Profile[]
Manga[]
Mugi is forced to gamble in the Fasciation Hall by Kirari Momobami in order to take down Terano Totobami or Yumeko Jabami. If she fails, she will be assigned a Life plan along with losing her one vote.
After challenging Ryota Suzui, Arata Ooinu reveals that he’s allied with Terano, Yumi Totobami, Mugi Sarugaya, and Moe. There is a flashback of the moment Terano convinced Arata, Mugi, and Moe to ally with her. She says that she can rescue them. Terano knows about their Life Plans. They are about making Terano or Yumeko drop out of the election. She wants to help them to bring Yumeko down. Moe lets Terano know that she still can’t be trusted. She adds that there is no guarantee that they won’t be betrayed. Terano threatens to attack all of them first if they don’t ally with her. Yumi gives the housepets a knife and tells them that they can stab her if Terano betrays them.
Nanami is thinking about her life schedule and she thinks Yumeko knows about it. Nanami has to defeat Terano. Moe entered the room of Nanami one second before the points were revealed. Nanami is terrified, as she only received one point. Moe wants to be challenged by Yumeko. Mugi had given her all of her points. Moe now has twelve points. Yumeko chooses to challenge Mugi. Moe and Mugi are shocked by this decision. Yumeko wins the showdown five to zero.
Moe is panicking. She doesn’t trust Terano anymore. She ends up getting twelve points. Moe tells herself that she’ll defeat Yumeko and fulfill her orders. However, she realizes something.
The showdown of the fourth round is between Moe and Terano. This surprises Yumeko, Ryota, and Nanami. Moe tells Terano that she constantly looked down on the housepets. Yumi says that Terano didn’t. The showdown begins. Terano won with thirteen against twelve. Moe is convinced that Terano cheated. Yumeko explains to Moe that it’s possible to score thirteen points every round.
Moe thinks that Terano knew that and asks her why she didn’t tell her. Terano responds that NPCs have to continually attack because of their life schedule. If the housepets knew that strategy, they’d all collude and defend themselves. That would go against the conditions they needed to fulfill as NPCs. Thus, Terano believed that not giving them this information would be the best thing for their sake.
Moe believes that this is exactly what looking down on her is. She pulls out the knife Yumi had given to the housepets and attacks her. Sukaru used a stick to stun Moe. She then asks people watching through the cameras for a health counselor. Yumi tells Terano not to worry. She believes that someday the housepets will know that Terano was just thinking for their happiness.
