—What's wrong with Yami nee-san? I've been checking on Javier since he got down.
Sayaka, who was preparing to run, couldn't help but ask to see Yami's behavior.
—Yami Onee-chan, what are you doing?—.
Shio asked innocently.
—...—. [I look for wounds]
Yami replied, writing in her notebook. Shio was disoriented.
—Wounds!—.
—Nothing to worry about, Yami, I already told you that nothing happened, now let's run—.
Rinka was relieved, and Javier said it more to see Shio's reaction, who seemed relieved to know what Yami wrote said.
Leaving the incessant searches for injuries, Yami is the first to leave the lobby, followed by the girls and Asahi, and lastly, Javier, who straightened his shirt, which was half-rolled up, revealing normal-sized pecs.
—Asahi, Shio, what are you waiting for? Come out and we'll start the morning exercises.
—Yes!!—. x 2
[6:55 AM]
After finishing their run, everyone showered and began eating. Javier, observing Yuuna's slow eating behavior, asked her.
—Is there a problem? You know, you can talk to me about anything.
-I'm sorry…-.
Yuuna immediately apologized, causing everyone except Shio and Yami to stop eating.
—Mommy, why are you apologizing?—
—Y-yesterday… I said all those things, and today you are giving food to me and my children, together at the same table, with everyone—.
—That's not true, Mommy, he brought us, we're not going to eat for free either, I can work with you to earn our food—.
—Silence, Asahi—.
—P...—.
Falling silent at Javier's glare, Asahi returns to her seat, looking back at Yuuna.
"I brought you here because I need a hand cleaning this house. Besides, the past is the past. The wounds of the soul and heart aren't healed with words, but with the actions we take every day. So, so you don't have to worry, I'm planning to enroll Asahi and Shio in school after Golden Weed."
—W-wait, please, y-you don't have to, I can pay your tuition with the money you gave me!!.. Birds—.
-Silence-.
—...—.
Breaking down when money was mentioned, as she didn't know how much Javier would pay her, Yuuna lowered her head with a little strength in her voice.
—See, you can't do it, your passive attitude hasn't helped you so far, you're a girl who just waits for others to decide for you—.
—...—.
"I've seen your life. You didn't finish your compulsory high school education. Asahi has had little to no formal education, while Shio has spent her entire life so far within her own walls, never knowing any children her own age. I don't know if you're a good or bad mother under your circumstances... Therefore, I will take responsibility for ensuring that they are useful people in the future."
Without any objection from either side, Shio had stopped eating at the mention of his name, got down from his chair, and without anyone noticing, pulled Javier's shirt.
—Ojii-Nii-san, don't scold mommy, she hasn't done anything wrong—
Helpless under Shio's tender eyes, Javier smiles, turning his strictness into a loving one. Taking her by the armpits, Javier sits her on his lap and writes something in the air with his finger.
—Tell me, Shio, can you read this?—.
—...I don't know, what is Ojii-nii-San?—.
Giving Yuuna a quick glance, she lowered her head in shame because she knew what Javier meant.
—It's your name, Shio Kobe—.
—My name, really! Ojii-Nii-San, how do you do that, teach me and also how to write my name—.
—Of course, every afternoon from now on you will learn to write and add, I will teach you many things—.
—Uhh, but I just want to write my name—.
—Seriously, you don't want to write your mommy's name and your brother's or older sisters' names.
Shio, thoughtful, arms crossed, her little head moving from side to side. Not rushing Shio's decision, Javier looked around at everyone, who seemed anxious for Shio's answer.
—I understand, I will, I will write everyone's name and yours too Ojii-Nii-San—.
—Hehehe seriously, I'm looking forward to it, now go back to your seat and eat your breakfast—.
-I understand-.
Getting off, Shio runs to her seat, climbs in alone, and begins to eat quietly. Javier, who had looked at Yuuna, stared at her until he decided to speak.
—Thank you very much for your help—.
Yuuna said in a low voice.
Unable to lift her head for Javier, nor for Asahi who looked at her from the side without being able to help her.
—If there are no further objections, all right, and Yuuna, get ready to take classes this afternoon.
—Y-yes, but me too? I certainly didn't graduate, but I'm too old to study.
