Oops?
"You should properly clean the table, my dear Daniel-kun, the great devil ape does not appreciate slackers." My senior colleague Enji Koma spoke with his iconic pose that I have gotten used to. "Do you mind showing me oh great devil ape?" I replied in an attempt to flatter him, after all, if my senior does my job for me, I have to work less!
"Huhuhu….I suppose it can't be helped. Very well then, the great one shall impart his wisdom onto youuu-ACK" His young master momentum was thrown off by kaya Irimi, another senior of mine, who had graciously poured hot tea into his hand. "Daaaniel kyuuun~ don't…take…advantage of your…seniors okay?"
"I have no idea what you are talking about?" I replied knowing full well, that they have no evidence to back me into a corner. Enji had decided to help me on his own accord.
"Heee…you're smarter than the rest of them huh."
"Ahaha, I just want to impress my beautiful senior." Needless to say, I was a kiss-ass in this café.
[Why?]
The manager may get rid of me if he finds a flaw in my work. Their support will come in handy.
*Flick*
My forehead received a small flick from Irimi who now had a pleased smile on her face. "I'll let it go just this once."
"Heh…it seems the great devil ape has gained another fan." Enji interrupted with a clear intent to provoke Irimi. "What! He's clearly talking about me!"…..And it worked.
Ignoring the two bickering clowns, I returned to doing my job while being stared at by the last co-worker.
"Do you wish to say something Kirishima-san?"
"….No" Saying so, she went back into the other room which was apparently not accessible to me.
What a boring day it is.

It's this way right?
[…]
C'mon, give me a hint here.
[How can you forget your way back home?]
Can you blame me? I mean, I just got here, it hasn't even been a month.
[Haah….take a left]
"Ahaha, well isn't this my new pet!" A gruff voice entered my ears, and I could already feel a sense of foreboding. Turning around, I saw the same kid I had fought with before.
"Vin." That simple word worked wonders to make him mad.
"Who said you could use my name without my permission?" He walked toward me slowly in an attempt to intimidate me.
"Pfft" Sadly, it looked hilarious.
"Pfft" His blonde girlfriend also seemed to find this funny as she started to cover her mouth to not worsen the moment.
"You're dead."
"No you are!" I didn't give him a chance to get the last word and pounced on him. It was probably a surprise to him. Who would expect someone who already lost once, to come back for a beating.
It was so unexpected that, he stayed rooted on his spot and took my hit.
"Fuck." I muttered in annoyance as I looked at my hand. The soft squishy hand was now red like a tomato after hitting his left leg, although the damage I gave him was enough to magically tear through his clothes, it wasn't enough to damage his body.
His stupor didn't last for long as he started raining blows on me, each heavier than the last.
What the hell is wrong with this body?
[What's wrong?]
My body is strong and also weak.
[Meaning?]
It's strong enough to dish out a strong punch but slow as fuck. The eyes seem to be special, It's almost on par with a sharingan when it comes to dynamic vision. Lastly, vin's body should not be able to generate enough force to crack the pavement without damaging himself.
[Don't question the physics of another world.]
Tch.
As expected, I was still no match for him. Other than a few dodges, I was only able to hold on while guarding my head. At this point, I was just a punching bag.
"I'm gonna beat you up so bad that you won't even dare to attempt that ever again."
He spoke with a smile while cocking his fist. It was so telegraphed that I couldn't help it.
[You're gonna die.]
Heh… we both know that's impossible.
*BAM*
It was a glorious uppercut. The punch was so great, that even the blonde girl stated laughing hysterically.
"You…"
"HAHA….oops?"
Those are the last words I remember muttering before waking up in the hospital.
