Chapter 375: Shy Girl
After wasting time beating up idiots, I was finally able to go to Umaru's classroom to accompany her to her meeting with her friends.
Saki won't accompany me to Umaru's meeting since she was left in Medaka's care.
Earlier today, Saki went with Hiratsuka to the principal's office as a group of boys came over to confess to her crimes and apologize to Saki for all the bullying.
This was too sensitive a subject, so it was done discreetly so as not to worsen Saki's reputation, so she went to the office together with Hiratsuka and listened to the sincere apologies of the reanimated corpses.
She had to hold back her tears as it was the first time someone regretted hurting her, so Hiratsuka had to stay with the girl in the infirmary until she could calm down.
Saki is a good girl and she said she didn't want to go with me to the meeting so she wouldn't be a bother. She has been with a lot of men, both teenagers and adults, so it will be bad if the idiots recognize her and cause trouble for Umaru's friends.
I told her that she shouldn't worry since I can take care of the problems, but she insisted that she doesn't want to make Umaru hated by her friends.
Hiratsuka overheard our conversation and her attitude towards Saki became more and more gentle, although she also increased her anger towards the boys who abused Saki, as well as being very upset with the girl's parents.
Saki hasn't mentioned it, but I'm sure she was abused by her father and that's why she doesn't want to go back to her house, plus it seems like her mother hates her out of jealousy.
Anyway, I'll have one of my subordinates pay a kind visit to Saki's parents.
After talking for a bit, we decided that Saki would go home with Medaka since she usually stays out late from school since she has a lot of work in the student council.
Actually, Medaka doesn't need to do that much work, but she enjoys having a lot of unnecessary responsibilities. She's a workaholic like me.
Hiratsuka doesn't know that Medaka is my wife and he thinks that we are both neighbors, so he accepted this idea, besides that all the teachers hold Medaka in high esteem since her exaggerated charisma could make her president in a misogynistic country, so she has his own fan club despite having been at the school for less than two months.
For now the student council will take care of Saki and they'll probably even do an investigation on the subject of bullying, which is great. In this way, I will only have to intervene if things are too complicated, such as cases of rape, suicide or domestic violence...
Ah shit, I'll have a lot of work... Stupid social deterioration.
Anyway. It's good that Saki can make friends, maybe that way she can set goals in her life since her mentality is so submissive that it bores me, although I can't deny that her desire not to cause me problems is nice and cute.
When I got to the classroom, Umaru told me that her friends would accompany her since they would also be part of her project.
Marin was very excited at the idea of becoming a cosplay model, not because she would like to appear in magazines or because she wanted money, but because she wants to be a professional cosplayer.

Sylphynford seems to be interested in being a professional anime and video game critic, so she would like to be a part of my sister's project.
(Author's Note: Sylphynford Tachibana from Himouto! Umaru-chan)
Sawako isn't a fan of anime and that kind of wasting time, but she was interested in the idea of making friends, so she was looking forward to getting into the project.
(Author's Note: Sawako Kuronuma from Kimi ni Todoke)
As for Ina, she really loves the idea of being an anime artist, so she's really excited to get into an entertainment agency. Most importantly, she is very happy to be able to interact with people again without everyone dying around her, even though she is still too shy to talk to new people.

From what I heard, Umaru hides her real name on the internet due to the stupidity of the fans. It's better for her to keep her identity a secret, however, she revealed her identity as a internet celebrity to convince her new friends to be part of her project.
Umaru may seem clumsy, naive, innocent and childish, but at times she can be quite manipulative to get what she wants. In this case, she wants friends with the same hobbies and whom she can trust.
If I'm not mistaken, in the future Umaru plans to reveal the truth of the multiverse to her friends, so she can take them to anime worlds to play, but all under my care. Because of this, she seeks to make her friends fall in love with me, so they can be like sisters...
Ah, spoiled brat.
So, we headed to the meeting place.
"So, Luis-senpai knows all the martial arts and can also use acupuncture?" – Marin asked me with a lot of emotion like a child who knows Santa Claus.
"Something like that" - I smiled wryly. – "Actually, I designed my own martial art and one of its characteristics is to absorb the techniques of other martial arts"
Justifying my strength with martial arts sounds better than saying that I subdued my mental problems until they became a Lovecraftian nightmare.
"Oh!" – Marin seemed to have stars in her eyes. – "Maybe Luis-senpai is a demonic cultivator who uses dual cultivation to become stronger, that would explain why Luis-senpai is a womanizer, maybe Luis-senpai is a protagonist with an NTR system"
...
I insist, this girl's imagination never ceases to amaze me because of how accurate it is...
"Hey Listen! Your life is so cliche and uncreative that even a dumb blonde can figure out your life hahahahahahaha!" – Navi was laughing in my mind...
Umaru shook her head gently. – "Onii-chan does not need an NTR system, he is the NTR and that is why our neighbors hated us, Onii-chan prefers married women"
My mouth twisted and I landed a small whack on the brat's head.
"Onii-chan itai yamete kudasai!" – Umaru looked at me with teary eyes...
