Chapter 205: Wants to Find a Time Machine
Oregairu World.
Shizuka Hiratsuka woke up in her apartment, rubbing her head. Because of her hangover, she still felt a bit of a headache and dizziness, but she was used to this feeling. It wasn't the first time.
"Yesterday... did I see some kind of hallucination?" Shizuka frowned.
She remembered that before she had completely passed out last night, she seemed to have joined some kind of chat group. Thinking it was a hallucination, she had gone and exposed herself as an old maid.
Splash...
After washing her face in the bathroom, the now-sober Shizuka looked at the chat group.
Poof!
At this moment, realizing it was not a hallucination, Shizuka's face instantly turned beet red. What did I even say yesterday? She was so embarrassed she could have dug a new Tokyo Bay with her toes.
[Shizu-cute]: "Ahem, good morning everyone. Have you eaten?"
Although she wanted to wait until they had all forgotten about it before popping up, the chat group had a memory. She had no choice but to show her face. To lose this much face right after joining... drinking really messes things up.
[Gudako]: "Yo, isn't it the old maid who's almost thirty and still unwanted?"
[Shizu-cute]: "Please, don't talk about that."
Shizuka was dying of shame. She clenched her fists. At this moment, she really wanted to find Doraemon's time machine. When in doubt, find a time machine first. She wanted to go back and beat up her yesterday-self. Drinking was one thing, but why did she have to expose herself like that? She was almost thirty and still not married... how could she say such a thing? How was she supposed to show her face in this chat group in the future?
Although it was the truth, for so many people to know, and for her to have said it herself... she was suffering a complete social death right now. She wanted to just leave the group. They all knew her dark history now. Killing them to silence them... please, there was no way she could do that.
[Galactic Baseballer]: "Um, Teacher, are you really almost thirty and still not married?"
It wasn't that it was a strange thing, but Shizuka's self-exposure yesterday was just so interesting that one couldn't help but want to tease her a bit.
[God's Tongue]: "Ahem, let's give the newcomer some face. She must have her own difficulties."
[Star Forger]: "That's right. There are a lot of single, unmarried female teachers."
Right, Teacher Himeko? Died without a man.
At the same time, on the Bacchus Islands.
A tipsy Himeko: "Achoo!"
[Shizu-cute]: "..."
You're so good at comforting people. Shizuka didn't know what to say. Many of her old classmates were already married. Every time she went to a wedding, it was so awkward.
[A Mere Mortal]: "This old man is over a hundred years old and still has no Daoist partner. Young people don't need to be in a hurry. Look on the bright side. When fate arrives, you will find your destined other half."
Shizuka was speechless. The realm of this senior was a level that a commoner like her could not hope to reach. His mentality was truly transcendent.
[Shizu-cute]: "Honored masters, in this group... I'm not the only ordinary person from a slice-of-life world, am I?"
These group members, just from their nicknames, were terrifyingly strong. She was not satisfied with her nickname, "Shizu-cute." It made her feel a little ashamed. She was almost thirty; how could she be described as "cute"?
[God's Tongue]: "My world, I think, can be considered a rather special slice-of-life world. Besides the special cuisine, there are no supernatural events."
[Shizu-cute]: "Thank goodness. So I'm not the only ordinary person."
In a group of masters who could one-shot the heavens and the earth, she was so weak, pitiful, and helpless.
[Shadowkhan Queen]: "I'm just an ordinary person too, although my world has magic."
[Star Forger]: "Jade, you're no ordinary person. As a member of the protagonist's team, how could you be ordinary?"
The former Shadowkhan Queen, the reincarnation of a Saint... with just these two identities, she was not someone an ordinary person could be. Unless it was another definition of "ordinary."
[Shadowkhan Queen]: "Is that so? But if I don't use the Talismans and stuff, I should be in the category of an ordinary person, right?"
Her skills were not as good as Uncle's, and her magic was not as good as Old Man's. She could only play a role in desperate situations.
[Star Forger]: "@Shizu-cute, by the way, do you have a student named Hachiman Hikigaya?"
[Shizu-cute]: "Don't call me by that nickname, it's very embarrassing, you know. Hikigaya? Do you know him?"
Shizuka thought of that problem student, and the corner of her mouth couldn't help but twitch. It really made her feel tired. If his personality wasn't corrected, she was worried about what would happen after he graduated.
[Star Forger]: "One of the Four Greats of early Japanese school anime. His nickname is 'Self-Destructing Infantry'."
[Shizuka Hiratsuka]: "Self-Destructing Infantry?"
Shizuka Hiratsuka frowned, recalling some of Hachiman Hikigaya's usual behavior. Damn it, he really was a self-destructing infantryman. That summary was not wrong. With that adjective, the vibe was suddenly there.
[Crash-Test Pilot]: "The Four Greats? Are they like school bullies?"
[Shadowkhan Queen]: "Teacher Shizu's student is a school bully? Cool~"
[Shizu-cute]: "No, no, no! Hikigaya is not a school bully."
Shizuka quickly denied it. His presence was so low, how could he be a school bully? Not many people probably even knew him. If Hikigaya were a school bully, that twisted personality of his might have been changed a bit.
[Miss Pink Elf♪]: "I'm very curious. What are the titles of the other three?"
[Star Forger]: "The Energy Conservationist—Houtarou Oreki; No Emotions—Kiyotaka Ayanokoji; Master of Smooth Talk—Sakuta Azusagawa."
[Star Forger]: "These few are problem students. Their makeup is rather special, different from normal people."
Hachiman Hikigaya: Look, a world where only I get hurt has been completed.
Kiyotaka Ayanokoji: Look, a world where only I don't get hurt has been completed.
Houtarou Oreki: Look, a world where no one gets hurt has been completed.
Sakuta Azusagawa: Look, a world where no one doesn't get hurt has been completed.
[Stank]: "There are really a lot of talented people in schools. Each one is more peculiar than the last."
[Gudako]: "To be able to teach one of the Four Greats, Shizu-cute is not ordinary either."
[Shizu-cute]: "I never taught Hikigaya to develop in that direction!"
Shizuka's mouth twitched. She would not take the blame for this. The slice-of-life world had its talents. Fortunately, she only knew one of them. If all four of them were gathered together, the world might as well be destroyed.
[The Champion]: "Very special people. Even in other worlds, they are not common."
[God's Tongue]: "Teacher Shizu, is that student of yours easy to manage?"
[Shizu-cute]: "He's alright. Hikigaya doesn't get into much trouble or break the rules."
Shizuka thought for a moment. Besides being a bit of a self-destructor, her student was, on the whole, within an acceptable range. Thank goodness he wasn't that "No Emotions" guy. He sounded like a very ruthless and cold-blooded person.
