I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo

Shishio must admit it was luxurious for him to drink a warm coffee in the clubroom of the science club.

On the other hand, Futaba was more than happy to have Shishio right next to her.

The two enjoyed their lunches together while talking about many things.

“You want to make a gadget?” Futaba asked in surprise.

People with talent always had a privilege.

It was unfair, but the world was an unfair place, right?

Even though Futaba was just in her 1st grade, she was the leader of the science club. It wasn’t that she liked science, but she felt this was the place where she could show her advantage the most.

Nana also thought of joining this club with the intention of robbing the leader position from Futaba.

However, it wouldn’t be easy since this was Futaba’s castle, and this was her home ground, so she didn’t think Nana would be able to defeat her.

Anyway, Futaba could do whatever she wanted in this clubroom as long as it was related to science. Shishio told her that he wanted to make a gadget, and she didn’t think it was a problem.

“What kind of gadget?” Futaba asked curiously.

“Well, I thought about making a Turbo Engine Skateboard, Stun-Gun Wristwatch, Transmitter Badge…” Shishio told Futaba what he wanted to make.

Listening to the list of the gadgets that Shishio wanted to make, Futaba wasn’t sure why, but she felt Shishio was wearing glasses, a red bow tie, a blue suit, and somehow a unique BGM played, which made her in a daze.

Anyway, Shishio felt anything could happen in this world, especially when he knew how abnormal martial arts were in this world.

The people in this world might have normal physical abilities, but if they trained harder, they could reach a supernatural level, which was unbelievable.

While Shishio didn’t think he would lose against them, he felt it was quite wasteful if he didn’t use his brain. He had money, so no one could stop him from creating something that he had always wanted to create in his previous life.

Frankly, Shishio wondered whether there was someone who could defeat him at this moment. It wasn’t that he was arrogant, but his body was six times stronger than ordinary people. It might not seem like much, but when he fought with all of his might and added all of his other abilities, such as martial arts, breathing techniques, and also a “Fighting Spirit,” he felt he was quite invincible in this world.

However, Shishio knew there was still someone who could threaten him in this world.

Frankly, if this person wasn’t so random or acted based on his whim, Shishio was too lazy to act. However, it might be his instinct that told him he would meet this person sooner or later. He also didn’t doubt they would fight each other.

Shishio hadn’t seen how strong this person was, but being labeled as the strongest man on earth, he knew this person’s power definitely wasn’t something that could be scoffed off.

While these gadgets might seem useless, they had many advantages if he used them in battle.

Some people might say he was despicable or even unfair for doing such a trick, but he was also a ninja after all, so wasn’t it normal for him to play with a trick?

For an enemy, Shishio had never shown mercy. He had killed a father and a son before and even exterminated the largest karate organization in the country.

Even if his opponent was the strongest human on the earth, he would use all of his power to erase this person from the earth!

Still, this side of him definitely couldn’t be shown to his women.

‘Well, as long as he doesn’t appear in front of me, then everything is okay.’

However, instead of preparing a solution, it was better to do prevention, so while they hadn’t met each other, Shishio should prepare everything since if that day came when he knew he had to fight, he would erase this person from this world.

While they talked about the gadgets, Futaba suddenly asked about their trip to Izu. “We’re going to Izu later, right? Is it alright for me to join?” After all, she heard this was part of the literature club activity, and she wasn’t part of the literature club, which made her hesitant to join them.

“Then, you don’t want to?” Shishio asked. Instead of giving the nod and confirming it was alright for her to join, he decided to ask her back. After all, if she didn’t want to, he wouldn’t force her, and frankly, he wanted to tease her.

“……”

Futaba was lost for words since she didn’t expect this situation.

“If you don’t want to, then I’ll tell everyone,” Shishio said flatly, but suddenly the hem of his shirt was held.

“I-I want to join…” Futaba said with teary eyes. After all, who wanted to be left behind? She had tasted the feeling of being with someone. How could she bear the loneliness again?

“Hehe.” Shishio chuckled and rubbed Futaba’s bushy hair.

“……”

Futaba stared at Shishio in silence since she realized she was teased!

Futaba was furious, and she bit his hand without hesitation!

“Hey, stop! Don’t bite me!”

However, Futaba didn’t care and just bit him while hugging him tightly since she was still annoyed!

Futaba thought she should show him the skill she had learned from the biology books she borrowed from her parents. She was smart, and she was fast learning, so she believed she would be able to defeat him!

