After carrying a bowl of rice and miso sauce, I headed to where I wanted to sit. I was hoping to find a free seat but to be honest, I really didn't expect there to actually be a free one-
The cafeteria was where one came to buy food- people that brought Bento boxes for lunch also ate here as well and they were taking most of the population. After all, not everyone bought food from the women here.
"Drake-kun, there's a free seat here," Muruyama called out and I turned in her direction, Muruyama waved with a smile.
I approached the table eagerly, Japanese cuisine was different from the regular English food and I was grateful that there was no Taco Tuesday.
"Muruyama-chan, Katase-chan, is it okay if I sit here?" I asked.
Each table was only able to hold up to three people and even though there was a massive amount of tables and chairs here, not many people got the chance to sit down.
"It's alright," Katase replied flashing a smile, "I mean it's Muruyama that invited you here,"
Heh, at least I got my honorifics right. The original dude was able to speak and understand Japanese quite fluently enough to know that some people got offended if you didn't address them with their respective honorifcs. Well I'm still grateful that everyone in Kuoh academy can speak English fluently.
"Thank you," I said and set my bowl down on the table.
"Oh, Is that the new Miso sauce?" Muruyama asked as I sat down.
"It just happens to be it," I said, "Although the sauce is quite expensive, About 120 yen for such a small bowl,"
Just because I had a lot of money didn't mean I would use it senselessly, I still paid attention to the pricing of things at some point.
"It really is expensive and I was dying for a taste," Muruyama said.
It's not that the stuff here are actually expensive but this Miso Sauce was really new, a new and improved kind of flavor and that was why it was expensive- Give it a month or two and the price would drop down to 30 yen. I didn't buy food at the Cafateria everyday though; I initially did it once or twice in a week and fasted till I got home for the rest of the days
My initial thoughts when I failed to activate a System was that I was going to be killed and so I began the 'Saitama-recommended' training, It's been two months since I started and I'm satisfied with the results. I didn't expect to get turned into some one punch man but nevertheless the Saitama-recommended training is really good.
I had lean muscles and a slightly athletic figure, far from what I wanted but nevertheless I was nearing my goal little by little.
"Oh then if you don't mind, we could share," I suggested, anything that would help me get laid quicker was allowed, "I was excited to test out the flavor too, I heard it's a bit more pepperish than the original,"
Muruyama quickly rejected the offer.
"N- No, I don't want to be any trouble to you, Drake-kun," Muruyama said.
"Who said you were trouble? I'm the one suggesting that we should share so it's not troubling to me at all," I said, "Besides who wouldn't want to share food with a goddess like you, Muruyama-chan,"
Yes, sugarcoating your tongue was one of the only ways to get to the heart of a woman.
"Al- Alright, since Drake-kun was the one that suggested, I will honor it," Muruyama said, "Thank you very much,"
"No problem," I said while passing her the sauce, "Feel free to take as much as you want,"
#####
Over lunch, I talked a lot with Muruyama and Katase and I was delighted that I was finally able to kindle some sort of friendship between us.
It was still a little too soon for hanging out but I could live with that. We were back in class and ugh… the Teacher was giving us a History assignment.
"50-page Essay?!" Issei cried out, alarming the teacher.
"Sir, don't you think that's a little too much?" Matsuda asked, 'If we did that, there would be no time to watch Hentai!'
"Yes sir, an entire fifty page essay is a little bit much and it's on Japanese history," Motohama said.
There was some truth in their words and we had to submit it tomorrow morning as we got to class… Haah, I only wish ChatGPT was here once again. I could still remember the golden days where I did my College assigments easily by letting ChatGPT write it out for me… sublime.
Well there was nothing much I could do.
"You're right," He said with a sigh.
I was surprised; did he give into their pleas so easily?
"A 50-page essay is too small, Make it a 60-page essay about Japanese history," He said while adjusting his glasses.
Fucking hell bro, 60 PAGES?! I have a supermarket to go to dammit!
Muruyama and Katase sighed.
"How are we going to research a whole 60 pages of Japanese history," Muruyama said with a sigh.
I had to admit, this specific teacher was making my reincarnation a dreadful one. I need to get a petition running; We the students want him out of the school immediately.
"Then you could drop by," I suggested making their cheeks redden.
"Are you serious, Drake-kun?"
"Isn't that a little improper?"
I face-palmed myself, I didn't actually construct the sentence properly.
"I meant you could come over to get some books, I have quite a hefty amount of books on Japanese history and it'd be my pleasure to share them to friends," I said.
Perhaps this would bolster the growing friendship between us, besides this was too much of an opportunity to pass up. Having two beautiful young girls in your abode was amazing and it was great that they were high school girls…
Hehehe, the Popo can't do anything to me.
"You mean it?" Katase asked.
"Yeah," I replied, "But you don't know where my house is, Wanna go directly after school?"
"Uhm, I got something to do at home," Katase said.
"Me too, We could wait for you at the Café close to the school though," Muruyama said.
"That's fine with me," I said and stood up, almost instinctively the closing bell rang and the History teacher walked out of the class.
"I'll be there at 4," I said and packed up by books quickly, I of course had some laundry to do first.
But I wasn't kidding about the books, they were a lot to be honest and even I hadn't gone through all of them. My father had given them to be so I could be 'WELL-VERSED' in Japanese culture.
I hung the bag over my shoulder and left the class quickly, on my way out of Kuoh academy, I couldn't help but wonder when Canon was going to start- but it should start after I got a powerful skill though, Raynare was surely a cute Fallen and the amounts of SP she would be able to generate would be unparalleled.
My only wish is that I didn't bump into or anger any fallen angels on my way home, That my friend was the highest mistake one could make in this life.
