「Kuuuh…… Fuh.」
I let loose a protracted and large yawn on my technique to faculty. Despite the fact that the summer season trip was over and it was already September, you possibly can nonetheless really feel the summer season lingering within the air, the clouds and the blue sky.
The explanation for my yawning was easy: yesterday I went to sleep approach later than I initially supposed to. And it was all Rust’s fault, for sending me a message within the useless of the evening saying: “You haven’t logged into Nephilim Hole as of late. Why is that?”
I by no means supposed to log into Nephilim Hole that evening, however someway I let myself to be dragged into Rust’s tempo, and we participated in three duels in a row, two of which I managed to win and one I managed to lose.
「What topic do we’ve got deliberate for the primary interval at this time once more……? Was it Japanese? I should guarantee that I gained’t go to sleep in the course of the category……」
If it was the Historical past class it will not be so dangerous. However the Japanese class is one thing else. Particularly since our Japanese instructor, Horikawa-sensei, tends to mutter beneath his nostril and communicate in such a monotonous tone that it will possibly immediately put you to sleep. I must preserve mu guard up. Plus, you by no means know when he may throw a pop quiz your approach and what questions he may ask you there.
「G-Good morning!」
「Uoooah!?」
What’s it!? What the hell is occurring!?
「F-Fancy assembly you, right here?」
「Aaah, it’s simply you, Saiga-san? Morning.」
That scared the residing sh*t out of me…… Being known as from behind hastily like that made my shoulders tremble in shock and I even jumped up a bit of bit.
Wanting proper behind me, I might see Saiga-san standing there casually, along with her face barely tinged purple. She will need to have seen me and needed to be well mannered and say her greetings.
「I-If it wouldn’t be an excessive amount of hassle…… Would you want to speak with me, till we…… get to high school……?」
「Eh? I imply, yeah, positive, why not……」
Despite the fact that the proposal was as informal as they might get, for some motive I felt like proper now I used to be struck with one thing akin to a uncommon and even hidden occasion. Or perhaps it was extra like a problem flag?
However no matter might we presumably discuss……? We might technically discuss ShanFro over and over, however wouldn’t that get stale fairly quick? Okay then, what are the informal matters that standard college students can discuss?
「That jogs my memory. Saiga-san, are you extra of a literary sort? Or perhaps a science sort?」
「Umm, I’d say I’m extra of a literary division. That’s what I’ve chosen……」
「Actually now? Identical right here. It’s not that I don’t like math, however I’m not all that good with it both.」
It’s not that I can’t get good ends in it, however they’re common at finest. And in the case of getting good scores, liberal arts are far simpler to get a great rating in them, so I don’t see why I shouldn’t goal at simply that.
「T-That’s proper! That’s precisely proper! Me too, umm…… It’s not that I’m dangerous at math, however I’d a lot fairly do liberal arts……」
Ooohhh, that’s it! That’s what I’m speaking about! We’re making small speak right here! Small speak like actual highschool college students ought to do! Speaking about finding out, that’s precisely what college students ought to do!
「Say, Rakuro?」
「Hmm?」
I’ve to confess, coming to high school along with Saiga-san was actually refreshing of an expertise. Making small speak, appearing like a pupil the way it on the apex of his youth and enjoys it to the fullest. Nonetheless, there was one factor that I do probably not accounted for. It will be solely pure for different individuals to start out speaking about it when Saiga Rei got here to high school along with Hizutome Rakuro of all individuals.
「Is that true that you simply went to high school along with Saiga-san?」
「Hm? I don’t suppose it’s precisely proper to say that we went collectively. We simply occurred to stumble upon one another and we went collectively the remainder of the way in which whereas speaking.」
There are principally two sorts of associates on this world: constructive and detrimental. And proper now a type of associates which can be a bit of bit nearer to the constructive aspect rushes in the direction of me with a sparkle in his eyes that jogs my memory of a housewife that desires to listen to the newest gossips from different housewives.
And since my social abilities will not be all that nice to start with, I used to be unable to choose up that once I stated these phrases a minimum of the third of the category’s consideration turned in the direction of me. However like I stated, I used to be completely unaware of that reality, for higher or for worse.
「Dude, about that…… You speak as if it was one thing fully pure, however it will be simpler for any of us to ace the take a look at from a overseas language than simply occur to “bump” into Saiga Rei on our technique to faculty. We’re speaking about THAT Saiga Rei. The one who’s at all times pushed to and again from faculty by automobile. And also you simply occurred to stroll to high school collectively along with her?」
「I dunno man, for me it will nonetheless be simpler to attempt to learn an article in a overseas language than truly have the ability to perceive the girl’s coronary heart.」
「…… Dude, you’d higher by no means dare to say a line like that in entrance of a woman.」
I can’t be so positive about that, however I feel that proper about now my face will need to have had the expression that went one thing alongside the traces of: “Huh? Why is that?”.
After that I used to be pestered to spill the beans about that entire “Going to high school along with Saiga Rei” stuff, nevertheless it was truly extra annoying than the rest, primarily as a result of other than that going to high school collectively the one occasion we had in widespread was that one time when we’ve got met in entrance of a comfort retailer purely accidentally.
Then I advised him that if he appears so on this topic, he can go to Saiga-san and ask her all about it himself. Nonetheless, that comment appeared to have fallen on deaf ears, largely due to the truth that lastly the germs from his pierced ears (he did that in secret final yr) have been lastly beginning to impair his skill to listen to. He additionally stated the next:
「I’m afraid that’s just about inconceivable. Saiga-san is sort of a lovely flower, unequalled in its magnificence but additionally inaccessible to us regular flowers. Solely toxic weeds might hope of stepping into contact along with her purely accidentally, just because they have no idea their place.」
「And who the hell do you name a ‘toxic weed’, huh? Let’s hear it!」
「Ahhhgh! Cease it! Cease it! Cease pulling on my ears like that! You’ll reopen my piercing holes!!!」
It’s not even about calling me a weed. It’s alright, actually. However make no mistake: if you wish to name me a weed, a minimum of name me one thing that’s fleeting and unable to be caught, like a dandelion. That’s the form of man I aspire to be.

Kyogoku: That’s a horrible technique to introduce somebody, however I can’t actually deny any of it.
Sanraku: Don’t fear, I’ll get used to it.
King Pencilgton: Properly, in the intervening time I attempted to go to numerous info brokers to get some intel on “Black Wolves” and their inside affairs, however regrettably I used to be unable to be taught a lot by doing so. They’re actually good at preserving themselves to themselves.

Kyogoku: It’s actually thrilling if you concentrate on it.
