Naruto: Freeloading is Great! 2 [44]
🕑 Added 2025-10-23 15:28:49 +0000 UTCWhen he didn’t want to get assaulted, he nearly got assaulted; yet when he actually wanted to get assaulted, the other person turned stupid.
…I’ve had enough!
“Eh? Hoshino, you recovered that quickly? W-why are you suddenly grabbing my hand? What are you—wah!”
Hinata, completely clueless, was suddenly pushed down onto the bed. She stared in confusion at the man who had abruptly recovered his strength.
“Since you won’t take the initiative, I guess it’s my turn. Not sure if a girl is combat-ready at six years old, but whatever, I’m not in a rush. First things first—I’ll dye you thoroughly in my color. A ready-made wife—can't pass this up. Miss this chance, and I might end up forever alone.”
“…W-what… Didn’t you say you’d love only me? How’d you suddenly become ultimate scum who’ll do anything to get a girl? It’s not like I can’t accept it, but… this makes me uncomfortable!”
“—Huh?”
Hoshino stared blankly at Hinata. He couldn’t recall ever saying he’d love only Hinata.
Since coming to this world, he’d confessed just twice.
Once to Ino, and once indirectly expressing feelings towards Hanabi to Hinata… Wait a minute…
Sister. “Younger sister.” Hinata, this lovestruck girl, had said something crazy like that.
…S-so that’s what it was?!
Damn it, this girl’s brain circuits are too messed up to understand!
The moment he figured it out, everything that had felt subtly off became instantly clear.
No wonder Hinata accepted that weird confession. Well then…
Hoshino propped himself up on one hand beside Hinata’s face, moving in closer.
“That’s right! I’m ultimate scum—because I love you to the bone! When I said I'd be single forever if I missed you, it was because I’ll have no one but you!”
“Ehh?! Y-you’re suddenly confessing so passionately… It’s even more embarrassing than I imagined… Ah, u-um, I don’t—I don’t really know how to…”
Hinata stammered, words tumbling out incoherently until finally she clamped her mouth shut and squeezed her eyes closed.
She acted so bold before, so why at the critical moment is she suddenly as timid as a startled rabbit?
No, now’s not the time for these thoughts! Before Hinata fully realizes my true nature, I need to take advantage first!
Although he’d been twenty years old before transmigrating…
Sorry. In that rotten world, that rotten era, he was a worthless loser who’d never even held a girl’s hand.
Even though he’d gained plenty of theoretical knowledge from doujinshi, novels, anime, and movies, this was his first time putting theory into practice.
Here on this bed was an obedient, quiet, absolutely adorable little girl—a loli, his ultimate fantasy.
Both of them clearly heard their own heartbeats and each other’s.
His heart beat rapidly, and he could clearly feel blood quickening through his veins.
“I-I-I’m gonna k-kiss you now, s-so don’t bite me, okay…?”
“I—I won’t bite… I-I never refused you…”
“…Then… here I go…!”
“—Wait!”
At the critical moment, Hinata suddenly pushed him back with her hands.
“I-I-I still need a bit of mental preparation time…”
“More preparation? No way! I’ve read enough stories to know exactly how this goes. Every single time the protagonist hesitates, someone barges in and interrupts. No way am I letting that happen!”
“Mmph.” “Mmn!”
...
“Hey, don’t you guys feel like it’s gotten way too quiet?”
Before their discussion could finish, Sasuke suddenly spoke up.
“What a deaf idiot you are. We’ve been shouting this whole time and you call that quiet? Are your ears deaf from muscle atrophy or something? Not manly at all.”
“Shut up, you stupid gorilla. Your brain’s all muscle—what could you possibly know? Am I seriously the only one who thinks something’s missing from this living room?”
At Sasuke’s words, the other three paused. Now that he mentioned it, something did feel off. The room really seemed to be missing something.
“I’ve got a bad feeling…” x2
Sasuke and Naruto spoke simultaneously. Though Naruto thought it was perfectly normal, Sasuke, who’d completely cut ties with Naruto, was immediately annoyed.
“Don’t copy me, you bitch traitor!”
“…And how’s that my fault!!??”
Ignoring Naruto, Sasuke scanned the room and immediately spotted the likely trouble spot.
“Over there—the door was open earlier, wasn’t it? Whose room is that?”
“…Mine…”
“Those two bastards must be inside! Give me the keys!”
Absolutely sure that bastard Hinata would have locked the door, Sasuke snatched the keys from Naruto’s hand and dashed over.
Click-click-clack!
The distinct feel of unlocking, plus the double-click of the door mechanism, confirmed it had indeed been locked from the inside.
Fortunately, this was just an interior door, not a reinforced house entrance—otherwise, it might’ve gotten troublesome.
But what he saw inside was troublesome enough…
“W-what… what are you two doing on my bed!? What shameful things are you two up to!!!”
Naruto stormed up in a rage, pulling Hoshino roughly off Hinata.
As Hoshino toppled backward, a thin, silvery strand between them stretched, then broke.
Hinata’s move certainly surprised them all, but it was ultimately acceptable.
It was just a kiss. What’s the big deal?
Sasuke and Sakura-bro looked relatively indifferent, causing Naruto to shout out in disbelief:
“How can you guys be so calm!? A kiss! They were just kissing!! Don’t you have any other reaction? Shouldn’t you all be screaming ‘scum!’ and stabbing Hoshino to death with kunai right now?!”
...
—What’s this guy, who drank Hoshino’s sour white fluids, even saying?
“You’re really making a fuss about nothing. Compared to what you’ve done, Naruto, a kiss is just a tiny appetizer. Why act so surprised? Or are you secretly bragging about your glorious achievements?”
Hinata’s face burned crimson, but she still fired back sharply at Naruto.
Sasuke and Sakura-bro seemed to take Hinata’s side, both fixing their eyes accusingly on Naruto.
“Eh? Glorious achievements? What glorious…”
Naruto’s voice trailed off. Thinking about it carefully, Hinata was right—compared to his own "achievements," something like a kiss really was trivial.
But he'd never once mentioned the massages or the toilet incident…
Naruto glared angrily at Hoshino. You actually told someone else about something like that!?
Although Naruto, this gaylord, glared at him with vinegar-filled eyes, Hoshino didn't care at all.
What bothered him much more was why everyone else seemed so indifferent about the kiss.
Didn’t these gaylords keep shouting how they wanted to be my lover, fighting each other tooth-and-nail just moments ago…?
So why the lukewarm reaction!?
And shouldn’t Hinata be triumphantly flaunting the kiss to his three love-rival gaylords right now? Where’s that arrogant, superior victor’s attitude from earlier? Why not bring it out now!?
What’s going on!? That was my first kiss! Do you guys really not care at all? This seriously hurts my feelings!!
