“Gyaaaaaaaah…!!!!!!”
– lololol
– Nacchan is raging lol
– Finally got your head on straight? lol
– In the end, you actually made it to 10 in a row lol
– I can’t believe it was live rounds 10 times in a row lololol
– I told you not to do Russian roulette with an automatic pistol lol
– lololol
– An automatic pistol? lol
This makes no sense.
This is seriously impossible!?
Sure, maybe losing 10 times in a row and ending up in last place each time could happen.
But, but!
“Starting with a live bullet every single time for 10 times straight is way too mean…!!!”
Screaming at the top of my lungs with a “byaaaak,” I gasped for air.
Hah, hah, sniff…
Calm down, calm down. It’s only a game.
It’s nothing but a game—
“Loser~♡”
“Grr…”
“Nacchan, you’ve ranked lower than me for 10 rounds in a row now, huh?”
“H-How dare you raise your voice so much when you haven’t even gotten first place once…!”
I shot back desperately at Inari, who was flashing me a smug, irritating grin.
Th-That’s right! I’ve been first before, you know!?
Even if you multiply Inari’s first-place count by infinity, you end up with zero!
Inari is nothing but a loser in this era!
But, of course, my words didn’t get through to Inari at all.
“Heeeh~? People who’ve been below me for 10 rounds in a row don’t really have a say, do they~?”
“Grr… Grrrrr…!!!!”
– lol
– No matter what Nacchan says, she’s getting ignored lol
– Nacchan, you’ve lost this fight…
– Nacchan’s totally defeated lol
– Has Inari ever beaten Nacchan this thoroughly before? lol
– Inari wins! Inari wins! Inari wins! Inari wins! Inari wins!
What’s all this about winning? Ugh, ugh, ugh!!
Toya, who’s usually on my side, couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing, too.
I mean, I guess anyone would, but it still felt like betrayal.
…Yeah, in the end, my only ally is Koyuki—
“Pffft, pfffhahaha…!”
“….”
—Or so I thought!
Seeing how delighted she was, I pouted.
Even if your twin just lost 10 times in a row, couldn’t you at least pretend to be a little sad?
But Koyuki found the whole thing hilarious.
Yeah, it was just plain fun for her.
– Yucchan is enjoying herself the most, seeing Nacchan suffer lol
– Nobody’s happier about Nacchan’s struggles than Yucchan lolol
– By the way, doesn’t that mean Yucchan just got 10 wins in a row too?
– Now that you mention it, yeah lol
– Because Nacchan got cursed by Inari, Yucchan ended up winning 10 times… lololol
– Oh boy… lol
I could practically feel the listeners letting their imaginations run wild.
At this rate, they’ll catch on! Or maybe it’s too late…
I’ve already dropped a ton of hints, so it might not matter anymore.
Officially, we say it’s not like that, but unofficially, everyone knows.
That’s the relationship Natsu and Yukitoki have now.
“I’m gonna pout.”
“Well, pouting Natsu is just so cute, let’s leave her be~”
“Hey!!”
“‘Hey!!’? That’s kinda harsh toward a guest, don’t you think, Natsu?”
Clenching my tiny fists, I glared at Koyuki, who had switched into her mischievous-little-devil mode.
Ugh, I want to thump her on the head!
She got first place 10 times in a row thanks to me taking the brunt of Inari’s curse!
‘…But come to think of it, isn’t it kind of strange?’
“Why did I get cursed, but— mmph!?”
“Hahaha… Natsu! You’ve got something on your mouth!”
Koyuki suddenly clamped a hand over my mouth.
I knew exactly what I was about to say, so I didn’t push her away.
Th-Thank goodness…
There’s a big difference between listeners figuring it out on their own and me actually saying it.
I was lucky Koyuki guessed what I was about to say and stopped me. If those words had made it on-air… Ugh, I get dizzy just thinking about it.
“So, how about it? Want to keep going, Nacchan?”
“Like I’d ever end the stream on a 10-game losing streak!”
“I figured~♪ With that in mind, this time I’ve prepared a special dose of Toya’s super luck—”
“Whoa?! Quit clinging! Don’t hug me! Don’t rub your cheek on mine!”
“Aww, but it’s your fault for being criminally cute, Natsu!”
– So Nacchan’s cuteness really is on a criminal level, huh…
– In that case, life sentence it is lol
– Now she’ll never be able to escape Toya’s arms for the rest of her life lol
– Isn’t she already inescapably trapped?
– I wanna hug Nacchan like crazy too… lol
Hey, you guys, quit watching and help me out here!?
I pleaded for help, trapped in Toya’s arms like a cuddly plushie, but it was pointless.
Having found a replacement target, Inari didn’t separate Toya from me; she pulled Koyuki into her own arms instead.
What is she, a kangaroo? Aren’t they uncomfortable doing that?
