Chapter 8: Chapter 7: The Banging of Heads
Well, a part of my soul hurt her heart very much... the insatiable search for my mother ended up making me cold.
"Aqua, I wanted to ask you something very important and serious, I want you to be honest with me."
I ended up listening to this with a lump in my throat, and I watched her eyes waiting for her answer.
"You've changed a lot from yesterday to today, you're more expressive and... strange at the same time, always having a vision of something."
"I'm slowly getting over my grief, but I think it'll take me a while to get over it one hundred percent... and being a bit more expressive helps with that."
It went from 0 to 100 too quickly, where she described the way she was going today, and this lack of habit will always surprise her internally.
But there was something I needed to ask her: if she's still persisting with this goal... things might get a little easier for me and I can continue with my system development and social cycles.
"Ruby, can I ask you something too?"
"Hi? Ehhh... Go ahead, Aqua."
"Are you still trying to become an idol for some group?"
In my head, I feel that this question might generate something, so it wouldn't be difficult for me to carry it out.
Suddenly she looks down at the floor, her eyebrows slightly lowered... representing that she's a little disappointed about something.
"Humm..."
And it did, touching on a deeper part of her, I know that her dream has always been to be a successful idol like our mother was... but she needs to be inspired by this, and not be easily discouraged by attempts.
"Aqua."
"Say, dear sister."
"I'm trying really hard, sacrificing every bead of sweat on my brow and my strength from head to toe to get approved for some agency or group... it's so hard and I always do my best, you know?"
As I listened to this in detail, flashbacks ran through my head where I always ended up identifying with every word.
"I imagine, after what happened to us... it's notorious to keep trying, even with the past events, but it's not the main reason."
"It has an influence, I know that, but... it's not just because of that, I've always wanted to be an idol and be able to see that sultry smile of hers."
Suddenly she touched on a more detailed part... our mother's death was one of the main reasons she kept trying so hard to be an idol in our country.
"And these other reasons that you haven't mentioned to me, do they equate to our mother's main reason?"
"Not much, but it does have an impact, you know? Seriously... the entertainment scene has always been very problematic Onii-chan."
When we reached a crosswalk, the traffic light stopped, and we crossed the street to get to the school gate, which was already a few meters away.
Seeing it from afar is like seeing the beautiful Liyue landscape that I loved exploring in Genshin Impact when I was still strong and healthy in my past life.
It was a completely open campus with a great view of the distant but visible mountain... there were several different blocks, study blocks, dormitories, restaurants, stores, and leisure facilities such as a swimming pool, sports courts, and much more.
"Well, at least studying here is nice... I can always hone my idol skills in the gym where it's empty at certain times."
"I see... do you want something to eat later at the bakery just over the road?"
"Later Onii-chan, I really need to go fulfill my daily focus now... I'll catch up with you later, kisses."
I end up saying goodbye to Ruby for a moment with a kiss on the top of her head and a wave of my right hand... she heads off towards the study block.
- Beep Beep
"Hm? The system beeped, what does it want to tell you?"
[You're in a universal area, all the people you wished existed study at this college].
[Conditions: Be exemplary and outstanding, if you fail... your personal development will be more problematic and flawed, and in the end, people will know your intentions].
Intentions? He must be referring to my profound acts since the system has been appropriately adapted for these situations too.
As much as supernatural power is necessary, social power is also necessary to have at hand... and the first step is to meet other people on campus who I'm sure all the people I ended up wishing for in heaven are here... well, that's what I hope.
In the event, I ended up reflecting for a moment and remembered that the only people I know who might be here and others who aren't are Kotori and Origami Tobichii... since Reine Murasame doesn't frequent the campus here.
The rest are spirits and haven't caused anything yet, and I ended up deciding to look at my cell phone for a specific piece of information.
[Google Search: Are there underground facilities here in Japan?]
When I searched for an exact source, I was shown that some regions, which by the way are close to the school, 20 minutes away, have an underground facility to protect against imminent earthquakes.
So, yes, they haven't come down to our planet yet and no earthquakes have occurred in our region... so I'm going to rest easy about that and get to know the others, which I didn't want to have to do.
I didn't choose Boku no Hero precisely because it's much more complicated, but I think it'll be easier to interact here... although it's still a bit unpleasant to have to start from scratch and get to know the students here.
- Glitch...
The system opens before my eyes without letting me execute the open command myself, and it ends up leaving me with a serious and important notification.
[Percentage of Past Life Memories: 60%]
[Conditions: The more you remember past life and reincarnation heaven, the more these memories will fade and you'll have to make do with building new ones in this new world].
Well, I'll have to be more cautious about thinking the past... I'll use it more now in situations that will benefit me.
As I walked to the block where the students' lockers were, I tried to look for my locker to store my belongings, and when I found it... I found a familiar girl with blonde hair, green eyes, small height, and an air that brought enormous adoration to God.
"Ah? Hello? Need anything, kid?"
