Waking up in the morning, the first thing to greet my eyes was an unfamiliar ceiling.

That’s only natural.

After all, this was the first time I’d ever woken up in such a massive bed.

On top of that, following Roa’s suggestion to include a canopy, it had turned into a four-poster setup resembling the kind found in fantasy novels where nobles sleep.

But waking up in such a splendid bed was less important than what came next.

"Mmm..."

Beside me lay the beautiful girl who was stirring awake: Fukaho.

Her signature ponytail, her trademark feature, had clearly been let down for sleep, as stray strands were scattered across the bedsheet like fallen petals.

I’d seen her this way a few times before—like after she got out of the bath—but even so, it was a fresh sight to behold.

"Good morning, Fukaho."

Fukaho opened her eyes, took one look at me with a flash of surprise, and then blushed as though suddenly remembering something.

"G-Good morning, Sousuke-san."

She hastily sat up in a fluster.

The bed and the floor around it still bore strong traces of what had happened yesterday.

My trousers, used condoms, towels stained with our sweat and other fluids, a distinctive scent hanging in the air, and the crimson evidence marking Fukaho’s loss of virginity all told the story.

Because we’d gone through the bonus area and crossed the vast expanse of white space between them, it felt like a significant amount of time had passed. Yet the state of the room immediately brought back memories of last night’s events.

"Ah... Fukaho. Your window is open."

"...!?"

The buttons on her uniform were still undone, as I had left them, exposing the skin of her chest.

She hastily covered herself with both hands.

"Ah... it's embarrassing."

I felt that we had done far more embarrassing things yesterday, but perhaps this was a different kind of shame.

"Are you physically okay?"

"Eh... y-yes. Thank you... There is a bit of an ache, but I'm fine."

"Just to be safe, let's ask Chiiru for a Basic Recovery spell."

"O-oh. Okay. ...But will Miss Chiiru mind?"

Admittedly, having your girlfriend heal the pain of breaking your virginity from another girl’s loss of purity might have been quite the clumsy move.

"No, but since she cast Pain Relief for you earlier, it should be fine, right? If she has any complaints, Chiiru would just tell us."

"That's... right. Right. So then... Sōsuke?"

As I got out of bed, pulled on my pants, and opened the window to let some fresh air in, Fukaho was looking at me.

"Hm?"

"W-well, it seems the other girls did all sorts of things this morning too, but aren't we supposed to have that event next?"

"Y-yes, we are..."

We were supposed to gather in the living room immediately after waking up.

But for the last three days, I’d been spending mornings with Chiyu and the others doing all sorts of things.

Maybe it wasn’t good that Shinhou was the only one missing out on that.

She got out of bed, quickly straightened her clothes, and approached me.

Standing there, she gently placed both hands against my chest as she moved closer, stretching up slightly to press a kiss to my lips.

“It’s just that... if you don’t take care of me properly later, I won’t be happy...?”

When she said that with her eyes glistening like that, how could I possibly refuse? Besides, I had no intention of refusing in the first place.

“Ah, yeah.

Of course.”

“Good.”

She flashed a brief smile, and we headed together toward the living room.

Just before the doorway stood Chiyu, who quickly cast ‘Intermediate Cure’ and ‘Purify’ on us.

‘Purify’ was probably her substitute for taking a shower.

Since the event would start soon, we didn’t have time to wash away last night’s traces.

Casting magic in front of everyone would be too blatant, so it seemed she was being considerate. “Thanks, Chiyu.”

“Mm.

No problem, really.”

Chiyu kept a blank expression while giving a firm thumbs-up. “Ah, thank you, Ms.

Chiyu.”

"With this, Mino-chan is officially in the harem."

"Does... does that mean it's settled?"

Fukaho turned red again.

It was a situation I had never once imagined while living in Japan.

Chiyu, my childhood friend; Yoko, the delinquent who was surprisingly kind to otaku; Shiine, the pure girl with an overwhelming fan base among boys; and Fukaho, the strict, earnest, and smart class president.

I had ended up dating all four of them simultaneously.

"Sou-kun, that leaves twenty, right?"

"Why is the premise that I have to be with every single one of them?"

There were twenty-three female students, plus Professor Luminas, making a total of twenty-four women on the island.

You could even say that one-sixth of the women on the island were now my girlfriends, but...

