Omni-Anime Geniuses Are Everywhere! What's One More with Me? Chapter 107

"I see..." Kogisora Akina tried her best to avoid being impolite, covering it up with a faint smile.

"..." Kogisora Takhiro seemed to want to say something, but ultimately didn't.

"I'm sorry to have made you all laugh." Sakurakoji Talent glared at Kogisora Yukina, and after receiving a cute tongue-out from her, he said helplessly.

"Well, I would laugh at anyone else, but you, Sakurakoji- Bro, definitely deserve it!" Kogisora Takhiro scratched his head, indicating that he didn't need to worry about it.

"Exactly, I don't find that reason strange at all!"

"You should try to suppress your laughter before saying that, Mom..."

"Sorry, sorry!"

"..." Sakurakoji Talent couldn't help but touch his face with his fingers, a rare moment of embarrassment on his part.

"By the way, Yukina, why did you suddenly come here today? You didn't even tell me beforehand."

"Hmm? Oh, well, since school starts soon, I thought I'd come over and have some more time before it starts," Kogisora Yukina explained her motivation. "And then, my mom and Takhiro found out and got curious about where you work, so we came over together."

"I see. So, what do you and Takhiro think of this place? Aside from its unique functions, there's nothing particularly special about it, is there?" He looked at the two of them through the mask.

Speaking of which, as the start of the school year approaches, it seems like I'm surrounded by students like this everywhere.

However, since Kogisora Yukina, Ichiji Nijika, and Kasumigaoka Utaha are not in their first year of high school and do not have an opening ceremony, and even if they did, their families would be there so he wouldn't have to worry about it, he doesn't need to go and participate like Shiina Mahiru.

The Delinquent Girl in Kawasaki have even less reason to do this, and the reasons are self-evident.

In the apartment, Aoyama Nanami and Shiina Mashiro are both second-year high school transfer students. The first-year students like Ashiri have enough acquaintances to fill two mahjong tables, so they don't need him either.

Although Bocchi-chan and Haqi Xiang are first-year students, he doesn't know them yet, so for now, as long as he takes care of Shiina Mahiru the day after tomorrow, he can focus on preparing for his own school opening the day after tomorrow.

While taking a sip of water, he processed this information in his mind and arranged his itinerary for the next two or three days.

"No, I think it's great, although I'm a little surprised that it's underground," Kogisora Akina replied with a smile. "When we were at the entrance just now, I thought Yukina might have gone to the wrong place."

"Yes, yes, those dark entrance steps can indeed cause misunderstandings," Kogisora Takhiro nodded in agreement.

"But putting that aside, I found this place to be quite nice once I came in. It's spacious and there are lots of people, and Sakurakoji-kun's sweets are delicious. I wonder if there will be a band performance later? I'm really looking forward to it."

"That's right, Mom! The performance later is going to be really fun! You all need to watch carefully, everyone is very talented, it'll be just like a concert!"

"No, let's just call this a concert, albeit a small one," Sakurakoji Talent corrected sarcastically.

"Hehe, then I'll look forward to it." Kogisora Akina looked back at him and changed the subject, "Sakurakoji-kun, like Yukina Takhiro, is starting school soon, right?"

"Hi, I'll be starting school next Monday." He nodded.

"It's going to be really tough after school starts, you said you're not planning to quit your job, right?"

"Yes."

"It's good to work hard, but please don't push yourself too hard."

"Thank you for your concern, I'll handle it accordingly."

"If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to contact us anytime. Don't worry about causing us trouble."

"Thank you. If that's the case, I will." Sakurakoji Talent was slightly touched and replied with a faint smile.

"Mom, you're acting like an old lady." Kogisora Yukina looked at her mother with a helpless expression. Why did she seem to care about her and her younger brother even more than usual? "Talent-kun isn't a child anymore. He'll figure things out."

"You silly child, who are you calling an old lady!" She tapped her daughter on the head. "To me, you're still just kids!"

