<Nocturnal Harmonia>

[Bloodedge]

According to Miko, he didn't have to do anything more than make a decision. He also had something more that could be classified as a welcome present, beyond that magical smartphone. As for the phone itself, Miko described its purpose and specifics... and, most importantly to Jun, its hidden benefits. Jun raised a brow when he heard others couldn't hold objects like that phone. Beyond that, the other 'welcome present' as he'd consider it was appearing right in front of his face...

[BOND THRESHOLD REACHED]

You have reached 50% Intimacy with Miko.

Designation Confirmed: Shadow Concubine

New Access Granted:
• Concubine Inventory Access
• Concubine Key (Fully Activated)

System Message:
You are now Miko's Shadow Concubine.

Jun read that initial screen at the same time his Intimacy rating climbed to a solid 57% total. This was all becoming more interesting by the moment. "Inventory, huh?" he wondered, opening the menu and seeing the key within. He even took a moment to place his new phone there, and tested the storage of other things by depositing a pen from his desk directly into the screen. "Interesting. There's quite a bit left to unravel about you now, isn't there?" he expressed, seeming more than curious overall.

All the while, Yugi was regaining his bearings after a startlingly satisfying session with a human. Of course, there wasn't much choice as he scanned a new bedroom and saw only five grown men surrounding a now-broken bed. Based on the look and attitude of those men, they were yakuza. Strangely, the apparent leader seemed the most bothered by what was happening. Yugi thought he could sense the anxiety coming from that one ─ but maybe he was mistaken? "Goddamnit, don't make me do this. I don't need a habit of fighting after I fuck..." he complained while lifting Chizuru to finally separate their lower halves. Just then however, Yugi became privy to one fact: this wasn't a total sausage fest. The moment some reasonably-strong, tanned Hunter woman with natural feline ears and a tail appeared, Yugi's attitude shifted. "But I'm always ready to fuck after I fuck!" he blurted out. Even though the idea of fighting had been discarded, Yugi still rose and shamelessly branded his spunk-stained erection. His attention may have shifted to something else, but that yakuza boss was still nearly prepared for a squabble. "I ain't hearing any answers to my question. Somebody better get yappin'!"

[Apollymi]

Miko and Jun were having their quiet bonding moment as he waited for his next appointment. He took his smarkphone and tested the limits of his Inventory after reading his message from the System. Miko smirked seemingly pleased to see his tests, and technically watching them as well from her own side. "I thought you had a pretty firm understanding of me to start with..." Miko admitted. "That was a good test. I'll say that the size of the objects doesn't seem to matter... I have a brand new Lamborghini in my Inventory right now," Miko confirmed. She also went about moving a box of System Condoms into his Inventory as well, she'd made a decision about them and wouldn't be going back on it anytime soon. "I can answer any of your questions, explain the functionality of some things... and give you any pressing information you'd like about the last couple of days. That earlier thing was mostly just an overview♪~" Miko gave that answer with a mostly playful moment. Miko was still casually sitting at the edge of the desk, magically hidden from view.

At the same time Yugi was coming back to his senses while Chizuru was still gently convulsing even as she was removed from his cock. It would take her a while yet to get back together. Though she could still hear and see. As her vision came together she heard a voice which was familiar to her, but she was working on something. At the same time a different woman had showed up, and while the lad took in her visage she did the same, not even being remotely shy about checking out his package untiler brain stopped processing it for a second. "It's fucking huge!?~ You can't offer to fuck someone with that... it's a weapon of mass destruction. Ya'll should calm down most of you wouldn't last a couple of seconds and obviously he's got the power!~" the cat woman said her gaze, shifting up towards that hole in the ceiling. "So weird question can I get a picture? The girls aren't gonna believe me without evidence," claimed the cat woman whose voice was just a little raspy. Meanwhile, the obviously annoyed Yakuza was wanting someone to talk, and Chizuru looked up her brows coming together... "Ryo, that you?!~ Long time no dick! Hahaha!~" Chizuru's craziness was being used as an ice breaker. All the while a different kind of ice breaking would be occurring for Yugi, in the form of a route for the cat woman whose interest was absolutely obvious.

Jun was forward-thinking enough to continue looking through some System options while Miko spoke. He didn't expect anything else so ludicrous to pass her lips just yet, but lo... she had to mention owning a new Lamborghini and having it stored within a magical box with an unknown size limit. "There's really no end, is there..." he said about the ridiculousness of the System. "Sou ka. I have my own profile," he observed while looking to see a quest connected to Miko ─ a completed quest. Miko would also be seeing it from the Player perspective.

[DAILY BOND EVENT - COMPLETE]

Bondmate: Ohara Jun

Event: Complete one "therapy session" with Jun.

Reward: +10 Perception Points

Progress: 1/1

System Message:
Jun is waiting for his next session.