"I-it's an exaggeration to say 'everyone,' but I do think there’s a chance the number will increase further."

"It's going to increase for sure. The wife who holds the official title knows that."

"Mmm... N-no, let's focus on the event now."

Images of my time with Roa and Mashiro’s behavior in the changing room flitted through my mind, but I shoved them aside; now wasn’t the time for that.

The three of us entered the living room, taking in everyone present.

"Morning. Since I need to explain things to the Mashiros too, how about we head outside?"

At Yobiko’s suggestion, I nodded.

"Aah, let's do that. All event members, please gather outside the house."

The final roster consisted of myself, Chiyu, Yobiko, Fuhou, and Genchu.

Dream Realm’s barrier ability is useful, but this time they will be staying behind to guard this house and the absent party unit.

The participating members headed outside, though for some reason the other members followed them.

It seemed they were seeing us off.

Stepping out into the early morning air, the world was bathed in a pale, soft light.

Mashiro of Fenrir and Mikron of the Black Dragon approached Yobiko and me, respectively.

"Oh-oh, good boy. Mashiro is being a good girl today~. We have an event ahead, so take care." / "Take it easy too, Mikron."

Stroking the soft, fluffy black fur, I spoke to them in a gentle voice.

"Oh, right. Genchu, could you try transforming into your Phantom Beast just to test it out?"

Genchuu stared blankly at the sight, his shoulders jerking.

"Y-Yeah! Um, well, let's just try transforming into Fenrir for now!"

As she closed her eyes in concentration, her body flashed with light for an instant. The next second—Fenrir appeared.

"Whoa. Amazing! Is he a little bigger than Mashiro-kun?"

Shiou clapped her hands in surprise.

"Mew wow! Let me cuddle~"

When Shozu hugged him, Genchuu's Fenrir whimpered in distress.

But the one who reacted even more strongly than Shozu was Mashiro.

Mashiro approached Genchuu-Fenrir, staring at her with heavy, rough breathing.

Genchuu-Fenrir backed up a few steps, looking flustered.

"Mashiro, stay. Even if she looks like a Fenrir, Meow-chan is a heroine candidate for Saiku-kun."

"...They are living creatures after all. Is it not only natural that they would want to continue their lineage?"

At the reactions from Chiya and Shinho, Genchuu-Fenrir shuddered and reverted back to human form.

The woman who returned was left with tear-filled eyes.

"Now, Mashiro! You can't scare Mian like that!"

Scolded by Shoushi, Mashiro slumped his shoulders in dejection.

"Oh... um, Mashiro-kun? Well, I'm doing just fine, so there's no need to look so dejected..."

Genchu offered her comfort.

"...Just to be safe, wouldn't it be better to transform into the Black Dragon?"

"S-Sure, that makes sense."

Nodding in agreement with Yume's advice, Genchu bobbed her head affirmatively.

"...If Lady Shoushi summons a female Fenrir and bonds with her as well, would a child Fenrir be born?"

Roa voiced a simple question.

That was something he wondered about too, along with what status that child would hold if one were to be born.

Would it be treated as Shoushi's summon beast? Or could it move freely without the restrictions on its abilities?

Well, it wasn't something to worry about right now.

Before they knew it, the start time for the event drew near.

The party had already been adjusted to a five-person formation, and everyone's condition was in order.

"About time," one said.

"Good luck with your battles, everyone," the other added.

Roa sends them off with the kind of phrase you’d only hear in a martial arts or war epic.

"An event where students have to fight each other... please, everyone come back safe and sound, okay?"

Sensei Luminas prays her hands together, his face etched with worry.

"You guys are the strongest team, you're gonna win for sure! Go get 'em!"

Shoubei cheers them on with boundless energy.

"...Alright, leave this end to me. No one's getting through until Kujiro and the others get back."

Yumekai volunteers to guard their absence.

"I'll make a delicious breakfast and wait for you."

Suppressing her unease, Shion said with a smile.

"Ah, I'm off."

"To bring back the 'Right of Return'."

"I'll definitely win!"

"So that we can all come home together one day, I'll give it my all."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay..."

Genshuu is the only one who looks anxious, but generally, everyone seems to be in their usual form.

And then, suddenly, the field of vision is washed in blinding white.

