บท 10: Ch 10: Tests and Boredom…
Phew… A lot has happened yesterday, my first day of school. From knowing more about this world I'm in to the system I recently received.
Not to mention those skills I really wanted to test out for a while.
The only issue is that I had this thought that exhausting myself to the limit training, with my family knowing won't work out. Which is why I often than not, don't train too much or without them being aware. No more holding back, I supposed.
I'm going to train regardless of how much strain I put myself to. As this won't be the only world I'll be visiting, a greater foundation will give me a good starting point for when I gradually retain my current power, meaning the earlier, the better, and the stronger I get, the better it will be for me.
So, with that in mind, I want to start training myself to the limit starting today. Human limitations don't bound me like it used to.
Let's leave that thought later. After all, it's another day of school.
So with that said my daily routine has to change to a stricter, more strenuous training.
I always wake up around 2 hours daily before school starts.
I mean.
"The early bird get the worm"
I am a believer of this saying. As time awaits no one.
I used to train discreetly in the bathroom where there is low risk of me being found training, but now that I'll be more tough on myself. I cannot train like I used to. And those workouts are not necessarily pushing me to the limit.
Let's see, I don't have a proper clue on how I can train every part of my body consistently, but that Saitama training is looking mighty-fine of a workout. So, in the mornings, I'll do his 10 kilometer runs daily.
Which should work to train myself without them knowing too much. As I'll be running outside.
As for after school or my afternoon workouts. There is a risk that Kazuki will walk in my room. I really hate the confined bathrooms, not to mention that is a place to relieve myself not really for working. So no more of that. But I'll be doing the rest of his regiment of 100 push-ups, 100 squats, and 100 sit-ups in the premise of my own room by then. Hmm—let's add a few more workouts.
Let's see… 100 jumping jacks. And once my body gets adapted to this intensity, move on to—200.
Man, just thinking about these numbers got me sweating. I'm not too into numbers before reincarnation, nor do I focused too much in improving my body. At most I go for the bare-minimum of being considered fit and having a lot of energy to fuel my day.
Then comes the meals, well that shouldn't be an issue, but I need to be careful I train for more compact muscles like a swimmer's body rather than that of a bulky muscle-builder.
Too many things to think about, huh…
Well, can't waste too much time thinking about this. I'll just run to my limit until time is up.
An hour passes by gradually. As a small figure can be seen in a hump-like posture taking in deep breaths.
He was had a handsome face, as if it was sculpted to be the perfect-human. A child of god.
And everyone who passes by him can't help but take a look. The girls stunned. And the guys unable to fathom why such a few existed. Deep within they are jealous and shocked.
"Hahh.. hah… hahh.."
That was a tough one, but this isn't enough.
As I drank a water bottles I carried with me, I go to a bench trying to rest a bit.
A few minutes in, I have to start running back, so that means… another 10 kilometers huh…
As much as I hate this, it's still a good way to actually push myself to the limit. School starts in an hour and 30 minutes. It took me one hour to reach this place. And I also have to take a shower and breakfast after that. So it's a challenge—with a grin on my absurdly handsome face, I ready myself up, knowing I'm pushed with time.
Yosh. As I stretched myself preparing to make my last run back. I can't help but smile. Who would have thought, that besides my hobbies before reincarnation all of this can be fun huh…
Three—two—one. Go!
"One. Two. One. Two. One. Two. Hahh… One…"
Somewhere in the neighborhood a voice can be heard repeating numbers. An exceptionally handsome young boy can be seen running intensely. As sweat filled his body to the brim, it only seemed to enhance his appearance with his eyes shining with a youthful glow. As the people who passes by him staring at him as he ran with big, nimble strides that seems unreal for his small body. Watching as he eventually disappears from their sight in the distance
As an hour eventually passes by.
He stops by a house.
Phew… that was the first time I really pushed myself. I can't even stand straight.
"Hahah… Hahh…"
As I walk by the door of my house, I panted heavily at my tough work out as I open the door with the key.
And then, of course came upon my sister, Kazuki who greeted me from there.
"Where were you Hiroto?"
She was certainly angry at me, interrogating where I went.
"Oh! Not much. I just went for a run.. hah.. Hahh—"
Out of breath I told her. She went silent after hearing this.
"Hmm— I see"
Accepting my answer she just nodded.
"Well, breakfast is almost ready, so let's eat"
She continued as she went her way to me and kissed me. After a second of silence, she grabbed my hand going to the dinner table. As I took my seat, my mother delivering food on the table. And my father sitting, waiting for food.
A few minutes passes by and we ate silently. Finishing up quickly, I drop my plate by the sink. And head upstairs to take a shower.
As the sound of water comes rushing out, drenching myself with water, and then applying proper conditioner and using soap.
Hmm—Cold-water should help me wake up according to some sources, so let's also start doing that It also test my tolerance.
As I turn the water completely cold, it felt to say, hard to stay in place, but knowing my [ Adaptable Body ] I stay in the spot trying to control my breathing as advised, trying to overcome this temperature.
It only took a minute, but the formerly unbearable temperature, became easy, as if it doesn't feel as bothering as it was before.
This is nice. Adaptable Body—huh. For some reason I felt even more energized than before. That exhausting training earlier, doesn't even trouble me as much as it did earlier.
So everything that I'm put to, seems to be quite easy to adapt to.
Making improvements is easy, hmm—
I smile with content at the usefulness of this innate ability.
Well, I got 10 minutes left before I'm late, so I guess I should get going.
Yawn~
In the end no matter how adaptable I am it really takes some time I guess. Some sleep should speed up my recovery and how fast I adapt. So I guess I'll be sleeping in class today huh…
Yosh. Let's go.

