Chapter 300
300 – I Was Possessed by an Unknown Cartoon
After passing through the school gate and entering the school building, we met a friendly face at the first floor entrance.
“… Hello.”
This is Mizuki Kozueda, the Raijin priestess who was in trouble due to the commotion related to Chiaki last time.
“Ah, Kozu-chan!”
When Yuika, who was in her class in middle school, approached her and waved her hand, Kozue took a step back with a burdened expression.
However, Yuika didn’t seem to notice and just held Kozue in her arms.
“Tsk… ! Hey, if you talk about this… “
Everyone could see that one side liked it unilaterally, so we watched it with a bitter smile.
“Is Kozudo also a first-year high school student starting this year?”
“… Yes, please take care of me from now on.”
Kozue said that and greeted her in a polite manner.
Seeing that, Rika asked Yaguchi next to her in a low voice.
“Who is it?”
“Do you know Mr. Mizuki of Daily English? I am Mr. Mizuki’s younger cousin.”
“Ah.”
Rika nodded as if she finally understood.
Anyway, since her shouting was over, she decided to part ways at this point.
“See you later! Oppa!”
“Uh, yes.”
“See you all tomorrow too!”
Yuika, who was dragging Kozue with a look of disgust on her face, waved her hand and we parted ways and went up to the third floor where the third grade classroom was located.
Perhaps because she was assigned to a new class, the bulletin board in front of her office was crowded with students looking for their names.
“Let’s go too.”
When Ryuji, who was at the front, said that, we all rushed to the bulletin board without worrying about who would go first.
It’s probably because we all have the same desire to be in the same class as our close friends.
Unlike other kids who took a while to find it, I was able to find my name written in katakana right at the end of the bulletin board.
“It’s class 3-C.”
Then Ryuji, who was looking for his name next to him, raised his hand and said, as if he was happy to see him.
“Ah! I’m also in class 3-C!”
“Oh! Me too!”
“Me too!”
Should we call it a coincidence? Fortunately, we were all assigned to the same class.
With the best result out of all the conceivable cases, even Rika, who had been sulking a moment ago, was smiling happily as if it had never been so.
Anyway, the moment I entered class 3-C with such a friendly atmosphere, a ghost-like silence fell in the class, which was noisy due to the new semester.
“… Ki, this is Kim Yoo-seong.”
“After all, I’m in the same class as that guy…”
The sight of each person whispering in a low voice was not much different from what I experienced last year.
‘I overlooked this point.’
When the class changes, the environment also changes.
Unlike the children in Class 2-B, whose misunderstandings about me slowly dissipated after living in the same space for nearly a year, it was not strange for the children who were newly in my class to have prejudices about me.
As I was trying to sit in the back seat with a confused look on my face, Rika was looking annoyed and trying to say something to the whispering kids.
“Kim! We’re in the same class this year too!”
Suddenly, someone spoke to me warmly.
“Huh? You…”
A familiar face.
One of the tough trio in class 2-B, he is a glasses-wearing pervert who preaches the greatness of maid uniforms.
“It’s Ryohei Kujo. I’m sure you haven’t forgotten your name, right?”
“Oh, no way. I’m afraid I don’t even know the name of the guy who was in the same class for a year.”
To be honest, I couldn’t remember the name so I just smiled awkwardly.
Because we always referred to them as a tight trio, we rarely had a chance to call them by name.
“But I can’t see the other two?”
Flinch!
“Well, actually, I’m the only one in class 3-C. So I guess you could say I don’t have any close friends in the class… “
I guess I hit the nail on the head, but Kujo continued to spit out TMI without even asking.
Well, I know what it feels like.
When you go up in grade and change classes, but you don’t really know anyone, you tend to want to lean on the other person even if you only have something in common, such as being in the same class.
“Please continue to take good care of me in the future.”
When I said that and extended my hand, Kujo looked at me with an impressed expression for a moment, then she said, “Yes!” And she accepted the handshake.
And perhaps it was because I showed this side of me that the gaze of the other children who were watching me softened.
“He might be a surprisingly good guy.”
“Aren’t you kinder than I thought?”
Hmm. This is why first impressions are important.
Thanks to this, Rika, who missed the moment to get angry, flopped down next to me and I spoke in a low voice.
“You were just trying to get angry for me, right? Thank you.”
“Well, it’s not really like that?!”
Then Rika blushed and exclaimed, “Hmph!” And she turned her head.
However, it feels like his expression has definitely calmed down compared to before.
It was the time when she made peace with Rika and waited until the official HR time.
Bang!!
“We were in the same class as expected. Kim Yu-seong.”
She suddenly opened the back door with a loud noise and it was Sasha who came in.
“Hello.”
And it was Karen who stuck her head out from behind.
“As expected, maybe you too?”
When I asked the question after hearing such a meaningful word, Sasha smiled and nodded.
