145 Vol. 3 pt. 15 Patch 3.0: Apartment Life with Four Girls (1/2)

Between Serra smugly watching television with subtitles on, Cassandra and Aiko fighting over who gets to take a bath with Ryouta and leave hickeys on him next, and Alice looking through his kitchen and requiring assistance whenever she wants to look in a cabinet higher than she can reach, the rest of the night proves frantic and busy for Ryouta.

He is so used to there being no noises within his apartment, aside from the rustling of chips whenever eating and any anime that he'd watch, that all of this new noise is almost giving him culture shock!

But, it's nice.

Ryouta has always wanted a life like this despite never really trying too hard to obtain it. To be sharing an apartment with his girlfriend – girlfriends, making a loud mess of things, laughing and smiling together, and just being together in general, this is the kind of life that he has always dreamt about.

Though, given how similar his situation is to some anime that he has watched leads him to believe that he is actually in a coma and dreaming about all of this. How else would he be dating a deaf, munchkin pervert, a blonde tsundere with large breasts, a drama-loving princess in a wheelchair, and now his long-lost childhood friend is here and apparently has become a yandere? He even knows a trap! Well, an in-game trap.

All he can do is hope that his dream of living as an anime protagonist never ends.

Then he makes an important realization.

Anime protagonists, save for very few of them, never get laid. They have harems, but they never actually date anybody. They have girls put sexual moves on them, but they never actually have sex.

Ryouta has had sex in-game and just had that experience with Serra's thighs in the bathtub.

This brings him to the conclusion that he is either the protagonist of a hentai or visual novel, or this might just be real and not the deluded dream of a desperate virgin.

It's still probably the former, but he decides to go with the latter instead.

He will know that it is the former whenever magical girls start appearing or a demon lord gets summoned into his world.

”A demon lord waifu would be nice,” Ryouta thinks out loud.

”Haah? A what?” Cassandra asks.

”Oh, right, I'm already dating one.”

”What did you just call me, you bastard?”

Ryouta picks Serra up, sits down on the couch, and then sits her down on his lap to use her as a human shield against Cassandra.

Cassandra huffs since she isn't willing to go through Serra to get to him, but he really just gave Serra the opportunity to tease him some more as she starts wiggling her rear down against his crotch.

He lifts her off and accepts Cassandra's abuse instead.

Aiko is the first among them all to fall asleep. She was sitting on the floor with her back to the couch, and when she falls asleep, she slides to the side and ends up hitting her head against the floor.

They're all amazed that she doesn't wake up from the loud impact.

Aiko's slumber triggers the rest of them to rapidly grow tired. Serra is the first to get up off the couch and head into Ryouta's bedroom, plopping down on his bed and claiming her spot.

As for Ryouta, he is careful in picking up Aiko to lay her down on the couch and then covers her up with a spare blanket that he had hanging off the back of the couch.

”I'll see you two in the morning,” Ryouta tells Cassandra and Alice.

The two remaining girls look at each other and then at Ryouta.

A moment later and they're both holding onto his arms to take him into his bedroom. Cassandra does most of the work since she can use both of her arms, and Alice can only use one arm to grapple onto him while her other wheels her wheelchair.

”What – I told you I can sleep on the floor,” Ryouta tries telling them, but neither of the girls is buying it.

”We are not letting you sleep on the floor in your own home, my hero,” Alice explains.
