Draft 3

That means I've been doing this for quite some time now, enough, at least, to kill God with sheer sacrifice alone.

No, that's not true. Spirit Bomb's restriction is much more than that. It requires the target to tell the user that they're willing to grant them any wish they want.

Even though I don't remember how I did that, I can infer what was probably running through their mind at that time.

They thought I would ask them something relating to my wife seeing that I devoted myself to her despite them desperately pushing a harem end towards me.

It was true love, and those bastards ruined it by forcing me to reincarnate even though I desperately begged to be freed. Not to mention being petty and reincarnating me as an abused child in Meteor City for not going along their script without the promise to be granted any wish, not knowing the wish itself was the trap.

All I needed was the verbal promise anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if they planned on renegading on the promise once they verbally affirm it, all while enjoying the hopelessness they thought I'd drown myself in.

Sighing, I said, "That's why a happy ending should be just that --- an end, but here I jumping off the page and continuing on."

I turned around, looking at the reflection on the store's window.

There stood the reflection of a handsome 15 year old boy with a two-block haircut and baggy clothes, surrounded by pink neon lights inspecting himself, as if looking for a flaw on his charming face.

I'm not just saying that because it's me, you know. I really am objectively handsome, or rather, beautiful. I may not be handsome in a rugged, manly sense, but in this time and age, my looks would make me the dream lover of both cougars and young women alike.

Come to think of it, who is this character supposed to be? I don't recall his name or his face. Not before and especially not now that this body has fully adapted to my soul or rather, what remains of it.

"Are those toys really that interesting? You've been staring at it for the past 5 minutes."

A monotone and soft voice came from my side. Frankly, I couldn't care less about this girl so I didn't feel the need to turn around while answering.

"You've been staring at me for the past 5 minutes. Do you think I'm interesting?"

I answered with the same degree of monotone, this time, looking beyond the store glass, and seeing the various adult toys displayed surrounded by pink LED lights that's attached to the shelves.

"I think you're crazy staring at adult toys with such a serious expression."

This girl is too frank, isn't she? Not that I care, since I'm not actually staring at the set of silicon jugs that for some reason has a hole at the middle. Yep, I'm definitely not affected.

Let's ignore her from now on.

Time passed by just like that with the two of us being at a deadlock, with me continuing to think about what I want to do in this life and the girl, well, she surprisingly has more mettle than I initially thought. I mean, even a saint would get irritated being ignored, right?

"I also think you're sentimental."

Ah. This girl has been staring at me for a bit more than 5 minutes, huh? I blanked out having dove deep into a memory that I didn't notice her.

"Actually, I was inspecting my face the entire time. I didn't even notice what kind of shop this is before you told me.

Satisfied?"

This time, I turned towards her, looking straight at her magenta colored pupils while remaining as stoic as possible.

I knew she can get extremely curious, after all, no one in their right mind would give their virginity up to a stranger to relate with their friends, but to approach a mass murderer and even keep it up after being ignored is too much, really.

"I see."

This girl...

To think that not even her pokerface can hide what she's thinking. Who said she's bad at communication? She's communicating perfectly fine with neither visual cues nor speech. Isn't this a genius?

I want a communication problem manga with her as the no.1 elite seat and Komi as the MC. Yup, that would definitely sell.

"You're also a narcissi-"

"Stop.

Fine, you win. I'll let you use me for whatever reason."

"You can tell?"

Wait, was she this cute in the anime? Since when does she tilt her head like that? And that soft monotone voice is growing on me for some reason.

I honestly would really favor her if not for the fact she has shit tastes in men, and extremely low standards at that.

"I can.

There's no reason for you to approach me other than to use me to pass the time.

Unless... are you interested in me? Sorry but I'm a not-once-in-my-life-touched-a-girl-virgin you won't enjoy doing it with me so please find someone else."

I tried to deliver my line as dry and monotone as possible while raising my right arm to emphasize my virginity.

I didn't watch the anime entirely, but I get the general gist of what happened early on, even if it's just from contex

Yosh, that should do the trick!
