The Strongest Eriri in History

The afternoon passed quickly, and by around five in the evening, Eriri followed Nodoka Haramura back to her house.

Before arriving, Eriri had already decided to spend a few enjoyable days in this world, at least until the conclusion of the preliminaries.

Eriri had no plans to return to the Saekano world immediately and instead intended to stay with Nodoka for a few days.

Nodoka, of course, happily agreed. Getting to live with Eriri for a few days was something she couldn't have hoped for more.

At this time, Nodoka's father, Kei Haramura, had not yet returned home. As a lawyer, it wasn't unusual for him to work overtime on weekends, especially when handling urgent cases. However, Eriri wasn't in a rush to meet him.

Nodoka's mother, Kaho Haramura, worked as a prosecutor in Tokyo, so she didn't live with Kei and Nodoka.

In the original storyline, Kei had always wanted Nodoka to transfer to a school in Tokyo so that their family could be reunited.

To this end, he had already arranged to move his job to Tokyo and received an offer from a firm there.

However, Nodoka wanted to stay in Nagano, leading to a disagreement between father and daughter. They eventually agreed that if Nodoka could win the national championship, she would be allowed to remain in Nagano.

This was a significant part of Nodoka's motivation to become a champion.

Eriri didn't know if Nodoka had told her parents about the chat group, but given that she hadn't hidden it from Saki Miyanaga and the others, it seemed unlikely she would hide it from her parents.

Of course, if Nodoka wanted to introduce her parents to Eriri, she wouldn't refuse.

Upon returning to her room, Nodoka immediately flopped onto her bed and lazily rolled around a few times. This was something she did every day after returning to her room.

Even though the five kilograms of weight she carried on her chest no longer posed any burden, old habits were hard to break.

"Hey, Nodoka, have you told your family about the chat group?" Eriri asked.

As she spoke, she casually dispelled her shoes, which had transformed into indoor slippers, and climbed onto the bed to sit beside Nodoka without any hesitation.

"I did! Since I noticed that no one else seemed to be keeping it a secret, I didn't think to hide it from my dad and mom either," Nodoka replied, rolling onto her side to face Eriri.

Because of her position, the curves of her chest appeared particularly pronounced.

Additionally, her school uniform's short top revealed her slim waist and an adorable belly button.

"I bet their reactions were interesting," Eriri said with a grin.

"They really were. It was the first time I saw my serious dad make that kind of face."

Remembering her father's shocked expression when she first demonstrated her abilities, Nodoka couldn't help but smile warmly.

She felt incredibly fortunate to have joined the chat group and equally grateful for the tremendous power she had gained.

Thanks to the chat group, her relationship with her father had greatly improved, making their interactions far less formal.

Moreover, her father had stopped interfering in her decision to stay in Nagano rather than transferring schools.

Having demonstrated her powers by taking him on a quick flight from Nagano to Tokyo, her father understood that even if she remained in Nagano, their family reunions would not be affected.

"I'm so happy to have joined the chat group, and even happier to have met you, Eriri, and Yue-chan and the others," Nodoka said softly, suddenly wrapping her arms around Eriri's waist.

"Mm, I'm also glad to have met you. I'm sure Yue-chan and the others feel the same," Eriri replied with a gentle smile, placing her hand on Nodoka's head and softly stroking her hair.

The atmosphere between the two on the bed grew subtly intimate, though neither did anything inappropriate. They stayed in that position for about ten minutes.

"Alright, it's getting late now. Let's have dinner," Eriri said with a smile, giving a light pat to Nodoka's head.

"Okay," Nodoka replied, her cheeks slightly flushed as she let go of Eriri's waist and sat up on the bed.

Her movements caused her chest to sway slightly, momentarily capturing Eriri's gaze.

Although Nodoka was a few centimeters shorter than Eriri, their body proportions were in entirely different dimensions.

However, Eriri was quite satisfied with her own figure and also admired Nodoka's.

Just as she had done at the Mahjong Club earlier in the day, Eriri conjured a square table out of thin air in Nodoka's room.

She then brought out a large lunchbox filled with food, just as plentiful as the one from lunch.

Soon, the table was laden with dishes emitting mouthwatering aromas. In addition to the dishes, Eriri also placed two bowls of perfectly steamed white rice and two pairs of finely crafted chopsticks on the table.

The most eye-catching item was a giant king crab at the center of the table.

The crab had already been prepared, with the meat and roe neatly arranged inside the shell. The legs had been pre-cut for easy eating.

There was enough food to feed five people, but for Eriri and Nodoka, this was nothing.

If they wanted, they could eat ten times the amount without any issues.

When they ate, their bodies would absorb the nutrients, while any impurities would be evaporated by their internal energy.

For people like Eriri and Nodoka, the nutrients in food were almost irrelevant. They ate simply to enjoy the taste.

Sitting side by side at the table, they picked up their chopsticks and began their meal.

Of course, when two beautiful girls dined together, it was far from a plain, mundane affair.

Feeding each other was only natural, wasn't it?

"Nodoka, try this. It's really good," Eriri said, picking up a piece of tender fish with her chopsticks and holding it up to Nodoka's mouth.

Nodoka, without any hesitation or thought of refusal, blushed slightly as she opened her small mouth and took the piece of fish from Eriri's chopsticks.

"How is it? Good, right?" Eriri asked with a smile as she withdrew her chopsticks.

