Chapter 1 - A Chat Group?

Author Note; This is an alternate world of Love Hina so this world not exist in year 1999 but in 2019. Urashima Keitarou has already failed the entrance exam to Tokyo University a second time. Because of this, his parents forbade him from going home, and he can only go home if he has already been accepted to Toudai or at least some university. So right now, Keitarou is living in the apartment that he bought using the money he earned by making an oil painting and selling it online along with the money he got from the manga he made. Keitarou's grades may have been average in almost every subject when he was in high school. But his art and cooking abilities were beyond normal; his art skills were acknowledged at the national level because he won a national level art competition at the age of seven. And the oil painting that he made is worth millions of yen. That's why Keitarou never had a money problem because of the hundreds of paintings that he made, which made him a billionaire. The studio apartment where he lives right now is in a city called Hinata. The city where he was born and the place where the inn that was owned by his family exists, Hinata Sou, or Hinata Inn, was the place where he spent all of his childhood, but he hadn't been there for a long time. He doesn't have time to go there, plus he always has a bad feeling every time he has time to go to Hinata Inn. That's why he decided that he didn't want to go to Hinata Sou except if his grandmother, who is the owner of the inn, called him.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "Onii-chan, I'm home!" A girl with black hair and a cute face that was almost covered with a bangs was going inside the Keitarou Apartment. The girl was wearing a standard girl's school uniform, like a red blazer with a red skirt."Ah, Kanako, you're home," Keitarou said, who was busy drawing a manga sketch while he was chatting at his computer at the same time. "Welcome home.""Geez, Onii-chan! Your cute imoutou is already home, but you are busy chatting at your computer while working on your ongoing manga."Urashima Kanako, the 'adopted' little sister of Keitarou, who is still in her third grade at middle school, was living with Keitarou because she didn't want to live at the Urashima Residence without her older brother. That is why she decided to move in with him at his apartment. Because not only is his apartment really close to her school, but the plus side is that she can live together with the men she really loves. She even rejected her grandmother's invitation to tour the world because, for her, living with Keitarou is more exciting. "Well, I don't have a choice, you know; all my assistants were sick because of the flu, and the deadline for my ongoing manga was in two days. That's why I'm busy sketching while video chatting using Zoom with my editor so I can finish my manga right on time! I even don't have time to study for the entrance exam for Toudai, you know."Kanako is sighed with her brother's attitude; her brother was a successful painter and the current number one mangaka, earning billions of yen every year. Why was he still so determined to go to Toudai even though his earnings were even bigger than everyone else in the Urashima clan?xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"Are you still unwilling to move on and feel determined to fulfill your childhood promises to a pair of girls that you even don't remember anymore, Onii-chan?" Kanako asked while she put her school bag on the sofa, not far from Keitarou's desk."You already have a lot of money that is enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life. Why were you still so determined to study at Toudai?""Hmm, no, I already moved on, you know," Keitarou replied with his hand and eyes still working fast. "I want to go to Toudai only to prove to our parents that I'm smart enough to go there; the promises that I made when I was five years old were just an excuse so that grandma, who wanted me to fulfill those promises, didn't forbid me to work on my manga and paintings that she thought would hinder my goal of going to Tokyo University.""Yeah, our grandma didn't like when you started a career as a manga artist, while mom and dad didn't forbid you from being a manga artist because of the money and success that you got. The reputation of our wagashi shop was ruined because you failed two times at the Toudai entrance exam; that's why they expelled you from the house so that the reputation of Urashima wagashi shop can be restored," Kanako said with an angry look on her face. "Sighed's being a member of an ex-samurai family with a high reputation was really troublesome."xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"Yeah, it's troublesome, but luckily both of us didn't need to become inheritors of our family wagashi shop, because that was Keima-Nii-san's job as our older brother and the one who has a godly ability in making a wagashi," Keitarou said, who is already finishing the sketch and right now he is doing some inking to the sketch he made. "His ability to make wagashi was insane; I can make wagashi just fine, but his ability was at another level compared to mine.""I don't like wagashi or sweet food, but even I can tell how insane Keima Onii-chan's skill is," Kanako said while standing and walking to the door that led into her room. "I'm glad that both of us didn't need to inherit the shop, because I don't think the two of us were good enough to inherit the shop."After saying that Kanako was going inside her room while Keitarou was inking his sketch with insane speed. When he was done inking, he was about to start the next sketch. But suddenly the monitor on his computer became static, and the important chat he had with his editor was cut off.Keitarou was cursing because of the condition of the monitor. Because of that, he decided that he would be using his smartphones to continue the video chat with his editor.But something very bizarre is happening to his smartphone right after he turns it on. Suddenly the phone's screen became static, and the screen became so bright that after that, the screen of his phone was showing a message that said, "Welcome to the Multiversal Chat Group."Keitarou felt confused by the words that appeared on the screen of his new gadget. He really didn't understand the meaning of the words on the screen.Suddenly, from the screen or his gadget, there was another bright light that appeared and made him close his eyes. And when Keitarou opened his eyes, he could see another word appear on the screen.[Scanning the host body has done, the Multiversal Chat Group System is saying welcome to Urashima Keitarou from Love Hina World as the second owner of the Chat Group after Midou Ban, the first owner and the watcher of the group, who is currently not active because he is still busy doing something else, so right now the leader of the Chat Group is you, Urashima Keitarou. The Multiversal Chat Group was a private chat room where a lot of fictional characters from novels, anime, and manga could have a conversation and exchange a lot of things. Even when buying a strong weapon or skill from the shop on the menu, your nickname in the chat group was Mr. Punching Bag.If you didn't understand why you had that nickname, you can see the video about your life in the video section on the menu.] Read advanced Chapter at Pa. treon.com/Raylight25
