In the Apocalypse World Becoming a Naruto Card God

However, as I looked into Ms. Lina's eyes, I saw something unexpected... trust. Ms. Lina trusted me. She wanted me to show all the effort I had put in. Even so, fear still haunted me.

But, as I feared, I failed. I lost. The pain of that defeat not only shattered my body but also broke my heart. As my body was thrown far away and my consciousness began to fade, a figure appeared at the edge of my vision... Haruto Sato.

There he stood, closer than I had ever imagined. And for the first time, I saw Haruto in a different light. Maybe Haruto wasn't as bad as I always thought. Perhaps, he was more than just the bad rumors surrounding him.

Days passed, and when the semester exams arrived, we were paired together, perhaps because no one else wanted to partner with us. We had to survive together.

There, I saw another side of Haruto... someone full of knowledge, someone different from the image of the troublemaker that always clung to him. Haruto began to teach me many things, more than I ever expected.

Then, we encountered a powerful Horror. Haruto asked me to create something. I felt scared, afraid of failing again. But this time, something was different. I didn't want to disappoint Haruto, not after everything we had been through together.

With all my strength, I tried, and... I succeeded. The happiness I felt was not just because of my success, but also because, for the first time, I felt useful to someone I considered a friend.

That night, I felt the need to thank Haruto. We talked under the night sky, and I felt something different within me. The words of thanks slipped from my lips, and before I realized it, I found myself leaning closer to Haruto.

Without thinking, my lips touched Haruto's. Did I just kiss Haruto? What was I thinking? What had I done? However, even though my heart raced with anxiety, something changed within me... something I could no longer deny.

Even so... Ahh! This is so embarrassing! Without a second thought, I immediately ran away from Haruto. Once I reached a comfortable place, I lay down, covering my face with my hands. My face was hot, and my cheeks flushed.

I didn't understand why my breath felt heavy, why my heart was beating so fast. Was... was this real? Was I... falling in love with Haruto?

No! No way! I can't fall in love with Haruto... or can I? Lilyana, what are you thinking?! You're just an ordinary woman, nothing special. You don't even deserve to be by Haruto's side!

Yet, there was a small part of my heart that whispered softly, refusing to forget what had happened last night. Even though I hoped Haruto would forget everything, there was something within me that hoped the opposite.

The next morning, I woke up in shock. Haruto woke us all up with an unusual enthusiasm. He organized physical training for us... doing push-ups together, with the condition that no one could fall or lower their body first. If anyone failed, we had to start over.

This training was very difficult for me, but I had worked hard. I had trained my body, I had prepared myself as best as I could. With all the effort I had put in, I was confident I could endure.

However, as time passed, exhaustion began to set in. My muscles started to tremble, my hands felt sore, my body seemed to grow heavier, and my head began to spin. Even so, I refused to give up. I endured all this pain, pushing myself beyond my limits.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" asks a girl next to Reiji.

"What? Who are you? No, who are all of you?" Reiji instead questions back, staring in wonder.

"What do you mean? Aren't we all Uzumaki?" the girl replies with a puzzled expression.

"... Oh damn," Reiji mutters quietly.]
