I Became a Genius by Running Away From the Academy

24 – Correlation between clubs, students and growth (1)

I was able to get out of the dormitory around 6:30 after I finished my preparations.

“Haaam, it’s still early in the morning, but most of the shops are open, right?”

“It was open similar to this when I came.”

Erio said, patting my back with the palm of her hand.

“I heard about it on the way home, but the club that started business quickly has been open like this since midnight yesterday.”

She was a little taken aback by that statement.

But when I thought about it, it wasn’t even a nonsensical story.

“Well, it’s only for two days on the weekend that the club exhibition is held like this. It might be a way to make the most of your time.”

At the university festival, there is a store that is open 24 hours.

I’m sure you’ve heard someone say it’s crazy or not, but it wasn’t a particularly murderous schedule here.

“Hey! Why are you using fire magic like that! If you’re tired, eat a fatigue recovery potion!”

“No! You can!”

“What can I do! The sausage doesn’t taste like fire at all! Meat and gravy can’t dance the blues at all! Carefully adjust the firepower to save the taste of fire!”

“Yes! All right! I’m sorry, senior!!!”

That’s because running a store and selling food wasn’t a poggy-haired lady, but super people who could do all sorts of things beyond common sense.

‘Basic stamina is no joke.’

It was comfortable to think that it was similar to many people in the physical education department who basically said that they had to eat two servings to feel like they ate a little.

‘Anyway, he’s so passionate.’

The only genre over there was a cooking manga.

“What is this sausage again! Why is it pink! Are you kidding me right now?! I told you to make sausage, why did you make a dildo for bed!”

“Yes! Sorry! Chef! No! Ramden Koji senior!”

…… The user seemed to be over 15 years old.

‘But I hope you don’t say dildo so loudly.’

I ate a hot dog feeling a little queasy.

By the way, the hot dog was delicious.

In addition to hot dogs, there were other foods like waffles and chicken skewers on the street, so I didn’t have to starve.

“Then why are there only students?”

“Oh, they say outsiders come in from the afternoon.”

“Why did you share it?”

“I heard that the consideration of the student council is to focus on accepting new students in the morning and hunting for sponsors in the afternoon?”

FYI, the word sponsor hunting was not a word I made up right now, but a word that was originally used.

It was a part where we could see what the students thought of their sponsors and how sincere they were.

“But what are you going to do? Is there a place you want to see first?”

The reason we met and went around like this was to help Erio choose her club, so I asked her opinion first.

“Yes, I will go see a play first.”

“A play?”

But I was a little surprised when they said to see a play, not the name of the club.

“Yeah, actually I bought two tickets yesterday because Eugene said he was going to join the theater club. So, let’s go see a play first, then register for a club there first.”

Erio said that and waved his hand in front of me, and the two tickets in his hand fluttered.

‘The performance starts at 7:30, so I guess I didn’t come early for nothing.’

I was a little surprised because it was a surprise gift that I received as if I was being tucked up in my sleeve, but I didn’t feel bad when I heard that it was prepared for me.

The title of the performance is…… A lonely princess? Did he like fairy tales like this?’

It was a bit unexpected, but if it suits you, it seems to suit you.

Erio’s basic expression is a blank expression, but she’s still a pretty and cute girl on the outside.

“This is the first time I have come to see a play like this.”

“Huh? Oh right. Didn’t you hate crowded places because of your constitution?”

Recently, because of my characteristics, I forgot about it for a while because I only had a taste for going to crowded places and watching the crowds.

“Yeah, that’s right. So I’m really looking forward to it.”

Erio said that and pressed both hands on my shoulders like a purring cat.

Judging by the fact that he was shaking his feet, he must have been very excited.

“Have you seen a lot of plays, Eugene?”

“No, it’s my first time seeing a play, too.”

“Really?”

Erio stuck her head out beside me as if she was surprised.

I almost fell over because of that moment, but thanks to the quick extension of my shadow, I was able to avoid falling.

“It is dangerous, so stay calm.”

“Yeah, okay. Sorry.”

“It’s enough to know. And it’s the first time seeing a play.”

You can easily watch anime and movies at home, but it wasn’t a play.

I wasn’t in a relaxed situation to the point where I was able to watch things like that.

