Chapter 5

Right now Carlo’s mind is in chaos, he couldn’t process what Jin has told him. Anime world? Are you fucking high or something?

“As expected, you can’t just possibly believe that can you? Well, just keep in mind that this is an anime world and everything will make sense” Jin said. The way Jin said that is calm and relaxing, it’s like he’s gentle even though the situation is serious.

“…………..” “Until then, Kyoshiro-san” Jin said and then leave. Carlo wants to call out for Jin but he remains silent for some reason. He wants to ask Jin about many things but there’s something that’s holding him down. He didn’t know what it is, but it’s definitely holding him down.

Anime world? I have a hunch that this is might not be the world that I’m used to live. Then Carlo remembers the lost Otaku in the earth. It said that people after people starts disappearing, what if I’m one of them? But I get transported to an anime world?

Carlo found it odd that people around him act in a familiar manner and sometimes, he can even predict their action. But even if it is an anime world, how can he prove that? And why the hell anime world? Can’t I get transported to a parallel world where swords and magic are the things?

Carlo then look at the window, he can see the running clubs practicing. But that violet hair girl, Cassandra and the scariest one Yuki. Carlo starts walking, exiting their classroom.

The flag around Yuki one rises one after another, there’s no way that all of that is coincidence Carlo thought. Shit…. I don’t want to believe him but….I guess I should check it.

*************************************************************************************

“The first one is that violet hair girl” Carlo’s plan is that he will check if it’s true by knowing the background of the first three girl that he have met and talked in this place. He knows that this is the dumbest thing he has ever thought but this is the only thing he could think off.

“HAH! HAH! HAH!” The voices of men practicing with their bamboo sword can be heard outside the club. “Good! Just repeat it!” The girl with violet hair is shouting them. Because she’s the Captain, she supervises the practice if the coach isn’t there.

The door suddenly opened, and what enter inside surprise everyone in the room. Koutaro Kyoshiro the man who beat all the elites in a one sided battle shows up. The senior who battle with him is trembling in fear, because they experience his power first hand, their knees are shaking.

“If he’s here just to fight us….. Then were hopeless” One of them muttered. The junior who did not know the incident is only looking at them in confusion. “What’s happening?” They said.

“K-Kyoshiro-kun! Wh-what are you doing here?” The violet girl said in both nervousness and excitement, the nervousness is understandable but why the excitement?

“You said that you’re inviting me to join your club right?” “T-that! Ye-yes I certainly said that but…” The girl said in a sad tone. “Then, you win, I’m yours” Carlo said. “What! I-I mean why?” She asks energetically, it’s like she was not in a bad mood earlier.

“Why? Well I just thought that it would be a bad if I just waste my talent right?” He said. “I-is that all?” As expected, Sayaka will have a doubt in what Carlo said, because based on Kyoshiro’s personality, he would never do something like this just because his talent would be waste.

“What? Do you have a problem with that?” Carlo said in a rough tone. The elites behind them starts to shake but Sayaka kept her poker face. “I don’t have any problem with that, in fact that’s all I need to accept you” She stated. Sayaka thought that since Kyoshiro is submitting himself, she will take this chance to get him to the club.

“I, Tsubaki Sayaka here declared that, Koutaro Kyoshiro will be a formal member of the Kendou Club” “Wooh!” “Yey! We got a new member” Such comments can be heard by the other members that didn’t know the history between Carlo and Sayaka.

“So where’s the training start” Carlo said. “Today’s not gonna work, how about tomorrow?” Sayaka asked. “Then, I will be here tomorrow after class” Carlo said and then left the place.

“See you tomorrow” Sayaka muttered silently while brimming with happiness.

******************************************************************************************

“I know you’re there” Carlo said. “Hmhm, as expected” Cassandra shows up behind the building, though she’s a meter away from Carlo. “What? You’re still not giving up?” Carlo asked. “Of course, I always get what I want” She said in confidence.

“Your right, because from now on I am your personal body guard” “Even if I get rejected many times, my heart will not wave--- EH! Really! I mean, of course you’ll accept it” What a pain Carlo thought.

“But I have a condition, my duty will be after school” “After school? But I also study here” “Really? I didn’t notice. Then during school time and after my club, though on some occasion I can’t do the job because I have my personal things to do” Carlo said.

“Very well, we have formed the contract, and your job will start now” “Now? As in right now?” “Yes” Cassandra said as she’s heading to Carlo with a smile.

Since she has droopy eyes, the smile on her face looks cute but also feels out of place. “Can you tell me the reason on why the hell you wanted me as your body guard?” “That? After the time you helped me, I did a little research and found out that you are a delinquent. Because I have a golden heart, I decided that you shall be one of my guards but when the time that you beat my guards—”

“Underling” Carlo butted “Ku! B-by the time you beat my guards Uhum! ‘Elite Guards’ I thought that your talent is perfect for you to be my personal guard” She said.

“Wait, personal guard? That’s not what we have been agreed” “Is that so? I thought I emphasize the word personal” “I can’t remember anything about that” “Fumu, then we will check your head to the doctor”

Carlo finally reached his peak, he raise his arms as he plans to punch down the head of Cassandra but Cassandra warned him. “Please be careful on your action Kyoshiro-kun, please note that I have dozen of body guard besides you” “Bring it on” “Aw! My personal guard shouldn’t do that!” Cassandra cried as she touches her head.

