Teacher

[Simulation ended, please accept your rewards]

He Cheng-rui opened his eyes. His first action wasn't to accept the rewards, but to sit on the bed and process 29 years of memories.

In his previous life, he had only lived for 20 years.

The empty room gave He Cheng-rui a feeling of being in a different world.

"...It's over."

He glanced at the time. It was six o'clock. For people in Shenzhou, it might be time to get up, but he was currently in the Far East.

'I should get up and make something to eat.'

With that thought, He Cheng-rui got out of bed.

While brushing his teeth, He Cheng-rui checked the rewards he had obtained.

The rewards included the Stand Killer Queen, imprints for [Spiral] and [Lovers], and one chance to draw.

'A draw, let's see what I get.'

The system heard He Cheng-rui's thoughts and consumed the draw chance.

[Reward obtained: DIO's skull]

A grown man's skull suddenly appeared in mid-air. He Cheng-rui summoned Killer Queen to catch it.

"Seriously, what kind of item is this? What use is DIO's skull?"

He Cheng-rui grumbled. After finishing his morning routine, he returned to his room and placed DIO's skull on the table.

Then, he opened his status panel to check his condition.

[Host Name: He Cheng-rui] [Basic Ability: Language Mastery] [Stand: Killer Queen] [Imprints: Spiral, Lovers] [Simulation Count: 0 (Cooldown: 90 days)]

"Looks like I can't simulate again for a while."

Afterward, relying on his memory, he found the kitchen and started making breakfast.

He brought breakfast to the table and stood up, then paused, letting out a helpless chuckle before sitting back down.

"I was going to call everyone for breakfast, haha. Now it's just me."

"I need to recover quickly."

"I am He Cheng-rui now, not Yoshikage Kira."

But seeing the Stand behind him, He Cheng-rui fell silent.

"...Being Yoshikage Kira isn't so bad either."

He ate breakfast quickly, then read for a while before heading out to report to the school.

"Good morning, Mr. He Cheng-rui."

"Good morning, Miss Mei. Are you heading to school?"

"Yes, I'm a student at Senba Academy."

"What a coincidence, I'm planning to teach there myself recently."

"Oh? Then let's chat as we walk."

He Cheng-rui nodded and walked alongside Mei.

"Um, Mr. He Cheng-rui, if I recall correctly, Senba Academy is a girls' school. Did they agree to let you teach there?"

"Who knows? I can't figure out why my application was approved either."

"Then it's my turn to ask. Why did you move here, Miss Mei?"

"I'm a new student at Senba Academy, and it's closer to the school, so my father had me move here."

Mei's expression showed a hint of worry as she spoke. Considering their relationship, He Cheng-rui didn't pry further, merely nodding to show he understood.

They weren't very familiar with each other, but fortunately, Senba Academy was indeed close to both their homes, so they didn't have to continue the awkward small talk.

As they entered the campus, a teacher greeted them.

"You must be Mr. He Cheng-rui. Please follow me."

He Cheng-rui nodded and followed the female teacher.

They walked in silence until the teacher led He Cheng-rui to the principal's office and knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Hearing the response, He Cheng-rui pushed the door open and entered the principal's office.

"Mr. He Cheng-rui, it's a pleasure to have you as a teacher at Senba Academy."

"The reasons for recruiting you will be sent to your phone later."

"For now, the only requirement from the school is that you cannot lay a hand on the students."

"...Naturally."

"Yes, of course, we have great trust in you, Mr. He Cheng-rui, otherwise, we wouldn't have recruited you."

After speaking, the principal clapped his hands, and the female teacher from before entered, signaling He Cheng-rui to follow her.

Leading He Cheng-rui to a room, the female teacher said, "This will be your exclusive office from now on."

"If there's anything you don't understand, you can come ask me."

"I have other things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Remember to head to the conference hall at nine for the freshman orientation."

With that, the female teacher left in a hurry.

He Cheng-rui pushed open the door and inspected his room, finding nothing out of the ordinary.

Then, he sat in his office chair and began to read.

'That female teacher, she's Cocolia's person, isn't she?'

'Starting to make her move this early?'

He Cheng-rui did not possess the physical strength that Yoshikage Kira's Killer Queen had gained from absorbing Honkai Energy.

'In that case, it's better to be cautious.'

After the freshman orientation, He Cheng-rui headed to the class he would be teaching.

With his handsome face and the elite aura inherited from Yoshikage Kira, He Cheng-rui immediately captured everyone's attention upon entering the classroom.

"Wow, is that the new male teacher? So handsome, so handsome!"

"Stop acting like a fangirl, you're drooling. Maintain some composure."

He Cheng-rui ignored the students' chatter and turned to write his name on the blackboard.

"Hello everyone, I am your new male teacher. The name on the blackboard is mine, and I will be responsible for your physics class from now on."

"Let's start by choosing a physics class representative. Raise your hand if you're willing to take on the role."

As soon as he finished speaking, most of the students raised their hands.

"With so many volunteers, I'll just draw one name from the roster."

"Raiden Mei, you'll be the physics class representative. How does that sound?"

"Okay, I will do my best to assist the teacher."

"Alright, let's proceed then. We'll begin the lesson."

After school, the two headed home together.

"Miss Mei, aren't you afraid of gossip if we walk together?"

"You're my teacher now, so walking together shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Mei didn't seem to mind, so He Cheng-rui didn't press the issue further.

During dinner time, He Cheng-rui heard a knock on the door.

"Coming, coming."

When he opened the door, Mei was standing there.

"Is something wrong, Miss Mei?"

"Uh, could I have dinner with you?"

"?"

Seeing He Cheng-rui's confused expression, Mei blushed and quickly explained, "I used to have a dedicated chef cook for me at home."

"Where is that chef?"

"My dad seems to have forgotten."

"Aren't you afraid I'm a bad person, coming to my place alone?"

"My intuition tells me you're not a bad person."

He Cheng-rui was taken aback for a moment, then after a brief silence, he let Mei in.

"...Come in."

"I'm truly sorry to bother you, teacher. I'll pay for this meal."

"No need. Consider it a perk for being my class representative."

Afterward, Mei insisted on paying, but He Cheng-rui repeatedly refused and never accepted the money.

Mei took a bite of the food He Cheng-rui had made and was surprised.

"Teacher, your cooking is as good as a professional chef's."

He Cheng-rui nodded without saying anything.

"I wish I had your cooking skills."

"...Your cooking will be very good in the future."

"Eh, thank you, Teacher."

After dinner, Mei thanked He Cheng-rui and left.

While He Cheng-rui was cleaning up the dishes, he found money pressed under a bowl.

"This girl..."

Looking at the money in his hand, He Cheng-rui smiled helplessly.
