The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri

Kato Megumi's light, airy voice rang out:

"Kiyono-kun, I've gained eight experience points."

“It seems the amount of experience points each person gains isn’t fixed.” Kiyono Makoto nodded slightly, stood up, and said, “As for whether there are any hidden patterns, I’ll leave that to Futaba to explore… Let’s go.”

"Kiyono-kun, go change your clothes first."

"..."

Kiyono Makoto was the first to get up, quickly wiped his body clean with a towel, and then walked to the side to wait silently.

A short while later, the Saint, having changed his clothes, strode over, his gaze quickly landing on Kiyono Makoto's chest:

"Kiyono-kun's collar is crooked..."

Kato Megumi tilted her pretty face slightly and naturally helped straighten the crooked collar.

Having just soaked in the hot spring, Saint's skin was fair and rosy, like a freshly peeled egg, giving off a delicate and supple feeling.

Kiyono Makoto's gaze subtly shifted downwards, landing on Saint's lips.

The girl's thin lips were slightly pursed, probably without lip balm, revealing a natural pale pink color. The lines were soft and clean, perfectly complementing her fair and clear skin, making her breathtaking.

My thoughts drifted away.

Kiyono Makoto suddenly recalled his trip to Hachijojima. During that trip, in order to complete the "pearl retrieval" mission, he encountered an unexpected danger at the bottom of the sea. In the emergency, he had artificial respiration.

Unfortunately, the situation was dangerous at the time, and I was too anxious to save people. Although it was our first kiss, it didn't leave me with any pleasant feelings. Looking back now, I can't help but feel a little regretful.

"...It's ready now."

Kato Megumi quickly straightened her collar, withdrew her hands, and prepared to back away.

Just as she made a move, a hand suddenly reached out and gently embraced the girl's soft, slender waist.

"Huh...?"

Kato Megumi tilted her pretty face slightly, looking up in confusion.

"..."

Kiyono Makoto didn't say anything, but silently lowered his head and moved closer.

Their eyes met.

Kato Megumi's expression remained as calm as ever, but a closer look revealed that the tips of her ears were noticeably red, indicating that she had guessed what Kiyono Makoto was planning to do.

But the saint did not struggle or resist; he simply looked over calmly until the very last moment when he unconsciously tilted his head slightly and his fingers unconsciously clenched Kiyono's sleeve... Clearly, he was not as calm as he appeared.

Their lips touched.

Feeling the burning heat on her lips, Saint's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she finally closed her eyes.

With a slight tightening of his arms, Kiyono Makoto pulled the visibly limp Saint into his embrace, then cautiously asked for more.

"Well......"

The sage's body stiffened slightly, and his tongue hurriedly tried to dodge inside, his movements clumsy and awkward. Unfortunately, his mouth was only so big, and he couldn't dodge it at all.

As her tongue was captured, Kato Megumi felt as if fireworks were exploding in her head, forgetting the existence of time. Only the scent of lavender laundry detergent and mint toothpaste on Kiyono Makoto's body was particularly clear.

A moment later.

With class time fast approaching, Kiyono Makoto reluctantly had to let Saint-class go.

"Huh...huh..."

The girl's rapid breathing immediately filled the air.

As it turns out, even a saint sitting atop the frosty sky would become breathless after a long time of kissing.

"Kiyono-kun has been gone too long... What if we're late?"

Kato Megumi's breathing gradually calmed down. She neither ran away in shame nor cursed arrogantly. She simply rested her forehead gently against Kiyono Makoto's chest and lightly grasped his chest with her fingers.

It can only be said that he truly deserves to be called a saint; he was able to maintain a calm and composed state of mind even in the face of a sudden kiss.

But upon closer inspection, one can see that the girl's earlobes and neck have all been tinged with a delicate crimson.

"Don't worry, I've estimated the time; otherwise, I wouldn't have stopped," Kiyono Makoto said gently. "If we go out now, we'll be just in time for class."

"Wow, that's amazing..."

Kato Megumi's voice was still slightly breathless, drawn out, and a little soft as she stated a fact in a declarative tone:

"Kiyono-kun is truly a master of time management."

Kiyono Makoto slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, thankfully his skin was extremely thick: "...I'll take it as a compliment."

Kato Megumi: "That's true."

Makoto Kiyono: "I suddenly want to kiss you again."

"No, no...!"

Kato Megumi's body tensed slightly, and she finally broke down:

"Hurry up and get out of here."

"..."

The space distorted slightly, and Kiyono Makoto and Kato Megumi appeared out of thin air in the storage room.

The moment I returned, the school bell rang.

"I told you the timing was perfect, didn't I?"

As Kiyono Makoto put away the snow globe, he said this.

