The self-introductions finished quickly, and Yi Chen wanted to see what the card he had received in exchange for tossing away his own rotten face was.
Chabashira arrived in class to introduce herself, then proceeded to inform us about the school's rules.
When she mentioned that we would have 100,000 points to spend, the whole class erupted in cheers.
Yi Chen thought to himself:
Right, there's this point business? Do I even have a phone?
Yi Chen patted his pocket and discovered that there really was a phone inside.
He held it, examining it repeatedly.
To his surprise, the Advanced Nurturing school emblem was on the back.
Yi Chen then looked at the cheering crowd with disdain:
"How naive. As if pie would ever fall from the sky."
Ignoring them, Yi Chen busied himself with his own affairs:
"Angel, are you still there? Let me see that Diamond Card."
The card appeared once more.
Diamond Card:
Whirlwind Triple Kick
Description:
(After use, you will master the Whirlwind Triple Kick. When used at a special moment, it will produce miraculous effects.)
Yi Chen:
"..."
"Whirlwind Triple Kick? Why not give me a blueberry hairpin instead?"
After using it, a strange image flashed through Yi Chen's mind of a man wearing a hairpin, and then the Whirlwind Triple Kick was mastered by Yi Chen.
Soon, Chabashira finished introducing the school and began taking attendance for the entire class.
"Angela Yi Chen? Has Angela Yi Chen arrived?"
Chabashira called out.
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka turned to look at him, but at this moment, Yi Chen was still daydreaming about seizing the perfect opportunity—it's now, Yi Chen.
"Angela Yi Chen."
Yi Chen:
"Yi Chen? Are you calling me? Here!"
The surrounding students couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"Hahaha~ Angela Yi Chen?"
Chabashira sighed helplessly at Yi Chen, who had taken so long to respond:
"Student Angela Yi Chen, please pay attention to the lecture next time."
Yi Chen turned to stone:
Angela Yi Chen? Angela? Is that me?
Chabashira continued taking attendance as she watched the petrified Yi Chen.
Yi Chen:
"Angel? What's going on? Why am I called Angela Yi Chen?"
Angel:
"For the sake of the world's consistency, we have repaired your existence. You are now a new individual, so your name is similar to everyone else's."
"Besides, haven't you noticed that everyone here speaks Japanese? You can understand and speak it as well."
Yi Chen's face darkened:
"But it can't be Angela, right? How are people supposed to call me in the future?!!!!"
Angel:
"Names are randomized; there's nothing I can do. Your household registration is already filed, so what else can you do?"
Yi Chen:
"...Can I check my personal information?"
Angel:
Name: Angela Yi Chen
Age: 15
Birthday: 7.15
Height: 178cm
Weight: 58kg
Cards: 1 Bronze, 1 Diamond (Diamond > Gold > Silver > Bronze)
[ Intelligence: C+/ Combat: C/ Judgment: C/ Athletics: C/ Teamwork: D ]
Angela Yi Chen:
"...With this setup... can I see Ayanokoji's?"
Angel:
"Not at the current stage. You can try to obtain more cards."
Soon after Chabashira finished taking attendance, she told everyone that the remaining time was for self-study and that they were free to explore the school.
Angela Yi Chen took out his phone; it had no passcode lock.
Upon opening it, he saw that there were not many applications installed.
Angela Yi Chen quickly tapped on the S System panel.
Sure enough, he saw his 100,000 points and his name.
"Angela Yi Chen"
Angela Yi Chen slumped dejectedly onto his desk, his mind constantly complaining about this inexplicable situation.
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, sitting in front, glanced back at Angela Yi Chen before standing up and leaving just like the other students.
At this moment, a few of the more active students gathered around. One of them said with a smile:
"Angela Yi Chen, that's a very unique name."
Angela Yi Chen rolled his eyes, not wanting to respond, but another student continued:
"You were acting pretty cool during the self-introductions, weren't you? Turns out you have such a funny name."
Looking at these background characters, Angela Yi Chen sighed helplessly and also stood up, preparing to explore the campus.
Just then, Kushida came up to Angela Yi Chen to exchange phone numbers, and he quickly complied.
Kushida:
"Yi Chen, do you want to go to the cafe for a cup of coffee? I feel like you're a very interesting person."
Looking at the well-endowed Kushida before him, Angela Yi Chen thought:
Holy crap, isn't this the one who backstabs Ayanokoji? Can my Whirlwind Triple Kick handle her?
Oh wait, combat power doesn't seem useful against a schemer. If I agree, I might get set up; if I refuse, she'll be unhappy and set me up anyway.
After a moment of thought, Angela Yi Chen shook his head, sighed, and put on a gentle facade:
"Sure, Kushida. Thank you."
The two headed to the cafe together. On the way, Kushida asked seemingly offhandedly:
"Yi Chen-kun, were you acting that way on purpose during your self-introduction today?"
Angela Yi Chen looked slightly embarrassed:
"Yes, I was. How did you figure that out?"
Kushida smiled gently:
"Because you apologized to the person in front of you. Usually, someone like that wouldn't apologize."
Angela Yi Chen:
"Thank you."
After entering the cafe and sitting down, Kushida smilingly ordered two cups of coffee.
