Chapter Fourteen (same)

"I can only imagine it's something like a Yorozuya or a wishing shop." To be honest, Hoshino Gokawa even felt that even if he told her the truth, she would still remain nonchalant, unless she went out drinking.

"Oh--------Why do you think so?" Upon hearing this, Ichihara Yuko showed him an interested expression.

"Shopkeeper, have you ever read comic books or light novels?" Hoshino Gokawa didn't turn around immediately, but instead asked the other person.

“I’ve seen it…” Yuko Ichihara nodded slightly.

After all, with so many modern devices at home, how could they not have seen them? Even if it wasn't something they were interested in, they would still glance at them at least once or twice.

"You probably haven't read much of the novels, store manager. If you had, you would have found that your own personality is very similar to those characters in the novels who follow the principle of equivalent exchange. They are all mysterious and say things that are hard to understand."

Then the ordinary people who enter the story will doubt your abilities, or simply not believe you at all. In the end, the villains will be tricked into becoming fools, while the honest and law-abiding people will be able to live peacefully.

Having read various online novels in his previous life, Hoshino Gokawa has read several books similar to those written by Ichihara Yuuko.

"I see..." It seems that Yuuko Ichihara was quite surprised by this news. She didn't expect that there were comics and novels online that described her situation.

"So let's forget about making a deal with you. Besides, there's almost nothing I can't do if I want to, and even if I can't, it's only temporary, because I believe in my infinite potential." As for improving his combat power, Hoshino Gokawa has plenty of ways, it's just a matter of whether he wants to do them or not.

After all, the ability to travel freely in countless universes alone indicates that his future achievements are unlikely to be low, because countless universes represent infinite possibilities.

"This is quite unexpected... I never imagined that my first customer in this world would be so special." After hearing these words, Ichihara Yuuko knew that today's business deal was off.

No! To be more precise, it means that the other party's business is completely disrupted.

"Can you tell me your name?" Yuko Ichihara got up from the sofa and came to Hoshino Gokawa, bowing slightly to look him in the eye.

"Hoshino Gokawa." He knew that just one name could reveal a lot of information about a powerful figure in the mystical world, but Hoshino Gokawa still said it in the end.

Ultimately, it's because the impression left by Yuko Ichihara in the anime is too deep, making it impossible for me to dislike her at all.

"This name..."

As expected, Yuko Ichihara frowned subconsciously after learning Hoshino Gokawa's name.

Hoshino Gokawa was not surprised by her reaction, after all, he had completely merged with Kalirus's soul, in other words, it was basically impossible to find clues by looking at the two separate names, Kalirus and Hoshino Gokawa.

Unless you connect them!

"Well then, store manager... I have to go back now. If I have time during the holidays, I'll come back to visit you again." With that, Hoshino Gokawa left with his bag.

"..."

Yuko Ichihara, watching his departing figure, thought for a while before returning to the sofa to smoke her pipe. If you looked closely, you would notice a faint smile playing on her lips.

On the other side -------------------------------

"Ah...ah...I never expected to run into Yuuko Ichihara from 'April 1st Paranormal Case Files' on my way out." Hoshino Satoru couldn't help but sigh to himself as he walked on the sidewalk.

"You... seem... to... care... a lot... about... her..."

Upon hearing what the other person was thinking, Kalirus suddenly spoke.

"Yeah... After all, that anime is one of my favorite old shows."

"I...don't understand..."

Kaliru wasn't very familiar with anime or anything like that.

"Speaking of Kalirus, do you have anything you like?"

"Things I like..."

"Yes, things I like."

"have no idea……"

"That's it..."

Kalirus's answer was exactly what Hoshino Gokawa expected. If he could, he would like to transform and let the other person come out for a while to look for something he likes.

Unfortunately, this is impossible, since Earth cannot withstand the turmoil of the Hero Race unless we go to the grand stage of the universe.

Fifteen minutes later -------------------------------

"Mom, I'm home!" Hoshino Gokawa greeted his mother as he returned home, carrying a bag.

"You're back, Goku! Are you cold?" Hoshino Sakurako, who had been worried about her child not returning home so late, finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the door open and Hoshino Goku's voice.

"The road was a bit difficult to travel, which caused a slight delay." It seems that Hoshino Gogawa had already come up with an excuse when he returned.

"Is that so...? Well, you must have had a lot of trouble."

"It's no trouble at all, it's what I should do." Hoshino Gokawa put the change on the table, took out a pen from the plastic bag, and went to his room.

Hoshino Sakurako, seeing her son return to his room, didn't say much. She simply got up and placed the salt and soy sauce in the usual spot when she cooked, then checked the time and, estimating it was almost ready, started cooking.

In the room...

After stuffing the pens into the pencil case, Hoshino Gokawa lay on the bed and started reading a comic book.

Thanks to her father being the deputy editor-in-chief of JUMP, the bookshelves in her room are filled with manga and light novels, in a ratio of about two to one.

An ordinary father wouldn't buy so many books unrelated to studying for his child, but Hoshino Gokawa's father was different; he worked in this industry and loved it.

That's why they recommend things they like to their own children.

Of course, the most important point is that Hoshino Satoru's grades have remained consistent, with all of them consistently scoring 88.

Even a fool could sense that something was wrong, let alone Hoshino Satoru's father.

So Hoshino Natsuhiko privately asked him if he could do even better on the test.

Hoshino Gokawa nodded at the time.

And then this is what happened: the room was filled with comic books and light novels.

As for the reason, Hoshino Natsuhiko asked him, and then he heard his son's extremely absurd answer.

"I don't want my presence to take away their motivation to move forward."

