The Infinite Powerhouse Mixed in with Sakura Dormitory

"Since it's inconvenient for me and Mitaka Jin to be male, you can leave the task of taking her to and from school every day to us."

"Besides, the teacher should have known about this, right? Why didn't she say so earlier? I was so busy this morning."

Although Jiang Jing had already decided to keep Mashiro as a pet, he still wanted to express his opinion. Moreover, if they could really divide up some of the work, he would be able to have more free time in the future.

Feeling bored and having nothing to do doesn't mean Jiang Jing likes to create trouble for himself. He would rather just lie there and daydream.

Chapter 9 Damn Youth

"Sigh... There's nothing I can do. Shiina has been studying art and drawing since she was little, so she lacks some common sense and is a bit different from ordinary people." Chihiro Chigoku lazily replied to Jiang Jing's question.

“Is this just a small problem? You are her teacher and also her caregiver. I think you, as the teacher, bear the main responsibility.” Jiang Jing retorted without backing down.

“This meeting is pointless. What you’re saying is giving me a headache.” Mitaka Jin pushed up his glasses, looked at Jiang Jing and shrugged. “Think about it, I only come back to stay occasionally each week. I simply don’t have the time.”

"And you want Misaki to take care of someone? That's even more impossible. Not to mention me, her childhood friend, you've been here for so long, you know what kind of person she is."

"As for relying on Teacher Qianxun, she's busy with matchmaking events every day, trying her best to sell herself. Do you want her to be single for the rest of her life because she has a child to support her?"

After Mitaka Jin finished speaking, although he was being demoted, Sengoku Chihiro and the other person beside him nodded hurriedly, looking at Jiang Jing across the table with an expression that said, "Don't count on us."

As for the other person at Sakura-sou, the recluse Akasaka Ryunosuke, there's even less hope. Kanda Sorata hasn't seen him leave his room in the six months since he moved in.

"Don't make it sound so bad. There's always a solution to a problem, isn't there? For example, Senior Ren could take on more daily tasks." Jiang Jing wasn't buying it.

"Impossible. I'm Mami, a fourth-year student in the drama department, on Mondays I'm nurse Noriko, and on Wednesdays I'm at the flower shop... I might not even come on the weekends, how could I possibly have time?" Mitaka Jin calculated the time with a troubled expression.

"You're really busy, but I always feel that you're in some danger if you continue like this." Jiang Jing shook his head speechlessly, somewhat admiring the humanoid self-propelled cannon chief, but wondering when he would be stabbed in the back.

"I didn't do anything wrong, what danger could I be in?" Mitaka Jin said somewhat awkwardly.

At this moment, Chihiro put down her beer, glanced at him, and said, "You'd better be careful. As your teacher, I'm reminding you not to get involved with married women, whether it's morally or ethically."

“Cough…” Mitaka Jin’s expression stiffened, because he had almost been discovered by Kana’s husband, who worked at the flower shop, a while ago.

"However, I don't approve of Mitaka getting too close to Shiina. After all, she's my cousin, and I can't just stand by and watch her get hurt. So Kanda, don't count on him."

To Chihiro Sengoku's words, Jin Mitaka simply smiled.

Ding!

Just then, a dialog box popped up on another notebook on the table, a message from Ryunosuke Akasaka in the room.

"I thought there was something important to discuss in the meeting, but it turned out to be such a trivial question. Don't bother me with this kind of thing again." After saying that, the profile picture in the lower right corner turned gray, indicating that the other party had gone offline.

"Indeed, there's nothing to discuss about this. Kanda is the only one in Sakura-sou who has the time and is the most suitable. Let's leave it at that."

"From now on, Shiina is in your care. Oh dear, I'm a bit full. I'll go upstairs and work out to digest." Holding a beer bottle in one hand, Chihiro waved and went back.

"I agree. I'll leave it to Sorata. Goodbye." With that, Mitaka Jinya picked up his phone and prepared to leave. It was Tuesday, and he was going to stay overnight at Nurse Noriko's place.

Watching Jin Mitaka's departing figure, Misaki Kamiigusa's eyes dimmed slightly, but she immediately regained her usual energy and jumped up: "Meeting adjourned! I still have a lot of my animation to redo, everyone do your best~ do your best~"

Suddenly, only Jiang Jing and Shiina Mashiro, who was sitting quietly to the side, were left in the living room, seemingly oblivious to whether she understood what he was saying.

"Uh... I did expect this, but I really do seem that reassuring." Jiang Jing stroked his chin. "So, at my core, I'm actually a good person."

"Sorata."

"Um"

"Please take care of me from now on." Sitting to the side, Shiina Mashiro looked at Jiang Jing and bowed slightly.

