It's True Love 42 (Patreon)

"As expected, this is... disappointing." Touko wastes no time in trying to crush me, which is expected. What isn't expected, is that she's doing it all with a smile and a kind tone, like she doesn't want to hurt my feelings.

Well, mission successful, because my feelings are not yet hurt. "Disappointment breeds love." My tone is full of confidence, even though I have no goddamn clue what I just said. And... I really don't blame her for being disappointed.

Right now all three of us are eating at some random fast food chain, and I can tell with just one glance that Touko is not a fan of that. It can't be helped though, I understand that her tastes are more refined than Aoko's, but I need a bit more time.

Speaking of Aoko, she interjected. "What's so bad about this place? It's great!" She's on her third burger by the way, and like a true shounen protagonist, she doesn't look like she will stop anytime soon.

Touko chuckles. "Sure, there's nothing wrong with this place..." She looks around. "A date in the mall... going to a fast food chain... a nice and fun date. For teenagers that is." W-wow, you really have no mercy.

And again, she delivers all that with a kind smile. It's a stark reminder that Touko has an Aizen technique to fake charm when she's wearing those glasses of hers... I need to find some way of taking them off.

Though... I don't actually know which one is the real Touko yet, or even if maybe both are. So I should actually probably just ignore the damn things, if she takes them off that's fine, but if she doesn't, that's also fine.

Aoko glares at her. "What's that supposed to mean...?" Since Sensei is seemingly enjoying this, she took offense to her comment. Worry not my beautiful mentor, having the heart of a teen is not always a bad thing. Most of the times it very much is though!

Touko looks away. "N-nothing, just keep enjoying yourself..." After some time, she looks back at her sister. "It doesn't matter if you fall for him after all, as long as I don't at least." True, but it would grant me a massive advantage.

If Aoko or Touko fall for me way before the time is up, they will need to sabotage their sister. That's because they will need me to win, or Aoko's no harem victory prize will screw them over.

Sensei blushes bright red. "S-shut up, of course I won't fall for Yuta! I haven't even considered that as a possibility." That would normally hurt me, but I know you're full of bullshit. "It's just that..." Oh? Sensei will come up with some crazy excuse?

She takes a deep breath. "I don't want to make Yuta lose confidence in himself." She looks at me. "Even if this doesn't work on us, I'm sure Rika and Arcueid really love this type of stuff, so don't feel hurt. Kay, Yuta?" You look like you're loving it too though.

I snort. "Yeah, don't worry Sensei." As if I would have my confidence shook by something so pathetic! "Instead you should be worried about that cop who's sitting close to us." I don't actually think he's gonna do anything, but scaring Sensei is fun.

She immediately tries her best to cover her face. "S-shit, did he see me...?" Even if he did, it probably wouldn't matter. It's not like most cops remember the face of some kidnapper from years ago.

Touko pushes her glasses up. "That doesn't matter Aoko. He might get close to question what two adults are doing with a teenager though." You underestimate the power of sexism. That would only happen if the two of you were guys, and I was a poor cute girl!

Man, I would be just the goddamned cutest. "It's not like anybody has cared so far. People aren't even batting an eye..." I sort of want to plant the idea in Aoko's head that this is considering normal. It won't work on Touko though, she needs... more subtle propaganda.

The glasses wearing redhead takes a sip of her drink. "Probably because they all think we are your aunts or something." We don't look anything alike, but yeah, I doubt most people imagine we are going on a date.

Aoko ignores that last bit of conversation. "So... is it fine for me to stop hiding my face?" The fact that you're hiding your face is just making things worse to be honest. The cop is looking at us like we are the most suspicious people in the world.

Touko nods. "Of course... If something happens I can just mess with his mind. Not everyone is as incompetent as you... or Alice. Seriously, how did she not know something so basic? She's a better mage than me..." This is not the first time I heard the name Alice.

