There were many twists and turns, and it was a bit of a mess, but I think it’s safe to say that Hisada-chan’s prologue is now complete.
When I went to look for Hisada-chan and found that Saotome wasn’t there, I wondered what would happen, but I used my power play to forcefully straighten out what had been bent.
Like how a strong man bends a frying pan, a strong man tried to bend the original work, but I used even greater force to restore it to its original form. …Is that hard to understand?
Also, I was happy to get to experience being the protagonist for just a little while. I’m starting to worry if I’ll ever find happiness that surpasses that.
I was really moved when Saotome carried Hisada-chan on her back. I think it’s strange that plastic bags are free but plastic bags are charged for.
I can say that this is a very satisfying prologue. I’ll give it a perfect score!
Well, in that case, I’m curious about Niiro and Hisada-chan’s favorability ratings for Saotome. I think they’ve gone up quite a bit this time. If things continue like this, even if I don’t try hard, my favorability rating will naturally go up, and I’ll quickly reach 80%, right?
Please make it so I can check the favorability rating anytime! Since it depends on that goddess’s whims, I can’t check the rating anytime. I’m bored, so just stay there forever. …No, actually, it’d be a hassle if you stayed forever.
There’s a bit of time before Fumi-chan-senpai’s prologue, so during that time, since it’s not in the original work, I’ll just start my ordinary school life as Mizuno Shota again.
“Wii.”
“Yossu.”
I exchange a unique greeting with Saotome. After being together for so long, even exchanging greetings becomes a hassle. It’s not that we’re on bad terms, but we don’t even make eye contact anymore.
“If you fail the final exam, you’ll have to attend remedial classes. Are you okay with that?”
“Of course not.”
“Yeah, right.”
“What about you?”
“It’s pointless to ask.”
“Really?”
Before I was reincarnated, I was a hikikomori, but I became a hikikomori in the middle of my first year of high school, so I don’t have any knowledge of high school studies from before my reincarnation. In other words, I’m studying high school again from scratch.
The parts I didn’t understand before my reincarnation are still unclear even after reincarnating and taking the classes again. Things I don’t understand will remain unclear forever.
Thinking about it that way, I’m glad I didn’t reincarnate into another world. Without the knowledge from before reincarnation, even if I had reincarnated into another world, I wouldn’t have been able to create anything, perform treatments, or make anything. I would have just been able to worry alongside others. The only information I could provide would be something like, “Bread is delicious when dipped in stew.” “Wow, that’s true! The dry bread tastes better when dipped in stew!”… That’s not enough to be considered knowledge cheating.
“Want to have a study session?”
“The two of us idiots?”
The two idiots would just repeat, “Do you understand this?” “I don’t understand,” over and over again.
“You did that on purpose!”
“Ha? Stop picking on me.”
As the two idiots were talking, Hisada’s voice suddenly echoed through the classroom.
What? When people raise their voices, I reflexively flinch, so please stop. This isn’t in the original story, so maybe it was cut out?
“Do you have any proof that I did it on purpose?”
“Tch.”
Hisada-chan seemed like she wanted to say something, but she clicked her tongue and sat down. The trio looked at Hisada-chan, who looked so disappointed, and happily left the classroom. They seem so petty.
“What happened?”
“I don’t know. It’s none of our business.”
I finally understood the situation.
This is a future development, but during the preparations for the school festival, Hisada-chan plucks up the courage to confess to Saotome that she is still being bullied by the trio and their group. Then, at the school festival, something happens that makes them suffer, and there is a famous scene where she cries and thanks Saotome for the first time. I remember this scene well because it made me cry so much.
She was rebelling at first, but gradually she stops rebelling, and the scene where she consults Saotome because she realizes that this is not good is also very moving. For the sake of this scene, it is necessary to turn a blind eye to the bullying.
That’s why Hisada-chan needs to be patient for now. It must be hard, but she has to endure until the school festival.
“Is it okay?”
“Huh? It’ll be fine. More importantly, we’re in danger too, so we want to avoid extra lessons if possible.”
