55 Chapter 56 (1/2)

Sun shines in the horizon of Tokyo as people in the crossing busily walked in different directions to reach their own destinations. There are many students crossing the scramble alongside with different people to reach their schools. Two teenagers wearing uniforms of the same school is walking side by side. A young girl and a young boy. The girl is a bit taller than the regular girl but still wears here delicate expression. Her Brown short hair only around her neck length was quite stunning to look at and she is definitelygorgeous. Accompanied with her slim body with curvaceous form, many will mistake her as a magazine model. If she tried to cosplay Luka Megurine of Vocaloid, she would immediately pass and many otakus would definitely bow down to her. This girl is none other than Riko Akusabe.

Walking by her side is a boy wearing the male uniform of Gashousou Academy. He has a lean and firm built but cannot be considered too masculine. In fact, he looked normal and his aura is as calm as the waters. His posture is normal but quite imposing. Though he paled in comparison to the girl beside him, he is not something to be trifled with in regards of face. He has a handsome face and could be considered 'virgin' face due to the fact that not a single pimple mark is present in his face. It means he never got a pimple at all. How I know about that? Of course, I know because I am describing myself!

I, Manato Tsukasa is a handsome fellow and I am proud to say that this face of mine never got a single pimple at all. If you think that I am simply narcissistic, well scram! Even though the author is writing my story, I am quite proud the way he explains my beautiful face!

Ahem, back to the topic. After eating breakfast, we made it quickly to the scramble so that we can arrive at school as quickly as possible. We still had a few minutes left before we are late but it is still not considered late as it was still the first day of school. A few kilometer walk and soon enough, a few fellow schoolmates are seen walking in the same direction with us and currently talking to their own friends about then long vacation.

I also felt it long but it was actually short enough if you consider how much time I need to play Alternate World. Also, I found it tiresome. We are already third year high school students now. Its quite troublesome since I will be sure that there are new people that I will be meeting with and also old acquaintances which I clearly remember to be a few people I interacted in the past.

I already knew that most of them are still in my class though some are no longer available for they might have gone to other school or they are already moved on the other classrooms. Anyway, its not my problem.

”Manato, are you alright? You are silent for quite a while,” Riko looked at me with curiosity.

I smiled wryly at er due to my recent actions. If I was like myself in my timeline, I am too talkative than usual. But now, I no longer talk too much and looks like Riko noticed how silent I am.

”Ah, nothing. I am just thinking how hard the lessons now at school,” I said an alibi immediately.

”Hmm, is that so? Well, why though? You are an intelligent person, why panic for that?” Riko grinned.

I scratched my head. Is this how my classmates saw me? An intelligent person? More like a nerd.

It didn't take us a fewminutes when we arrived at the front gate of the Gashousou Academy. It still looked like the same. I looked at the students around. There are a few familiar faces that is clearly present in my timeline and a few who seemed to be out of place and I can't remember them being part of the school. Maybe due to my interference, more people have appeared that are no longer part of my past timeline. Anyway, I don't really mind. They seemed to be not that troublesome.

Before I can properly look in my surroundings, my sense seems to be enhanced further, as I felt someone behind me who is about to slap me at the back of my head.With quick succession, I dodge by pretending something fell and picking it up. The slap naturally missed and in the corner of my eyes, I saw that the person who was about to slap me was a bully of mine. Souji Takamine. A very masculine guy with a very intimidating face and a menacing look that many might want to smack his face to the ground if they got the chance.

Due to the strong swing he did and to the fact that he missed his target, he got outbalanced and he fell face first into the ground. In my opinion, he looked clumsy for tumbling just by that. I look in disdain at him. Is this really the bully that beat me up in my past timeline? Now that I looked at him, he looked so easy to smack down. Even my past self can beat up this guy!

”Nggh!” Souji groaned as he pull himself up from being slammed down.

Many onlookers grinned and some even are gossiping at this guy. I stood up and disregard him, Riko also noticed Souji and when she saw that this guy was obviously the bully who kept on bullying me in the past school days, she didn't bother looking at him any further and just waited for me to catch up.

In the end, he was humiliated in the public.

Entering the building, many students goes straight to the bulletin board. Riko was one of them but I stopped her from going.

”Huh? Why?” She looked at me with confusion.

”I already know out class. 3- B third floor west wing,” I grinned.

”Nah, don't just spout random building here. We still don't know that!” Riko said and quickly dived on the crowd.