Whatever version of that event Jun saw, he chuckled. "Funny. I was just thinking about the possibility of penciling you in for any random day. Is this thing attaching itself to my subconscious?" he wondered, meandering toward his desk and placing a passing hand atop Miko's head along the way. "Or maybe yours? Were you thinking of a daily visit? Or is this all coincidental?"

In the meantime, Yugi was unable to keep his eyes off the literal catgirl standing in front of him ─ who also seemingly couldn't keep her eyes off him. She called his member a weapon of mass destruction, warning those yakuza against their current behavior. Yugi wasn't worried about them at all, yet the lesser individuals seemed most ready for combat. One man with an orange pompadour had even broken off a wooden bedpost, ready to use it as a sword. "What's the move, Boss? We doing this guy or not?!" he asked, but the boss's attention had been drawn by... someone whose current state only left her recognizable to him by the way she spoke. "You? Didn't think you ran off just to find monsters. Where's the rest of 'em?" he wondered. All the while, Yugi was spreading his arms low, as though inviting the cat woman's inspection. Much to his satisfaction, there was a route appearing as well ─ one looking even cleaner than the last System update. "Lady you can get whatever you want from me. I accept. But, you're gonna have to get a whole set. Don't forget to scale if they're gonna need evidence~"

[Apollymi]

Jun received his System connection when it wasn't a life or death situation. As such he had way more freedom to think about all its functionality. When she told him about even the Lamborghini being in storage and thus him not having to worry about what he stored, he commented on the lack of end, "Not really no. We've been calling ourselves BETA testers given how much it's been changing as we complain or move forward," Miko explained situationally. Soon enough she was distracted, listening to a completion which gave her increased Perception as a reward. "Goddamnit Brainface, you could have been more clear about how that part works!~ I wouldn't have gone looking for one if I'd known something I was going to do anyway would count♪!~" Miko complained about the extra quest completion given her own impatience. Moving forward it seemed a similar version of that same screen was witnessed by Jun, who wondered if the System was attached to his subconscious, "Probably. It can see and incorporate all kinds of things about people. Probably mana related but it's growing thing. It evolves... as we do," Miko mentioned of the situation surrounding the System. "I did rush through doing two quests earlier for a double, but I am not opposed to more access and having someone to help me manage my emotions a bit better. Yours is particularly helpful to me, I get more Perception, which is good, because it helps me understand people better, as well as adding to my hearing in a different way. Besides being able to check-in with you daily for a while would be great for me, considering how much has happened in only a few days. I wouldn't want to leave you out of the loop of my growth and developments..." Miko mentioned as she accepted that hand on her head with a warm smile.

Beyond that point, there was a different kind of situation going on in that love hotel. As a group of people came together there was something rather interesting happening. Yugi had managed to start a connection with a new bondmate, and Chizuru, was seeing an old acquaintance. Both situations seemed to be working out at the same time, irrespective of the extra bodies in the room. "Ughahaha!~ Monsters, you're right about that. Didn't know I was gonna find one either! It's crazy right... it's just him! And I can't walk!~ Hahahahahahaha!~" Chizuru was still feeling little crazy but obviously she was familiar with this man. "What about you, it's been a while. I see you're moving up in the world, though... not enough to get rid of the pecker pack?~" Chizuru didn't seem at all bothered by her choice in words nor the insults she was dishing. Oh well, Yugi was now busy with that woman identified through the System as Kitagawa Reina. "Well, if you inisist!~" the woman said as she approached. Her body moving fluidly as she pulled out her phone and started snapping pictures, front the front, from the side. In front of her eyes. She couldn't help but show visual surprise as she got her own face in the pictures just so that the scaling was made properly. "Yo, this is a Friday Night kinda dick, the girlies aren't gonna know how to act. I found it, so I should get the finder's fee!~" she seemed to be planning something ridiculous but gone was even the remotest idea of her committing fully to the pack of Yakuza in the room.

[Bloodedge]

Miko and her mystery partner viewed themselves as testers in some video game with this System. That was easily understood as a comparison, and from what he saw, Jun could agree with the notion. Beyond that however, Miko saw/heard the notification about her completed Bond Event, and complained to an individual Jun had no reference for. "... Brainface," he repeated. Whatever the case, it was clear Miko gained something from a simple therapy session with him. As the mention of a session was strangely quoted, Jun rationalized that it may have been one of the... special variety to count for that quest. "You don't have to make it a daily occurrence. But, if this works like a video game, I suppose you've got some sort of daily quest requirement? This 'perception' stat sounds like a good one to have. If you find yourself needing one of these events, or rather... if you need an 'emergency consultation' on any random day, I wouldn't be against the call. Just be sure to make those calls to my normal phone. I have to keep my records in order; I'm sure you understand~"

