"Chapter 9" is the ninth chapter of the "Isekai Ojisan" Series.
Summary[]
Once during March 2018, Takafumi returns home to find Sumika with someone who looks like Elf from his Ojisan's memories.
Forty-five minutes earlier, Sumika lectures Uncle about the social decline of middle-aged men in the appropriate workforce and how he, as a YouTuber, isn't financially adequate. On the other hand, Uncle brushes it off, and Sumika mentions that Takafumi isn't able to have a girlfriend live with him due to him living there. Hearing that Uncle suggests that Sumika live there as well, but Takafumi refuses that suggestion and leaves to do some errands.
Once Takafumi is gone, Uncle tries to have a heart-to-heart with Sumika about Takafumi's relationship with her. However, Uncle's comparisons with videogame romances don't align with her. Hence, Uncle steps out of the room, and when Sumika tries to apologize to him, Takafumi's "Aunt" appears. Takafumi's Aunt looks exactly like Elf, only in Uncle's clothing; she then tries to continue her heart-to-heart with Sumika until Takafumi returns home and outs her as Uncle. After an epiphany, Takafumi suggests they create another YouTube video about Uncle's transformation magic. Although Uncle refuses at first, Takafumi convinces him after promising to play Guardian Heroes with him.
After the video was in the process of being uploaded to the internet, they watched a memory of Takafumi's past with Sumiko that reveals their relationship was... bittersweet. Once the video was fully uploaded to the internet, they watched it. Although it was a significant success in viewership, Uncle is left despondent how the video didn't include him playing Guardian Heroes and reforms back into his true self. This shocks Sumika as Takafumi cheers about the success of the video they uploaded. Despite Uncle's pride as a YouTuber torn to shreds, a deluxe sushi dinner was enjoyed when the payout from the video was delivered.
