"Ohayo, Sora-san."
"Ohayo, Mikan-chan."
A familiar morning, a familiar voice.
Looking at each other through the window, Sora and Mikan couldn't help but smile at the same time.
"Where's Lala-san? Ara ara... living with a single and cute alien beauty, isn't Sora-san doing some naughty things?"
She really liked the cheerful and lively Lala. Mikan playfully winked and said in a joking tone.
"Heh... that's not a bad suggestion. Lala is beautiful and cute, and she's a noble and beautiful princess. She really seems to be my type..."
Avoiding the question of where Lala was, Sora acted as if he had been reminded, touching his chin with a thoughtful and lecherous expression, which made Mikan across from him laugh speechlessly.
A tacit understanding had formed between them. The two of them enjoyed this brief exchange every morning very much. After joking around and chatting for a while, Mikan said goodbye and went to prepare breakfast for herself and Rito.
Looking at the girl who had already left, the smile on Sora's face gradually froze, replaced by an expression that was trying to hold back something but was also unusually brilliant.
He stood there by the window for a long time before letting out a muffled groan. Then his whole body trembled slightly, and an expression of relief and pleasure finally appeared on Sora's face...
"Waaah... Sora, my mouth is so numb..."
Lala's voice. She stood up, rubbing her pink cheeks and complaining a little to Sora.
"You did a great job, Lala. Just a few more practices and you'll be fine."
A devilishly evil curve appeared on his lips. Sora patted Lala's head with a look of praise and admiration.
"Mm!!!"
Getting Sora's praise, Lala nodded vigorously with a happy expression, and the slight complaint in her heart also disappeared...
...
For some reason, after waking up early, Rito had a strange feeling. It seemed that today would be an extraordinary day for him. It was as if something mysterious in his body was quietly awakening, as if it was the beginning of a happy event, or the beginning of a nightmare...
Feeling that he had been having some strange illusions recently, Rito didn't take it too seriously. Mikan had already gone to her school. He picked up his schoolbag and locked the door. Just as Rito was about to habitually go next door to call Sora to go to school, he happened to see Sora and Lala also coming out of the house.
"Ohayo, Sora-san, Lala-san, what are you guys doing?"
Walking up and greeting them, seeing Lala also with Sora, Rito asked with a little confusion.
"Ohayo, Rito-kun."
"Lala is staying at my house for now, so I'm planning to let her go to school with us. I'll handle the enrollment procedures for her later at school."
Waving to Rito, Sora replied.
"Hehehe... Sora said we'll be classmates from now on!"
"Hey, hey, Rito, is school fun? I've never been to school before!"
Holding onto one of Sora's arms and jumping around, Lala had an expectant and excited expression. As the number one princess of the galaxy, she naturally didn't need to go to school. In the past, excellent teachers came to teach her individually.
However, although those teachers were all excellent, Lala didn't learn anything from them because she treated them all as toys. Almost none of them could last for three days before being broken by her. For a "legendary" place like school, Lala was extremely expectant.
Smiling awkwardly, Rito didn't know how to answer Lala's strange question. It was Sora who tapped Lala's little head to make this overly energetic girl behave.
It was almost time for class, so the three of them didn't delay any longer. They walked to school together, talking and laughing. With the lively and cheerful Lala around, the road was filled with youthful and beautiful laughter.
Looking at Lala who was always jumping around Sora and was extremely attached to him, Rito couldn't help but feel a little envious. For a moment, he even felt that Lala should be attached to him...
Rito, who had come to his senses, was startled. He quickly shook his head to dispel that strange feeling. His feelings for Haruna-chan were sacred and unchangeable. How could he think of other girls? It was so wrong.
He must repent... he must repent...
Sora and Lala didn't know that Rito was repenting in his heart for that pure love. They only found that he had suddenly become a little silent and didn't talk much, but the two of them didn't care much, flirting with each other along the way.
In no time, the three of them had arrived at the crossroads near the school. To their pleasant surprise, they happened to run into Haruna, who was also on her way to school.
"Yo, Sairenji-san!"
"Ha... it's Haruna, ohayo!"
Sora waved and greeted Haruna, while Lala happily ran over and hugged her.
"Waaah... Lala-san..."
Feeling that Lala was like a child in some ways, Haruna didn't dislike her. It was just that she, who had always been more reserved, was a little at a loss with such close contact with someone else.
After hugging Haruna to show their closeness, Lala let go and skipped back to hug Sora's arm, which also made Haruna breathe a sigh of relief.
"Ohayo, Sora-san, Lala-san, Rito-kun."
Slightly tidying up her clothes, Haruna, carrying her schoolbag, also politely greeted the three of them.
"So cute, Haruna-chan..."
