologizing on LINE. His sincere attitude softened Sachi's heart quite a bit.

Thinking that Shu was also quite pitiful, and seeing the 'read' mark on LINE, the blonde gal finally replied to his message. Then, boyfriend-kun's call came through immediately, seeming very eager.

"Sachi, you're finally willing to answer my call," Shu's voice on the other end sounded excited. "Have you forgiven me?"

"Shu-senpai, actually, you were also a victim," the blonde gal said into the phone, unsure how to phrase it. Of course, she knew in her heart that Kazuma was too terrifying, and Shu was also a victim. But still, that incident had happened, and she felt her relationship with her boyfriend could hardly return to what it was before.

This time, seeing him apologize so humbly, Sachi felt a bit of pity, which is why she answered his call.

"It's good that you can understand me. It's already summer vacation. If you still ignored me, Sachi, I really…" Following that, the boy on the other end said a whole lot more, as if trying to vent all the grievances of these past few days. Finally, he spoke slowly, "Sachi, come out and play tonight. Let's go to karaoke together. Plus, I want to see you."

"...Fine."

Sachi was quite conflicted at the moment. Although she had accepted his apology, she felt it was already hard to go back to the way things were. She no longer had feelings for this senior, Shu. She actually wanted to break up, but listening to his apologies, she couldn't bring herself to say it.

"Forget it. I'll just tell him in person when we meet tonight."

After night fell, the blonde gal arrived at the agreed-upon meeting spot. Shu was already waiting there early. Seeing his girlfriend appear, he waved hurriedly, "Sachi—over here, over here."

"Did you get here a long time ago?"

"No, I just got here too," the boy said, looking a bit guilty and glancing away. "Let's go, I've already booked a room… Sachi, I don't care about what happened in the past. My feelings for you haven't changed. Let's start over now."

Start over?

The blonde girl was somewhat troubled. "Senior, about this matter…"

"Sachi, sorry, there's one more thing I lied to you about," Senior Shu spoke up again. "Actually, I didn't book a karaoke room. I booked a room at a love hotel."

The girl's eyes widened, and she stopped abruptly. She realized then that this road wasn't leading to the KTV, but rather into a deserted alleyway.

"A love hotel? Senior Shu, what is the meaning of this?!"

"Sachi, you always called me by my name before. Why are you calling me 'Senior' now?" The boy turned his head slowly. In the darkness, there was an inexplicably eerie and terrifying atmosphere, like watching a horror movie.

"Aren't we lovers? Since we're dating, going to a love hotel is fine, right?" he said with absolute seriousness. "Sachi, since we like each other, what's the harm in taking it a step further?"

"...No! That kind of thing is not okay!" The blonde gal immediately rejected his request. Even though what he said made sense—that it was normal for lovers to do such things—she just didn't want to.

"Why?!" Senior Shu suddenly became agitated. Perhaps sensing the change in his girlfriend's attitude, his emotions became intensely volatile. "Sachi! Why are you rejecting me?! You've already done it with that Kazuma, haven't you? You'd rather do it with him than with me? I'm your boyfriend!"

"That was forced! You know that! I couldn't resist at the time!" Sachi bristled.

"What 'forced' and 'couldn't resist'? I heard it all. Your moans were so wanton, so lewd; you were clearly willing! If he can make you feel good, make you feel satisfied, I can too! Sachi, I can do it too!"

Senior Shu's originally calm face had become twisted, and Sachi was, unsurprisingly, furious. "You—how can you say such things?!"

"You were the one who rejected me first. I just wanted to be intimate with you. We're lovers, isn't that allowed? Or are you saying, Sachi, that you've become infatuated with that guy?" Senior Shu's twisted face suddenly returned to normal, becoming calm and composed. "Sachi, it doesn't matter if you refuse me. I won't let you leave."

As his voice fell, several delinquents with multi-colored hair emerged from the dark alley and surrounded her.

