Chapter 390 - New Member 1

Shishio had many memories of the works he had read in his previous life, and those words didn't appear in this world. He also had an "Enhanced Memory," which made it impossible for him to forget, and along with his three times stronger human body, it was simply a child's play for him to copy and paste those stories in this world.

Adding the fact that Shishio also had "Art Mastery" and other abilities mastery, he could also enhance those works became better.

As for the uncomfortable feeling of copying those words, there was no such thing in Shishio's heart.

After all, becoming a famous writer was probably needed to start his plan to allow polygamy in this country.

However, there was one problem, and that was at what kind of work Shishio should write?

There were many works that Shishio could write, but because of his age, there was a work that wasn't suitable to be written by him since it would make people feel weird that he was the one who wrote it.

If Shishio wrote those stories, he might need to create a persona or become a mystery writer that needed to wear a mask all the time.

Still, in conclusion, there were two types of the author that Shishio would become if he became a writer.

The first one was a mystery writer, and the other one was a prodigy writer.

Shishio was only 15 years old, and he was young. Without a doubt, he would become famous and would even receive a famous writer award in this country such as Akutagawa Reward or Edogawa Rampo Prize if he wrote a mystery novel, especially when his family knew about this.

Without a doubt, Shishio could see they would help him to pave his way to becoming a famous writer then become a prime minister.

After all, the status of a writer was obvious to all.

However, Shishio also knew that a writer was also known as a weirdo, especially when the story that they wrote was weird.

Shishio was in deep thought since while his young age was a good thing, it was also a bad thing since there were many things that he couldn't write, such as sensual things.

While Shishio was a deep thought, the time had passed to the next day as he started his first activity on the Service Club.

As Shishio entered the Service Club and greeted Yukinoshita, who was already present, he saw Yukinoshita become weird again. He could see a melancholy and confused expression mixed on her beautiful face. She realized that he had come, but she had a hard time saying something.

"Did you get nervous because of the new member that is invited by Hiratsuka-sensei, Senpai?" Shishio asked.

Shishio knew that it had always been taboo to ask these three questions to a woman: "What's wrong?" "What's happening?" and "Are you angry?"

Without a doubt, if you asked any of those questions, they would sell you "nothing!" with an exclamation mark or a dot.

Shishio knew that a woman was troublesome, but he enjoyed that troublesomeness, or else, it was impossible for him to date so many women at the same time.

"Well..." Yukinoshita shook her head and said, "Not really."

"Then you shouldn't show such a glum expression." Shishio took the chair and sat next to her naturally. "You should smile more, Senpai. I can only see you two days every week, yet I don't see you with a smile. It is a waste of your beautiful face."

"...."

Yukinoshita stared at Shishio for a moment and let out a sigh. "I wonder how many girls that you have seduced with those words."

"You're the only one, Senpai." Shishio smiled mischievously and said, "If it's another girl, I might be too lazy to do such a thing and just ask "what happens?" perfunctorily."

"What about your girlfriends?" Yukinoshita asked.

"Except my girlfriends, of course, right?" Shishio quickly said.

Yukinoshita chuckled and said, "I wonder whether I should tell your girlfriends about this."

"Senpai, if they kick me out, please take care of me," Shishio said, beggingly.

"Your wish!" Yukinoshita said loudly before chuckling happily with their meaningless banter.

Shishio smiled and said, "Your expression is better now."

Yukinoshita blushed and lowered her head slightly since she was shy, but she felt Shishio could still see her, so she covered her face with a book.

"Do you want to eat something spicy tonight or go to the Nyan-Nyan Heaven?" Shishio asked.

"Nyan-Nyan Heaven..." Yukinoshita seemed to be struggling and felt that it wasn't a bad idea to come to the feel better by coming to the cat cafe again later. Unfortunately, a new member was going to join the club, so she couldn't end the club quickly. "Let's postpone the Nyan-Nyan Heaven, but are you going to treat me to spicy food tonight?"

"Oh? It is unexpected that you accept my invitation," Shisho said in surprise.

"What? Is that bad?" Yukinoshita grumbled.

"Of course not." Shishio shook his head and said, "I'm happy if you accept my invitation." He thought for a moment and wanted to taste something new. "We have eaten Korean food before. What about something else tonight?" He had eaten Korean food with everyone before, so he wanted to try something else.

"What kind?" Yukinoshita asked curiously.

Unexpectedly, there were many inconveniences that were brought without a smartphone.

If there was a smartphone and many of those apps, Shishio could check a nice place where he could take Yukinoshita on a dinner.

Shishio thought for a moment and suddenly remembered something. "Have you tried Thai food?"

"Thai?" Yukinoshita dumbfounded and asked, "You mean Thailand?"

"That's right." Shishio nodded and said, "I happened to see that restaurant when I rode my motorcycle. Do you want to go there with me? Or do you want to try something else?"

"Okay." Yukinoshita nodded without a second thought. "I wonder whether there's a spicy dish there." She might have been hooked on spicy food since it made her mind feel refreshed. While a cat also could make her mood better, she didn't want to use the sacred cat as a means to make her feel better.

