Epilogue (Arc1)


Speaking of the entrance ceremony, what kind of ceremony would you imagine? For a common Japanese person, it would be the blooming of sakura as if in celebration for the freshmen.


Indeed, the first thing that came up to my mind is sakura.


Speaking of [[Sakura]], it is a plant that has deep ties with Japanese culture. The picture of sakura trees blooming all at once always attracted people since long ago. They even held a banquet under the sakura tree.


I too like sakura. The beautiful petals that dance to the touch of the wind made us forget to blink, the fallen petals dyed the ground in sakura color and give off the haze of beauty. It might just be me but I also love gazing at the green trees The image of a lone green tree standing in a deserted place always invite the sense of nostalgia.


Incidentally, the sakura that is loved by the common Japanese people is also loved by Eroge and Galge.


There is a lot of games bearing [[sakura]] in its name, important events happen under the sakura tree and sometimes are even used as a heroine’s name.


Sakura also appeared in Magical Explorer. The protagonist of Magiero will commute to the academy by walking from his dorm to the academy via a road that is surrounded by sakura.


“Haa…..”


When I scout the way a few days ago, they were still just buds. But seem like they couldn’t bear the warmth of the past few days and started blooming. Many sakura trees planted on both sides of the road are in full bloom, I want to stop my feet and take my time appreciating it.


Yes, I want to take my time, if I have time that is.


“I couldn’t imagine that an event like that happened to me…….”


I look sideways at the sakura and proceed to the academy with quick steps.


I thought I left the house with enough time to spare. On the day of the entrance ceremony Marino-san and Nee-san got some preparation to do so they left the house two hours earlier and since Ludi seem like she got a place to visit she left one hour before me. Even if you slowly walk your way toward the academy it would only take ten minutes or so I left the house with that impression.


However, I can’t even see one student on the road which is the only one they have to take to commute from their dorm to the academy. Since the entrance ceremony has already begun, it would be strange instead if there is anyone present here.


Well, something just can’t be helped. Would you just ignore an old man who hurt his leg and just head to the academy?


“What a huge difference from the protagonist……”


The protagonist of [Magical Explorer] will bump into a girl(heroine) who has a slice of bread in her mouth at the entrance ceremony, laying down his foundation for his harem. Instead, I am the hero of an Ojii-chan(TLN: Grandpa). He was so grateful to me that I couldn’t feel bad about helping him though.


“What time is it now?”


I took out my smartphone to look at the clock and check the received message. I receive a message from Marino-san saying “I understand, take your time.” and it is accompanied by a lot of heart emoji and some illustrations that seem like modern art that try to look cute but failed miserably. Honestly speaking it was quite ugly.


I then check the time and nod.


“And here I am, trying to break the flag.”


In Magical Explorer, the first time the protagonist met Takioto Kousuke was during the entrance ceremony. After the oversleeping protagonist met the bread girl, he picked up her handkerchief. After that, he looked at the sakura trees and remembered the girl’s panties (it was sakura color). Yes, he begins his erotic recollection there. When he returned to his senses and head toward the academy the gate was already shut tight. That’s where Takioto Kousuke appeared. They cooperate and jump over the gate but soon found by a teacher who is also a sub-heroine and got scolded. The story was supposed to flow like that.


I intended to ignore that event but I never would have thought that I would be late.


“Well, how should I put this. Is this some kind of fate?… Rather, why does using the word man and fate together made it sound like THAT?”


I muttered, at the end of my line of sight a male student is at a loss.


In front of the academy gate, he has his arms folded, a black-haired man with neither a handsome or ugly face. He is wearing the academy uniform and carrying a bag with the academy emblem on it.


That plainness, That guy is the protagonist without a doubt.


Giving up, I walked over to him and intentionally let out a big sigh.


“Aa~aa, it closed already.”


I muttered it like a monologue while looking at the gate and sigh.


“Yo, are you a freshman too?”


The protagonist looks at me with a half-opened mouth.


Well, I understand his feelings. He should have already noticed from my word that I am also a freshman, but he must be confused about how I dressed despite being one. Even though I am a new student my shirt was unbuttoned, with a cardigan(My favorite) on top, loosened neckties with the tie pin sticking out of my pocket and a long stole wrapped around my neck. Comparing to me he would look like an honor student. By the way, the game’s Takioto Kousuke also gave off the same kind of feeling but instead of a cardigan, he would wear a paka and muffler instead.


(What is with this frivolous man…?)


Is probably what he is thinking right now. Well, I think so too.


“A, Ah, yeah.”


I nodded to him as he said that and show him the tie pin as its color is different for each school year.


“As you can see, I am a freshman as well.”


I said that in case he doesn’t notice it.


“Ehhh”


He let out the voice in confusion.


I ended up laughing at him. If he was a cute girl then I might fawn over him but I have no eye to spare for a charmless man.


Now then, what should I do? Since I’ve come this far, let’s just go with the original scenario. Just jump over the gate and got scolded, I don’t really hate that aromatherapy-sensei (sub-heroine) after all.


If that’s the case then let’s do that first. I want to at least try saying it once. It’s a shame since it’s the same line Takioto Kousuke used in the game but I will concede this time since it’s cool.


I give him a wide smile and a big thumbs up.


“I still haven’t given my name yet, right?”


I slowly turn the thumb toward myself while putting the other hand at my waist and puff my chest out.


Now let me say it, the declaration of war.


“The name is Takioto Kousuke, the man who will become this academy’s strongest.”
