❝WE SMELL LIKE A KAIJU?❞

I repeated her statement with a smile, not fazed unlike Kafka-san who looked like someone poured a cold cup of water on him.

“W-we work in a Kaiju disposal! ” Reno flared his hands up and down, making us look even more suspicious.

Wow, to think she’ll be able to smell even me. I thought in amazement, grinning ear to ear.

“What a talent. . .” I murmured to myself, feeling amused.

“What the heck are disposal workers doing here?” Shinomiya questioned, her expression indifferent.

“Huh?” Shinomiya’s attention shifted to the sound of something heavy being carried, which was the company car she threw.

Kafka-san fixed it up, carrying it like it was no big deal. Hilarious.

“Wha. . . Don’t tell me he has his own private suit!?” Shinomiya said in disbelief, and Reno could only sigh at how obvious Kafka-san was. And seeing their reactions, i stiffled a laugh but failed miserably.

“Fuck! Hilarious! Hahahaha!” I laughed, clutching my stomach.

“Examinee 2032, Hibino Kafka. Remember the name, kiddo.” Kafka-san said smugly, and i laughed even more with how cringe he looked.

“And he stole my parking spot while we were talking! Stupid helpful butler! ” Kafka-san exclaimed.

“Huh. . . I was expecting the exam to be a formality, but this might actually be kind of fun.” Shinomiya said with an amused smile.

“I’m gonna show you up bad, Hibino Kafka.” Shinomiya threatened, flipping her hair as she turned around and walked away.

“Let’s go, Sebasu.” She called to her butler, the said man responding and following.

Kafka-san and I watched as she left, him probably feeling confused while i felt amused than ever.

Kafka-san flinched at how loud Reno stomped his feet, and seeing his expression was hilarious.

“Didn’t take you long to use your powers.” Reno loomed over Kafka-san, and i just laughed for the nth time.

“But wasn’t it cool that i only transformed the part she couldn’t see?” Kafka-san laughed awkwardly, and i laughed louder at his statement.

“HAHAHAHA SO DUMB HAHAHAHA!”

The exam began its shit. Of course, i didn’t find any of the obstacles difficult since i’ve gone through worse back then.

I can’t say the same for Kafka-san, though. He’s gotten pretty old, and it’s not like he was talented in combat given how many times he’s failed.

Reno and Kafka-san said something about giving it our all in the first test since the second part is an aptitude test, something that we may or may not have.

Who am i disobey? If they want me to do my best, so be it.

Kafka Hibino Fitness Exam Rank: 219/225

“Jeez, seriously?” I asked, dumbfounded at how low he got.

I mean, sure he isn’t physically strong, but we handle heavy lifting every single day! I shook my head, sighing.

As Kafka-san knelt in both defeat and fatigue, a paper containing a different person’s rank covered his.

Shinomiya Kikoru Fitness Exam Rank: 5/225

“Well it didn’t take long to show you up.” Shinomiya grinned, covering his lips with her hand teasingly.

Kafka-san stared up at her in shock, recalling her stupid attempt to look cool earlier.

“Forget it! Forget my name this instance!” He screamed in pure agony.

Shinomiya smiled in triumph, turning around and attempted to walk away but stopped when i stepped in front of her, giving her a closed-eye smile.

“You see, that old man right there is a friend of mine. So unfortunately, I can’t have someone openly humiliating him when they’re four spots lower than me.” I opened my eyes, looking at her dead in the eye and showing my own rank.

Yoshioka Aguinne Fitness Exam Rank: 1/225

“No one except me can mess with Kafka-san that badly.” I beamed, hands on my waist.

“I thought you were gonna defend me, turns out your ego was just hurt since someone else messed with me?!” Kafka-san yelled.

Duh? Why would i defend your sorry ass.”