Soon, the guards suddenly appear one after another, although their master was just attacked by a stranger, the will to fight is not in them. “I recognize you bastards” Carlo said. That’s right, this guards are the same bunch that Carlo had beaten.

And all of a sudden, Carlo was struck by a good idea. “Ahh, no need to be hostile. I am just doing what I think was right for our Oujo-sama” After Carlo said that, the guards suddenly look at him in confusion while the face of Cassandra is pale, perhaps she noticed the plan that Carlo is doing.

“I’m her personal guard remember? I thought that Oujo-sama needs to be taught a lesson because she acted in unrefined way” one of the guards nodded as he agrees to what Carlo had said.

“That’s right, in this way we don’t have to figh—We don’t have to worry” One of them said. And soon they all agreed. “Wait! It’s true that he’s my personal guard but I’m still your master right! Attack him, listen to me!” Cassandra desperately said but no one listen to her.

“That’s quite unreasonable Oujo-sama, why would you command them to attack a comrade?” “What! Hey listen to me!” She said, her droopy eyes were still there but it’s sparking with desperation. The guards soon leave the place making Carlo and Cassandra alone.

“N-no way, I was beaten in my own game” Cassandra said in a depress manners. “Stop whining, wait here for a bit” Carlo said. He then took out the smartphone on his pocket and dial something. “Hey Yuki, still alive?” Carlo asked.

“Ah! Kyoshironii-san, why did you call?” “I just want to check if there’s a weird happening there” “Umm….Oh the old man that always give me money asked me again to accompany him”

“Then? What did you do?” “I said no, then after that he tells me “Why did you refuse!?” He was angry about it but I told him that Kyoshironii-san told me to” She said.

“Good, did the old man say anything about me?” Carlo asked. “Yes, he was asking me saying “Who’s this Kyoshironii-san?” Of course I didn’t tell him” “Tell him” “What!? But the old man seems pretty angry about you Kyoshironii-san” “No, it would be hard if I have to find them one after another” “Ok…” She replied.

“Then that’s it, I will pick you tomorrow” “Yes!” Then the call ended. “Who’s that?” Cassandra behind Carlo asked him. “None of your business” He replied.

“Ehh… you’re too stingy for a personal guard” She said. “Enough about that, as a personal guard all I need to do is to protect you right?” Carlo asked. “Humhum, that’s where you are wrong Kyoshiro-kun, as a personal guard you will be in charge in some guards meaning you will have a subordinate, you will act as my personal butler, will do what I say and of course will change my clothes--!” All of a sudden, Carlo hit the head of Cassandra.

“Aw! That hurts!” “Changing clothes!? Then hire a maid dammit!” “But what I said is true!” “Really?” Carlo said in a serious tone. Cassandra gulped down and put on a broken smile and said. “W-well, the l-last thing that I said is not needed for me”

This girl… she’s hopeless Carlo thought. “I’m just wasting my time here” He muttered. He wanted to leave but Carlo is not that kind of person, maybe even Kyoshiro himself is like that since his body is rather acting calm today.

“Then, what are your plans for today” Carlo asked. Since it’s his first day on the job Carlo wanted to know what this girl is going to do. “Today, we will just attend a celebration party because a daughter of CEO of the worlds largest company should attend this kind of thing” She said, although she’s speaking with her usual tone, there’s a hint of sadness in it.

Carlo noticed this but decided to keep his mouth shut. It looks like every one of us had a different kind of problem He thought. “Well then” Cassandra said as she snaps her finger, a black limo suddenly appeared.

“But before that, you will change your clothes first. My personal guard should be look respectable” She said. “Tch, as long as you don’t touch my hair” Carlo said. “Is all men like that?” She asked.

“Just give me a spare clothes then I’ll be fine” He said. Because even in the past, Carlo didn’t really mind his appearance thus he’s always being bullied when he was in his elementary because of his attire.

“No, fine clothes should be given to fine men. We will visit a tailoring shop” She stated. Well, it’s not like I don’t want it or anything, if there was a gift then take it Carlo thought.

******************************************************************************************

In a room where everything is luxurious, a certain delinquent can be seen.

“Hey” Carlo asked. “Yes” Cassandra replied. “I know that we’re buying clothes, but why is it that I need to be measured?” “Well, we are just making sure that the suit will fit you perfectly” “This will take time, what will happen to the party” “That party? Well this thing is far more important” “I don’t really get you at all” Carlo muttered.

Earlier Cassandra said that it is necessary to attend the celebration party, but all of a sudden this thing is more important. Carlo didn’t know the fad amongst the high society so all he can do for now is listen to what this girl said.

“The measurement is now complete, the attire will be ready tomorrow” The man who’s measuring Carlo earlier stated. “With this it’s all complete” Cassandra said as she stands up from her sit. “Your work is done for today, I expect good thing from you Kyoshiro-kun” She added.

Carlo nodded. “Likewise Oujo-sama” He said. And the long and tiring day of Koutaro Kyoshiro finally ended.
