Chapter 269: Just an Illusion

Himekoji went inside, and the door closed behind him thanks to the System’s rare kindness.

Yukinoshita froze for a second. Then she heard Yuigahama’s startled shriek from inside the bathroom.

What was happening?

A blind guy and a foolish girl, alone together in that small bathroom…

No! Absolutely not!

Finally snapping back to her senses, Yukinoshita knew she had to act quickly.

She rushed forward, grabbed the door handle, and tried to pull it open.

But the door was securely locked.

……

“Help… save me…”

Would he die smothered by them (the huge chest) instead of getting blown up by a bomb?

The first would be a hero’s death, the second was definitely a pervert’s!

Severely starved for air…

His whole body felt weak from the “Clothing Explosion” aftermath, utterly drained.

His two limp arms just couldn’t push away Yuigahama and her heavy, freakishly large chest.

Himekoji could only call for help.

[Idiot! Why do you think I applied the ‘Multi-Size Technique’ to you?]

Seriously? Wasn’t making things bigger just for your own twisted fun?

[Better to save yourself than count on others!]

The System seemed completely content to watch the show.

After hanging around it for so long, Himekoji understood this terrible System’s nature. If it said hands-off, expecting anything more was pointless.

So… self-reliance it was!

But what to do?

In the face of “life or death,” his brain worked overtime.

Wait, he had an idea!

Maybe squeezed by desperation, Himekoji thought of a countermeasure at the last second.

Push Yuigahama away! Just needed to push her away!

He had no strength left in his body… except one spot!

That spot wasn’t just strong right now…

It felt like it held primordial strength!

Yes, all you perverted readers must have guessed—

That spot, was Himekoji Jr., boosted by the “Multi-Size Technique”!

Use Himekoji Jr. to push Yuigahama away!

Fight size with size! A big opponent needs an equally big weapon!

Then you’re it!

Deploy the “Colossus” against the “Colossal”!

No time to hesitate.

He focused his energy, tensed his waist and belly.

Reality gave him no room for doubt.

“Get up there!!!!” Himekoji screamed in his mind, gritting his teeth.

[Ding!]

[System: Pleasure sensation enhanced!]

For once, Himekoji didn’t reject or resist the System’s unasked-for boost.

Because to survive… he needed to be bigger, thicker, harder, stronger!

Yes! One big push!

His drill could break through the heavens!!!

A soft rip sounded.

Before breaking the heavens, Himekoji Jr. at least managed to break through a pair of denim jeans.

It pierced through…

Tobe’s jeans.

……

“Huh? Huh? HUH?”

Blindfolded Yuigahama felt herself being lifted upwards.

“Wh-what’s happening?!”

Startled, she instinctively waved her arms and legs.

Her center of gravity shifted up, then— down she went, headlong towards the floor.

Thankfully, it was a soft landing. Her unnaturally large chest♂ cushioned the fall like perfect airbags.

And, a lucky break: just as Yuigahama came crashing down, Himekoji summoned the last bits of his strength to roll aside, barely escaping the “Colossal’s” impact zone.

Saved.

Himekoji felt utterly drained, yet relieved.

While catching his breath— this not tiger-mouth, but chest-escapee— started gasping greedily for air in the bathroom.

The air felt damp, had a milky scent, thick yet clean.

Himekoji probably never realized how incredible it felt to breathe freely!

[Ding!]

[System Reminder!]

[The quest is still underway!]

“I know!”

His moment of peace was ruined instantly by the System.

Himekoji had to drag himself up, reluctant.

Just then, the System helpfully projected an image into his mind.

The picture looked like this—

Yuigahama sprawled on the ground…

No, considering the situation now, saying Yuigahama splayed atop two “Colossals” seemed more accurate.

Because the size was way too big, Yuigahama lying face-down couldn’t even touch the ground with her hands.

Wanting to get up, she had to rely on her bare feet kicking the floor desperately. Yet despite all her effort, she remained just a little shy of flipping over.

How to describe it?

Like a turtle flipped onto its back.

The difference was, turtles lie flat on their shells with legs in the air.

While Yuigahama faced skyward, lifted sky-high by her giant breasts with limbs dangling uselessly.

And both shared the same struggle – no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t right themselves.

Ridiculous and cute, but also kind of heartbreaking…

Himekoji reached out to help Yuigahama up.

But the System instantly stopped him with a shout:

[Stop!]

“Huh?”

[Now’s your chance! Eat her!]

“Eat her? Are you kidding me?!”

[Then eat the clothes she just took off!]

Eat this, you idiot!

He cursed the System inwardly but acted without hesitation.

Compared to eating Yuigahama, eating clothes was definitely preferable.

Besides, though the task said “eat”, collecting aromas was the real goal. Sniffing would suffice.

Just one whiff of the freshly worn underwear!

In this field, Himekoji was an old hand!

[The discarded underwear is less than half a meter behind your left shoulder.]

“Got it.”

Practice makes perfect – snatching underwear was as easy as breathing for Himekoji.

With one fluid grab, he secured his prize swiftly and cleanly.

[Yukinoshita will arrive in ten seconds!]

[Retreat immediately!]

Himekoji froze mid-reach, hand still outstretched toward Yuigahama.

Sorry, Yuigahama.

Time’s up. Looks like I can’t help you anymore. Good luck!

The Multi-Size Technique’s effect should wear off soon anyway.

After this silent apology, Himekoji spun around and bolted.

THUD!

And predictably—

The half-blind boy slammed face-first into the bathroom door.

Luckily, the System had cancelled his Shota Size Technique just in time. Otherwise, something else might’ve hit that door first.

…

Yukinoshita, pulling hard from outside, stumbled back when the door suddenly swung inward.

She staggered several steps before regaining balance.

Then she looked up.

There stood Himekoji – pants torn to shreds, shamelessly flaunting his ugly thing, clutching Yuigahama’s freshly removed underwear as he burst from the bathroom.

At that second, Yukinoshita’s mind went blank.

So—

This guy really was… an absolute pervert through and through.

The realization hit instantly:

Hero. Handsome. Gentle. And…

Almost fell for him.

All illusions.

Nothing but illusions.
