This Eroge Won't Make Me Fall!



I was about to get to class on time, but lazy little Noa had not eaten anything. In the end, I had to whip up some breakfast for her and Keith before I decided to leave.

I thought of lacing them with dish soap but I was running out of it.

In the end, I gave them normal food.

"Then, young master! I'll be doing my own thing, ciao."

"Spy on the other academies for me if you get the chance."

Keith stopped.

"For reals?"

"Yeah, snag a teacher or two if you can."

"You know, I think Mr. Keith is just as stupid as you but he can really pull a lot of ladies." Noa seemed to be slightly surprised at his rizz. Well I was too, he was not just young and handsome but also pretty funny.

"You have no idea, this guy used to change girlfriends like you would change hats."

"It's too much effort young master."

"Is that why you go to brothels?" I asked, leaning on the table.

"Nah, I never pay there."

"What a bitch?"

"They are usually messed up in the head, young master. I guess our tastes are similar in that regard."

"Ahem ahem!" Noa started coughing.

"Not to call you messed up at all, Miss Noa."

"You're making it worse, now go."

Keith bowed and off he went away. In the end, I finished cleaning the dishes that I didn't trust either of the other two the slightest bit with and returned to the room.

Noa had hopped into her own and was changing. I picked up a bag and went down stairs, slamming the door shut.

Noa jumped out of her house too and we made our way through the enormous and practically empty island of our faction.

"We should get more people here," said Noa. "But on the other hand I don't want to."

"Right? It'll feel weird if we have more people. Albert was smart. Four is enough."

"Yup," Noa said, gently clenching my sleeves. "I won't be able to enjoy my time with you that way."

"Is it? Seeing how loud you are, I thought you want people to know what you're up to."

Noa suddenly blushed, clenched her fists, and started hitting my shoulder.

"Ow, Ow! Sorry!"

"Bastard."

I held her hand and leaned over to her cheeks. With my hands holding hers tight, I gently pecked her cheeks.

"I won't let anyone in this world hear you like that."

"T-that's not even romantic, what the hell…."

Noa only pushed me away.

"Get lost…"

She was blushing though.

I grinned and kept a hold on her hand as we made our way through the many bridges of the academy city, the floating archipelago wide. She seemed to be shy at first, but then interlocked her fingers with mine as we continued onward.

Not long after, we finally found ourselves inside the giant glass building that made up the academy. We climbed up to the first floor and over to the last classroom where Class A was assigned to.

The same old group of people were inside. I was about to leave her hand but she only let go once we were inside.

"This is not your class," I told her.

"Oh!" Noa hummed and then turned away.

What?

Was she that clumsy?

I ignored it for now and passed by the seats. My reputation as the tyrant of the library and a bully hadn't completely gone yet, but no one was scared or hated me anymore. They all saw me as a cold guy that was actually very nice and would risk himself to save the student body from demons.

As this was the first time since that incident that I had attended the classes.

"Hey! Eugene Hall, morning."

"Morns, Eug."

"Ew? Did you just call me ew?"

"No no, OUCH!"

I dusted my hands waved at everyone and went back up.

Hah.

How nice it was to not carry a demon cat along. That Billy better not have gotten rid of the damned Cat cafe.

I sat up on my seat and greeted my two seat mates.

"Looking ugly, shit faces."

"Won't you know what shit looks like. Not like you can see anything else."

"Foul play man, but I agree with Albert."

"Make your own comeback."

"Make your own comeback."

Stupid Luka.

I sat down and crossed my legs. It seemed Irina was still a bit away.

The two Fonias twins… were on their seats too. Marcin noticed my gaze and gave a wave and I waved back. Classes sure were weird, there was a strange sense of distance even though one could just act like normal friends on any other occasion.

"By the way, we're getting a new student today."

Albert nodded. "About time."

"We are?" Luka asked. "A new student?"

Albert turned to Luka when the door opened. He couldn't say a word as Irina strode inside. She noticed me and smirked.

"Look who we have here today. The great lord has graced us with his presence."

I grinned.

"My blessings are with you," I said.

"Alright write a thirty page apology letter for missing classes."

"Hey! I had an excuse!"

Irina looked down, and then looked at me again.

"Then write one for your snarky remarks."

Bitch, make me do it.

She held in a chuckle and turned to the entire class.

"Alright kids, we have a transfer student coming in today." At Irina's words, the door opened once more and a girl walked inside the classroom, her hair a shade of dark purple.

"Introduce yourself."

The girl bowed.

"I am Marissa Merlot from the Pinot kingdom. It is my pleasure to be in the same class as you."

Pinot Kingdom?

I turned to Albert.

"You know her?"

"Yes… but…"

Both of us looked at Luka.

He seemed… utterly disinterested.

"She's a sub-heroine."

But the hero.

"Hm? What are you two looking at? Is there something on my face?

Seemed to have no idea of who she was.

Well, well, well, now what was going on here?
