《The Immortal Mutant Teen》Chapter 12 - Delusions and Another Bet
Advertisement
"You will be my husband" she meant to whisper that to him, but everyone heard her. Though she had that same cold look as always, these words caused her to have a small blush on her face, which added fuel to the fire.
"EHHHHHH?!?!?" Acheron, along with the rest of the concert hall, exclaimed.
A riot was about to start as people started to exclaim their surprise,
" Noo! My goddess has been taken!!"
"Onee-sama! How can you claim this wild man as your husband??"
"That bastard! I'll kill him!"
"Quick! Someone find out everything about this guy!"
"Aniki will not like this news…"
As both men and women had fallen into despair at her words, Acheron had already calmed down from his initial surprise.
"I don't care what kind of delusions you have in your head little girl, but I am not even remotely interested," Acheron said as he began to walk away again.
"I have decided! You will be my husband!" she exclaimed at his back.
Without turning around Acheron responded to her unreasonable words "Decide on someone else! I am not interested in little girls who are full of delusions!"
Acheron had reached the double doors but before exiting, slightly turned his head and looked at her from the corner of his eye, "But if you want to play music again, I don't mind doing it once in a while" he gave her a playful smile before walking out.
Both Sakura and Akeno not knowing what to make of this situation quickly followed him out and caught up to him.
"Hey, Belau-kun! You don't seem to be one to be into music!" Akeno said,
Acheron smiled at her before saying "There's only one thing I love more than music, and please, you guys can call me Acheron too"

Akeno had a huge smile at his words, she felt a little closer to him, "You can call us by our first names too"
Sakura gave a weird look at Akeno, she found that Akeno was acting weird around Acheron, other than her brother, she had never taken the initiative to be close to a man. She started to get suspicious of her best friend.
"Okay, I think its time for our next class, could you guys show the way?" Acheron smiled as he looked at his watch.
"Shit! We are going to be late for Kobayashi-sensei's class! That's the one teacher you don't want to be late with! We only got 5 minutes left! HURRY!" Akeno yelled at Acheron, while Sakura had already sprinted by Akeno.
As they neared their classroom with a minute to spare, Acheron slowed down and asked them a question "Hey, I met a teacher this morning, do you guys know who it is?" Acheron continued by explaining how the teacher looked like.
"Oh! You must have met Kobayashi-sensei!" Akeno said "she teaches our first period which is mathematics class"
"I hear she is also one of the instructors at the sword arts club" Sakura added.
Acheron had already noticed that she could wield a sword, she had the air of a swords-woman when he met her. He couldn't help but find her even more interesting, he had also noticed something else about her. "She must be strong then"
"Of course," Sakura says, "My brother says she is a level above him, bordering the grandmaster level"
"Maybe I will join the swords arts club and see if she is all that" Acheron couldn't help but joke.
He could tell the teacher had some secrets better left uncovered unless he wanted to bring more attention to himself.

They entered the classroom and sat down just as the bell rang. He found Kobayashi-sensei glance at him before she started her lesson for the day. Acheron found that everyone was quiet and were diligently taking notes, he instead, started to look out the window.
He found that this level of calculus they were doing, was something he already knew. Sakura and Akeno, noticing his absentmindedness, couldn't help but shake their heads at him, the thought that Acheron found the lesson too hard and had quit listening. Time passed until the bell rang again.
"Hey Acheron, if you found the lesson too hard, we can let you borrow our notes so you can catch up," Akeno said.
Acheron hearing her call for him snapped out of his daydream and turned towards her. He noticed students packing up and leaving, he hadn't noticed the bell ring. "No need you guys, I already know all this"
Surprised at his words, Sakura couldn't help but think he was lying. Even though she did not excel in math like those mathematics geniuses, that live and breathe numbers, she found this topic difficult for her. "You don't need to lie about not knowing a topic, I found it quite difficult and challenging"
"Just because you found it difficult, doesn't mean others did too, Sakura" He gave her a teasing smile, he had already noticed she was a sore loser from the moment he met her.
"Well, Thursday is a Test day for all classes, we will see who is superior then" Sakura smugly said to him. The thought of a new kid suddenly besting her in what should be her forte, annoyed her. " I have ranked first in collective scores since last year, there is no way you can beat me! It has already been a month since school started, there is no way you can catch up!"
Acheron loves a challenge, he had never backed away from one before, and he won't start now. His smile grew wider at her words "We will see who reigns supreme Friday morning when the scores are out"
Akeno couldn't help but laugh at Sakura's tantrum. She knew her best friend was highly competitive, in turn, it also made her biggest sore loser in the world.
If Acheron did beat her, she won't hear the end of her complaints for weeks, and she would not stop challenging him until she won. "Come on guys, quit bickering with each other, and let's leave! We still have a lot to cover on the campus tour!"
Hearing her Akeno said, they both agreed and followed her out. The rest of the day was uneventful, other than the fact that rumors had started to spread about Acheron and the first goddess of the school, Hoshiko Kotone.

So, this is my attempt at "Something different" I would love feedback or just your general opinion. But most of all, I hope it entertains. Enjoy!

"In my defense, I hadn't actually been trying to get hit by a truck." Artemis wakes up alone in a giant futuristic facility with no hint of where she is, how she got here, or what this means. Yet within two weeks, she is shot at with all the guns, a voice is beginning to speak in her head, and she is tormented by a seemingly sentient and possibly trollish space Roomba. Her only hope is Scarlet, another girl who is a complete stranger and almost shot her in the head. Oh, and she has fox ears and a tail. That is possibly worth mentioning. Artemis is not a nerd. She has never heard of the isekai genre, she can't fight worth a damn, and the blue-collar skills she learned at her community college are absolutely useless in a universe where technology is often indistinguishable from magic. She only has one thing going for her: A mysterious ability to interface with highly advanced technology left behind by the Antecessors, the long lost precursor civilization with technology that no one has been able to adequately replicate. Finding herself in a universe where civilizations are locked in an interstellar Cold War, where societies are so stratified that the aristocracy commands fleets of starships while slaves wash clothes with their hands, Artemis decides to run away from it all. She has a ship. She'll find a crew. She'll find a way to make a living at the fringes of civilization, learn how to cope with danger, and survive the affections of a universe where everyone is a cute girl with animal ears and tails.
