I-It's-a-me, Mario!

Welcome back, mates!

Putting memes aside, as for GodSpeed28, I have only one thing to say; you don't need to understand his character at first. You don't need to delve in that much in the beginning, it will be revealed through the story. You're just going to enjoy the stupid shit he's saying.

Also, for the person who used GodSpeed28 name or if it is actually you, then damn. This is the problem readers and some authors have in their stories. OCs are something that can be either good or bad depending on how people perceive it. Authors or readers (not all, okay?) who likes OCs tend to think that OCs are some kind of self-insert (in most cases, they are but it's not in mine) so they wanted to pour all the good things onto this OC. Powers, looks, fames, girls and more things. They made him a literal Jesus or a fucking Anti-Christ who's perfect, no flaws at all.

Now, listen. Perhaps you hate Issei, and that's fine actually. I kind of have an idea why-because he's pervert.

But really, you think my OC deserves better than Issei does? What, steal all of his girls and his powers? Tadano was already blessed with having a second chance and getting to live once more with a decent start unlike his old life. That was already enough for him and he admits that. He never did want any extravagant life or amazing qualities that puts him above all people. He just wants to be a normal person who can perhaps get a good life and fulfill his duty as the Plot Guardian. Maybe get a beautiful girlfriend at the very most. That's it. That's all he wanted.

You probably thought this was a story where the OC replaced Issei or an Issei-bashing fanfic OR a self-insert/reader x Highschool DxD fanfic but sorry, it's not. If you're into that type of story and don't like this type, then I suggest you exit this story IMASUGU-RIGHT NOW and find the ones that fits your preferences.

With that out of the way, now! Thanks for the reviews! I'm glad you guys found this funny and enjoyable to read! Don't worry! Flames won't stop me from writing this! Also, see the tile of story? "The World of Highschool DxD is Unreasonably Tough for Mobs" or the alternative title that I want to but can't since it exceeded the title character limits; "The World of Highschool DxD is Unreasonably Hard for Mobs and Man, is It Tough being One!" This is actually taken from "The World of Otome Games is Hard for Mobs" and "Is it Tough being a Friend?" and maybe you guys already noticed it.

Well, nothing else left to say here so why don't we just dive straight in to the story?

Chapter 2:

"The Meet with a Kindred"

"Today for you Libras, you'll discover a surprising hidden side of someone close to you!" The morning television said to me.

I don't know why I remember it but it's better I did, perhaps it could potentially happen.

Okay, okay.

That aside, today is Wednesday, three more days until I get to hang out with Seika. Forgive me for doing that to those who found it to be rude or out-of-the-line (lol). It's just...can't help but simply stick to her. Maybe she has an essential info on Issei or perhaps, she actually has a big role in some side stories I didn't get to read since I died before doing it. Or maybe I'm way over my head and thought she's an important character who'll play an eminent role but is actually a heroine for a Plot Guardian who I can actually get closer with and better, marry. Yeah, that's maybe it.

...

...

...

Meh, who am I kidding?

That's not a possibility, not even a tiny bit.

Now, remember when I monologue about the harsh reality behind the Highschool DxD? The Society? Yeah, that. Actually, the society is pretty much the same as it is back from where I came from. I hate society, not denying that since I was a born loner through-and-through (err, kind of?) but this new me is not, I got friends here. Before this, before all this reincarnation thing, I'm actually a loner that didn't like attending school. Why? Because the superficiality of the people around there except for a selected few are pretty toxic for me. Friends with benefits, gold diggers, social ladders, social suicide, and NOT forgot to mention, the social media.

Trust me, I absolutely HATE social media. Things can get out of hand since the internet is where a lot of nasty things resides. While there are lots of lies in the internet, there's are some that spills the truth. Now, why is that?

The face of the people.

Once you entered the internet, the façade you wore will simply slip out and you reveal your true self to the internet. This is because the internet is where our actual identities are unknown. We're all strangers in the internet, we don't know each other's lives behind the screen. All we know is their face, their true face.

