What is a luxurious lifestyle?
Having a large amount of money to waste of things here and there.
Having a successful life and having a wife cook for you.
'To be true. I had the impression that this particular moment of enjoying breakfast with a stunning girl was a true luxury for me.' Akuto takes a sip of the soup.
With a surprise look on his face, Akuto looked at Sayu, who looked a bit awkward but really had some cooking skills, given the soup tasted quite good.
The scrambled egg and vegetable dish were both excellent. The entire breakfast was substantial, which was something the previous Akuto was unable to prepare.
Instead, he would have taken red bean bread and yogurt for breakfast. Which is more time-preserving and easy to get from the convenience store.
He never would have imagined that he would be able to get such warm food so early in the morning made by Sayu.
That is why, the moment he smelled something good this morning, he had a little hard time to realize.
"This is delicious! Thank you." After eating it all, Akuto properly thanked the girl for her effort.
However, Sayu found it surprising that Akuto gave her a small smile when he thanked her, considering that, counting from last night's encounter, she had never seen him smile like that before.
'Maybe he also smile normally too.' Sayu thought. Although she did not think it out loud in front of him, who was already collecting all the dishes.
"Wait! I will wash, so you should go and get ready for the school." Sayu saw Akuto starting to wash the dishes, so she quickly rushed over and shoved him away while maintaining a resolute expression.
"You know! I am really thankful for making such a nice dish. So, let me at least help you out like this." Akuto had a guess why Sayu was being like that, but he still wanted to help her out from time to time.
"No! This is something I will have to do." Sayu expression looked rather fixed.
Akuto had no idea how he should dispel her thinking about this situation, so rather than forcing things out here like this, it would be better to let her do as her wish.
But later he wanted to make it certain to her! That her worth is not something she should look down on, like this.
However, when considering it from her point of view, perhaps this is how she wants to express her gratitude for helping her with her issues, so all in all, it was not all that horrible.
"Then I will be going. Also, after the school is over, I will head out to shopping, so you should also come with me at that time." Akuto grinned as he asked.
"Eh! Wouldn't that put you in trouble?" Sayu asked in hesitant tone. After all, having a high schooler of her age co-live with a boy of around the same age group can get both of them in trouble, and it will only lead to her mother again.
It was the reason; in her heart, she started to become a little hesitant about it.
"If you are living with me. One day we will get found out, even if we don't like it. So, it is better to introduce you as my guardian relative and my cousin; that way, you will become more free." Akuto explanation was quite clear.
Given in this society, Akuto and Chihiro-nee were relatively known existences, so having them clear how Sayu is their relative, she will have a false ID for herself, although it is illusive in nature.
"Hmm!" Sayu nodded. Akuto also smiled and stood up.
"Don't worry! It will be fine." Akuto continued as he left the apartment, having Sayu staring at his back with a slight weird expression on her face as she watched Akuto leave.

As Akuto walked on the way to the school. His eyes kept looking out of the train with his mind wandering about Sayu, given she was also a high schooler like him, and he knew how boring it could get to have such a long empty time.
However, considering his financial situation, he was limited in what he could do to her after investing in stock marketing. And as he looks back, he realizes how insecure he is about his financial situation—just after he had got one person to support with his earnings.
'Hmm, there is that system gift.' Suddenly Akuto thought. After all, he remembers the so-called gift from the system, which he had totally forgotten about due to the Sayu case.
'Random gift box. I guess this might have something good. As for mastery card, I will check it later.' As an avid reader of fanfiction.
Akuto thought that after using a mastery card, one could experience headaches in order to become proficient in other martial arts or other disciplines.
So, in a vehicle like this, he suppressed his emotions and tried to check them after getting back to his school, or maybe after getting back at home.

With the top five period, Akuto mind kept on looking at the reward and kept on thinking about the things he might be able to do. He was silent, which is why Hirata and Mizuto did not bother their friend either. Until the lunch period started.
"Akuto! It's time for lunch." Mizuto was the one who stopped his friend stupor.
"Oh, it's already this late." Akuto thought and muttered in a low tone. When he got up from his chair to go have lunch with his friend, he noticed a familiar figure silently standing atop the next building, her face bearing a hint of dejection.
He had known teacher Hina, but it was not until he met her sister that he could finally remember the specifics of the story about the female lead, Miss Hina.
'This...' Considering how long Miss Hina had been a teacher at this school, he was positive that she had reached a point where she was finding it more difficult to handle her relationship with that man.
'Yes! It was miss Hina's first love, her teacher.'
'She had been asking that man to divorce his wife and properly get in a relationship with her. But that man seemed to be in dilemma with that decision.'
'Shu Hagiwara.'
'I guess. I might as well help her a bit. As a future brother-in-law.'
[New Target Found: Hina Tachibana.]
'Was it on purpose? The timing is way too perfect, Oi system.'
Akuto felt weird. But to be truthful, given his mental age too. Hina Tachibana is more of a better option for him, but looking at the current status of being student and teacher, plus the thing that happened in her anime,. Akuto really felt that; he did not want Hina to go through all of that in this life.
