Chapter 5: Student Council

Zenkichi wonders if he's lucky or not.

After all, he got to live a second chance, got himself a system, got rewards from it and he has a hot childhood friend whose beauty and sexiness exceeds every gravure models in his previous world. That's called luck right? Well not really, especially the last part. Because she has the power to punch him out of existence, not as powerful as a certain purple mad titan with a shiny gauntlet, but still.

Zenkichi knows that he's hard to kill, especially with the Extremis virus in his body that rewrites his DNA to enhance his physiology.

The Extremis Virus in his body has its limits however, especially during the time when he heals major damages done to his body. During that time period, he'll be vulnerable and he would die if he takes another fatal damage, like through his chest. He could heal his internal organs like his lungs and kidneys, but he couldn't heal his heart and brain. That's the major weakness of this virus, well, one of the two. The other was the virus being a bitch when his body starts rejecting it, causing it to start killing him.

But that's not what's important right now, because he was dealing with something so troublesome that he started questioning his luck and ability to survive.

"Do you find the world average? Does the future bore you? Are you just getting by?" Medaka's lips curled into a smile as she passes by rows of standing students. She walked up some stairs into a stage, her back towards the students, then she turned to face them with a ever confident smile on her face that even if the whole world burns, she would still be smiling.

She was now different compared to when Zenkichi first meet her, her clothes really.

It wasn't really different to the normal girl uniform of the academy, with the color being black and the chest area of her uniform is slightly exposed, displaying the upper side of her impressive cleavage, and a more shorter skirt.

"Relax. Even then, life is epic!" A huge flat screen tv behind her lit up, showing her face towards the students. "And to that end, as of today I am your school student council president. School work, love life, family situation and any personal issues. You should submit your woes to the suggestion box without any hesitation. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, I will take on anyone's issues!" She put her left hand on her hip, her other was holding onto a folded fan which unfolded to show the kanji words for 'student council'.

Medaka then turned to the side and said. "Along with school student council vice-president, Zenkichi Hitoyoshi!"

Zenkichi stepped forward, bowed, and said. "Thank you for choosing me. I will be duty-bound and responsible to my position and to everyone in this school."

After saying that, almost every student and teachers in the auditorium began clapping their hands.

'Yup. I am totally fucked.' Zenkichi said to himself as he blankly stares at the students, teachers and then to Medaka. When he helped her try to get the student council president position, he thought that when she wins, he would have limited chances of meeting her and not get sussed out.

Who fucking thought, that by helping her with the campaign, he was elected by the previous vice-president to be her successor!

Six weeks had passed since Medaka had asked Zenkichi to help her run for student council president, and all he could say about it was it was fucking exhausting. It was even worse, as for the entire six weeks he's been getting normal universes.

First week universe, Call of Duty Modern Warfare universe. That week was the second best compared to the next universes, because this one at least gave him awesome and cool guns and tactical armors.

Second week universe, Commercial Beverage Universe. Yeah... it's a weird fucking universe where all he got for the entire week was lifetime supplies of coca-colas, pepsis, mountain dew, coffee, milk, wine and tea. All stored in his inventory. It isn't really all that trash though, considering that he doesn't have to worry about getting dehydrated or get stuck in a place without anything to drink.

Third week universe, Wonder Pets universe. Yeah another weird universe, which he didn't think he would get, and all he got from that entire week were toys and tiny capes. Zenkichi didn't think they were any valuable or useful, so he just gave them to his neighbors who had kids.

Fourth week universe, which I shit you not, The Walking Dead. His favorite tv show in his previous life. This is the first best universe in the entire few weeks since he started helping Medaka with her campaign. Even though all he got were mostly weapons and a vehicle, this universe was still the best because he got Daryl's crossbow and motorcycle, Michonne's katana and Rick's six shooter.

Also, Zenkichi didn't notice this at first, but the year is currently 2010 May while in his previous life it was 2021. So The Walking Dead and some stuff doesn't exist yet.

... should he take advantage of this? He always questions himself about it.

Fifth week universe, Among Us Universe. Again, another weird fucking universe. All he got from this week were different colored space suits, a knife and a gun.

Sixth week, Total Drama Universe. This, he got a lot of weird and normal stuff. That's all what he's going to say.