The next moment, we were in the forest.

Looking around, I noticed a grand castle of sand built right behind us.

We'd need to defend this while destroying the enemy's castle, presumably.

"So-kun, that."

When Chiyu pointed at the sky, I turned to follow her gesture and saw a hexahedron like crystal floating in mid-air.

And then, text appeared within it.

"[5, 4, 3 until the start of the first match]"

They appeared to have been placed in place of a blackboard or monitor.

"Alright, let's get started."

"Two... one... zero!"

The first match began.

When I woke up, I saw an unfamiliar ceiling. That's right.

It was the first time I had woken up in this huge bed.

Moreover, since Roa had suggested it, the bed was now a canopy bed, like something a noble in a fantasy would sleep in.

But there was something more important than sleeping in such a grand bed. "Hmm..."

Beside me, the beautiful girl, Shinpo, had woken up.

Her trademark ponytail was undone, as expected, and was scattered all over the bed.

I had seen her like this a few times before, after baths, but it was still a fresh sight. "Good morning, Shinpo."

When Shinpo opened her eyes, she looked at me in surprise for a moment, then immediately blushed as if remembering something. "G-good morning, Sohatsu." Shinpo hurriedly sat up.

The bed and the floor around it were still filled with traces of our activities from the previous night.

There were my pants, used condoms, towels used to wipe away our sweat and other things, a unique smell, and Shinpo's first time, marked in a deep red.

The bonus area and the white space in between made it feel like a lot of time had passed, but the state of the room immediately reminded me of last night's events.

"Ah... Shinpo, your shirt is open." "......"

The uniform buttons were still undone, so her skin was visible.

She hurriedly covered her chest with both hands. "Ugh... I'm embarrassed."

I thought she was more embarrassed about something else from yesterday, but maybe this is different. "Are you okay?"

"Y-Yes, thank you... It feels a bit strange, but I'm fine."

"Just in case, I'll ask Senyuu to use 'Basic Healing' on you."

"T-That's true... But, won't Senyuu feel bad?"

Indeed, having your lover’s healer cure another lover’s pain of losing their virginity might be a pretty scummy move.

But, well, she did cast Pain Relief on me, so it’s okay, right? If she has any complaints, she’ll tell me, since she’s Chienju.

Right, that’s right. So… Kousuke?

While I got off the bed and put on my pants, opening the window to let in some fresh air, Shinpo was looking at me. “Hmm?”

“W-well, the others were… doing… all sorts of things in the morning, but aren’t we going to have an event next?” “Y-yeah…”

We were supposed to meet in the living room as soon as we woke up.

But for the past three days, I had been doing various things with Chiyo in the morning.

Maybe it's not good that only Shinpo isn't doing that.

She got out of bed and quickly dressed, then came over to me.

She approached me, gently placing her hands on my chest, and stretched slightly to kiss me.

"So... I don't want you to ignore me later, okay?"

She said with moist eyes, and there was no way I could refuse. I didn't even want to refuse.
"Ah, yeah. Of course."
"Good."

She smiled and we headed to the living room together.

Chiyo was standing in front of the living room, quickly casting 'Intermediate Healing' and 'Purification' on us.

The 'Purification' was probably meant to be a substitute for a shower.

Since the event would start soon, we didn't have time to wash off the traces of last night.

She probably did it because it would be too obvious to cast magic in front of everyone.
"Thanks, Chiyo."
"It's fine."

Chiyo remained expressionless and raised her thumb.
"Ah, thank you, Chiyo-san."

「So, Mino-chan is officially in the harem now.」

「Y-Yeah, I guess that's how it is.」 Minaho blushes again.

No matter how many times I think about it, it's a situation I never would have imagined when I was in Japan.

My childhood friend Senyu, the friendly otaku girl Shouko, the pure and popular girl Shion, and the strict, serious, and intelligent class president Minaho.

I'm dating all four of them at the same time.

「Sousuke, there are twenty left, right?」

「Why do you assume I'll end up with all the girls?」

Including Lumina-sensei, there are twenty-three female students and one teacher on the island, making a total of twenty-four women.

So, one-sixth of the women on the island are my girlfriends... though...

