Sun shines in the horizon of Tokyo as people in the crossing busily walked in different directions to reach their own destinations. There are many students crossing the scramble alongside with different people to reach their schools. Two teenagers wearing uniforms of the same school is walking side by side. A young girl and a young boy. The girl is a bit taller than the regular girl but still wears here delicate expression. Her Brown short hair only around her neck length was quite stunning to look at and she is definitely gorgeous. Accompanied with her slim body with curvaceous form, many will mistake her as a magazine model. If she tried to cosplay Luka Megurine of Vocaloid, she would immediately pass and many otakus would definitely bow down to her. This girl is none other than Riko Akusabe.

Walking by her side is a boy wearing the male uniform of Gashousou Academy. He has a lean and firm built but cannot be considered too masculine. In fact, he looked normal and his aura is as calm as the waters. His posture is normal but quite imposing. Though he paled in comparison to the girl beside him, he is not something to be trifled with in regards of face. He has a handsome face and could be considered 'virgin' face due to the fact that not a single pimple mark is present in his face. It means he never got a pimple at all. How I know about that? Of course, I know because I am describing myself!

I, Manato Tsukasa is a handsome fellow and I am proud to say that this face of mine never got a single pimple at all. If you think that I am simply narcissistic, well scram! Even though the author is writing my story, I am quite proud the way he explains my beautiful face!

Ahem, back to the topic. After eating breakfast, we made it quickly to the scramble so that we can arrive at school as quickly as possible. We still had a few minutes left before we are late but it is still not considered late as it was still the first day of school. A few kilometer walk and soon enough, a few fellow schoolmates are seen walking in the same direction with us and currently talking to their own friends about then long vacation.

I also felt it long but it was actually short enough if you consider how much time I need to play Alternate World. Also, I found it tiresome. We are already third year high school students now. Its quite troublesome since I will be sure that there are new people that I will be meeting with and also old acquaintances which I clearly remember to be a few people I interacted in the past.

I already knew that most of them are still in my class though some are no longer available for they might have gone to other school or they are already moved on the other classrooms. Anyway, its not my problem.

"Manato, are you alright? You are silent for quite a while," Riko looked at me with curiosity.

I smiled wryly at er due to my recent actions. If I was like myself in my timeline, I am too talkative than usual. But now, I no longer talk too much and looks like Riko noticed how silent I am.


"Ah, nothing. I am just thinking how hard the lessons now at school," I said an alibi immediately.

"Hmm, is that so? Well, why though? You are an intelligent person, why panic for that?" Riko grinned.

I scratched my head. Is this how my classmates saw me? An intelligent person? More like a nerd.

It didn't take us a few minutes when we arrived at the front gate of the Gashousou Academy. It still looked like the same. I looked at the students around. There are a few familiar faces that is clearly present in my timeline and a few who seemed to be out of place and I can't remember them being part of the school. Maybe due to my interference, more people have appeared that are no longer part of my past timeline. Anyway, I don't really mind. They seemed to be not that troublesome.

Before I can properly look in my surroundings, my sense seems to be enhanced further, as I felt someone behind me who is about to slap me at the back of my head. With quick succession, I dodge by pretending something fell and picking it up. The slap naturally missed and in the corner of my eyes, I saw that the person who was about to slap me was a bully of mine. Souji Takamine. A very masculine guy with a very intimidating face and a menacing look that many might want to smack his face to the ground if they got the chance.

Due to the strong swing he did and to the fact that he missed his target, he got outbalanced and he fell face first into the ground. In my opinion, he looked clumsy for tumbling just by that. I look in disdain at him. Is this really the bully that beat me up in my past timeline? Now that I looked at him, he looked so easy to smack down. Even my past self can beat up this guy!

"Nggh!" Souji groaned as he pull himself up from being slammed down.

Many onlookers grinned and some even are gossiping at this guy. I stood up and disregard him, Riko also noticed Souji and when she saw that this guy was obviously the bully who kept on bullying me in the past school days, she didn't bother looking at him any further and just waited for me to catch up.