"Wow, Luis-san looks like a handsome sadistic villain" – Sylphynford looked at me with admiration...
Now I'm sure the internet rotted these girls' brains...
I sighed and we kept walking.
The girls started talking about anime bullshit that I don't care about, so I looked at a silent girl who was awkwardly walking next to me.
Sawako is a bit shy, but at least she can talk to me without looking at my face, on the other hand, this girl doesn't even dare to make a sound since she's too nervous.
I looked at Ina and she sent me a telepathic message to explain.
Apparently, Umaru and Ina saw this girl when they went to the bathroom. Umaru is afraid of being alone when she's not home, so Ina is always by her side, even when she goes to the bathroom.
The girl is very beautiful and seems to have a natural grace that makes her stand out, but Umaru doesn't care for people who don't match her hobbies, so she didn't mind, however, Ina recognized the girl from some series that she liked.
Ina is an Great Old One capable of destroying a low level World, but she is still too timid, so she convinced Umaru to talk to the girl.
Umaru's exaggerated social skills made the girl equal to a piece of gum stuck to my sister's shoe, so she also accompanied us even though the girl is in another classroom.
Apparently, the girl is similar to Sawako in that she has no friends, as well as having a severe anxiety disorder that limits her communication skills, leading her to a point of social isolation.
Needless to say, Sawako and the girl were able to get along quickly thanks to empathy, but the girl literally doesn't speak, so she seems like a beautiful doll with no personality.
In less than three hours, Umaru convinced the girl to join her anime group.
Marin loves cosplay and saw that the girl's beauty was very suitable for cosplay, so the convention for her to join her in future photo shoots.
The funny thing is that the girl doesn't understand what's going on and she's not even interested in anime and video games, she was just happy to have friends.
"Hey Listen! You pretend you're a cat mom collecting lonely kittens to protect them, but in reality you're a millionaire tricking idiot girls so you can fill their wombs with your cream! Someone call the FBI to arrest this actor hahahahaha!" – Navi and his obsession with rich people begins.
"Lately you make a lot of comments about high-level economic groups and pedophilia" - I smiled wryly.
Since I was a child I have been involved with criminals, psychopaths, dealers and the mafia, so I know these issues well, but honestly none of that matters to me. I even sold as toys and organ bags to the children who tried to annoy Umaru.
If people with money want to abuse children, it's not my problem. I'll only care if some idiot targets my family.
"Hey Listen! I got bored watching your pathetic school rom-com so I went to the movies and saw a comedy about kids being used as onaholes!" – Navi is laughing...
Only a jerk like him would think that's funny. In my opinion, it's just boring.
Tsubaki overheard our conversation and frowned as she scolded Navi. – "You cannot laugh at the suffering of innocent people, especially if they are children, they should not be exposed to tragic situations that ruin the innocence in their hearts"
Navi was silent for a few seconds and then nodded. - "It's true, lolis shouldn't fall into the hands of fat directors of children's series... All lolis should be inseminated by my dog while they scream yamete kimochi AHAHAHAHAHAHA...!"
Navi disappeared before Tsubaki angrily yelled at her.
"You see, I've lived most of my life in another country, but I understand that many people don't like to be called by their first name and prefer the last name..." – I spoke softly.
"..." - The girl wanted to say that she didn't care, although she actually felt embarrassed that I called her by her name, but at the same time she wanted that to show that she sees me as someone trustworthy .
"Even so" - I smiled innocently. – "Is it okay if I call your name?"
"....." – The girl blushed and nodded.
"Good" - I kept smiling as if I didn't realize the feelings that are growing in her heart. – "Whenever you need something, do not hesitate to look for me and I will help you, Shouko"
(Author's Note: Shouko Komi from Komi-san wa Komyushou Desu)
Shouko unconsciously smiled, though she looked down from her because she was too embarrassed.
In front of us, Umaru subtly gave me a thumbs up as she chatted with her friends. She had been attentive to my conversation with Shouko while she made sure that her friends didn't notice us.
I smiled wryly to myself. I must admit that I make a good team with that brat.
I continued talking with Shouko as we approached the restaurant where Umaru would see her friends.
There's still a little distance between us, but now she looks much more comfortable talking to me.
Although Umaru's friends are a few steps ahead of us, many idiots looked at me with jealousy since Shouko is extremely beautiful and it's clear that she's enjoying chatting with me. Well actually it's just me talking while she's barely able to nod.
Come to think of it, Shouko reminds me of someone...
"Hey Listen! Stop acting like a mysterious jerk! You already knew who she was from the first moment you saw her! It's too obvious that the stupid author just wants to add waifus because yes!"
....
Fine, I admit it.
I became interested in Shouko since I saw her together with Umaru since I know her family, or well, I know her mother...
Two years ago I had a little rage after I was nearly killed on a mission gone wrong.
I honestly don't even know how I survived, but someone made sure to save me from bleeding to death in an alley...
Ah, I feel like that will matter in the future, but right now it doesn't matter.
The point is that when I recovered from my injuries, I felt furious for failing that mission through my own carelessness.
To deal with the anger, I hunted down some perverts and petty criminals to beat them to death, then cremated the corpses and buried them in a playground.
