"Mr. Accelerator, how is it? Is it okay?" Yoshino looked at Accelerator a little nervously. Yoshino cooked every day, and each time, Yoshino would ask Accelerator for his opinion.
This was already a daily routine, but the answer every time was... "Tch! Just so-so." Yes, it was always this answer.
It was well-known that Yoshino's cooking skills were very high, and in fact, Yoshino's cooking was really delicious.
However, Accelerator stated that he would not honestly say these words, only saying in a tsundere manner that it wasn't bad, but not necessarily good either.
"Hmm! I understand." Hearing Accelerator's answer, Yoshino lowered her head, feeling a little disappointed.
Is it that answer again? No, no way!
"Next time, next time I'll work hard to make Mr. Accelerator praise my cooking!" She cute ly cheered herself on, clenching her right fist in front of her.
Yoshino stated that she would try her best to see Accelerator without his tsundere demeanor.
"...Hmph!" Accelerator paused the hand holding his spoon, gave a light snort, and continued eating breakfast.
"There he goes again, there he goes again. Tsundere Mr. Accelerator, what's wrong with just praising Yoshino properly?"
Shiina couldn't help but tease Accelerator, who was quietly eating breakfast.
"Hey! Dead Rabbit, are you looking for death again?"
Accelerator looked at Shiina with murderous intent. He really wanted to tear that mouth apart. Don't think he wouldn't do it.
"Oh my, oh my~ So scary, so scary. Is scary Mr. Accelerator going to tear Shiina apart? No, no, that would make Yoshino very sad. Does Mr. Accelerator want to see Yoshino sad and upset?"
You wouldn't dare, would you? loli con, I'm going to call you a loli con, what can you do to me?
"Tch! Dead Rabbit." He really couldn't do anything to it, only threaten it verbally.
"Mr. Accelerator, Yoshino is ready to go to school. Lunch has been prepared and is in the bento box. If it gets cold, you can heat it up." After finishing breakfast and washing the dishes, Yoshino, dressed in her school uniform and carrying her bag, said her usual words to Accelerator before leaving.
Although it was repeated every day, Yoshino repeated it every day. However, each time she would be told she was being bothersome.
"...Hey! Stinky brat. How are you at school? Has anyone... has anyone bullied you?" Accelerator said intermittently.
Never having cared for others, he didn't know how to express his emotions, only able to ask in such an awkward way.
"...Mm! It's fine, everyone is kind and friendly to Yoshino. But on the way, there are always strange people blocking Yoshino in a corner, and every time the Disciplinary Committee Member appears just as they are about to do something. These things happen every day..."
She remembered that Shirai Kuroko always saved her. Why was she always so timely?
Shiina had also told her not to display her spiritual power; it was her trump card.
"...Is that so?" A red light flashed in his eyes. As Number One, how could he not know what those people were trying to do by blocking Yoshino?
It seems necessary to properly deal with those scum now.
He needed to make them understand what they could and could not do.
"Make sure you study hard, okay? You are only a Level 0 right now, and you'll be in great danger if you encounter any trouble. If anything happens, you can call me on the phone I gave you, and I'll rush over very quickly."
Gently stroking Yoshino's head, Accelerator gently admonished her.
"Understood, Mr. Accelerator. Well then, I'm heading out!"
After putting on her shoes, Yoshino waved goodbye to Accelerator at the entrance, ready to leave.
"...Be careful on the way."
Yoshino, who was about to close the door, heard the voice from inside and paused, then, unable to suppress her happy smile, she closed the door.
"This little brat."
Looking at the departing Yoshino, a smile appeared on Accelerator's face.
He looked at the bento box on the dining table, opened it to see the carefully prepared dishes, and reached out to pick up a fried shrimp, putting it into his mouth.
Savoring the delicious taste in his mouth, he couldn't help but reveal a beautiful smile.
"Well, there are still things to do today. Those scum, just wait for This great me's judgment."
After packing the bento box, Accelerator left the house; he had many things to do today.
"You're in a good mood, Yoshino."
Seeing Yoshino with a 'I'm in a very good mood' expression plastered on her face, Shiina couldn't help but say.
"Accelerator-san can already greet me. As long as we put in a little more effort, we can properly remove the tsundere mask from Accelerator-san's heart and immediately see Accelerator-san's true self."
'Now we need to work hard, Yoshino. Victory is within reach.'
"Mhm."
Nodding, Shiina also really wanted to see the day Accelerator turned into Suzuya Yuriko.
"...Yoshino, ahead, ahead. Someone is waiting for you."
Yoshino's two good friends from school were right in front of her.
From their appearance, it seemed one of them was complaining about something to the other.
Although she didn't see the scene, Yoshino understood what had happened.
"Ahaha, it can't be helped. After all, Ruiko just has that kind of personality, doesn't she?"
She liked to lift Uiharu Kazari's skirt; that was her hobby.
Yoshino had also asked why she did it, and the answer was... it was a friendly exchange.
So what kind of friendly exchange was this, exactly?
"Yoshino, you're here. Good morning."
Saten Ruiko greeted her with great energy. Such a lively Saten Ruiko reminded Yoshino of Hoshizora Rin and Kousaka Honoka.
They were all such energetic people.
"Yoshino, listen to me. Saten-san just lifted my skirt like that on the street, it was too much."
Uiharu Kazari's cheeks were red, her hands clenched into fists, swinging up and down angrily, looking absolutely adorable.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. How about I show you my panty too?"
Saying that, Saten Ruiko was about to lift her skirt, but Yoshino, blushing, grabbed her hand.
"Yahahaha~ You're so pure, Yoshino. You're so cute that it makes me want to hug you like a pillow and sleep."
Pinching Yoshino's little face, Saten Ruiko said with a smile.
For this friend she had known for less than a month, the cuteness from Yoshino was the energy she needed every day.
"Let go of Yoshino, you skirt-lifting maniac! Don't let your sinful hands touch Yoshino's face! You scoundrel!"
Shiina waved her arms, saying, 'Isn't it enough that you do such things to Uiharu Kazari? Are you still going to do such things to Yoshino? No! I will protect Yoshino!'
"Hmph~ So what if I'm a skirt-lifting maniac? But don't worry, I won't do such rude things to Yoshino."
Doing such things to Yoshino would make her feel guilty.
"You, you even know that's a rude thing to do?"
Uiharu Kazari shouted from the side, she had always been treated so rudely.
Looking at the two who started bickering again, Yoshino laughed happily. This was the life she wanted.
There was a lot of darkness in this Academy City; let her protect them.