Aoko finally stops covering her face. "You're never gonna let the Soujuurou thing go, are you?" Her face has become even more red. Apparently just the memories of whatever this is can turn Sensei into a perfect tomato.

Now I'm curious though, and this is an easy topic of conversation. "What's with this Soujuurou person? You mentioned him yesterday, Sensei..." She did it through the phone to admonish her sister...

Immediate both siblings gain the smuggest of killer grins, like they truly believe they shall win their rivalry right now, and immediately after it, their faces become pale, as if they believe they shall lose their rivalry right now. This must be a double edged blade.

Touko is the first to swing that sword, a pure smile on her happy face. "He's a boy who used to be completely clueless about the supernatural." She motions to Aoko. "But he stumbled on this idiot... Which means he needed to killed..." Or get his memories erased.

But I can already see what happened. "And knowing Sensei, she refused to do that. After some struggle of course." Ah, I wonder how hot young Sensei was... I wish I could travel through time to perv on her. "But she also has no idea how to make someone forget stuff, so she came up with some ridiculous idea to solve the issue." That's Sensei alright.

Aoko glares at her sister, daring her to respond. Touko is no coward of course, so she does. "You're right on the money. She put a magical dog collar on him and basically turned the poor boy into her and Alice's slave. Well, now he's Alice's husband." Some might argue that there isn't much of a difference.

Still... "Ah, I'm so jealous..." It goes without saying, but being turned into Sensei's dog... What a wonderful dream that would be. Though I would like to eventually turn the tables on her of course.

Sensei glares at me. "You're making a disgusting face Yuta, so stop." I'm sorry, but I just realized there's a guy out there who reached my dreams. I'm not angry at him though, for I now know miracles exist.

Aoko sighs. "But yeah, it was a pretty crazy time... And once we actually found out about how to erase someone's memories, he was already our friend who we didn't want to forget us." As expected, my mento got way too attached.

Touko laughs, she seems to be having fun now that her sister is being bullied. "Yeah, and I'm sure that it wasn't because you were afraid of messing up even such a simple spell." I will now keep it in mind that your favorite hobby is crushing your sister's spirit.

A sad look appears on my teacher's face. "Nah, the scariest part is what Geto would do to us. He was always about protecting normal people or whatever." A weird aura has entered the room, and the reason is obvious.

I remember exactly who Geto is, he's the supposed magical hitler that I could have become if I gained a distate for normal people. No, that isn't exactly it, I would need to feel superior to them to become like him.

But now I need to make Sensei feel comfortable again. "So what did Touko do that was embarrassing? You looked like you had a secret weapon, Sensei." I shall pass the ball back to her court.

Hopefully that's enough to lift her spirits back up, since Touko is now glaring murder at me. This is what people must call equivalent exchange, trading Touko points for Sensei points. Well, I can't let the older sister get too comfortable with her bullying anyways.

Thankfully my strategy works, and a cocky smile appears on Sensei's face. "So Touko, do you need me to tell him, or do you want to do it yourself? Either way you're gonna want to die after it's over." It's that bad!?

Fun times aside though, I will need to eventually ask just who exactly Geto was. It's clear that it's an important topic for Sensei after all, so if I won't progress on her amazing route unless I do!

Touko's eye twitches, it seems this is getting through her Aizen facade. She does eventually smirk. "Well, you see Yuta... Back then I had the wonderful idea of stealing Soujuurou, since he was Aoko's toy. That's all." Y-you... really have no limits, do you?

Aoko's smirk has gotten even more terrifying. Terrifyingly cute of course. "That's not the full story~..." She looks back at me. "Let's just say the Soujuurou incident has gotten a sequel yesterday. And just like the original, it ended with Touko being rejected." I see...

So this Soujuurou guy got to be Sensei's pet, and then got an offer to become Touko's pet... He's my natural enemy for sure, a man who has obtained all that I wish for. Just kidding of course, but it's pretty crazy that Sensei actually put a dog collar on someone.

