66-Episode 65




"Here or ......

 After school, I came to a school building that I don't usually stop by.
 It was because I wanted to hear about a club called the "Life Keiken" in the booklet that I had seen with Ryo and the others about the club activities in this school.
 I was a little nervous because the club room was in a place where we never came for classes.
 I can see the light through the frosted glass, and using my "sense of presence" skill, I can sense the presence of only one person in the room, so I'm sure there won't be anyone there.
 I knocked on the classroom door and heard a woman's voice from inside.

Hmm? Come in.
"Oh ......, excuse me .......

 I walked in and saw the woman who must be the owner of the voice, elegantly sipping tea from a teacup and reading.
 The woman had her long black hair pulled back into a single bun and was wearing glasses that made her look very intelligent. No, she didn't look intelligent just because she wore glasses, but because the atmosphere she wore was different from that of a petty bourgeoisie like ...... me. If anything, I sensed the atmosphere of a noble being, like Kaori. I'm not sure if I should say "upper class" or not. Anyway, it seems that the world she lives in is different from mine,......, but I'm biased.
 In fact, the way she was drinking tea was very elegant, and my first impression was that she seemed to be a smart person.
 Then the woman saw me and opened her eyes slightly.

You're ...... ah, you're the new student we've been talking about.
What? Do you know me, ......?
I don't care if you know me or not, you're a celebrity at this school. You're famous in this school. You played a big role in the baseball team's practice game just the other day, didn't you?
No, that's not true. ......

 I was shocked at the fact that the woman knew such a thing, even though the baseball practice game she was talking about was really just the other day.

I was shocked at the fact that they knew about such a thing. So what? What do you want to do in this club room?
Ah, ......, well, is this the club room of the Life and Economics Institute?
Of course.
Actually, I'm interested in the activities of the Institute of Life and Longevity, and I was wondering if I could visit .......
"What?

 The moment I said that, the woman leaned forward and her eyes lit up.

Are you sure you're interested in this club activity?
Yes, I am. I don't really have a specific thing that I want to do at the moment. ...... I thought that I could experience a lot of different things in this club, so I thought I'd take a look around. ......
"Hmm ......

 After hearing my words, the woman began to think about something.

I've heard a lot of rumors that he can do anything. ...... Conversely, it's because he can do anything that he's in a situation where he doesn't know what he wants to do... ...
"Oh, um, ......?
Hmm? Oh, I'm sorry. So, about your visit to ......, of course, you're welcome.
Thank you very much.
Well, let's see what you're doing.
What?
Wait a minute.

 I was surprised to hear the woman's words, as I had been drinking tea earlier and thought she was taking the day off.
 Despite my surprise, the woman moved to another room.
 She asked me to wait for her, so I quietly waited for her in the club room, and then she came back wearing a jersey instead of her school uniform.

I was told to wait in the club room. I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but you can change into something more comfortable. If you don't have gym clothes, I can lend you some from the club room.
"No, no, I have gym clothes. Just what is this ...... thing that you do?
That's for when you get there.

 The woman smiled lustily at my question.
 The woman then turned to me as if remembering something.

The woman turned to me as if remembering something. I'm Reina Ichijo, the head of the 'Life Sutra Institute'.
"Oh, I'm Yuuya Tenjou!
I'm Yuuya Tenjou! As soon as you change your clothes, we'll get going.

 I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it's a good idea.

I'm not sure what to say.

I'm not sure what to make of this, but it's a good idea.

 It's a great way to get to know your fellow students.
 I'm not sure why, because .......

It's not just this, though. It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your time and money. Oh, Yuuya. There's some garbage over there.
"Yes, sir.

 As the name implies, the "Life Keiken" is a club activity designed to provide a variety of experiences, and the one I'm currently experiencing with Ichijo-senpai is a street cleaning activity.
 In the beginning, when I was made to change my clothes, I was wondering how much I would have to move,......, but it turned out to be the right decision to change my clothes.

I'm sure you'll be glad you did. ...... It's a lot easier when you work together.
I'm not sure. Do you always clean alone?
"Well, yeah. I'm the only one in the club, after all. I'm the only one in the club. Unless I'm asked to do something, what I do is basically volunteer work.
"Requested?

 When I twisted my neck at this unfamiliar word to high school students, Ichijo explained.

Basically, we do a lot of volunteer work, but sometimes we get requests from kindergartens to do storytelling or something. Some of them even ask me to do a show. ...... Unfortunately, we don't have anyone who can do a show in our club at the moment. I've had to turn down such requests with tears in my eyes.
"You're really doing a lot of work, aren't you ......?

 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.

I'm not done yet. If it were true, we would like to go to various places to sell our products, but we don't have the people with the skills to do so. I thought that if we could find someone with various skills, we could team up with him or her and get a lot of experience, as the name of the club suggests. ......

 At first, I wondered why this club with only one member was still in existence, but I guess Ichijo-senpai's steady efforts and social contributions have been recognized, and this is how it remains.
 I've been impressed ever since, but there's something else that's been bothering me since a while ago.

"Um, Ichijo-senpai.
"Hmm? What's wrong?
I'm being followed by a few people. Do you know anything about ......?
Do you know what is?

 I'm not sure what to make of it.
 In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.
 At first, I thought it was just a misunderstanding and didn't pay attention to it. ...... While we stayed here cleaning, these people didn't show any signs of leaving and seemed to be watching us from a distance. Did I do something wrong?
 Of course, the reason I was able to notice this was because I had the [Sense of presence] skill that I acquired in the other world, but if I didn't have that skill, I wouldn't have noticed it. If I didn't have that skill, I wouldn't have noticed it. That's how good he is at hiding his appearance and maintaining an exquisite sense of distance.


 I'm not sure what to make of this.

I'm sure you'll be able to understand why I'm here. I never thought I'd recognize them. ......
What? I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.
I'm not sure. But don't worry about it. It's harmless.
Ha, ha. ......

 If you're looking for the best way to get the most out of your business, then you're in the right place.
 But if something happens to Ichijo-senpai, we should at least be alert.
 With that in mind, I continued to pick up the trash.
