Chapter 95.1

Mantis Shrimp

This is the usual classroom at the chiropractic school.

"Whoa, super fine vibration blast! (Trembling!)"

"Oh, that's great, Muto-san!"

For some reason, the older man, Muto-san, showed strong interest in my invented super fine vibration blast. Thanks to repeated guidance and his unwavering effort, Muto-san was starting to master the [Moderate Vibration Blast].

"Wow, Zucky, we finally made it this far, thank you!"

"Congratulations, Muto-san! (High-five!)"

When Muto-san opened his practice, he wanted to make this vibration blast his selling point. He started his second life after leaving his corporate job, and I hope he does well.

However, he might want to lose a little weight. The flesh under his chin quivers when he releases the vibration blast and can't help but induce laughter.

After enjoying our time at the chiropractic school, we took a bath at the hot spring public bath.

With my newfound muscular physique, I couldn't fit in my home bathtub without transforming. So, going to the public bath became a daily routine.

"Phew, what a nice bath. It's best to stretch your limbs in a spacious bathtub. Huh?"

As I prepared to take out my motorcycle after coming out of the bath, I noticed a message from Serai-san.

It's 6:00 PM, and I received a message about ten minutes ago. It says, [Master, can I come over to hang out?] Well, [Sure, but there won't be a bath or dinner tonight], I replied. Serai-san responded with, [That's fine].

What could it be? It doesn't seem like he's after a bath or a meal. Oh well, either way, I'm not very impressed. It's not easy for me to endure, you know.

Anyway, after finishing my shopping and returning home, changing into casual clothes, Serai-san knocked on my door without prior notice. Huh, he's early. Could it be that he was already on his way when he sent the message?

(What!? Wait, Serai-san could she be doing it while talking!?)

No way! Serai-san, how careless Wait, this is something regular people can't hear, right? It's because I'm about 20 times more sensitive than normal people

Oh no! If Serai-san knew I heard such embarrassing sounds, he might be mortified. Yeah, I didn't hear anything! La la la! I didn't hear anything!!

Coughing exaggeratedly, I arrange the things Serai-san bought on the table.

"(Clink! Knock, knock) Ugh, I thought I was going to wet myself!"

"Sorry about that. There wasn't time for an explanation"

But I'm just relieved that Serai-san didn't turn it into a disaster.

If Serai-san had ended up in a real mess, I would have to dash out to buy replacement pants, and Serai-san would have to shower in the cramped space between the mantis shrimps' filled bathtub and the toilet.

"Mmm So, what about these little shrimp?"

Serai-san glares at me with a serious expression.

"They're mantis shrimp I caught them in a nearby river after dropping you off the other day. I thought we'd have them for dinner today"

"Huh So you mean we're going to cook them?! I want to do it too! (Yay!)"

Ah, Serai-san's mood brightened up when she found out we were going to cook. She's really easy to read at times like this.

"Great! Let's have you help, Serai-san."

"Yeah! What can I do?"

Serai-san is really excited now that she knows we're going to cook.

Alright, let's cook together then. Let's get cooking!
