' Never end happiness is a lie, I'm not saying you won't be happy for long periods of time I'm just saying that with every new high comes a new low. '
The boy read as the wheels of his skateboard eat up the cracks of the sidewalk.
His red colored eyes were only focus on the small book in his hands it was surprisingly that avoiding anything it was like he had some kind of ultra instinct.
' Well yes life is more exciting this way, only an NPC would think otherwise. '
" Ren, can you believe it? " A boy sudden appeared In front of Ren's speeding skate board with his arms stretched out.
The bags under the boy's blue eyes, messy short black hair that made him look like he was chase out of his bed.
" Tatsuya, I've told you spawning out nowhere Is like asking to be ran over. " Ren's focus shifted to boy Infront of him.
" You are just trapped in your world I'm certain you don't even notice the people around you. ' Tatsuya commented.
And it was true, the moment the boy stopped him the world seemed to pixilate into focus, students wearing the same black and white striped uniforms sudden became visible to them.
' well I can't help it, random npc's are mostly, no always at the bottom of the ladder they don't play any significant roles. ' he thought.
Then he as leaned forward and stopped his board right Infront of the boy with inhuman precision
" I don't have time for your weeb waifu nonsense this early in the morning. Only talk if it's important."
" don't... disrespect my waifus, you'd understand if gave it a chance " the boy said
" No thanks I'm good, let's talk as we walk, timing... is everything. " Ren suggested as he straightened his black uniform and grabbed his skateboard.
' I'm sure certain otakus will fall in love with anything but real women. ' Ren thought when noticed the anime straps on Tatsuya's bag as they walked.
" I only got 25 points from the last quest we got. " Tatsuya said pulling out his phone from his pocket and showing it to Ren.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
The screen read, " DON'T STUDY FOR THE UPCOMING TEST, +50 POINTS. ( Quest 50% complete. ) "
Upon reading the text Ren stayed silent for a moment then after a breath he spoke. " Well I think I understand why this happened, let me guess you answered everything correctly didn't you? "
" Crap... I should've just let Rick take this quest like you suggested and yes you are right I stupidly answered everything correctly. "
Ren stared at the screen again." DON'T STUDY FOR THE UPCOMING TEST, +50 POINTS. ( Quest 50% complete. ) "
At the bottom it read " POINTS EARN 1500 POINTS. WISH MARK CURRENTLY UNKNOWN. "
" Well I think this a partial reward and quest has expired. " Ren explained then he handed him his phone back.
He then added. " Well you don't do anything wrong more like you just are too smart for your own good when a person doesn't study they are usually fail. "
Tatsuya's blue eyes lit up, " oh you are right, don't study equals failing which makes sense why we only got a part of the points... well this makes things complicated. "
As the two continued talking they arrived at the school and three students were standing at the front gates.
Ren and Tatsuya walked pass them then suddenly out of nowhere when they heard a voice from behind.
" Ren! " A girls voice screamed. Ren not bothered continued walking
" Ren Katagiri! "
And Tatsuya with a puzzled look called out to him, " Ren bro, the student council president is calling for you, can you not hear her. "
" Is that so the student council... " He said as he stopped and turned back waiting the furious looking girl approaching him.
" Ren Katagiri did you not hear when I was calling for you. " She said her emerald eyes glaring at him.
Ren didn't respond immediately and Tatsuya gave him a side glance trying to understand what was going through his mind.
After a moment Ren finally spoke, " ooooh you were calling me, I did not hear but.... are you okay? "
The student council president surprised by the sudden random question seemed to have been debuffed of all her anger.
" What do you mean by that? " She asked not knowing what to reply to him
" Well bottom tier Npcs always stick to there roles and don't bother the playable characters so never imagined a situation were you talk to me, " he said.
He then add in a calm tone looking at the confused president, " surely they're must something wrong with your character settings. '
" my what?.... What are you talking about? "
She added after a deep sigh " You know what I don't have all day to deal with you I just wanted to let you know the principal wants to see you after school. "
Before Ren could speak Tatsuya interrupted, " so is that all? Miss President. "
As she moved her long black hair backwards while solely focusing her gaze at Ren
She said " Well there was more but... Well another time. "
" Alright cool thanks for the info... President Horimiya. " Ren said before walking away.
She said with looking mock offended with slightly red cheeks, " How Rude it's Horikita. "
" Sure Hoshikita. "
' I can't believe there is a student who doesn't know my name and keeps getting wrong it almost makes me think that he's doing it purpose. "
The student council was thought as she watched them walk away.
While practically fuming with a anger at Ren for getting her name wrong twice but she didn't drag it or more like she couldn't.
As they approached the shoe lockers Tatsuya, " Bro don't you know your own classmates name? "
" For a genius you can be slow sometimes, and no I didn't... but I do now. " He said in casual calm tone.
" Hey that was uncalled for.. please elaborate because I don't understand what you are trying to say. " Tatsuya asked and put on his indoor shoes.
" Her name is irrelevant, her approaching me is a build up for a new quest, "
" Hmmm bulld up, what do you mean? And don't we usually receive quests through our phones I don't understand... " Tatsuya asked as he was intrigued.
" I'm not talking about receiving quests, " he explained. " I'm talking about why I made a lasting impression so she'll remember me because it's out character for to talk to me and... "
Before he could finish explaining his phone buzzed, he took it out and saw a notification, it read.
" GET REJECTED BY THE NEW STUDENT STUDENT, +100 POINTS. "
A smirk was tugging at the corner of Ren's mouth as he thought, ' how interesting. '
