As I check my status screen, I notice several changes. Apparently, I've lost a part of my humanity since the last time I checked.

My parameters have all increased by varying amounts. After that, I notice that another form of Berserk has been listed. Its name sounds both astounding and terrifying as fuck at the same time. The ability I used to amuse Ayumi has been added as well...

I then take notice of a small button at the top right of my vision. Curious, I press it using my thoughts. The next moment, everything displayed changes into a rather interesting board:

------

Taking a look at the "games" listed, I begin to think of the way they can even be played... Will I be using my thoughts to move the character as a controller would?

Just as I am about to open the description of the first game, I hear a knock on the door. Through my senses, I can tell that it's Nao.

"Come in.", I say as I take a look at the now sleeping Ayumi.

The door opens and enters Nao with a somewhat stern look on her face. She takes a look at Ayumi who's beside me then gestures to me to follow her outside.

I kiss Ayumi on the cheek once before leaving the room with Nao.

Outside, Nao turns around and gives me a weird look. She stares into my eyes and as she says in a low voice,

"Someone has come to visit you."

Oh? Interesting. Who could it be that can make Nao act like this? One way to find out.

"Show me where they are.", I calmly tell her.

Nao stares at me for a few more seconds before grabbing my arm and dragging me along with her.

Now, this is surprising. It's unlike her to be so agitated. I'm even more curious about the identity of the person that has come to visit me.

It doesn't take us long to get to where the rest of the group is. There, I see Joijiro, Misa/Yusa, and an orange-haired girl. There is also someone else beside them that amazes me.

A beautiful black-haired girl who's average in height. Her skin looks as smooth as porcelain. Her raven-black hair that reaches all the way to her waist serves to add more to her beauty. She's conversing with, upon closer look, Misa. Her eyes are deep blue in colour, matching with the colour of a shiny hair tie she's wearing.

My presence attracts everyone's attention as they all look my way, including the girl. She beams a smile as soon as she sees me which shocks me to the core due to how good it looked.

Taking a short look around, I notice that I'm not the only one that's stunned by her beauty. Men and women alike continue to stare at her with widened eyes.

She strolls towards us with a smile still plastered to her face. She gets right in front of me, raises her arms, and embraces me while gleefully exclaiming in an alluring voice,

"Victor!"

What?! How does she that name? Oh right! I almost forgot...

"Juno?", I say as she steps back from me twice.

"Did you miss me?", she says with a cheeky grin.

What the hell is going on? This is really unlike her! And why did she call me by my outer-world name?

"Uhm, yeah. When did you get here?", I try to start a conversation with her, but don't know where to start.

"To the hospital? Half an hour ago.", she says without missing a beat.

How the heck am I supposed to deal with this? I can feel Nao beside me getting more and more irritated by the second. Crap. How do I introduce her?

Oh, check her out~ This girl is my sister from my previous life before I reincarnated and came to this world. Yeah, sounds about right!

"Can you give us a moment to talk in private?" I say as I look at Nao.

Shit. She's looking at me like I'm a walking corpse. I need to explain it to her later...

"Of course~ Excuse me Tomori-chan, I'll be taking him away for a short while.", she states with a trace of mockery in her voice.

This girl... she just wants to pour oil on the already blazing flames. Not giving her a chance to say anything else is my top priority for the moment as I drag her away to somewhere that no one can hear us and whisper to her firmly,

"What are you doing here?!"

She remains unfazed as she replies,

"Didn't I tell you that I will be coming over? Don't worry, I haven't told them anything about myself. You can introduce me however you like, however, I would prefer you to introduce me as your wife. I'm sure they will have some splendid reactions if you do that.

And bring disaster upon myself. No, thanks. I shake my head to clear away some unhealthy thoughts before asking her,

"What's with your look? Why do you look like this?"

She smirks as she says, "My previous appearance was a form I used, in order to avoid garnering attention. This is what I truly look like. I'm pretty right?"

How troublesome. Now I need to think of how to introduce her to the rest...
