Beyond The Worlds

The new student: Aka Shirai

 Akira woke up and got ready to go to her classroom.  She took the Bento Shin had prepared and left.

 -

 When Akira arrived in her room, the room had only a few students.  Akira used to arrive a little earlier than usual.  Class hadn't started yet, so she decided to play around with her cell phone a bit.

 -

 'So is this a school?'  Aka thought with an excited expression.  In her world there were no schools, so she had high expectations;  however, she knew that people in Shin's world didn't have supernatural powers, so she was just excited for the experience.

 'Still has his sister.'  Aka thought about Shin's sister.  She thought Shin was amazing, so she hoped his sister was too.  Even though Akira didn't have supernatural powers, Aka didn't despise her.  The reason?  Shin probably wouldn't pat her anymore.

 -

 "Students, today we will have a new student in our class."  The teacher said,

 "Is she pretty?"  A boy spoke.

 "I don't know, let's see first."  Another replied.

 Boys usually kept an eye on the girls, looking for some chance.  When Akira showed up in class, she became almost an idol in the boys' eyes.  Some brave ones even tried to declare themselves, but they were rejected.

 "In between."  The teacher told her to come into the room and introduce herself.  When Aka appeared, the boys almost fell out of their chairs.

 'Another beauty.'  They wondered why this year the girls were so beautiful.

 Aka looked at the people in the class with an indifferent expression.

 "Aka Shirai."  Aka said and went to sit down.

 'That's it?'  The boys thought this girl would be the famous "cold beauty";  however, they were wrong.

 Aka looked around until her eyes landed on Akira.

 'It must be her.'  Aka thought this girl would be Shin's sister, so she sat down next to Akira.  Akira got a little uneasy when she saw Aka looking at her so intently.

 "Well, let's start class."  The teacher was also surprised by Aka's lack of interaction, but he didn't give it much thought and decided to go back to class.

 -

 The bell rang signaling the start of the interval.  The students left their respective classes and headed towards the cafeteria.  Akira also went to the cafeteria to eat the Bento Shin made for her.  Akira sat at an empty table to eat, but was surprised when the new student in her class sat down beside her.

 "Can I sit beside you?"  Aka asked.

 "Y-Yes…" Akira thought Aka was very strange, but she still nodded.

 "Thanks!"  Aka replied and sat down beside her.  Even though it didn't show on her face, Aka was also nervous.  She had never socialized like this, so she was lost.

 "H-Your name?"  Aka suddenly asked.

 "Hmm?"  Akira didn't quite understand Aka's question.

 "What is your name?"  She asked again.

 "My name is Akira Akash. Nice to meet you."  Akira replied.

 "R-right… My name is Aka Shirai."  Aka spoke unsteadily.  The situation got a little awkward after they introduced themselves.  Neither of them knew how to continue this conversation, so Akira decided to open the Bento Shin made for her;  however, when she opened the Bento, a delicious scent began to permeate the air.

 'That…' Akira didn't know when her brother managed to learn how to cook.  Just the smell of food made her belly rumble.  The people in the cafeteria also looked at Akira's table and wondered how food could smell so good.  The Bento Shin prepared was Sashimi, but he mixed it with some recipes from the world of Omui.  Shin was also able to modify the taste of food using mana, but this needs to be done in a very subtle way.

 'I better eat soon.'  Akira grabbed her cutlery and started to eat, but she noticed that Aka was looking at her with a smoldering gleam in her eyes.  She thought Aka wanted some Bento, so she decided to offer it.

 "Do you want some?"  Akira asked.

 "Serious?!"  Aka also wanted to taste Akira's Benedict.

 "Un."  Akira nodded, then she shared some of the Bento with Aka.

 "Delicious!"  Aka said as she ate.

 "Did you prepare this?"  Aka asked.  She didn't know that Shin had learned to cook in Elf country.

 "No. My brother made it for me."  Akira said with a happy smile.

 "I see… your brother is amazing!"  Aka didn't know Shin was good at cooking, so she was a little surprised.

 'How many things does he know how to do?'  Aka was thinking about how many things Shin knew how to do.

 Akira was happy when Aka praised her brother.  At that point, she thought Aka was a nice girl.

 -

 The break was over and everyone went back to their respective classes.  Akira and Aka also returned to the room together.  They were a little closer now.

 "Can we take a walk after class?"  Aka asked Akira.  She felt the two were getting closer, so she decided to make a wish.

 "Fine. How about we go to a park?"  Akira suggested.  The U.F was close to a very famous park, so she wanted to visit it.  Akira couldn't visit many places before, because her financial condition was not good;  however, now his brother is a millionaire, so he doesn't have too many problems.

 "It's a good idea."  Aka had never been to an amusement park either, so she also wanted to try it.  This tour could also bring Aka and Akira closer together.  Aka wanted to stay close to her so that she could pay Shin visits without arousing suspicion.  She also thought she could get extra pats as a reward.

 'Hehe.'

 -

 Shin was 100% focused right now.  If he could complete his experiment, he could speed up and carry out his plans more efficiently;  however, he still needed to confirm whether his experiment had worked or not.  When Shin was thinking about it, a hologram of a woman formed on his desk.  Shin was ecstatic right now.

 "Good morning Master."

 The "woman" with the robotic voice said.

 Shin showed a sincere smile at this point.  He was really happy.

 "Good morning… Haze!"

 An artificial intelligence.