Meanwhile, Chizuru was explaining to the man named 'Ryo' that her current partner was the only one present. He looked to the other male, then up to the ceiling... and made an easy decision. The way they fell through the floor mid-coitus meant that one had to be a Hunter. He figured about C-rank, probably a Tanker whose reinforcement enabled such a fall. "Fuckin' freak. I told you about going after Hunters," he chastised ─ though it seemed everything was alright except Chizuru's legs, face, hair and holes. No matter. "Ain't important what I got going on. You awakened yet?" was his only response to Chizuru's light curiosity about his own life. At the same time, Yugi watched Reina take a full series of pictures, catching his cock from multiple angles. She was so very close at a certain point, Yugi considered sharing a few choice words... but it seemed like Reina was having a similar enough idea of her own accord. As such, he commented on that directly. "Finder's fee, huh? Sounds like a good strat to me. What do you have in mind?" he asked while looking around the room, finding the lesser yakuza to be whispering amongst themselves... as if plotting without their boss was a good idea.

[Apollymi]

Miko would leave her partner a mystery because outing him to anyone else wasn't her intention. Besides that they had the perfect makings for a bit of secrecy, they didn't even refer to each other by name in most cases. A reference she could explain however was the one for 'Brainface'. "Yeah, the administrator of the System who has to exist because the reactivity was initially a bit too... conscious of an effort. Kind of a dick, always watching us and definitely sitting in the chair," Miko explained in an almost casual way. Jun was clever in a way that Miko might have once assigned him the title of the smartest person she knew. Of course, that had been completely overshadowed by what she now considered to be the best brain in the entire world, but... that didn't mean she'd be dismissive. "Hai, that's about right. We do have dailies, they restarted after yesterday. The originals were for physical modifications but... we gained our physical stats a bit too quickly. If you're interested you could take up the workout regime that we abandoned, we have every reason to believe that it will help you make adjustments towards more offensive capabilities. if being more combat ready is important to you," the girl pulled up her own phone for the man to see waht their daily quests now looked like, though hers were already claimed and double complete. "I'll be sure to contact you through normal means. I wouldn't want you to not be able to prove our completely therapeutic relationship♪!~" Miko said words that were the absolute truth but there was a known bit of deviant amusement in her voice. She enjoyed when she could tell the truth and do something a little sneaky. "You are quite the useful bonus. I'll be... keeping you in active rotation, even if it isn't every day. It will definitely at least be once or maybe twice a week now," Miko confirmed her own desire to keep up her therapy for platonic reasons as well.

While the end of Miko's therapeutic session was something of a casual discussion between her and the therapist while he waited on his next appointment. Chizuru had apparently known the man whose room they fell into and they were having quite the interesting time. "Damn right!~ And I told you, I'm not interviewing people. I'm just setting the stage! Hehahaha!~" Chizuru claimed. She was finding the whole of the situation to be kind of crazy, but she was still her usual self. "Officially... maybe. Life's real weird right now. I won't know for a bit but... after taking that, I'd probably be cook for a normal round as long as you aren't trying to kill me!~ Not right now though, I'm crazy but... ya' know how it is!~" Chizuru claimed with high amusement. Still, Reina was looking at the lad in front of him taking all kinds of pictures of his junk and saying something crazy. "Our usual deal is the one who finds, runs the test. That's the finder's fee. Then there's a gambit, if the rest of the girls agree... but I'm pretty sure you're everyone's type, so running it by them is not gonna take long, but... we're grown ups now, this is day off activity. I'd commit to it right now, but I got shit to do today!~ And now this room is gonna get busted into by the hotel staff pretty soon... not to mention the lower Yakuza dudes being, well Yakuza dudes. Get your number, may slip in a little early, and arrange a plus... 3? Yeah, Saorin's still outta town, but I can probably get Nono to relapse~" she claimed knowing the truth of the day better than most others, she'd been in several 'shut the whole place down' situations.

[Bloodedge]

For some reason, Miko and her partner referred to the one who gave them power as... Brainface. It was an odd epithet that created an equally odd mental image, but he supposed that was the intention. "Sou ka. You two must like your Sci-Fi. Chair?" he questioned further. Already sitting in his own chair, Jun took a moment to check on the next appointment. He had a newer patient at this hour, but he doubted there would be much to the meeting. While sitting again, Jun finally realized there was a cushion placed beneath his desk. He kicked it ─ gently enough to get a feel for its softness without displacing it. An amusing thought crossed his mind. "Once a week is fine. Twice would be lovely. It looks like you've already started setting yourself up a nice little fort in my office. Do you like this spot?" he asked teasingly.

