Chapter 44: The next plot begins and the protagonist prepares to get the green hat again
"Shirone..."
Somewhere.
A woman with long black hair was muttering. Her curvaceous and sexy figure looked lonely as she sat on a tree where she could see the vast Kuoh cityscape before her eyes.
Her golden brown eyes were cat-like. A black kimono, a yellow obi, a set of golden beads, and a red kimono interior were open at the shoulders, giving a view of her large breasts that rivaled those of Rias and Akeno in size.
That was the description of the appearance Eiji would think of if he saw this woman.
It's just that. Putting that aside, this woman had just announced someone's name and that person was actually Koneko!
Shirone Toujou was Koneko's real name. Which means this woman is none other than Koneko's older sister, Kuroka Toujou who is currently an SS Class Stay Devil - the most wanted criminal in the underworld.
Not long ago, Kuroka heard the inner voice of a man named Eiji Seiya whom she knew for a long time that the other party was a time traveler and he knew many things. For example, he even knew Koneko's and her past! Even knew the real reason why she killed her king/master many years ago which made her labeled as a villain and hated by her younger sister.
Currently, she was sadly recalling the past incident because someone reminded her. Eiji Seiya, that man was quite annoying. Aside from being sad, she was also annoyed that the man said she and Shirone lacked brain cells!
If it was another good person, they should at least feel sorry and maybe understand how unfairly she had been treated all this time. But, okay the man did do both. But he also mocked her and her younger sister in the last part.
"What does that mean!? How dare he mock me and Shirone-nyaa!"
Despite sounding angry, the sexy mature woman added a cat-like "nyaa" in the last part of her words that made her sound cute. If Eiji was here, he would definitely want to adopt this black cat. Cough, I mean invite this beautiful woman to his house as a guest and maybe they can get to know each other well. After that...
"Also. Do I really lack brain cells? But back then I really didn't even think about giving Shirone an explanation."
"I immediately ran away which strengthened the evidence of my crime."
Kuroka blinked her cat eyes a few times. She was silent and her expression gradually became a little strange. She was thinking hard now, trying to recall the scene where she had killed her master using Senjutsu.
Probably because of her clumsiness and panic. At that time, she had somehow thought of fleeing as far away from the scene as possible so that her younger sister would not be implicated for her actions.
Although she was only 9 or 10 years old at that time. In fact, she was quite smart and understood the situation well, but she somehow became stupid! Obviously she was also a victim, and there were many evidences at the scene that showed her employer's illegal act of experimenting with devils/other living beings which was strictly forbidden by the underworld government at that time.
As a victim, she could even testify that she killed her employer as an act of self-defense. If he remembered, the scene even had many CCTVs just like in a laboratory in the human world.
But!
In addition to escaping, she even ridiculously used her senjutsu's fire manipulation ability to burn down the laboratory containing a lot of evidence of the illegal things her employer did - including the CCTV footage. She destroyed almost all of that laboratory! Although her employer was still proven to be a criminal who conducted experiments on living beings after she died.
But if you think about it. The act of running away and destroying almost the entire scene was stupid!
What she did back then. Although it wasn't the first time she had done it. But this was the first time she thought that far ahead because of what Eiji Seiya said in his inner voice!
"Nyaa. Is it because of a plot or something? Aren't my actions said to be the same as the plot in the original work?"
Kuroka smiled wryly, she had the urge to hit the author who created the original work. And the fact that she was one of the characters whose actions were dictated by the plot. She was of course upset. However, what she regretted now was pointless because it had already happened, right?
"I can also actually try to give Shirone an explanation now. But..."
She felt hesitant and afraid that Shirone wouldn't even forgive her. In the end it might be true what Eiji Seiya said. Wait, she doesn't lack brain cells! It was just that her awkwardness towards Koneko made her unable to be honest and she actually felt inclined to pretend to be a villain if she met her younger sister now.
"Because of that. Instead of directly finding Shirone. Why don't I find Eiji Seiya and ask for her help!"
...
?{Host, why are you suddenly smiling so widely? Is there something to be happy about? You were just walking back to your class after leaving Koneko who had a mental attack on the roof of the school.}
Her system asked curiously. Eiji who was walking in the school corridor said, "Miss System, it seems like a beautiful woman is thinking of me."
?{Huh? How did you know?}
"Hey... It can't be explained scientifically. But let's call this a man's sixth sense."
What nonsense...
Miss System rolled her eyes, and she felt that what her host said was unscientific! Not even one of her host's skills or items had such abilities!
