The moonlight shone through the window as the battle in Eri's bedroom finally ended. Even two powerful women working together were no match for Yuu.
Midori and Eri lay in his arms, blushing and smiling with post-coital bliss. After three hours and four rounds of intense release, Yuu was satisfied.
"Yuu-kun, Eri-san..." Midori whispered, her naked body pressed against him. "I have a friend I room with, Azusa. Since I'm almost never home now, I was thinking of asking her to move in here."
Eri knew Azusa from the café and had a good impression of her. She looked at Yuu.
"I'm fine with it," Yuu said. "But Midori-san... are you sure she'll agree?"
"I'll explain the situation to her and let her decide," Midori replied.
"If you succeed, I'll give you a very special reward," Yuu teased. He was genuinely pleased. Azusa was a classic beauty, and her presence would provide more Fate Power for his system.
The next morning, Yuu went to work feeling refreshed. But he wasn't going to Teitan High—he was headed to Ekoda High.
The timeline was moving again. He was finally going to meet Kaito Kuroba, Aoko Nakamori, and Akako Koizumi. He followed Erika Konno, the homeroom teacher for Class 2-B, to the classroom. Erika was a beautiful woman with a mole under her eye and lavender hair. Despite her serious appearance, Yuu's system immediately triggered an "Affection Interaction" with her.
This was a major discovery. Erika was a minor character in Conan, but the system recognized her as a "Fate Character." This meant he could harvest Fate Power from the entire Magic Kaito cast.
"Quiet down, everyone," Erika said, opening the door to Class 2-B. She introduced Yuu and stepped aside.
Yuu walked to the podium, looking at the vibrant students. Seeing two familiar faces gave him a massive sense of déjà vu.
"Hello, everyone. I am Yuu Hoshimiya, a visiting teacher from Teitan High. I'll be handling Health and Physical Education..."
He observed the class. Kaito Kuroba looked exactly like Shinichi Kudo. They shared the same face, the same show-off personality, and even their childhood friends looked identical. They were, in fact, cousins, though they didn't know it yet.
Then there was Aoko Nakamori. She was a carbon copy of Ran, though her personality was more childish and cheerful, lacking the burdens Ran had carried from a young age. Her father, Ginzo Nakamori, was the inspector in charge of catching Kaito Kid. Yuu knew him through his police connections.
Finally, his eyes landed on his main target: Akako Koizumi. The heir to Red Magic.
She was a vision in red—crimson hair and wine-red eyes. Even in a school uniform, she exuded the elegance of a high-born lady and a mysterious, witchy charm. As their eyes met, Yuu felt a deep, soulful pull. His high-level [Soul] and [Spirit] stats, which usually did nothing, flared to life.
I came to the right place, he thought.
At the same moment, Akako, who usually ignored the outside world, felt a strange jolt. She glanced at Yuu, her eyes narrowing as she secretly used magic to probe him. After a moment, a thoughtful, knowing smirk played on her lips.
Yuu finished his introduction and headed to his temporary office. He had one month to achieve his goals. He could ignore Kaito for now—if the boy caused trouble, Yuu could just expose his identity as Kaito Kid.
The real question was: Akako or Aoko?
He leaned toward Akako. He was obsessed with magical power. With magic, he could stop hiding and act more boldly. No hitman or organization could threaten him if he mastered the arcane.
Aoko would be easy to approach through her father, but Akako... how could he get close to a witch without making her suspicious?
He didn't know it yet, but Akako Koizumi was already very interested in him.