“Actually, I think you should say ‘Please guide me for the rest of my life.’” Looking at the expressionless girl in front of him, Jiang Jing suddenly put his hand on her head and ruffled her smooth long hair.

"Sorata is so annoying."

Looking at the girl's calm, or rather, emotionless expression, Jiang Jing advised, "Your 'I hate it' is not convincing at all. You should make an angry face, raise your voice, and show some anger in your eyes."

……

At 7:30 in the morning, Jiang Jing had already prepared breakfast: golden fried fish fillets, rice, fried tofu, and miso soup.

Today was supposed to be Shiina Mashiro's turn, but if we count on her, no one should eat breakfast. Besides, Jiang Jing is quite picky about food, so it's better to cook it ourselves.

"You're starting to look like a stay-at-home husband. I didn't expect you to adapt to your new role so quickly." Chihiro Sengoku took a can of beer from the refrigerator, then picked up a plate and took a single serving of breakfast from the counter.

"What else can we do but sulk like a child?"

As she spoke, Misaki Kamiigusa rushed down from the second floor in a flurry of activity, leaping and bounding.

"Wow, junior, you're amazing!" With that, Misaki Kamiigusa picked up a piece of fried fish with her hand.

"Huh! Didn't you prepare a lunchbox today, junior?"

"We don't have enough ingredients. Last night's meal used up all of Sakura Dormitory's living expenses for the week, so please remember to go shopping after school today. I think it's your turn to be on duty today, so I'll have to trouble you."

Meat is very expensive in Japan. Yesterday, I missed those dishes because I hadn't eaten them in a long time, so I ate all meat and spent a week's worth of groceries at Sakura-sou in one go.

However, this amount of money was nothing to Misaki and the others.

"Ah... I have to eat at the student cafeteria again today. I was looking forward to learning what delicious bento boxes they would make today." Misaki Kamiigusa sighed.

"It's all your fault for not buying more yesterday, junior. If you don't have enough money, you should pay for it first."

"You think I'm like you, senior? I'm dirt poor." Jiang Jing shook his head speechlessly. He also felt a bit of a headache when he found out about this yesterday.

Because he is very poor now, as a high school student from an ordinary family, the living expenses sent from Fukuoka each month are barely enough for him to get by, and he has no money to cook something nice for himself.

It seems I need to find a way to make some money sometime. Jiang Jing's eyes seemed thoughtful.

As for Misaki Kamiigusa, don't let her status as a senior high school art student fool you. She's made a fortune selling the copyrights to several wildly popular anime series in the past two years, enough to allow her to retire right now. She's a true rich woman.

“That’s true, I forgot you don’t have any money, junior.” Misaki Kamiigusa nodded, completely oblivious to whether her words would cause a ton of harm to a teenager.

Fortunately, Jiang Jing was no ordinary teenager and didn't take her words to heart. "Looking at your self-righteous words, I feel that I need to earn some money to prove myself."

"Alright, you guys eat first. I'll go wake Shiina up." With that, Jiang Jing walked down the wall, wiped his hands, and went upstairs from the kitchen counter.

"How come I never noticed before that Kanda is so reliable? It's only in the last couple of days that things have changed. Could it be because of love..."

"Damn youth..."

Watching Jiang Jing's composed figure as he left, Chihiro Sengoku, who thought she had guessed something, looked displeased.

Please remember to vote for me! The results are terrible; I don't know if I'll be able to get a contract...

Chapter 10 The Unpredictable Weather, and a Dragon

"Don't forget to wear your underwear. Also, why is it such a mess today when I tidied it up so nicely yesterday?"

In Shiina Mashiro's room, Shiina Mashiro was taking off her pajamas to change into her Mizutaka uniform, while Jiang Jing was tidying up the underwear scattered all over the floor with a bit of a headache.

"Draw comics." The girl awkwardly put on her clothes, uttering a few words blankly.

"What does drawing comics have to do with this?" Jiang Jing looked at her strangely, not caring that she was only wearing panties and pink... sorry, his eyes were very clear, and he only looked at Shiina Mashiro's beautiful body with an appreciative gaze.

It's not that Jiang Jing isn't interested in women; it's just that Shiina Mashiro doesn't have any concept of gender difference, nor does she have any idea of ​​love or liking.

Shiina Mashiro now only sees Kanda Sorata, who takes care of her, as her owner and nanny, just like her good friend, the British girl Rita, who has taken care of her for many years.

Given Jiang Jing's personality, if he were with a girlfriend he had feelings for, he would definitely take the opportunity to take advantage of her every day. However, he couldn't do that to Shiina Mashiro, who doesn't have these concepts in her mind right now.

He, Jiang Jing, once a great demon god who instilled fear in many worlds, the sharpest claw in the Nightmare Space, still possessed dignity and disdained such despicable acts.