It's not Touko's turn to blush. "I see that all of these years haven't made you any more mature. There's no reason to babble about this to my future student." There is a reason. It's funny. That's all we need.

Aoko huffs. "I see those glasses aren't doing much today." Oh, so you also know about her Aizen abilities. I guess that's to be expected though. "And are you really talking about maturity? You couldn't steal Soujuurou, so you stole my favorite teacup." For real?

Both of these sisters really are amazing. It's a good thing they're so immature though, it makes it easier for me to succeed. Failure might as well mean death, so I obviously can't pull any punches either.

Touko finally takes off her glasses, putting them on her pocket. She's fully glaring at her sister now. "That was years ago, stop bringing it up every damn time." I wonder if a fight is about to break out.

Aoko squints her eyes in her sister's direction. "Then give me my teacup back." She still has it!? After it has apparently been years!? As expected of an Aozaki, their power level in cuteness is just too high.

Touko pouts. "No." And that discussion ends there, or at least I imagine Touko hopes it does. Seriously what's the big deal with this teacup? Is it a collector's item or something?

Aoko rolls her eyes, though those very same eyes are filled with resolve. "One day..." Sorry Sensei, but I very much doubt you will ever see that teacup again. "By the way Yuta, weird question, but how did you manage to make your stalker sit back on this one?" Oh, so you noticed that Rika and Arcueid aren't around?

I scratch my cheek. "Recently Rika has been okay with not following me around if I'm going on a date. She didn't follow me when I went with Arcueid too." Truly best girl behavior. I imagine she would insist on following me if I was dating someone like Noel-Sensei though.

Aoko, Touko, Arcueid... All of them can protect me from pretty much all threats in this world, so she does feel too worried. Or at least that's what I imagine her thought process is, which means going on a date with a normal girl would be hell. I will apologize to my little sisters one day!

Rika isn't my only stalker though. "And about Arcueid... She's surprisingly understanding. Once I explained her why she couldn't come, she smiled and said she would have some fun with my litt-, with Hisui and Kohaku instead." I don't think Sensei even know who those two are.

However, Arcueid is probably a ticking time bomb. She's probably fine with leaving me for a day or two... but I fully expect her to blow up eventually. That's a problem for future Yuta though, current Yuta is too busy with redhead.

Aoko smiles. "I see, I see... I'm glad everything is going smoothly between the three of you then!" Sensei, I love you... but that's cuck behavior, so don't be so happy at the success of your rivals. Akiha would laugh at you.

Touko raises an eyebrow. "So... what about the third one? How did you convince her to give you some time without her?" The third one? Has Akiha decided that her house shall be the bushes close to me?

I raise an eyebrow to match her. "You're gonna need to give me more details. I'm a pretty popular guy." I guess my little sisters have stalker characteristics too... And so does Senpai. Sorry Senpai, but I can feel you have a dark side.

Touko seems confused, and she doesn't even try to hide it. "The... blond one. She's pretty young and... dresses sort of like a little princess." Um... Isn't that just Arcueid? I'm drawing a blank to be honest.

My smile disappears. "Sorry, but I can't think of anyone! You're probably getting confused!" I fake the reappearance of my smile! Which is met with their concerned looks. "Ah, shit... I'm getting stalked by a stranger." It should be fine as long as she's cute...?

Aoko pats my shoulder. "Those are the consequences of walking the path you're walking. So listen to your Sensei and give up." Victim blaming!? "Anyways, how do you even know about this stalker, Touko?" Her spy network I assume.

She shrugs. "I have been watching Yuta Okkotsu with my puppets." Oh, so you're my fourth stalker.

Sensei is right, this path attracts weird people.



/////////////////////////////////////////////////



"See...? I called Yuta! I told you she was evil...!" Sensei is evil, she's evil incarnate, she's all the world's evils even. "I mean, c'mon, it was obvious right?" Aoko shouts in my ears, in what she probably thinks is a whisper.

