39 ARC 3 PROLOGUE
A/N:
Ladies and Gentlemen, I can proudly say that my exams are finally over, meaning normal schedule times are back baby!
POP!
Wooooo!
(That was a party popper.)
Anyway, the schedule will be the norm; Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (For me at least) until another final exam I guess.
Also, as a celebration for the end of finals hell, I'm soon going to do something so stay tuned!
Remember lads, you can join ma Pa tre on for early chapters (We're at 47 right now, about... 10 extra chapters?), so if you have the spare cash and interest, you know where to find me.

One month later...
Sitting in his seat, he glanced over at Toga to see that her table is still crowded with her new friends that she made a month ago. And as for him...
Well, the silence treatment started the moment he said that he was Quirkless.
Didn't think that just being Quirkless makes you invisible to others. I'm honestly impressed that Izuku in the anime didn't break from this.
Eh, whatever. He had a date with Toga later after class, so that made his day yesterday.
While the bunch were talking and occupying Toga's attention, he turned behind him and looked at his acquaintance.
"So, did you hear that the new volume is coming out for "It's Another Day in an Isekai World"?"
Jiro-san said once she placed her book down as Go-Ru gave her his persona's kind smile.
"Yeah, I'm quite excited about it honestly. Author-san said that this was going to be a long volume compared to the rest."
They started talking about books as he recalled what happened on the first day of class, the moment lunch began.

RING~
The bell rang as the teacher left for lunch, meaning it was time for questions to be bombarded to the new transfer students.
"What're your Quirks?"
"Hobbies?"
"Have you decided to join a club yet?"
Questions were shot so fast that Go-Ru had to raise his hands with an awkward smile to stop them. It seemed that the girls were mostly asking Toga the same questions from what her expression was saying.
"Er... For the first question, I do not have a Quirk — "
The moment Go-Ru said that the faces of the classmates in front of him fell.
"Second question, no, unfortunately. I'm trying to find one though. And for the third one, not yet. I'd like to look around though."
Go-Ru answered the second and third questions, looking at their strained smiles.
'Huh. Quirk discrimination...'
He doubts that they heard him after he said that he was Quirkless, making them look at each other before smiling with a strain.
"Ah, I see. Anyways, nice meeting you!"
They said their goodbyes immediately before flocking with Toga.
Kids these days...
SNORT!
'Someone snorted from that, meaning I just said it out loud, didn't I?'
Looking back, he sees Jiro-san with a blush, revealing the culprit of the snort. With an extended hand, he gave her a smile as he introduced himself.
"Dan Go-Ru. Nice to meet you."
"Oh, h-hi. Jiro Kyoka. It's a pleasure."
'I saw that you were reading a novel earlier. What's it about?"
He said that to get a conversation going, and from the look he got, she was interested. Hook, line, and sinker.
"I-It's about a reincarnated person... Nothing interesting compared to hero stuff..."
And it was true for most people, they rather talk about hero stuff and not talk about boring novels and books. But Go-Ru was different, he was a hella fan of novels back in his past life.
"Oh, you just piqued my interest. Tell me the synopsis and then I'll judge for myself."
___________________________________
And that was how this weird relationship of us trading books and stories started. It was at least better than Toga's fan group that popped up recently, something that Jiro told him which cracked him up.
"It looks like you know her."
"Er... Yeah, I kinda do but I can't talk about it."
"Eh, it's alright. Anyways, have you seen the adaptation of this book?"
"Yeah, but people say that it's bad though..."

"Sigh... They're so annoyinggggg. Ughhhhh..."
She complained as he sips his mocha coffee. They were in a cafe having their date.
Toga had let go of her twin tails, opting for a ponytail for this date. She wore a loose long-sleeve turtleneck beige sweater that was almost as long as her frame, short white short pants that showed her long beautiful legs and wore pink Asics sneakers to complement her looks.
She looked gorgeous, just... beautiful.
Gohru was back to his normal look, with black messy hair that is kept with a black cap, a loose black t-shirt with a grey and blue Asics jacket that had the logo of a black phoenix at the back, a pair of long black tight pants that highlighted his muscular legs, and his Asics black and gold shoes.
Speaking about Asics, he renewed his contract just a few months ago, increasing his monthly salary to 1,500,000 Yen and a hint of shares of the company due to his performance and publicity from the World Martial Arts Tournament increased company profits by 14% alone, making him important to Asics.
So with that money, along with advertisements, royalty for his own series of Asics shoes that he was wearing right now, and tournament prizes, he was chilling at 2,300,000 yen a month which was a lot since he could basically buy anything he wanted.
But since he had always lived a low-income lifestyle until recently, he kept about 60% of his earnings in his bank while he used the rest for normal life things.
"Gohru? You're in your "Thinking" pose again."
"Hmm?"
Interesting... He had a thinking pose?
"Yeah, when you're thinking, your pupils dilate slightly and you start tapping the table at one point two taps per second with your left index finger while your right leg starts to twitch to your heartbeat."
... Right, his observant stalker.
"Thinking about some finance things."
"Mhmm... Now, let's talk about the girl that you keep talking to."
"She's just an acquaintance, Toga."
He said, mentally rolling her eyes at her yandere tendencies that were hot and annoying at the same time. Yanderes were hot, but hell, he even couldn't talk to men! Men! He was straight, thank you very much!
"Grr... She's still too close!"
She hisses like a cat as Gohru just chuckles and drinks another sip of his coffee. Delicious as always. This was his usual place to get coffee. The owner already knew that he was Jin Gohru, and had exchanged contacts for Gohru so that he could book the second floor without any cost.
He always tried to pay for the reservation since it would lose him money, but the old man would just wave it off.
"You already give enough publicity from coming here, you basically paid for the reservations from you being here."
What a chad. Making sure to tip him more than the usual 1,000 yen, he lets Toga control the activity to day a she hooked her arms around his left arm and starts to drag him to an arcade that she found out just yesterday.
