Chapter 3

- What do you expect from a NEET? -

"Umm, Ebi.. Mika-san? Are you that student that never went to school?"

Arisa tried to speak politely, but since my family name was kinda hard to say, she said my first name instead.

"Oh, I think I saw that name in the class attendance record before. It's been... What, two weeks? A month? Maybe a year since it’s last been signed?" Shuu said.

Even he, who had a perfect attendance record seemed to never have seen me before.

"Hmm, haha! Now I remember. I heard of a rumor. Aren't you that creepy woman that always laughs on the rooftop of school alone while watching your smartphone? My friends thought that place is cursed and got scared from incomprehensible chants they heard from the rooftop." The delinquent said to me in a good mood. Seems like he remembered something funny.

How rude, I always come to school! But, when I think of going to school, my legs start to get tired, and I went to school inside my head while sleeping inside my futon.

Sometimes I might come to school, but I can't differentiate if it's inside my head or actually in reality.

Even my parents have given up on me and said, "Do whatever you want."

Also, don't say my love to aimi-chan is a mere chant! My love surpasses time and space, beyond the deep sea and ocean. Someone like you will never comprehend it!

Well, I admit, sometimes I get too far and said everything inside of my head.

"I'm going to sleep.."

Seriously, I'm sleepy.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

I spent too much time with Aimi recently and didn't have enough sleep.

No, I don’t regret it. But, the human body is inconvenient.

They need to sleep, eat, have sex...

Ah, not like I did the last one. But I can understand that feeling.

If I could do it everywhere with Aimi-chan, I would be a thousand times happier. Heehe.

"Ah, wait!"

The girl named Arisa stopped me.

Seriously, what now? I was only interested in 2D’s that transcended time and space, ageless and immortal.

If you’re a 3D woman, don't even try to confess to me, I would refuse. Especially men. Eat shit.

"Uhmm, since we’re both girls and classmates, we're basically friends, right? Let's get along from now on!"

Friends? Huh.. mm, I guess that's fine.

I had already forgotten the last time I made friends.

But seriously, don't cling on me too much like last one.

They kept asking me questions since I knew a little bit about the teacher’s personality and could predicted his question based on that.

I remember most of them never returning my pen after "borrowing" it.

Ugh, just remembering it made me a little angry.

"I guess it's fine."

The brown haired girl got cheerful.

"Yay, let's be friends then, Mika-chan! you can call me Arisa-chan if you want to."

No thanks, too much trouble. Let's just remember her as village girl A.

"Then, goodnight"

I lazily responded since I was sleepy.

"Sure, let's do our best tomorrow to save the world!" Arisa said.

I only gave her a wry smile and answered with a small voice so they wouldn’t hear me.

Unfortunately, it won't happen though.

Yeah, I already made my decision

I won't let anyone or anything tie me down, be it god, demon or buddha.

It's something that I decide myself, even if it's just hypocrisy.

And I won't hand that freedom over to anybody else, even if I know it might be wrong somehow.

Yeah, I won't regret my decision.

I won't regret it, but...

If i could come back to this time -

I would really have stopped myself, even if I need to punch me with all of my might.
