Sawada Tsunayoshi's information left Totsuka speechless. Logically, he was a key character specifically highlighted by the system, but this evaluation was incredibly low, completely insignificant compared to Hibari Kyoya. Although there was an "unknown" rank after his attribute evaluation, his current attribute was only G-rank—far too low. However, seeing the young boy's blushing, lowered head after seeing him before, Totsuka felt happy to have met such an innocent boy.

Looking towards the back rows, I noticed a boy with short black hair and brown eyes. The boy had a very cheerful smile, and when he noticed Toki's gaze, he returned a bright smile. He seemed like a very energetic and athletic young man. Naturally, I also checked his information.

Name: Takeshi Yamamoto

Sex: Male

Overall attribute rating: D (unknown)

Abilities: Exceptional athleticism, decent baseball skills, and the Rain attribute of Calm (not yet activated).

Seeing Yamamoto Takeshi's information made Totsuka think that this boy should aim for Koshien; he seemed like a model young man. Fortunately, the task the system gave him this time wasn't too difficult, and he was quite willing to make friends with Yamamoto Takeshi.

"Totsuka-kun, you can sit in front of Sawada Tsunayoshi." The homeroom teacher looked at the classroom seating arrangement, and there was a reason for it. Sawada Tsunayoshi's entrance exam results were really bad, and having Totsuka-kun sit next to him would help him. Besides, sitting in the front is a special case for good students. "Sawada Tsunayoshi, raise your hand. Totsuka-kun, please tidy up the seating."

"Thank you." Totsuka nodded and walked towards the somewhat shy boy. The surrounding classmates had already spontaneously placed new desks and chairs in front of Sawada Tsunayoshi. Totsuka thanked the classmates who helped before taking his seat. As soon as he sat down, he quickly stuffed his tacky Pleasant Goat backpack into his desk and took out the textbooks he needed.

Totsuka could vaguely hear the students around her saying things like, "Ugh, how did the teacher put me in front of Tsuna, the loser?" and "Honestly, I wish he were sitting next to me!"

Hearing these words, Totsuka frowned. It seemed that Sawada Tsunayoshi wasn't popular in the class? He was clearly a very cute kid, so why was he given the nickname "Useless Tsuna"?

He calmed himself, opened the book to look at the content, and with his memory and comprehension, he quickly grasped the material. This level of knowledge was really easy for him. Tokugaku breathed a slight sigh of relief; he didn't want to worry about studying anymore.

Almost no one was paying attention in class; most of the students' attention was focused on Totsuka Tatara. Seeing Totsuka studying diligently, a faint smile on her delicate face, many were momentarily stunned. The girls in the class were especially excited; if it weren't for class, they probably would have taken some photos to keep as souvenirs.

Sawada Tsunayoshi, sitting behind Totsuka Tatara, was naturally one of those secretly observing. When he saw the new student, he thought he was truly beautiful, even though the word "beautiful" seemed a bit inappropriate for a boy. Especially when he smiled, it made everyone who looked at him feel warmth. When those eyes were fixed on him, he was momentarily stunned. He then felt embarrassed, but couldn't help thinking, "What a kind person." When the teacher assigned him to sit in front of him, he couldn't contain his joy. The classmates called him "Useless Tsuna" because he couldn't do anything right, and even Sasagawa Kyoko hadn't paid him any attention. Thinking about it made him feel frustrated. He hoped that the new student wouldn't dislike him and that they could become friends, Sawada Tsunayoshi thought to himself.

The homeroom teacher didn't seem to care much that not many students were paying attention in class. After the bell rang, he dismissed the get out of class and asked Takeshi Yamamoto to introduce the courses to the new students and let them choose which club they wanted to join.

Because of the homeroom teacher's arrangement, Totsuka was able to strike up a conversation with a boy named Yamamoto Takeshi. Even though he was surrounded by people, it couldn't dampen his good mood. So, when he faced Yamamoto Takeshi, he naturally smiled brightly and said, "You're the Yamamoto-kun the teacher was talking about. Thank you for your help."