A male sixth sense? This is the first time I've heard the male version instead of the female version.
?{By the way, host. Aren't you worried about Koneko's condition right now? You didn't try to comfort her or anything and went straight back to class after finishing eating your Yakisoba Buns.}
"Miss System, in saying this you're a beginner..."
Eiji shook his head mentally which made his system fall silent. Actually the reason why he didn't follow up on Koneko after what happened before was because he didn't want to curry too much favor. Or rather he wanted after this Koneko herself to come to him for help or something.
There was a saying from his home country, precisely in his previous life.
?{.....}
The saying goes...
If you suck up to women too much as a man. 8 out of 10 women will look down on you and many of them will definitely just consider you a "good guy" who is easy to take advantage of until he has a green hat.
{Pufft}
"...."
This girl is laughing? Hey this isn't funny. She's serious, okay?
Eiji could hear the sound of the girl laughing in his head and there also seemed to be the sound of objects/people falling.
{Ahh!}
"Miss System, are you alright?"
?{I-I'm fine. Continue the plot!}
"Yes?"
Eiji lifted the original, he was increasingly convinced Miss System had her own body somewhere.
But speaking of plots. When returning to class. It just so happened that today's lesson schedule was Biology Class. All students, including him, Lala, Asia, Yui, Haruna and um...protagonist Rito.
They were all divided into groups and it just so happened that the teacher was very nice or maybe this was a teacher hired by the two real bosses behind the scenes of this school. And it just so happens that the two bosses are also his womans, Rias and Sona.
He should pay more attention to the two women and reward them later.
But put that aside. The teacher made each group of three. The three people in his group were himself, Lala and Asia. Another interesting group was the one with Yui, Haruna and Risa. Then followed by Rito's protagonist group which contained Rito, Kenichi, character B whose name he couldn't remember.
This group division looks very biased and emphasizes Anti-Poison on itself which makes Eiji satisfied of course.
[Sona, Rias. After school. I'll visit you guys later. I miss you guys.]
"....." Lala, Asia, Haruna, Yui who were not far from the white-haired boy looked at him while being silent.
In the third year class. Precisely class 3-A.
"....."
"....."
Two of the prettiest girls in the class had a blush on their cheeks.
Sona and Rias who were attending the class blushed which made the female math teacher who was teaching confused and asked.
"Gremory-san and Shitori-san. Are you guys okay? Your faces look quite red. Do you have a fever?"
"No. Sensei, I'm fine."
"Me too! Don't concern us and please continue, sensei."
Rias and Sona whose seats were not far away looked at each other.
"Okay, if you two are fine. Sensei will continue."
The female math teacher didn't ask any more questions, even though she felt there was something wrong with the two girls. But as one of the teachers who knew the true identity of the school authorities behind the scenes. She was very obedient when the two girls told her to continue teaching.
In addition, there was also a black-haired girl with a ponytail and a bespectacled girl with long straight black hair who were staring at the previous two girls with a jealous look.
With her personality, Tsubaki was only slightly jealous of Sona. But Akeno, besides being jealous of Rias. The girl was also actually a little horny at the thought of Eiji probably visiting the ORC to meet Rias which meant she would also meet him.
She couldn't help but recall what she had done with Rias, Sona and Eiji in the student council room a few days ago.
Even when Eiji had excluded her name earlier after she had also licked his penis back then. Instead of being angry or sad, she felt like a mistress which made her even more horny.
"Umh~" Akeno squirmed slightly and made a small sound that could only be heard by the sharp ears of supernatural beings.
"....." As devils. Rias, Sona and Tsubaki naturally heard Akeno's sudden moan and they instantly knew the girl must be horny.
As expected of Akeno.
Currently, Eiji's sixth sense did not detect a girl who was wet from thinking about him.
Perhaps it was because his attention was currently on the hidden gaze that was staring at him with murderous intent. And it was definitely not the gaze of the protagonist Rito who currently had more or less the same gaze.
{Eiji.... Hehehe wait a little longer. Soon I will snatch those girls from you! Especially Lala, I remember in the previous life. At this moment, something will happen soon}.
{I will seize this opportunity to do the "hero saves beauty". Because in this life I had superpowers earlier. Later I can save Lala and even Haruna who still doesn't seem to have truly forgiven me.}
{But no matter. Not only will Lala fall in love with me. But Haruna will also willingly become my woman along with Lala and the others.}
{Hahaha! Eiji, at that time you can only look at those girls with me and you will feel the same pain as I did before!}
Rito who was cutting and analyzing the frog organs on the table with his group - he grinned evilly while occasionally looking at Eiji.