Although he had gotten much better recently, facing such a dignified and beautiful Haruna-chan, Rito instantly entered a daze. He felt that he was so lucky today to have met Haruna-chan here.
"Ohayo, Sairenji-san..."
Rito also greeted Haruna, walking towards the girl as he spoke.
He was so in love with the girl in front of him. She was so beautiful, gentle, dignified, virtuous, and reserved... almost perfect without any flaws.
Although Lala-san was cute, Dr. Mikado was sexy, Tenjōin Saki-senpai was noble, and there were many other outstanding and beautiful girls. But in Rito's heart, the only one he liked was the Haruna-chan in front of him.
Closer... closer... even though it was just an ordinary encounter, just an ordinary greeting, Rito felt immense joy from it, and his heart thumped wildly.
And at that moment, looking at the girl who was already so close, Rito felt as if something in his body had completely awakened...
And then—
His legs went weak, and he fell towards Haruna-chan in front of him!!!!!
Time seemed to slow down at this moment. Looking at Rito who was falling towards her, Haruna's pupils dilated, and her face was filled with astonishment and panic.
And when Sora saw Rito falling towards Haruna, his originally calm face instantly became unusually brilliant. A sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he seemed to be extremely excited!
Has it finally awakened, the super divine skill that set Rito on the path of a beast—the godly trip!!!
At this moment, Sora really had the urge to laugh out loud. Rito-kun, Rito-kun, your "good days" have finally come!
This was a truly historic and great moment. The godly trip skill that made countless otaku in the heavens and myriad worlds grit their teeth in hatred had finally awakened! If it weren't for the fact that Rito was almost about to fall on Haruna, Sora would have wanted to take a picture to commemorate it.
Having long been looking forward to this moment, a devilishly evil smile appeared on Sora's face. He directly activated light speed, and with a flash, he disappeared from the spot...
"Huh... where's Sora? Where did Sora go?"
Suddenly realizing that Sora had disappeared, Lala tilted her head in confusion, looking left and right for him.
"Ah..."
Haruna's cry sounded on the street, instantly attracting the attention of all the pedestrians.
Most of them were boys and girls also on their way to Sainan High. When everyone looked in the direction of the cry of alarm, they were first slightly stunned, and then—
Their jaws dropped!!!
The scene of Rito falling on Haruna and touching some inappropriate places did not happen. Haruna, who had cried out in alarm, had already changed her position and appeared next to Lala, and the people who were attracted did not turn their gazes to her.
"Sora, you're back!"
Seeing Sora, who had disappeared and reappeared in front of Haruna, Lala had a happy expression.
"Sairenji-san, are you okay?"
Patting Lala's head to signal her to be quiet for now, Sora said to Haruna with a smile.
"N-no, I'm fine..."
Answering blankly, completely unaware of what had happened, Haruna's face was filled with endless confusion.
Didn't she just get pushed down by Rito-kun who accidentally fell? Did Sora-san save her?
Her mind was in a mess. She was really scared just now. It must have been Sora-san who saved her.
Although being pushed down by the careless Rito-kun wouldn't have caused much harm, as a girl, being treated like that on the street was still very embarrassing and had a bad influence. Haruna couldn't help but cast a grateful look at Sora.
With a slight smile, Sora didn't say anything, but stepped aside, and Haruna couldn't help but look in that direction.
The kind girl had been worried about whether Rito was okay, but when she saw the scene that was frozen not far away, Haruna's face couldn't help but stiffen, and her expression instantly became brilliant.
The originally noisy street fell into a dead silence, and the girls' faces instantly flushed red.
"Ooh... it hurts, it hurts..."
Feeling that he had grabbed something in his hand, Rito, who had fallen to the ground, raised his head.
"Hey, Rito, what are you doing on the ground?"
A boy's voice, it was Rito's only friend, Saruyama.
He had appeared here at some point and had even taken the place where Haruna had been standing, but it seemed that this guy hadn't noticed it himself yet. He was just wondering why Rito had suddenly appeared and was lying in front of him.
"Ah... ah ah... Sa-Saruyama..."
Stunned, looking up at Saruyama's two hairy thighs, the mysterious peak protruding from his triangular shorts, and the pants that had been pulled down in his hands, Rito felt a loud bang in his head, and his mind went blank.
"Huh... wasn't I almost at the classroom? What happened? Why is everyone looking at me?"
Saruyama-kun scratched his head cutely. Although he thought he was quite outstanding, he was a little embarrassed to be stared at by everyone with those strange eyes.
He couldn't help but look down. The originally bewildered Saruyama-kun's expression also stiffened, and his eyes, which were locked with Rito's, widened and widened...
And then—
"Ah!!!!!!"
"Ah!!!!!!"