Right?

While they were flirting with each other, suddenly, the door of the clubroom was knocked on.

Instantly Futaba and Shishio turned and saw an unremarkable young man standing at the entrance of the clubroom.

“…Did I bother you, Futaba?” The young man blankly stared at them, feeling slightly in grief since he must admit watching Futaba flirt with another guy was quite uncomfortable. It wasn’t that he fell for her, but he felt his friend had moved far away at that moment.

Futaba was embarrassed, but she quickly calmed down, then asked, “What’s wrong, Azusagawa? Do you need anything?” Frankly, she felt this guy came at the worst time, but she still maintained her composure since she didn’t want to be teased. She also pinched Shishio’s waist since she was afraid if she didn’t do so, his hand would still be on her buttocks right now.

Futaba glared at Shishio and said in a whisper, “Be quiet! We can do it at home!”

“………” Shishio realized he had changed Futaba into a pervert.

“No, it’s alright. I’m afraid that I have bothered you, right?” Azusagawa glanced in Shishio’s direction.

“Yes.” Futaba nodded generously since she must admit this guy had bothered her.

“……” Azusagawa.

Frankly, Shishio had seen Azusagawa during the gym class since their class often gathered together.

However, unlike him, who was the center of attention, Azusagawa was like a shadow on the side.

“You’re Azusagawa, right? I heard from you in Rio. Thank you for being her friend.” Shishio thanked Azusagawa first since he knew without this guy, Futaba might stay a loner, but right now, she didn’t need him anymore since she didn’t lack a friend.

“Yes.” Azusagawa must admit Shishio’s aura was quite overwhelming, but he was still able to answer flatly.

Futaba looked at Shishio and Azusagawa, but she didn’t think too much since she knew Shishio wouldn’t do anything weird to Azusagawa. Still, even if he did something weird, she didn’t think too much either since right now, Azusagawa was at his lower point. Even if Shishio did something, it was impossible for Azusagawa to be even in the lower position.

“I have heard about you. There’s a rumor that you have put three seniors in hospital, right?” Shishio said frankly.

“……” Futaba.

Azusagawa didn’t care about the rumor and knew it was impossible to fight, so he just nodded with a sarcastic tone. “That’s right. Don’t you feel afraid?”

“No, if I want to, I can put the entire students in this school in the hospital,” Shishio said frankly.

“……” Futaba and Azusagawa.

“Anyway, I know it is a rumor since there’s no way a scrawny guy like you can beat three people to the hospital. I am sure that you haven’t fought either, right?”

“No, but I want to fight you now,” Azusagawa must admit he wanted to beat Shishio up now.

Shishio chuckled then asked, “It’s okay if you want to fight, but let me ask you a question.”

“What?” Azusagawa asked since he wondered what kind of question this king of the harem had for the unnoticeable him.

“Do you want me to erase the rumor about you?” Shishio asked.

“………” Azusagawa was in a daze.

“Can you do that, Shishio?” Futaba asked in surprise.

“If I want to, it’s easy for me.” Shishio nodded, then looked at Azusagawa and asked, “So do you want me to? Or do you still want to maintain this gray-colored school life?”

“Gray-colored life?” It was Azusgawa’s first time hearing such a term.

“Well, all I can say is you’re neither seriously studying, doing a sport, having any type of love relationship, nor you’re chasing after them. In my eyes, all I can do is that you just go to school because it is your duty to do so.”

If Azusagawa was focused on studying or other things, Shishio might not say much. However, all he could see were just dead eyes that just gave up on everything.

The only reason that Azugawa might stay alive was that he didn’t want to cause trouble for his family, and there was still someone who needed his help.

If there was no such thing, Azusagawa might try to commit suicide.

Shishio knew that it might sound exaggerated, but the people in this country would try their best not to bother anyone, even if they were troubled. They would keep their problems deep inside without releasing them. What was even worse, they were alone, without anyone supporting them. Their lives were empty, and they didn’t have any reason to continue their lives.

It might sound stupid to some people, but only people who have this problem understand the feeling.

Even Momo Kashiwabara had this type of problem and even tried to commit suicide. Fortunately, she didn’t do it since if she had done it, she wouldn’t be able to meet him, and she was glad that she didn’t commit suicide now.

People are social animals.

Having a companion is the best treasure that one can have.

Shishio had offered to help, and he wondered what Azusagawa was going to answer.