These people had been waiting for a long time; they were the thugs he had specifically hired. They stared at the blonde gal with evil gazes. "Why waste so much breath? Just take her down already."

"Such a pretty chick. Shu, are you really willing to share her with us?"

"Haha, this is the first time I've gotten to play with such a pretty girl. Don't worry, the boys won't be too rough. We'll definitely make you unable to get enough!"

The malicious gazes, the evil, lecherous faces, and the crude, unbearable remarks made the blonde girl's face go pale. She looked at him in disbelief. "You said you wanted to apologize to me in person, and this is the result?"

This bastard! He actually hired thugs to toy with his own girlfriend. Why didn't I realize he was this disgusting before!

"It wasn't my fault to begin with, so why should I apologize? As for them, what does it matter? You've already been played with by someone else anyway," the senior, revealing his true colors, said with a cold, expressionless face. "Sachi, didn't you say that time was forced? Then this time will be the same. Since you can't resist, just relax and enjoy it."

"Can you scream as miserably as you did last time? I want to see it with my own eyes this time."

"You're disgusting! I would rather die than do that with scum and perverts like you! Get away from me, don't touch me—!!"

Slap!!

As a gal, Sachi naturally wouldn't just surrender. She was truly disgusted; she never imagined her boyfriend would be this kind of person. But just as she was about to resist, she was slapped, then kicked in the stomach. She let out a pained cry and fell down miserably, her hair disheveled, lying on the ground in a pathetic state.

"You guys…"

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes. The surrounding disgusting, dirty, and evil faces filled her with terror. The burning pain on her face, along with the pain in her stomach, caused her to curl up, trembling and feeling helpless inside.

I actually dated someone like this, someone who would share his own girlfriend with other men. If he was innocent last time, if it was Kazuma's doing, then what about this time? With a heart turned cold, Sachi couldn't help but sob softly.

She would rather do it with Kazuma than be defiled by these perverted scum. At the very least… Kazuma wouldn't give her this kind of disgusting feeling. "Don't… don't come over… don't touch me…"

Continually backing away, Sachi curled up in a corner, pitiful and helpless. Suddenly, Kazuma's figure appeared in her mind, and like finding a lifeline, she pulled out her phone.

"Kazuma… save me…"

"Quick! Stop her!" The senior, who had been calm just a moment ago, jumped up instantly upon seeing Sachi about to send a message. "Don't let her contact that monster!" Just like a mouse seeing a cat, Kazuma had left him with deep psychological trauma.

"What are you afraid of? There are so many of us, are you scared of one underclassman of yours?" While he said that, to avoid any complications, the thug kicked the phone out of Sachi's hand. She had only managed to send a punctuation mark; before she could type a single character, Sachi was kicked twice more.

The disheveled girl stared silently at her phone being kicked away. The hope in her heart extinguished bit by bit, and her eyes grew dull and lifeless.

"No… please, let me go…"

The girl could barely stand. Seeing those disgusting, scummy thugs surrounding her, wanting to tear off her clothes, just at the moment she sank into despair, a beam of light shone into the dark alleyway.

It was the light from the Anywhere Door. Inside the opened Anywhere Door was the cozy scene of an indoor hut. The light came from within; it wasn't dazzling, but rather soft. However, to Sachi, that light completely illuminated her heart, which had been shrouded in despair.

"I heard you guys aren't afraid of me?" Kazuma's smiling voice echoed around. "You all look quite arrogant."

"Where did this guy come from…"

"Him!!"

"Hey! That guy Shu just ran away?!"

Bang—

Following the sound of Kazuma's gunshot, and as the fleeing Senior Shu collapsed, wailing and clutching his thigh, the cursing instantly fell into dead silence. This group of scummy thugs looked in terror at the gun in Kazuma's hand, their knees giving way, and they knelt on the ground.

Kazuma raised the corner of his mouth and looked at the dazed Sachi, grinning. "I told you, going out alone late at night is very dangerous."
