Chapter 56: Protagonist Sakuta goes into action to get his main heroine
That\'s the specialty of Tokyo Metropolitan High School. Kuoh Gakuen has no such privilege but offers facilities that are no less than the number one school in Japan.
However! However, as said before. There are two reasons why Kuoh Gakuen is in high demand. Aside from the reason of the luxurious facilities - there is also another reason that this school is very famous for the many handsome boys and beautiful girls who attend here!
Tokyo Metropolitan High School also has something similar of course. However, believe me it\'s not as many and as good as Kuoh Gakuen where the school offers an unwritten privilege where students can enjoy their high school years without too many strict rules and basically basic rules like any normal high school.
It was very different from Tokyo Metropolitan High School because although the school also had many handsome boys and beautiful girls. The rules there are very strict and the students there are said to have fierce competition to pass the third year A class in order to get the special license that the school offers.
For teenagers who crave the romance of high school life. Tokyo Metropolitan High School is definitely not the best choice for romance or the sweet genre in a teenager\'s life. On the contrary, a high school like Kuoh Gakuen is the best choice for that!
This is almost known by everyone who goes to school here. They know everything mentioned above and that\'s why they are here. For example, during lunch break; many students use this time to go on dates, and those who are single still have many options such as having lunch in the cafeteria with friends while chatting and laughing - and they can also play soccer, basketball, tennis, or enjoy other facilities offered by the school.
So if you\'re walking around the outside area of the school at this time of the day. You will see a lot of beautiful and handsome teenagers feasting your eyes, especially against the backdrop of the school buildings that actually look like European-style Academies with a touch of Japanese anime that somehow blends in harmoniously.
Don\'t know who designed this school. Sakuta secretly praised that person in his heart and was very excited that he transmigrated in this world and went to school here!
Other people might not know the reason why there are so many handsome boys and handsome girls in this school. But he knew and it was because...
"There are many people from anime, manga, and novels in this school. Even the protagonists and heroines who look the most unique from others are in this school."
"Judging from anywhere, I clearly transmigrated in the crossover world and there seems to be magic in this world as well."
Excited, Sakuta was very excited. Especially when he saw two very familiar girls from a certain harem anime.
"If I\'m not mistaken. Isn\'t that Sona Sitri and Tsubaki Shinra? Gosh, doesn\'t that mean super hot girls like Rias Gremory and Akeno Himejima also go to school here?"
Actually Sakuta was walking while holding his laptop bag at the moment, and he had originally planned to write (copy) a novel in the school garden. Last night he managed to finish almost 2 volumes of the series "Re:Zero" and of course it was also thanks to his memory which somehow made him clearly remember things from his previous life.
He realized that although he didn\'t have a golden finger like the system. He had the golden finger of perfect memory or it could also be called [Photographic Memory] which is usually possessed by certain protagonists in novels.
Sakuta was certainly happy to know this. He would at least have no trouble making money. However, he would probably still find it difficult to obtain superpowers such as using magic which was actually one of the things he wanted the most whenever he dreamt of isekai.
But remembering the things from the Highschool DxD series related to the two girls who were walking in front of him. He had the idea that he could at least have superpowers or supernatural abilities. In addition, he was also naturally attracted to the two beautiful girls like Sona and Tsubaki.
After all, he was the transmigration protagonist. He must be destined to have many women in this life, right?
Sakuta was very confident. He walked up to the two who seemed to be talking about something while walking in the corridor leading to the cafeteria.
"Excuse me."
Hearing the voice of a person who seemed to be calling them from behind. Sona and Tsubaki who were actually talking about training and things about Eiji naturally turned to the source of the voice.
They saw a boy with brown hair and brown eyes who was actually quite handsome, but not more handsome than Eiji. They naturally stared at the boy expressionlessly, especially Sona - she didn\'t like to talk too much with guys of the same age other than her fiancé. However, as the student council president, she definitely still needed to socialize and speak a few words to help the other students.
"What\'s wrong student? From your uniform, you seem to be a second year student. Do you need anything from the student council members?"
It wasn\'t Sona who asked, but Tsubaki who was Sona\'s secretary and Queen. Because student council members like them had the student council sign wrapped around their right shoulder; anyone with eyes in this school should know and see clearly that they were student council members.
So Tsubaki immediately thought that the brown-haired boy in front of her might need help from the student council. Of course, her demeanor looked very formal and her face was no less serious than Sona\'s as if she could not be approached carelessly.