Angela Yi Chen quietly observed his surroundings, pondering a countermeasure. Once the coffee was served, Kushida took a light sip, then suddenly changed the subject:
"Yi Chen-kun, what are your thoughts on the future?"
Angela Yi Chen was stunned, then replied:
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Just then, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Horikita Suzune walked into the cafe. Seeing Angela Yi Chen and Kushida together, they both frowned slightly.
Kushida noticed Horikita Suzune's gaze, and a strange glint flashed in her eyes.
Angela Yi Chen caught this change and felt a secret thrill, quickly waving for Ayanokoji to come over.
As Ayanokoji approached, Angela Yi Chen smiled:
"Classmate, your name is Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, right? Come sit with us."
Kushida looked at Horikita Suzune with a slightly stiff expression, but still forced a smile to welcome her.
Angela Yi Chen let out a sigh of relief, thinking to himself:
Now that there are more people, it should at least divert some of Kushida's fire.
The group continued to chat idly, and soon Kushida Kikyo also exchanged contact information with Horikita Suzune.
After finishing their coffee, everyone returned to their respective dorms, and on the way, Yi Chen went to buy some daily necessities.
He had originally intended to buy a handheld console to play with, but unfortunately, the high-spec ones were too expensive, so Yi Chen bought a set of manga to read instead.
Passing by a small alleyway.
Yi Chen observed that no one was around and stepped into the alley.
Angel:
"Now is the time, Angela. Yi Chen, use Whirlwind Triple Kick."
Yi Chen tried it out and really managed to execute the triple kick, and it only made him break a light sweat; it seemed the physique of Yi Chen in this world was quite alright.
At the same time, from a window high above the alley.
Ryuen watched the Whirlwind Triple Kick performed by Yi Chen below:
"This guy? Is he from Class D? Interesting."
Yi Chen returned to his dorm full of joy with his manga. Just as he sat down to read, a passerby A, B, and a red-haired guy arrived at his dorm to find him.
They were Sudo Ken, Yamauchi Haruki, and Yukimura Teruhiko.
Yi Chen felt slightly nervous:
School bullying? Perfect, I can use you guys to test my skills.
Sudo Ken heard this and hurriedly joked:
"We came to make friends with you. We think you're quite interesting."
Immediately, Sudo Ken held out a beer and handed it to Yi Chen:
"Yi Chen? I can call you that, right? I'm Sudo Ken, nice to meet you."
"Hello, I'm Yamauchi Haruki." "Hello, I'm Yukimura Teruhiko."
Two voices followed immediately.
Soon, the group became familiar with each other, learning that because of Yi Chen's self-introduction and his tendency to anger the teachers just like them, they felt Yi Chen was one of their own.
They wanted to be friends with Yi Chen.
Yi Chen smiled helplessly, not minding it at all.
That night, the group chatted about many interesting things, including the pretty students in their class.
Late at night, everyone returned to their own dorms to rest.
The next morning, Yi Chen woke up early, washed up briefly, and headed to the classroom. The students hadn't all arrived yet, so he found a seat by the window and sat down.
Not long after, Kushida Kikyo walked in, and upon seeing Yi Chen, she flashed a sweet smile and greeted him.
Yi Chen responded politely as well.
The bell for class rang, and the homeroom teacher walked into the classroom and began the lecture.
Yi Chen listened to the lesson while quietly observing the students around him.
After class, Sudo Ken ran over and dragged Yi Chen to the playground to play ball.
On the playground, they encountered students from Class C.
Several boys from Class C acted arrogantly, provoking and mocking Class D.
Sudo Ken was so angry he was about to throw a punch, but Yi Chen held him back, a faint smile on his face as he said:
"It seems fighting in this school leads to expulsion, so let's not resort to violence."
Angel:
"Mission issued":
"Have a basketball solo against the provocateurs from Class C."
Victory: 1 Silver Card
Defeat: 1 Bronze Card
Hearing the mission.
Yi Chen immediately struck a righteous JoJo pose:
"You bunch of stinking things, mere Class C, we will surpass you soon enough."
Class C punk:
"Hahaha, you think you can surpass us? Don't daydream in broad daylight."
Yi Chen looked at Sudo Ken, then looked at the people from Class C.
Yi Chen:
"If you've got the guts, let's play a game of basketball. I'll show you how I can rap circles around you."
Soon, the group started playing basketball. Yi Chen had loved watching sports anime in the past, and he had seen quite a few basketball anime as well.
Therefore, Yi Chen would always put on his overalls when the night was deep and quiet.
Just like that, Yi Chen and Sudo Ken's trio engaged in a 4v4 against Class C.
After a bout of singing, dancing, and rapping, Yi Chen obtained a Silver Card.
Silver Card: Sprint Genius Description: After use, speed increases by 200% for 20 seconds; user suffers from weakness for 30 minutes.
Yi Chen looked excited:
"This is awesome, it'll be top-tier at a critical moment."
Time continued to move forward, and because of the charisma of Sudo Ken and his friends, as well as Yi Chen himself, they had pretty good relationships with many people in the class.
They discovered that Yi Chen was actually not that hard to get along with; instead, they found him to be both handsome and funny.
