What's Wrong with Adding Me to So Many Omni-Anime Geniuses? Chapter 530
The only thing that stood out was the fragrant and plentiful breakfast on the restaurant table, and a note next to it.
The note was written in beautiful, elegant handwriting, almost like calligraphy:
[To Teacher Shizuka:]
Breakfast is ready! Remember to eat first, it's my own creation, so don't leave any!
I'll take a shower and change my clothes to get rid of the smell of alcohol from last night. I should still have time for a shower.
I specifically called you an hour early, you're welcome! (Hand-drawn thumbs-up emoji)
Also, I've brought the sports car back for you, so you don't need to look for it in the hotel Parking Lot anymore!
Also, the room was a bit dusty, so I cleaned it for you. You probably don't mind seeing your scattered comics, games, underwear, and stuff, right? After all, you're a grown-up.
I've washed and ironed your dirty clothes; just look for them in the closet. I've also washed, dried, and put away your unused shoes.
I've prepared some convenient snacks for you to eat for the next while; you can put them in the fridge... By the way, why is there only wine and chocolate in your fridge?
I ran out of bathroom cleaning supplies and kitchen seasonings, so I replenished some of the same brands. I also added some of my favorites. Let's try them out; they seem better than what you have now.
Why is your teaching and summer plan on the desk in the study only at the beginning? I've finished it for you, no need—you should thank me for that!
Lastly, don't forget to relax in your spare time. I did finish reading my novel, which deserves praise! You're truly a worthy Mandarin teacher!
But—I checked your save progress for "White Album" on the disc—it's not even finished the prologue?!
What have you been doing all this time?! Just drinking and chatting with the manager, haven't you?! Next time, Nijika will definitely give you guys a good talking-to!!!
I've put the gift I prepared for you on your desk. Go look at it after you finish eating and take a shower, before you go to school.
That's all, see you later!
"..."
After staring at the note for a full two minutes, Hiratsuka Shizuka finally put it down and pinched the bridge of her nose.
Looking around the spacious, bright, and subtly luxurious interior of her apartment again, a sudden wave of tears welled up in her eyes. She felt that this room had never felt so quiet and empty before...
"That naughty thing... after doing so much, did it even get a good night's sleep last night?"
After a moment of joy, sadness, and worry, she finally looked closely at the breakfast on the table. "Let me see what I made: tamagoyaki, soy milk, soup dumplings, Ramen —does this guy think I'm a pig?"
"By the way, where did he get the ingredients... um? Ramen?"
Her beautiful eyes were fixed on the bowl of noodles that looked and smelled delicious, and her thoughts drifted into memories.
Come to think of it, she remembered once when they ate Ramen together, they made a promise that he would cook for her himself next time. It's just that there hasn't been a suitable opportunity, so it hasn't happened yet... Thinking of this, her heart warmed.
Without even bothering to wash up first, her empty stomach from the hangover made her pick up the chopsticks placed next to her and start slurping.
"The gluten is so bouncy... It's definitely a bit mushy now than it was at the beginning. I should have eaten it earlier."
"The broth is so delicious... it's even better than any other restaurant I've ever had..."
"Soup dumplings... soy milk... tamagoyaki..."
"... But you don't need to make so much, I'm already full... Never mind, I'll eat a little more."
After she finished eating, she ate much slower and began to mutter about Sakurakoji Talent's "arrogance."
Her cheeks were flushed from the heat of the food, the color spreading to her translucent ears, her eyes gentle and moist.
"You have no manners at all! If you see someone else's underwear, you should just pretend you didn't see it!"
"And that guy, does he even want to control my leisure time? I'm a teacher! How can I have so much time to play games! Especially dating games! Isn't this just rubbing salt into my wounds?"
"He actually dared to write his own lesson plan! I'll go check it out later! If it's bad, I'll make him write a self-criticism!"
"What's the gift? I really want to see it..."
"What do my new toiletries smell like? I really want to touch and smell them..."
"I really want to go to the Starry right now..."
"..."
A drop of clear water inadvertently fell into the little soup left, splashing up beautiful, clear ripples.
"I really want to be in a relationship..."
One hour later.
Having completed all preparations, Hiratsuka Shizuka arrived at her final stop before leaving: the study.
Despite her constant complaints, she continued to follow the order that Sakurakoji Talent had suggested.
To be honest, she doesn't come here often; she just uses this room. She prefers to do teaching-related work at school, and only takes home anything she can't finish.
Even the books on the bookshelves inside, apart from teaching materials, are mostly her favorite action-packed fighting comics.
However, she prefers to stay on the sofa or in her own bed rather than in the study.
She strode into the small room and immediately noticed two symmetrical rectangles placed on the neat and clean desk.
On one side were several thin sheets of black and white paper, and on the other side were two unopened, color comic books...?
The shape was so familiar to her that she couldn't be more familiar with it, causing her to flutter her long eyelashes a few times.
What happened? Where's the gift you promised?
She picked up the brand-new comic book, and the rather novel art style made her burst out laughing.
"Haha~! Who drew this? What kind of bizarre art style is this? Will this sell well?"
"Let me see who the author is, Yukimi Sakura? Who is that? There's a manga artist named her--"
She stood there stunned, her delicate body motionless.
Suddenly something occurred to her, and she quickly looked at the few A4 sheets of paper next to her.
