Chapter 23 (1/2)
Wu Yan is very p.i.s.sed off about getting interrupted when he is conquering a shoujo. But what can he do? Hit the m.o.f.o? He would but this poor f.u.c.k has fate s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g with him since his birth already, and he’s technically a good guy so even if he has the reason to beat him up, it wouldn’t be cool to beat him up.
But he doesn’t feel right if he didn’t beat him up either…
Finally, he decided to greet him first and delay the decision until further notice, he is still the main character of the original work…
Looking at Hayate who’s still feeling the fast and furious scratch of kitty, and Hinagiku who felt sorry for him, he put on a smile before greeting him.
“h.e.l.lo, my name’s Wu Yan, Chinese. Although I’m a student of Hakuo Academy I am currently a butler, please teach me well!”
Only after he heard Wu Yan did he responded back.
“Nice to meet you, I am Ayasaki hayate.”
Calming down the rioting kitty inside his arms, he forced a smile with that face full of scratches.
“Ayasaki Hayate, butler of Sanzenin family, greetings, so you’re a butler as well huh?”
The latter part was referring to Wu Yan because this might very well be the first time he saw another butler of the same age range as him so he’s surprised and curious at the same time.
“That’s right, I’m currently the butler of milady Hinagiku.”
He snickered and glanced at Hinagiku when he said so.
Hayate is even more astonish now, he’s the butler of that beautiful girl?
Who would blame him for being astonished, just awhile ago he saw quite clearly from the tree that these 2 were hugging each other. He thought for sure they were a couple…
Unhappy, she glared at him with a blus.h.i.+ng face after grasping the vague idea from Hayate’s eyes. Perhaps it’s because she’s unhappy about being forcibly hugged or perhaps she’s unhappy about her introduction by Wu Yan.
“Well then, Ayasaki kun, what are you doing here? From the looks o fit, you don’t look like a student of this school…”
After slightly calming down from being fl.u.s.tered, she began to have the curiosity as expected of girls towards this Hayate who had a ‘flashy entrance’.
Alarmed he quickly ‘let go’ the cat in his hands before apologetically facing the both of them.
“Actually, the reason I’m here is because milady forgot her lunchbox so I decided to bring it for her…”
Listening to him he remembered that there’s such a scenario inside the original work.
In it, because Nagi forgot her bento, he came to Hakuo Academy to give it to her. But due to various rather complicated happenings, like Wu Yan, when he first came to Hakuo Academy he was met with the bat s.h.i.t crazy sister’s uninvinted a.s.sault.
Too bad however, he didn’t have such a high competence as him, his level and Yukiji’s is just one level . Hence, he didn’t got into school that easily.
In the end, under the a.s.sistance of the three amiga, he managed to sneak into the school.
Also, the cat he just saved was originally supposed to be saved by Hinagiku, but because she’s afraid of height and couldn’t come down she was ‘a.s.sisted’ by him (Tl: human meat cus.h.i.+on approach if I recall correctly). Then, he was dragged into the student council as a series of odd events happened around him.
And now, due to Wu Yan’s influence, the original event that would have built a good start to their relations.h.i.+p was gone. He was feeling quite lucky and his gaze lightened a lot regarding Hayate.
Even if he has the peach blossom flower luck (Tl:luck with the ladies), he refuse to believe that under the condition of standing on a pavilion close to water (Tl: advantage from proximity to target) and striking first he would lose to this unlucky fellow.
What’s more, the moment he had with Hinagiku just now was enough to further their relations.h.i.+p beyond a fundamental stage. That and their foundation forged through being together all the time, does that mean conquest is still far away?
Therefore, Hayate, you open tour crystal palace, I will open mine as well, our well water shouldn’t touch river water (Tl: mind each other’s business). You have a big a.s.s crystal palace, I don’t even have one in it, the one I am conquering is off limits, so you should go away while feeling relieved…
That’s enough about his internal monologue, Hinagiku on the other hand is getting darker and darker listening to Hayate’s ‘unfortunate academy adventure’.
“Ayasaki kun, the guard at the gate who wouldn’t let you in and attacked you without rhyme or reason, could she perhaps have been a girl with short green shoulder-length hair?”
He can see very clearly she’s holding in the anger, he can only sigh inwardly, with such a psychotic sister, one would age very fast…
Once he nodded, she was instantly enveloped in a dark air making Wu Yan’s heart jump.
Holy s.h.i.t… Kaichou-sama also know the alter technique? (Tl: 黑化技巧, probably a reference to saber alter, not sure about this, blackenization technique?)
Dumbstruck and seeing her on the verge of exploding, he quickly pulled her hands.
“Hinagiku, that’s enough, now that Hayate is already inside, let’s put down the aforementioned matter first and help him locate miss Sanzenin.”
The dark air behind her disappeared, this is due to her blus.h.i.+ng at the sight of him pulling her hands. She turned her head to the side unnaturally.
“Yo- you’ve got a point, we- well let’s go then, to the student council and then giving Nagi a notification.”
She took off after finis.h.i.+ng her sentence without hesitation.
Looking at her run, he was at a loss of words while Hayate is still confused about the whole situation.
…..
“That was really stupid, little Hayate, saving a cat and getting caught, seriously…”
In the student council room which unlike normal, is completely filled with people at the moment.
Nagi is currently pointing her fingers at the hard pressed Hayate chanting the words she said just now more than 10 times already.
Standing beside her is Isumi who’s seems like she wants to say something to Nagi but can’t find the chance to interject. Standing there she kept repeating ‘that… that’ (Tl: あのあの,那个…那个, which means something like urm…)
