Sitting alone in the room, Aya Koda thought back to everything the guys said. Despite the fact that she's just 10, she's smart enough to realise that this is no joke.
Like, a weird transparent screen suddenly pull-up before her eyes, and someone immediately describes her looks based on her name alone. That is enough proof for the young hero.
And, although she's not fully understand her situation and the fact that she gets featured in some fictional work, the "possible" future of her seems dim…
"Can't believe I get to save this world…"
She silently made up a smile, a very satisfied one.
Despite the fact that the future situation is a real mess, the fact that she outsmart the strongest man at that time TWICE and single handedly turn the table for the agency is legitimately her wet dream.
Seems like her dream wasn't in vain after all…
Looking at everyone wandering around having fun, Kasumi Miwa can't help but let out a long breath.
To be honest, she didn't want to trust his story one bit, but the guys have proven his stories through various questions of hers, to the point that she doubted that he's actually from this world.
She did know her own limitations in curse technique and fighting style, but to the point of wasting her own being for a strike that never connected… That's just dumb.
Fortunately, she got the chat group before any of her misfortune happened, and she still has some time before the whole Shibuya thing.
She could try to locate Kenjaku's place and take him down, but she also knows that doing that may mess up everything real bad, and he may accelerate his plan further than the original timeline.
So the best course of action for her right now is to improve more than she already is, and fortunately she's got the idea for what to learn next…
[Saruyama Kenichi: "Sup guys, what did I miss?]
Saruyama then suddenly went online again after some minutes of silence, and based on the message I can be certain that he felt pretty smug right now.
Based on his personality, I would say that he has a successful peeking without being detected…
Doesn't matter to me though, and I don't bear any intention to ask.
[Jouno Tsukami: Not much, I just finished explaining their plot.]
[Saruyama Kenichi: Oh…]
Hearing that, Saruyama throws away all the JJK and BSD on the table, feeling a bit down.
He wasted some money for all the recent volume to reveal them for the two members, but all of that went down the drain now.
[Jouno Tsukami: Why the attitude? Some girl catches you red handed?]
[Saruyama Kenichi: It's not th—]
Saruyama suddenly stops his thought while typing, as he seems to realise something odd with the message just now.
Why did he mention that the lady caught him red handed…? That's not a normal thing to say to anyone, unless…
[Saruyama Kenichi: … Let me guess, I'm the same case as Aya?]
[Jouno Tsukami: Oh my, it seems like your head isn't just full of horny stuff, aren't ya?]
I giggle a bit with his quick reflex on my hint. Seems like this guy isn't that dumb to begin with.
In the original work, every scene involving Saruyama is either with his perverted attitude, or his karma in action, or hanging around with Rito yapping about perverted things.
I don't particularly hate him for that, and quite contrary, I was pretty impressed by him.
He's the one who lives faithful to his own ideology, along with that damn president, and he always seems to back down from expressing his own personality despite just being a manga relief character.
Not that I encourage his downbad lifestyle, but it's still fun to see him in action.
[Saruyama Kenichi: So it's true…]
[Jouno Tsukami: Yep…]
[Saruyama Kenichi: … What kind of story am I in?]
[Jouno Tsukami: Let me remember…]
Hm… based on his reaction just now and his desperate message, I can assume that Lala hasn't come to Earth yet.
If she's already there, Saruyama would be able to connect everythings together and get the answer by now, as he seems pretty decent when not involving girls.
Also, since the manga doesn't state the exact time, not even me can tell him the exact time Lala came to Earth until it was too late.
I then briefly inform him of the story beginning, since the plot in itself is not that tense for him to worry about… probably.
[Saruyama Kenichi: Okay, that sounds crazy… But we have JJK and BSD characters on speed dial right now, so there's no point in denying that now.]
[Jouno Tsukami: Word of advice, since the story is pretty wacky as it goes on, keep your head up for everything the moment Lala arrives.]
I express my own concern with Saruyama, since he gets beaten a lot in the story, and although most of them are from his actions, a light warning wouldn't hurt anyone.
[Saruyama Kenichi: I will, thanks for the advice.]
[Jouno Tsukami: Don't mention that.]
And with that, I decided to conclude the conversation with everyone for now.
… It feels kinda weird, talking with that many featured fictional characters.
I know that all of them aren't fictional, since our work could just accidentally feature their life in one possible timeline, accounting the infinite situation and possibilities of the multiverse.
Even BSD and JJK existed in the To Love Ru universe, and those stories could have entirely different narratives or stories in other universes also.
And even then, those i talked with about could be entirely different from the original works, and their plot may not progress in the same way that I know
That makes me wonder… Could my life be featured as some slice of life work in another universe?
… Nah, let that slide for now.
I then go into the kitchen and turn on the oven, while preparing the ingredients.
Cooking is one of many hobbies. Since I was still a kid, I always aspired to make the perfect dish.
Although the day I can make such a dish is still far-fetched, at least I can satisfy everyone with my current cooking skill…
I quickly finished my dinner for today, meatloaf and cheese pasta.
Ahh… The smell feels real good, just like always.
I then bring them out to the living room, lie down on the couch and turn on the TV.
"Hm… what to watch…"
Thinking about that a little bit more, I decided to watch the To Love Ru series again and started to have a taste of my food…
"Hm… tastes a bit odd. Should've used less sauce."
I casually compliment my own food while slowly digesting them, eyes still following on the screen.
When the episode ended, I also finished my own meal. Frankly, my food did taste good as usual, although I feel like I have put more sauce in the meatloaf than necessary.
Well then, what to do tomorrow…?
I don't have class for the next day, so going to get stuff would be great.
~ Ding!
A chime sound echoes throughout the room, and I immediately pick up the phone. The number indicated that it was my friend.
"Yo."
"Yo! How ya goin'?"
A loud voice suddenly came from the other side immediately after my greeting, making me flinch a bit for a few seconds.
" … Quiet down man, I almost became disabled by your voice alone!"
"My bad, my bad. So, how was home?"
The one speaking just through the phone just now with a cheerful voice is Kisame, a friend of mine since childhood.
To describe him… let's just say he's the living definition of "don't judge the book by its cover".
"Just the usual, how about yours?"
"Terrible! The test is ridiculous! I just barely got over the minimum required point, and that was just the sample test!"
I chuckle a bit with his desperate voice over the phone.
Kisame isn't the most light bulb kind of student, but he's not really that bad at learning either. Personally, I would rate his learning at around 5 out of 10.
The test isn't that horrible for me personally, as I can get around 6-7 points with the actual test based on what was presented on the sample one.
"So, wanna hang out? My treat."
"Hm…"
I was kinda tempted by his question, but ultimately decided to decline that.
"Sorry man, I'm about to sleep right now. Maybe tomorrow."
"Boeing ~ Oh well, good night then."
"You too."
With that, he ended the call with a slightly boring tone. I then clean up the dishes and ready the bed for the night.
And with that, my first day with the group chat ended…
