Chapter 1843: Morning Coffee
After the rookie division competition ended, everything moved so smoothly, and the First High had always been in 1st place with a huge gap point difference from the 2nd place, which was the Third High.
The championship of the First High had already been concluded, and the only event that was left was the final official division of the Monolith Code, which was represented by Juumonji Katsuto, Hattori Gyoubushoujo Hanzou, and Tatsumi Koutarou.
Haru didn't think too much and knew already what the result was, but even if Juumonji lost, the First High would still be able to become the champion. Still, he didn't think that Juumonji would lose, or rather, he didn't think that anyone in the Nine Schools Competition could defeat Juumonji.
Even Tatsuya, who was the main character of this world, also couldn't defeat Juumonji, considering Juumonji's specialty magic was.
Phalanx.
Haru was able to use this magic, but he wouldn't use it since the aftermath of using this magic would be troublesome. He was also sure that the Juumonji family would be full of complaints if he could use their family magic, which was why he used illusion-related magic to defeat Masaki before.
On the last day of the Nine Schools Competition, right in the morning, Haru was sitting on the terrace on the quiet place of the hotel alone while talking with his subordinates about the matter related to No Head Dragon. His subordinates reported how much money that he had gotten, and from the excitement of this report, he knew that he had gotten a lot of money.
Haru smoked a cigarette relaxedly, listening to the report of his subordinates. Even though he knew that cigarettes weren't healthy, it was quite helpful to erase his stress for a while, and even if this thing was unhealthy, it wouldn't affect his body since he knew how powerful his body was, but he wouldn't smoke in his hotel room since Shizune was sleeping there. He knew that she didn't like the smell of cigarettes, so he smoked outside.
Haru had turned the camera around so no one would see what he was doing. Still, he didn't care even if someone saw him.
Talking with his subordinates, Haru suddenly heard footsteps. He turned and saw Miyuki was there. He raised his eyebrow and ignored this girl.
"....."
Miyuki was stunned when she saw Haru sitting lazily on the quiet terrace while smoking. She then couldn't help but frown when she saw him, ignoring her, and continued to smoke. She then didn't hesitate to walk toward him and heard some of his conversations.
"Well, I'll talk with you later." Haru ended his call and asked, "Why you're here, Miyuki?" In truth, he had placed some kind of enhancement that would make people move away from where he relaxed, but he didn't expect this girl to move forward toward him without hesitation.
"I feel something weird here, but I didn't expect to catch you smoking." Miyuki frowned and said, "Don't you know that if you're caught, then our plan will fail?" They had made a plan to conquer the First High together when Mari, Mayumi, and Juumonji graduated. After all, she wanted her brother to be seen better by everyone, so she wanted their plan to be successful no matter what.
Haru put off the fire on his cigarette and put it back in its pack.
Miyuki didn't wait for him to talk and sat next to him while looking at him, staring at him who was sipping a cup of coffee relaxedly. She looked at him and felt quite weird. After all, most men would look at her and even be obsessed with her, but this guy seemed to ignore her charm.
"Why do you look at me like that? Did you fall for me?" Haru asked with a smile.
Miyuki snorted and said, "You're so narcissistic!" But if someone looked at her face closely, they might be able to see a red shade on her cheek. "You know, isn't it better for you to stop smoking, it isn't good for you. It also isn't good for your image."
"I just smoked sometimes. I didn't do it every time. Anyway, why are you here?" Haru asked.
"Nothing, I'm just curious why there was something weird around this area. I thought that there was an intruder, but it was you." Miyuki looked at Haru and asked, "So why are you here?"
"Suzune is in my room. She doesn't like me to smoke." Haru also knew that it might be good to stop smoking, considering Maya was pregnant with his child. Even though there wasn't much happening in this world, he had to admit that being a father so early wasn't something that he had expected, and this feeling was quite surreal for him.
"....." Miyuki was speechless and blushed when she heard that Suzune was in his room. She wasn't stupid and knew what this guy was doing with Suzune in his room.
Haru looked at Miyuki and asked, "Do you want a coffee?"
Miyuki looked at Haru for a while and nodded. "I don't mind."
Haru took out his small thermos and poured a coffee on the cup that he had brought before he gave the cup of coffee to Miyuki. "Here you go."
"Thank you." Miyuki was surprised by the aroma of the coffee. She was also an avid coffee lover and had tasted various coffees in this world, so it was surprising that she had never tasted this coffee.
Miyuki looked at the coffee for a while before she sipped the coffee, and she was in shock. The taste of the coffee had this pleasant sweetness with some hints of chocolate and a subtle caramel taste. She also didn't taste the bitterness of the coffee, which made her even surprised. She looked at the coffee, then looked at Haru, who was sipping his coffee while staring at the park in front of them lazily. "Haru, what is this coffee?"
"....." Haru only looked at Miyuki for a while and felt a bit awkward to tell what kind of coffee that they had drunk. The coffee that they had drunk was a "Kopi Luwak" or the "Civet Coffee," which was a specialty coffee of the country in the South-East Asian League.
What was so special about this coffee was how it was made. The author wouldn't explain it since everyone could browse it on the internet in the future.
"...It's coffee from countries around the South-East Asian League," Haru said calmly.
"Oh!" Miyuki nodded and asked, "Share me some if you have it."
"In the future, alright?" Haru said.
Miyuki nodded and didn't think too much, but then she asked, "Say, Haru."
"Hmm?"
"Are you really not going to ask me to make a perverted request like usual for the payment for what we're about to do?" Miyuki asked.
"....." Haru looked at Miyuki and wondered whether this girl wanted him to do something perverted to her.