…
In a condominium-like building housing many residences, a cute-young girl can be seen holding her pillow in bed.
"Heheh—Hiro—to"
As I tossed around in my bed with the light outside the window reaching in.
"Is this love?"
I mutter as I reached for my heart.
"It's not bitter… it's completely different with my aunt"
And upon the mentioning of my aunt, the bright outlook was completely gone. Only a resentful and scornful face appeared in my face. As my eyes glowed a dark-red.
"It's different with Hiroto. It's sweet. It's warm. It's… love"
And then as if a switch was flipped, at the mentioning of a person I absolutely adored. Like a girl-in-love called out the name of her crush—her love.
"Ah!—Hiroto"
As I curled up even further in my bed.
"I like you…"
I said with an infatuated look.
"We'll meet again today, tomorrow, and… everyday… forever"
I can't wait anymore. I'm going to school early to see him.
After this thought, the girl can be seen walking out of her room cheerfully, as she comes to eat breakfast with her aunt silently.
Upon finishing her meal, leaves to take a shower, and heads to the front door.
Hmm—now that I mentioned it… there was a person following us yesterday—Don't tell me she is also interested in Hiroto-kun. Just like our teacher too… that old-hag…

With that thought, Satou's crimson-red eyes radiated intensely at the thought of someone trying to get close to the person she loves.

(POV Change Hiroto Kazami)
…
Knowing that school will be extremely boring, I lay my head down, not caring about the people around me. Although I did talk to Satou for a bit and then laid my head down after the teacher got here.
From there on it was the same old cliche you'd find in anime or novels, my teacher Akane Minagawa reached out to wake me up and answer the question on the board.
It was relatively simple so it only took a glance and a few seconds writing my answers. And then headed to my desk for another sleep.
Before I did though she tried asking me not to do that. Not that I cared about her or the class, so I just ignored her. She sighed at my lack of care of her words.
The other were in awe of how I who was clearly sleeping can answer that question simply and on the spot.
After that she went back to teaching. As the girls were fondly looking over at me sleeping. And they kept staring for quite literally most of the class, I could sense it.
"Hahh…"
I'm so f*cking bored… I forgot how bland school is. Sleep might actually be the only way to relieve my time here.
Closing my eyes. I felt comfortable, the lesson ongoing sound like lullabies, the warm light seeping in put me at ease. I could do this all day.
All of this just reminds me of back then before reincarnation huh…
Maybe I truly was broken. I had no parents, never experienced love and attention, nor did I sought for one like peers of my age would have and should have. As being an orphan survival is my first priority. Everyday was monotonous as it can get. A repeat of the day before. From school to my part-time job to help me get through the day.
The only light I ever found in that tasteless, colorless world is my hobbies. Not many were worth my attention or interest. I had no great ambition, only survival and my hobbies in my mind. I live for nobody, but myself. I keep moving just for my hobbies. And living for the sake of living.
Sure, this may seem edgy but it's true. A dull and mundane world is the one I lived in. After all when nothing seems worth living for, what exactly should you keep living for. What is worth me being here, I thought. Then upon coming to the world that is my hobbies, did everything come to life.
Ever since I was a kid I always had the thought that everything was bland, tasteless, and monotonous. There was nothing to look forward to, I felt nothing, not a single worth of me living that I found.
Everyday was just a repeat of the the day before unable to tell the differences between one-another. And trying to find a meaning in such a world called reality.
I came upon the world of my hobbies, anime's, mangas, and later on hentai. The only light I ever saw in my life. It started with fascination, then addiction, and that was the time that my crumbling world that is reality started to restore.
The once tasteless world became one that I looked forward to. In the end from the bottom of my heart I knew both worlds were separate. And yet existed at the same time. It just so happens we live in reality and dream of a fictional fantasy.
Which was why knowing that although I often indulged in my hobbies yet kept making strides in reality.
By maintaining a certain grade average to having a healthy lifestyle.
Above all of that, I hate losing the most if the average person can live through it, why can't I.
Broken huh…

(Authors Note:
A very major issue I'm having as of recent, writers block has been growing in on me, although I had some plans for how the story will develop. It will most likely be delayed in terms of updating schedule. As I'm really feeling out of it, low-energy. Partly it's due to me not thinking that I can execute the story like I planned out in my head. It just feels bland, from things like my vocabulary to word-choice-wise, I have trouble finding the right terms to layout that story I had in mind. So, updates are definitely going to be inconsistent. But I'll also add in some suggestion page in the auxiliary volume that way if you guys have any suggestions you can leave a note for certain aspects like the world he will visit in the future or items you guys might want to be featured in the lottery. )
