Chapter 204 - 204: Service Club, Yui's Mom mind in Shock!
"Yumiko, you're not fond of the Service Club, are you?"
Yui's mother, in Yui's body, posed this question to Yumiko, testing the waters.
If Yumiko disliked it, there had to be a reason—maybe she could glean some useful information from it.
"Ugh."
At the mention of the Service Club, Yumiko let out a disgusted huff.
Placing her hands on her hips, she snapped,
"Of course I don't like it—staying in that place is totally uncomfortable."
Because the Service Club belonged to Yukinoshita Yukino.
Just thinking of Yukinoshita's perpetually icy face put her in a sour mood, let alone having to hang out with her. If her anger flared, they would probably clash. Yumiko knew full well that her real issue was not liking Yukinoshita; Yui's mother had no idea.
"!!!"
Hearing the clear animosity in Yumiko's voice, Yui's mother tensed inwardly.
As expected, that Service Club is probably no good!

She clenched her fists.
"I have to check if that club is safe!"
She didn't want her daughter involved in some shady activity, possibly getting bullied.
"Yumiko, could you come with me to take a look? I'm begging you!"
Though she felt embarrassed at her age, Yui's mother forced herself to ask. She needed to get a good look.
"You..."
Seeing "Yui" cling to her so childishly, Yumiko felt a vein throb on her forehead.
"Fine, fine, I'll go with you—but don't expect me to speak up for you or anything!"
"Thank you, Yumiko!"
Yui's mother broke into a yamato nadeshiko-like smile.
"???"
That ladylike smile felt alien to Yumiko. Since when did Yui go from a cutesy vibe to this refined style?
They headed toward the Service Club together. Once they saw no one else in the hallway, Yumiko asked casually,
"So, Yui, about Rei Ao—have you figured out what you're gonna do?"
"Hm?"
Yui's mother froze in confusion. Rei Ao? Who's that? It sounded like a guy's name.
"!!!"
She recalled how lately her daughter had been acting like a girl in love.
Could it be...?
Yumiko saw "Yui" go silent, guessing that she was still indecisive. Feeling impatient, she prodded:
"C'mon, Yui, is this something that needs so much time to think through?"
"If you can accept that Rei Ao-kun's gonna be shared among others, then be bold and go confess. If you can't accept that, then quit thinking about him."
"???"
Yui's mother's eyes widened. Shared?
She wondered if she'd misheard. She forced a smile:
"Y-Yumiko, you're joking, right? Haha..."
"Hah?"
Yumiko spoke seriously:
"Since when did I joke around? Didn't you see it this morning? Rei Ao already did it with Mumei and four others—you've got zero opinion about that?"
"???"
Her thoughts churned. She felt short of breath.
It seemed her daughter was in love with some ultimate player?
Examining Yumiko's blond hair and fierce expression, Yui's mother wondered if she was a delinquent ("gyaru"). She'd heard about the messy daily life of teenage delinquents nowadays. Anxiety flared in her; she absolutely didn't want her daughter fooling around with random people and ruining her future.
By reflex, she let go of Yumiko's hand.
"Hm?"
Yumiko frowned.
"Yui, you're acting really off today."
"Huh? I-Am I? Haha..."
Yui's mother gave a strained laugh, then turned her gaze resolutely on the door bearing the Service Club sign. They had arrived.
"Sigh."
Yumiko sighed:
"Why are you still hesitating this much over that? If you don't make up your mind, Rei Ao-kun's gonna be eaten up by other girls with nothing left for you."
"Uh..."
Yui's mother could only recoil at the idea of multiple girls sharing a guy. She truly couldn't get her head around this "delinquent logic." But the more pressing matter now was the Service Club.
Her eyes grew serious. She wanted to see firsthand what this "Service Club" was actually up to. If it was doing anything illegal, she'd call the cops right away.
Taking a heavy breath like she was about to confront an abyss, she knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"?"
Yui's mother was startled that the voice belonged to a cool-sounding girl, not a boy. Could there be other victims here?
Subconsciously, she labeled Yui (her daughter's body) and this mystery girl as fellow victims.
Clack.