「W-Well, even if I don't say everyone, I do think it might increase.」

「It will definitely increase. A wife knows.」

「U-Um... L-Let's focus on the event for now.」

Even as thoughts of my encounter with Roa and the actions of Shoubu in the changing room surfaced, I pushed them away, knowing that now was not the time for such distractions.

We entered the living room together, and I looked around at everyone.

"Good morning. I want to explain things to Mashiro and the others, so why don't we go outside?" I nodded at Shokushi's words.

"Yeah, let's do that. The event participants will go outside."

The final participants were me, Senyuu, Shokushi, Shinpo, and Genju.

Dream World's barrier abilities were useful, but this time, they would be protecting the house and the留守番組.

The participants were heading outside, but for some reason, the other members followed along, seemingly to see us off.

When we went outside, it was still early morning, so the sky was only faintly light.

Mashiro, the Fenrir, approached Shokushi, and Mikuron, the black dragon, came near me.

"Okay, good girl Mashiro. We've got an event today, so be good." "You too, Mikuron."

While petting Mikuron's fluffy black fur, I spoke gently to him.

"Oh, right. Genju, how about you try transforming into a phantasmal beast?"

Gengou, who had been staring blankly at me, suddenly shivered.

“Y-Yeah! Um, then I’ll transform into Fenrir for now!”

As she closed her eyes to concentrate, her body briefly glowed, and the next moment—Fenrir appeared.

“Wow! That’s amazing! She’s a little bigger than Mashiro-kun, isn’t she?” Shion clapped her hands in surprise.

“Meow, that’s amazing! Let me pet you~”

When Shoubu hugged her, Gengou’s Fenrir meowed in confusion.

But Mashiro was the one who reacted more strongly.

As he approached Gengou’s Fenrir, Mashiro stared at her with a heavy breath.

Gengou’s Fenrir took a few steps back in confusion.

“Mashiro, stay. She looks like Fenrir, but Mia-chan is your heroine candidate.”

“…I guess it’s only natural for a phantasmal beast to want to leave behind offspring, as they are living beings too.”

Gengou’s Fenrir shivered and reverted to her human form at the reactions of Senyuu and Shinpo.

She returned with tearful eyes.

"Hey Mashiro! You shouldn't scare Mya!"

Scolded by Masako, Mashiro drooped her shoulders.

"Ah, um, Mashiro-kun? If it's me, I'm fine, so you don't have to be so down..." Genjuu tried to comfort him.

"...Just in case, if you're going to transform, it might be better to go with the black dragon." "Y-Yeah, you're right."

Genjuu nodded in agreement with the advice from the dream world.

"...If Masako-sama summons a female Fenrir, and if she were to be united with Mashiro-sama, would a child Fenrir be born?" Roa voiced a simple question.

That was also a concern, and if a child were to be born, it was also a concern how that child would be treated.

Would it be treated as a summoned beast of Masako's, or would it be able to act freely without the constraints of its abilities?

Well, it wasn't something to think about now.

As they were talking, the time for the event was approaching.

The party had already been changed to a five-person formation, and everyone was in good spirits. "It's almost time." "Everyone, please have good luck."

Roah sends them off with phrases you'd hear in battle stories.

"Having an event where students fight each other... Please, everyone, come back safe."

Luminas-sensei, with a worried look on her face, clasps her hands together as if praying.

"With our strongest team, we'll definitely win! Go get 'em!"

Zoubu cheers them on with all her might.

"...Leave this to me. No one gets through until Kouno and the others come back." Mueki takes over the watch.

"I'll make a delicious breakfast and wait for you."

Shion, hiding her anxiety, smiles and says, "I'll be waiting with a nice breakfast." "Yeah, we're going." "We'll bring back the 'right of return'." "We'll definitely win!"

"For the day we all come back together, I'll do my best."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay..."

Only Genjuu looks worried, but everyone else seems to be in their usual spirits.

And then, suddenly, their vision turns completely white.

The next moment, we were in the forest.

Looking around, a magnificent sand castle had been built right behind us.

We had to protect this one while destroying the enemy's castle, I supposed. "Sukun, look over there."

Senyuu pointed at the sky, and when I turned to look, a crystal-like hexahedron was floating in the air.

And then, words appeared on it.

"Five, four, three, until the start of the first match."

It seemed to be a substitute for a blackboard or monitor. "Alright, let's begin." "Two, one--zero." The first match had started.