Chizuru wasn't going around looking for Hunters; she was just finding them in this case. Ryo scoffed and spat on the floor. If she could take on a Hunter and survive, though, it was easy to believe she did have it in her to take a few rounds. Alas, Chizuru didn't think that would work here and now. That was funny. "Don't want to get fucked? Don't drop into a room for fuckin'," he said, reaching for his pants zipper. One of the other yakuza members picked up on the energy and began pulling his breeches down as well. "Yeah, that's the way Boss! Who cares about all that other shit? Let's dive in some bitches!" the bald one announced. At that point, Yugi was hearing about the deal between Reina and her comrades. She was meant to test the dick before spreading it to her friends, but knowing she had things to do today, she thought the better of running said test now. "That's nothing to worry about. I could have you right as rain again in seconds if you needed to be. Or you could just..." Yugi was in the process of reaching out for Reina's head when he heard that bald man's announcement. He saw Ryohei taking a single step toward Chizuru. The bald one and another who sported a high ponytail were moving and preparing with even more vigor... but all three would be stopped in their tracks as Yugi glared toward the group, Bloodlust in full effect and seemingly oozing from his being en masse. "Get your ugly asses away. I don't share with baldies or trash," he ordered. Of that trio, only Ryo managed to avoid collapsing to his knees on the spot. He remained standing, looking warily at Yugi ─ who was right back to addressing Reina as if he hadn't a care in the world. "So, what? Were you gonna go back to wasting time here? Or is this just a low-impact kind of day for you because you've got plans?"

[Apollymi]

The Doctor pondered Miko and Yugi enjoying their sci-fi, and questioned the chair. Miko had to think about it for a moment or two while she maintained her perch, to reply properly. "No choice but to like the sci-fi. Also chair... a guy sitting in a chair not getting involved in the sex stuff because he can't... It also doesn't help that he's up to something," Miko said succinctly. She wasn't here to completely disregard their administrator, but his desires and theirs weren't necessarily the same thing. And any strings attached to their current forms would have to be cut by force, of this she as certain. Beyond that it seemed her place of comfort beneath Jun's desk was discovered, well, he'd been the one to put her under there in the first place. Miko shifted, gently crawling across the desk before slipping down, first into Jun's lap and then further still onto her pillow. "Hai, I like it here... the space feels safe. And I'm glad I can fit... a few little touches and it'll be perfect♪!~" she said only to give it a bit more thought. "Shop♪!~" she began looking through furniture using a bit of her recently restored coin to find a desk with the right general look but better stats than the one she was under. "I found a nice upgrade, would you like it♪!~" Miko mused. An affirmative would have her replacing Jun's current desk in an instant, with one from the shop, made of a stronger wood with an almost imperceptible alien glow and most of the same spaces but quite a few hidden compartments, including ones for her little space beneath. There was a set in here for only a couple thousand gold, that also came with a chaise chair and a super comfortable deviant office chair which she could technically replace his current items with.

Meanwhile, Chizuru was hearing an interesting conversation was happening between Chizuru and Ryo as she called him. "Ah, come on... it's not gonna be fun for you if my legs don't work and I fresh off something crazy~" she said almost teasingly. It was like she was daring him to try something. But something she definitely wasn't going to do was deal with the riff-raff. And apparently, she wouldn't have to be the one to say so. "Ooh? Daddy's so aggressive!~ Hahaha!~ Ryo, we talked about this, you're in charge now right? Why keep the dead weight?" she wondered as point of genuine curiosity. She also wiggled her eye brows at the men on the floor taunting them just a bit because it was hilarious. Meanwhile, Reina felt tat disruption, like a jolt of electricity down her spine all the way to the tip of her tail. Her ears puffed a little and her tail furred. "Oh... that was a hard turn. But I gotta respect a man who knows better than to share with the undeserving~" Reina said. As a person with a solid friend group, she knew the importance of keeping yourself surrounded by people who could be considered equals, whose opinions held weight, and who were both like-minded enough and independent enough. As for the question Reina smirked seeming to examine her nails after giving his words consideration. "I'd consider it a normal day. Ryocchi is fun. The rest are unnecessary but you know how it is... like that one friend whose friends don't understand that a date isn't supposed to be a group hangout? It's like that... but I can't commit to high impact... I'm on call~" she said almost casually. Little did they know, upstairs several knocks were occurring and a desk clerk and manager were making their way into Chizuru and Yugi's former room, looking for the disturbance and not immediately finding it until they looked down into the hole into the room below.

[Bloodedge]

With Miko's explanation, Jun completely understood the 'chair' reference she was making. It was strange to think she and her partner were gaining phenomenal power from a cuckold, but one couldn't judge things so easily. "Sou ka. That's incredibly strange, but so is everything in the world this year," he stated. Miko took her place under the desk again, praising the space but claiming it could be better with a few touches. She accessed the System shop to offer an upgrade. Jun nodded, and quickly saw his desk traded for something that seemed to come right out of a dungeon ─ much like that strange phone. "There might be a few too many conveniences in this power system you've got. I'll have to keep─" Just then, there was another knock on Jun's office door. "Ohara-san. Hashimoto-san is here," Nao announced, unknowingly interrupting a conversation in progress. "Arigatou. Send him in," Jun said. In the very next moment, he'd be looking down at Miko ─ his legs spreading as if to block her exit from either side of the desk's opening.

