( Arata's POV )
After my less than pleasant first encounter with Sun's father, I spent the night in her room, I was recovering from something I couldn't remember.
After the moment I shared with Sun, I had many things to talk to her about, but I underestimated how tired my body was, I fell into a deep sleep without realizing it, and in the morning, as I was leaving Sun's room, I found out that Sagiri, Ranna, and Urara had spent the night here in another room.
We all gathered quickly and the girls explained to me what had happened the other night; well, Urara was doing most of the talking, Sagiri was looking at the ground with a blushing face and Ranna was staring intensely at Sun.
When I heard Urara's story, I couldn't help but be excited. Having another kind of power within me to master is a good thing to aim for, even when I haven't mastered my other powers, the thing about the side effects sounded bad, but Sun's mother didn't think it was a big deal, so there was no reason to panic, Furthermore, the fact that a beauty like Sun and the others had to be nearby at all times was an absolute plus.
Despite the short but exhausting adventure we had, we still had to go to school, so we went back home to change, Ranna was the only one who lived a little far from here, so we waited for her before walking to school, but before Ranna returned, someone else appeared.
Chisaki: Arata! Good morning.
Chisaki appeared to walk to school with us, but something was different today. When she raised her hand to greet us, I noticed a mark on her ring finger that wasn't there before, That was similar to what had appeared in Sun and the others, and that was something the girls didn't miss.
Chisaki: eh? Is something wrong?
When Chisaki approached us, we stared at her, and of course that confused her a little, At that moment Ranna appeared and she too observed the new mark on Chisaki's finger with intensity.
Ranna started to grumble a little and to prevent things from escalating into something more serious I shifted the girls' attention to something else.
Arata: hey We're going to be late for class if we don't hurry.
We walked to school with me in the middle of the girls to try to keep the peace, and I thought I was doing a good job, but at a certain point my vision became blurry and I could only hear a buzzing sound; my body continued walking slowly and it almost seemed as if I had no control over it.
Sagiri: Arata!
*HONKKKK*
The next thing I knew, Sagiri screamed my name and she pulled at my shirt, yanking me back, we were standing in front of an intersection and a truck had passed in front of me, almost hitting me.
Arata: What happened?
Chisaki: You ignored the traffic light and just kept walking, it looked like you were sleepwalking. Are you okay? Did you stay up all night?
Arata: I guess I zone out a bit.
Well, a lot happened last night. Maybe I really needed more sleep.
Ranna: Take my hand. I'll help you.
Arata: ... thank you.
That incident was strange, but something good came out of it; it brought peace among the girls who were now focused on my condition.
As we walked, I felt a little tired, but nothing like before happened again, we arrived at school without further incident, but when we passed through the gate we started to attract attention.
I guess being surrounded by beautiful girls never fails to attract attention.
//////////////////////////////////
School was a somewhat safe place where my life wouldn't take drastic turns, or so I thought, But that perception was shattered when a large man with a scar appeared in our classroom.
Gozaburo: Alright, listen up, you worms, because I'm not going to repeat myself. My name is Seto Gozaburo, and I will be your teacher from today onward, you can call me Seto-Sensei or boss if you think you have the guts.
I was speechless when I saw the Yakuza boss acting like a teacher while Sun was embarrassed by her father's antics, I didn't know what to think, and then I remembered the mess he'd made the other night, and it all made perfect sense.
This guy is just that overprotective.
Despite Sun's father's dubious credentials, he was doing a decent job as a teacher, Surprisingly, the class wasn't much different from any other day, but in the middle of it I started to feel a little sleepy, and what happened this morning happened again.
My consciousness became somewhat blurred and my head began to bob up and down as if I were about to fall asleep at any moment, Sun's father didn't miss that opportunity and, with a smile on his face, he used his superhuman strength to throw a whiteboard eraser at me, I couldn't defend or dodge, but Ranna reacted quickly and knocked the eraser out of the air with her wooden sword.
Faced with what happened, Sun's father simply clicked his tongue and continued with the class, that feeling of sleepiness passed as quickly as it came, and when this event repeated itself, I began to think that this was the side effect that Sun's mother mentioned.
Sagiri and Ranna seemed to be completely on top of it, so I could concentrate on mastering my newly awakened powers.
