I was prepared to lose two or three arms, but they forgave me when I treated them to a lavish meal at a family restaurant. I understand why the guys who said bad things about me did so, but Saotome also tagged along, and I treated him too.
Well, it was fun hanging out with seven guys, so it was good. I didn’t know this before my reincarnation, but it’s actually quite fun to hang out with friends (temporary).
More importantly, it’s Niiro! What should I do? Is this too harsh? Don’t you like Saotome that much? He’s such a cool guy. Above all, he’s the main character.
“I’m home.”
I don’t get a “welcome home” in return, but I always say it anyway. It’s a phrase my grandmother cherished before I was reborn.
I’ve never said “Welcome back,” but my grandmother always said “I’m home.” So when I say “I’m home,” I feel like I can sense her a little bit.
One day, I want to be able to say “I’m home” and “Welcome back” to my grandmother.
“Welcome back~”
“Ha?”
Wait, did I go to the wrong house? There’s no one at my house, so no one should be saying “Welcome back.”
But when I calmed down, I immediately recognized whose voice it was.
“Hey, why are you here?”
I asked the goddess lying on the sofa in the living room.
“It doesn’t matter where I am.”
“And that’s my shirt, isn’t it?”
She’s relaxing in my T-shirt instead of her usual outfit. Wings can be freely created or disappeared. If she had wings, only the shoulder blade part of my shirt would be torn.
“It’s fine, it’s not like it’s going to run out.”
“Well, that’s true…”
“I like this shirt, so I’ll take it.”
“It’s running out!”
Is she really a goddess? I’ve never heard of such a crazy goddess. That was my favorite T-shirt too.
“So, why are you here?”
“I’m in a good mood right now, so I thought I’d show you the affection.”
“Really!”
Alright! I make a mental fist pump. Now I know where I stand.
“Hold on a sec.”
She sat up from lying down and suddenly pulled out a book in front of me. Seeing this, I really think she’s a goddess. Even if she just barges into my house and tries to take my clothes.
“Hmm, let me see… Oh, is this it?”
That book also mentioned my previous life, so it’s really versatile. I don’t need it, but I want it just so I can pull it out suddenly. It’s cool, right?
“Niiro’s current favorability rating with Saotome is…”
Please, I want at least 15. If it had gone according to the original story, it would have exceeded 20, but there were some parts that didn’t go according to the original story, so I don’t think it exceeded 20. If it’s between 13 and 15, it’s okay, but if it’s below 10, it’s hopeless. There are still two heroines left, so I want Niiro to quickly exceed 80.
“21. Well, it’s going smoothly, isn’t it?”
“21! Really 21!?”
“21, 21”
The goddess answers impatiently.
Great! It’s awesome! What the hell, I feel like an idiot for worrying earlier. So you really like Saotome, don’t act weird.
Relieved, relieved, now I can focus on Hisada-chan for a while.
“Hey, is dinner ready yet?”
You’re interrupting my joy.
“How long do you plan to stay?”
If I stay here any longer, I’ll go crazy from stress. Not only will I go crazy, but I might even lash out at the goddess.
“I’ll go home after dinner.”
“So, am I supposed to cook?”
“Of course, I’m the guest.”
“If you’re the guest, don’t just barge into my house.”
“Oh, if you say that, I might be in a bad mood for a while…”
Her mood determines my approval rating, so she’s threatening me by saying she won’t let me check my approval rating unless I cook dinner tonight.
Is this really something a goddess would do?
“Fine, fine. I’ll make it, so keep coming by to check my favorability.”
“Why are you talking to me like that? I’m a goddess.”
“If you’re a goddess, act like one. Don’t just relax in someone else’s house.”
“I’m working hard every day, wearing myself out at my regular job. Can’t you even offer a guest a cup of tea?”
“You’re probably just skipping work and coming here anyway. What kind of person works while wearing themselves out? Besides, I don’t have tea for someone like you. I do have jasmine tea, though.”
