Anime Crossover: The Losing Heroines Have Become Witches

The newly opened cat cafe looked quite professional.

The cats seemed to be veteran "actors" who had long "simulated being cute for five minutes and eaten for fifteen years." Even when seeing strangers, they were not afraid, but just circled around Asakura and the others curiously.

"Mmm, the omurice looks pretty good, and the pasta with meat sauce is also hard to part with... surprisingly there’s even prime rib steak, is this really just a cat cafe?"

Yanami spoke while drooling over the menu.

Probably to look for some references, she glanced at Yukino beside her.

Then she discovered that the other party had bought a pile of cat snacks and canned food, and was currently using cat treat sticks to lure a swarm of cats over.

Although she didn’t dislike cats, Yanami always felt that cats would come over when she was eating, making it easy for cat hair to fall into the food, so she subconsciously leaned back with the menu.

As a result, she bumped into Asakura, and even half of her body snuggled into his arms.

The girl’s two cheeks gradually heated up, turning slightly red.

Although she didn’t do it on purpose, from an outsider’s perspective, it looked as if she was diving into his arms.

Shameless! Truly too shameless!

She turned her head wanting to explain her actions just now, only to see Asakura’s face looking a bit pale.

"What’s wrong?" the girl asked concernedly.

"Too... too..." Asakura seemed to be enduring immense pain, drawing in cold air.

"Too what?" the girl asked timidly.

"You’re too heavy, you’re pressing on my foot so much it hurts."

"..."

Yanami was heavily struck; she lost interest even in the menu, and the whole person slumped motionless on the tatami inside the cat cafe, just like a corpse with three times the weight of an ordinary person.

That’s right, at the moment she snuggled into Asakura’s arms, probably because of the close intimate contact, the progress bar surged instantly, recovering another Yanami, resulting in Yanami’s current body weight recovering to the level of three people.

Under the condition of being completely unprepared, the leg sitting cross-legged on the tatami suddenly bore a weight of over 150 kilograms (Note), and even Asakura thought his hip joint was about to be dislocated.

Fortunately, Asakura’s experience with sudden situations was quite rich. At the moment he realized his pelvis was about to be dislocated, he cast a layer of [Scale] on himself, which prevented a tragedy.

On the side, Yukino had already completely immersed herself in the world of cats, using cat-teasing sticks rented from the shop to lure the surrounding cats, from time to time letting out laughter that could absolutely not be heard inside the activity room.

Asakura glanced at her, shaking his head: "As expected, as long as people interact with cute animals, they will unconsciously change their tone of voice..."

"There’s no such thing." Yukino said while non-nonchalantly putting away the cat-teasing stick.

Despite saying this, the cats showed no tendency to disperse, but instead were becoming more and more numerous.

"Why are they all surrounding us?! Aren’t there no more cat toys?" Yanami complained.

"Probably because there are still many cat snacks over by Yukinoshita." Asakura said calmly.

However, he also more or less felt that the cats seemed very interested in him as well; even though Asakura hadn’t bought any cat snacks, there were still several cats circling him.

Interestingly, most of the cats in this shop were purebred cats, mainly Ragdolls, Siamese, and British Shorthairs (including silver-shaded and gold-shaded), but besides the purebred cats, there were also some tabby cats with not-so-good appearances, or rather, "Chinese Garden Cats."

And the ones surrounding Asakura were mainly this group of Chinese Garden Cats.

Could it be that because they had wandered in the wild before, they now sensed a similar aura on him?

Asakura couldn’t help but feel a bit distressed.

"Don’t stare into the cats’ eyes; they will interpret it as a challenge."

Just then, Yukino spoke softly beside Asakura.

"Can I become the boss just by defeating them in a fight?" Asakura looked at a tabby cat with subtle patterns that made one feel familiar and asked seriously.

"Isn’t that just complete bullying of the weak? If you want cats to take the initiative to get close, you can do this..." the girl raised her scallion-white index finger, and a moment later a cat came over to sniff it, using its head to rub against her finger: "Although I don’t know the principle, cats seem to like rubbing their fingers like this. It seems they like to leave their own scent on sharp things through this method."

Asakura blinked his eyes, feeling that compared to the cats being stroked and held, the Yukino with a rare gentle (smiling) look on her face at this time left a deeper impression.

"Server, order, I want a classic meatball pasta!"

It seemed she had already gotten a bit used to the situation of being surrounded by cats; Yanami raised her hand with "I really came to a cat cafe to eat something" written all over her face and spoke to the server.

Asakura glanced at Yanami who was eagerly waiting for the food, confirmed that her current magical status was very stable, and then continued chatting with Yukino.

"Although it might be my overthinking, but from just now, you seem to have something you want to say to me?"

"If I must say it, it’s not that ’I’ have something to say."

Yukino stopped her cat-stroking action, she paused for a moment and said: "It’s my sister, she seems to want to find an opportunity to treat you to a meal, to thank you for saving her life... Can I ask, when did you save the world again without anyone knowing?"

"This matter wasn’t that serious, but I always feel like what you wanted to ask doesn’t seem to be this?"

Asakura raised his eyebrows, looking at Yukinoshita and said.

"...I asked Haruno several times, but she was unwilling to say what happened, but since it’s ’saving her life,’ that means she encountered a danger that would threaten her life, right?"

Yukino asked concernedly.

"Even if you knew about this kind of thing, it wouldn’t be of much use, right? Besides, it has already passed..."

"It’s not a question of whether it’s useful or not, but that I don’t want to know nothing, and then suddenly receive a death notice from a relative one day."

The girl’s gaze looked fixedly at Asakura.

"Reality is just like this; moreover, even if one can truly avoid threats from the supernatural to a certain extent, humans still face dangers every day: food poisoning, car accidents, sudden death... as long as one is not careful, it’s possible to part with the world forever."

Asakura shook his head: "My suggestion is, don’t look back too much, and don’t worry too much about the future; it’s better to grasp the present."

"After all, who can say that the current daily life is not composed of countless miracles?"

Note: Yanami’s specific weight is unknown, but in the original work, it seems to have been mentioned that the weight of two Yanamis is definitely over 100kg; in other words, a single Yanami is over 50kg, but although her height is only 156cm, her cup size is Ecup, which shows that although Yanami is chubby, she is definitely the type that feels very squishy and soft to hold.
