The Mob Character Who Woke Up!-Chapter 72: Plans for a better future! (2)

After a long moment of mental preparation and deep breathing, he finally looked down at the second trending topic and heaved a massive sigh of relief that shook his entire body.

#2. Notable first years and their chosen stream.

120m views | 33m comments

It was a completely normal trending topic. Thank god for small mercies in this cursed world. He wiped a nervous bead of sweat from his forehead.

Obviously this trending topic was normal too, because after the main four powerful first year students, it was the other genius students’ turn to shine in the spotlight.

It was only natural their view counts were high too since all the potential recruiters knew they would never be able to get the Four Heavenly Kings under contract, so they could potentially get people who could rival them instead as consolation prizes.

Kaizen was genuinely glad that everybody’s stream selection list was finally out in the open because now he could calmly assess them all and make proper preparations about how to successfully avoid all of them for the next three years.

’With the complete timetable in my hand, I could just weasel my way out of ever meeting them again.’

’Hopefully the curse of being near main characters will be completely gone by then and I can live in peace.’

He sighed once more and shook his head in a relaxed manner.

It was genuinely nice to actively avoid any discomfort and live a complete slacker life without drama. Such a peaceful life was what was truly worth fighting for in this chaotic world.

Hopefully there would not be anymore main characters that he would randomly encounter other than Klaus himself, which was unfortunately unavoidable since the demon was literally his assigned roommate by cruel fate.

’Hmmm, I will definitely make that stupid drunk professor of mine change my room assignment far away from that cursed room and that demon as soon as possible.’

Then a sudden brilliant idea struck him like lightning from the heavens!

’What if I somehow convinced Leo to move into the room with Klaus! He he he. That would be an absolutely chaotic movie to watch from a safe distance with popcorn!’

With Leo physically in the same room, Klaus would definitely hesitate to openly use his dark magic and his evil plans of summoning more of his demonic brethren would be completely halted knowing that Leo was genuinely capable of going neck to neck against Klaus in a serious fight.

That strategy would surely save Kaizen from so many future hassles and potential death scenarios.

’Wha! What a brilliant idea that is! Fuu fuu, I am honestly so smart sometimes it scares me.’

Kaizen was feeling particularly happy now with his genius strategy that would solve multiple problems.

He truly was in a genuinely good spirit for the first time today. And he was absolutely sure it was specifically because he was currently far away from any of the main characters and their chaos fields.

He could feel his constantly worrying heart was now calm and happy. That was definitely a good sign for his mental health. One should always prioritize their mental health over anything else after all, especially when living in a world trying to kill you. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Kaizen closed his eyes peacefully and recited his new personal mantra like a meditation chant.

’No encountering any main characters. Phew.’

He repeated it mentally several times with conviction.

’No encountering the main characters.’

He felt his soul genuinely nourishing itself like a plant getting water, his body becoming more peaceful and relaxed with each repetition. Then with a small satisfied smile spreading across his face, he opened his eyes, only to immediately see Princess Rina Valentina jogging directly across his vision, just five meters away from where he was sitting.

Her long silver hair that was tied in the middle to form a high ponytail swished rhythmically with each athletic step. Her fitted leggings and crop top clearly accentuated her toned body, and with sweat glistening all over her face and exposed skin from her evening run, it made Kaizen’s face become bright hot red like a tomato.

At that exact moment, their eyes met for a brief second that felt like an eternity. Her cold violet pupils locked directly onto his shaking dull crimson pupils for what felt like time had stopped before she straightened her expression into that familiar cold mask and jogged away without acknowledging his existence.

Kaizen exhaled a foul breath and just completely slumped down on the bench like a deflated balloon.

All the calmness, all the peacefulness, all the serene feeling he had just carefully accumulated over the past hour was violently gone, just like that! How could this even be scientifically possible?!

’It absolutely must be my cursed luck stat actively working against me! There is literally no other logical explanation for this pattern. The negative five status is actively affecting my everyday life in the worst ways possible. Shit!’

Unless someone was basically running some kind of elaborate conspiracy specifically designed to make his life as miserable as humanly possible, this was only realistically possible because of that terrible bad luck stat of his working overtime!

Kaizen looked up at the beautiful blue moon hanging in the night sky and sighed once again like his soul was leaving.

All his previous enthusiasm was completely gone like smoke, and he just absentmindedly looked back at his phone screen to distract himself.

Immediately his lips began to tremble uncontrollably. A soft broken laugh came out of his mouth, then stopped abruptly, then came out once again as he locked his horrified eyes onto the third trending tag.

Kaizen stared at the screen in disbelief.

The view count had nearly tripled since he last checked it.

His eye twitched violently.

"I hate this world," Kaizen whispered to the uncaring moon above. "I genuinely hate this cursed world with every fiber of my being."
