When the hodgepodge world of anime meets the shadow king

My name is Kitahara Akira, I’m 16 years old, and I live in an apartment in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. I’m unmarried and currently a freshman at Sobu High School.

I don't smoke or drink, and I only play games lightly. I go to bed before 10 p.m. every night, and after falling asleep, I train with Yegrit for several hours in my dreams. I never tire my body, and even Yegrit praises me for my self-discipline.

By the way, I'm a time traveler. I died in a fire in my previous life, maybe? Then I was reincarnated into this anime world and awakened the system during the summer vacation of my junior high school graduation a few months ago. My current dream is to marry a beautiful 2D girl.

"Ah~" Kitahara Xiao yawned on the way to school, then lowered his head slightly with a distracted look.

Name: Kitahara Akira

Gender: Wal-Mart shopping bag (optional)

Abilities: Swordsmanship, Shadow, Browser Mastery

Special items: Yegrit (missing) 3D mobile phone

Number of draws remaining: 2

"Tsk, it's still so simple, there's not even a shopping mall or anything. This system is an assembly line product!" Kitahara Xiao curled his lips

Kitahara Xiao was excited for a long time when the system was activated, but after the system gave a big gift package for novices, it became a simple panel and remained silent.

Even his swordsmanship and shadow abilities were taught by Yegrit!

Ever since he was reborn in Japan with his memories and transferred to a one-year-old baby in the hospital fifteen years ago and was adopted by his original uncle, he thought he was reborn in Japan. It was not until he saw the Shinomiya family and the Yukinoshita family in Chiba on the news that he realized it was the world of the anime.

"It's fine to be a copycat and have a love story in the second dimension." He thought so at the time, but the system that suddenly awakened during the summer vacation after graduating from junior high school shattered his dream of writing a novel.

Helplessly, under the training of the "grandfather" given by a certain system, Kitahara Xiao became a hero out of interest.

Although it was only last night that I had my first actual combat experience.

"Oh, yes, Yegrit." Kitahara Akira thought of something.

"In" a vigorous voice sounded in Kitahara Xiao's mind

"Thanks to you last night, I asked you to take action in the first actual combat. I am still too weak~" Kitahara Akira sighed

"King, there is no need to favor one over the other. You just lack practical experience."

"I've already told you, don't call me the king. I'm not Cheng Xiaoyu, and I don't deserve this title." Kitahara Xiao looked around with a guilty conscience, as if he was worried that the Shadow Army would kidnap him the next moment.

"Actually, I've always been curious about your relationship with the man under the Shadow King." Kitahara Akatsuki asked the question that had troubled him for months.

"..." Yegrit was silent for a while

"You can think of it as a parallel universe. We have similar abilities and looks, but our personalities and characters are independent." Yegrit's answer rang out.

"King, in order to be by your side, I have crossed many world barriers. My strength is only one tenth of what it was. Last night, I exhausted the remaining strength. I may have to sleep for a while. During this time, please protect yourself." Yegrit's voice was a little weak.

"…Don't worry, I will find a way to make you wake up soon."

"... "

"Sleep well, Yegrit" Kitahara Akira whispered

"Arnold...what do you mean by a good sleep?" A faint female voice sounded from beside him.

Kitahara Akira quickly raised his head and looked to the side, and a girl with a bob haircut came into view.

"It's Kato. You scared me. When did you come?" Kitahara Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"I just called out to you from behind Kitahara-kun, but you didn't seem to hear me, so I came over here," Kato Megumi said expressionlessly.

"Ah... sorry, sorry, I didn't sleep well last night, so I don't have much energy today." Kitahara Xiao looked at the girl

Even though he had seen it before, even the inhuman Kitahara Akatsuki was careless and failed to detect the presence... It was the Grand Assassin!

Because of this, a month ago, when Kitahara Akira, who had just entered school, greeted the girl sitting at the right table without recognizing her, she asked him, "Can you see me?" and he was so scared that he thought he had run to the Yotsuya Miko Theater next door.

"I feel like Kitahara-kun is thinking about something very rude." The girl stared into Kitahara Akira's eyes.

"Ahem... No, it's just that you were too cute today, Kato, and I was stunned for a moment." Kitahara Akira turned his gaze back to the front without blushing or beating his heart.

"Eh? Even if Kitahara-kun said so, I won't be shy," the girl said, and looked forward. But in a place where Kitahara Akatsuki couldn't see, the corners of her mouth slightly raised

The two chatted casually and walked towards the school together.

"Swish!" Kitahara Xiao opened the door of the classroom.

"Wow~ King of Shadow, instead of running away, you're walking towards me. Are you finally willing to accept the challenge from the Evil King's True Eye?" A middle school girl with an eye patch on her right eye pointed at Kitahara Akira with one hand on her waist.

"Bang!" The young man behind the girl hit the girl on the head with his hand knife, making a crisp sound.

"Stop harassing Xiao. He has rejected us many times!" The boy looked at Kitahara Xiao.

"Good morning, Xiao."

"Morning, Yuta," Kitahara Akira responded.

"Um~Yuta~" Rikka turned her head and looked at Togashi Yuta with tears in her eyes.