Unfortunately, either the brown-haired boy had low EQ or something. The boy suddenly introduced himself with a very confident posture.
"Hello, my name is Sakuta Azusagawa. I was wondering if the student council is short of people? I\'m actually interested in..."
"Sorry student Azusagawa, the student council is not short of people at the moment." Sona said quickly and cut Sakuta off before he could finish speaking.
She could see that the boy in front of her looked very flamboyant and seemed to have the intention to approach them with the excuse of joining the student council. Actually this kind of thing was not the first time it happened and Sona was quite annoyed with the male students who used tricks like this.
Besides, she was an engaged woman. Seeing a guy coming up with tricks to get close to her and her Queen. She felt very disgusted at the boy in front of her.
Tsubaki felt the same as her King and she looked at Sakuta rather coldly.
"Uh, but I haven\'t... Maybe you guys need someone to help clean up in the student council room? I can--"
"No, every student council member has a picket schedule for cleaning. So there\'s no need for extra people to do that task. Student Azusagawa, if you have some free time, you can probably join another club."
"That\'s all and we have to rush off for lunch."
After stating that, Sona indifferently turned around and continued her journey to the cafeteria. Tsubaki was the same, she naturally followed her King.
"W-wait! At least listen to me first..."
Sakuta called out to the girls again, but he seemed to be ignored. Some students who happened to see what he was doing also seemed to be whispering to each other and laughing at him.
Sakuta\'s face felt hot and he certainly felt ashamed of looking pathetic for being ignored by Sona and Tsubaki. He hurriedly went to the school garden where he planned to continue writing his novel. But unlike before, he felt like his face was slapped and he was in a very bad mood.
Without realizing it, his inner voice began to sound.
{Aren\'t I transmigrator protagonist? In many fanfics. At least I have a certain aura that makes girls supposedly interested in me!}
{But why? Why did those Sona and Tsubaki from the Highschool DxD series dare to reject me coldly and even their demeanor wasn\'t friendly to me at all?!}
{I originally planned to join Sona\'s peerage so that I could have supernatural abilities as a reincarnated devil. But Sona, ahead of that dared to reject me.}
{Damn it. I definitely won\'t give up on acquiring supernatural abilities. Even with my knowledge from my previous life, it\'s only a matter of time before I can become a wealthy tycoon by becoming a novel copywriter, recreating popular songs from my previous life and so on.}
{I really crave for magic and those supernatural things. Ugh... But calm down! I\'m the protagonist now! Although Sakuta Azusagawa isn\'t a protagonist with superpowers or anything}.
{I won\'t give up! I\'m the transmigrator protagonist who will definitely get everything in this world! Even Sona and Tsubaki, and the other heroines}.
{Including Mai from my own series. I will definitely make them all my women!}
"....." The ones who heard that were of course the heroines and of course Eiji also heard the inner voice of this new protagonist!
Eiji who was currently having lunch together with Lala and Asia in class. His lips twitched and he sighed.
[So a new protagonist appeared and it was a copywriter stream transmigrator protagonist with no super abilities other than his memories from his previous life?]
[Isn\'t this just a minor protagonist? And it happens to be the protagonist of the same franchise as Mai!]
[What should I do? Well it\'s actually quite easy to deal with this kind of protagonist].
[I have many ways to play him. But Sona and Tsubaki, good job! I love seeing the heroines slapping the protagonist\'s face!]
Sona who had just arrived at the cafeteria with Tsubaki was initially surprised to hear that the boy who had asked to join the student council was actually the protagonist!
And it was still the transmigrator protagonist who seemed to have knowledge from his previous life that made him very confident.
But that was it. Hearing the other side was just as strange as the protagonists Issei and Rito. Why exactly do these protagonists have such unkind inner voices? Although they are protagonists, they are not good protagonists at all - they are all bastards.
Although Eiji was also a bastard, but at least her fiancé knew how to please a girl and not disgust her. It was probably true what the article she read on the internet said that love is blind and she couldn\'t help but smile just because the person she loved adored her in his heart.
Although the meeting with the protagonist was a bit uncomfortable for her. But her mood soon recovered hearing Eiji praising her.
"Tsubaki, what do you want to eat? I\'ll treat you this time."
"If Kaichou says that then... I want salmon sashimi."
Tsubaki certainly did not refuse Sona who wanted to treat her. And actually this was no different from her paying for it herself since the money she used was usually the salary she got from Sona as a member of her peerage.
But why not? When her King was in a good mood due to being praised by her fiancée. Not only was she happy to be treated to a meal, she was also happy that her King\'s fiancée had praised her.