If the protagonist steps in and stops the bullying here, it will change the original story. Well, it’s going smoothly according to the original story for now, so I don’t feel like I need to do anything.
In the original story, Saotome doesn’t notice Hisada-chan’s bullying, which means that the trio is doing a good job of hiding it. The other students in the class are all good people, so if they see anything, they’ll tell the teacher, which means they’re hiding it pretty well.
I’m impressed, even though it’s not good because I was openly bullied before I was reincarnated. Above all, Hisada-chan is strong, so she never complains or shows any weakness. That’s why no one notices or realizes what’s going on.
For now, I hope nothing happens until Fumi-chan’s prologue begins.
“I’m home~”
“Welcome back~”
She’s here again.
“Hey! Don’t just barge in!”
That damn goddess, barging into a teenage boy’s house again. Couldn’t she at least have said something the day before? We’ve got stuff to do too. …No, I mean, laundry and stuff… like, dishes.
“Shut up. I’m tired from work. Show some consideration.”
“If you want consideration, act like a goddess.”
“Wow, you say that. I’m getting tired of trying to show goodwill.”
“You damn goddess.”
…I wanted to say that, but I managed to hold back at the last moment. Maybe I let out just one word. But as long as I don’t say everything, I’m safe.
“Please don’t say that~. humans exist because of goddesses.”
When you’re being humble, you have to go all the way. Showing off my pride here won’t do me any good. When I’m shown favor, I’m completely weak, and all I can do is grovel and apologize.
“You know that. Oh! And the pudding in the fridge looked delicious, so I ate it.”
“Hehe, go ahead and eat as much as you want.”
I absolutely won’t forgive her. I can’t forgive her. If she has a boss, I’d demand a pay cut of over 30%. But if I did that, she’d probably come back to my place for food again, so just let me punch her.
“What? You seem to be doing pretty well lately.”
“Hm? Oh, yeah. There was a little irregularity, but it’s mostly going according to the original plan, so it’s going super smoothly.”
The reason I’m being humble to this damn goddess is because things are going smoothly like this.
“How do you know things are going smoothly?”
“Knowing about reincarnated people is part of a goddess’s job.”
“So you’re doing your goddess job after all.”
“What do you mean ‘after all’?”
“Because I’ve never seen you doing your job.”
“I reincarnated you, didn’t I? That’s a legitimate job!”
“Huh.”
“So, what are you going to do?”
“What?”
“What about that rude girl? She’s being bullied, isn’t she? How are you going to solve that?”
The girl with the foul mouth must be Hisada-chan. If she knows she’s being bullied, then she really knows about me.
“Why would I solve it? If I solve it here, then it won’t proceed according to the original story, right?”
She knows about me, but she doesn’t know the original story of Tokidoki. If she knew, she wouldn’t bother asking me.
“…What’s that?”
Her face, which had been smiling stupidly a moment ago, suddenly turned serious.
Scary. What’s with this guy? Does she have a split personality?
“Are you serious?”
“I’m dead serious. I mean it.”
I’m trying my best to meet my grandmother, and what’s necessary for that is to follow the original story. Everything else doesn’t matter.
“You’re not going to do anything? You know about it and you’re just going to ignore it?”
“I already said that. What are you trying to say?”
The goddess’s roundabout way of speaking made me irritable.
“Forget it. I didn’t think you were that kind of person.”
The goddess stood up and started getting ready to leave.
“Hey, wait! What about the favorability rating?”
I desperately tried to stop the goddess, who was about to leave before telling me the affection level.
“It’s following the original story, right? So it should be high, right?”
“That’s too vague. Come on, bring out that book. Boom!”
“I’ll come back when I feel like eating again.”
“Hey! Don’t leave!”
My wish fell on deaf ears.
What’s wrong with following the original story? Besides, the goddess shouldn’t bring her personal feelings into her work!
Ugh! I won’t be able to see the heroine’s likability for a while! If I can’t see likability, I’ll have to follow the original story even more strictly!
Sigh… This is such a hassle.