Kogisora Yukina pretends to cry and sticks out her tongue at Sakurakoji Talent, accusing her of atrocities.

After a while, as the PA-modulated sound filled the underground space through the speakers, the night's performance began.

"The performance has started, so we won't disturb you any longer, Sakurakoji-kun." Kogisora Akina called to her two children and said goodbye to Sakurakoji Talent.

"It's alright, Auntie. My main task was just for that short while, and there wasn't much else to do afterward, so I won't bother you."

"That won't work either. If it takes up too much of your time, your boss will gossip." She smiled and shook her head in refusal.

"It's okay. Although our boss isn't good with words, speaks in a way that's hard to understand, is a bit arrogant, is also an ultimate siscon, is quite childish in some ways, and is terrible at housework... she's actually a good person." Sakurakoji Talent Hands, swaying his silver-white hair, and introduced Ichiji Hoshika one by one.

"I see..." Two beads of cold sweat appeared on Kogisora Akina's forehead as she worried about his overly detailed explanation.

"Really? So that's how I am in your mind."

A hand landed on his shoulder, and the sharp pain in his collarbone instantly froze Sakurakoji Talent's sunny, smiling expression.

Ichiji Hoshika moved her head from behind him to his side, revealing a rare "warm" smile, "Hey, Talent! It seems like it's been a long time since we had a heart-to-heart talk, come here, let's have a good chat today?"

After saying that, she let go of him and walked towards the room at the back.

"Please enjoy yourselves, gentlemen. I apologize for my rudeness." He patted imaginary dust off his shoulder and forced a smile as he addressed the three.

"Are you alright?" Kogisora Yukina asked worriedly.

"It's alright, it's alright. Like I said, don't let her appearance fool you, she's actually a good person. She was just being a little tsundere again."

"Talent!"

"Coming right now!"

Sakurakoji Talent's expression was stiff. After giving a forced smile, he turned and walked towards the empty room at the back.

"..."

"..."

"... It really wasn't easy," Kogisora Akina remarked.

"Todoroki, that's really not easy." Kogisora Yukina agreed wholeheartedly, nodding with a sly smile.

"Who are you looking at? I'm talking about you!" Kogisora Akina scolded playfully.

"Huh? Me?" She pointed to herself in surprise.

"Of course, you silly girl." Akina sighed, rubbing her forehead. "With so many competitors, how come you still have no sense of crisis?"

"... What are you saying, Mom?" She glanced sideways at the band walking onto the stage.

"You'd better really not know," Kogisora Akina said to herself, turning her gaze to the stage as well. "That kid is so talented, he must have a lot of fans. Although you, Yukina, are also excellent, you're no match for Sakurakoji-kun."

Volume 1: The Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 144 The Planned Hero Saves the Damsel

"After coming here today, I'm even more certain. Just in this workplace alone, there are several exceptionally cute kids. Including that beautiful shop manager from earlier; although she seemed angry, the look in her eyes was definitely..."

"You said that among the people who took you home last time was a girl from your school, right? And she was also a very pretty girl."

"..." Kogisora Yukina remained silent.

"And this is just here, I imagine it's the same in other places... Sakurakoji-kun, you seem to have a lot of qualities that attract girls, after all, you're so outstanding."

"..."

"Go for it, my daughter!"

"... What are you thinking, Mom! I didn't..." Kogisora Yukina puffed out her cheeks.

"Even if you don't have any now, it doesn't mean you won't have any later, right? Don't regret it later. Great friends of the opposite sex are always fleeting; they'll be snatched away by someone else very soon." Akina's expression remained unchanged as she used her life experience to teach her.

"I..." Kogisora Yukina stammered, even she herself was confused about this matter.

And I dare not make any rash judgments, that such a thing will not happen in the future, although it probably hasn't happened yet.

Although she has plenty of experience being confessed to, her experience with love... is about the same as her experience of getting the top score in the whole school.

"..."

