Let's Play A Game!*

Both Shiruko and Zenzai burst into laughter, their amusement ringing out in unison. "Of course not!" Shiruko replied, waving her hand dismissively. 

"It's just... Akane is still a naïve girl. If she ever found out about this," she gestured vaguely at the three of them, "she'd probably be traumatized." 

A sigh escaped her as she rested her chin on her hand. "I still care about my daughter, you know?"

"Hm..." Haruto mused, his confidence returning as a small smirk curled his lips. 

"Don't worry. I've already convinced a very stubborn girl to accept that I have other women," he continued, his voice filled with unwavering confidence. 

"Akane will be the same."

His certainty came from the system—a tool that made every target fall head over heels for him, consumed by thoughts of him and him alone.

'Even Asuka didn't hate me after her son's death,' he mused.