"Hurry up and get to the classroom..."

Saintly looked up at you, her pretty face showing a rare expression of utter helplessness.

The two quickened their pace and hurried outside.

As soon as I opened the door, the figure of a blonde girl with pigtails came into view.

"Huh?"

Eriri's eyes widened, and she subconsciously stopped in her tracks. Looking in the direction she seemed to have just returned from the restroom, her golden twin tails swaying gently behind her. Her eyes held a hint of suspicion.

"You idiots, Kiyono and Kato... how did you two end up together?"

Kiyono Makoto coughed twice:

"This is a long story..."

Kato Megumi, on the other hand, said it casually:

"Um, the teacher has already appeared?"

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

Eriri glanced at the teacher walking around the corner, then quickly looked away and ran towards the classroom with small, quick steps.

Although I can now send my opponent flying with a single punch, I still feel an innate sense of being suppressed when facing my teacher.

The three quickened their pace and finally made it back to the classroom before the teacher.

"call......"

Eriri secretly breathed a sigh of relief, propped her chin up with her right hand, and secretly observed Seino Makoto and Kato Megumi out of the corner of her eye.

Something seems a bit suspicious... but Kato, whose presence is so faint, surely wouldn't raid someone's base, right?

A class passed by in a flash.

The bell rang to signal the end of get out of class.

The classroom erupted in noise as soon as the teacher left.

"Monday, the gold rush, is over in the blink of an eye, so fast!"

"I don't want to go to school, I don't want to go to school at all."

"I want to make a wish to the gods, that I can be on an endless loop during Golden Week!"

"..."

The students in the classroom, who had been watching the drama unfold, were all sighing and complaining; they were all suffering from post-holiday syndrome.

During this time, two male friends chatted with Makoto Kiyono, asking him what he had done during Golden Week.

After thinking it over carefully, Kiyono Makoto realized that going on a trip to Hachijojima with his senior, Eriri, to kill demons in Demon Slayer, and even going to another dimension to elbow evil spirits... these were all secrets that couldn't be told.

After chatting for a while, Kiyono Makoto took out his phone, preparing to tell everyone about buying the hot spring package.

A message pops up on the screen first.

Yukinoshita: "Kiyono, I have two pieces of news for you, one good and one bad. Which do you want to hear first?"

Makoto Kiyono: "I prefer to experience hardship before enjoyment, so let's hear the good news first."

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Hey, Kiyono is quite interesting. No wonder Yukino likes you."

No, when did Yukino develop feelings for me?

That kind of thing simply doesn't exist!

Yukinoshita: "Let's start with the good news... According to the information provided by Kiyono-kun, the authorities have located that evil player."

"So fast?"

Kiyono Makoto raised an eyebrow in surprise.

The procedures in Japan are too rigid and inflexible; I thought it would take at least ten days to half a month to catch up with the other party.

For example, the old man who fell into a ditch on the road was rescued after three months of effort, but unfortunately, he had already become a neutrino.

Now, only one day has passed, and they've already found that evil player—the efficiency is unbelievable.

Yukinoshita Haruno seemed to know what Kiyono Makoto was thinking and sent a message to explain:

"Among those who disappeared, one girl's father was a member of Congress."

"......I see."

Kiyono Makoto suddenly realized.

If someone has a special status, it's not surprising that their efficiency is so high.

Makoto Kiyono: "What's the bad news?"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "The bad news is that the evil player was very alert. After discovering the official pursuit, he decisively attacked ordinary students, creating chaos, and then took the opportunity to escape. He has now disappeared without a trace."

Makoto Kiyono: "......"

Good news, the prisoner's identity has been confirmed.

Bad news, they didn't catch them.

This is clearly forcing the target from the shadows into the light, which will undoubtedly make them act even more recklessly in the future.

"Wait, Yang Nai just mentioned students... Could that guy be a teacher?"

Makoto Kiyono quickly discovered the blind spot.

Yukino Yukinoshita: "That's right, the other person seems to be a professor at Tokyo Medical University."

Makoto Kiyono: "......"

This is what they mean by "knowing a person's face but not their heart."

Being a teacher is just a profession; it has nothing to do with a person's character.

Yukino Yukinoshita: "It's actually quite dangerous. I just went to medical school a couple of days ago. I might have brushed past that devilish teacher."

Makoto Kiyono: "How so?"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "I have a very close friend studying at that university, and I came to Tokyo to visit her."

"..."

Before we knew it, the school bell rang quietly.

When Kiyono Makoto checked the time, he realized that the entire break between classes was over.

Yukino Yukinoshita truly lives up to her reputation as a master of social interaction, effortlessly controlling the pace of the conversation and making time fly by.
