Kaguya-sama Wants Me to Surrender

"Yesterday... in the evening?"

Amamiya Natsuki quickly recalled.

Yesterday evening, apart from Miko come over to help with a back massage, I don't remember anything else happening.

So, when Miko stepped on my back, I felt happy?

...All right.

I admit it.

When Miko stepped on my back yesterday, it felt really good.

"Did Natsuki remember?"

Fujiwara Chika opened her eyes wide and looked over curiously.

"No." Amamiya Natsuki looked away. "I can't remember anything."

Shinomiya Kaguya's brows furrowed slightly.

That expression clearly says he's lying.

"Ah, I see." Fujiwara Chika blinked, and a look of realization quickly appeared on her pretty face. "So it's that kind of thing. No wonder Natsuki-san doesn't want to admit it."

Admit what?

What kind of thing are you talking about!

"I heard that boys are very happy and satisfied when they do that kind of thing." Fujiwara Chika clasped her hands in front of her chest. "It's a pity that Kaguya-chan and I can't help. We can only watch you play from the side."

Amamiya Natsuki was shocked.

You two actually wanted to watch boys do that kind of thing?! Are you perverts?

Fujiwara Chika continued, "Although I heard that playing that kind of game too much is bad for your health, for Shimizu-nee's sake, I have no choice but to trouble you."

"Wait." Amamiya Natsuki raised his hand to support his forehead. "Stop for a moment... What kind of game are you talking about?"

"Eh?" Fujiwara Chika tilted her head, her tone puzzled. "Of course it's a bishoujo game. What else could it be?"

Amamiya Natsuki: "…"

"Just now, when I came to school, I met a friend on the way. She complained to me that her younger brother, who's in junior high, likes to hide in his room and play bishoujo games by himself and doesn't want to go out." Fujiwara Chika said brightly, "She also said that boys love bishoujo games. It must be true, right?"

…I thought you were an experienced driver, but it turns out there are areas you haven't ventured into yet.

"I saw a skill in the mall yesterday..."

Amamiya Natsuki didn't want to talk and silently displayed the skill's attributes.

"You can become stronger just by lying down?"

Shinomiya Kaguya looked over curiously, and after seeing the name of the skill, she was speechless.

What's the difference between becoming stronger by lying down and getting something for nothing?

Why does such a strange skill even exist?

"What an interesting skill." Fujiwara Chika's eyes sparkled. "I want it too, so I can have Moeha and Pace step on me."

"That depends on when you can get it." Amamiya Natsuki answered casually.

If we can become stronger by lying down, maybe one day we can become stronger by breathing, or by basking in the sun... In short, anything is possible.

"You need someone to step on your back to get stronger." Fujiwara Chika asked curiously, "Did Natsuki ask Shimizu-nee to step on his back last night?"

"I didn't. Don't talk nonsense." Hearing that, Amamiya Natsuki quickly looked toward Miss Ice Sculpture and denied it. "It was Miko who helped me yesterday evening."

"Yotsuya Miko from the next class?"

"You know her?"

"Of course I do." Fujiwara Chika said casually. "I have a lot of friends in the next classroom."

…

Very good.

As expected of a social butterfly, your network has already expanded beyond the class to the entire grade.

"What's your relationship with Miko?" Fujiwara Chika asked curiously. "I saw you two walking home together the day before yesterday."

Amamiya Natsuki said:

"My family and Miko's family are neighbors."

"I see. No wonder you asked Miko to help you recharge." Fujiwara Chika nodded and looked at Mrs. Kaguya. "Shimizu-nee, are you sure you recharged your energy at that time?"

"I'm not sure." Mrs. Kaguya showed a hint of hesitation and said softly, "After all, I just woke up yesterday, so I'm a little confused. The only thing in my head is little Kaguya."

Amamiya Natsuki complained: "Please become Kaguya-san's guardian spirit as soon as possible."

"I'm sorry, but that doesn't seem possible."

"…"

"In that case, let's verify it now, shall we?"

Fujiwara Chika raised her hand and suggested excitedly, "Natsuki-san, lie down on the sofa. Kaguya-chan and I will step on your back. Let's see if it works."

Upon hearing that, Amamiya Natsuki lowered his head, and his eyes involuntarily fell on the legs of the two girls.

Fujiwara Chika was wearing a pair of white over-the-knee socks today, and her legs were well-proportioned and shapely.

Kaguya Shinomiya wore her usual black over-the-knee socks. This icy young lady seemed especially fond of black stockings. As far as I can remember, she's never worn another color.

Compared to Fujiwara, Shinomiya Kaguya's legs were obviously slimmer, appearing straighter and longer. A faint "absolute zone" gleamed between the hem of her skirt and the top of her stockings—dazzlingly white in the sunlight.

You could play with those for a year!

Anyone who says legs can't be played with for a year has clearly never seen a pair of truly beautiful ones!

"Forget it." Amamiya Natsuki shook his head and declined. "After school this afternoon, I'll go back and ask Miko for help."

"School's still a long way off. Shimizu-nee's condition is so bad—what if she can't hold on until then?"

Fujiwara Chika urged him, "Hurry up, hurry up, Natsuki-san. Lie down on the sofa."

If she can't hold on, she'll just fall into a deep sleep. You're just curious and want to step on someone to generate electricity!

Amamiya Natsuki looked at the Ice Sculpture Lady and asked, "Kaguya-san won't agree, right?"

"It's still early before class starts." Shinomiya Kaguya replied. "We can test the situation."

She couldn't put her worries to rest until she saw the result for herself.

Amamiya Natsuki sighed helplessly, agreed, took off his school uniform jacket, folded it neatly, and laid down on the sofa.

"I'll go first."

Fujiwara Chika was already bouncing with excitement.

Just as she was about to take off her shoes, her phone rang.

"It's my mom calling. I'll go answer it." Fujiwara Chika put her shoes back on and walked out. "Kaguya-chan, you go ahead."

…

The activity room quickly became quiet.

Amamiya Natsuki turned to look at the Ice Sculpture Lady. "How about we wait until Fujiwara comes back?"

"Unnecessary."

Shinomiya Kaguya made up her mind without hesitation.

It's just stepping on a back. If the neighbor can do it, if Chika can do it, then so can I.

Do what you say.

Miss Ice Sculpture had always been decisive and didn't waver once she made up her mind.

Shinomiya Kaguya quietly took a breath, removed her shoes, covered her skirt with one hand, and raised her right foot.

Amamiya Natsuki looked over from the side, and a pair of jade feet wrapped in black stockings appeared clearly in front of him. The curve from knee to toe was especially elegant.

Though Miss Ice Sculpture looked calm on the surface, her toes were curled nervously, and the tips of her ears seemed to be faintly flushed.

As the girl's toes landed gently on his back, Amamiya Natsuki felt a soft, warm pressure settle on him. His heartbeat quickened as he suddenly remembered a light novel he had read.

"About the Time I Became a Plaything of a Black Stockings Lady."

At this moment, that very plot had become reality.

Cold, tsundere, with hidden yandere attributes—Shinomiya Kaguya was the very definition of a black stockings lady!

Amamiya Natsuki was in a delicate state of mind.

If he had to sum it up in one sentence, it would probably be:

Become addicted, become stronger, and never be able to extricate yourself.
