Campione Scumbag in Mash-up Anime

*CLICK!*

When the bedroom door opened, Ren didn't need to turn around to know who had entered.

The soft footsteps, the distinct vanilla scent, and the calming presence—it could only be Itsuki.

If it were Yotsuba, she would have knocked first.

As he expected, the pregnant Itsuki walked over, carrying a glass of milk in her hand.

"You must be tired after school. I brought you a drink, hubby."

Hubby.

The word sounded natural from her lips, as if their relationship had already lasted for years. They weren't even officially married or engaged yet.

Ren smiled faintly, closing his laptop temporarily and taking the offered glass.

"Um, thanks. Itsuki-sensei."

Itsuki frowned, clearly displeased with the title.

"Don't call me sensei. It's weird, and besides, we've already—"

"—crossed the normal boundaries of a teacher-student relationship?" Ren finished her sentence with a mischievous smile.

"You're so…!" Itsuki's face turned red. She let out a soft huff, placing the glass of milk on the table before sitting on the edge of the bed.

With her growing pregnancy, her movements were a bit more careful, but her expression remained as gentle as ever.

"Ehehehe..."

Ren just chuckled. From the corner of his eye, he could see Itsuki sitting there, rubbing her slightly swollen belly.

Although she often complained about Ren's childish behavior, she secretly enjoyed the attentive presence of her husband.

"Thank you, hubby." Itsuki suddenly expressed her gratitude.

"For what?" Ren asked, confused.

Itsuki clasped her hands together, staring at her growing belly.

"For staying here… for not leaving me after I got pregnant."

"..."

Ren fell silent. He could sense deeper emotions hidden behind those words.

Before he could ask further, Itsuki continued in a soft voice.

"I want to tell you something… about my mother."

"..."

Ren raised an eyebrow. Although he already knew the true story, he chose to listen quietly.

Taking a deep breath, Itsuki began to recount the past of her mother, Rena.

The biological father of the quintuplets wasn't Nakano Maruo.

The man who should have been their father figure wasn't the one who gave them his blood.

Their real father was Mudō Jinnosuke, a middle-aged man in his 40s who worked as a high school teacher. Rena was just one of Jinnosuke's students during her high school years.

For whatever reason, Rena fell in love with Jinnosuke—a man more than three decades older than her.

As a student, she should have seen him as a teacher, not as a man she could love.

However, feelings couldn't be controlled so easily.

Jinnosuke himself initially kept his distance. He knew how dangerous such a relationship could be.

But Rena was persistent.

Whether it was her charm, her sincerity, or perhaps the man's own mistake of not being firm enough—Jinnosuke eventually fell into the trap of emotions that shouldn't have existed.

Their relationship unfolded in the shadows of secrecy.

When Rena found out she was pregnant, she was faced with a huge dilemma.

What should she do?

Tell the truth? That would undoubtedly ruin her life and Jinnosuke's as well.

But reality was crueler than Rena had imagined.

After Jinnosuke learned that Rena was pregnant with quintuplets, the man disappeared without a trace.

No message. No explanation. Just painful silence.

Rena was left alone with an overwhelming responsibility.

She was too young to raise five children on her own, but she had no other choice. She refused to abort the babies in her womb.

Perhaps due to trauma, or perhaps because she didn't want her daughters to end up like her—Rena always reminded her five daughters to be careful when choosing a man.

However, even though Rena managed to raise them, her sacrifices were too great.

The heavy burden she carried alone slowly eroded her health.

Working tirelessly, the accumulating stress, and the constant pressure of life…

Eventually, her body gave out.

She passed away at a relatively young age, leaving her five daughters with wounds that couldn't fully heal.

"..."

Itsuki finished her story with a trembling voice.

"Isn't it ironic? My mother fell in love with a high school teacher and ended up pregnant. Meanwhile, I… became the teacher who got pregnant by her student. The difference is, I'm luckier than my mother. You take responsibility for your actions, hubby. Unlike my biological father, who was a scumbag and ran away. You… you'll never run away from this, right?"

"Of course. I'll never leave my woman, even if you try to run away from me!"

Hearing Ren's answer, Itsuki stood up, her steps firm but slightly hurried.

Itsuki leaned in, taking the initiative. The kiss came unexpectedly. Her tongue boldly slipped into Ren's lips, as if trying to break all the tension between them.

"...!!!"

Ren was surprised when Itsuki suddenly pulled him into the kiss. Usually, he was the one who took the initiative, but this time, Itsuki was leading.

The kiss was filled with emotions hard to put into words—not just affection, but also trust, relief, and deep feelings she had kept hidden in her heart.

Ren could feel Itsuki's slightly trembling fingers gripping his shoulders, pulling him closer. Their lips pressed tightly together, warm and seeking comfort in the silence of the room, filled only with the sound of their breaths.

When they finally parted, Itsuki looked at him with sparkling eyes, her cheeks flushed, but her lips curved into a small smile.

"I just wanted to make sure this is real." Itsuki whispered softly.

"I'll always be here for you." Ren gently touched her cheek.

Thirsty after the kiss, Ren picked up the glass of milk Itsuki had brought, which was sitting on the table. Without thinking, he took a sip. However, as soon as it touched his tongue, an odd taste hit him.

"Huh?" Ren froze, his confusion evident on his face. It didn't taste like regular milk; instead, it was… chewy and slightly thick.

"Did you notice, hubby?" Itsuki asked shyly.

"Could it be..."

Ren looked at Itsuki, who was now standing with her arms crossed over her chest.

"That's not regular milk. That's my breast milk!"

"What?!"

"Um, now my breasts are the biggest among the quintuplets. They feel so heavy and sore from producing milk, and it's all your fault!"

"That makes sense."

Thinking about all the things he did to Itsuki during their nightly activities, Ren didn't deny that it was indeed his fault.

"I should start cooking dinner."

Feeling embarrassed by her bold actions, Itsuki stepped out of the room.

"Tch Tch Tch... If it were before, Itsuki wouldn't have done something like that. She's changed, becoming more mischievous. But... I like this change."

Being able to turn a serious and earnest woman like Itsuki into someone so bold, Ren felt proud as a scumbag.

"Let's get back to work."

Setting aside his satisfaction in turning Itsuki into a love slave, Ren continued hacking into the government database.
