The next morning, Yuriko felt the soft and warm embrace of Yuki's hug. She woke up to find the room in disarray. The room looked as if a tornado went through it while she was asleep.

"Forget the mess and let's get some breakfast."

"But-"

"No buts. Pancakes are waiting."

She got up and went first, leaving Yuriko behind. Yuriko noticed she was wearing her shirt from last night, minus the underwear.

"Someone's finally awake."

There stood Kyosuke in the doorway, staring at her with a sly smile. There was something erotic about a woman wearing nothing but a shirt at home. Yuriko felt conscious about herself and shyly tried to cover herself.

"Come on, don't let the food get cold."

He turned around, twirling her panties with his finger as he walked away. She thought he's been teasing her more and more lately. But the growl of her stomach interrupted her thoughts and convinced her to join the others for breakfast. Upon sitting at the dining table, Yuki was already eating her stack of pancakes with a side of mixed fruits and a tall glass of milk. Kyosuke sat across from her with his own stack of pancakes, sliced orange and banana, with a cup of coffee while he read the news on his PDA. Her food was already set out next to Kyosuke. She already knew what would happen if she sat there but went with it anyway. Kyosuke set a bottle of syrup and whipped cream bottle next to her plate. After pouring syrup and topping off with whipped cream, she took a bite. Even though it was her usual meals, she relished the thought that she can enjoy a luxurious life like this. Her time during the Omega Program was nothing but harsh treatment, so she was grateful to Yuki for letting her live her life freely. She felt the gentle grip of a hand on her head. Kyosuke let his hand off and drank his coffee, hiding a smile behind his cup.

"Yuriko, panties are not headwear. You can dress how you like in here, but don't think you can go out looking like that."

Confused, she put her hand on her head and felt a piece of cloth. She grabbed it and realized it was her underwear, the one she wore last night and the one Kyosuke was playing with earlier.

"Um... "

"Underwear on your head is a little childish, but that much can be forgiven."

Kyosuke said before taking a bite of his food. Being teased by Kyosuke and Yuki, she immediately put her underwear on and quickly ate her food. After breakfast, they took a quick shower and dressed up for the day.

"What're we doing today?"

Yuriko asked as they descended in the elevator.

"We're going to see our old friend, Itami."

"Is he going somewhere again?"

"Yep, and we're going too."

Yuriko didn't stop Kyosuke as she lifted the back of her skirt and groped her from behind. She was used to it by now and such things didn't bother her while she conversed with Yuki.

"Where to?"

"The Prime Minister's Official Residence."

"The Prime Minister? Why don't we have one?"

"Because we have an emperor."

"But don't they have one too?"

"They do, but he holds no actual political power."

Their conversation went on while they got in their car, crossed over, and arrived in front of the residence.

"It's quite small. I thought the head of the government would live in a bigger place."

"It may seem small when compared to other homes of other leaders, but this is a modern castle, designed to protect those inside from all sorts of threats."

They were allowed entry into the building with little to no restrictions, apart from confiscating their weapons.

Itami flinched when he saw Yuki walk in with several military officers and cabinet members. She silently waved and smiled at him as she stood next to him.

"Let's get started. First, state your name, rank, and affiliation."

"I-Itami Youji, First Lieutenant of the JSDF."

"Yuki Hanegawa, Supreme Shogun of the Empire of the Rising Sun."

"Supreme Shogun? Is there a comparative rank?"

"Grand Marshal, General of the Armies, Supreme Commander. I hold the highest military rank in our military, serving directly under our leader."

"I see. Moving on… The reports were a little…"

"Disconcerting?"

"Half and half. The resources are plentiful enough to turn the economy on its heels. The conflict with the Crown Prince is operating smoothly with minor problems here and there."

"Your main concern is the Black Mist, isn't it?"

"Yes… how did you-"

"Sir, she has an intuition like no other."

"So she's the one we've heard about."

"The one and only."

"Then you must know that-"

"That the mass population are in a state of panic ever since news of the Black Mist was broadcasted? Not to mention that the stock market crashed and people are conspiring about Japan monopolizing the Gate and don't believe the phenomena is in any way related? But a proposal has been offered to stabilize the situation."

Everyone was in awe, aside from Itami.

"Are we sure our intel hasn't been leaked?"

"You can't take it seriously. After all, it's all just an educated guess."

