Chapter 323. [The Great Panty War]

“Ah!?” “Huh!?” “Hmm?”

My voice, along with Angu Ogu and Ah-nee’s, overlapped.

On the streaming screen, my BMI was clearly visible.

≫Oh no! Iroha-chan, hide it quickly!

≫It’s too late for that now, lol

≫If we reverse calculate from her height… Iroha-chan’s weight is (bleep) kilos!?

≫Whoa, isn’t that too light? She’s seriously like a little girl.

≫Iroha-chan, if you don’t eat properly, you won’t grow up!

≫This is definitely going to be clipped, haha

“Oops, I messed up.”

“Sorry, Iroha. I couldn’t hide it in time.”

“No, it’s nobody’s fault; it can’t be helped.”

Fortunately, revealing my weight isn’t a fatal blow for me.

Still, when something you’ve been hiding gets exposed, it makes you feel like you screwed up a bit.

“…Ah-nee, Angu Ogu, what’s BMI?”

“Anego, let’s keep quiet for a bit, okay?”

≫I had a feeling since only one person had a different reaction, haha

≫It’s an abbreviation for Body Mass Index, calculated by dividing your weight by the square of your height.

≫Well, in Iroha-chan’s case, her height is so low that it’s hard to measure BMI accurately.

“Small, small… everyone, you’re too noisy! And for those who keep commenting about my weight, I’m going to block you if you write it again, okay?”

≫Yikes!?

≫Sorry about that.

≫Wow, Iroha-chan is so mature! So tall!

“Is that sarcasm!? If you’re trying to flatter me, at least do it in a way that I can’t tell!”

≫Iroha-han has grown up so much.

≫Really, she’s so cute.

≫So earnest, too.

“Sorry, I take that back! Everything just sounded sarcastic!? Ugh, enough about height and weight; let’s move on with the game. First, we need to stretch before exercising.”

I mimic the pose shown on the game screen and sit down with my legs spread out.

It’s a standard forward bend, but…

“Iroha, stop! Facing forward is bad!”

“Huh? Eek!?”

I almost revealed what was under my skirt, so I hurriedly stood up while holding it down.

I shot a glance at the comments section.

“It… it didn’t show, right?”

I really don’t want to get banned for something like this.

MyTube has been strict lately. Even swimsuits can get you banned sometimes.

That’s why Angu Ogu’s agency has set up its own subscription-based fan club site.

A bit more risque content or videos can be viewed there.

≫Close one!

≫No, but in my mind’s eye, I clearly saw Iroha-chan’s panties!

≫Wait, those were definitely black spats!

The world eventually divided into the Panty faction and the Spats faction, leading to the Underwear War.

Then the Drawers faction emerged, turning the war into a three-way battle.

But the Panty faction remained dominant.

Just when it seemed they’d secure an easy victory, the Pumpkin Panties faction broke away.

Meanwhile, the Drawers faction tried to absorb the Pumpkin Panties faction by claiming, “Pumpkin panties are a type of drawers,” but they refused.

Then the Shorts faction appeared, throwing the war into further chaos… or not.

“Enough already!? Stop saying stupid stuff, it’s stretching time!”

“That’s right. I alone should know the color of Iroha’s panties.”

“Not what I meant at all!?”

“By the way, the color of Iroha-chan’s panties right now is Nee~”

“What are you about to say!?”

Anyway, it seems the inside of my skirt wasn’t visible after all.

I sat back down, slightly angled this time, and resumed the forward bend.

“But I’m really bad at stretching… ugh~”

“What are you talking about? There’s no such thing as being bad or good at stretching.”

“…”

“Hey, Iroha? Hurry up and bend your body forward!”

“I’m already bending, though…”

“Seriously!? Your body is way too stiff! Even a teddy bear could do a better forward bend!”

“Even if you say that…”

≫Iroha-chan, it’s so bad it’s almost artistic, lol

≫This girl, when it comes to moving her body, there’s ‘no one to her right’.

≫↑Don’t go making up new sayings, lol

“Can’t be helped, Iroha-chan! Onee-chan will help you~!”

“Ah, wait!? I don’t need help! Don’t do anything!”

Ah-nee clings to me like she’s hugging me, wrapping her arms around my stomach.

Then she pushes my body forward…

“Aaaaaahhh!? I’m gonna break, I’m gonna break!?”

≫It looks wholesome, though.

≫This feels like some kind of torture device.

≫Anego, you’re unnecessarily strong.

“Hee-hee, hoo. Hee, hee, hoo.”

“Phew~ Good job!”

A few seconds later, I lay flat, tears in my eyes.

Am I okay? Are my hip joints still intact? I can’t move anymore…

“Iroha, sorry you’re in such a state, but we haven’t even started exercising yet, you know?”

“Oh yeah…”

I sluggishly lifted my body.

When I checked the game screen, it looked like the main story was finally about to begin.

“Sigh, taking detours like this just makes me more tired… So, what should I do now?”

“Today’s goal for Iroha-chan is to defeat the first boss! First, let’s take down all the small fry!”

“Okay, so I deal fitness damage to the enemies to get a fit body, right?”

“…? Less talking, more moving! Look, the enemies are coming!”

“Okay…”

I reluctantly started exercising.

***

“N-no… huff… piece of cake… cough, cough!?”

“What part of that was easy!? You’ve only defeated one small fry, and you’re already out of breath!?”

I was sure of it.

This challenge… is going to be tough.
