It Became a Time-Stop Slit-Eye

chapter 4



4. Hmmm, it was almost dangerous.

After thinking for a while, I smiled kindly and held out my hand.

“Ahahahaha, my name is Shiki Ichimaru. I hope to go along well.”

“Yes, take care of me too!”

Similarly, Kenichi Kitagawa holds his hand with a kind face.

By the way, the power transmitted through the mouthpiece is quite strong, so it is naturally strong bone.

From a game standpoint, is it a buff for the main character?

‘Still, I can easily subdue him now.’

No matter how much the main character is, he is just a civilian in good health before the episode begins.

On the other hand, this side already has the ability to manipulate time in a superhuman body.

It only takes an instant to kill him, and the same goes for subduing him without any injuries and taking his necklace.

Now, it is possible to rob the necklace and make it bloom with my demonic sword, not the main character’s.

A demonic sword that negates all abilities.

I know that I have seen hundreds of bed endings.

The sword’s ability to nullify anything once it touches it, whether it’s the high-ranking magic of a great wizard or the tricks of a unique entity among youkai.

At first glance, it seems like that’s all there is to it…… Yes, in fact, that is the only ability.

That’s why I’ve only been able to beat half of the episode, even though I’ve been doomed hundreds of times.

‘Normally, there is a corner that can be destroyed with passion or an overwhelming main character’s buff… ….’

In this dog sh*t game that failed to adjust the difficulty level, ‘Jongmalupko’, more and more guys with grotesque body specs and abilities come out later.

There are monsters who overwhelm you with their body specs, regardless of whether you chew on their abilities, and there are monsters who spread their abilities in all directions to the extent that they can’t be destroyed.

The main character’s sword wasn’t a bad weapon, but it wasn’t enough to save the world.

Yes, if only that was the case.

‘But the story is different if it’s a secondary weapon.’

Nullify all abilities.

If used as an auxiliary tool rather than as a main weapon to deal with enemies, it would be quite effective in blocking unexpected variables.

Above all, it’s just a simple cross-shaped necklace now, but if it blooms, it’ll become a demonic sword with a very sleek design.

“…… It was very difficult to give up because of that.”

“Huh? What?”

“No, nothing.”

After brushing off my brief regret, I shook Kenichi’s hand with a hearty smile again.

It would certainly be immoral and exhilarating to steal the main character’s sword, but I’m not going to use twin swords, and it’s actually an inefficient option.

Because I can solve everything with my abilities against normal enemies anyway.

Variable blocking and design are important parts, but in the end, if you rarely use them, their meaning fades.

Moreover, Kenichi Kitagawa, the main character of our game, couldn’t even wake up without a sword.

Just a strong civilian.

If it was another game, it would have been an overwhelming alpha male, but it’s just a pity to be born as the main character of a dog poop unplayed poem.

‘…… After using hundreds of copies, I’ve grown fond of them. It’s a bit pitiful.’

Whether I use it or that guy uses it, if the effect is the same, let’s just let this guy use it.

If you go later anyway, there will come a situation where you have to solve it simultaneously using your colleagues.

Rather than completely discarding it, I’d rather grow it and take it with me as a shuttle to nullify its abilities.

‘From now on, you are my sword shuttle No. 1.’

Having come to that conclusion, I nodded my head generously.

“Looks like we’ll be good friends.”

“Yes, let’s get along well in the future!”

Kenichi is very happy to see me, even though we have never met, and Hotaru is somewhat hesitant next to him.

I spent a while chatting with them in the back seat.

It was a temporary assignment, but there was nothing wrong with getting close quickly.

After that, after some time passed, a homeroom teacher who looked like a yakuza came in.

Even if it wasn’t so, he made a grim face and spoke in a thick voice.

“Nice to meet you. I am Yamamoto Baki, who will be the A class teacher for the next year. He’s also the grade manager, so if you have any problems, come to the office and tell them.”

Maybe it’s a school where monsters come out later, the teacher also looks like a slaughter tank.

After the brief self-introduction of the homeroom teacher, the first event of the class began.

“Come forward one by one and cast lots.”

It was an official class assignment. There was a high possibility that this would also change later depending on the taste of the students and homeroom teachers, but for the time being, the results will be the same.

I wondered if I was going to play tricks for a while, so I just calmly went forward and cast lots.

“Hmm, number 25.”

Seats are filled from the front of the classroom in order of numbers, but luckily the next number was taken.

That’s next to the window, in the back seat.

I don’t know who my partner will be, but I think I picked a decent number.

‘I’m lucky.’

But that thought didn’t last long.

“Oh, Shiki! This time the seats have been changed! Please take care of me again!”

“Thank you… No, please take care of me too.”

“Ohoho, thank you very much.”

The pitiful protagonist, Kenichi Kitagawa, and Hotaru Ichinose, the fire priestess, were assigned the seats right in front of them.

What is it? I was puzzled at the surprisingly beautiful arrangement of the seats, but I greeted them happily.

Even though it’s not as much as a partner, we’ll talk as often as we’re next door.

Yeah, it was worth considering that I had been very lucky up to this point, but the next problem was.

Soon, the appointed partner came up to me with a beautiful smile and greeted me.

My partner was a woman with light pink hair and big breasts.

The ominous shimmering eyes looked directly at me.

“Hello, I am Sawamura Sento. Will you take good care of me while we’re partners?”

“Whoa.”

I noticed how things were going, facing the pink-haired woman sitting next to her.

