_____Yuji Pov_____

When I arrived at the academy that I spent much of my time at two years ago, I stopped to observe it for a while. It was really amazing how the place that was originally just a warehouse used by a bunch of delinquents turned out to be one of the most famous martial arts academies in Shinjuku. This made me crack a smile, enjoying the feeling of being back in the place I used to take my first big step.

Deciding not to waste any more time, I immediately entered the gym, the attention of everyone in the place suddenly on me. I recognized the faces of many of them, but judging by their faces, they didn't seem to recognize me.

I kept silent, moving toward the counter where a young girl was reading a magazine. The girl seemed distracted, and I couldn't help but notice her features. Long blonde hair tied up in two ponytails and tanned skin, and beautiful green eyes. Her beauty made her stand out from the other people in the place, and I really considered the idea that she might end up being a protagonist in some anime or manga that was also part of the mix that was this world.

Also...

'What the fuck kind of aura is that?'

When I began to observe her aura, I was immediately surprised when I discovered that her strength was greater than that of Senju two years ago. Don't get me wrong, I'm not scared, just surprised that a girl who didn't even seem to have muscles on her arms could carry so much power.

"Uh?" Suddenly, I heard the girl mutter as she noticed my shadow on the counter, raising her head to look at me.

"Hi." I simply spoke, showing a smile as I waved.

"..."

The moment his eyes landed on my face, his cheeks took on a red tint as I was almost certain I saw hearts appear in his eyes. I felt uncomfortable by such a look, which was somewhat surprising, since there wasn't much that could make me like this after my training.

'Fighting naked can change a man...'

"I would like to speak to the person in charge of the academy." I said, my smile still on my face as I watched the girl nod in agreement to what I said.

I might as well just move fast enough to the office, but really, I just wanted to talk to the girl at the counter, since she was a sight for sore eyes? Shit, I have two beautiful girls who like me and here I am thinking about hitting on another one, am I becoming a piece of trash?

'...'

Thinking about it is giving me a headache.

Nodding in agreement again, the girl stood up and walked towards the office, and I was sure I saw her drool for a second before she quickly wiped it off. I really thought about my beauty at that moment, and although I didn't think I was ugly, I didn't think I was pretty enough to make a girl drool over me. Perhaps my combat-focused mind of late had prevented me from appreciating my own beauty?

(Author's note: He was not as handsome at the age of 15, and he did not stop to observe his 17-year-old face. Currently, his appearance is true to the image in the auxiliary chapter).

A few minutes later, I noticed the office door opening, Osanai and the girl from before leaving the room and turning to where I was standing.

The moment Osanai saw me, he froze for a moment, his eyes widening in disbelief as he seemed unsure of what to do.

"It's been a long time, Osanai!" I exclaimed with a small laugh.

The blond frowned when I spoke, he bowed his head and slowly walked over to me, stopping in front of me in silence as he put his hand on my shoulder.

"..." I weirded that out, watching him slowly raise his head to face me.

"Damn, how long were you planning on being away for?!" He exclaimed with a smile, pulling me into a hug. I blinked in confusion at that attitude. Whatever his career had done to his personality, it had changed him to make him quite friendly.

"Guys, Yuji is back!" Osanai let go of me and turned to the people in the gym, saying loudly while raising his arms with a happy smile.

"Y-Yuji?! Is that him?!"

"When did he become so tall?!"

"Our leader... Is back!" I swear I could hear someone crying as they said that.

"Hooray for Yuji's return!"

"Hooray!"

I cracked an uncomfortable smile at the whole situation. I remembered something like this happening after I had recovered from my injuries before I started my training, so I wasn't too bothered by it.

"Hibiki, could you close the academy? Let's have a party for Yuji's return." Osanai spoke to the girl, who I found out was named Hibiki. "If you don't want to participate, you can go home for the day."

"Ah, o-ok." The girl looked confused about what was happening. I didn't blame her for that.

"Damn, when did you get taller than me?" Osanai asked as he looked at me, a friendly smile on his lips.

"Thing of fate, overcoming you in many ways was just part of it, don't worry about it."

"You brat, I haven't stopped training a single day since you traveled, I'm ready for a rematch."

We exchanged intense glances, me raising my chin in superiority while he crossed his arms over his chest. That didn't last long when we were unable to hold back our laughter.

"Damn, what did they do to you in the rings?" I started walking toward the interior of the academy, Osanai soon following me.

"Heh, after losing to that Alai Jr guy, I met an old man who helped me. Learning from him turned out to be a great learning experience." Osanai replied with a pleasant smile, making me interested in his story. "But this is not the time for that, let's party!"

I laughed at this, the blond man walking past me when I suddenly remembered the girl's presence, turning to see her grabbing some keys from the counter. As much as I didn't want to become a creep who hit on various girls, something about Hibiki caught my attention, and it wasn't just her aura. There was something else about her.

'Well, it's not like I can't have female friendships.'

"Hey, girl!" I called out to her, causing her to turn in astonishment to me, pointing at herself in confusion. "Don't you want to join the party? It'll be fun."

I opened a gentle smile, and almost immediately, the girl seemed to lose herself in my face again, her cheeks taking on a red tint as she closed her eyes as if she were a puppy that had just been petted.

"I'd love to!" She replied enthusiastically, and I just nodded for her to approach, walking back when she caught up with me.

Even though she was behind me, I could see the radiant girl walking awkwardly as if she were drunk.

'Maybe that was a bad idea.'