In the end, he was humiliated in the public.

Entering the building, many students goes straight to the bulletin board. Riko was one of them but I stopped her from going.

"Huh? Why?" She looked at me with confusion.

"I already know out class. 3- B third floor west wing," I grinned.

"Nah, don't just spout random building here. We still don't know that!" Riko said and quickly dived on the crowd.

Many students are struggling in the bulletin board just to look for their names that are compiled and listed. I didn't bother looking, I already know where my classroom is. Riko still didn't believe me at first and she also struggled for a few minutes on the swarm of students trying to look for their names and when she managed to look, she had a baffled face when she returned to me.

"Are you a fortune teller?!" Riko looked at me with curiosity.

"What the f*ck? Do I look like those crude people in the streets carrying tarot cards and crystal balls saying they can see your fate?" I frowned.

"Then how did you know it beforehand?" she looked so bothered that I want to laugh.

"Hmph, I have gained the power of clairvoyance," I grinned at her.

"Tch, you dumb*ss, if you don't have any plans on telling me, then just say so," she trotted off, pouring..

In reality, I can learn that skill clairvoyance in the real world. The only thing is that you need to experience it in the game first then train for it. I didn't get to learn it in the past timeline as I have no chance to learn it or use it. Most players I partied with, learned that skill and usually the first people that will use it so why bother?

Climbing up the stairs was quite taxing as I remembered it correctly and not some kind of easy work that anyone can do easily even though students grow accustomed to it. The hallways are always rowdy during the first day of school and as usual, those students who are transferees are looking around the plates above the doors where the class section and the grade level are displayed.

Me and Riko already memorized the hallway of the school like the back of our hand so it will be pretty embarrassing to say that you got lost there even though you spent almost a year here every semester.

We arrived in front of the room, I nonchalantly opened the door and the students inside looked simultaneously to look whoever arrive and seeing it was me and Riko, they didn't bother us and continues on doing their normal chatter as usual. Though not all though.

I spotted Sakujo Tamabe and his friends looking at us. He really looked pisses seeing me but when I looked at their direction, he smiled wryly like he is hiding his real emotional. Also, there is another guy who quickly scamper towards us like some dog being called.

"Manato! President Riko! We are still classmate as always!" a boy who is much more handsome than me(Sorry Manato, you are not the most handsome person in this novel) even though I hate to admit it, rushed towards us.

"Janus, I thought you will return to America after the second year high school?" I asked him.

"Oh, that? Hahaha... it was cancelled, I cancelled it since I decided to try living in Japan without much reserves. Its.quite suffocating," Janus grinned.

Janus Mcgrey is a student of an American School and just transferred here last year. He should be considered an exchange student but after finding out that he loves the education here than back at his own country, he pleaded to stay here rather than return back to America after three months. And look who is here. This annoying Englishman is still here.

We three sit together in the back row near the window. Whenever there is a vacant one, we quickly vacate the seat so that no one will get it. But we clearly know that sooner or later, the changing arrangement will occur soon. I don't really have to change seat too soon though since my last name is letter T so I am around the back. Riko should be on the front due to her last name starting from letter A and Janus is around the Middle to the back. Looking around, the room, there are no new faces. In fact, all of them are the same classmates I have in the past. Its just like we just move to another classroom.

I checked my phone for updates about the game and I quickly saw that a week from now, the first patch of the game is going to be applied. The patch is still the same time and was not altered like how I was expecting. Though I wonder what patches are in there now since the last time I remembered is that they fixed a few bugs and added a few skills for Druid and Magic Knight. Also, I also remembered that they made a one day 100% Exp growth rate for the new players that will be going to enter the game for the first time.

As I was just pondering about that, I heard commotions in my classmates. The teacher have arrive and as usual, it was Mr. Sakano however, there are three people with him. I was stunned by the development of this. Is fate really mocking me? The two people should be the two guys I helped out before when they were ambushed by gangsters and the other one is the girl I kept on evading. The owner of the avatar, Harmless Sparrow, Rika Tsukinara!