The heroines in the room frowned.
Lala naturally became wary and wondered what exactly Rito was planning on doing to her fiancée and even herself and Haruna?
Asia was confused, but she felt a classmate named Yuuki Rito who turned out to be one of the protagonists. Just like Issei, that boy was no good either.
Haruna had a complicated expression knowing Rito seemed to be planning something involving her. Hearing that boy wants to use the "hero saves beauty" trick to make her completely forgive him and fall in love with him even more.
She felt Rito was a manipulative bastard.
Yui who happened to have her group table next to Eiji's group table. She unconsciously leaned her body slightly to stand closer to Eiji as if trying to protect him or something from Rito's evil gaze.
"Hi Yui. What's wrong? You're suddenly standing closer to me. Don't tell me, you..."
Making a dumbfounded face and smirking slightly, Eiji teased the black-haired girl.
Yui snorted and blushed slightly. "D-Don't get me wrong! I just feel that standing in this position is better for me to analyze the frogs in my group."
"I see."
"Do you believe that?"
"I believe."
"Really?"
"Un. As the chairman of the school morale committee. Yui is a good and honest girl. How can I not believe it?"
Eiji nodded, assenting to the tsundere girl.
The tsundere girl seemed satisfied hearing his answer. Even her smile looked happy which made the other students who were busy doing group work feel like they were being fed dog food seeing the two of them seemingly flirting with each other.
Especially Rito, his expression looked ugly and full of jealousy!
{Ahh! Eiji! You bastard! How dare you flirt with Yui! And Yui, what's with you? Why do you seem to be protecting that bastard? Even though it's useless. I'm jealous!}
{Yui, you were also the girl who loved me in the previous life. In this life, you should also love me!}
"...."
The protagonist was unreasonable as usual. Yui was too lazy to pay attention to Rito and continued to do her group work beside Eiji.
Eiji smiled, he smiled while occasionally glancing at Rito which made their gazes meet.
Rito clenched his fist at that moment.
However, as if not having enough mental attacks.
"Eiji~! Can frogs be eaten like chicken?"
Lala swung her small knife and tore open the belly of the frog on the table innocently.
The overly gentle Asia felt sorry for the frog. But since the teacher told them to study the frog's internal organs and she didn't want to make trouble either. So she persisted with the little note in her hand.
"Lala, frogs can indeed be eaten if cooked properly. But I don't recommend it. Forget eating frogs, we'll have fried mushrooms tonight."
"By the way. Asia, I'll teach you other dishes tonight."
Eiji with dominantly became the backbone of the group and was not shy about mentioning things about his household in front of his classmates, which of course earned him many envious looks from the male students.
"Yey! Eiji~! I can't wait for dinner!"
"Y-Yes, Eiji-san. I won't let you down!"
Seeing this scene, Rito accidentally broke one of the frog legs in his group.
"Rito, what are you doing!?"
"Rito, our group grade might be deducted a few points by sensei because of this!"
Kenichi and character B scolded Rito.
Rito ignored both of them, and was annoyed why he was even in a group with boys. Whereas Eiji could be in a group with pretty girls?
That was so unfair!
He felt that the teachers at his school were very biased! Was it just a coincidence?
But whatever because the event she was waiting for finally started.
"Student Yui Kotegawa of class 2-A is expected to go to the principal's office right now."
"I repeat. Student Yui Kotegawa of class 2-A is expected to go to the principal's office right now."
That voice was the principal's voice coming from the school's loudspeakers whose sound covered the first and second year student buildings.
Yui who heard her name being called by the principal was surprised.
She didn't understand why she was called the principal!
But as a good student who always followed the school rules. She couldn't ignore the principal's call and immediately asked the teacher in her class for permission to leave.
But Rito's expression looked strange at the moment as if he was stupid.
{What's going on? Shouldn't the one who was called be Haruna? Wait! Of course, it would be different in this life!}
{But it doesn't matter. This is also a good chance to make Yui fall in love with me and make her forget that bastard!}
Seeing this familiar situation, but a slight change due to the butterfly effect that must have been caused by her. Eiji was just as happy as Rito. But unlike Rito who stupidly revealed all his plans.
He was not blabbering, but planning to move faster than Rito!
And of course, he would benefit the most in this plot!
Rito, prepare to get a new green hat on your head.
