Chapter 127: Conquest

—

The next day, nothing special happened in school. Neji knew nothing special would happen in the next two months either.

After classes ended, Neji decided not to go to the dungeons that day.

"Enjoy your time with Rumi," Neji said, stepping in his car. "I don't think she wants me to know about this meeting, so just talk things out amongst yourselves…"

"Okay," Momo said. "But, where are you going? Not going to the other dimension today?"

The window of the car rose as Neji, wearing his round sunglasses, smiled. "Well, I have things to take care of."

The window closed and the car started to move before Momo could say anything.

She stared at the back of the car for a second before getting into her own car and telling her driver to drive to the place where Rumi wished to meet at.

Minutes later, she walked inside the multistory high-class cafe.

"I have a reservation." She said to the manager. "Can you please check it?"

The cashier nodded and told her the table number she was supposed to go to. When she went there, going up a few floors by the elevator, she found Mirko already sitting while gazing outside the see-through glass wall.

Momo stopped for a moment to calm down her nerves and relax the anxiety she felt. She was certainly nervous, meeting the number-6 Pro Hero out in the wild like this. More so, they were probably going to discuss about Neji, which made her more unsettled.

After a while, she walked to the table and smiled at Mirko.

"Hello, Mirko. Nice to meet you."

Mirko smiled too, taking away her gaze from outside. "The pleasure is certainly mine. Thanks for coming here on such short notice. Please take a seat."

Momo did so. "But of course. You are after all my boyfriend's mentor, temporary or not."

Rumi smiled nervously at that, though she quickly hid it.

"Anyway. We can talk over a cup of coffee." She waved her hand as one of the passing waiters who came to them leaned over. "Now, please help yourself, and no need to call me Mirko, just Rumi is fine."

Rumi said, placing her own order and watching Momo nod.

"Alright," Momo said before turning to the waiter and placing her own order.

The waiter went away and came back not so long after that, making sure the famous Pro Hero wasn't dissatisfied.

"Oh, quick service." Momo sounded impressed. "I actually don't come here that often, but this seems like a nice place."

Rumi laughed as she took a sip off her Espresso. "You should check this place out then. Quite a good place, for coffee at least."

Momo humoured her with a giggle, as they continued to talk about random stuff for the next two minutes. Then, Rumi softly put the cup down, her expression calm. Though a person with good eyes would be able to see nervousness hidden under that.

"Let's not beat around the bush. I am not good at that." Rumi said, looking directly at Momo. "…I slept with your boyfriend when he was living with me during his internship."

Momo stayed silent, her expression calm as Rumi waited. She waited until Momo finally spoke, "I see… But how do you expect me to react?"

"..."

"I mean, I don't understand." Momo cleared herself seeing Rumi silent. "Are you complaining that my boyfriend fucked you? Or are you telling me you slept with a high schooler, and are now feeling guilty, which is why you're telling his girlfriend about your crime to lift the guilty weight off your shoulders?"

Rumi's lips thinned at that. She wasn't expecting the little girl to be so direct, more so, so unfazed at the news.

"I…"

"You know, Neji plays around a lot," Momo said. "I have known him for more than three years by now, and I have seen him flirt with hundreds of girls. Amongst them, barely any adult fell for his flirts and slept with him." She continued speaking. "The R-rated Hero Midnight, for example. He's been flirting with her for a while now, but as slutty as she is, she hasn't crossed the line with him."

Seeing Rumi silent, Momo sighed. "I am asking, none of them did it with him. So why did you? Why did you do it with him? And what's your intention behind telling me you slept with him?"

Rumi looked troubled at that, but after a minute of her facial expression changing, she growled and grabbed her own face with her hand. "I can say I did it because he's been living with me for a week, which allowed him to try things on me that he couldn't try on other girls–but that would just be an excuse," Rumi said. "Truthfully, I am ashamed to say this but, I... am attracted to him. He had the chance to do anything he wished for me one night when I was drunk in pleasure. But he didn't touch me…. The next day, it was me who jumped at him."