—Nonsense, just like love, there is no age to learn—.
Putting the matter to rest to study, Javier continued eating while listening to Rinka's conversation about shopping for clothes and supplies for Shio, Asahi, and Yuuna.
After finishing eating, Rinka, Akimiya and Javier had everything ready to go to school.
—Right, Yami, from last night's promise, it's in the same place he always just remembers: don't eat it all at once.
Uneasy after hearing Javier's words, Yami disappears seconds after Javier finishes speaking.
—Where did Yami Onee-chan go?—.
Rinka asked.
-Don't know-.
Holding hands with Asahi and Shio, Javier smiles at them.
—You two can tour the mansion at your leisure, Yuuna when I return this afternoon, we will go to your house to bring back any belongings you have—.
—I-I understand, thanks again for everything you're doing for us—.
Bowing Yuuna, Asahi and Shio also bow to Javier who is sitting in the car.
—Raise your heads, I'm not a good person, like the God of my creed, I did it only because it suited me, that's the only reason I helped you. Everything else is pointless.
—It doesn't matter, you already saved my children, the Gods are capricious, but yes, whim saved us... for that, thank you again—.
Feeling embarrassed under the admiration of Kobe's family, Javier just waved goodbye as he started the car to leave.
On the road, as the air brushed her cheeks, Rinka, who was in her usual seat, looked at Javier.
—How much of what you said was true?—.
—Everything, Rinka-chan, don't forget, I am the Hentai God. My creed is to be a pervert. Every cell in my body is meant to be a pervert who welcomes everything, but even I want a simple, happy romance.
With no regret or doubt in his voice, Javier knew what he was now and the consequences that were ingrained.
—And what do you plan to do? According to what I heard from Rinrin-chan, you want to find your legitimate wife, the one who will give birth to your child and with whom you can finally have sex.
Sayaka in her seat, and her usual haughty attitude, Javier just responded.
—Time will tell—.
-------
Arriving at the Institute, Javier opens the door and begins his now routine entrance.
—Good morning everyone, ladies and gentlemen alike!!!—.
—Hikari-chan, you look so beautiful this morning. I woke up feeling so good dreaming about you while we danced close together on the dance floor.
—Again, how many times have I told you not to greet me like that?
—Hikari-chan, how else could I greet you? You know I couldn't, my heart couldn't forgive him, therefore, Hikari-chan forgives this humble human who never stops dreaming about you every night.
—Stop being dramatic, shu, shu.
With flushed cheeks, without looking at his face, Hikari saw him off.
Javier, not bothering Hikari any longer, went to his seatmate.
—Nanami-chan, good morning, or does it seem like love keeps growing?—.
—Good morning, Javier, as I told you yesterday, I don't have anyone—.
—Come on, come on, don't be modest, a beautiful lady like you, that you can't capture his heart, that's inconceivable—.
At that moment, Javier takes Manami's hands and looks into her eyes.
—Come to me, I'll advise you on everything related to love. If you allow me, you'll see that boy will fall for you.
—J-Javier lets go of my hands—.
Nanami was embarrassed when she came into contact with a man, Hikari was at her side, who saw everything with a karate attack, which made Javier leave Nanami's hands.
—Don't get angry, Hikari-chan, I'm just giving you advice, I could never give you a reason to be jealous—.
—Who would be jealous of someone like you, hurry up and go to her seat and leave us alone!!—.
With veins popping out on Hikari's forehead, Javier left before continuing with his morning routine: greeting girls with a bold attitude, such as taking their hands and speaking softly in their ears, and greeting boys with just a fist bump.
—Good morning Sekai!!—.
—Hiaa, hey, don't hug me like that, get out—.
Pushing Javier off her body, Sekai fixes her hair.
—How can you treat a girl like that, Javier? I haven't given you the wings to do it?
—Okay, I won't plow it, but there will be more.
Showing remorse, Javier. Sekai, seeing him regret his actions, nods, and Javier quickly opens her mouth.
—Okay, let me—.
Letting go, as Sekai said, Javier fist bumped Makoto before going to his seat.
Sitting next to Setsuna, he sees her and she sees him.
—Why are you looking at me?—.
