(Y/N)'s POV
I have been in this store for a couple hours, when the kid said that his book had all the information I thought it was probably a textbook size, more or less. But when he came out of the room with the book and chair I was surprised. The book was double the size of a regular textbook. I just thought, oh great! Here we go! As if saying, "Well damn."
So far I was three-fourths done with the book, I started to get a better understanding of this world. It's still weird that only 80% of the population in this world have powers but the others are regular humans. Not just that but I haven't seen anything over ghouls or the CCG, so that confirms my theory. I need to find that girl again to go back to my own world.
The store was a little crowded with people that started looking and buying books/comics. I was next to the counter where the boy would stand in front of the cashier register, "So any questions over any of these great heroes?!" I looked up at him and racked my brain to see if I did have any questions. "Hmmm, I guess I have one..." "Shoot!"
"Why is All Might so popular? I mean I've seen a lot of merchandise over the guy." The boy, whose name I have learned, gasped in shock as if he were insulted. "How do you not know All Might?! He is the greatest hero on earth!"
I only kept a deadpanned look, not phased at all by his loud voice. I mean his voice is not bad compared to the girls from the cafe, not to mention that I have gotten used to his voice for the past hours.
"I, umm... I'm not from here. I'm from.. (any other place than Japan)." I tried not to answer that as if that was a question, of course I lied, but I had to keep my cover. "Umm, well I guess that can serve as an excuse.. But All Might saves a lot of people, he protects all of us, and he gives us hope too."
A question formed in my mind, "What does he protect people from?" He looks at me in a confused manner, "From villains and criminals of course..." "Ah okay, umm, it's because there are rarely villains from where I am." "Oh okay then, heh."
Yuu, the boy, turned from me and went back to the register checking someone's books. I looked down at the book and closed it, I'm gonna take a little break. I leaned my head back a little, thinking, I need some way to get money. From the looks of it, I might take awhile to find that girl and I need money to survive out here...
Tch I'm really going to ask this kid for help? Jeez there is no other choice to be honest... Yuu looked at me with a smile, walking over to where I was, "You seem tired, you want any snacks? I got some!" The thought of human food almost made me cringe in disgust, "N-no thanks. I'm just a little overwhelmed."
"Hmmm, well what's bothering you?" I raised an eyebrow, "Why are you worried?" "Oh just because you seemed a little stressed." I kept thinking of asking Yuu for help to find a job. "Hey Yuu?" "Yup?!" "How much do they pay you for this job?" "Hm? Oh do you wanna work here too?" I scoff, "I just wanna know, or are there other jobs with good pay?"
He smirks at me as if reading my mind, "Well this store makes a hella lot of money, and I'm the only one working here, so I make around 3,000 yen every hour." Damn he must make a lot of money, "Now if you were to work here then it'd be less, although I'd be your manager. So basically 60 percent to me and 40 percent towards you."
I thought about the offer for a while, If it's 60-40 and I'm doing the math right, then that means he gets around 1,800 yen while I get around 1,200 yen for every hour... I suppose it's not that bad.
"Hmmm... well when can I start?" His eyes lit up like a ghoul that was about to eat some delicious, stomach-filling flesh, "Well you can start tomorrow morning if you'd like!" My eyebrows creased a little while I shifted in my seat, "You're not going to interview me or anything?" "Nope!" Well I guess I shouldn't complain..
"When do we get paid though? Monthly, weekly, dailey?" He chuckled at my question, "We get paid every Saturday! The reason why is because we work from Monday to Saturday, our timings are from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm." "Huh seems pretty good I suppose..." A thought popped into my head about the kid, "Hey aren't those hours around school time? Don't you go to school?"
"No I don't, I dropped out and started working to earn money for myself since I live alone... but it shouldn't be abnormal to you, I mean it doesn't seem like you go to school either." He smirks my way while I frown a little, smartass.
I saw an All Might clock hung to the wall, the time read 2:37 pm. Hmmm at least I came into this city and out of that red light district. I should be able to find a better hotel to stay in tonight- My thoughts were interrupted by loud grumbling, I turned my head from looking at the clock to the boy, blushing in embarrassment, patting his stomach behind the counter. "Sorry heh, I skipped lunch. Aren't you hungry too?" I raised an eyebrow looking into his hazel orbs, "umm no, I ate a lot, earlier, so I'm fine. But you should go take a break-"
"Nah it's fine! I'll wait 'till I close up." I started feeling bad for the kid, I mean I was starved in that black room for almost two full months before I broke out. I know what it feels like to be hungry, although I am surprised I managed to live. I am a ghoul, I admit it, but I wouldn't be as cruel to let someone suffer from hunger.
"I'll take over for you until you come back from eating." He widened his eyes in surprise, "Really?! You'd do that for me?! That'd be cool! Buuuuuut, I mean I still haven't trained you." "Just check out a customer and I'll observe, I'm a quick learner." "Hmmmm, okay if ya say so!" he gave me a thumbs up and motioned me to et behind the counter.
As I went to the back with him, yes I learned that there was a little mini-entrance on the side of the counter, I stood beside him. A girl with shoulder-length brown hair and pink cheeks came up to the counter. Yuu shone with a bright smile, "Hey! What will it be today?" The pink cheeks girl returned the bright smile, "Oh just these two books!" "A-okay!" She turned to look over to me only for her smile to falter a little bit. She awkwardly waved at me and asked, "Hey do you work here too?"
I could not understand how others, especially humans, can smile so much. What will is it they have, that I don't? My bleak expressionless face is the complete opposite of her's, "Not until tomorrow I suppose.." I looked at Yuu working his magic on the register, taking in every movement of his. "Sorry," Yuu began apologizing towards the burnette, "She might seem scary, but she's just not a talker." I scowled in response, "And what the hell do you even know about me?!" "Calm down (L/N), don't start scaring away the customers." He chuckled and I looked away, "Tch."