Chizuru argued that Ryo would be missing fun from her lack of movement. Moreover, she disregarded his gang... and so did that unknown man who'd dropped in with her, albeit with a bit more ability to actually stop the group. "My gang ain't your problem... but what the fuck kind of crazy did you hook up with?" he asked. Even Ryo, an A-rank Hunter, had sweat forming on his brow from what seemed like a simple glare. The other two had visions of their own deaths, and were frozen in fear for the moment. Ah, but there were two others still. Those who hadn't been stunned were moving around to prepare an assault against Yugi ─ their private discussion leaving them the belief that they could take down the black-haired male and lay claim to his woman. "A 'normal' day involves a yakuza gangbang where only the boss is worth anything? That's a weird hentai plot," Yugi said. He was fully aware of the ongoing plot against him, but he was also completely unbothered. "You could commit to high impact. I can heal you. Watch." With that said, Yugi produced a potion that he'd promptly toss at Chizuru. The regenerative effects of what he'd given her earlier seemed to continue long enough to raise her over 10% ─ at least it seemed that way to him. If he was right in that regard, she could easily be healed to full capacity. "Besides, there's always room for something. You wanna just leave a guy with that kind of excitement built up?"

There was more than just an intrusion to the room he and Chizuru had so recently fallen through. While the clerk and manager were discovering a massive hole in the floor, the man with the orange pompadour was leading a charge ─ a rather reckless one that didn't show concern for Reina's proximity to his and his partner's target. "Get some, nerd!" he announced while leaping overhead, that broken bedpost raised as if it were a sword. Ryo was still too strongly affected by Bloodlust to rein in his subordinates, but that didn't matter to Yugi at all. "That's the plan, but..." There was a pause in Yugi's speech just long enough to allow motion. His left hand rose, mimicking a grab at the air in the fifth yakuza member's direction. Yugi wasn't going to be flanked so easily. The one jumping and yelling to grab his attention immediately had his partner in stupidity thrown via telekinesis. Both men slammed into each other midair, and were effectively thrown into the room upstairs after their heads were literally smashed together. That pair of hotel workers would have to watch out. . .

[Apollymi]

Brainface, by Miko and Yugi's standards was a cuck, either by virtue of what he wanted to do with that yet unseen princess or by virtue of the fact that he wasn't able to get involved directly with the girl Player. "I can see that. I haven't even really had time to take in all the world changes yet... bit by bit," Miko decided. She'd be immersed in everything eventually there was no real point in rushing except to make sure their strength was reached appropriately. Moving on from that, Miko took the time to show one of the System's other features... the desk was changed and then she opened up the little drawer beside her, finding it full of sex toys. Her eyes widened and she cleared it out, dropping them into Jun's inventory but filling the drawer with real snacks for herself. "Hai, I'll let you know. I'll also drop the rest of this set into your Inventory so you can redecorate if you like," Miko encouraged the man to look into things of his own accord. Of course, the knock at the door had a surname Miko was a bit too familiar with, but she'd find herself caged in. "Ooh?♪~ Holding me hostage?♪~" Miko flirted lightly. Still she looked up a bit curiously. "Please tell me that isn't Hashimoto Kaito, my luck can't be that weird..." Miko said earnestly. Still, she couldn't really argue with the view, nor would she be doing anything to release herself from the space. No... instead, she'd be looking and finding the chapstick version of that lipstick she applied to herself and holding it out. "A little mana and what you say won't be heard by anyone you don't want to hear it," Miko offered Jun knowing he'd likely appreciate it more than many people, considering what he was into as far as his 'creeping' behavior.

Meanwhile, Chizuru wasn't too shy about the advances of Ryo as she was calling him, but she wasn't exactly pleased with his lackies. In truth she'd never really been, but Ryo had pretty decent control over them, though not enough for this situation... she thought. She wasn't one for battle sequences, but perhaps there was quite a bit to consider, "The super special awesome kind!~ He's great♪~ It was the perfect set up, and I threw it all away 'cause I couldn't resist and that's saying something!♪~ Pushed him out a train didn't even know where I was..." Chizuru mentioned almost as if playfully catching up a friend. As for Yugi, he and Reina were having a conversation and he called this a 'freaky hentai plot' as a normal day, "Look I was a party girl to start with, weak men were an issue long before Awakenings started," Reina claimed in an a casual manner. "Oh? You a freaky mage? That body doesn't say mage though..." Reina wondered at the production of a potion. It had come out of nowhere considering this man was ass naked, but some mages had storage she knew that... and the item was tossed to the girl she thought looked like a friend of her sister's who caught it and chuckled. "Waaahahaha!~ Daddy's showing mercy, I might get my legs back!~" she mused as she turned it up and drank something which tasted like a special gatorade but definitely was getting her body back in order.