—Setsuna-san said the same, why are you looking at me, are you angry, or did something happen?—.
—Nothing… Why are you hugging me?—.
—You looked alone, that's why I hugged you—.
Hugging her from the side, Javier rests his head on Setsuna's small shoulder, who looks at him out of the corner of her eyes.
—Let me go—.
-Alright-.
—And why in a good mood?—.
—You're welcome, just seeing you brightens my day, that's bad—.
-Liar-.
With an expressionless face, Setsuna listens to music with her headphones, ignoring Javier.
-Jealous, I don't think so, or maybe I am. Well, we'll find out much later. Now that I see, Ryuto hasn't even missed another day.
Without thinking about anything else, Javier starts checking his phone, searching through several trending pages until he finds something interesting for everyone.
[United States creates the first exoskeleton armor]
[This is a new breakthrough in military technology, which can be explained in all areas]
[Exoskeleton: A New Tomorrow for the Great Country of the United States].
With portals attacking the new technology in military weaponry, Javier looked at the image of the exoskeleton for a moment, a quick thought coming to mind.
"Its frame is sturdy, the joints are out of the question, the interface is slow, how could I make delicate movements with that thing? The technology in that field is baby. Well, as long as it doesn't interfere with my life, they can say whatever they want."
Tim, Tum, Tim, Tam!
Everyone returned to their seats when the bell rang, the door opened, but it wasn't Professor Tenma who entered, but Ryuto with dark circles around his eyes.
Waving to Javier, Ryuto returns the greeting before sitting down in his seat, as the door opens again; this time Professor Tenma enters.
—I'll take attendance, speak up when called!—.
Spending the morning as usual, taking classes in history, natural sciences, chemistry, physics, and math. The most anticipated moment arrived: recess.
—Ryuto, what happened? Makoto called you several times yesterday, where have you been?
—I'm sorry, but my family... is a bit complicated, we had some matters... Uaaaa, urgent, that we already took care of, I had to stay up late, hahaha—.
—Dude, you look tired. Do you want a sports drink? At least it'll be useful for the next few hours. Or we can tell the professor you're sick and go to the infirmary.
Handing over an energy drink, Ryuto saw it and downed it.
—Thanks, Makoto, I've been nodding off all morning and barely understood the lecture. Javier, lend me your notes.
—Take them, you can give them back to me later—.
—Seriously, thanks, friend, but that won't stop you from doing yours.
—No, I already took a picture for homework, nothing to worry about.
-Thank you-.
—You're welcome, but I'll give it to you at the end of class. I don't think you'll be able to understand anything in your state.
—Mm, you're right.
—So I'll leave you, I'll go.
Javier said as he saw Ryuto fall asleep at his desk, leaving only Makoto with him.
—Where are you going, aren't you eating here?—
—I won't go to the library, one of the few quiet spots, see you later—.
Saying goodbye to Makoto, Javier takes his bento and heads out of the classroom, he stops and looks at Setsuna and Sekai who are eating together.
"Sekai, Setsuna-san."
—Mm, what's up, Javier?—.
Looking at Javier, Sekai continued eating her bento, Setsuna who also saw him for a moment before continuing to eat her bento.
—Here's to you, my lord sausage, with my basil mayonnaise sauce, it tastes delicious, open your mouth—.
—I'll eat it myself—.
—I'll feed you or nothing—.
With the octopus sausage in her chopsticks, Sekai looks at Javier who shows no sign of giving up, closes her eyes and eats it.
-Rich?-.
—Mm, delicious—.
Nodding at the victory over Sekai, he looks at Setsuna who doesn't comment anything, Javier takes another octopus sausage with a little mayonnaise and understands her.
—Eat—.
—I can eat by myself, leave it in my bento—.
—No, you fed me, now it's your turn—.
The two of them staring at each other in a staring contest, Javier drops his octopus sausage into Setsuna's bento with his head down, and walks away as the loser.
—Why didn't you eat, Setsuna? I was giving it to you.
—No, if I do, I'll fall into their game, like you.
—Maybe so, but... he's not a bad person.
—Good boy… too trusting.
—Hehe, you're right.
While the two were talking, Javier entered the library and looked at the teacher.
—Sensei, but what do you do to look more beautiful? You have to tell your secret.
