[135] Despairing in a World Full of Big Busts

Chapter 135: Despairing in a World Full of Big Busts

In this game, you can experience going to school, working, getting married, having children, and even dying.

Holding the game box, Komachi's eyes wandered as she seemed to contemplate something.

"Onii-chan, I'll go call the sisters to join us."

"Sure."

Hachiman nodded. His initial intention in buying this game was for everyone to play together. He then turned to the Yukinoshita sisters.

"Miss Yukinoshita and Haruno, if you're interested, you can join us too."

"A simulation game of life? Sounds interesting. I want to play. Yukino, why don't you join too?" Hearing Hachiman's suggestion, Haruno became intrigued.

"Well... alright, I'll participate too."

After a brief moment of consideration, Yukino agreed. In her sixteen years of life, everything had been orchestrated by her family. The prospect of experiencing a wholly different life intrigued her.

"Shizuka, would you like to join us?"

Observing her sister's consent, Haruno directed her attention to Shizuka.

"Me? I'll pass. You kids go ahead and play."

It was evident that Shizuka had no interest in this game. She declined, opting for another sip of beer. However, Yukino's subsequent words caused her to pause.

"Are you sure you won't play? I just checked, and in this game, you can get married. Shizuka, don't you want to experience what it's like to get married?" Haruno's lips curled into a mischievous smile.

"Well, this..."

"Alright... fine, I'll join. But let's be clear, I'm not doing it to experience marriage or anything."

At this moment, Shizuka, in a rare display, revealed a slightly tsundere attitude.

"Sure, not to experience marriage."

Seeing her in this light, Haruno couldn't help but chuckle.

Meanwhile, the girls who had been playing by the beach returned.

Under Komachi's persuasion, nearly all of them joined the game, including Leonora, who couldn't resist her curiosity.

Thankfully, the game board Hachiman had purchased was sufficiently spacious to accommodate everyone, making it possible to play with such a large group.

After arranging their sunshades and setting up the game board, they all gathered around.

"Hmph, if it weren't for Komachi-chan coming to find me, I wouldn't be playing this game with you," Erina proclaimed, showcasing her tsundere tendencies.

Despite her words, a subtle smile of contentment found its way onto her lips. Since Alice had departed for Northern Europe, Erina had few companions apart from Hisako. This sight of numerous people playing a game together was a rare occurrence for her.

"Okay, okay! We're grateful to have Miss Erina's presence here," Hachiman replied with a smile. He had grown accustomed to her tsundere behavior long ago.

Hachiman found the straightforward nature of tsundere characters more appealing than those who were less forthright.

As they took their seats, Hachiman, as the host, began introducing the Yukinoshita sisters to the other girls.

Haruno was somewhat taken aback upon learning that Erina and Alice hailed from the Nakiri family. The Nakiri family, one of Japan's Four Conglomerates, stood as an immense entity far beyond the Yukinoshita family's league. It was surprising that Hachiman had such strong connections with these two young ladies.

Despite the Yukinoshita family's respectable standing, with their father serving as a county councilman and their construction business, they still paled in comparison to conglomerates like the Nakiri family. Haruno adjusted her demeanor, mindful not to utter anything that might upset the Nakiri family's young ladies, as it could have severe consequences for the Yukinoshita family.

On the other side, Yukino felt out of place. Among the girls gathered there, with the exception of Komachi and Kokoro, who were both younger and petite, the rest were older and taller than her. It was as if she were facing a range of mountains, from small hills to towering peaks, with Mount Everest in the mix. In their presence, she felt like nothing more than a slightly raised mound of dirt.

As Hachiman introduced the group, Yukino learned they were all approximately her age, with Erina and Alice even a year younger. Yet, their physical attributes made Yukino's modest figure seem inconspicuous. Despair settled in as she navigated this world dominated by well-endowed women.

.......

After a brief rundown of the rules, the game officially commenced.

Hachiman was the first to roll the dice.

"Hey, not bad. I got a five."

With his token in hand, he advanced five spaces, entering the kindergarten section.

Subsequently, everyone took their turns rolling the dice, and by the conclusion of the first round, almost everyone had ventured into the kindergarten zone.

The second round commenced, and once again, Hachiman was the first to roll the dice.

"Three points, triggered an event. Let me check..."

Randomly selecting an event card, Hachiman's expression immediately darkened upon reading it.

"Intentionally lifted a girl's skirt in kindergarten, caught by the teacher, called parents, got a spanking, can't move next turn."

Laughter rippled through the group of girls, and even the usually gentle and graceful Kotonoha couldn't resist displaying a trace of a smile.

"I must say, Hachiman-kun, you've displayed your perverted side since childhood," Utaha quipped with a chuckle.

"Onii-chan, that's disappointing. I can't believe you're this kind of person," Komachi teased, feigning disappointment on her face.

"I'm not! It's just part of the game's scenario," Hachiman retorted, giving Utaha a reproachful look, although he couldn't do much about it.

Dealing with Komachi was a more manageable task.

"From now on, your snacks are reduced by half."

"Eh?! Onii-chan, I'm sorry!"

Well, if she couldn't manage her, she could manage her snacks.

The rest of the group also began rolling the dice. While some triggered additional events, overall, things seemed to be heading in a positive direction as the group smoothly left the kindergarten and entered elementary school.

In the end, Hachiman was the only one left in the kindergarten area.

"I refuse to accept this."

"Oh my, you can only blame your bad luck, Onii-chan. Don't blame others."

Observing Komachi's smug smile, Hachiman felt the urge to grind his teeth.

"You truly are my wonderful sister."