Which is why, my beloved friends, social media is a bad thing.

Cyber bullies, suicides, flames, ads and a lot of things!

I never really liked the social media.

Hot damn, I'm going full-on Hikigaya Hachiman [1] here.

"Hey, you see this?" Kazuya handed me his phone, seeing a picture of me but my face was covered with black lines so...this guy can look like anyone. "This is from the SL2C, in their webpage and their fakebook."

"Alphabets, huh? SL2C. And that name stands for...?" I urged him to answer.

"Seika Lobu-Lobu Club. (Seika Love-Love Club.)" He sighed. "I was once a member but I quit since those guys are insane."

I raised my eyebrows, "If even you're saying they're insane, then they must be." I look at the picture of me, being drawn all over with petty insults and kid jokes. "What did they told about me?"

"Actually, your name is not revealed, thankfully. But they are making fun of you in hopes you would leave Hyoudou-san alone." Kazuya replied, pushing the bridge of his glasses coolly. "Also, if this does not work then they'll resort to harsher tactics."

"Ugh, great." I groaned in irritation. "Thanks for telling me."

"Anything for a friend." Kazuya smiled.

"Even though I "stole" your crush?" I looked at him blankly.

"Heh, don't worry about that." He shook it off, he doesn't really seemed angry. "You're a good guy, I know that. Me, Satou and Hokuto were just jealous how you get closer to one of the first-year idols like some damned riajuu visual novel harem protagonist. But it didn't bother us on a personal level."

"..." I kept silent and stare blankly at him, "You know, it would've been better if you described those words differently but okay. Whatever." I shook it off with my hand. "Thanks again."

"Don't mention it." He said.

As you can see, yes. The society is fudging trash here if I'm to be honest, which I AM all the time. Okay, maybe not ALL the time but most of the time. There are some things I lie about but it's for the good. Never have I actually lied for something bad in this life. Yes, I did in the life before this but even then, I lie for like, what, buy a few mangas or volumes for the light novels? It wasn't anything harmful, it's as harmless as it could be.

Lunch break arrived and I took out a bento I've made for myself and my little sister (since she has the disastrous cooking trait so she HAS to be kept far away from the kitchen). Well, I like what I made. It's pretty decent, a normal lunch box created from a normal person. Ah, how blissful~!

I look around me, seeing a bunch of people talking to each other. Some ate while having a conversation, others just talk. At least buy some food in the cafeteria, you're going to be so unenergetic during the lessons. Oh wait, they always are regardless if they ate or not.

Anyways, no unusual sight which is good. I untie the cloth that was covering my lunch box and open the lid. Just then, I don't know how or why, the strong smell just erupted out from the lunch box! I immediately covered it back, looking around once more only to see that the people notices the smell and looked around for the source. I covered my bento and walked out normally, acting like some mob in the background making their way outside. Thankfully, they did not notice whose lunch box that emits such delicious aroma and I made my way out to a spot.

This spot is where I usually spend my time alone if I'm bored or find the class noisy. I sat on the left side of the wide stair case. I proceeded to open my bento, the smell was still delicious for some reason.

"How...?" I squinted my eyes and appraised the lunch box. "You smell delicious at home-sure, but how the heck did its aroma roams around the class like a damn spreading gas?" I sighed and just started to eat like a normal person. "Well, damn. This taste good, almost as good as Seika's." I said to myself and enjoyed it thoroughly. "Hmm...maybe Seika's cooking made me this skillful?"

As I enjoyed my food, I somehow noticed that someone is coming. Facing towards the direction of where I felt the presence, an ikemen just walks in, looking around with a confused expression on his face. He has a light-blue hair and dark-aqua eyes, looking like some fictional prince from an otome game. I narrowed my eyes as I've noticed something; wait, I never saw him in the story before. If he's this good-looking the he should be shown throughout the Highschool DxD anime but I didn't see shiz. Heck, I never once saw him for as long as I've been here! He also didn't wear the school's uniform. Who the heck is he?

