[Ding, the Mistress system has been activated; would you like to bind yourself to it?]
Miyano Akemi felt bewildered. A voice echoed in her mind, and she was startled by it. What was this bizarre occurrence, and why did it keep reverberating in her mind?
She whispered to Shiho, "Did you hear something? Was I imagining things? "
"No, sister; I heard nothing," Shiho replied, glancing around carefully. The nearby tables were empty except for that Police Officer Fujiwara Takuya, who sat alone a short distance away.
But Takuya was silently eating.
[I am the system, designed to train you into a qualified mistress and ensure your reach your peak.]
The voice reappeared, startling Akemi further.
Akemi thought she must be imagining things. What did it mean to be a 'qualified mistress'? Becoming one was out of the question, especially if it meant losing her boyfriend.
"System," she whispered in her mind, "can I refuse? I already have a boyfriend and will never consider being a mistress."
Having never encountered such a system, she understandably declined to be bound by it. The idea of being a mistress seemed ridiculous, especially considering the potential repercussions.
[Ding. Host refused binding; penalty imposed: your younger sister Miyano Shiho will choke to death while drinking water]
Akemi's sister, sitting close by, suddenly began choking on seemingly ordinary water, which stunned Akemi. Unable to regain her breath, she coughed incessantly.
"Shiho, are you alright?" Akemi asked, freaking out about what she saw.
No way, is that true? Was it using her own sister to coerce her into binding with the system?
[Are you sure you wish to bind yourself as a mistress? If you successfully bind to the system, Miyano Shiho will not choke on water.]
Akemi showed some reluctance. Using her sister to manipulate her was a cruel and excessive abuse of power. Yet, she couldn't bear to see her sister suffer.
"Bind me to the system now," Akemi urged.
[Binding successful; penalty cancelled. Miyano Shiho will recover from choking right away.]
Everyone nearby breathed a collective sigh of relief as Miyano Shiho recovered instantly, as though nothing had ever been wrong.
The restaurant staff, previously anxious about her, breathed a collective sigh of relief. The thought of her choking to death there had them worried; it could severely damage their business.
The system's ability to manipulate situations with uncanny precision was striking to Akemi. She was wary but also intrigued by this mysterious entity.
"I'm fine," said Shiho, "I just choked accidentally but am okay now." , her face flushed and voice strained from prolonged choking. Her lungs felt as though they were on fire from such an ordeal.
[Ding! Scanning indicates a high-quality man with a girlfriend near you. You are instructed to initiate contact with Fujiwara Takuya, expressing admiration and completing this task will earn you a reward. Should you fail, your sister will be hit by a car.]
Akemi was furious. She had the same idea as Kisaki Eri: she wanted to interrogate the system and uncover its secrets.
Could the system stop bringing up her sister all the time?
[Please initiate: say you don't need a status but want to be with him—give out your business card.]
Akemi took the system's advice; she had to do something before her sister faced even more dire consequences.
"By the way, who is Fujiwara Takuya?" she asked casually, turning her attention toward the police inspector sitting nearby.
[He's right here! Inspector of the First Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department – extremely intelligent and powerful with an IQ and combat prowess to match. He solved seven cases in half a month and has inherited a famous trust fund.]
Takuya modestly downplayed his accomplishments but was pleased about it. The fact that he'd recently cracked a nineteen-year-old serial murder case made Akemi all the more interested in his reputation.
Akemi looked at him, remembering recent news reports of his police successes. With her sister there, she thought it best to talk to him.
"Waiter," she said firmly, "bill please."
Gathering her courage, Akemi walked towards Takuya, flowers from the table clutched in her hand, after taking a deep breath.
A wave of confusion washed over Shiho as she watched her sister leave.
She had no clue what it meant, or if it was all some trick.
"Officer Fujiwara," Akemi said, blushing slightly but determined to confess her feelings, "I like you very much. Would you be willing to be my boyfriend?"
Akemi felt embarrassed and blushed as she spoke; she was an adult after all!
"I'm sorry, I already have a girlfriend," Takuya politely refused.
Shiho's eyes widened in surprise. Her sister had confessed her feelings to another man — someone who wasn't her current boyfriend Moroboshi Dai (Akai Shuichi).
Shiho knew Akemi well but never imagined such a side of her.
'I have someone at home; but I also seek someone outside,' thought Shiho, noting Takuya's handsome appearance and his status as a policeman. Perhaps his appearance tempted her sister?
Akemi felt momentarily flustered and embarrassed by the refusal.
[Tell him: 'I don't want any status; I just wish to be with you'—and give out your business card.]
Seeing Akemi floundering for words, Takuya intervened and guided her through the system.
"…."
Akemi was mortified by the system's insistent advice. It would kill that fu*cking system one day!
"I like you! I don't need a proper title and just want to be with you; here is my number. Please call if you ever require anything."
Akemi left her phone number, feeling too embarrassed. She turned and walked away.