“No trouble at all, I’d be happy to do it.” Yamamoto Takeshi laughed cheerfully, looked around at the people, and said, “Totsuka is very popular, so I’m sure many people would be willing to take on my job.”

Totsuka smiled somewhat awkwardly. Actually, this was the first time he had met someone so enthusiastic, but he felt even more excited about the school now. "Yamamoto-kun, I'm also very happy to be studying in this class. It's clear that everyone here is a very nice person."

Yamamoto Takeshi's eyes lit up, and his smile widened. "In my opinion, Totsuka, you are a very special person. It seems that even listening to you speak is a pleasure."

"Yamamoto-kun!" Totsuka blushed slightly upon hearing such a direct compliment. The surrounding chatter also reached his ears.

"Ah, Totsuka-kun is blushing!"

"They're so cute, I can't take it, I'm going to faint!"

"Although I'm not as exaggerated as you, I still think they're really pleasing to the eye!"

"Haha, Totsuka's reaction is so cute!" Yamamoto Takeshi laughed heartily, then reached out and patted Totsuka's shoulder, his eyes bright. "Can I call you Tatara? In the same way, you have to call me Takeshi!"

For some reason, looking at Yamamoto Takeshi so earnestly, Totsuka really couldn't refuse his suggestion. He thought to himself, "His eyes tell me that he really wants to be friends with me." He nodded emphatically, "Okay, Takeshi."

The surrounding noise erupted again, and many girls stared intently at the two of them, saying, "Ah, Yamamoto-kun is so good at seizing opportunities! He's already become friends with Totsuka-kun so quickly!"

"Hehe." Yamamoto Takeshi waved his hand, but his smile never faded. "That's because Tatara is a very nice person. I'm also very happy to know Tatara!"

Totsuka watched as Yamamoto Takeshi was playing and joking around with everyone. Takeshi was very popular, and it was clear that everyone liked him.

[Congratulations, host, for completing the task in a short time: Become friends with Takeshi Yamamoto. Task reward: One jar of stamina-restoring pills (already placed in the system inventory), 500 points]

The system's reminder made Totsuka realize that this boy had accepted him as a friend in such a short time. It was truly wonderful to experience high school life like this and meet different people.

"Tatara, our curriculum consists of the basic courses that every junior high school has, including Japanese language, math, physical education, crafts, home economics, and so on. Our school also has clubs like boxing, soccer, baseball, literature... I'm in the baseball club." Takeshi Yamamoto took out the list that the teacher had handed him before leaving and placed it in front of Totsuka. "You can choose a club that interests you and participate in club activities, which are linked to your academic credits. I recommend you join the baseball club!" After saying that, he gave a thumbs up to show that he was very welcoming.

"Baseball..." Totsuka nodded, glancing apologetically at Yamamoto Takeshi. "Takeshi, I don't know how to play baseball at all, but I really enjoy watching baseball games. I'm looking for a club that doesn't take up too much time. Do you have any club recommendations, Takeshi?"

"Not taking up time?" Takeshi Yamamoto thought with some trouble. "I'm not really sure about the schedules for other club activities."

"Totsuka-kun, if you're looking for a club that doesn't take up too much of your free time, I recommend our club!" A girl with light chestnut hair immediately ran out and pointed to a spot on the list. "Our fashion design club rarely takes up our free time. We only hold club activities during school festivals or events. The main activities are just making and designing clothes that we like. I'm the vice president of the fashion design club, so if Totsuka-kun wants to join, I can approve it right away!"

Totsuka was very satisfied with the introduction of the girls' club and immediately nodded, saying, "Thank you so much. I'll join the Fashion Club then." After saying that, she put a checkmark next to the Fashion Club.

