Chereads / The Irregular Elite (Remake) / Chapter 13 - Cold Hands

Chapter 13 - Cold Hands

The class went on as normal. The only difference now is that the boys are all looking at the back.

They're all looking at Nana.

I couldn't help but glare at them from time to time.

Mr. Julius is wary of me because of the incident earlier.

It seems that I became one of the few people who could actually stop his chains. I was honored.

Right now I'm eating in the garden with Nana.

However, Hina came together with us as well.

The atmosphere sure is weird.

"Nana, please stop pushing your breasts at my arm. You too Hina."

They were so close that I couldn't eat properly.

I don't know what to do about this…

Well, I should just enjoy it, right?

[You don't like this?]

"It's not that I don't, it's because I just feel like this is wrong somehow."

["Heeh."]

They both look somewhat disappointed. I'm sorry, but if I were to choose between one wife or a harem, I'll choose the path with one wife.

Having multiple wives has a lot of problems that comes with it. Not to mention that this world doesn't allow polygami. Although, some high ranked families bypass that. That's kind of unfair huh?

"Hina-san! Wanna come with us to the canteen?"

A girl with brown hair and orange eyes called out to Hina. Flat huh… Wait, that's not important.

"Eh? I'm already eating though?"

"Hoh? Is that the guy you've been telling us about?"

"Yes, he is Ayato."

The girl looked at me from the feet up. Please stop that, I feel uncomfortable.

"Black hair and yellow eyes. Pale skin and an average build."

She was observing my appearance. I was troubled by the last sentence though. I was wearing a long-sleeved uniform after all.

Maybe she had an X-ray type skill?

I squinted my eyes as if trying to appraise the girl.

>Skill[Appraisal]acquired.

Eh?

I was surprised at the message, but I was even more surprised at what I was seeing.

She's strong. Way stronger than me.

Out of curiosity, I checked Hina.

Geh… I am losing confidence here… They're all too strong… They even had titles...

Well, Nana did say I had the potential to infinitely grow. I just need to work hard.

I sighed and stood up to introduce myself to the girl. It would be weird to know her name without even meeting her once after all.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Ayato Kusarage."

"Oh? Nice to meet you as well. I'm Shiina Vermillion."

I held my hand out with a smile and she shook it with a smile as well. Warm and soft.

Her hand was warm and soft…

"Cold…"

She muttered while she looked at my hand that she was holding. I tilted my head in confusion.

"Your hands are so cold… do you have any sickness?"

"Hm? No, I don't?"

Was it that cold?

I look toward Nana as if pleading for help.

"It's true, your hands are as cold as ice. Although, your right is colder than your left."

She nodded and said those words.

What the hell is happening to my body then?

"Ehem, that aside, how long are you gonna hold hands?"

"Ah."

"Right."

I let go of Shiina's hand. I could feel Hina's gaze piercing me. I wonder why…

Just kidding. So she gets jealous with just that huh?

Luckily Nana doesn't easily get jealous like this.

And just like that, a new member has entered the party!

That is how it will go if this was a game right?

Fuu, I feel like I accomplished more, like making friends, than in the past.

Well, I don't really mind at all though!

We were about to start eating when I realized something.

"Where's your lunch Shiina-san?"

"A-ah. I forgot mine at home."

Ah.

I had extra with me, but it was in my [Storage].

I looked at Nana and asked if it was alright to show it to these two.

She nodded.

I opened a portal beside me with [Storage] and took out the food from within.

"Here, you can have this."

"W-what was that?!"

Hina was just looking at me while Shiina was shocked at what had just happened.

I should tell them that it was just a unique skill without saying what the name is.

"That was my unique skill."

Oh, by the way, the true term is skills. I just used the term abilities before because it was what I was using since I was a kid.

"An unknown?"

"Kinda?"

Hina muttered in a low voice, but I still heard her.

And due to that I gained a new skill.

>Skill[Keen Hearing]acquired.

Wow, that's three skills in a day.

Later on I learned that the three skills that I got were already maxed out.

We head back to the classroom since break time was over.

Shiina was sitting in front just beside the door.

I curse at myself for not noticing a beauty like that for these past few days.

I looked around me and saw that everyone had their eyes on me.

"Why?"

I said in a slightly cold tone.

The reason for that was because as soon as I entered the room, a deadly headache hit me.

No, this actually started when Shiina told me that my hand was cold.

Not just that, my right arm also feels dull.

I can't feel it. I also felt that it was indeed cold when I touched it with my left hand.

Looks like I need to get the skill [Regenerate] quickly.