—Jojojo, you and your gift of the gab will make me blush at my age.
—But what age do you say? You look like a young girl at 25.
—Okay, enough with the flattery, all you want to do is come in with your bento and eat while you read and wait, right?
—As expected of you, sensei, nothing escapes you.
—I've lived longer than you, knowing the outbursts of young people like you isn't hard to imagine, go on, but if someone comes in, put your bento away.
—Thank you, sensei—.
Getting along well from the first day Javier entered the library, in addition to having a good relationship with the sensei, his purpose of coming every day is to know the days she comes.
Sitting down in his usual seat where he could see the entrance, he opens the book he took before sitting down, with one hand reading and the other eating, not letting the aroma of food spread, in the library.
Waiting patiently, even after having eaten the bento and placed the container on his lap so that no one could see it, suddenly the door opens.
Looking out of the corner of his eyes, he makes me read normally and looks at the door to see who is coming in.
She was a student: she had long purple hair down to her waist, eyes of the same color, thin eyebrows, long eyelashes, fair skin, large breasts, a small waist, a soft butt, and long legs. As she walked, her hair swayed rhythmically, the beautiful girl stopping in front of the sensei. Her soft, feminine voice echoed throughout the library.
—Good morning, here is my student ID—.
—Yes… Katsura Kotonoha, you can take whichever book I want—.
-Thank you-.
Bowing slightly, he takes his badge back, walking towards Javier who is reading his book.
Walking past, Kotonoha takes a book from the shelf and begins to read quietly.
Javier, not knowing what to do, looks at the library teacher who signals for him to come forward and talk to her.
-If it were that easy, it wouldn't be difficult for me to approach her, ahhhhh. Unlike Sekai, she's easier to approach and talk to calmly. Kotonoha is contrary, she's shy, she's afraid of men, since she hasn't had much contact with them apart from her father and there's also the complex with her breasts, that every man stares at her. Ahhh, she's beautiful, unlike the anime and the game, she's much more beautiful and I don't know how to continue. Come on! Come on, you're the God, hentai that your balls don't shrink! -.
Javier, struggling to decide whether or not to go, had long since left his book to gaze into Kotonoha's eyes like those of a hopelessly besotted fool. Sensing his gaze, Kotonoha looked up at him and blushed, seeing her like this for the first time in her life, without lust or in her chest.
—Cough, cough cough!!—.
-Damn, who's the person coughing?-.
Javier was about to stop and complain about not letting him think, and he realized that his gaze met Kotonoha's.
—Ah... I-I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable... Goodbye.—
Barely rational in his mind, Javier quickly stands up, leaves the book where he found it, and leaves after saying goodbye.
—That brat didn't have the guts.
The librarian teacher muttered with disappointment.
-What was that?-.
Kotonoha said, lightly touching her chest as she remembered Javier's look.
"Your gaze is different from the others'. Why is that? I remember you've been here every time I come. Could it be that you like the library?"
Remaining thoughtful, Kotonoha, not recognizing any clear feelings for girls her age, went back to reading her book.
Elsewhere, in the men's bathroom, Javier washes his face and looks in the mirror.
—I want to die, what was that? I got shy. Am I not the hentai god? I can't feel shy. It must be the octopus sausage and basil mayonnaise that hurt me.
Not knowing what was wrong with him, Javier rubs water on his face before leaving the bathroom and going to his classroom.
--------
Rin, Tom, Tim, Tom!
After finishing listening to the classes, Javier separates and heads to Sekai.
—Sekai, are you coming or not?—
Understanding what Javier meant, Sekai takes her bag.
—I'm going, I think it will be interesting—.
Walking beside Sekai, Setsuna, who had been watching from a distance, fell silent at the two's approach.
—Javier, Sekai, where are you going together? Is it a date?—
Ryuto, who was disoriented from not sleeping, unconsciously asked them. Setsuna looked at him with joyful eyes and looked at Javier and Sekai, who had stopped at the entrance to the door.
—I'm going to hand in my form for the club I join. Sekai's going into the same one as me, so bye or we won't find Professor Tenma free.—
Setsuna, who knew the fate of the two, stood up and walked slowly to the staff room.