After removing the evidence, I went to a bar and drowned myself in alcohol, then sought out some women to vent my frustration.
To my bad luck, the women I know were busy, so I ordered my subordinates to look for attractive women who were drunk in nearby bars.
That night I was with a couple of women and one of them was a married woman with an energetic attitude who had gone out with her husband to celebrate their anniversary, but they both had too many drinks, so I took the opportunity to talk to the drunk woman.
Legally, it was her who seduced me, although she did it as a joke since at that time I didn't use my Seiji identity, so she thought that I was just an innocent 15-year-old boy who walked into the bar by accident. She never imagined that the innocent prank would end with us in her bed while her husband slept in the street.
The next morning, the woman was horrified that she had brought another man to her bed while her husband was asleep in front of the train station.
After that, she begged me to leave her house and not tell anyone about what happened. She even offered me her family's savings, which I accepted, because well, at that time I cared more about money than about my own life.
The woman's husband and children did not know what happened. The husband thought he was very drunk and in Japan it is normal for office workers to sleep on the street, the irony is that he felt guilty for not accompanying his wife on their anniversary and he thought that she returned home because they argued, so he he was very apologetic to the woman.
Despite everything, the mistake of a night did not end there.
At that time I still had a grudge against my family, so I felt furious and jealous when I saw that the woman was a good mother who loved her children, so like a sociopath would do, I looked for a way to ruin that family.
Well, ruining families used to be one of my hobbies, so it was easy.
I didn't have to blackmail the woman into sleeping with me again, instead of something so boring, I used the painful feeling of guilt so that she was the one to seek me out.
I basically made her feel like she had manipulated and played me, which made her feel guilty for taking advantage of a naive teenager with family problems.
In this way, I maintained my relationship with her for several months until my already limited emotions continued to diminish from the constant assassination missions.
In the end, I gave up looking for her and lost contact with her.
The last time I saw her was a year ago and I had already forgotten about her, so seeing Shouko made me remember the past.
"Hey Listen! Your version of the past was a real Chad! Stop being a SIMP bitch and go back to being a cold, unfeeling Chad who uses women as worthless objects! Your emotional and sentimental bullshit disgusts me!" – Navi continues to prove that the view of male supremacy is stupid.
Well, it doesn't matter.
I like being able to feel love for my wives and I don't plan to go back to being the indifferent jerk I was in the past, but.... Hmm, Shuuko, I wonder how she's doing that cheerful woman...
(Author's Note: Shuuko Komi from Komi-san wa Komyushou Desu)
"Hey Listen! A Lolichad's favorite food is hot oyakodon!"
...Jokes aside, oyakodon is one of the few Japanese foods I like.
"Monika..." – I spoke internally as we arrived at the restaurant. – "Investigate a woman named Shuuko Komi"
"Okay, dear" – Monika replied happily. – "She is a married woman, do you want her husband to have an accident?"
"No, that will cause an unpleasant situation" – I smiled as we entered the maids' restaurant where the girl with a bad temper worked. – "That the husband receives a chemical castration, in addition, he looks for where he works and increases his stress levels to the point that he has burnout"
"Okay, I'll have someone put caffeine and nicotine in each of his meals" – Monika responded tenderly, she is an cute girl.
"This turned sinister..." – Nia spoke with a confused expression.
I don't think so, I'm just a madman looking for another man's wife.
When we entered the restaurant, a waitress was about to serve us, but the grumpy waitress rushed over to us when she saw my face.
I smiled wryly seeing the girl with a frown. - "What's happening? Is my lovely maid not happy to see me?"
Misaki looked angry, but there were many complex emotions mixed in her gaze.
(Author's Note: Misaki Ayuzawa from Kaichou wa Maid-Sama!)
"Welcome, dear customers, I'll take you to your table" – Misaki didn't respond to my mockery and she forced herself to smile kindly.
Oh, it seems like she wants to tell me a lot of things, but she doesn't know how to do it, so she will be my personal waitress for now.
I shrugged and pointed at Umaru. – "Good, by the way, the brat made a reservation or something like that"
Misaki showed no surprise and nodded as she pretended to smile tenderly, even though she's a bad actress. – "We have prepared a table for you, dear customers"
Umaru nodded with a smile. – "It was a good idea to choose this place, nothing is better than seeing an angry tsundere"
"...." – Misaki clenched her teeth, but managed to show a smile, although a vein on her forehead was marked by anger. – "P-Please follow me, dear customers"
Umaru had called the restaurant to reserve a private room where she could talk quietly with her friends.
Although this is a maid-themed cafeteria, it can also be considered a family restaurant and therefore no sexual services are provided. The reason why there are private rooms is because the issue of privacy is somewhat excessive in Japan, so there are spaces where customers can eat without having to hear and see other customers.
When we sat down, Shouko sat next to me since she felt more comfortable with me, after all, now I'm her most trusted friend.
While we waited, I ordered food with stupid names and was pleased to see Misaki put the cat ear headband back on.
I'm sure the blond boy is furious since I smiled at him when Misaki led us to the private table... This is relaxing.