Momo looked surprised at that. She blinked thrice before Rumi continued her speech.

"And about why I am telling you all this… My guilty heart does play a role, but I just wanted to let you know that I will do it with him again and again, whenever I want. I might sound… very dumb and idiotic right now, but I just wanted to be honest."

Momo stared at her for a long time before her lips curled upwards and she broke out laughing.

Rumi watched her laugh for a long minute with a confused frown. Finally, the girl stopped laughing, wiping tears from the corner of her eyes and sitting straight.

"So, Rumi, did Neji tell you about how I am fine with sharing him with another girl, as long as he loves her?" Momo asked and Rumi slowly nodded. "I was expecting you to say that here, expecting you to ask me to share him with you. But well, you're a proud woman, I guess you just couldn't say it."

Rumi stayed silent at that, and Momo continued.

"My point is, he does seem to like you a lot. So I don't really mind you sleeping with him. Just that, for your information, we two are not the only ones he's seeing out. I might be his girlfriend in the front, but he has other girls he's sleeping with, girls who I approve of course. Are you fine knowing that?"

Momo doubted Rumi was fine with it… But then again, this same woman was here to tell her she'll sleep with an already taken man, so that doubt wasn't too strong.

Rumi's eyes were wide as she stared at Momo for a long time. "How many… No, who?"

"Currently, counting me, he's seeing three more girls. As for who? You'll have to ask him that yourself." Momo said. "What I mean is, Neji does love me and probably you too, but he's not the most loyal guy out there. Judge for yourself, if you really want to stay with a guy like that. As for your reason behind coming here today, I perfectly understand. Since he's already seeing others, I don't see the problem with another person joining."

"..."

Momo stood up and without saying goodbye, she walked away.

Rumi sat still on her seat silently.

—?—

"Was I too harsh?" Momo covered her red face with her hands. "God, that was too much… I shouldn't have said that…. Ugh, will Neji be mad?"

She actually found Rumi interesting. The Pro Hero was surely a bit prideful, but nothing unbearable. She was just trying to put on a hard act because she didn't want to come off as an easy girl. She will certainly apologise later on, though that's only if Rumi still chooses to be with Neji.

"Haah…" Momo released a loud sigh, before picking up her phone and sending a message to Neji, telling him that their meeting had ended, but she wasn't sure of the outcome.

—?—

Riding her motorbike, Rumi reached her home. She usually travels by foot, jumping from building to building, but she wasn't in the mood today so she rode her bike while wearing a skin-tight glossy bike suit that hugged her curves seductively.

Rumi soon walked inside her home, frowning as she smelt something coming inside her house, where nobody should be present right now.

Prepared for any unexpected battle, Rumi sniffed the fragrance and followed it with her rabbit instinct. She found the source to be from the kitchen, so she hid behind the door for a moment before peeking her head.

"Boo!"

Rumi jumped back, frightened at the familiar face suddenly popping up in front of her.

She would have attacked if the 'intruder' wasn't in her mind already.

"Neji!" Rumi hissed. "What are you doing here?"

Neji approached her, putting his hand behind her waist and staring at her eyes with his bewitching blue irises. "Can't I come to see my girl anytime I wish?"

"..." Rumi thinned her lips at that.

"That aside, I wanted to let you know, I told my girlfriend about you this morning and she said she'd judge you herself, and right then you happened to send her a message saying you want to meet her." Upon Neji's words, Rumi's eyes widened. "Momo just now messaged me, saying she approves of you."

That shocked Rumi. Momo did say she doesn't mind, but the way she said it sounded more like "I don't care" than "It's fine, I don't mind."

Neji then squeezed her butt softly. "I heard she also told you my secret?"

Rumi nodded. "Yes, she did… I am still thinking about my decision-"

"Meh, do that later." Neji interrupted her, pushing her against the wall as he kissed her. "For now, let us become horny rabbits."

Her eyes went wide, but she didn't struggle. No… she couldn't struggle.

She should have known, she didn't have any choice since the moment she allowed him to give her that massage.
