Do you remember I said I don't want anything to do with the girl that looks like MEI? Well… I guess the world hates me.

"Urien-kun, you will be partnering up with Raiden-san for this project. She is one of the best students in the class, so I am sure she will be able to explain everything you need," the teacher said as she partnered two students in a group.

And now, I am sitting side by side with another version of MEI. I think my face is showing dissatisfaction, and the girl looks disturbed by it. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the girl. But… I can't help but remember Dr. MEI whenever I see her face. And I don't like that.

"Hello, my name is Raiden Mei, I am sorry for not introducing myself sooner," she introduced herself, not minding the look on my face.

So, her name is Mei too, eh? What a coincidence. I wonder… if she is the counterpart of MEI in this world, there will be another version of Himeko in this world too, right? No, no, no. Don't make your hopes up, Urien. Even if there is another version of her, she is not the person you had grown up with.

"It is… nice to meet you," I nodded. "As you already know, my name is Urien Gregorios. You can just call me Urien," I replied as I kept writing down the note the teacher was giving.

And... There is an awkward silence between us. The teacher is writing on the blackboard and other students are taking notes.

"Did I do something to make you hate me?" the girl suddenly asked.

"Hahh…" I sighed and dragged my hand down my face. I guess I wasn't being fair to this… Mei.

"No, it was not your fault," I whispered not to let the teacher know that we were talking.

"Then…?" she exclaimed quietly.

"It… is complicated," I answered, not willing to disclose further.

Do I hate MEI? Yes, a little. Do I admire her? Yes, a lot. We won't be able to survive that far in my previous life without her help. I hate her because of the stunt she pulled before I died but I can also understand why she did that.

The girl from my side went quiet after I stopped talking. Things went on like that until the teacher left the class.

"I… am going back to my seat. And I will send you my portion of the assignment when I am done with it," I said, earning a nod from her.

This will be for the best. I mean, it hurts whenever I spend time with this girl. She made me remember all about the sufferings I had to go through in my previous life. Am I a coward? Yes, I am. I am afraid to suffer like that again.

It was lunchtime and I walked to the roof today as well. It is the only place where I can be at peace while thinking about all the things I need to go through. I was homeschooled from where I came from. I was taught all the subjects by my father while how to fight by my mothers. So, school roofs are one of the things I missed in my normal life. After all, this was also the place where we left our innocent lives.

KEVIN, SU, and I were on the rooftop, skipping the class because it was boring. It was when the disaster struck Nagazora, causing almost all the people in the school to turn into zombies.

I sighed and continued to eat my lunch. I stopped thinking about it as it might make me lose my appetite.

The day went on just like yesterday. Of course, I still tried to avoid Mei as much as I could. But I don't know why she tries to talk to me whenever she can.

The final bell rang and it was time for us to go back home. I ignore the obvious attempt of Raiden trying to make me notice her.

"Urien-san," I heard someone else calling me from behind, so I turned around to meet the one who called me.

I saw a dark-haired girl, I believe she is a "Class president, right? Do you need anything?" I asked.

"I would like to ask if you are joining any club activities," she asked.

"Is it necessary to join a club?" I raised my eyebrow. I need to go to my part-time job every weekday.

"Not really. But joining one will help you with your academic record," the girl explained.

Hmm… what to do. "I… won't be joining one, sorry," I said. I need to work part-time jobs to make sure I can pay for bills.

"I see… I will be noting that down. But don't be shy to inform me once you change your mind," the girl nodded and noted down in her notebook. And, Raiden-san? Please stop glancing at me from time to time.

After saying goodbye to the class president, I went to my part-time job. There isn't anyone who actually dared to sexually harass the employees, so I am just standing there and serving the ladies who came to the cafe, which is strange. I never thought that girls would be coming to the maid cafe. But, who am I to judge?

By the end of my shift, I got tons of phone numbers from the ladies who visited the cafe. Am I… really that popular? Well… I guess I didn't notice that because I was always together with KEVIN in my previous life.

As I walked back to my home, I noticed that I forgot to buy pudding for Kyuushou. So, I turned back to look for the convenience store. Most of the stores are open 24 hours so, it was not hard to find the store.

"Welcome!"

I looked for the pudding and found varieties of them and I have absolutely no idea what to buy for Kyuushou. So, I chose the most expensive one for her.

"It will be 1000 Homu Coins, sir," the cashier replied after scanning the pudding.

I sighed and paid for it. But before that, I saw some kittens outside the store and I asked, "Are those kittens yours?"

"No, sir. They are from the alleyway from the side of the store," he replied. Hmm…

"One moment please," I said and quickly picked a bottle of milk from the aisle.

"I will take this too," I put the bottle in front of the cashier and he smiles.

"Will you be taking a bowl, sir? It will be on me," he said.

"Hmm?" I raised my eyebrow.

"The thing is although I want to feed them, the manager forbids me to do so," the cashier rubbed his neck.

"I see. I will take it then," I nodded.

"Thank you for your purchase!"

I grabbed the bowl and heated milk from the store and walked toward the kittens. Oh my god! These little things are so cute! They keep meowing at me when they got the scent of the milk. I think there are about 5 of them.

"Here you go, little guys. Drink up," I sit down near them and watch over them.

While I was feeding the kittens, I heard the faint sounds of footsteps coming this way. When I turned around, I saw the two girls coming this way.

3rd POV

In front of the T.V, a petite girl is holding a game controller. She has light grey colored drill-shaped twin-tail hair. Her name is Bronya Zaychik.

"Today, subject Savior said she will be introducing her friend to the Bronya," the girl muttered emotionlessly. Savior was the online friend she gained last month. The gaming skill of that person is as good as hers.

While she was waiting, she heard a furious yell from the outside.

"Matushka is angry," the girl muttered. "I want to know why," she thought. But she was sure that her Matushka won't tell her anything about the subject. So, she did the best possible thing. She bugged Matushka's office.

Bronya put her controller on the chair softly and walked toward her bed to grab the Homu-shaped earphones.

"What do you mean the leader of Immortal Blades is in Nagazora!" She heard her Matushka clearly.

"You know what? Stop whatever you and the team are doing until they returned back to Schicksal

HQ! It will be a problem if our little experiment was found out by her," she could hear tiredness in her Matushka's voice. After a while, she heard the sound of the phone being hung up.

"Hahh… why now? It looks like I need to step up my plan," Bronya heard Matushka muttering on the other side.

"Hello? Yes, this is Cocolia. I would like to file a lawsuit. Yes, it is about embezzling the funds. Yes," she then heard Matushka call another call but she had enough. She puts the earphones back in place and waits for the friend of her party member to come.

Urien's POV

One of the girls has strawberry blonde hair and the other has honey blonde hair. The first one has long hair, reaching her hips. As for the second one, her hair only reaches the back of her neck.

"Look, Rita! Those kittens look very cute!" the long-haired one exclaimed to the one named Rita.

The two of them walk toward me but it looks like they don't notice me but their eyes are on the kittens.

"They sure are," I replied to the long-haired girl's statement.

Only then did the two of them notice me. But what shocked me was what came out of the long-haired girl's mouth.

"Overseer Otto?"

Author's Note;

A bit slow-paced but I intended to add a bit of Slice of Life to it. So, Cocolia steps up her plans and Doo Doo is in the city. Urien will still be alive... I guess?

And thank you, Morishima Yuu for Urien's portrait! He looks amazing! You can check their Instagram account in the paragraph comment.