“Well, unlike humans, we’ve been working nonstop. We’ve been working since before your grandmother was even born. And you’re telling me to keep working? Also, I don’t consider jasmine tea to be tea.”
“You’re a goddess, so that’s only natural. What does a goddess even do? Just watch over people? And I think jasmine tea is tea, but maybe I’ll just have black tea.”
“I can’t say what I do, but I’m really busy. Black tea, please.”
“Alright, alright.”
She stopped cooking for a moment and started making black tea.
“Let’s eat.”
The two of them sat across from each other and ate. Eating with a goddess is amazing. Just reading about it makes me nervous, but seeing her in front of me makes that nervousness seem silly.
“You can cook, huh?”
“My grandmother taught me when I was little.”
“That’s why it’s such a hearty Japanese meal.”
“My grandmother is good at Japanese cuisine.”
My grandmother’s Japanese cuisine is the most delicious in the world.
“I was used to Western food.”
“Just eat it.”
I wanted to say, “Don’t complain about someone else’s cooking,” but I used to say that to my grandmother too… I’m sorry.
“Is everything going well?”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, your school life.”
“Well, so-so.”
“Really? You, a hikikomori?”
“I’m popular now.”
“Are you fitting in okay?”
“I’m doing fine. No one has noticed that I used to be a hikikomori.”
“I’m not proud of it.”
Of course you are.
“So, you’ll introduce me to her, right?”
“What are you talking about?”
“What are you talking about? If I raise the affection level of all the heroines to 80%, you’ll introduce me to my grandmother, right?”
“Oh, yeah, of course.”
The goddess’s eyes wandered a little, but I’ll believe her words.
“I want seconds! Seconds!”
“You…”
I was so stunned I couldn’t speak. You should at least get your own seconds. How does this girl even live her life?
“Hurry up!”
“Haa.”
I took the bowl from her and reluctantly went to get seconds.
“You’re a great cook. It’s really delicious.”
“Thanks.”
When my cooking is praised, I feel so happy that I almost forgive my previous actions. If I ever get the chance to eat my grandmother’s cooking again, I want to tell her how delicious it is.

“I’m home~”
“Where were you, Senpai?”
Even goddesses have juniors. Of course, they also have seniors. They’re even in foreign countries. There’s so much to do, but the goddess is supposed to do it all alone? What kind of black-hearted workplace is that?
“The reincarnated person’s place.”
“You’ll get scolded for doing that again.”
“As long as no one finds out, it’s fine.”
“Is that your favorite place?”
“It’s not like that. I’m just checking on the situation.”
This junior seems to think I favor that person. What kind of eyes would make her think that?
“Well, that’s fine then.”
“You have your favorites too, don’t you?”
“I had no choice because of an irregularity. Besides, I haven’t been scolded.”
“I haven’t been scolded either.”
“It’s just that yours hasn’t been discovered yet. Is that okay?”
“What?”
“Saying something like that.”
“So what?”
“It’s about meeting reincarnated people in this world. That’s apparently a pretty big taboo.”
“It’s okay. He can’t do it anyway.”
From what I saw in his pre-reincarnation records, he doesn’t seem to have the guts for it, so I’m not worried about that.
“Are you really sure it’s okay?”
Really, I’ve got such a troublesome junior.
“What about that annoying one who’s always following you around?”
“I pushed that one on you because that’s so annoying.”
Sometimes it shows a scary side.
“Haa~… I wish I could catch a cold too.”
What’s suddenly gotten into you? You want to catch a cold? But goddesses don’t have that bodily function.
“Do you envy humans?”
“If I caught a cold, I could eat porridge…”
“…Huh? Were you watching?”
“Yes! I saw everything! Wow, senpai is so cute. She said he wasn’t your favorite, but she made porridge anyway. Oh, maybe she went today because she sensed he wanted porridge…”
“Delete it.”
“Wait, wait, wait! That’s not funny!”
“I’ll erase your memory!”
“Wait… senpai! …Ahhh!”