"Well... let's go in quickly, the classroom entrance is blocked by us," said Kato Megumi at the side.

"Hmm?! A hidden assassin?! When?!" Rikka took a defensive stance.

"Boom!"

With another knife move, Yuta pulled the circle-eyed Rikka away.

In the corner of the classroom, Hikigaya Hachiman was lying on the table watching the people interacting.

"Damn you, explode!"

...............

Kitahara Akira walked into the classroom and passed by the window row. He glanced at Ying Ye Min, who was pretending to look at the scenery but was actually secretly curled up.

"Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-eight, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine..."

No longer paying attention to this Shadow Lord, Kitahara Akatsuki walked straight to the King's Hometown in the back row.

"Good morning, Yuxing." Kitahara Akira greeted Shirogane Yuxing who was reading in the back seat and sat down.

"Good morning, Akatsuki." Shirogane Miyuki closed the book and glanced at Kato Megumi, who was sitting to the right of Kitahara Akatsuki, to make sure that she wasn't paying attention.

"You and Kato came to school together this morning?" Shirogane Miyuki smiled as if he understood.

"What are you thinking about? We just happened to meet and came to school together." Kitahara Xiao was helpless.

"Really? I think Kato is the one who has the best relationship with you." Shirogane Miyuki was not giving up.

"That's because usually few people can notice her..." Kitahara Akatsuki complained in his heart.

"Hey! Kato and I have a pure gay relationship. But you, have you made any progress with Shinomiya-san? You haven't confessed yet?"

"Not yet... not yet, I don't think it's time yet" Baiyin Yuxing blushed

"Then you should hurry up. With the situation of the Shinomiya family... you never know when Shinomiya-san will be forced to marry...

Yuxing, you don’t want Sigong to marry an old man in his 50s or 60s, do you? "

Kitahara Akira encouraged Shirogane Yuxing

"Yes! I will try my best!" Baiyin Yuxing took a big sip of chicken soup, and the effect was obvious.

...............

It's almost time for class

The bald math teacher walked into the classroom with a book and started teaching

As the saying goes, if you push people too hard, they can do anything, except math problems.

Kitahara Xiao, who had already returned the knowledge to his math teacher in his previous life, looked at the string of numbers and symbols mixed together on the blackboard and made a resolute choice - start!

Close the book, put your head down, and go to sleep, all in one go

"Kitahara-kun, Kitahara-kun!" Kato Megumi, who was sitting on the right, whispered to the sleeping Kitahara Akatsuki, trying to wake him up, but to little avail.

The math teacher on the podium glanced at Bei Yuan Xiao and didn't say anything more. He continued to talk.

Seeing this, Kato Megumi had to give up the risk of waking up Kitahara Akatsuki.

...............

"Kitahara-kun, wake up, it's time for lunch." Kitahara Akira, who slept until noon, was gently awakened by Kato Megumi.

"Um, Kato, is it noon already?" Kitahara Akira rubbed his eyes.

"Yes." Kato has already taken out his lunch box.

"Ah~ Sorry, sorry." Kitahara Xiao also took out his lunch box from the table.

Shirogane Miyuki, Yuta and Rikka also gathered around

Several people put the tables together and prepared to have lunch

"Damn it! The Saint Conditioner has added poison to my strategic reserve in an attempt to suppress my magic power."

Liuhua looked at the green peppers in the bento and wanted to pick them out.

"Don't waste food!" Yuta hit Rika on the head with his knife again

"Um~Yuta~" Rikka looked at Yuta eagerly.

"Ah," Yuta sighed.

"I really can't do anything with you, let me exchange with you"

"Hehe..." Rikka smiled

...............

"Kano-san and Togashi-san are really close," said Kato Megumi, who was sitting opposite them, to Kitahara Akira while watching the two exchange food.

"Almost, but neither of them seems to realize it yet."

Since meeting Yuta and Rikka, Kitahara Akira has been trying to bring them together for a month, and now their relationship is just about to be established.

"By the way, did Kitahara bring his lunch box today? I saw Kitahara always eat bread at noon." Kato Megumi looked at the exquisite lunch box on Kitahara Akatsuki's desk.

“I was just too lazy to do it before, but I still want to improve the food occasionally.”

"Eh? Kitahara-san can cook? I thought your mother cooked."

"Ah~ I'm an orphan and I live alone now, so I know some cooking skills myself." Kitahara Akira took out his chopsticks.

"Sorry, sorry! I didn't know..." Kato Megumi was stunned for a moment and quickly apologized. Her usually calm face was now filled with anxiety.

"It's okay, I don't care about this anymore." Kitahara Xiao smiled

As soon as he opened his eyes, his parents were gone. For Kitahara Akira, the relationship was far less close than that with his adoptive uncle.

"Come, try my cooking." Kitahara Akira picked up an egg-fried bun from his lunch box and gave it to Kato Megumi.

"Kitahara-san, try mine too." Kato Megumi also put a fried shrimp into Kitahara Akira's lunch box

...............

Baiyin Yuxing looked down at the lunch box he had just opened, then looked up at the four people who were exchanging food in pairs. He felt that he was full.