"Sorata is useless, he doesn't understand." Shiina Mashiro said calmly, her head down as she buttoned her clothes.

"I think this is a problem with your communication skills." Jiang Jing shook his head. "Alright, hurry up and get dressed and go downstairs for breakfast."

It was already eight o'clock when Jiang Jing brought Shiina Mashiro, who had been combed up, down the street. Sengoku Chihiro and Kamiigusa Misaki had already left. Just then, a light rain began to fall from the gloomy sky that had been overcast since morning.

Earlier, Shiina Mashiro had wet her shirt while washing her face, so Jiang Jing had to change her underwear as well, which wasted some time.

"Don't use your hands. There are chopsticks, and you have your own. Why would you eat mine?" As soon as she arrived at the table, Shiina Mashiro took the fried fish slices in front of Jiang Jing with her hands.

Japanese people like to eat in individual portions, which usually consist of a bowl of rice, a main dish, a side dish, and miso soup, just enough for one person.

"Kongtai's tastes better."

Jiang Jing, who had truly been keeping Shiina Mashiro as a pet, simply shook his head at her self-righteousness. Fortunately, he had prepared a lot in the morning, as his need for food had increased due to the bloodline modification.

"aim……"

Just then, the white cat Hikari, standing at Jiang Jing's feet, looked at Shiina Mashiro, its fur standing on end, and let out a threatening meow.

"Want some too?" Jiang Jing said, picking up a piece of fried fish for the very intelligent kitten. Then, the other kittens gathered around and meowed affectionately.

"8:20, looks like we're going to be late again today. Shiina, here's the umbrella." In the entryway, Jiang Jing took out a small transparent umbrella and handed it to Shiina Mashiro.

However, after Jiang Jing closed the door, he looked back and saw Shiina Mashiro standing under the eaves, reaching out her little hand to catch the water dripping from above. Although her face was expressionless, she looked like she was having a lot of fun.

"Stop playing around, it'll be a hassle to change your clothes if they get wet." Jiang Jing said, opening his umbrella and heading out.

"Wait a minute!" Jiang Jing suddenly called out to Shiina Mashiro, looking up at the distant sky, his slightly narrowed eyes revealing an astonishing light.

In Jiang Jing's eyes, dozens of miles away, beneath the dark clouds, a nearly fifty-meter-long, somewhat fat, jade-colored Western dragon was hovering in the air, its wings spread, shrouded in invisibility magic.

The ferocious dragon head raised its head to look up at the sky, and a powerful magical force emerged from its mouth. Then, a dragon breath that reached the heavens and the earth, but which ordinary people could not see or perceive, roared out.

boom!!

Energy surged between heaven and earth, a silent explosion resounding in Jiang Jing's ears. Then the sky suddenly cleared, and the dark clouds that had covered hundreds of miles dispersed, revealing a clear sky behind them.

As the giant dragon breathed its breath to disperse the clouds and rain, Jiang Jing's astonishing senses also detected the startled auras lurking beneath the city, which flashed by in an instant.

"A magical creature, a dragon, and judging by its rank, it should be at least at the fourth level of the Extraordinary Realm. Also, its aura doesn't seem to belong to this world. Heh... it seems this world is more interesting than I imagined." Jiang Jing chuckled softly.

"Giant Dragon, what is Sorata saying?" Shiina Mashiro, who was standing to the side, looked at Jiang Jing, who had suddenly called out to her and was now standing there motionless, with a puzzled expression.

Looking back at the dazed girl, Jiang Jing shook his head: "It's nothing. I was saying we don't need umbrellas anymore. Look, the sky has cleared up."

"It really is!" Shiina Mashiro watched as the dark clouds in the sky mysteriously dispersed in concentric circles, a look of surprise appearing in her usually emotionless eyes.

Although Jiang Jing found it strange that the dragon had used a huge amount of magic power to exhale and dispel the rain, he had no curiosity to find out the reason, nor was he interested in contacting those extraordinary creatures that revealed their aura.

Curiosity! Don't be ridiculous. Having traveled through so many worlds, what kind of creatures hasn't he seen? As for Jiang Jing now, as long as he's not provoked, he has no interest in exploring any secrets.

Because of Shiina Mashiro, Eike and the other person were late again today.

When Jiang Jing dropped Shiina Mashiro off at the second-year art classroom and returned to his own class, the first period was already halfway through.

Without any embarrassment or unease, Jiang Jing naturally opened the back door and walked in under the teacher's gaze and the admiring looks of his classmates.

"Kanda-kun, you're late again today."

Just as Jiang Jing sat down, preparing to lie down and take a nap, Qingshan Qihai, who was sitting in front of him, turned around and looked at him.
