Chapter 25: Another Quest
The class was quite bored, Yuuki had learned the knowledge of high school curriculum in his past life. He was quite a diligent student, after all, he was confident he could get the first ranking in the whole grade.
Yuuki looked at Ranko who had been looking at him with a strange gaze.
"What's wrong?" Yuuki whispered.
"Yukana misunderstood our relationship," Ranko said with a tired sigh.
"Don't worry about that, she will forget it next week," Yuuki had read in somewhere that gossip disappeared within a week.
Ranko looked at him with a doubt expression wondering where Yuuki had heard such obvious crap.
"Don't mind it, it would become more complicated if you thinking too much," Ranko sighed but nodded at him.
They didn't continue to talk and listened to the lesson diligently.
It his time to go home, Yuuki wanted to go home and working on his manga.
"Yuuki, do you want to go home together?" Chiaki asked.
"Yeah, let's go home together," Yuuki nodded.
Miyuki didn't say anything but looked quite happy that Yuuki would go home together.
They walked to outside the class but stopped when they saw Uomi was in front of them.
"Do you need something, Uomi?" Yuuki asked.
"Yes, I need you, can I borrow him to student council?" Uomi looked at both Chiaki and Miyuki, but Yuuki interrupted her.
"Do we have to meet today?" Yuuki had promised to go home with Chiaki and Miyuki. He would feel bad if he had to break his promise twice to them.
"Yea, it's about a school," Uomi said while looking expressionless. It was hard to tell whether she was serious or not.
"Yuuki, you should go, we can go home together tomorrow," Chiaki said.
"Sorry about this, I'll make it up somehow." Both Miyuki and Chiaki nodded in response.
"Let's go, Uomi," Yuuki said.
Uomi nodded and both of them walked toward the student council room.
"You know, it's hard to believe that you'll get to know the most popular girl in the school on the day you transferred," Uomi said.
Her expression was hard to read, Yuuki couldn't tell whether Uomi was joking or stated a fact.
"Hmm, I think you got it wrong, I think Chiaki is taking care of me as a transfer student, we're not on that relationship, after all," Yuuki said in modesty.
"Well, it's okay if you're not in a relationship, I was afraid that you're in a relationship with her," Uomi said.
"Hoo? Why is that?" Yuuki was intrigued.
"Because, we're engaged to each other," Uomi dropped a bomb.
Yuuki gawked and his expression was funny. He had never expected the girl in front of her would be his fiancee.
"Hey? Rea.." Yuuki wanted to ask but Uomi took her phone and took his picture who was gawking.
"Hmm, nice expression, I'll make it become my photo profile," Uomi said with a smirk.
Yuuki massaged his temple when he saw Uomi teasing him.
"Sigh, did you call me only to tease me? If it like that, I'll go home." Yuuki didn't want to waste his time.
"No, there is something important." Yuuki took a deep breath.
"Let me listen then," Yuuki decided to follow her.
"You're not fun!" Uomi said.
"I'll be fun if you show me some of your expression," Yuuki refuted.
"Hoo, do you want to see me in ahegao?" Uomi made a double peace posed.
"Don't do that what if someone misunderstands me as someone who has a strange fetish?" Yuuki hurriedly put her hand down.
"Hmph, you're really not fun," Uomi said.
"I'm fun with that, so tell me? What's about school?" Yuuki asked.
Uomi nodded and decided to get serious.
"Do you know that our school is in danger?" Uomi said.
"Danger? What kind?" Yuuki titled his head.
"There is a reduced amount of students who entered our school this year." Uomi showed him statistics.
Yuuki frowned when he saw this.
"This is terrible," Yuuki had known that Japan had a decreased birth rate in their country, but he had never thought it would affect his school like this. There was a 20% decreasing amount of students entered this school. He thought it would need another 5 years before this school was closed for good.
"I don't want my alma mater will become an abandoned building," Uomi said, "Can you help me, Yuuki?" She sounded very sincere to ask his help.
Yuuki wanted to refuse her, but suddenly a quest appeared on his head.
[Main Quest: Save the school from closing down.]
[Reward: System lottery 3x]
[System tips - It'll be bad if your alma mater will close down. You need to save your school together with the student council. You need to help the lonely student council president to realize her dream.]
Yuuki who looked at his quest knew that he had to accept her request.
'I have a system who am I afraid of?' Yuuki though.
"Sure, I'll help you to do it," Yuuki said with full of conviction.
"Thank you," Uomi said.
"But, do you have an idea to save the school?" Yuuki asked.
"Hmm, first, we need a lot of attention from media or everyone," Uomi said.
"That's good, but how can we do it?" Yuuki titled his head.
"No problem, I have an idea!" Uomi took something from her bag and showed it to him.
"Hmm, a 'Game Making Tournaments' in entire Japan, that's a great idea," Yuuki had to admit her idea was good to enter this kind of competition.
"So? Who gonna make the game?" Yuuki thought there was game making club.
Yuuki was waiting for her answer until Uoimi pointing her finger at him.
"You," Uomi said.
"Hmm?" Yuuki was stupefied.
