Chapter 17 (1/2)
TL: Note that I have my a.s.signments up this week and mid terms so translation speed may reduce. 1 per day or at worst 3 per week. Just a newbie translator, so my speed is around 2.75 hours per chapter for 3500-3800 characters chapter with edits. Have a nice day (monotone* wow monday, super excited)
On his way here, it doesn’t matter whether they were playing soccer, chatting, reading or skirt chasing. The moment they laid their eyes on Wu Yan, their gaze fell on him. In their eyes, a flame of intense hatred burned, they grinded their teeths so hard it went ‘bajibaji’. they look they can transform into a nasty hound any moment and pounce over to bite him.
Feeling the stares which could bore thousand of holes in his body. As a lv28 little super, he’s honestly afraid….
Hinagiku satisfyingly stretched her body and then fabulously swung her pink hair around. The moment she released that amount of charm, he could feel that the gazes intensified.
He could only sigh and agonizingly facepalm.
“What’s the matter? You keeping letting out sigh after sigh, you’re going to turn into an old man at this rate ya know…”
Glancing at him she teased him so.
“Urgh….”
Half closing his eyes, he sighed with a body drained of energy.
“Even though I knew you were very popular, but who would have known once one really gets to know you, it’s rather disconcerting just how popular you are.”
Giving him an odd look, she still don’t understand what he’s on about. He then turned his lips over to the side signaling her to look over there, only now did she understand what he meant.
She felt a little bit sorry while scratching the side of her face. Quickly she changed the conversation.
“Sa, let’s go home,I’m looking forward to tonight’s dinner.”
Getting to the latter part her eyes keep getting brighter and brighter, clearly while the girl was saying this to s.h.i.+ft the conversation, her heart is actually really looking forward to it…
He can only shake his head at her.
“Nn… You head home first, I will head home a bit later.””
Stopping in her tracks she turned and asked him.
“Why? Did you forget something in cla.s.s? I will wait for you.” (TL: It’s happening boys, get on the s.h.i.+p)
“Nope, I have a bit of a matter to attend to, so I was planning to go back a bit late.”
He regretted not being able to spend the time flirting with Kaichou Sama but he really can’t help it, duty calls.
“Some matter to attend to?”
Looking closely at his face, she tried to gauge what his intentions are. Only until he started getting a bit uncomfortable from her stare did she finally say it.
“If I recall, somebody once said he didn’t have a place to go, that’s why he wants to be a butler, tell me, where can you go now?”
Looking at her lovelyy face he stepped back two steps while laughing awkwardly.
“Maa, it’- it’s just a small matter, I will be done in a jiffy, I think it’s best if you head home first.”
Puffing up her cheeks, she narrowed her greenish yellow eyes. Staring at his face awhile, she turned her head with a cold hmph.
“If you don’t want to say it, fine. Just remember if there’s anything you need help with, just confide in me. I don’t know if I will be useful or not but it can’t hurt to have more people on the job.”
“I know I know, if there’s anything milady can help with, I will definitely come to you!”
He jested.
“I will be going ahead now, remember to come back early!”
He instantly gave her a funny look, that’s when she realized what she said just now sounds like what a wife would say to one’s husband….
Her cheeks grew red, noticing the funny look still on his face, she cried out against his funny face.
“Hurry and go do your thing!”
“I will be taking my leave now, bye bye!”
Feeling his continuing presence would bring harm to him, he instantly turned around and scuttled.
When he was no longer in sight, she withdrew her angry glare while muttering something.
“Sooner or later I will dig all your secrets out!”
…..
At this moment, he is at the old dormitory, a cold flash s.h.i.+ned and Kusanagi sword appeared on his hands which he then promptly affixed behind his waist.
Unlike his free days in the past, now that he’s studying in Hakuo, how can a student bring a sword around with him. Given this school has a lot of freaks, screw swords, some might have brought a gun , he however has no interest in taking part as a member of the cast of freaks.
So, he used 10,000 Ip to buy a must have legendary tool in every novel ever — s.p.a.ce ring!
At first he thought those rings are ubiquitous in novels so they shouldn’t be that expensive. He was wrong. So wrong.
Ignoring all others, just this ring costed him 10k. Even so, compared to the other rings which have nigh infinite s.p.a.ce, this one has only 100m<sup>3</sup> approximately.
What he can do besides sucking up and buying it? If he didn’t buy one now he would still need to sooner or later. Since he’s basically homeless, he can’t stash his stuff anywhere, a storage item is absolutely needed.
Pus.h.i.+ng the door open, he went in. Looking at the ragged and dilapidated place, he opened the system’s probing function.
If it’s within his field of vision, nothing can escape the his probing. Given that it has ‘Youkai’ in it, he should raise his guard just in case the enemy knows how to turn invisible.
The sky outside is slowly turning dark, and he essentially walked all over the old dormitory but there was no youkai in sight. He can’t help but feel mystified, this surely can’t be, the system said so, so it can’t be wrong. This youkai leader should definitely be here, why haven’t he seen it yet?
It can’t be that one has to wait until nightfall for the d.a.m.ned thing to come out?
Scratching his head, he looked at the sky and decisively abandoned the thought of waiting until nightfall.
Kaichou sama already said it, she is looking forward a lot to to tonight’s dinner. If he isn’t home by dinner time to make the meal, he isn’t sure whether the favorability with her would drop, but most definitely he would get the cold shoulders for one or two days. Just for the sake of a d.a.m.ned ghost, he won’t sacrifice his thing with Kaichou sama, definitely won’t.