I closed the lid of my lunch box and went towards him who hadn't notice me by a long shot. "Hey, um. You okay there?" I called, getting him to be surprised and looks at me.

"Whoa, there. I didn't notice you!" I bet. "Almost like you're not there."

"Um, yeah." I furrowed my eyebrows, finding his reaction to be quiet weird. "So, is there a problem? I've never seen you around here before."

"Actually-" Just then, our eyes landed on each other, causing this sudden tension between us as he halt his reply. "You..."

"!"

"!?"

Just then, we both frowned and jumped away, sliding on the ground in a fighting stance. Though, I'm a bit different since I was still holding my lunch box. We both glared at each other, the sky darken at our clash of aura as my eyes stared deep into his soul.

Just as I thought, he's-

"A Plot Guardian." He said, frowning with teeth shown gritting against each other. "Which means, there's a high possibility of..."

I smirked and narrowed my eyes, "Yeah."

We both continued to glare at each other, the tension grew stronger as time passes by. The clouds began to change its milky color to a more depressing grey, thunders cracked softly in the sky, emitting flashes inside the clouds. This situation couldn't be any more tensed as it is, no people can withstand this. This guy is also a Plot Guardian, I have something for him in that case.

A noticeable bead of sweat rolled down from his forehead, his face seems nervous. "So, you know all about it, huh? Well, tell me then..." He started, the tension instantly grew far stronger-this can crush anyone that may come by. "WHAT HAPPENED AFTER AVENGERS: THE INFINITY WAR!? TELL ME!"

"THEY KILLED THANOS BUT THE INFINITY STONES WERE DESTROYED SO THEY WENT BACK IN TIME TO GET THE STONES!" I replied, almost yelling with a serious frown.

"NANI!? IS THIS "Back to the Future" REFFERENCE!?"

"NO! BOTH TONY STARK AND BRUCE BANNER DISPROVE ALL THE BULLSHIZ THE MOVIE SAYS!"

"KHUWHAT!? YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT ALL THE MOVIE TELLS ABOUT TIME TRAVELLING IS BULLSHIT!?"

"YES AND WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!"

"SIMIMASEN DESHUTA!" He bowed and then went back into his stance. "AND THEN!? WHAT HAPPENED!?"

"THEY GOT THE STONES BUT WHEN YOU MESS WITH TIME, TIME WILL MESS YOU BACK SO THANOS FROM THE PAST CAUGHT NEBULA AND TRAVELLED INTO THE FUTURE!"

"OH, SNAP!"

"YES, SNAP INDEED!" I nodded vigorously, "BUT HULK WAS ABLE TO BRING BACK THE PEOPLE THAT HAS BEEN ERASED FROM THEIR TIME AND THE EPIC BATTLE BEGINS!"

"THIS IS GETTING GOOD!"

"YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!" I agreed. "BUT, AS DOCTOR STRANGE SAID, THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO WIN AND THIS WAS IT SO IRON MAN USED THE STONES TO SNAP AWAY THANOS AND HIS LACKEYS!" My face softens, "Oh, and actually, Captain America can carry Thor's Hammer before the epic battle which was the fight between Captain America, Iron Man and Thor against Past Thanos." I calmly added before entering back to my stance and frowned seriously. "SO IRON MAN'S DEAD DUE TO THE POWERFUL GAMMA THE STONES EMITS WHICH DESTROYS HIS BEING!"

"REALLY!? THAT SUCKS!"

"CAPTAIN AMERICA WENT BACK IN TIME TO RETURN BACK THE STONES BUT HE NEVER WENT BACK TO FUTURE 'CAUSE HE DECIDED TO STAY THERE AND MARRIED HIS LOVER!"

"THAT'S A MANLY AND ADMIRABLE CHOICE!"

"AND THAT'S WHEN THE FUTURE, WHERE THEY JUST SENT CAPTAIN AMERICA BACK, CHANGED A BIT WITH AN OLD STEVE ROGERS HANDING HIS SHIELD TO FALCON! WHICH MEANS FALCON IS THE NEXT CAPTAIN AMERICA!"

