Chapter 168: Isao will change (Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei)
"The reason why I have slept with Freya and Demeter isn't because I want to educate them!
"It's because I feel lustful toward them, and I want to sleep with them!
"I am not the good guy that I have thought to be! I am a bastard who wants to sleep with all beautiful women!
"I have betrayed the trust of my family! I am trash!"
On the sunny and hot beach, Isao shouted with all of his might, telling all the lies he had used to accommodate all the evil things he had done in the world of Danmachi. He was like a sinner who confessed his sin inside the confessional.
Even though he had said that he had done everything as a good person and cursed those goddesses for tempting him, he knew that if he could control himself better and not follow his lust, then everything would be good.
Yet, he couldn't.
He tried to mask everything with "good," yet what he did was disgusting.
Why did he become like this?!
As he shouted, confessing all of his lies in front of the sea, Isao felt better and ready to face himself. He wasn't as good a guy as he thought he was, but even so, he never gave up on becoming one.
As for his mistakes in sleeping with Freya, this was a force majeure.
It was like how an apple fell to the ground to gravity, or a disaster would destroy many things; sleeping with Freya was something that was out of control, something that couldn't be changed no matter what.
As they happened to be his type.
Yet, as someone who tried to become a good person, he knew that he couldn't do this any longer.
He couldn't stop Freya's happiness, and he knew that Freya had to be someone who could take care of herself. Instead of him, there were many men who would take care of Freya dearly.
While he felt reluctant to let go of Freya, he decided to be mature and let her go.
It was like the case with Miku Yuuki in the world of the "High School of the Dead."
Isao never touched Miku when she was single, but when she had a boyfriend who could take care of her dearly, he knew that there was no need for him to worry about anything, so he decided to comfort her when she needed in him as he knew that it wasn't easy to live in a world filled with zombies.
Like Miku, Isao should treat Freya similarly.
At this moment, he decided to be satisfied with just Hephaestus and Demeter.
There were no more bad guys!
"I will control my lower body better!"
As Isao shouted his vow to the sky and ocean, he believed that he could do it!
If he had an urge, he should go back to the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba" and "Highschool of the Dead."
Still, as he released all of his frustrations, he looked at the world around him.
Yup, once again, he was in another world, but he wasn't in the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba," "Highschool of the Dead," or "Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi." It was a new world that he had never been to.
"Where is this?"
Nevertheless, Isao felt that this world was quite familiar.
"Is it Japan?"
Still, he was glad that he was teleported to an empty beach without anyone, but he was also helpless as he couldn't see people, which could help him understand the world's situation by replicating their DNA.
After watching the ocean for a while, he knew that he could control the birds and the fish, but he didn't intend to replicate their DNA to understand the situation. Instead, he thought for a while and changed his clothes into something suitable for the beach.
If it was before, he might have been troubled, but it was different now, especially when he had the skill of Mukoda, which gave him the ability to buy anything through an online shopping skill.
After buying several clothes, Isao quickly changed into a simple white shirt, light blue shorts, and sandals.
Changing his clothes, he walked around the beach curiously, trying to understand the situation of this world through geography. Unfortunately, he could see nothing, but for one thing, he knew that he wasn't in the past anymore, like how in the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba," "Danmachi," or "Tondemo Skill."
"Is it like the world of High School of the Dead?"
Isao looked around, but it seemed that it wasn't the case.
"It seems the world is more advanced. Is it in the future?"
Isao wasn't sure, but as he walked, he saw a lot of people who wanted to surround a boy and a girl.
The girl was sleeping, but the boy faced all of those people calmly.
"Fifty people?"
Isao's lips twitched, wondering how an adult could gang up on a boy with so many of the numbers. Even if he was a little far away, he could hear the conflict between them was about to break out.
"Oi!"
As his voice was loud, it naturally attracted all of them.
"Don't gang up on a kid."
Even if he was a bastard, he never bullied the weak.
A group of fifty adults wanted to beat up a little boy, and at the same time, he could also see that their eyes seemed to be attracted to the girl who was protected by the boy.
Isao sighed, feeling helpless and wondering why one couldn't have a normal taste in a woman.
At the same time, he realized that his taste in a mature woman was much healthier than those of other people.
"Who the hell are you?!"
"If you don't want to be hurt, just stay there!"
"Don't fuck with us!"
Unlike the boy, all of them could feel the aura of extraordinary from Isao, so they hesitated and tried to scare Isao verbally. Moreover, similar to the girl, Isao's appearance seemed to be on the same level or even above.
The boy was also in a daze when he saw Isao for the first time.
Yet, Isao didn't care about their anger and just beat all of them.
"Wha—!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As Isao beat all of them, he replicated their DNA and understood that he was in Okinawa, and at that moment, it was August 2092. Unfortunately, he couldn't learn anything more as those guys were stupid and never learned, so the information he could get was limited.
Or rather, except for location and time, he hardly learned anything.
Still, as Isao beat up all of the fifty adults with ease, the boy was stunned in a place and looked at him in a daze.
In less than a minute, all of those people were beaten by Isao.
"You okay, boy?"
However, the boy didn't answer him and seemed to be tense, watching him cautiously.
Isao only smiled and flicked this boy's forehead.
Bang!
The boy subconsciously held his forehead in pain; then, he felt his hair rubbed by this young man.
"Didn't your parents teach you manners and what to do when someone helps you?"
Only Isao felt regret when he said those words, especially when he saw the name of the boy through his ability to replicate someone's DNA.
[You have acquired Shiba Tatsuya's DNA.]
[Do you want to absorb it?]
"....."
'Is this the world of Mahouka?'
Isao was at a loss for words.