Thinking of Eiji, her King\'s fiancé. Tsubaki somehow felt rather immoral.
"By the way Kaichou. After school we\'re really going to practice?"
Hearing her Queen\'s question, Sona nodded as she and Tsubaki were enjoying lunch in the VIP cafeteria area that basically had a private room.
"Yes, I still have to practice the spells that Eiji gave me. If I manage to master them all perfectly... I feel that defeating my older sister is not impossible."
Tsubaki just nodded at this looking at Sona with a bit of envy. After all unlike her King and Rias who were given gifts like magic spells from Eiji. She was not given anything like that with her status and she felt it was natural unless she became one of Eiji\'s women.
But leaving that aside. Sona, isn\'t your motivation to defeat your own older sister a bit strange? That woman seems to be very motivated to train because she has the means to be able to defeat her older sister who has Maou-level power!
If Serafall knew what Sona was excited about now. She would have wondered what grudge Sona had against her older sister? She must have known one of Sona\'s desires that at least always wanted to be as strong as her, but there was no need to defeat herself for that, right? Knowing her little sister was like this because of Eiji. She should probably visit the boy\'s house soon.
~~~
In the afternoon.
When school hours are over and dismissal or extracurricular hours begin.
Eiji walked side by side with black-haired girl in the corridor leading to the library. In both of their hands. There was a fairly high stack of textbooks and they all had to be returned to the library before they could go home.
This was actually the duty that the girl walking beside him had as the class president of his class. However, how could Eiji have the heart to let one of his woman deliver this pile of books alone to the library? Although he could have teleported all these books in an instant to the library.
Instead of doing that, why didn\'t he help his own woman in a more romantic way? For example this time he took half of the books that his woman had to deliver to the library.
Seeing the blush on the ears of the black-haired girl who was walking beside the corridor window with the afternoon sky in the background. Eiji couldn\'t help but praise the sight he saw.
"Very pretty."
"S-Stupid, who are you calling pretty?"
"Ah, I mean that sky. They are orange in color and look pretty. What? Yui, don\'t tell me you think I\'m complimenting you? I just found out Yui is quite narcissistic."
He grinned as he said that. That\'s right, the girl he helped to carry the pile of textbooks was Yui.
The black-haired girl was as usual tsundere. You might not know, but initially this girl was very reluctant to accept his help to carry the pile of books. Only after he was a bit pushy and directly took half of the pile of books - the girl finally accepted his help.
"You... I\'m not. I\'m not narcissistic! Eiji-kun, you\'re the one who\'s narcissistic! Hmph!"
Yui pouted, her pretty face looked unhappy and she even turned to the other side while walking with a pile of textbooks in her hands.
"Hahaha" The boy beside her laughed, making her lips twitch. She wondered if this boy would not persuade her not to be angry? Even though she wasn\'t really angry. She would probably be really angry if that boy who had taken her first time wasn\'t trying to persuade her!
"I\'m kidding... Of course the one I\'m complimenting is Yui. She looks very pretty against the backdrop of the afternoon sky from the window beside her."
"Tsk... If I had a camera with me. I would definitely take a picture of you. My girlfriend is so pretty!"
"Bah bah, who\'s your girlfriend!"
Although still looking to the other side. If other people saw Yui\'s face right now. There was a smile on her lips that could not hide that she looked happy.
Unfortunately Yui did not realize it. But on the other side she turned her head, there was also the glass of every room she passed which of course slightly reflected her current face.
Eiji could certainly see the girl\'s smile and he was dumbfounded.
[Damn, Yui is too cute. I feel like taking her home to my house tonight.]
"Bad guy!"
[Bad guy? Well if being a bad guy allows me to get the girl I like. Why not?]
"!!!"
Yui blushed, and she quickened her pace because the teacher\'s office was right in front of her.
Eiji smiled at the sight of her back and shrugged. He loved teasing Yui, both from his mouth and his inner voice. Unfortunately he might have accidentally or forgot, his inner voice was also heard by the other heroines and some of them felt sour.
Excuse me. Can you stop using your inner voice to tease a girl?
*Boom!!!*
"Ah sorry! Grayfia, I almost hurt you!"
In the underworld, Rias who was practicing for the rating game with her Peerage under Grayfia\'s supervision - apologized to that silver-haired maid because she almost blew her up using her PoD which had been strengthened with the spells Eiji had given her not long ago.
"Don\'t worry. Actually, the firepower of your power of destruction has now greatly increased, Rias."