I can only nod. After that however, I send a look of pain to Touko, who shares my despair. "She really is like a teenager going on a date..." Thankfully the older sister does actually genuinely whisper.

Right now, we are all on a cinema, watching a movie Aoko has been looking forward to. It wasn't even my idea to go here by the way, Sensei genuinely insisted... Not that I was against it of course. It's just that I didn't have a clue about the type of demon I was dealing with.

I always knew she never shut up when watching movies with us, but those were private things, without people around us. But now Sensei is slowly raising the killing intent of all the people around us... We might get killed.

Sensei excitedly points at the scream. "Oh! That guys is so handsome! Shame the actor got arrested for grooming." I doubt most people here want that information. That said... there is something special about this.

I can't lie to myself, I don't actually care about bothering all of these people. All I care about is the fact that Sensei is smiling like Christmas has come early. This date has been a great success so far.

Some random woman in front of us gets up, she shushes Sensei of course. I see someone has finally decided to give my future wife a well deserved scolding, and also give me a beautiful sight.

Sensei now looks completely embarrassed. "S-sorry..." She then looks at us. "Why did you guys tell me I was being loud...?" And so she finally actually whispers. That's still sort of annoying though, so please don't do it a lot.

While Touko rolls her eyes, I simply grin in response. I don't know if Sensei understands what I'm trying to say, but she pouts and looks away, looking even more cute. Ah, this woman really is too much...

Before long, Aoko is screaming again. "Hah!? What's with that dumb plot twist!? It makes no sense at all!" Sensei, the only thing that doesn't make sense here is the fact that hey haven't thrown you out of the cinema.

...

"So, I guess I'll see the two of you tomorrow." I grin, it's time to say goodbye, but today was a victory. "By the way, you two should dress nicely for tomorrow." I now have formal clothing, so I no longer fear high class society!

Touko puts her glasses back on, and a smile appears on her face. "I'll be looking forward to it then!" I don't know how she felt about this date, but I'm sure she enjoyed seeing her sister get kicked out of the cinema at least.

Aoko, who's still recovering from the sheer embarassment inflicted upon her, takes some time to respond. "I... don't really own any super expensive clothing." I figured that would be the case.

I send her a smile. "Don't worry, we can meet up earlier so I can buy some for you." I'm rich after all! "I'll send you and Touko the details through my cellphone later." Ah, I can't wait to dress up Sensei!

While Touko simply nods, Sensei pouts. "Geez, I don't know how to feel about wasting your money like that..." It's okay, it's actually the churches money! And trust me, they definitely want me to date Aoko Aozaki.

I mean, currently I'm their secret killing project, so bringing a true magician and a great magus to their side will definitely be met with approval. Or at least I hope it will, but it doesn't really matter, since I'm willing to betray God for Sensei!

I put a hand on Sensei's cheek. "Don't worry... Any cash used on you certainly isn't wasted." I would be willing to buy a house for this woman! Sadly she's a super criminal, so I can't really do that... through legal channels. "So just enjoy yourself, Aoko." That's right, I called her by her real name.

Sensei closes her eyes. "Yuta..." And leans in for a kiss... For real!? Is she's really going for a kiss!? I'm totally fine with it of course, but is this massive loser really gonna job on the first goddamn date!? Even I didn't expect that.

Touko pulls her back by the shoulder though, ruining my dreams. "Oi, Aoko, did you go insane?" I think both of you are pretty crazy. Sadly, I'll have to admit that Sensei might just have a few more screws lose than you.

Sensei has achieved the tomato state. "I-I wasn't gonna do anything really!" She glares at me, trying to kill my smirk. "I-I really wasn't it... But I had fun, even if it was platonic fun! Thanks Yuta!" She ends with an embarrassed thumbs up.

Ah, it's like stealing candy from a baby. Or like grooming Rika... Not that I did that, of course.