“Seeing a play for the first time with a friend…… “

At my words, Erio muttered something to her and went back behind her.

‘Anyway, this guy is getting better and better at riding on my back?’

These days, even if I didn’t stick out my back, he would hang onto my back by himself.

‘It was very natural to move on the back a while ago…… After all, isn’t it hanging by itself without me carrying it?’

Fishik-

‘It can’t be.’

I suddenly had that thought, but I just let it go.

Because humans aren’t cats and there’s no way they could become something like that.

“Then let’s go quickly!”

While I was thinking about that, Erio patted my shoulder and urged me on.

I couldn’t resist the urgency and increased my walking speed, so I was able to arrive at the theater before the start of the performance.

“Welcome, I’ll check your tickets.”

“Here.”

When I handed out the ticket, the clerk said puzzled.

“Excuse me, sir, but there are two tickets…… “

“Oh, there is one more.”

I slightly turned her body to show Erio on her back.

Then the employee said in surprise.

“Oh, there was one more.”

“Yes, with a friend…… “

At the staff’s words, Erio nodded her head and tried to say something.

But the staff spoke one step faster than that.

“Did you come to see a play with your family? I’m envious that you and her sister are close enough to carry each other.”

“…… “

It was amazing.

Even though he couldn’t see his face, he seemed to be able to see Erio’s shocked face through his back.

“Then please enjoy watching.”

“Oh, yes. Thank you.”

I didn’t know what to say in this situation, so I gave an appropriate answer and quickly turned to the concert hall.

“Put it down.”

Shortly after I let go of him, Erio patted me on the shoulder and said.

“I will go on foot myself.”

“Yes, yes.”

After coming down like that, Erio continued to look at the receptionist from before and at my back, then at my hand.

“Will you hold my hand?”

“…… It’s okay.”

After saying that in a voice full of regret, Erio stomped and walked toward the concert hall.

Ehh-

‘I’ll feel better after watching a play.’

I sang Erio while thinking that it would be nice if that was the case.

“Hey, Erio.”

“Don’t call me. I’m not a younger brother, but a friend, so even if you don’t hold my hand…… “

“That’s not it, the venue where we perform is here, not there.”

Stand up-

At my words, Erio stopped for a moment and then cautiously walked towards me.

The sound of Erio’s footsteps returning was noticeably less than before, but instead his face was as red as a blush.

“It was fun.”

“It was definitely fun.”

Fortunately, Erio was able to regain her mood, as if the play was quite to her taste.

However, he didn’t ride on my back to see if he was still in his mind about what happened just a moment ago.

“Yes, that’s it! Welcome to our club!”

“Yes, thank you.”

She went back to the streets after successfully joining the theater club, and she enjoyed watching and enjoying various clubs.

“Because it is like this, it definitely feels like a festival.”

“Sure.”

Erio nodded her head accepting it as I held it out while receiving the item I shot.

By the way, this was the 10th prize winning, but thanks to Erio preparing the subspace bag in advance, there were no obstacles.

‘Take out expensive items as if nothing happened…… She has bought all the food sold at the stalls so far…… ‘

Yum-

“This is why I like to carry you on my back, Erio.”

“? Thank you?”

At my sudden words, Erio said that while puzzled.

“So, out of all the clubs you’ve seen so far, are there any clubs you are attracted to?”

“No, not really.”

Erio said that, and she must have felt a bit impatient. She took out her device and looked at the clubs currently running.

“Well, you don’t have to join the club, so let’s go comfortably.”

Anyway, if you choose both of the clubs, you won’t be able to join the club that the male protagonist will enter later, so I stopped Erio.

“Yes, thank you.”

Fortunately, Erio listened to me and put the device down.

“Then, I’m going to apply for my remaining clubs first?”

“Yes. Okay.”

Erio nodded her head like that, and after thinking for a while, she said.

“By the way, what is a cosplay club doing?”

“Well? To be honest, I don’t even know.”

“Will it take long to apply for a club?”

“Maybe it won’t take too long?”

Cosplay clubs basically had an image of being non-mainstream, so I said that without thinking.

“Hmm, it sounds like it will be difficult?”

“Yes?”

So I didn’t expect that such a sudden ambush would appear.
