As an Ordinary High School Student in Class 2-F of Soubu High School in Chiba Prefecture, Shiraishi Kawa's homeroom teacher was, without any surprise, Hiratsuka Shizuka.
Perhaps because of his appearance,
he replaced Hachiman Hikigaya, and due to the need to max out the "student" profession level, his grades in all aspects ranked first in the grade.
In terms of personality,
he got along quite well with his classmates and was even the class representative for Chinese language.
"How to ask for leave, that is the question."
Resting his head on Hiraki Hanako's chest, Shiraishi Kawa's first thought after waking up in the morning was this problem. He couldn't just say he was going to another world.
to find Megumin and awaken the "Archmage" profession, could he?
Gently picking up the nearly falling apart Marie from beside him, he looked at the gradually brightening sun outside the window. After a brief thought, he decided to open LINE.
He found Hiratsuka Shizuka's avatar.
After much thought,
Shiraishi Kawa felt it was best to be straightforward. He directly typed: "Teacher Hiratsuka, I have something today and would like to request a day off."
"…"
After sending the message, he, being an early riser, did not go back to sleep.
After a simple wash-up at home, since there was indeed a somewhat flimsy reason for absence, he prepared to go to Soubu High School.
If all went well,
Shiraishi Kawa's next destination would be the Konosuba World where Aqua was.
As the key turned in the lock, it was clear that Izumi Miori was coming. She looked half-asleep.
Yawning.
Izumi Miori's voice was even a bit lacking in energy: "Good morning, Shiraishi-kun."
"Good morning, Auntie."
For an erotic artist, staying up late was absolutely common, so Shiraishi Kawa didn't find it unusual and greeted her in a normal tone.
He took a bottle of milk from the refrigerator.
Just as he was about to warm it in hot water, his phone in his pocket vibrated briefly. He opened it and saw a message from Hiratsuka Shizuka.
"Shiraishi-kun, do you need to take time off for something?"
"..."
Given Hiratsuka Shizuka's personality of caring for her students, Shiraishi Kawa wasn't particularly surprised by this reply. It would be easy to make up an excuse.
He thought carefully.
There was no need to make up an excuse, so he replied earnestly: "Teacher, I have a very important matter to handle, so I can only ask for leave."
Perhaps she was driving and waiting at a traffic light.
He quickly received good news.
"It's best to have other students relay today's homework. If the matter is difficult to handle, you can call me."
"Thank you, Teacher."
In many web novels of his previous life, Hiratsuka Shizuka was portrayed as a violent woman, but Shiraishi Kawa certainly didn't agree with this. Only by interacting with her...
could one truly understand how dedicated this teacher was to each student.
He smiled and shook his head, then shifted his gaze to the breakfast that was almost ready: warm milk, paired with a soft-boiled egg and a sandwich.
Breakfast was quite hearty.
Looking at Izumi Miori, who had taken off her apron and was sluggishly preparing to leave, Shiraishi Kawa still chose to invite her: "Auntie, aren't you going to eat something?"
"No need."
"I want to go back and catch up on sleep."
She didn't even dare to look Shiraishi Kawa in the eye. Izumi Miori just wanted to hurry home and stay there. The main reason was that she hadn't expected that last night...
in such a short time...
just seeing his well-defined muscles, she would actually dream of...lewd things with Shiraishi Kawa!
She quickly waved her hand, suppressing the budding thoughts deep inside her, and chose to slip away under the pretense of catching up on sleep.
"..."
"I don't know why, but I always feel that Auntie Izumi is a bit strange."
Shiraishi Kawa frowned slightly. As the security door closed again, he quickly finished the breakfast on the table without thinking any deeper.
He decisively opened the Dimensional Chat Group.
With Aqua and Gabriel around, the Chat Group's content was basically all spam. He quickly browsed but found no useful information.
He directly opened the Interdimensional Teleportation Anchor function.
"Do you wish to travel to the 'konosuba' world?"
"Yes!"
#
Novice Adventurer City.
Axel.
In the Adventurers' Guild in the early morning, many Adventurers had already gathered. They crowded around the job counter, their eyes full of anticipation.
Blonde hair tied in a high ponytail.
Luna, the older sister wearing the Adventurers' Guild uniform, had an undeniable beauty, but what drew more attention was her impressive figure.
In front of many Adventurers.
Luna's eyes were quite surprised, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "Huh? Aside from intelligence being below average, and luck being unbelievably low..."
"All other stats are significantly above average!"
With the exclamation of Luna, the most popular signboard girl in the Adventurers' Guild, the surrounding Adventurers also couldn't help but cheer for Aqua.
"Although you can't become a Magician, which requires high intelligence..."
"You can freely choose any other profession! Crusader Knight, Sword Master, High Priest—you can basically choose all advanced professions right from the start!"
"..."
Holding her Adventurer card in both hands, Aqua's face was so dark it had no light. Her eyes were fixed on the last column, the luck stat.
She looked like a salted fish who had lost her dream.
Her lifeless gaze fell upon Luna, the signboard girl. She only felt that the surrounding Adventurers were exceptionally noisy and couldn't help but ask: "Is there any way to increase my luck stat?"
"Hmm."
"Actually, the luck stat isn't very useful for an Adventurer! And the luck attribute is determined at birth; there's no way to increase it."
"..."
For some reason, Aqua finally understood why her sign-in points in the Dimensional Chat Group were always the lowest.
She always felt life...was so boring.
However.
As magic power flowed continuously beside her, the magic circle of the Interdimensional Teleportation Anchor gradually formed, finally drawing Aqua's attention.
After a brief flash of light.
Suddenly standing beside her was Shiraishi Kawa, dressed in casual sportswear. Noticing Aqua standing beside him with a look of despair, out of politeness...
he chuckled and greeted her.
"Good morning, Aqua!"
"You...who are you?"
Aqua briefly recovered her mood. This teleportation magic was definitely not a product of this world, and the other party even knew her.
She vaguely recalled the sudden notification message that popped up in the Dimensional Chat Group last night.
Her beautiful and intelligent face was now furrowed in confusion as she asked: "You wouldn't happen to be...that Ordinary High School Student, would you?!"
"..."
A moment later, Aqua, completely disregarding her image, hugged Shiraishi Kawa's arm and said with a tearful voice: "Please."
"Teach me how to raise my luck stat! I don't want to stay in this world anymore!!!"