The girl with light chestnut hair smiled and extended her hand to Totsuka Tatara. "Totsuka-kun, nice to meet you from now on. My name is Kobayashi Sachiko."

Totsuka naturally extended his hand as well, giving it a light shake before letting go. To be honest, he was still a little uncomfortable being in contact with a girl. Of course, he would never admit that he was just shy. "Kobayashi-san, nice to meet you."

A group of girls nearby started laughing and joking, "Sachiko-chan is so good at seizing opportunities! We also hope Totsuka-kun can join our club!"

After filling out all the required sections of the form, I handed it to Yamamoto Takeshi. During this break between classes, I had become familiar with most of the students.

The students in Class 1-A also found that Totsuka was a very easy person to get along with during their conversations, and that talking to him was very pleasant. Almost everyone thought to themselves: It's so great that Totsuka was assigned to our class!

Although Kyoko Sasagawa and Hana Kurokawa didn't interact with Tatara Totsuka, they both liked the new classmate. Hana Kurokawa propped her head up and said to her friend, "Kyoko, I thought there were only a bunch of immature boys in our class. I didn't expect there to be another nice one. It's just a pity he's a bit young."

Kyoko Sasagawa was voted the most beautiful girl in Namimori after enrolling in the school. She was cute, cheerful, and very popular. She agreed with her friend's opinion, saying, "Kyoko, I think... Totsuka-kun's smile is really very warm."

In conclusion, Totsuka Tatara's enrollment has been very smooth so far.

Chapter 10010 Two Friends Arrive

The morning's classes ended quickly. Having satisfied their curiosity, the classmates weren't paying as much attention to Totsuka Tatara as they had at the beginning, which relieved Totsuka. He knew being constantly stared at was quite awkward. Totsuka thought for a moment; he'd barely had a chance to greet Sawada Tsunayoshi, who sat behind him, all morning, and then been surrounded by questions during break. He couldn't waste his lunch break! He clenched his fist!

As soon as the bell rang to end the morning classes, many people either went to the convenience store to buy food or took out their bento boxes from home to call their friends and go eat together. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Totsuka immediately turned around and greeted the seemingly timid boy behind him, "Um... hello, I haven't gotten to know you properly yet. My name is Totsuka Tatara, what's yours?"

"Sawada... Sawada Tsunayoshi..." Sawada Tsunayoshi was surprised that Totsuka would greet him first, and he became nervous for a moment. He stood up and was about to bow when he said, "Y-you...hello, nice to meet you!"

Totsuka smiled, pleased with the boy's gesture, and waved his hand, saying, "No need to be so polite. After all, we'll be good friends sitting at adjacent desks from now on. Can I call you Tsuna? And you can call me Tatara."

Looking at the person with a gentle smile in front of him, Sawada Tsunayoshi's initial tension gradually subsided, and he nodded and smiled, "Mm."

"Tsuna's smile is so beautiful!" Totsuka couldn't help but exclaim. Sawada Tsunayoshi's timid expression disappeared, and his smile was as clear as the sky. He was such an innocent boy. What connection could such a boy have with the mission mentioned by the system?

Sawada Tsunayoshi blushed instantly at Totsuka's words, waving his hands frantically, "Tatara, my... your smile... is truly beautiful!" Even though the boy before him had delicate features and a warm smile, making him feel peaceful and comfortable in his presence, hearing such praise filled Sawada Tsunayoshi with a mixture of happiness and a touch of insecurity. Could he, known as 'Useless Tsuna,' really be friends with someone so dazzling?

"By the way... Tsuna, did you bring a lunchbox?" Totsuka stopped teasing Sawada Tsunayoshi. He took his lunchbox out of his bag and winked. "Let's find a place to have lunch!"

"Is Tatara going to lunch with Tsuna?" A voice came from behind Totsuka, and the person put their arm on Totsuka's shoulder, deliberately sounding a little aggrieved. "I just became friends with Tatara today, and I was thinking of asking you to have lunch with me!"