Chapter Fifteen: The New Class

"Hello! I'm your homeroom teacher and Chinese language teacher for the next year! My name is Inoue Miki! You can call me Inoue-sensei..."

"Okay... Inoue-sensei!" the students below the stage responded in unison.

Of course, not everyone spoke up. If the teacher had observed carefully, they would have noticed two students staring at each other with very strange looks.

"I never expected that we would be assigned to the same class this year." Hoshino Gokawa, who was sitting at the very back of the left, couldn't help but exclaim when he saw that Saiki Kusuo was sitting to his right.

"I was surprised too..." Saiki Kusuo's thoughts were also transmitted to the other person's mind.

However, there is a prerequisite for Saiki Kusuo to achieve this: Hoshino Gokawa must not be blocked by him. Otherwise, no matter how hard he tries, he will not be able to transmit his thoughts.

"Speaking of which, did you leak your aura again a few days ago?" Thinking of the vastness he felt while lying in bed a few days ago, Qi Mu Xiong Nan couldn't help but turn his head to ask him.

“That’s right…that was the last lesson I taught Takashi.” Hoshino Gokawa nodded slightly, not denying it.

"What kind of class?!" Upon hearing this, Kusuo Saiki couldn't help but feel curious. What kind of class could have caused the other party to release such an aura?

"The courage to charge into death." Hoshino Satoru couldn't help but smile as he thought of Natsume Takashi's performance at the time, seemingly quite satisfied with the outcome.

"He really went all out..." Even Kusuo Saiki, who had also felt that kind of aura, had to admire Takashi Natsume's amazing perseverance.

"Um……"

Did he ultimately succeed?

"Of course it was successful, otherwise I wouldn't be in such a good mood right now."

"Yeah……"

Upon receiving this result, Kusuo Saiki, unusually, fell into a daze, seemingly deep in thought.

Meanwhile, inside a building in the city, several movers were going in and out, carrying something.

"Dad... why are we here?" Looking at the passersby outside, a red-haired girl turned her head curiously to look at her father who was checking something inside.

“Because this city is safe… Chise. Now that we’re here, my family and I don’t have to worry about seeing those strange things anymore,” Chise’s father said to her in an extremely gentle tone, bending down.

"That's great!" The red-haired girl was so happy that she almost jumped up when she heard that she didn't have to worry about seeing those weirdos anymore.

Chise's father was also happy to see his daughter so happy, because he could finally relax. After all, he had hardly had a good night's sleep in all these years in order to protect his children and wife.

My nerves were practically on edge. If I hadn't overheard those strange guys saying that this place was a forbidden zone, a place where no strange guy dared to come, I wouldn't have made the decision to move my whole family here on my own.

Judging from the current results, this decision is undoubtedly good. The strange creatures that used to be everywhere have completely disappeared from this city. Not only this city, but the family didn't even see the stretch of road they drove on.

In other words, for people like them with special talents, this city is simply a safe haven where they can live a mundane daily life.

Hoshino Gokawa probably didn't expect that the aura he emitted would indirectly help others.

And it wasn't just this one family; other people in similar situations also came to settle here after hearing the news.

What these people didn't know was that some of the information was deliberately leaked to them by people from the other world, possibly in an attempt to detect something here.

Then it got to evening.

"Mom, are we having guests today?"

Upon entering, Hoshino Satoru saw the exquisite fruit gift box on the table and instinctively turned to look at his mother.

“Yes…a new family moved in next door today.” Hoshino Sakurako, who was cooking and couldn’t concentrate on her work, said to her son without turning her head.

"That's it..."

Hoshino Gokawa didn't pay much attention to the result and went back to his room with his schoolbag on his back.

After spending a minute finishing his homework, Hoshino Gokawa began reading light novels while lying in bed.

Sa... Sa...

The sound of turning pages continued until dinner time.

"Dinner's ready, Wuchuan."

"Oh, Mom's here."

……

Has Dad not come home yet today?

Hoshino Gokawa, sitting in his assigned seat, couldn't help but curiously turn his gaze to Hoshino Sakurako when he noticed that his father wasn't there.

"Your dad said he'll be very busy tonight, so he won't be home for dinner."

While gazing intently at the night outside, Hoshino Sakurako instinctively explained the reason after her son asked her a question.

"Yeah……"

Hoshino Gokawa responded softly and continued eating without saying anything more. Of course, this was only on the surface. If you could switch your perspective to him, you would find that Hoshino Gokawa's two eyes had different perspectives.

One was at home, and the other was in the bustling JUMP headquarters.

"Is this... an overnight sensation?"

Having taken in the bustling scene at JUMP headquarters, Hoshino Gokawa roughly understood what was going on. An unknown manga had suddenly become a sensation, and because it was so sudden, the headquarters had no stock prepared, so they had to work overtime to contact suppliers to replenish their stock.

Hoshino Gokawa even saw the manga through their computer, which has now caused a huge uproar online.

"Quick! Contact a new manufacturer! Try to print another 500,000 copies in the remaining time!"

"Yes, Deputy Editor!"

"Is Nishimura's new poster ready yet?!"

"Almost done, Deputy Editor!"

……

To be honest, Hoshino Gokawa was quite surprised that his father had such a strong side.

After finishing his meal, Hoshino Gokawa returned to bed to read comic books, keeping his eyes on both sides. With his left eye, he checked on his father's situation to make sure he could get home safely, while with his right eye, he read the comic book in his hand to pass the time.

Three hours later--------------------------------

"Shh!"

Hoshino Gokawa, having closed the comic book, switched his right eye to his father's side.

As for why it happened so suddenly, it was because he saw something trying to follow his father home.
