Chapter 1 - Transported into the 2D World

[Superpower—Time Stop]

[But the drawback is ■■■■■]

Rei opens his eyes and sees a string of text.

A few seconds later, the text disappears, as if it had never appeared.

Superpower? What's going on?

But Rei quickly remembers something else.

"I remember… I wasn't… dead, was I?"

After graduating from university, he became a 007 corporate slave at an internet company, working overtime until he was rushed to the ICU, where his consciousness finally faded into the cold silence of death.

And now…

Rei looks around.

Brilliant lights shine in all colors, music surrounds him, and countless fans wave their glow sticks, cheering and applauding.

On stage, several girls in red and black pleated skirts are dancing and singing passionately.

Their dance is captivating, their voices enchanting, drawing wave after wave of cheers from the audience.

He realizes he's at a concert.

Transported?

Rei can't help but think, and he searches for his phone and passport.

Through the passport, he learns his current situation.

He's from a major Eastern country, seventeen years old, with a student visa in Japan, likely a high school student.

As for more information, he knows nothing.

He has no memory of this life's 'him'.

At this moment, the girls on stage seem to be wrapping up their performance.

A girl with long purple-black hair waves her right hand passionately, her vibrant energy and delicate face illuminated by the spotlight, exuding a charming aura. Her uniform-clad figure radiates youthful vitality with every step.

"Everyone, thank you,"

"Thank you for your continued support of B-Komachi,"

"And I hope you'll keep supporting us,"

"B-Komachi will bring you more and better performances."

Hoshino Ai, the eternal center of the B-Komachi idol group.

Holding the microphone, her starry eyes suddenly land on a man in the front row.

"This time, I'm surprised,"

"Ai-chan was actually boldly confessed to by a male fan who likes her! My first time! Wow, so excited, so happy,"

"But… Ai-chan needs to focus on her idol career now, wanting to bring more captivating performances to her fans, so, sorry, Ai-chan doesn't want to fall in love!"

As Hoshino Ai's regretful words fall, a burst of laughter erupts.

"Hahaha, Ai-chan is so funny! So kind!"

"This is the Ai-chan we love."

"Wuwuwu, why didn't I confess? If I had, I'd be the first man to confess to Ai-chan!"

The audience's gaze focuses on the man, making him the center of attention.

"But as a reward for boldly confessing to Ai-chan, Ai-chan has decided to take a photo with him, hehehe."

Instantly, the audience's envy and admiration flare up.

"Wow! What a treat!"

"I want to take a photo with Ai-chan too! Ai-chan is so kind, rejecting his confession but giving him a photo as compensation, I want that too!"

"This guy's so lucky, he must be chosen for the strange game, I'm sure he'll clear it, hahaha."

"Pick me, I'll definitely come back alive from the strange game, become the winner of life, and Ai-chan will be my girlfriend, the future smells so good!"

"Who's stinking? Kick him!"

Intense envy fills the air.

Regret, so many regret not confessing!

At this moment,

The man at the center of attention ignores the envious and jealous gazes around him, focusing on the beautiful girl with long purple hair on stage.

Hoshino Ai,

Isn't she the heroine of Oshi no Ko?

Has he been transported into the world of Oshi no Ko, or is it a mixed 2D world with other settings?

Compared to the former, he hopes it's the latter.

So many 2D heroines, he wants to meet them all!

Like Mai, like the superstar Mai, a superstar is better than an idol!

In that moment, Rei's mind flashes with the names and faces of countless 2D heroines.

This must be compensation for his overwork-induced death, all his past luck used up for this post-death transportation.

And he has a superpower, Time Stop no less.

Its strength is unknown, and it has unknown drawbacks.

But this power can make him soar in this new world.

Wealth, power, beauty—things he could never reach in his past life—are now within easy grasp.

Becoming the ultimate winner in life, surrounded by beauties, is no longer a dream.

As for the drawbacks?

Unknown drawbacks mean no drawbacks.

...

The concert ends.

Bathed in the envious and jealous gazes of the audience, Rei waits for the crowd to disperse.

He sees the girl with long purple hair in a beautiful red and black uniform descend from the stage, a faint smile on her face as she approaches him.

Hoshino Ai,

Gazing at the tall, beautiful girl just a meter away, Rei feels a fleeting flutter in his heart, even catching a hint of her sweet fragrance.

A goddess-level girl like this was unattainable in his past life, not even worth thinking about.

But now… with Time Stop, what woman is out of reach?

Rei's confidence is overflowing.

"Thank you for liking and confessing to me, really… thank you so much."

Hoshino Ai expresses her gratitude once more, bowing deeply, drawing cheers from the remaining fans for her kindness and sweetness.

They wish they could be treated like that.

"You thanking me ≠ you agreeing, I get it."

"Uh."

Hoshino Ai pauses,

"Don't worry, I won't bother you again, and I won't become an extreme fan and stab you with a knife."

Hoshino Ai subconsciously stiffens, a bad feeling rising in her heart.

This is… a veiled threat, right?

It must be!

"Cough cough cough, okay, okay,"

The manager, a blond man in a suit, takes out a Polaroid camera and points it at the two.

Hoshino Ai, feeling uneasy, stands beside Rei,

"Smile, are you too nervous to take a photo with Ai-chan? Haha…"

Hoshino Ai moves closer, raising her right hand in a big "yes" gesture,

'Click…'

The photo is taken.

Hoshino Ai takes the photo, writes the time and her name on it with a colored pen, adding a few hearts,

"Here, I hope you'll continue to support me, Ai-chan looks forward to your support!"

She flashes a sweet, playful smile.