‘This guy did it.’

Ancient weapon, Sawamura Sento.

A set of spells governing human ‘wish’.

At the same time as the main heroine, she could become the boss of the episode depending on the turning point.

She has the eye smile of a woman who is beautiful to anyone who sees it, but I realized it intuitively.

A heartless, contrived laugh.

Maybe it’s because I have superhuman senses, or maybe it’s because they’re similar.

Anyway, what is certain is that she deliberately approached me first.

Her eyes only met once, but thinking about why, she said to her with a gruff expression, as if she was wearing her mask as always.

“Ahahahaha, thank you in the future! My mate who came to me like fate.”

It seems like a pink-haired yandere got stuck completely unintentionally……

‘I rather like it.’

I was a man who loved obsession.

***

Perhaps it was the first day of admission, all classes, from Korean (i.E., Japanese) to math, science, and history, took place after assembly time.

Introduction of teachers and students in each subject and brief guidance on how classes will be held in the future.

The so-called orientation.

As a special first day of class, it is time to take a break.

To be honest, it was very good news for me, who didn’t come to school to study.

‘I wish it was like this every day.’

I know it’s an undeserved dream, but I can still dream at least.

After the morning class in a good mood, I ate lunch with Kenichi and Hotaru, who were sitting in the front row.

As expected, it’s a Japanese high school in the game, so there’s no such thing as a cafeteria, and all are packed lunches.

Sawamura Sento, who approached as if he was going to do something, had been listening to classes all morning, and then suddenly disappeared somewhere as soon as lunchtime came.

“Kenichi, I brought your favorite special egg rolls and umeboshi (pickled plum) rice balls.”

“Oh, thank you. Your mother’s food is always delicious.”

The main character Kenichi Kitagawa and the fire priestess Hotaru Ichinose exchanged food as if they were childhood friends.

Compared to Kenichi, who only had meat dumplings, Hotaru, a balanced diet, seemed to be a loss, but she handed out the food casually.

“…… Hey, Ichimaru-kun, would you like to share?”

Oh my God, he also talked to me as if he felt sorry for me for not taking anything out of the desk yet.

Even that easy-going Hotaru Ichinose is so cautious!

How pitiful I am.

“Share, la…… That’s good!”

My pride was hurt for no reason, so I quickly shrugged my shoulders and took out my treasured lunchbox from my bag.

Kwaang—!

It was the appearance of a three-tiered lunch box made of mother-of-pearl lacquer on the jet-black exterior—the highest grade.

The first layer is rice balls and various side dishes, the second layer is meat, and the third layer is fruit for snacks.

“…… Wow.”

“…… Hey, is this a lunch box?”

Is this the first time I’ve seen such a luxurious lunch box?

Kenichi and Hotaru looked at me and the lunch box with envy in their eyes.

I took out a barrel of soup and spoke to them in a relaxed manner.

“hahahaha, the landlord packed me a lunch box, but he has really big hands. It seems like it would be too much for me to do alone… , Would you like to have a drink together?”

“Is that okay?!”

“Wow! Thank you for this food!”

Adolescents who are in the midst of growing up jumped at super-luxurious lunchboxes.

‘Everything goes according to plan.’

It was possible to bring a packed lunch all year round, as long as I could afford something to eat.

Okay, I’ll feed you until you’re a pig.

After eating with them with a happy heart, I went out of the classroom to digest my food.

“Originally, searching before hunting is essential.”

While walking around leisurely while muttering that, I saw people going down the stairs in front of me.

“Eris-sama! I have a good look!”

“I brought well-brewed black tea!”

“Cookies from all restaurants… !”

It was a blonde kid and a rogue.

Her appearance, with Eris Betelgeuse leading her down her steps, her followers following her.

It’s true that she’s pretty like a doll, but I didn’t quite understand why she was so crazy about it.

‘Well, it’s my preference.’

I was about to pass through the corridor with my head tilted, when I suddenly noticed something strange.

One of the female students who was following Eris, watching only the back of her head, tripped on her steps.

Unsurprisingly, the girl’s balance was disturbed.

Lean forward as it is.

“…… Uh?”

A female student with a shocked expression on her face.

Eris and the thugs began to turn their heads when her body was half-tilted.

By the time they checked, it was obvious that the situation had already ended.

Although Eris Betelgeuse always spreads a barrier and force field around her, she was slow to respond to the misfortunes of others.

The female student was destined to roll down her stairs.

“I can’t help it.”

I didn’t want to see blood after eating, so I pulled out the small sword hidden in my sleeve.

I could have just run, but then I had to move my feet too violently.

The moment the hidden dagger was revealed to the world.

─The passage of time slowed down.

The girl who suddenly fell down the stairs, and the Eris Betelgeuse who was turning her head.

Everyone’s movements were seen in slow motion.

Even the dust floating in the air is swimming infinitely close to stillness.

I walked leisurely down the hallway and carefully hugged a female student who was collapsing on the stairs.

Only then did the flow of time return.

Hooung—! The wind blew along the path I had walked, and when she came to her senses, the girl in my arms looked up at me with a bewildered expression.

She must have understood the situation right away, and her face turned red.

“Hmm, that must have been dangerous.”

I greeted her, smiling like her gentleman as usual.

“Are you feeling well?”

“…… Yes.”

Fortunately, there seems to be nothing wrong.

Carefully letting go of the female student who answered shyly, I raised her head.

“…… You.”

Eris Betelgeuse looked at me with a shocked expression.