She opened the door. But the chaotic scene she'd imagined didn't appear—she actually breathed a sigh of relief. All she saw was a black-haired girl with icy eyes staring straight at her.
"Yui, you're late."
"!!!"
So this must be the one who messaged her—Yukinoshita Yukino.
She hadn't had time to speak yet when Yumiko cut in irritably:
"Hmph, Yukinoshita, even if you're the Service Club president, you can't just boss Yui around!"
President? Yui's mother paused. So this girl had founded the Service Club? She wondered why a high schooler would create such a mysterious club—things might not be so simple.
Yukinoshita Yukino clearly sensed Yumiko's hostility, but her expression remained unruffled:
"I'm not bossing her. This was something we arranged earlier, and she's late."
"You..."
Yumiko looked ready to lash out again, but Yui's mother didn't want any conflict. She quickly interjected:
"Ahem, Yukinoshita-san, could you please tell me why you called me here?"
"Hm?"
The moment she spoke, Yukinoshita's gaze centered on "Yui."
"Huh? Is...is there something on my face?"
"..."
Yukinoshita fell silent, then shook her head:
"No, it's just I never imagined you would forget about this."
In truth, she was also noting how "Yui" now addressed her as "Yukinoshita-san" instead of "Yukinon." She didn't know why, but decided to respect that choice. Nevertheless, the sudden formality caused an indefinable pang of discomfort in her chest. She steadied herself:
"She'll be here soon."
"She?"
Yui's mother and Yumiko both wondered who else was coming. Not long after, the "she" Yukinoshita mentioned arrived: Kawasaki Saki. Having thought it over and wrapped up her personal matters, Saki finally made her decision.
"Yukinoshita, I want to learn the truth."
Sitting across from Yukinoshita, Kawasaki Saki spoke solemnly. She wanted to understand this world's real nature.
"..."
Yukinoshita Yukino gazed at her for some time, then let out a tiny sigh:
"If that's what you want, I'll share with you whatever Rei Ao said I can."
Miura Yumiko silently sized up Kawasaki, perhaps discerning something. But Yui's mother stood there, baffled. There's that name "Rei Ao" again. They all look so serious—what exactly are they talking about?
Yukinoshita resumed:
"This world isn't...ordinary."
One sentence, and Yui's mother found herself listening attentively. As Yukinoshita explained to Kawasaki Saki, Yui's mother heard bizarre knowledge flowing into her ears—man-eating beasts, terrifying demons, etc.
Yukinoshita spoke with earnestness; Kawasaki listened in shock; Yumiko seemed composed, like it was no big deal. Yui's mother merely wondered if they were a bunch of so-called "chuunibyou"—and that "Rei Ao" a scumbag tricking these chuunibyou girls. Maybe her daughter had also turned into a chuunibyou?
But then Kawasaki, remembering firsthand how frightening monsters could be (even if that female spirit/Succubus hadn't tried to eat her, there might be man-eating creatures out there), asked fearfully:
"How do we fight those monsters?"
She was extremely alert now, having witnessed such things herself.
Yukinoshita answered:
"Some people in this world have the special powers needed to deal with them."
"Then... Yukinoshita-san, can you teach me?"
Kawasaki pressed anxiously.
"I'm sorry; I don't have that kind of power."
Yukinoshita gave a helpless shake of her head. She'd considered acquiring abilities to protect herself, but as an ordinary human, she only knew one potential way—through Rei Ao, via a "trade." She refused to go that route.
"I see..."
Kawasaki Saki looked crestfallen but still held out hope:
"Then do you know anyone else who does?"
"..."
Yukinoshita unconsciously glanced at Miura Yumiko. In their group, she was the only one.
"Well, yes. I do."
Yumiko raised her hand, golden light gathering at her fingertips. She aimed at the tabletop:
"Zztt!!!"
A beam of light shot forth. Everyone stiffened, their minds rocked, as they saw that ray punch a hole through the desk.
"Eh?!"
Yui's mother sprang to her feet, staring in shock at the desk, which now had a hole:
"Th-this... How is that possible?"
A moment ago, she'd assumed it was all teenage fantasies or "chuunibyou." Yet they'd just demonstrated something real. Her mind went blank—so it was all true.
