When I reincarnated in the world of a gal game, I had memories of all the heroines being conquered, and it turned into a chaotic situation... - Chapter 13
“Hey!? Why are you my partner?”
“I don’t know. Ask the officials who paired us
“Ugh, despite being a commoner, you still have such an insolent attitude.”
“Sorry, I didn’t have a good upbringing.”
“Ugh! This guy…!”
“Well, don’t say that. Let’s get along. It’ll be better for the assignment that way.”
“Who would want to get along with you!”
This conversation took place between me and Himeno when we were driving the car owned by none other than the rich lady sitting next to me, we were headed on the way to the location for the assignment.
Of course, the above conversation took place when I was trying to conquer her in the game.
“Riku~♡”
“What?”
“Hehe~. Nothing!”
This exchange has been going on for a while, not just this one. Himeno leans her shoulder against me in the back seat, and she has been tracing heart shapes on my thigh with her finger. Probably, if I would have to link it, it would become a heart tattoo.
It’s annoying, but being touched on the thigh by an extremely beautiful girl, I can’t help but not be indifferent. There’s a part of me that’s grateful for it.
“We have arrived. Regarding the assignment, please inquire with the shop owner.”
The car stopped, and the back door was opened by the driver. Himeno and I got off after the last check to ensure we didn’t miss anything.
In front of us was an old-fashioned café. Thanks to the glass exterior, we could easily peek inside.
A calm atmosphere with a wooden floor. The ecstatic lighting from the lamps, and the tables and chairs looked like sophisticated European furniture. This is no typical café counter; it feels more like an eat-in exclusive cake shop than a coffee shop. No customers were inside the shop, and the twilight time makes the place feel lonely.
I’ve seen this shop before, and I’ve worked here.
“Nostalgic, isn’t it? Oh, I made a mistake, Riku.”
It seems that Himeno also remembers it. If that’s the case then my memory isn’t wrong about this shop.
Following the plot of the story. Well, I haven’t done anything, so there shouldn’t be any butterfly effect.
“Well, let’s go in, Riku.”
“Yeah, let’s head inside.”
Himeno and I entered the shop, and a man came out from the back of the shop.
He was in his late thirties to forties in appearance. He looked stylish, yet with a calm uniformed appearance, combined with his own calm atmosphere, he exuded an elegant coffee shop master vibe. However, that atmosphere crumbles as his eye corners drop into a smirk.
“Welcome, young lady.”
Himeno responded with a sharp tongue,
“Hmph, a pitiful commoner. Well, fine. What’s this school assignment about?”
She said those words in the past, but her future action should be similar or with little difference.
But the words which she said not only surprised me but the shop owner as well.
“Thank you for the warm welcome.” She said with a gentle smile.
“Did I say something strange?”
“N-no. From what I heard from the school, I was told that you were a dignified person.”
“Hehe~. It’s true that I’m dignified, but I’m not a person who loses courtesy.”
“Huh? I apologize for this.”
“It’s alright. We are going to be in your care from now on. Even if I bow my head, there’s no reason for you to do the same.”
I watched this exchange with a cold gaze.
She is someone who doesn’t lose courtesy? You were definitely that kind of person. And at this point, you were definitely not the kind of person who would bow your head.
I think that the Himeno now is the Himeno who completed the route and grew in personality. She probably really thinks that way, so I shouldn’t mind.
“Now, could you tell us about the assignment?”
“Y-yes. Please take a seat at the table.”
We were guided to our seats, and the shop owner continues,
“The school assignment this time is to work part-time at this shop for a week. Your grades will be determined based on your contribution to the shop.”
Hearing this, Himeno exclaims,
“What!? Are you telling me, a noble lady, to do the same thing as a commoner!?”
I expect her to make a fuss, but the current Himeno is different, of course.
“Thank you for letting us know. Well then, I may be in your care for a week, but please take care of me.”
“T-this year’s young lady is quite something…”
Ignoring such exchanges, I decide to think about the first assignment, the part-time job.
The outline of the episode in this assignment is as follows.
The assignment given by the school is to work part-time at the cafe to understand the common people as the next leader. The test will be determined by the contribution to the shop.
Himeno and I will work part-time at this café, but things won’t go well at first.
Himeno, who has been raised as a young lady, can’t do things like washing dishes, cleaning, and serving customers properly. On top of that, she protests against imitating commoners due to her pride.
It didn’t go well, and as expected, we ended up at the bottom in the mid-term results announcement.
Himeno decided to change her attitude and work hard, but it was too late. Even if she does the same things as other students, her ranking won’t change.
Seeing Himeno depressed and crying, I decided to do my best, and together with Himeno, I created an opportunity to turn this run-down shop into a popular one. And our efforts were recognized, and we managed to get first place.
Well, that was the previous story. Naturally, this time the development is different.
“As we are working here as part-timers, may I address you as Sir?”
“Y-yes, of course.”
“Well then, Sir. I have a suggestion, though it may be forward.”
“S-suggestion?”
“Yes. I don’t intend to finish this by just doing part-time work here.”
“Hmm. What do you mean?”
“I want to make this shop a popular one.”
The Coffee shop owner was taken aback, but Himeno continues,
“This café, while having an atmosphere that appeals to women, doesn’t have a specialty dessert, does it?”
“W-well, we specialize in coffee with a commitment to roasting.”
“Yes. The aroma is still nice, and it must be excellent coffee. However, it’s a shame to only use that roasting technique for coffee.”
“Th-that may be true.”
“So, wouldn’t it be nice if there were desserts that utilize that roasting technique?”
“…Certainly. If we had that, female customers might increase.”
“There is a dessert called Cassata, which uses roasted nuts. It’s cold, so it would go well with coffee.”
“Well, yes. I can make Cassata, and I’m confident in choosing coffee that complements it, but to let people know…”
“Of course, I have thought about that. As the daughter of the prestigious Yukishiro Family, distributing flyers in the common people’s area is a rare sight, and the media will surely be interested. If that happens, the Cassata from this shop will undoubtedly become popular in the news to the point they might put it as the main Headline.”
“H-how amazing. My shop might become popular too…”
“How about it?”
“Y-yes! Thank you! I can’t just stay like this. First, let me…”
The owner jumped into the back of the shop.
I watched all these rare interactions and thought hard.
This game becomes really boring when the heroines steal my idea and implement it flawlessly right in front of me. But alas, we had to face this reality.
“Hey, Riku?”
“What is it, Himeno?”
“Now that we have things to do, let’s work hard together while being lovey-dovey!”
“Ah, yeah.”
“Hehe~, I’ve also come up with ways to win your affection over this period, so look forward to it!”
I couldn’t nod to that honestly.