When the system said random, he didn't think it was this random!

Though at least he has high hopes for this week, which he'll get tomorrow morning.

*Universe: Highschool DXD

Zenkichi stared at his system screen, which only he could see, with a blank expression. Inwardly however, he is ecstatic and excited of what he's going to get tomorrow.

"Hey, did you hear about the rumor about the new student council president and vice-president...?"

"Yeah and I just can't believe it, they're first years just like us."

"I heard that the president thinks so highly of herself, that it's a joke..."

"Sure she's flaming hot, but she's so completely unconventional in everything she does. I even hear the teachers are too scared of her to do anything about it!"

'Ah, there goes the gossip of the background characters again.' Zenkichi rolled his eyes at his classmates' nature to gossip with each other. Though considering that there's not much to do in this school for students to do except studying, except for certain people, he could understand their need of excitement in their student life.

Though, that doesn't mean they have to gossip around with the subject of their entertainment just near them. Do they have a death wish or something?

Zenkichi can let this go, for now, because what they're talking about aren't filled with malicious intent.

"Hey Hitoyoshi, man, I have to say that you and the princess were great there! You standing so incredibly calm and stoic, while she, on the other hand, was talking like she's used to standing in front of people." A familiar cheerful voice reached Zenkichi's ear, making him sat upright from his desk and chair and turned towards a small girl standing to his right side.

Hansode Shiranui, with blue eyes and blue hair, with a curled ahoge on top of her head. She is also has a small figure, making most to mistake her as a elementary student just like his mother.

Affiliation: year one class one. Blood type: AB. Eyesight: 1.5 by 1.5, not as incredible as Zenkichi's however. She's also his classmate and he admittedly has a complicated relationship with.

Not sexual by any means though. It's a, she's a acquaintance yet a friend and best friend kind of complicated relationship? Though he has to admit, compared to Medaka, Zenkichi is certain that he has a more powerful friendship with Shiranui than her.

Was it because of the fear of death if or when Medaka finds out that he isn't who he really is? Or was it because Shiranui's small figure and personality that somewhat matches his mother that it makes him be subconsciously comfortable with her?

... Does that makes him a mama's boy? Eh, it's just a coincidence that his acquittance/friend/best friend has a similar body structure as his mother.

Zenkichi snorted and shook his head around. "It's not like she's used to standing in front of people... It's more she's to standing over people!"

Shiranui chuckled and grinned. "I supposed you could say that, if that weren't the case, there's no chance she could have become the student council president as a first year. Though, couldn't it be said the same as you, vice-president~"

Zenkichi merely smiled.

Shiranui sat down on a nearby desk and added, "Even then, you still couldn't compare to her who got 98% votes of the entire school! She's definitely the undisputed number one! That is to say, even I voted for the princess."

"She was number one in the country in the national exams! She scored an unheard record of deviation score of 90! Even in sports, she takes any records she attempts! She's got innumerable trophies and awards! And it's practically a joke as to how rich her family is, they're said to be holding up the economy singlehandedly!"

"For the sum length of 263.0 meters, she can fly at 60,000 feet at the speed of mach 3! She's got built in intel processing as well!"

Zenkichi sweat dropped. "Uh, you sure you're talking about Medaka-chan and not a mech, right?"

Shiranui just smiled and tilted her head.

Zenkichi's forehead dripped with cold sweat once more.

"...right?" Please tell me you're joking Shiranui, cause with the shit I've seen her do in my memories, I can't help but slowly believe what you have just said.

"Zenkichi!" Zenkichi jumped in place as he felt someone's hand on his shoulder. Fighting his urge to throw the person who was holding his shoulder on the ground, he turned to see Medaka standing behind him with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes?"

"Come with me, it's time to do our student council duties." Zenkichi nodded and stood up from his seat.

Letting go of Zenkichi's shoulder with a smile, Medaka turned and walked towards the open sliding door of the classroom and continued heading towards the student council room, the former following right behind her.

Medaka narrows her eyes and took several glances back and forth to Zenkichi, feeling entirely perplexed. And this wasn't the first time she felt this way, it started ever since school started.

When she looks at Zenkichi, specially his eyes, why does it feel like she's not looking at the Zenkichi that she knows...? It was like she was looking at a different person?

Medaka shook her head around.