"Support? Maybe in the next life!"

"Eh!"

Hoshino Ai freezes, and the manager, who had just taken a step, stops too.

"This life, I'm going to support Mai, Mai is definitely better."

Hoshino Ai: ???

What's so great about Sakashima Mai?

Hoshino Ai's smile freezes on her face.

At this moment,

Rei considers using Time Stop to test its effects.

His gaze falls on Hoshino Ai, quickly scanning her.

Hoshino Ai subconsciously feels something is wrong.

"Ai, my Ai…"

Suddenly,

From the shadows nearby comes a low, suppressed male voice.

A man in a black hooded jacket approaches, head down, muttering continuously.

"Ai-chan… is mine,"

"For Ai-chan, I… came back alive, I survived the strange game… came back alive,"

"Ai-chan, I support… you,"

"Tonight, Ai-chan… stay with me…"

...

Hoshino Ai looks at the approaching black-clad man, her fear intensifying.

"Hey, stop, you…"

The blond manager suddenly screams in terror, as if seeing something horrifying, and collapses to the ground.

"Saito-san…"

Hoshino Ai shouts.

The black-clad man rushes over, cackling,

"Dare not support Ai, die,"

He turns, facing Rei, his eyes seeming to emit something, and a dagger appears in his hand, reflecting metallic light in the dim stage lights.

Rei had planned to stay low-key, just observing what would happen.

Now,

"No more pretending."

Time Stop activates.

'Zzzzt…'

A faint, silent electric current flashes.

The world seems to freeze.

The dagger-wielding man is mid-lunge, Hoshino Ai's eyes wide with terror, everything seemingly locked in place.

Rei first grabs the man's dagger, then instinctively tries to rub it, changing his mind and approaching Hoshino Ai, waving his hand, twisting her cheek, poking and touching her.

Throughout, Hoshino Ai remains unresponsive.

"It's really Time Stop, but I wonder if the world is truly frozen, or if I'm moving at a million times the speed, making everything seem frozen,"

He approaches the black-clad man, yanks off his hood,

Rei pauses,

He notices a black bead stuck to the man's forehead.

Decoration? Mutation?

Rei feels this world isn't as peaceful as it seems.

'Click…'

Through the fabric, Rei removes the black bead, wrapping it in layers of cloth and pocketing it.

Next…

'Thud thud thud…'

Rei punches the black-clad man's abdomen repeatedly.

"Still want to kill me?"

"Extreme fan?"

"Without me, Hoshino Ai would've been stabbed to death by you tonight,"

Punch after punch lands, a storm of blows raining down on the man.

After the beating, Rei adjusts the man's position and the dagger's placement, carefully wiping away fingerprints.

He looks at Hoshino Ai, twisting her cheek one last time,

"This is your reward. Without me, you wouldn't have ended up well tonight."

Time Stop ends.

The world seems to resume its motion.

'Die… ugh… argh…'

The black-clad man cries out in pain, staggering and collapsing to the ground.

Rei pulls Hoshino Ai away, shielding her,

At this moment, Hoshino Ai is shocked.

What did she just see? The world froze, the man moved freely in that frozen world, beating the black-clad man and setting things up, while she was groped and touched, unable to resist.

She tried to move, to escape, but couldn't.

Her body was completely unresponsive.

Until the world returned to normal.

Hoshino Ai swallows, her large eyes filled with shock.

In her vision, only the man's back remains.

The male fan who confessed to her and was rejected is a superpower user, likely with Time Stop, probably gained from a strange game!

Hoshino Ai can't help but worry and fear, yet she's also curious.

A living, powerful strange game player!

A legendary figure!

Rei notices the girl's terror,

A young girl facing a crazed fan and a bloody scene would naturally be afraid.

"Ugh, ahhh…"

The smell of blood spreads, red liquid oozing from the man's body.

"Why… is this… happening…"

"I… I still wanted to be with Ai…"

He reaches out to Hoshino Ai, trying to grab the terrified girl.

"Ahhh…"

His final words turn into a desperate scream.

The man gasps his last breath, lying motionless on the ground.

Dead.

Hoshino Ai realizes the black-clad attacker is dead, her hands clasped tightly, her mind in chaos, her body trembling slightly.

Fifteen minutes later, the police arrive, the body is taken away, and the manager, Saito, still in shock, is sent to the hospital.

Rei and Hoshino Ai are taken to the nearest police station for questioning.

About half an hour later,

The questioning and statements end,

The two are released from the station.

At this moment,

Hoshino Ai is still shaken, clutching her outerwear, her mental state fragile.

"Can you take me to the nearest hotel? It's about two hundred meters away, I remember there's one there."

She hasn't forgotten Rei could harm her, but thinking of his unreasonable superpower, Hoshino Ai knows she's overthinking.

If he had ill intentions, she couldn't resist, she'd be at his mercy, with no recourse.

Midnight, no moonlight, only stars and streetlights offer faint illumination.

Rei agrees.

The two walk side by side,

Unnoticed,

The fog thickens.

The surroundings grow quieter, not even insect sounds remain. The night wind blows, carrying a chill.

Soon,

A building glows in the distance, red and purple lights the only brightness in the darkness.

Rei leads Hoshino Ai toward it,

As they approach, he freezes.

恋の心ラブホテル.

Love Heart Love Hotel?

Hoshino Ai wants him to take her to a love hotel, what's she implying?

Are 2D heroines this forward?

Is she offering herself?

Tonight, this is taking off.

At this moment,

Hoshino Ai looks at the hotel, her face suddenly pales.

"Ding!"

"Welcome to Love Heart Love Hotel."