Itami felt a chill down his spine when she said that. As beautiful and attractive as she is, she's also scary when it comes to taking action. That's when he remembered what it would be like to nuzzle his face in her chest. He caught her looking at him with a I know what you're thinking about look. He cleared his throat to move along the conversation.

"The proposal?"

"Ah yes. Close the Gate, prevent uncontrolled spread of our technology and knowledge beyond the Gate, and…"

"And?"

"Hand over Second Lieutenant Itami Youji to Lelei La Lalena, Tuka Luna Marceau, and Rory Mercury."

Yuki continued.

"Yes, those are the conditions of the proposal. Do that, and the Gate can be closed by Miss Lalena."

"Lucky you, getting to be with your harem."

"But… I… wait…"

Itami was in a shock over that last part.

"We'll discuss that once we gather more intel. For now, this meeting is-"

"The world has turned its attention towards Japan. Their leaders are currently plotting against this country to gain profit from the Special Region's resources."

Yuki answered again. This time, everyone was shocked by her statement.

"Commander, what do you mean?"

"Should've been obvious ever since the Gate first appeared. An unknown region with vast untapped resources that its local inhabitants have no interest in gathering? Not to mention that its military is so technologically underdeveloped and its people vastly uneducated about knowledge that's common in the modern era?"

The military leaders looked at each other with concerned expressions. The politicians present were trying not to look as if they didn't know that and played it off.

"There are eyes and ears observing all activity about the Gate. For example…"

Yuki walked towards one of the guards next to the entrance and pinned him down with a gun to his head.

"Y-You! What're you-"

"How lax is your security if you allow spies like him to attend important meetings like this? In the Prime Minister's home no less."

The man struggled but it was no use. Yuki had him in a position that made it impossible for him to get up.

"Your country is too relaxed when it comes to security."

She got off of him and put her gun away. The guard got up and glared at Yuki but was soon scared for his life. Not because of Yuki, but Yuriko standing behind her. To everyone else, she seemed normal as can be. But little did they know, she was mentally invading the man, breaking him down from the inside until he was nothing but a quivering mess on the floor.

"The world has turned on you. You must prepare for the coming storm."

Yuki said that in a very cryptic way, allowing further confusion and distress among everyone. She gestured for Yuriko and Kyosuke to leave. Once outside the room, a security team rushed in, most likely securing the exposed spy in the other room.

"Were we even needed in that room?"

"I thought they would discuss more pressing matters, but it seems my guess was right. They're too pigheaded to think like I do."

"Are we done for today?"

Yuki shoved Yuriko up to the wall and performed a kabedon.

"You want it that badly?"

"Wh-What if I do?"

Yuki smirked and nuzzled her neck. Yuriko held back from moaning since they were literally just outside the meeting room. Yuki stopped and whispered in her ear

"I've got half a mind to do you right here and now."

Before she could respond, Yuki intensely kissed her. Though no one else was around, there was no telling when someone would come out and see them going at it in the hallway. Yuriko tried to pry Yuki off of her, but as usual, her body was weak to her advances. With one hand slowly moving up and under her blouse with the other doing the same to her skirt, Yuriko just let her do what she wanted, despite who's watching.

*cough*

Yuki stopped and the both of them looked over to see Itami standing there, darting his eyes away as if he didn't want to see what they were doing.

"Jealous?"

"I… don't know how to answer that."

"It's a simple yes or no."

Yuki found it cute how fidgety he was.

"Did you want to join in?"

He looked around to see if anyone else was there.

"May I?"

"Sure. Just convince him first."

Kyosuke moved in between them. That was when Itami knew he had no chance and gave up.

"Are you guys going back?"

"We're going around town before going back."

"Business or pleasure?"

"Both."

"Well, see ya."

Yuki scoffed.

"See ya? You know how to leave a lady wanting more."

She walked up to him, grabbed both his hands and put them on her chest. It was just for a few seconds before she walked out. Itami was thankful for the lewdness that is Yuki. For the entire day, he couldn't forget the sensation and wanted more.

So I've taken more time than last time to make this chapter. They've updated the latest chapter to 104, so I had more to work with. But like before, I'm just going to draw events from the LN out of order just to move the story along faster. The mysterious giant monster ravaging the Special Region might show up on the other side sometime soon. :O
