Do You Want to Spice Me to Death?

Himiko Toga lay dazed on the ground, staring at the blue sky, not knowing what she was thinking.

No one passed by. It was incredibly quiet, with only birdsong and the rustling of leaves in the wind.

After a long while, her expression gradually calmed, and she sat straight up. "My first kiss was actually stolen by a U.A. High School student."

At the thought of Chiffon, her face still flushed. For some reason, she actually felt a little interested in Chiffon. It was strange.

She had never liked boys before, only craved prey. That was the thrill of seeing good prey, not the flutter of romantic feelings.

This time was different. She had actually felt her heart flutter, and that was very bad.

After returning home, Chiffon took a cold shower to cool himself down. After all, this was the first time he had done something like that since coming to this world, so it was inevitable that he would feel stirred up. Besides, she was so cute.

But someone like Himiko Toga could only be considered a true lover if he truly possessed her or truly entered her heart. Otherwise, she was very dangerous.

A girl that cute wandered around stabbing people with needles all day, with blood everywhere. That was no good at all.

She looked like some kind of bloody loli.

After composing himself, Chiffon sat cross-legged on the sofa and began his training for the day. Just then, he received Salvation Points.

Salvation Points +50. Person saved: Himiko Toga.

"What's going on?" Chiffon froze. Himiko Toga had been saved by him???

Chiffon thought to himself that he hadn't saved her at all, okay? Did what he had done earlier have even the slightest connection to saving her?

Since he couldn't figure it out, Chiffon simply stopped thinking about it. He needed to accumulate Salvation Points now. He already had 850, and with another 150, he could obtain a weapon and a set of special clothing.

Chiffon felt that the system's items should be stronger than the custom uniforms issued by U.A. High School.

Before long, there was a knock at the door. Inoue Sakura had brought Chiffon a bento. Since it was already past ten, it counted as a late-night snack. Inoue Sakura said that Chiffon was still growing, so it was fine for him to eat more at night.

After Inoue Sakura left, Chiffon opened the bento. The small box was filled with sushi, sashimi, and some fried fish cutlets.

Since coming to Japan, Chiffon had rarely eaten Chinese food. Though he sometimes missed it, the food here was also quite good—very clean and environmentally friendly. Maybe that was one of Japan's characteristics.

The Hero Course schedule at U.A. High School consisted of required subjects in the morning, ordinary classes such as English.

The instructor was naturally Present Mic. His English classes were somewhat boring, and the students did not seem particularly enthusiastic.

At noon, they could enjoy first-class cuisine in the large cafeteria at low prices.

Chiffon casually found a seat in a corner and got himself a serving of Chinese food, since he had not had any in a while.

The food at U.A. High School was first-rate. Whether it was Chinese, Thai, or Western cuisine, they had it all. Chiffon also quite liked fries and burgers.

A serving of Chinese food: scrambled eggs with tomatoes, spicy diced chicken, and sliced pork with green peppers, plus a teriyaki chicken burger and an order of fries.

Chiffon had a large appetite, so this was nothing to him.

He had only taken a few bites of the scrambled eggs with tomatoes when he looked up and saw Izuku sitting across from him, followed by Tenya Iida and Ochaco Uraraka, who all sat down together.

Chiffon thought about it. Weren't these three supposed to sit together? Well, they were sitting together, but they had taken the spot he had chosen.

"Chiffon, shall we eat together?" Midoriya Izuku asked somewhat awkwardly.

You've already sat down, so what can I even say?

"Of course." Chiffon was easygoing. He also liked making friends, and these three classmates had left quite a deep impression on him.

Tenya Iida was blunt and upright. Sometimes, he offended people with what he said, but he truly was a very good person—warmhearted and always willing to help others.

Ochaco Uraraka was kind and very cute. She was always considerate when she spoke and had a kind heart.

As for Izuku, there was no need to say anything. Chiffon knew him all too well.

"Chiffon, I see that you usually like to be alone. Do you find it hard to fit in with others?" Tenya Iida asked directly, without any probing.

"What a blunt classmate." Chiffon inwardly broke into a cold sweat and said, "It's alright. I'm used to being alone, but of course, having classmates and friends is best."

"Really, Chiffon?" Izuku asked happily. He had really wanted to be friends with Chiffon. Chiffon was practically like an idol to him now.

Chiffon used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of curry from Izuku's bowl. "Really, really."

Izuku was not stingy and let Chiffon eat the curry from his bowl, feeling a little happy inside.

After finishing the curry, Chiffon picked up a piece of Tenya Iida's pork cutlet and ate it with relish.

"Chiffon, do you have some kind of habit? Why do you like eating other people's food? Can't you get your own serving?" Tenya Iida said with a frown. He was missing a piece of pork cutlet.

"You eat mine too. It's give and take. I'm guessing you haven't eaten much Chinese food before, right? It tastes great." Chiffon patted Tenya Iida on the shoulder.

With the mindset of giving it a try, Tenya Iida picked up a slice of pork with green peppers and put it into his mouth.

"So spicy!!!" Tenya Iida immediately drained his juice, then looked at Chiffon. "Do you want to spice me to death?"

"No, no, no. If you die from the spice, I can't inherit your Huabei." Chiffon said with a grin. Japanese people were not very good with spicy food, and this dish had been cooked rather authentically, restoring the flavor of Chinese cuisine.

"Huabei? What's that?" Tenya Iida stuck out his tongue and kept fanning it with his hand, trying to ease the burning sensation.

"Nothing." Chiffon then looked at Ochaco Uraraka, who guarded her food warily. "Chiffon, don't get any ideas about my food. Girls can't give food they've eaten to boys."

"That's not what I meant. I meant, do you want to try some Chinese food?" Chiffon said enticingly.

"I refuse!" Ochaco Uraraka gave him no face at all.

"Looks like Izuku really holds a place in your heart. I was rejected so ruthlessly." Chiffon touched his forehead, looking somewhat ashamed.

"Chiffon, what are you talking about?!" Ochaco Uraraka's face instantly turned red. Izuku, on the other hand, did not react too strongly and only felt a little awkward.

Tenya Iida looked at Ochaco Uraraka, then at Midoriya Izuku, seeming to understand something.

"Iida, please don't think nonsense, alright?!" Ochaco Uraraka glared at Tenya Iida.

"Ah, no, I didn't say anything." Tenya Iida said, waving his hands. He had actually been targeted.

The meal ended happily just like that. Chiffon's relationship with these three classmates also became closer. There was still a long road ahead, and he wanted to spend it with the classmates he liked.