Totsuka didn't turn her head, but the smile on her lips widened a bit more. "Awu, I was just about to call you. Since you're here, let's go eat together."

Upon hearing this, Yamamoto Takeshi immediately broke into a hearty smile and said to Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was looking down, "Tsuna, come along too! I brought some special nigiri sushi from home, let's all eat together!"

Tatara Totsuka nodded, and seeing Sawada Tsunayoshi take out a bento box, he immediately reached out and grabbed his hand, then followed Takeshi Yamamoto to find a place to eat. Seriously... why is Sawada Tsunayoshi so timid? Boys should be more outgoing!

Sawada Tsunayoshi secretly glanced at the hand held by Totsuka. The initial thought of backing out that had arisen from seeing Yamamoto Takeshi and Tatara getting along so well was immediately replaced by a strong determination. After all, he really... really wanted to be friends with this person, and he couldn't help but feel happy. The warmth from the palm of his hand reached his heart, and gradually he had the thought of 'I really don't want to let go'.

Seeing this, a few students in the class couldn't help but say, "That good-for-nothing Tsuna is so lucky! He's having lunch with Yamamoto-kun and Totsuka-kun. I wish I could be with them too!" "I can't believe Totsuka-kun, who just arrived, has already been kidnapped! Waaaaah..."

Totsuka clearly felt the pressure on his hand loosen considerably, so he immediately tightened his grip on Sawada Tsunayoshi's hand and addressed the group of people who were whispering, "Tsuna is my friend, and I enjoy spending time with him. I also hope that you all won't dislike my friend, otherwise I will be very sad." Totsuka was unusually serious, and anyone could hear the earnestness in his words.

Yamamoto Takeshi immediately wrapped his arm around Totsuka and ruffled her smooth hair. "Sigh... I was the one who became friends with Tatara first. It's really making me a little jealous that Tatara said that."

Totsuka could tell from Yamamoto Takeshi's tone that he wasn't angry, but just teasing him, so he naturally replied, "Takeshi is also my good friend, just like me!"

Takeshi Yamamoto smiled, and those who were chattering a little further away waved their hands and quickly said to Totsuka, "Totsuka-kun, that's not what we meant."

“Useless... no... Sawada-kun, we don’t hate you that much.”

"That's right, that's right..."

Totsuka felt his hand being gripped tighter, and he stopped keeping a straight face, revealing his usual smile. "Hearing everyone say that is wonderful... I knew coming to Class A for the first year was the right decision."

Hearing Totsuka say that, everyone naturally became happy. Yamamoto Takeshi also happily followed Totsuka out of the classroom and introduced, "Tatara, there are some cherry trees in the school, and the scenery is quite nice. Let's go there to eat."

Totsuka had no objections and pulled Sawada Tsunayoshi along. Many cherry blossoms were already in bloom on the school's cherry trees; the island nation's famous cherry blossom festival should be held soon. Sitting on the grass, Totsuka saw Yamamoto Takeshi open his lunchbox, which contained exquisitely made nigiri sushi that looked quite delicious. Sawada Tsunayoshi's lunchbox contained handmade dango and rice balls.

Seeing the two people looking at his lunchbox with expectant eyes, Tokuzuki couldn't help but smile and opened it. As expected of a lunchbox produced by the system, the food was steaming hot and looked like it had just come out of the pot, and the aroma of the dishes almost immediately wafted out.

"Wow, Tatara's bento looks delicious!" Takeshi Yamamoto's eyes lit up, and he pushed his sushi towards Totsuka. "Can I try Tatara's bento?"

Totsuka glanced at Sawada Tsunayoshi, who seemed quite interested in his food, and pushed the bento box in front of them, smiling as he said, "If you don't mind, please try it."

Sawada Tsunayoshi immediately pushed his own bento box in front of Totsuka and said somewhat shyly, "Um... this is a bento box my mother prepared for me. Tatara, you should try it too."

