"Greetings Vallery." Kishimoto said as he sat down next to Kira. Kira stood up and pointed to the hallway. Kira walked out to the hallway and Kishimoto followed after him. "What is Vallery?" He asked, getting only a glare in return. Kishimoto gulped and silently followed Kira to the bathroom.
"Kishimoto, what did you do yesterday when you went to the old school house?"
"I already told you, occult resea-it worked didn't it." Kira glared at Kishimoto as he hesitantly answered.
"…Temporarily."
"Kishishi ! It worked, it really really worked!" Kishimoto said happily as his mind raced.
"Yes, it worked. But why the hell would you curse us." Kira asked anger in his eyes
"It's simple, I didn't want to involve myself in something as Vulgar as what the spell contained so I used you and Amamiya-Sensei as test subjects."
"Test subjects? Kishimoto we are humans not some puppet for you to marionette. You have to understand that Amamiya-sensei is married, and what you made happen could ruin her life. What you did, you bended fate and peoples lives for your own selfish interests. That's not ok, if you want to involve people in an experiment ask them, don't just decide for yourself that they're gonna be a part of it."
"You sound like my mom."
"This isn't the time to joke, is there any way to reverse the curse?" Kira had already gotten an answer from the system but hoped Kishimoto knew something that the system didn't.
"I don't know. I wasn't even sure that it would work." He answered honestly, causing Kira to sigh.
"Let's just return to class, and remember if you want to involve someone in your occult research, ask first."
"Yes." He said with a pout. The boys left the bathroom and from one of the stalls walked out Sugino who had heard the entire conversation.

Ayano-Senseis homeroom
"Ok, it has been brought to my attention that people in this class-I was not told names-have been picking on Sugino. I will be keeping my eyes open and if I see anything you will be punished. Now I want your help as well. Bullying someone just because of their physical appearance and personality is not okay. Do you all understand?"
"Yes Ayano-Sensei" the students replied with a few giving quiet groans of annoyance, and a few others snickering at her comment about Sugino's quality's.
'What did she just say? I thought she was supposed to be on my side! She betrayed me!' Sugino thought, balling his fists in frustration. 'This is my life isn't it! Just some annoyance people use till I die.' He then remembered the words he overheard in the bathroom, 'if there was a way to change fate, I would make myself a king.' Sugino thought, knowing it was a fool's wish.

Suginos thought drifted through the void of consciousness until a pair of fingers covered in a blue flame picked it up and vanished from the void.

As the history teacher talked Kira pulled up his quest log, the quest log screen like the screen that told him about the [reincarnation clause] was green.
'I wonder why some of them are different colors.'
For reference
Quest notifications were usually blue but would vary,
Status screen was black with a gold outline
Quest log and clauses(?) were green
Skills vary in color;
Relaxing Pheromone is a red color screen
Arousing Pheromone is blue color screen
½ was a red color screen.
'I wonder if any other colors exist, and why they do?' Kira thought and brought his attention to his quest log.
——————————————————
Quest log
-Meet Yoshii Yukka(✅) {blue screen}
-Sleep with Natsumaki Misaki(✅) {pink screen}
-Kiss Natsumaki Misaki(✅) {Red screen}
-Compromise(✅) {blue screen}
-Have sex with Amamiya Reiko(…) {Pink screen}
——————————————————
(A.N: the {} brackets that say the color of the screen do not exists for the characters, they are only there to help the reader and me know what color the screens were)
'Weird I should have finished the last quest yesterday.' Kira thought, regretting what happened yesterday. He clicked on the quest.
——————————————————
Have great sex with Amamiya Reiko
Reward(s):
-150 EXP
-A spin at the skin wheel
-2 SP
(1 / 10) orgasms
——————————————————
'Oh, so to get the rewards I need to make her orgasm 9 more times. Yeah I'm not doing that.' Kira knew that what happened yesterday was an anomaly caused by the curse and he didn't want to ruin Amamiya's life any more than he already had. 'Not to mention it's possible that she thinks what happened yesterday was just a dream. I'd prefer to keep it that way.'

"Thanks for that Lust." Gluttony said as he leaned back in the chair with a red fire above it.
"Hehe, I'm just glad I could fix my mistake." Lust said sheepishly as she adjusted her glasses.
"No it's fine, any of us could have done the same thing. Offering SP as a reward."
"So why couldn't I just take away the SP from the rewards list?"
"He already saw it, if he figures out that we exist before he's ready then things might go down a bad path…and that's not gonna end well for any of us."
"Yeah…so if we can't give him SP as a reward why are we allowed to offer it?"
"Well we can, just not yet. You see SP stands for shopping points. He can use them to buy things from the shop when he unlocks it, and once he unlocks it we're allowed to offer him SP a reward."
"Who made all these complicated rules?"
"…Our savior, the one beyond all." Gluttony sighed
"The one that saved us from the convergence." Lust said, giving a nostalgia filled frown. "Do you think we'll ever be able to see our homes again?"
"…I don't know."

Sugino opened the door to his room and fell onto his bed. He was so out of it that he failed to realize he wasn't alone in the room. Sugino sighed into his pillow and pulled out his phone from his back pocket. He opened a popular app that featured cute girls that didn't hate him for being him, mostly because he wasn't. He was playing the main character In a video game, he would never be the main character. He looked at the screen that featured a cute elf.
"I wish I could make her mine." He said emotionlessly.
"Kufufu, we can arrange that." A feminine voice whispered into his ear. Sugino shot up in fear and turned around to see a weird looking woman in his room. She had swirly purple eyes and long messy red hair that had a part of it stick up and form a weird Z.
"Wh-who are you!? How did you get in here!?" He yelled questions in her face but she still smiled.
"My name is Arme Rina, I'm here to help you take pride in your life." She waved her hand in a circular motion and a smartphone suddenly appeared in it. On the screen were written the words 'Become the king of your world'
"What is that?"
"A tool to help you learn pride."
"What can it do?" He asked expectantly
"Whatever you want."