A cat's worth way more than that.

Yukinoshita wouldn't allow someone to trample the cat's worth!

Still, if Yukinoshita went to the Nyan-Nyan Heaven, she would be in the best mood than ever, but she didn't have time now, so she decided to compromise with spicy food.

"There should be." Shishio nodded, then asked, "I'll pick you up after I take my motorcycle. You should change your clothes, Senpai."

"Okay." Yukinoshita nodded, then looked at Shishio for a moment, and asked, "Shishio-kun."

"Hmm?"

"Don't you want to ask what's happening?" Yukinoshita asked.

Shishio looked at Yukinoshita for a moment since he was surprised for her to initiate the conversation since he knew that this girl wasn't the type who would tell what had happened to her, enduring everything silently since she had gotten used to being alone.

However, it seemed his presence had changed, and Yukinoshita had trusted her, or...

Let's talk about other possibilities in the future.

"Do you want to tell me?" Shishio asked.

"Well..." Yukinoshita hesitated for a moment and said, "You know... when we went out before?"

"You mean when we went to the cat cafe and Korean restaurant?" Shishio asked.

"Yeah." Yukinoshita nodded and let out a sigh. "My sister saw us."

"...Is that a trouble?" Shishio asked and felt confused while thinking that the relationship between Yukinoshita and her family must be bad.

"It's not a big problem, but it is troublesome." Yukinoshita let out a long sigh again. Luckily, her sister didn't tell her mother about this, and she just shut her mouth and ignored her as usual. It was successful, and her big sister stopped pestering her to ask about Shishio. However, she felt that it wasn't so simple since she knew her big sister's personality. "She kept asking me about you, so you need to be careful in case she might appear before you." While she wasn't sure what her big sister would do, she knew that her big sister planned to do something big for Shishio.

"I mean, isn't it normal?" Shishio suddenly asked.

"Normal?" Yukinoshita looked at Shishio in doubt.

"I mean, her sister was seen walking out with a scumbag. If she wasn't worried, it would be weird, right?" Shishio said with a smile.

"....."

Yukinoshita was silent since she felt that Shishio was right. If she had a sister and saw her walking with a scumbag, she would, of course, become worried. She then nodded and said, "That's true."

"...Can you at least refute me?" Shishio was speechless.

Yukinoshita smiled and said, "But aren't you one? You even acknowledged it to the entire school."

"Even that's true..." Shishio sighed and also wondered why he spent time together with this girl instead of going with his girlfriends. "So, what kind of person is your sister?"

Hearing this question, Yukinoshita felt complicated, then said, "...She's a perfect type of woman."

"I see..." Shishio nodded.

"What can you see?" Yukinoshita looked at Shishio with doubt.

"Senpai, while you might doubt me, I'm good at seeing one's personality. After all, if I can't do this, there's no way I can get many girlfriends, right?" Shishio said confidently.

"...Just tell me, what can you see from our previous conversation?" Yukinoshita asked and ignored Shishio's previous remarks.

"While I haven't seen her, she should be the type of someone who has never shown her true personality, especially with how your family condition is. She has to be the face of the family, but she's perfectly alright with it. She has this mask on her face that makes people think that she's the perfect type of woman. She also cares about her family, but she has worn her mask for so long that she can't forget to take it off now, so her way of caring for her family might be quite twisted compared to normal people." Shishio explained, then said, "It's just my imagination, though. It isn't real, alright?"

However, Yukinoshita was in silence and didn't say anything for a moment as if she was in deep thought.

Shishio also didn't say anything and took his book, letting her think for a moment.

When Yukinoshita stopped thinking, Shishio suddenly asked, "Say, Senpai, like a scumbag be, there's a question that I forgot to ask."

"What kind of question is that?" Yukinoshita asked weirdly.

"Is your sister a beauty like you?" Shishio asked.

"...Scumbag," Yukinoshita said with a sigh. "You have five girlfriends now. Don't you have enough?"

"I'm just asking a natural question that should be asked by a boy around my age," Shishio said naturally. "However, I can see that she should be a beauty, considering how charming her little sister is."

"...Don't seduce me so suddenly." Yukinoshita felt that her face was burning red, but she still said those words coldly, trying to hide her embarrassment.

"I'm not seducing you, Senpai. I'm just telling the truth. It's like an apple is red, a sea is blue, and Yukino-senpai is a charming girl in my eyes. It's not okay to say that," Shishio said.

"Okay, enough! Enough! Stop saying something like that, or I'll report this matter to your girlfriends!"

"Senpai, you're cute."

"Shishio! You're my junior! Don't be so cheeky!"

While the two bickered to each other, the door suddenly opened, interrupting them.

Shishio, Yukinoshita, Hiratsuka, and a stranger that they didn't know were in silence, especially when Shishio and Yukinoshita were so close to each other.

"...Have we bothered you?" Hiratsuka asked with a pained expression.

"...."

Shishio wondered what he should do right now.