"Your magic circle is also different from usual. Did you modify it? It looks even more advanced than Sirzechs-sama\'s."
"You just need to improve your control more in using that magic circle."
Grayfia was babbling like a coach because she was indeed serving as the coach of Rias and her peerage at the moment.
Even so, she was also actually a little surprised to see that the small mountain that was originally right behind her had now disappeared due to the PoD attack that Rias had thrown earlier.
She wondered where Rias had learned magic circle modification or her own family\'s spells? Now the magic circle that the crimson-haired girl used seemed to make it easier for her to use her PoD.
"Really? I actually learned the previous magic spell from Eiji. I should thank him more later."
Rias smiled. Actually the reason why she almost blew up her older brother\'s wife earlier was because she was a little jealous hearing Eiji flirting with the girl named Yui in his inner voice.
If she wasn\'t busy practicing and solving her problem with Riser. She would definitely prefer to ask Eiji out on a date and maybe take the boy to enjoy her otaku hobby.
Since Eiji often mentioned about plots that were basically from anime franchises or novels. That boy must be at least an otaku too, right?
Grayfia didn\'t know what Rias was thinking who was smiling to herself. She just widened her eyes slightly and finally understood why Rias could improve so far and seemed very confident that she could beat Riser in the Rating Game.
It turned out to be Eiji. That boy gave something to Rias!
~~~
"Eiji~! Did you finish helping Yui deliver the books?" The pink-haired girl asked her fiancé who had returned to class.
"Yes, I\'m done and Yui has gone home first. But Lala, and even Asia. Why are you two still in class and not going home?"
"Ah i-that... Eiji-san, actually Lala-san wants to..." The blonde-haired girl seemed a little nervous to say something.
"Eiji~! I want to shop for ingredients for dinner with Asia~!"
His pink-haired fiancé hugged his arm vigorously. Eiji raised his eyebrows slightly.
[Shopping for dinner ingredients? Sure, but I\'m worried about letting these two girls go to the supermarket alone. Wait, can\'t I come along? What else do I need to do after this anyway?]
Eiji was about to say something like going with them to the supermarket, but a certain protagonist blabbed that he had a good plan in his head.
{Mai Sakurajima! I found my main heroine and future woman! Hehe now all I have to do is look at her and ask as if I see her clearly}.
{Mai who is now suffering from Adolescence Syndrome must be surprised that I can see her and slowly I just need to get her interested to ask for my help.}
{And of course I will help her! I will definitely make her fall in love with me after I manage to get rid of her Adolescence Syndrome.}
"....." The heroines fell silent. Especially Mai who was actually planning to go to a certain library to check something out again after school.
Eiji\'s lips twitched. He sighed and looked at Lala and Asia who were looking at him as if they knew he couldn\'t go with them.
"You two can go, but I might not be able to come. Sorry, what if something happens? Why don\'t you leave the grocery shopping for the night to me as usual?"
Lala pouted, she looked unhappy.
Eiji groaned seeing his pink-haired fiancée\'s expression like this. Maybe he really should at least let Lala and Asia go shopping for dinner ingredients? There was actually nothing wrong with letting the two girls go shopping to the supermarket. It was just that he was overprotective and felt a bit paranoid as if the earth they lived on was very dangerous and a monster or bad guys might jump out of the darkness and kidnap the pretty girls.
It reminded him of Kiana\'s abduction in the past and he still seemed to have a bit of PTSD because of it.
Although Lala had Peke with her who could bring out her advanced items, but....
"I can go with them Nyaa!"
Fortunately a familiar black cat suddenly entered through the window of the school which was actually on the 3rd floor at this moment.
"Kuro-chan!"
"Meow-Meow Black-Kun!"
"Didn\'t I say this morning that my name is Kuroka Nyaa! Stop calling me by those weird names!"
Kuroka in her cat form looked a little annoyed at the blonde and pink-haired girl who still called her by her cat name.
Obviously this morning she had shown her true form to everyone in the house and they had even gotten to know each other. The pink-haired girl didn\'t even mind knowing she had become one of her fiancé\'s women. Which surprised her a little, but that was it and they were all getting along just fine this morning.
It was just that this girl named Lala seemed to like seeing her in her cat form and she had repeatedly asked her to turn into a cat while they were still at Eiji\'s house this morning - she complied with his request as she was actually more comfortable in cat form when she was lazing around or taking a walk outside.