What couldn't be changed however was the fate of the two who thought they were gonna jump Yugi. Reina shifted, watching one man fly into another without the dark haired lad even moving. The people upstairs jumped back as two people went flying. "I mean usually the excitement helps a bit but... yooo. Did you get telekinesis? That's wicked fucking crazy!" she exclaimed finding herself a bit to freaked out. All the while the management from upstairs squealed before someone finally managed to say something. "Excuse me. This hotel isn't for Hunters. We need to know who is being billed for the damages. And I'd like to point you to the hotel down the streets for your... ahem needs," that desk person finished, their heart beating out of control as the manager stood there looking like an enforcer but silently shaking in his boots knowing he couldn't do anything about the Yakuza or that naked gentleman downstairs.

[Bloodedge]

Nao immediately moved back to the waiting room to inform the next patient of Jun's readiness. In the meantime, Jun was content to keep Miko locked beneath that new desk; he wasn't done with her yet. This whole System, its associated powers and benefits ─ all of that paled in comparison to what Jun had been seeking as a psychiatrist in certain sessions. With a few minutes of rest under his belt, he could surely be ready for another round of Miko's antics. "Let's worry about all those powers later. It's time for another... session~" he said. Ah, but something was odd. Miko spoke a name that was absolutely the one Jun had on record. He wasn't sure how she knew the man, but it was too late to say anything about it now. Taking that tube of Chapstick and preparing to spread it, he watched the office door opening. "Hunter Hashimoto Kaito. Konnichiwa," he greeted. "Shut and lock the door, if you please." With that, the red-haired visitor bowed and did as requested. Kaito would then be approaching the desk. "Yoroshiku onegaishimasu. I've been going through a lot in work and life. I heard you could help," Kaito said as Jun gestured toward the chair. "I will certainly try my best. Have a seat, and tell me about it."

Meanwhile, Ryo still had about twenty seconds of stun to deal with as he watched Chizuru praise that unknown Hunter ─ and even accept some magic-looking bottle from him. Knowing Chizuru abandoned one of her weird stories for something definitely spoke volumes. On the other hand, Ryo didn't need that, as he was experiencing the proof of power at the moment... while Yugi kept up a casual conversation. "So I've heard. You could still just spring for an upgrade overall," he insisted. As for his classification as a 'Mage-type' compared to his body, Yugi decided to let virtual telekinesis speak for itself initially. Mage was his documented type, after all. "I'm a guy who can do things. The point is that I'm trying to do things to you~" he said as plainly as he disregarded and removed the two most problematic yakuza from the room. Sadly, he'd be interrupted once more from his progress... by the two workers upstairs. It was obvious which of them was in a position of management, and that fact was upsetting to Yugi when the wage worker started doing the talking. "Sou... You should get a new job. Here." A flick of Yugi's wrist tossed his Hunter ID up, even though he wasn't holding it initially. It was aimed perfectly at the girl he spoke to ─ as were his words. "I did it. Send the bill to the association and cite that name. Also call me later; busy day now. And you..." he paused, shifting his gaze toward the silent manager. "Grow a dick, and use it to go fuck yourself. What happened to management dealing with confrontations? It's like, one of the two things common workers get to be happy about, you fuck! Do your goddamn job!"

[Apollymi]

Nao went to alert the next patient, and Miko was locked in for yet another session. Apparently they could worry about all the rest of her powers and oddities later, and this was fine with Miko from several perspectives. "Sounds like it's time for second snack!~ Or third, I don't know, I lost count♪!~" Miko mused. She was comfortably settled on her pillow, happily beneath desk except for the oddity surrounding his next patient. "Small world. I hope it isn't my fault..." she murmured softly as Hashimoto Kaito entered the room. She heard him come in and shut and lock the door behind him. Miko for her part in this was content to begin working on her next snack and quietly let the therapist do his work. Kaito's voice sounded much the same as it had 2 nights prior. It seemed he'd mostly recovered and Miko breathed a sigh of relief. All the while those dainty little fingers of hers wouldn't be staying still... no, with their tingling mana traces she followed up Jun's leg, tracing the thigh his cock rested on, while resting her head on the other side almost completely relaxed into her safe space.