Ten minutes later,

Sakurakoji Talent rubbed his buttocks as he walked out of the recording studio at the back, muttering to himself, "Just talk, why get handsy?"

She wasn't like this before. Could it be that she's been spending too much time with Hiratsuka Shizuka lately and caught this Strange Illness of 'typing faster than speaking'? He guessed.

That despicable Hiratsuka Shizuka, she's really done so much harm!

He inexplicably muttered a few critical words about Teacher Shizuka, then pretended nothing had happened and returned to the stage. The Xiaogiso family was no longer there; they had probably gone to watch the performance.

He didn't see them again until the evening performance ended.

"Ah! I'm so satisfied!" Kogisora Yukina walked back with a refreshed expression.

"Seriously, I can't even tell if it's someone else performing or you, sister. You were singing along the whole time, weren't you?"

"What does it matter? Everyone's the same way anyway."

"No, you were the only one who was with me the whole time..."

Kogisora Akina glanced at her children, who were performing as expected, and said gently to Sakurakoji Talent, "Then we'll be leaving now tonight. Thank you for your time, Sakurakoji-kun."

"No need to bother you, let me see you off."

"No need~ It's not just Yukina who's alright today, don't worry about us, just go about your business."

"I see..." He nodded, not insisting further, since it was indeed true. "Then, Auntie, Takhiro, please take care, and welcome to visit again next time."

"Hehe, we will."

"Hey, Sakurakoji Bro."

"What about me, Talent-kun?" Kogisora Yukina pouted and frowned slightly, expressing her dissatisfaction that he hadn't called her name.

"Yukina, you..." His expression was subtle, "Since we see each other so often, we don't need to be so polite with each other, right?"

"Hehe, you're right!" Kogisora Yukina's deliberately tense expression instantly crumbled, and she raised her hand to her chin with a light laugh. "I was just saying."

"We'll meet again in a few days. I'll have to trouble you with what I mentioned last time then."

"What we talked about last time? Ah—you mean that!" She tapped her hands, her expression suddenly realizing, "Is it finally about to begin?"

"Yes, it will take a while, but it will be soon. Before that, we must persuade that Black-haired Princess."

"Touma-san, she seems a bit more than she appears. She hasn't sent a single message in the group chat these past few days..."

"So I'll need to trouble you to put in a bit more effort. I'll leave it to you while we're at school, and I'll also do some persuasion work outside." Sakurakoji Talent glanced sideways and emphasized this point again.

What he didn't say was that although the black Princess didn't speak in the group chat, he had still chatted with her twice in private messages.

"Understood! Leave that to me!" She put her hands behind her back, raised her head, and puffed out her rather full chest, readily agreeing.

"We'll be going now, bye-bye~ Talent-kun!"

See you next time~

After exchanging greetings, the three walked outside, and one could still vaguely hear words like "What are you saying?"

Outdoor,

"So you mean, Sakurakoji-kun is actually quite wealthy, and out of interest, he's currently preparing to produce a game and has invited you to participate?" Kogisora Akina exclaimed in surprise after hearing her daughter's explanation.

Well, that's about it.

"No wonder that child didn't even blink when he gave her that expensive gift last time, so that's why..." Kogisora Akina frowned as she thought, and everything made sense.

"Sakurakoji- Bro is actually a tycoon? No wonder he's like that." Kogisora Takhiro exclaimed in amazement, his eyes wide, then his expression turned slightly bitter. "Does he even have any flaws? As a fellow man, this is just too much of a blow."

Compared to this, Kogisora Akina was concerned about other things. She sighed and covered her face in disappointment, "It's over."

"Oh no, sister."

"What are you talking about? We're talking about Talent-kun, aren't we? Why are you suddenly dragging me into this?!"

"That child was already outstanding enough, now you have even less hope?"

"My sister was already unworthy to begin with, isn't she even more unworthy now?"

"... I'm going to hit you all, especially Takhiro!"

"Eh!" x2

"Mo! I'm not going to care about you anymore!" She stormed off toward the station.
