"So, Natsukawa-san, do you still have any objections to my rejection?" Renz didn't forget to twist the knife for Masuzu Natsukawa. With the facts laid bare, what objections could she possibly have?
"I won't bother you again," Masuzu Natsukawa stated firmly. Being harassed by male students had annoyed her, prompting her to seek a "fake boyfriend" to ward off those persistent admirers. Now, she found herself in the same position as those boys. After understanding the situation fully, she couldn't bring herself to be that shameless.
"But why didn't you tell me this that day?" she asked, curiosity getting the better of her.
"Because I wasn't married yet," Renz explained.
"Eh, eh, eh? So, Renz-kun went straight to the district office to sign the certificate right after confessing yesterday?" Chika Fujiwara exclaimed, her voice rising in shock. A public confession? A marriage certificate signed on the spot? Kaguya Shinomiya's mind immediately conjured up the scene. This couple was intense! So decisive?
"That's right," Renz nodded. "Signed the certificate on the spot."
"So, were you two already a couple for many years before getting married?" Masuzu Natsukawa couldn't help but ask. Her question was sharp, aimed at confirming her suspicions. She had noticed Renz's disciplined behavior at school—he avoided girls. If her observation proved correct, it would suggest that Renz's actions weren't due to "gynephobia" or anything similar, but rather a desire to maintain distance from girls.
"Childhood sweethearts?" Chika Fujiwara mused, recalling the trope from romance manga.
"No," Renz shook his head. "But we've known each other for a long time.
"Then it's a fated encounter!" Chika Fujiwara interjected, throwing out another professional term. "But if you're not childhood sweethearts, you could only have known each other for a year or two at most. If you married that quickly, isn't the progress a bit too fast?"
"By the way, Renz-kun, how many children are you planning to have?" Fujiwara's mind jumped to another topic.
"As for children, at least four," Renz held up four fingers. "More than that isn't out of the question either."
"You've already discussed having children? This progression is completely off!" Miyuki Shirogane added, bewildered.
"Speaking of which, I think I heard something quite shocking on the phone just now," Masuzu Natsukawa recalled a phrase from the conversation. Feigning "shock," she asked, "Are you two already living together?!"
As a schemer, Masuzu believed this phrase was just Renz's partner asserting her ownership with "fierce words." Actually living together so soon was too early. Many couples enjoyed the honeymoon phase, but cohabitation was the true test. Living together sparked countless problems—unfamiliar eating habits, differing routines. It was said that the breakup rate for couples living together was alarmingly high. Those who couldn't handle it were eliminated.
Masuzu Natsukawa's stance as an anti-romance advocate was rooted in her upbringing. Her father, a successful entrepreneur, had abandoned her mother for another woman, a woman who married him solely for his wealth. Her stepmother and father were both fully aware of their transactional relationship but tacitly agreed to it. Raised in such an environment and educated in elite institutions, Masuzu, while outwardly gentle, secretly loathed morally corrupt men. She absolutely disapproved of any couple.
She was a devout member of the FFF Brigade. Pure to the extreme! She had approached Renz because he rejected the "peeping plan" and maintained a good image at school—ideal to fend off external interference. But now, this guy was the ultimate demon lord, the strongest high school student, eclipsing all "normies."
"We've been living together for quite a while," Renz casually revealed, noticing the doubt in Masuzu's voice. After a brief pause, he understood the situation.
In the previous call, Renz had been passive, allowing Erina to control the conversation, which made it seem like a one-sided declaration of love. In truth, Renz was annoyed by Erina's bold and "embarrassing" words. Despite knowing those flirtatious remarks shouldn't be spoken aloud, she insisted. After speaking, she probably couldn't handle the embarrassment and hid under a blanket, leaving Renz no chance to respond.
"Renz-kun, I could hear the affection in your wife's voice on the phone," Masuzu commented meaningfully. "Don't betray your wife's love. Don't be a two-timer." Her words were sharp and aimed to provoke. If she were confronting a true two-timer, he'd likely be flustered, looking around nervously. It was a targeted remark.
But Renz, unfazed, remained calm.
Little girl,
Who are you trying to mess with?
Renz mused, knowing full well he was someone who stood in the sunlight. Petty "sarcasm" held no weight for him. "On my wedding day, I'll send you an invitation."
"After all, we're classmates."
"And when my child's full-month celebration comes around, I'll send you an invitation too."
He wasn't afraid. Their silent battle continued.
Kaguya Shinomiya, caught in the crossfire, couldn't help but think about weddings and children. She truly loved innocent children, and if they were her own, she would cherish them even more. The idea made Kaguya both envious and hopeful. Would anyone ever confess to her? Would anyone ever sign a marriage certificate with her?
Masuzu Natsukawa, facing this counterattack, found herself once again unable to make sense of the situation. The phone call had painted Renz as a "scumbag" who reveled in ambiguity, accepting others' affections without reciprocating, unpredictable and elusive. But after the call, he had transformed into a champion of justice. This contradiction piqued Masuzu's curiosity.
Just what kind of relationship did Renz and his partner have?
Masuzu Natsukawa had a bad feeling. Could these two be a couple specialized in annihilating the FFF Brigade?
