An Unexpected Encounter in Blue City
I was walking through Blue City with Yeongja and Iseul, planning a nice date together, when we ran into a certain woman.
She had deep blue hair and matching blue eyes. She was sitting at an outdoor café, sipping coffee, and the moment she spotted me and Yeongja, she broke into a bright smile and waved.
"Jiwoo! Auntie Yeongja!"
Hearing someone call our names, I looked around and finally spotted her sitting at the café table.
(She is an adult.)
"Blue! It's been so long!"
The instant Yeongja saw her, she greeted Blue with obvious delight.
Blue immediately stood up from her seat and came running over to us.
Then she narrowed her eyes at me in that playful, teasing way of hers and said,
"Ah... H-hey... Blue noona."
But Blue had no idea.
She didn't know that Yeongja had already become my wife.
And suddenly, Blue couldn't understand why her heart was pounding so hard.
What... what is this...? Why is my heart racing the moment I see Jiwoo?
No one knew why Blue was acting like this all of a sudden...
The reason was my Casanova's Charm ability.
Its effect made it ridiculously easy to raise a woman's affection toward me.
"U-um, Blue noona... have you eaten lunch yet? If not, want to grab something together?"
Even though the atmosphere felt a little awkward, I invited her to join us for lunch.
Blue answered with an enthusiastic "Sure!" So the four of us—me, Yeongja, Iseul, and Blue—headed to a nearby restaurant in Blue City.
Once we were seated and had ordered our food, Blue looked at me with curious eyes and asked,
"Huh? What is it?"
I listened as Blue continued.
"W-well, that's..."
I couldn't come up with a proper answer, but Yeongja smoothly stepped in and told her,
After Yeongja said that, Blue couldn't press the issue any further.
Instead, she moved on to another question.
Blue! Why are you asking that?! Don't tell me you're jealous of her?
Even as Blue asked Iseul who she was, she couldn't understand why she felt a sting of jealousy toward the woman standing beside me.
I explained Iseul's situation to Blue.
Of course, Iseul was technically my Slave, but I didn't treat her like one.
"Say hi. This is Iseul."
"U-um... hello..."
"H-hey..."
An awkward tension hung between Blue and Iseul as they both turned their heads away from each other.
I continued explaining to Blue.
"Iseul is the youngest sister of the Gym Leaders here. You've met her older sisters, right?"
At my words, Blue stared at me with a look that said this was the first she'd heard of it.
We kept chatting until our food finally arrived.
While talking with Blue, I learned a lot about her personality and her Pokémon—things I hadn't known before.
First, her starter Pokémon had been Squirtle. It had already evolved into Wartortle.
She also had a Ditto she'd caught somewhere, plus a Jigglypuff and a Clefairy. With those four Pokémon, she'd made it all the way to Blue City.
"Blue noona, you said Gary was the first one to challenge the Gym here. Did you run into him?"
When I asked if she'd met Gary, Blue snorted and began complaining.
The moment she talked about Gary, her face twisted with irritation.
I figured if I kept bringing him up she'd get even angrier, so I quickly changed the subject.
"Then what about Boyeon? Did she pass through here too?"
When I asked about Boyeon, Blue answered,
Blue mentioned that Boyeon wanted to marry me?
Just how much had the world changed after I rewrote reality? The settings had shifted way more than I expected.
Once again, Blue's mood seemed to sour. I wanted to hear more about Boyeon, but I decided it was best to drop that topic too.
Then I asked my final question.
Jiwoo mentioning Boyeon made me feel bad again... Why is that...?
While Blue was lost in her own thoughts, I asked her about the trainer from Viridian City.
At my question, Blue gave me a strange look.
Then she said,
"Huh? What's weird about it?"
Blue frowned and continued,
Oh crap...
I had no idea...
So Yellow had been friends with Jiwoo since childhood too...
Still... should I challenge Blue to a Pokémon battle and turn her into my Slave? Honestly, I really want her...
Blue was one of my ideal types from the anime. I had to make her mine no matter what.
Plus, her talent and battle skills would be a huge help when I eventually aimed for the Championship.
Even if I couldn't become a Pokémon Master myself, Blue definitely had what it took.
The Gym battle against her was scheduled for tomorrow, so I needed to secure her today.
Right now, though, she was staring at me with suspicious eyes. I tried to play it off casually.
"I was just joking. Blue noona, we've finished lunch, so let's go somewhere and talk more."
Blue looked at me doubtfully for a moment, but eventually shrugged and stood up.
We left the restaurant and headed straight for a nearby hotel.
Blue asked why we were going to a hotel, but when we told her we'd pay for the room, she reluctantly followed us inside.
Why does Jiwoo suddenly look like my ideal type? My type is supposed to be muscular guys...
Blue's ideal man was the rugged, battle-hardened muscle type—the kind you got from real fighting, not just lifting weights at the gym.
Yet the moment she saw me, I somehow fit that image perfectly. She couldn't understand why and felt completely confused.
I pulled up her status window.
Name: Blue
Strength: 8
Intelligence: 6
Agility: 7
Origin World: Pokémon
Affection: 75
Inner Thoughts: Why does Jiwoo look like my ideal type all of a sudden?!
Huh? Her affection is higher than I expected. Why?
I was genuinely surprised to see Blue's affection at 75.
Even though we'd technically known each other since we were kids in the neighborhood, I'd assumed it would be around 30 at most. But 75? That was huge.
If things went well, I might be able to claim her today.
Her stats were even better than Yeongja's. As expected of a main heroine, I suppose.
Seeing that her affection had reached 75, I gave Yeongja and Iseul a subtle signal that I wanted to be alone with Blue. They quickly made excuses about going to the bathroom or needing some fresh air and left the hotel.
Blue tried to leave with them, but I grabbed her hand and pulled her into the hotel room. She followed me with a bewildered expression.
The moment we were inside, I pushed her onto the bed.
Blue looked up at me in shock. I climbed on top of her and said,
"H-huh—?"
Her face flushed bright red. Since her affection was already this high, I figured I should confess properly.
My sudden confession made Blue's heart race even faster.
Normally, sex was something that required mutual consent...
But in this Pokémon world, if I won a battle against a woman, I could claim every part of her—body, rights, everything—without any hassle. Still, without a battle, I had to raise her affection and get actual consent.
Maybe because of my confession, her affection jumped from 75 to 80.
A system notification chimed in my head with information about affection levels.
At 80 Affection, the target will develop a one-sided crush on the owner.
At 90 Affection, the target will fall deeply and sincerely in love with the owner.
At MAX (100) Affection, the target will follow the owner with absolute, blind devotion.
According to the notification, once a woman reached 100 affection, she would be like Yeongja—willing to do anything I asked without the slightest doubt.
Since Blue had reached the "crush" stage at 80, I leaned down and stole her lips in a kiss.
"Mmph!"
Startled by the sudden kiss, Blue stared wide-eyed at me for a moment before slowly closing her eyes.
As we kissed, her affection began to rise little by little.
I wondered why, but at the time I didn't realize it was all thanks to my Casanova's Charm ability.