"Mm, it's delicious," Nodoka replied happily, nodding.

Not only was the fish delectable, but the act of being fed by Eriri filled her with joy.

Returning the favor, Nodoka picked up a piece of crab meat with her chopsticks and extended it to Eriri.

"Eriri, you have some too," Nodoka said, her face full of anticipation as she looked at Eriri.

Eriri didn't mind being fed by Nodoka at all and happily ate the crab meat offered to her.

It took about an hour for the two of them to finish all the dishes on the table, leaving only some scraps. With a wave of her hand, Eriri made all the leftover food and scraps disappear.

By then, it was already past seven in the evening.

After resting for about ten minutes, Eriri decided to take a bath. Nodoka's room was equipped with a private bathroom. Eriri invited Nodoka to join her, and Nodoka, far from refusing, was quietly excited about the prospect of bathing together.

Although Eriri was fond of Nodoka's physique, Nodoka herself was even more enamored with Eriri's.

In the bathroom, the two helped wash each other, playfully splashing water, and finally soaked together in the tub. By the time they emerged from the bathroom, nearly an hour had passed.

That bath also gave Eriri firsthand experience of the impressive presence of a five-kilogram bust.

Another ten minutes later, the sound of a car pulling up outside announced the return of Nodoka's father, Nodoka Harumura.

The first thing Harumura did after coming home was to check if his daughter was home.

Although he knew Nodoka was no longer the same as before, possessing power enough to destroy worlds, a father's concern for his daughter was independent of her abilities.

Seeing a pair of small loafers at the entrance and the light on in Nodoka's room, he relaxed, knowing she was home.

Still, he went to the door of her room and asked, "Nodoka, have you had dinner?"

He didn't plan to enter. Ever since Nodoka started middle school, he had avoided going into her room casually. Even as her father, he felt it necessary to respect boundaries as she grew older.

"Welcome back, Dad. Yes, I've already had dinner," Nodoka replied from inside. Usually, she would have opened the door and stepped out to greet him.

However, with Eriri present and dressed in a somewhat thin nightgown, she decided not to open the door.

"Alright, rest well. Tomorrow is the county preliminaries, right? Good luck," Harumura said.

Thanks to the influence of the chat group, he no longer opposed Nodoka playing mahjong as he had in the original timeline.

"Thank you, Dad," Nodoka replied.

…

...

"Good morning!"

"Good morning, President, and good morning, Mako-senpai."

"Good morning, Nodoka, Eriri."

The next morning, when Eriri and Nodoka arrived at the town's train station, they found that Takei Hisa and Mako Someya were already there waiting for them. As for Saki Miyanaga, Yuuki Kataoka, and Kyoutarou Suga, they hadn't arrived yet.

The first thing they did upon meeting was exchange greetings.

Since they had arranged the previous day to meet at the train station, the group had come straight from their homes instead of heading to school first.

The venue for the county preliminaries of the mahjong tournament was located in Nagano City, a fair distance from the small town where Kiyosumi High School was situated. Even by train, the journey took a considerable amount of time.

Although Eriri could have instantly transported everyone to the competition site, she chose not to do so. Taking the train through the countryside seemed like a pleasant sightseeing journey.

Before long, Saki Miyanaga, Yuuki Kataoka, and Kyoutarou Suga also arrived at the train station one after another.

Yuuki rode her bicycle to the station but was still the last to arrive.

After the group gathered, they wasted no time buying tickets and entering the station. Yuuki stored her bicycle in the station's designated area.

Perhaps because it was still early, combined with the small-town setting, the first train heading to Nagano City was nearly empty, with only Eriri's group aboard.

After about half an hour, the train arrived in Nagano City.

Unlike the sparsely populated town, Nagano City's streets were noticeably busier. Though not packed, there were still a fair number of people around.

Since it was the official start of the county preliminaries, many high school students had gathered in the city, along with spectators, adding up to a considerable crowd.

Before long, Eriri and her group arrived at the competition venue, guided by Hisa Takei and Mako Someya.

Their arrival naturally attracted almost everyone's attention.

Under normal circumstances, even with someone as striking as Nodoka Haramura in the group, the reaction wouldn't have been this overwhelming.

However, Eriri was far too dazzling. Combined with her unwillingness to conceal her beauty, such attention was inevitable.

Since the competition was limited to female students, nearly everyone at the venue was a sailor-uniform-dressed high school girl, with very few males present.

The scene was a sea of bare legs stretching as far as the eye could see.

Initially, photographers and reporters focused on the top-ranked teams entering the venue. But the moment Eriri's group walked in, all cameras and phones turned their way.

A cacophony of murmurs filled the venue.

"She's gorgeous! Is she one of the participants? Which school is she from?"

"I'm not sure."

"That looks like the uniform for Kiyosumi High Svhool."

"…."

Practically all the attention was on Eriri, leaving Nodoka and the others entirely unnoticed.

Among the crowd, a woman dressed in a shirt and jeans had her eyes lit up as she gazed at Eriri's group. Unlike others, her focus shifted to Nodoka Haramura standing beside Eriri.

As a reporter for Weekly Mahjong TODAY, she had interviewed Nodoka a year ago after her victory in the National Middle School Mahjong Championship.

Before the county preliminaries began, she had hoped to interview Nodoka in advance but had been unable to seize the opportunity.