Just as they were enjoying the beautiful atmosphere and preparing to savor their food, Totsuka sensed a chilling aura emanating from him, which seemed... somewhat familiar.

"Herbivores...gathering...biting and killing!" Upon hearing these familiar words, Totsuka immediately recognized the voice as that of the Disciplinary Committee Chairman he had encountered that morning—Hibari Kyoya!

Sawada Tsunayoshi's reaction was the most obvious. He immediately shrank back a few steps, his face completely looking like he was about to cry, and he called out in a trembling voice, "Hibari-senpai!"

Yamamoto Takeshi simply scratched his head, revealing his usual smile, "Oh, it's Hibari!"

Totsuka immediately thought of his mission: to provoke Hibari Kyoya. This seemed like a good opportunity! So he simply looked up at Hibari, who was approaching and seemed about to make a move, and asked with some doubt, "Hibari-kun, we're about to have lunch. Would you like to join us?"

Sawada Tsunayoshi was almost terrified by Totsuka's words. Hibari-senpai was such a terrifying person; he would usually bite and kill any herbivores he had the chance to eat. Today, he was so unlucky that Hibari-senpai saw them all gathered together. They were sure to be bitten to death! But Tatara didn't seem to notice how critical the situation was at all, and Yamamoto didn't seem to care at all either. What should they do?!

Hibari Kyoya also noticed that among the people gathered together was a freshman named Totsuka Tatara, who had only arrived that morning. He had already drawn his cane and looked at the bento boxes in front of the group. "Are these herbivores gathering together, or are they provoking me?"

Upon hearing Hibari's words, Totsuka Tatara's smile deepened, and his tone became gentle, seemingly unconcerned about Hibari's menacing aura. He picked up his own bento and handed it over, saying, "Hibari-kun, have you not had lunch yet? This is a bento I made. Please have some if you don't mind!"

Lark frowned, then a smile crept onto his handsome face as he thought of something. He scoffed, "Herbivore, I'll let it slide this time. Hurry back to class!"

Having said that, he put away the floating cane, naturally picked up the ten bento boxes that were handed to him, raised an eyebrow slightly, and turned to leave.

"Hibari-kun, please return my lunchbox after you finish eating. If you want to eat again tomorrow, I'll bring you some!" Totsuka said from behind Hibari, her tone slightly amused. "Thank you for your hard work checking discipline, Hibari-kun!"

The slender Hibari seemed not to have paid attention to what Totsuka had said and quickly disappeared from their sight.

Totsuka communicated with the system in his mind, "System, help me check how well the mission to provoke Hibari Kyoya is progressing?"

[Host, you have successfully completed the side quest "Provoke Hibari Kyoya three times without being bitten to death". Completion rate: 1/3. We hope you will continue your efforts to avoid punishment.]

It seems that what I did just now went well? Totsuka's smile deepened. For that seemingly awkward Hibari boy, provoking him didn't seem so difficult.

【...】

The system remained silent in response to Totsuka Tatara's thoughts. Young man, even the system has to admit that sometimes you are truly amazing.

Sawada Tsunayoshi gasped for breath and sat down on the ground with a thud. His gaze towards Totsuka Tatara was almost filled with disbelief. "Tatara, how dare you talk to Hibari-senpai like that, and Hibari-senpai didn't bite us to death!"

"Tatara is indeed a very special person!" Yamamoto Takeshi smiled heartily, as if this little incident had no effect on anything. "It's just that I can't have Tatara's bento..." He clearly felt a bit resentful when he said this.

Totsuka looked apologetically at Yamamoto Takeshi, "Takeshi, I'll definitely make more tomorrow, so you can have some."

"The food smells so good..." Sawada Tsunayoshi seemed to remember something, his eyes brightening. "Did you really make this yourself, Tatara?"

Totsuka nodded, then sighed somewhat helplessly, "But my lunch is gone..."