“Ah, now that we’re here, how about doing a 2 vs. 2 team battle?”
“Sounds good, Toya’s in!”
Me in Toya’s arms, Koyuki in Inari’s arms.
Feeling like a baby opossum tucked into its mother’s pouch, I let out a sigh.
I actually wanted to cap things off by boldly taking first place among four players…
‘But well…’
This might not be so bad.
Suddenly, our free-for-all turned into a team match.
I was a little disappointed we couldn’t end with a neat first-place finish, but hey, games are meant to be fun, right?
“This time, I’ll make sure you die on your first shot again, Nacchan~♪”
“Hmph, it won’t go that way this time!”
My gaze locked with Inari’s, sparks flying between us.
A different kind of intensity from a free-for-all.
Sure, I had the humiliation of losing ten times in a row, but when I team up with Toya, I’m practically invincible.
Like someone as lowly as Inari can handle us—don’t make me laugh!
And so—
““““—Duel!!””””
[1000¥]
– “Duel,” huh? Lolol
We only ever really click when it comes to weird stuff like this.
Well, that’s what being friends is all about, I guess.
[Nacchan is super mad lolol]
> [(Nacchan shrieking “Gyaaaah!” .MVI)
> Nacchan’s never screamed like that before lol
> Honestly, I feel bad for her, but she’s so cute it hurts lol
└ (Reply) [I thought “nah, it won’t reach 10 losses,” but then it really happened lol]
└ [So the fox deity’s curse was real, huh? lolol]
└ [I saved Nacchan’s scream as my morning alarm.]
└ └ [That scream might actually wake you up nicely lol]
└ └ [Might as well use it as my ringtone… lol]
└ └ [Don’t go bothering people with that lol]
└ └ [This one’s lost it lolol]
└ └ [I don’t leave the house, and the only calls I get are ads or scams, so whatever.]
└ └ […Now I feel sad.]
└ └ [Go outside sometimes, will ya?]
└ [I want to have a kid like Nacchan.]
└ └ [If it’s a kid like Nacchan, I could have a million of them.]
└ └ [A million, huh? lolol]
└ [I just had a baby girl, she’s got black hair, but I hope she grows up as cute as Nacchan. (laugh)]
└ └ [Congrats!]
└ └ [Wait, you gave birth yourself?!]
└ └ [It hurt a lot, but once I saw her, the pain was nothing—she’s so precious.]
└ └ [Now you have your very own “Nacchan” at home. Congrats!]
[The smug Fox God]
> [(Has never taken first place yet, but is thrilled that she’s consistently ranked above Nacchan for 10 rounds. .MVI)
> Inari’s ear movements look so real.
> She’s such an airhead, but if she were here right now, I’d probably be petting those ears all day lol]
└ (Reply) [She may be an airhead, but she’s nice…]
└ └ [She’s… nice?]
└ └ [Usually nice people don’t cast curses on others lol]
└ └ [And a curse that kills you 10 times in a row at that…]
└ └ [She didn’t actually want them dead though lolol]
└ [She’s top-level at teasing people lol]
└ └ [Refined from bickering with Toya all the time lol]
└ └ [Nacchan ended up completely losing in both the game and everything else lol]
└ [I have a feeling Nacchan might cry soon, but I also kinda want to see her crying face… and I hate myself for it…]
└ └ [I want to see Nacchan crying, too.]
└ └ [lolol]
└ [Those fluffy ears… I tried touching cat ears once and got bitten…]
└ └ [My dog doesn’t bite me, though lol]
└ └ [I want a dog, too.]
└ └ [I want a fox lol]
[Pouting Natsu and Toya running toward her]
> [(Toya hugging Natsu tightly .MVI)
> Ehehe…
> I mean, at this point, it’s hard to call them just normal friends; there’s no distance between them at all lolol
> How do I put this… they feel more like family now?]
└ (Reply) [What kind of family do you mean?]
└ └ [Obviously big sister and little sister…]
└ └ [But that’s not actually what you’re thinking, is it? lol]
└ └ [That’s a secret lol]
└ └ [You little… lolol]
└ [Inari’s hugging Yucchan too lol]
└ └ [Now that I see it, they look really alike lolol]
└ [Nacchan’s cuteness is definitely on a criminal level.]
└ └ [I want to be locked up in the same cell as that criminal-level cuteness…]
└ └ [Hey, don’t you dare do anything weird to Nacchan (laugh)]
└ [They look like two pairs of people carrying around their own pets lol]
└ └ [Are we talking about the fox and the devil?]
└ └ [We’re talking about the snow rabbit and the snow ibis, right?]
└ └ [Let’s just say it’s an angel-devil vs. fox-ibis rivalry lol]
└ └ [Now you mention it, it really does look like a rival showdown lolol]
