Devil's Luck

Chapter 18: Club Funding

"So...care to explain how this happened?" Shiranui asked with deadpanned eyes at a sweatdropped Zenkichi; both sitting side by side in their favorite cafeteria table.

"I don't know what you want me to explain, Shiranui-san." Zenkichi flatly replied as he took a bite out of his sandwich.

Shiranui raised an eyebrow at him, slowly slurping her ramn, with a blank look she turned forward to another pair of people sitting opposite to them, only, they weren't strangers but a very familiar pair of popular girls; Medaka Kurokami and Nekomi Nabeshima.

"Hm? Kurokami-san, why don't you have anything to eat?" Nabeshima asked curiously, leaning over the table, she tilted her head towards Medaka while holding her yakisoba pan in her left hand.

Medaka, surrounded by several stacks of paper, was writing a paper with one hand while stamping a different paper with the other, glanced at her with a raised eyebrow, "As you can see Nabeshima-senpai, I have some work to do. Plus, I'm not feeling that hungry." she simply replied before going back to her work.

"Oho, as expected of the student council president~" Nabeshima giggled with a cattish grin. "Working so diligently and not taking a break to eat, you're truly the role model for us students!"

"I appreciate your concern and praise, Nabeshima-senpai." Medaka flatly replied. "And I really need to finish this right now because I have a request from the bowling club I need to do in their club in 10 minutes."

Nabeshima's lips twitched and sighed. "Still though Kurokami-san, it's lunch time and our very first unofficial club meeting! So forget about work for now and play with your friends~" she winked playfully.

Medaka blinked and turned towards her, tilting her head, with complete sincerity and honesty in her eyes, "We're friends?"

"..."

Shiranui turned to stare at Zenkichi. "You want these two to be a part of our future club? I mean I can get Kurokami but Nabeshima-senpai as well?"

"What's the problem with Nabeshima-senpai?"

"Yeah! What's the problem with me?!" Nabeshima turned towards Shiranui with a glare.

"I apologize if I gave off the wrong impression, Nabeshima-senpai. There's no problem with you joining the club." Shiranui explained calmly with a wide hollow smile and emotionless expression, though sparkles of mischief flashed across her eyes.

"You don't look apologetic at all!" Nabeshima hissed at her like a cat.

"Shishishi."

Zenkichi shook his head at their antics and took part in eating his own lunch; a simple double whopper cheese burger, fige slices of pepperoni pizza with peppers and extra cheese, and a strawberry milkshake.

What? This cafeteria almost has everything! It's a waste to not order them. No. It's a crime itself that no one had ordered burgers except him and Shiranui! So far...

A day had passed since the Judo Club incident and ended mostly okay for him; with the vice captain, whose name he totally forgot about, was selected as the successor of Nabeshima when he was the only gutsy one to try and attack Medaka.

Though the best part of yesterday was Akune being sent off to the infirmary with several broken bones and be bedridden for a month!

Zenkichi is honestly impressed at how Medaka easily sent the former thug flying into a wall like he was some toy.

He didn't like the guy but oof, anybody would feel sympathy if they saw someone get wrecked like that.

But back to the recap of yesterday's events. Since he got that Judo skill, a reward for recruiting Nabeshima, as well as a abnormal skill, not to mention that trial use of The End, he didn't have the need to apply for a trial session with the Judo Club and just went on home after school was out.