Don\'t know when, but Eiji already gave a thumbs up to Kuroka for arriving on time. If there was a cat as strong as Kuroka protecting these girls, he at least didn\'t have to worry too much and if something really happened - he could actually teleport directly to their location.
"Kuroka, I leave the two of them to you. If there are any bad guys, especially men who come looking for trouble with Lala and Asia on the way."
"Feel free to make them stop being men."
"...." Lala.
"...." Asia.
"Nyaa? Okay." Kuroka agreed to Eiji\'s request lightly. It wasn\'t that she was a cruel woman, but she was not a saintly woman who never did cruel things to begin with - especially since she is a supernatural fugitive and even a member of an organization that can be said to be a terrorist group in the supernatural world.
Although those cruel things she will only do when she has a mission from her organization or someone is looking for trouble with her. She also definitely wouldn\'t hesitate to do something cruel to people who dared to hurt the people she loved, especially her younger sister and even Eiji.
Lala did not think much. From the beginning she had not planned to take Eiji shopping with her because she wanted to surprise him with the things her younger sister had said yesterday. It would be good if Eiji came home late again tonight because he could have time to prepare a surprise!
As for Asia? She was probably the only one who was normal enough here, and thought aren\'t these people too cruel? To make the men who seek trouble with them stop being men... Despite not knowing what it was specifically because she was still too innocent. But she felt that it must be something cruel, yet she didn\'t say anything because she was already a part of this group.
She remembered the news she watched on TV a few days ago about the church where she lived before. Eiji did that for her and even his cruel actions were also to protect her. Thinking about this. Instead of hating Eiji\'s cruel actions, she felt moved. And maybe it was time to start getting used to not being so gentle? This world was in fact not all good and there were also bad people who deserved to be punished if they did bad things.
~~~
Apart from Kuroka and Lala. Eiji didn\'t realize Asia was in the process of character development.
If he found out, he would just smile. Actually, his cruel actions so far also often made him worry that girls would hate him, but he also couldn\'t help it because he was a protective and possessive person who was probably no worse than the protagonists.
Even so, he would at least try to keep all his women happy and safe as long as they stayed by his side. He won\'t force the girls hard to do things they don\'t want to do, but maybe in some circumstances he will be manipulative enough to direct the girls\' actions using his inner voice.
At the end of the day he is also a selfish man and he does that to keep the girls he is interested in out of the hands of other men - especially the protagonists.
?{Host, what will you do to the protagonists this time? Unlike Rito and Issei. Protagonist Sakuta has no superpowers and his only golden finger is his memories from his previous life}.
Miss System who had been silent for a long time finally meowed and asked curiously. Eiji who was on his way to Mai\'s location smiled.
"What am I going to do? Isn\'t it obvious? I\'ll give him green hat right in front of his eyes like the other protagonists."
?{I knew it. My host is a sadist. But how exactly are you going to do it?}
"Miss System, you\'re too curious. You\'ll see later...a little hint, I\'ll use the reward I just got this morning."
{You\'re going to use that?!}
Miss System sounded surprised. No, she actually sounded excited. Well just like her host, it seemed like Miss System was also starting to develop sadistic attributes.
She wanted to see how the protagonist this time would get the green hat in front of his eyes!
There are many shopping areas in Kuoh city. It was not far from the school. Using magic to see through walls, Eiji who teleported not far outside a library could see Mai enter the library in a hurry and let out a sigh of relief as if she felt safe in there.
Then she excitedly started walking around the library as if she wanted people to notice her. Seeing as some people could see her and some couldn\'t. The girl let out another sigh of relief and looked happy - she even took out her cell phone from her pocket as if she was going to text someone.
*Ding*
"...."
The cell phone in Eiji\'s pocket vibrated, and of course he checked it only to see the girl he was looking at sending him a message.
Mai:
Eiji\'s lips twitched. This girl.... You basically asked for my help and thanked me, but you actually wanted me to come to you right away, right?
[Tsundere B is a bit troublesome.]
From a distance, he could see Mai almost stumbling while staring at her cell phone.
Eiji chuckled at what happened to the girl and he deliberately did not reply to her message, at least not now. From the other side, he could also finally see the protagonist Sakuta who came out from behind the .... bushes across the library road. Well, in school uniform, the boy also started walking into the library.
His purpose was clear. That boy must be following Mai from school and was planning to meet her in the library.
It was almost the same as the plot of their first meeting in the original work. Except in this scene Mai wasn\'t wearing her bunny costume and her Adolescence Syndrome wasn\'t as severe as in the original work.
"It\'s time to move."
