9 - This World

Yuuto felt a surge of excitement over the beaten transfer student. 'Now... Why shouldn't I kill him?' His excitement fused with Hiroki's anger as he picked up a nearby rock. He raised it high, arm fully extended, teeth clenched, aiming for the back of the transfer student's head. He roared as he swung his arm down.

"W-wait... This... This is too much!" Nao noticed Yuuto's intense gaze and where he was aiming. Panic washed over her, cold sweat trickling down her face. "H-HEY, HE'S ALREADY PARALYZED FOR LIFE, HIROKI! YOU WON! HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ON HIS OWN ANYMORE! THIS IS GOING TOO FAR!" Rise yelled, watching his next move.

Yuuto halted just before striking the transfer student's head, the image of Rise, Nao, and Rise's admirer coming into view.

'...Juvie, Yuuto... Juvie... Calm down,' he thought, his muscles gradually relaxing. He glanced at the beaten transfer student, seeing him unconscious and immobile.

'I already overdid it by crushing his groin. He may look like a mature man, but he's just a kid. A shitty kid, but a kid nonetheless.'

'Why didn't I stop after breaking his back? I could have ended it there, but I let him catch me, like a dumbass high on energy drinks.'

Rise's male friend and the other beaten seniors on the ground clutched their crotches, looking away from the transfer student.

'Even without the groin hit, he's paralyzed from the waist down now with a broken back. He won't ever use his legs, let alone his dick again,' Yuuto thought, exhaling deeply.

'And this isn't some miracle fighting manga where a Chinese martial artist can un-vegetable people with 4000-year-old sugar water and love. I made him a cripple for life. Fortunately, I can still pass this off as self-defense and avoid prison. That wouldn't have been possible if I had hit his head just now,' he thought, looking at the school building and noticing several security cameras pointed at the group.

"...Phew," he muttered, his grip weakening as the rock slipped from his hand and fell to the ground. He breathed heavily, staring down at the giant's body before him.

One of the seniors pulled out a phone, anxiously calling for an ambulance.

Yuuto weakly turned his head toward the senior whose arm he had dislocated. 'At least they have some sense in this manga world... But I can't go to a hospital just yet!'

"This guy... didn't do it!" Rise murmured in relief, her body loosening as she peed herself.

Yuuto raised his gaze, locking eyes with Nao. She gulped and froze in place. 'I still owe that sellout whore an eyepoke... I'll rip her eye out, even if it's the last thing I do... Somehow, I'll pass it off as self-defense too...!' Yuuto thought, his mind spiraling as he stumbled towards them.

The male student immediately fled. "M-monster!" he screamed as he ran off the school grounds.

'That pathetic bastard!' Rise raged internally as she watched her friend run away.

Rise got to her soaked feet and started dragging Nao away, her eyes locked on Yuuto. "H-hurry, he looks like he's going to kill us!" she urged as Yuuto staggered toward them.

Nao's mind was blank as she stared at Yuuto while being dragged away.

'Damn it, my vision's all messed up. I can't tell if they're gone... I'm losing strength...' Yuuto thought as he collapsed, hitting the ground just after Nao and Rise escaped the school grounds. The sound of sirens echoed in the distance.

'Wait, there's still faculty in.... the school. No way no one heard us. How come... no teacher came out..... to stop us...' Yuuto thought as his consciousness faded to black.

Three days passed. The transfer student had indeed been crippled. Even if his manhood could be repaired, he no longer had feeling in the area.

The seniors tried to twist the story, putting all the blame on Hiroki. However, an anonymous tip, along with footage revealing the truth, exposed them. The seniors were found guilty and suspended.

As for the transfer student, paramedics discovered a bag of white powder on him. Upon examination, it was identified as an experimental aphrodisiac drug, a potent one that alters the brain's chemical structure. He was arrested and brought into custody for further investigations, as this kind of drug was the first of its kind.

When questioned, Nao claimed she wanted to stop the transfer student but couldn't. Rise and her male admirer backed her story. She then lied, stating that she and the transfer student hadn't been in physical contact.

As for Hiroki (Yuuto), who was thought to have several internal injuries and bleeding on the way to the hospital, the examination revealed that his condition wasn't as severe as initially believed.

His sister returned from her trip, explaining her absence on that day. During the three days Yuuto was unconscious, his mother stayed by his side, never sleeping.

In those three days, Yuuto's recovery was noted in medical records. It was unclear how his body healed so quickly. All they needed now was for him to wake up.

Yuuto regained consciousness in the middle of the night. The first thing he saw was the clock on the counter beside his bed.

"Three days, huh...?" he murmured as he turned his gaze to the other side, noticing Kaede, sitting on a chair and resting her head on the bed. Bags just below her eyes.

He looked at her, deep in thought.

'This world really is an NTR world,' he concluded. 'How else can a mother, who stays with her child in the hospital like this, be the same person who sends that child her own sex tape, and moans about being someone's cum dumpster before being a loving mother?'

'...There is no logical explanation. None at all,' he thought, looking solemnly at her sleeping form.

He gazed at his small hand.

'Even though this kid is just a pathetic, selfish wimp, he doesn't deserve to live in a world where this stuff is normal.' He clenched his fist.

'I may have taken down veiny turd, but I'm still in this NTR manga world. Does this mean there's more work to be done? That this isn't over yet?' he pondered as he got out of bed, careful not to wake Kaede. He dragged the IV stand attached to his forearm and walked to the bathroom.

After relieving himself, he looked at his reflection in the mirror.

'All those bruises... almost entirely gone. Just a bit of swelling here and there, but mostly healed... in just three days? Is that just how his body works? Or does it have something to do with me transmigrating to this world?' He touched his face where his injuries had been, noticing his black eye had completely vanished.

'Maybe this hospital is just that good, huh.' He let out a small chuckle.

'This isn't a dream. I'm really here. So, if I'm here to stay...'

He glanced at his hair.

'I'm gonna do it not looking like a failed lab experiment. The hair's obviously dyed... I'll dye it black again,' he noted, seeing black roots showing through.

'Given his father and sister were blonde, it makes sense for Hiroki to be blonde too... But he had dark hair all along? Hmm... I'll think about that later.' He then glanced at his piercings. '...These have to go. They must be important to this kid since they kept them on even in the hospital.'

He casually removed the piercings from his ear.

'But they're not important to me. They're in the way.'

'And... More than anything...' he thought, looking at his thin body.

"I need to bulk the fuck up."
