Chapter 95.1

    Mantis Shrimp

    This is the usual classroom at the chiropractic school.

    "Whoa, super fine vibration blast! (Trembling!)"

    "Oh, that''s great, Muto-san!"

    For some reason, the older man, Muto-san, showed strong interest in my invented super fine vibration blast. Thanks to repeated guidance and his unwavering effort, Muto-san was starting to master the [Moderate Vibration Blast].

    "Wow, Zucky, we finally made it this far, thank you!"

    "Congratulations, Muto-san! (High-five!)"

    When Muto-san opened his practice, he wanted to make this vibration blast his selling point. He started his second life after leaving his corporate job, and I hope he does well.

    However, he might want to lose a little weight. The flesh under his chin quivers when he releases the vibration blast and can''t help but induce laughter.

    After enjoying our time at the chiropractic school, we took a bath at the hot spring public bath.

    With my newfound muscular physique, I couldn''t fit in my home bathtub without transforming. So, going to the public bath became a daily routine.

    "Phew, what a nice bath. It''s best to stretch your limbs in a spacious bathtub. Huh?"

    As I prepared to take out my motorcycle after coming out of the bath, I noticed a message from Serai-san.

    It''s 6:00 PM, and I received a message about ten minutes ago. It says, [Master, can I come over to hang out?] Well, [Sure, but there won''t be a bath or dinner tonight], I replied. Serai-san responded with, [That''s fine].

    What could it be? It doesn''t seem like he''s after a bath or a meal. Oh well, either way, I''m not very impressed. It''s not easy for me to endure, you know.

    Anyway, after finishing my shopping and returning home, changing into casual clothes, Serai-san knocked on my door without prior notice. Huh, he''s early. Could it be that he was already on his way when he sent the message?

    (What!? Wait, Serai-san could she be doing it while talking!?)

    No way! Serai-san, how careless Wait, this is something regular people can''t hear, right? It''s because I''m about 20 times more sensitive than normal people

    Oh no! If Serai-san knew I heard such embarrassing sounds, he might be mortified. Yeah, I didn''t hear anything! La la la! I didn''t hear anything!!

    Coughing exaggeratedly, I arrange the things Serai-san bought on the table.

    "(Clink! Knock, knock) Ugh, I thought I was going to wet myself!"

    "Sorry about that. There wasn''t time for an explanation"

    But I''m just relieved that Serai-san didn''t turn it into a disaster.

    If Serai-san had ended up in a real mess, I would have to dash out to buy replacement pants, and Serai-san would have to shower in the cramped space between the mantis shrimps'' filled bathtub and the toilet.

    "Mmm So, what about these little shrimp?"

    Serai-san glares at me with a serious expression.

    "They''re mantis shrimp I caught them in a nearby river after dropping you off the other day. I thought we''d have them for dinner today"

    "Huh So you mean we''re going to cook them?! I want to do it too! (Yay!)"

    Ah, Serai-san''s mood brightened up when she found out we were going to cook. She''s really easy to read at times like this.

    "Great! Let''s have you help, Serai-san."

    "Yeah! What can I do?"

    Serai-san is really excited now that she knows we''re going to cook.

    Alright, let''s cook together then. Let''s get cooking!
