Multiverse: SSS-Rank Treasure Chest at the Beginning

"Hey, don't let her look down on us!"

Yumiko puffed out her chest, but her rank was similar to Yui's, so she also couldn't compare to the other party.

"Kasumigaoka fatty, you have your match."

Eriri lost the desire to compete, simply because the gap was too large.

"Shut up!"

Utaha's face wasn't looking good, simply because she, who was originally the highest E-rank in the entire venue, was actually suppressed by one rank.

"Ah... I was also defeated!"

Hana was also slightly inferior.

"Uh..."

Sayu had previously suffered bullying from a group of girls at school, and seeing so many girls looking at her, she quickly lowered her head in fright.

"Sorry..."

"We were rude."

Miko saw that the other party's emotions were abnormal and quickly stepped forward to comfort her.

"Exactly, you scared her."

Tenya seized the opportunity to reach out and rest his hand on the other party's slightly trembling shoulder.

"You fellow..."

When everyone saw Tenya's action, they all revealed expressions of disgust.

"Tenya..."

Sayu looked up at him, then remembered something, and quickly shook off his hand.

She glared at him angrily.

Although this man in front of her had saved her from the blonde thugs, he immediately took her to a hotel room afterwards.

Her mind was blank at the time, and she was confusedly deprived of her precious first time by the other party...

"Don't look at me with such eyes. Meeting is fate, Sayu." Tenya comforted her kindly.

...

Sayu was about to retort, but then she looked at the other party's handsome face.

It was really hard for her to say the words "I was really unlucky to meet you".

After all, to be honest, from a comparison of parameters, Tenya's looks were definitely the Prince Charming for most girls.

First time...

Don't mention it, maybe she resisted at first, but halfway through, she had already changed from passive to active, and even at one point reversed the situation and acted as the rider...

Wait a minute!!

What am I thinking about?

To actually develop an obsession with a scumbag!

So shameless!

Sayu felt deeply ashamed of herself.

Tenya saw through her thoughts, took the initiative to hold her small hand, and actively guided her, "Sayu, don't suppress your true feelings. You are free and have the right to pursue your own pleasure."

"Pursuing my own pleasure...?"

"Can I really?"

A glimmer of light flashed in Sayu's dim eyes.

Her long-suppressed inner feelings seemed to have found an outlet.

She began to explain her own experiences...

The initial cause of the incident was when a popular male student in class confessed to her.

Sayu refused him on the grounds of wanting to study hard, and as a result, was inexplicably ostracized by the group of girls in the class.

They said she was pretending to be pure, playing hard to get, and then they ganged up to bully her.

Hearing Sayu's description, everyone showed expressions of pity.

"How awful! Sayu clearly didn't do anything wrong..." Yui easily empathized with the other party.

"Huh? Bullied for refusing a confession? Are those girls out of their minds?" Yumiko was bewildered.

"An excuse. Those girls attacked Ogiwara-san because of jealousy. A bunch of maggots in a ditch!"

Yukino's criticism was very sharp, simply because she herself had been a victim of bullying.

"Th-thank you..."

Seeing so many people speaking up for her, Sayu's closed-off heart opened up a little.

Then she continued to recount:

A marginalized girl in the class took the initiative to comfort her, and the two became good friends.

As a result, that girl suffered even more cruel bullying and eventually committed suicide by jumping off a building, unable to bear the humiliation.

The death of her friend caused severe psychological trauma to Sayu.

However, just as she was crying to her mother, she was met with merciless indifference, ultimately leading to a mental breakdown.

"I never heard about this in the news, was it covered up?" Miko felt very distressed.

Saki said, "Unbelievable, for a parent to ignore their child's cries, truly unworthy of being a mother!"

Although Saki's family was poor, they supported each other, and their lives were quite harmonious.

She couldn't imagine that there was such a cruel mother in the world.

It's no wonder Sayu eventually chose to run away from home.

Staying in such a heartless family, she would go crazy sooner or later.

"Indeed, in that situation, being picked up by Tenya-kun can be considered a kind of luck."

Utaha was a sentimental person. She understood that when a girl's heart breaks down, she often gives up on herself and heads down a path of self-destruction.

Eriri also felt the same way. If Sayu had been dragged away by the blonde thug that day, her body and mind would have been ravaged and broken, causing her to give up completely, selling herself along the way, and ultimately becoming a shared bicycle...

"Huff..."

After finishing recounting the painful experiences suppressed in her heart, Sayu felt much more relaxed, and a relieved smile appeared on her face.

"That being said, Tenya-kun's actions were still taking advantage of the situation."

Megumi hit the nail on the head, getting straight to the point.

"Cough cough! I was just going with the flow." Tenya couldn't deny it.

He originally thought the other party was a shared bicycle that he could ride casually, even standing up and pedaling without mercy.

Who knew it was a new bike that had just landed and hadn't even hit the road yet?

"Scumbag."

To this, Sayu only offered a simple rebuke, without cursing or becoming hysterical.

Perhaps only she understood that in that state of despair, being needed by someone was also a kind of salvation...

"Sorry." Tenya apologized sincerely.

But he didn't regret it. He was never a saint. Only a fool wouldn't take advantage when there was an opportunity.

He only knew that missing an F-rank delicacy would definitely lead to lifelong regret.

"Forget it..."

"Let the past be the past."

Sayu avoided eye contact, not wanting to discuss this topic anymore.

No one present was a fool.

Seeing Sayu lightly forgive Tenya's actions, the meaning was self-evident.

"Tenya, you truly are a man burdened with heavy sins!" Rukia commented.

"Sayu-chan, where do you plan to go next?" Yui kindly held her hand.

"If you don't mind, you can come to the Evil King's True Eye User's base." Rikka proactively extended an invitation.

"Um..."

"I don't know either."

"I'll probably wander around and clear my head."

Sayu shook her head with a bitter smile.