Meanwhile, Ryo was trying to get his life back together, while Chizuru casually drank a potion and waited for healing. It would be... Yugi still talking to Reina the entire time, insisting on his potential as an upgrade. "I'm not doubting an upgrade here..." Reina said with a cheeky smirk coming to her face. "But he's really is worth coming to see. I won't down play him or anything, I'm an A-rank and he does it for me. I figure you can too, but I'm not rude enough or ridiculous enough to assume an always call with someone I just met... who quite frankly should probably be doing porn or something," she said whimsically. Still Yugi continued to prove himself, he handled a disturbance effortlessly, and then continued to flirt with Reina. "Hm, that's pretty impressive isn't it!~ Nice and flirty too, I love that. You're making it pretty difficult for me," she said looking the lad over. She couldn't say he wasn't stronger than her, and if he was... she definitely didn't trust herself to take both men. At the same time,Chizuru was soon standing on somewhat wobbly legs getting a minor stretch in. "Woooh!~ That's much better..." she said.

Oddly enough those little chats weren't the only ones happening. Yugi soon threw his Hunter ID up at a lass who'd been forced into speaking as her manager apparently played strong silent type. She'd taken a deep breath and used the de-escalating tone she'd been training for all of her years in customer service. Oddly instead of being cursed or she was given the information and advice that she should seek a new job. "Kiriya Haruto-san. Arigatou Gouzaimasu..." she pulled out her phone, took a quick picture of his ID and dropped it back towards him. Surprise still on her face as she took in the look of his cock and had it not equate. 'E-rank?! HOW?!' the desk worker thought. She was about to thank him for being agreeable and finish the rest of the spiel but... he then chastised the manager for not doing his part. The man had the audacity to look huffy and cleared his throat. "My employee can handle it. And it isn't a rowdy customers concern. Now... all of you need to exit the premises. The room below will be refunded but this one is being invoiced. No Hunters!" he exclaimed. Though there was no signage or anything like that here so this was kind of his own fault. "Arigatou gouzaimasu..." the girl said strangely to Yugi as she went on to... file the paper work. Leaving that angry manager to continue his bluff without her.

As Miko settled beneath the desk to begin yet another phase of exploration, Kaito seated himself at the other side and began speaking. First though, he had to take a long, deep breath. "So... I think I ended up on Kaichou's shit list because of breakfast? I had a really good one, and it seemed like she was mad I didn't get her anything... or that I was enjoying something so much while she didn't have any? I don't know. But she'd spent the whole night before that dragging me around because nobody above my paygrade was there, and after the breakfast thing... there was this girl I was probably gonna hook up with. Didn't work. She ended up part of this secret project going on at the association, and Kaichou decided her first test was to hit me with a super strong attack. I lost my breakfast. I just recovered," he rambled. Jun took out a pad to take a few notes, glancing down at Miko for just a moment. In the meantime, Kaito continued. "Anyway, I talked to my friend, and he started going on about how this is how it all starts ─ the girl problems. He says that about everything, but there was this other girl this morning who just shoved me right off for saying hello. I don't want to end up with his problem even if it's all in my head, you know?"

Yugi and Reina were going in a small circle, it seemed. His progress hadn't gotten any farther than mere temptation, but there were also numerous, consistent interruptions. Reina didn't think dealing with him and Ryo was a good idea; he could tell that much. However, Yugi merely nodded in the recovered Chizuru's direction. "If you're on the fence, take a look. Or just say fuck the fence and go for a sample. That'd be the optimal solution," he suggested. Looking up, Yugi witnessed the very satisfying sight of shock in that clerk's face. This was the reason he enjoyed being labeled an E-rank Hunter. "Remember the part about calling me," he said before the manager gained his full attention... which was something that type of person surely wouldn't want after receiving it. He was speaking on the clerk's behalf, claiming she could handle work that should have been his. Strike one. How that man treated his employees was not the concern of a 'rowdy customer' apparently. Strike two. No Hunters was a 'rule' in this establishment, as enforced by the manager... though there wasn't a single sign or mention supporting the claim. "... Strike three." Yugi's hand twitched to a grip, not even rising this time. Still, the manager would be subjected to Ruler's Hand and rapidly dragged down to Yugi's level. The rest of their conversation would happen with more direct eye contact, featuring the blue sheen attributed to the System glossing over Yugi's Sharingan briefly. "My bad. I didn't realize there were no Hunters allowed here... because it's not a real rule, is it? But if it is a real rule, shouldn't you get out too? I should consider it my civic duty to remove you from the premises, and probably prevent you being anybody else's problem in the future. How does that sound?"

Miko was content to begin the process of working up Jun while casually hearing the story of Kaito's day after he encountered her. She winced just a bit, when hearing her part in his story. Though the rest made sense to her from an outside perspective. By the time that eye contact was made, Miko had a soft reply to give while reaching up to slowly but surely undo Jun's zipper. "Makima-sama wanted proof that we could learn certain things. Go-sei taught us Black Flash, I used it on Hashimoto-san, as ordered. I was about C-rank at the time maybe just over B-rank. It rearranged his internal organs, and I had to learn a healing spell to try and fix it. I didn't get a chance to properly apologize, I was going too but his Intimacy was too low to invite him to dinner," Miko filled in as she pulled his semi-hard cock from his pants and began to gently run her tongue along the side of it. Content to take her time with her meal this time. She filled in the blanks with information as she began a more playful form of blowjob for Jun running her tongue all the way up the side of his cock while her head continued to rest against his other thigh. Her magic still active she was rather easily content to remain as she was, with only Jun able to hear her voice and hear out the rest of Hashimoto's problems.

