My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 235: War

Now that Zenobia knew about the system store and everything, things became a lot easier with the new option being opened to them, things like new or extremely rare ingredients were nothing and only a touch away.

This is also the reason no one in the house uses the points on increasing their stats, since it can be useful when they might need something urgently and it can also be used to buy what they need.

Just the other day Queresha and Zenobia completed the improved smartphones that Queresha was working on before coming here.

The phone was now completely free of the mana battery as well and will remain fully charged by absorbing mana from the surroundings, using it you can also call normal phones plus talking in between mana smartphones is much smoother and better.

The previous problem of barriers was also solved by Queresha and Zenobia working together plus the phone is extra durable and even the national rank hunters won't be able to break it.

'But the signals still can't pass through Aether barriers,' Haru thought while looking at his phone. And this is what Queresha is thinking about tackling next since it will also double as a study on Aether along with her other projects.

Anyway, it was a good improvement and Queresha fully intended to make many more things. Currently, everyone was doing their own thing while Haru was in the academy office drinking some coffee and relaxing a little.

[Fuuh~! I had such a nice nap,] Kurumi who was on Haru's lap stretched her body making the small fox look extremely cute.

[You are sleeping more these days, Are you tired?] Haru spoke as he patted Kurumi's head.

[And who's fault do you think is that? Seriously you better reward me properly for working me to the bone like this,] Kurumi said while enjoying the head pats. And in truth, Kurumi had a lot to do from keeping an eye on the Acalanatha, and letting Haru train was already hard enough with her current body, on top of that she had to keep an eye on Haru's flames so that they don't get out of control.

[There is no way I won't, so tell me if you have something in mind,] Haru smiled and took a sip of his coffee sinking in his comfy chair (Courtesy to Queresha enchanting it).

Queresha goes all out when Haru is involved even the coffee mug he has in his hand is enchanted to keep the coffee at the perfect temperature which is 71 Celsius for Haru's coffee, it will remain like that even if you leave it as it is for the whole day and the taste won't even diminish.

[Fufu~, I have something in mind would you like to hear it~?] Kurumi spoke in a teasing tone looking at Haru.

[Go on,] Haru spoke with a smile. He was no stranger to Kurumi's teasing side since he was often someone who had been her target since he was a kid.

But just as Kurumi was about to continue her little plan…..

Knock* knock*

"This is Lance Varay I am here to deliver a letter," Varay's static voice came inside the room.

"Come in," Haru said plainly and the door opened allowing Varay to walk in front of Haru's desk looking at him plainly before giving him a letter.

Haru took it without saying anything and looked at the content making him smile a little.

'At least Agrona didn't let me down,' Haru thought as he rolled up the scroll and kept it in his office drawer before looking at Varay who had her eyes on the macrons in front of Haru.

"Would you like some?" Haru asked with a small smile.

"…Thank you for your kindness but I would have to refuse since I have to be somewhere," Varay answered.

"That is a shame, thank you for delivering the message," Haru said as Varay bowed a little and exited the room quickly.

[She wasted a good opportunity, so many girls would've killed to have that chance, I guess ignorance is bliss,] Kurumi spoke while shaking her head.

[What do you mean by that? Anyway, I think it is because she was raised that way so it makes sense for her to behave like that,] Haru said while tapping the armrest of his chair.

[If it is that I can easily change it,] Kurumi spoke nonchalantly.

[How?] Haru asked with little curiosity since changing someone's nature isn't easy especially when the one in question is indifferent. Haru knows this since he had a friend like that as well.

'That guy was quite the pain in the ass, he only spoke when he needed something,' Haru thought before shaking his head since that guy was quite fun to annoy.

[It is as easy as writing for me, I can make her the lusty knight that won't be satisfied unless she gets a pounding, Hehehehe~,] Kurumi said with weird laughter as Haru looked at her with twitching eyes.

[Seeing that cold and indifferent face morph into a depraved one, fufufu I want to see it now, how about it Haru wanna give her a pounding?] Kurumi turned to Haru.

[Ok, stop don't do something like that, let's not do something like this because it will change her character,] Haru said giving Kurumi a light chop on her head.

[Oh no need to worry, if I change how she is no one will know the change since it would be rewritten in their memories, She would be like this in the original novel and in all of the infinite timelines as well,] Kurumi said trying to convince Haru.

'So she means that if she changes her character here it would be the same in the original world? I don't want to think how many laws this is breaking,' Haru sighed.

"Don't do it," Haru said plainly since he had no wish to see this happen.

[Mou! Ha-Kun is so stiff, why can't you have some fun?] Kurumi pouted angrily.

'This….is your definition of fun?' Haru sighed as Kurumi was starting to act like his friend now.

[Well, I am having fun now anyway so I don't think there is any need to do something else,] Haru spoke to Kurumi while scratching her chin.

[Fufufu, Ha-kun is getting naughtier by the day,] Kurumi snickered at Haru's obvious attempt to change the topic by distracting her and it worked like a charm since she transformed into her human form jumping on him.

After a peaceful day at the academy, Haru came home with Kurumi sleeping on top of his head. He entered the house and was greeted by Queresha who took off his coat.

Haru was currently sitting on the living room sofa reading bleach with Queresha after having a relaxing bath and sumptuous dinner, while everyone else was up to their own thing.

Things have been very peaceful but Haru knew that it was about time it will be disrupted for a brief period.

Everyone was gathered in the living room since Haru called for them, they all looked curious about why he called them over while Queresha, Zenobia, and Kanae had some guesses about the reason.

"Haru tell us why did you call us? And why is Oppa here as well?" Jin-ah addressed the elephant in the room.

"Are you saying that I can't be here?" Jin-woo asked her with a flat look.

"….No? Yeah! No, since this is our house you aren't allowed here, Get out NETHER GODDESSES KICK RENDERING THE HEAVEN IN SHAMBLES OUCH* W-Why does it still hurt when I kick you, I became so strong as well," Jin-ah spoke in pain after she rolled on the ground after kicking Jin-woo.

Jin-woo looked over at Haru as if asking 'What is the meaning of this?'

"Don't look at me this is your Chuunibyou spreading," Haru shrugged and his words triggered Jin-woo greatly.

"I'll deal with you later," Jin-woo spat his words in anger, he came over here to look around the place since it interested him greatly.

Especially Aether which one of his new subordinates could use, and since Haru was already there to meet everyone while giving him the bodies of Aldir and Windsom so that he can extract the shadow from the corpses.

Jin-woo decided to come with Haru and Jin-ah to this world for a short stay.

"Ok, let's get back on topic," Haru clapped his hands together after he picked up Jin-ah and delivered her to the seat beside Alea. Everyone nodded since they were very curious about what Haru wanted to talk about.

"So, there will be a war,"