At the very top of the lesson plan was a note written in my familiar handwriting:
This is the latest work I promised to draw for you last time. It's my first time drawing a fighting manga, so please bear with me if it's not very good.
This is an unpublished, pre-released signature dictionary—a collector's edition with maximum value! I love Teacher Shizuka, okay?
The two books have the same content, so take one to school to pass the time, and keep the other as a souvenir. Ghana~]
"..."
After reading the comments, Hiratsuka Shizuka turned her gaze back to the manga cover, lost in thought. The art style that had seemed strange just moments before suddenly felt much more pleasant, and even the character wearing a hat looked quite dashing.
That rascal, he actually went and started drawing fighting manga, huh? I just mentioned it to him when I visited the Service Club last time...
She clutched the two comic books tightly, so tightly they were almost twisted and deformed, and hopped around on the spot with her legs bent, looking just like a teenage girl in love, with the corners of her mouth uncontrollably turning up.
"Mmm~ Hehe~!!!"
"... Since it was drawn for me, wouldn't I be considered a co-author of this comic? I should be, right? After all, I was the one who suggested it before he agreed to draw the fighting game!"
"Let me see the name!"
"Eh~ JoJo's Bizarre Adventure..."
Chapter 480 I must study hard!
Leaving Hiratsuka Shizuka's apartment, carrying breakfast sealed in an expensive insulated box, Sakurakoji Talent arrived in Fuchu City.
Since he's already started cooking, how could he possibly only cook for one person?
In fact, he not only made several extra breakfasts, but also lunch—although he made them at the mansion, as there weren't enough ingredients elsewhere.
First, they continued preparing lunch at the mansion, then went to the villa that had been prepared for Shiina Mahiru, and waited in the living room for a while.
"Talent Brother?"
Rubbing her sleepy eyes and yawning cutely, Shiina Mahiru came down from her room. When she saw him, she rubbed her eyes again in surprise.
Although he now uses his abilities to frequently visit her, it's rare for him to come so early in the morning.
After confirming that everything was correct, Shiina Mahiru ran up to him and bumped into his arms, burying her cute little face in his and rubbing against him. "What's wrong? Why did you come so early?"
She didn't know anything about the fantasy side; she just thought that he must have gotten up very early to come over so early.
Well... that's not entirely wrong, he really didn't sleep for very long last night.
It was already past midnight when he got back to Hiratsuka Shizuka's house. Cleaning, laundry, ironing, shopping, writing lesson plans, playing games, visiting the study, taking a shower, cooking... it took him quite a while.
"Nothing much~ I just wanted to come over and have breakfast with my 'little sister'."
He gently bumped her head against her little head; the sweet scent of the young girl was wonderful.
Although she had just gotten up, she had already dressed in her school uniform: a dark blue top with a red and white bow tie, and a brown mesh skirt over black bodysuit stockings...
Her pure and lovely face was considered young for Hitori high school student, but her beauty was undeniable.
Miss Tachikawa had been standing ramrod straight to the side since the beginning, smiled knowingly at the harmonious scene.
Actually, waking up the master is also a maid's duty, but Shiina Mahiru is used to being independent. Not to mention waking up, even when making lunch boxes, she tries to just let her help out.
"Okay, go wash up now. We'll have breakfast together later; I made it myself today!"
He gently ruffled her unkempt flaxen hair and gave her a light kiss on her soft, smooth face.
"Uh-huh..."
Shiina Mahiru glanced shyly at the maid, then walked blushingly toward the washroom.
A dozen minutes later.
"What a feast..."
Staring longingly at the open food box on the table, Shiina Mahiru sighed.
In addition to common Japanese breakfast items such as tamagoyaki, fried eggs, and seaweed, it also offers international dishes such as milk, soy milk, wheat bread, fried bacon, and soup dumplings.
What? Why were only four items left for Hiratsuka Shizuka? Of course, it's because we were afraid she'd overeat.
After all, she got the most filling Ramen, which can't be stored for long.
"Did you make all of these yourself, Young Master?"
The maid, Tachikawa, was also surprised.
"That's right, Miss Tachikawa, please sit down and eat with us."
"No, how can I sit at the same table with my masters? It's against the code of conduct for a maid... I'll eat later."
"It's okay. Mahiru usually insists that you be with her, right? Just act like usual."
"Haha... we've been exposed?"
"After all, I know her very well. Come on, let's eat together."
"Understood! Then I shall respectfully accept your offer."
Two minutes later, the delicious breakfast received unanimous praise from both of them.
To borrow Miss Tachikawa's words: It was so delicious I almost swallowed my tongue!
"By the way, Mahiru, I have a question for you."
After swallowing the soup dumpling in his mouth and taking a sip of milk, Sakurakoji Talent looked at her.
"Hmm? What is it?"
Shiina Mahiru raised her large, innocent eyes, like those of a little rabbit, and gently fluttered them.
"I attend the school in Asahi, and the midterm exams start next week. What about you guys?"
"We're about the same, probably the week after next."
"I see. Although I think you should be fine, I still think I should ask."
"Yes! I won't let Talent Brother down!"
Shiina Mahiru stood with her arms crossed in front of her chest, speaking with unwavering confidence.
"Great! You're such a good sister! I'll take you out to play after you get first place in the exam!"
"Hehe~ Now we need to think about where to go."