Meanwhile, Yugi was still wanting to talk himself into Reina. And in truth she wasn't opposed to that sort of thing at all... but she wasn't trying to have a problem with her arrangement. Though watching the lad lay out the group of men, she figured they likely couldn't have been used for her original plan. She looked over to Chizuru and tilted her head to the side, "Hey doll, how ya' feeling?" Reina asked the girl who chuckled. "Hehehe!~ Better than ever. You should have a go, it'll be way better for you than it was for me!~ I was fighting for my fucking life!~" Chizuru gave an honest assessment. "Okay!~ I'll..." Reina tried but failed to speak properly. She'd been about to commit, but she could see there was a lot going on in the moment. A poor desk worker was having to enforce a discriminatory policy. Meanwhile, her 'manager' was standing around like a silent wall who wasn't nearly strong enough to pull that off. Still while that girl ran off, the comment about remembering to call hit her ears... "Eh!?" that was it. Perhaps she would, or maybe hearing that conversation about fighting for life was enough to discourage any delusions of grandeur. Whatever the case, the lad had his ID back by a toss down and she was going to file paper work, and perhaps put in some job applications elsewhere. As she was leavign though, she heard the start of a commotion and she wanted to be all the way downstairs by the time it happened. That manager, for his part, tried to double down and had it not worked. Without any real knowledge of what was hapening, he was suddenly in front of a naked lad by not his own movements behind held captive. "You can't do this to me. You've been warned. The rule is flexible but I'm flexing it. You've caused a problem so you have to gah-go!" he struggled but he got the sentence out. Still, as he tried to struggle he couldn't hold whatever was around him, he couldn't break free but he was still trying as futile as it seemed. "Saw this guy handle two Yakuza, still didn't just let that go. It's always the average strength ones with below average intelligence," Reina said as she casually flicked her hand over one of those cat ears. "If you do anything too crazy, I will have to dip. I can't drag myself into something like this..." she mentioned hands up. She wasn't obligated to help a douche, but she also wasn't going to involve herself if she didn't have to, such was he rnature, just a tiny bit fickle.

[Bloodedge]

After a brief glance down at Miko, Jun learned the finer details of what Kaito dealt with. He'd been struck by the notorious technique known as Black Flash, had his internal organs shredded, and... frankly got out of it all with greater ease than most in that situation. "What a shame," he said, letting only Miko hear that phrase. For Kaito, he would only do his job. "So you believe a couple of days with terrible luck means you're going to have a bad time with women? I think you're right about one thing. That sort of problem is absolutely in your head. The longer you stay wound-up about that, the worse things will be. Have you thought about revisiting one of those women?" he asked while jotting down a couple of points. Kaito shook his head. "Not really? I've been put on a lot of administrative stuff lately. The first girl, I'm pretty much guaranteed to run into eventually... but it's hard to look someone like that in the eye after what happened, you know? Kinda makes me want to just cut my losses. The other girl wasn't even my type; it just sucked to have that happen."

Just at the wrong time, it sounded like Reina was coming over to the right side. Yugi could have been outwardly upset about yet another interruption... but this one was technically his fault. Oh well. If he just dealt with the manager quickly enough, perhaps he could salvage something. Even grasped by an invisible force, the man didn't stop getting on Yugi's nerves. Flexible rules were the tools of those who abused their power. If there was to be an abuse of power, Yugi had a lot more to abuse. "Flexible rules should mean flexible people. It's your rule, isn't it? A salaryman who awakened to a rank that looked decent, but didn't translate to the lavish life you hoped for. So... this 'flexible rule' of yours is actually just you letting E-ranks, D-ranks and I'm guessing fellow C-ranks slide. In any other situation, it's the one little flex you have on the Hunters with real power. That is, unless a fine ass Neko Gyaru who's way stronger than you walks in. That's just a chance to impress the bitches, right? Maybe you even thought it could become an opportunity to mention how hard you bent the rules to let her in ─ and since she came in with a group of yakuza, obviously she's just whoring around... right? That means you've got a chance, right? RIGHT?!" As he pressed the manager for answers, Yugi squeezed with Ruler's Hand. The grip was easily enough to strangle a C-rank, possibly even breaking bones. Ah, but Yugi had reason not to go too far. Or did he? Reina claimed she'd have to make herself scarce if he did something extreme. "Why not come with me then? I could take us somewhere else instantly... if you're interested enough in hooking up."