“Of course we are both in class 3-C.”
“Wow! We’re in the same class this year! Karen!”
“Yes!”
Karen was a bit of an outlier in her second year because she was the only one in the class next to her, but she was definitely in the same class this year.
While her best friends Rika and Karen, were holding hands and cackling, Sasha confidently walked in front of me and slapped something on the desk where I was sitting! And she put it down.
“Sign. Kim Yu-seong.”
“What?”
I looked at Sasha in bewilderment as he suddenly started talking like an idiot.
But whether I say so or not, Sasha stated her purpose with her calm expression her her her her.
“I have decided. Since I came all the way to Japan as an exchange student, I will participate in club activities this year.”
“… But?”
“This school didn’t have the department I wanted. So I decided to create it myself. The ‘Mixed Martial Arts Club’.
“… Mixed martial arts club?”
When I mumbled something along the lines of a scary-sounding name, Sasha said as if it was very obvious.
“The goal of my club activities is to train my mind and body day and night to qualify for God of Fighters, or the new GOF, to be held in August this year.”
“…”
I feel like it’s time to come, but honestly, I don’t know where to start.
“I won’t.”
When I said that and firmly refused, Sasha shouted with a shocked expression.
“What! I thought you would naturally become a pillar of our mixed martial arts club!”
“The third year of high school is the time to study, but what kind of mixed martial arts club is this?”
If you have time, just study.
“Ugh!”
When I hit her with a straight argument without hesitation, Sasha took a step back with an angry expression, perhaps because she had nothing to say.
“But I won’t give up!”
Sasha then exits through the back door, saying something like a third-rate villain.
Grumble!
But perhaps because HR was about to start, she came back in through the front door.
“What now, are you taking pictures together?”
Ayase came in through the wide open front door and looked at us in confusion, but all I could do was shake my head.
Anyway, are all the people worthy of coming here?
I thought so as I looked around class 3-C, which had almost no empty left seats.
There are only about 10 minutes left until HR.
If you don’t come in, you are late.
It was when I was thinking like that.
Grumble!
“Ahh! Shape!”
Another familiar voice opened the back door and came in.
“Satoru!”
“Oh, what is it? These are all familiar faces.”
“Why do you make people nervous by coming so late?”
“Oh, my alarm clock just broke today, so I overslept.”
Satoru, who was joking while saying that, took a seat in front of me, which was a fixed seat, and all the empty seats were filled.
So now all that’s left is to wait for a new homeroom teacher?
To kill some free time, I rested my chin and stared blankly at the school route beyond the window.
A beautiful campus with cherry blossoms falling.
‘Now that I think about it…’
How many years has it already been since I came to this world?
3 years? 4 years?
I don’t know the exact number of days.
But now I feel that I am also accustomed to life as ‘Kim Yu-sung’.
When I first became Kim Yoo-seong, I was devastated by the fact that I had been possessed by a cartoon where I did not know the future.
But if you think about it, it is normal not to know the future.
No one will take responsibility for my choices.
Because that’s what human life is like.
The future is definitely full of unknowns.
But I wasn’t afraid anymore.
Because I have lovers and friends by my side who always support me.
Grumble!
It was when I was staring out the window, lost in sentiment.
“Now, pay attention! Pay attention!”
Mr. Matsuda entered the classroom with the attendance book at his side
“Ahh! It’s Matsudana!”
“A gorilla is my homeroom teacher!”
“Who’s the gorilla!!”
It’s a scene that feels like déjà vu.
“It may be unfortunate from your perspective, but I will be in charge of class 3-C from today. If anyone has any complaints, please raise your hand.”
Of course, no one raises their hand…
“Me!”
“Satoru! Is it you again?! I’m sick of you too. Should I just send you to another class?”
“No! Wouldn’t it be better for both of us if you go rather than me!”
Wahahahaha!
As expected, he is a skilled mood maker.
Even though it is the beginning of the semester, only Satoru is able to control the mood of the class among the school members.
Perhaps because the tense atmosphere had eased a lot of thanks to this, Mr. Matsuda opened the attendance report with a satisfied smile.
“Okay, then, let’s start with attendance… I’d like to call you, but I have some good news for you guys.”
“Good news?”
“No way… “
“Yes, I’m a transfer student.”
Another déjà vu.
When I felt a strange premonition and adjusted my posture, Rika next asked me.
From noble mtl dot come
“What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”
“No, I have a feeling that someone nice will come.”
“Someone nice to meet you?”
Just then, Matsuda called a new student who was waiting outside her classroom.
“Transfer student! Come inside!”
“Yes~”
A voice that feels somewhat familiar yet nostalgic.
Eventually, the person who opened the classroom door and came inside was a girl with a slender appearance who caught the eye with her unique white hair.
“Nice to meet you all! My name is—”
I was possessed by a cartoon I didn’t know