"HOT DAMN!"

"And that's where the movie ends. Believe it or not, the movie runtime is more thans three hours!" I went back to my normal state, smiling as I explained the last scenes. "That movie was great, you should see it. This is why I love most of the Marvel movies!"

"I CAN'T BECAUSE I DIED EXACTLY AFTER I WATCHED AVENGERS: THE INFINITY WAR IN THE CINEMAS!" He kept yelling.

"Shut up! I'm done with that skit so shut up or I'll make you!" I yelled back, irritated.

"S-Simimasen deshuta!"

A few minutes later

"So you're transferring here? As a second year?" I asked and he nodded.

"Yeah. But considering how old we actually are, you can drop the honorifics." He said, smiling. "I haven't properly introduced myself, have I?" He places his hand on each side of his waist, "My name is Hasegawa R. Shinju. Call me Shin, alright?"

I sigh, "Right, Shin." I smiled and crossed my arms, "My name is Kobayashi Tadano. Tadano's fine, Shin."

"Augh, so bright!" He suddenly said, causing me to raise my eyebrows as I was surprised to see his reaction.

Uh, wut?

He shielded his eyes with his hands, "This is the shine of an actual, genuine deserving protagonists introducing himself?" He looks at me with admiration, "So cool! So glorious!"

That's supposed to be my line! Look at yourself! You looked like the main target for otome games!

"Hah? What do you mean? I'm just a normal, average guy you can find just about anywhere in Japan." I replied, waving my hands off.

"So humble! You look completely normal, have a normal name, have no presence, simply hid behind the backgrounds but have an abnormal personality with enough attractiveness it just...agh!" He backed off with eyes narrowed, "T-This is the last Plot Guardian Void-sama had mentioned! I never see someone so content with just being himself-accepting everything there is, refusing to change! This is so protag-like it might just make me overloaded with excited chills! I might explode at this point!"

Seriously, what's with this guy!?

I'm just a normal mob! Please don't raise any unwanted flags! You might be able to change me into a bland, harem protagonist! I don't want any of that! I want to stay as I was, just a mob who happens to be a Plot Guardian! Please, j-just...just shut it with the flag-triggering comments!

"P-P-Please, stop. No, really! Stop!" I asked of him, yelling with bloodshot eyes.

Aaaaaannnddd, a few seconds passed our conversation went back to normal (phew).

"Are you also planning on watching the cast here? Won't you attract a lot of people, though?" We both sat on the staircase while I ate, keeping up with this conversation.

"No-well, I kind of was but I thought I might find a fellow kindred here." He said, his face formed into a serious expression.

"Why? Is something wrong, Shin?" I asked, feeling deep concern.

"It isn't just any wrong! It's completely wrong!" He said and stood up, "You know Genshirou Saji, right?"

My eyes widened for a second there before reverting back, "Yes. He died unlike the actual story, right?"

Shin nodded, "And that isn't just by coincidence. Nuh-uh!" He shook his head before he looks down, clenching his fists tightly. "I was afraid that the one that has gone rogue was the last of us since he was really strong but thank Void, it isn't! Only you're the one who can stop them!" He grips onto my shoulders, shocking me with the desperation in his eyes. "Please! We will fail as Plot Guardians if we don't do something about this!"

Okay, this is incredibly serious.

My bland looks immediately distorted into a serious frown, "Relax, Shin. I'll help." I calmed him down and urged him to sit back next to me.

"S-Sorry about that. Lost my composure for a second there." He breathes to calm himself down and sat back. "Void-sama did told you about the other two of Plot Guardian, right?"

I nodded, "Yes, he mentioned that there are three of us Plot Guardian with me being the last."

"Haa, man!" He sighed in relieve, "I'm really, really, really glad I met you!" He quickly said and faced me with a serious look. "I'm sure you've felt it already but there's something bad is happening and it may affects the whole Highschool DxD universe if we don't do something."

"Yeah, my "Bad Event Sense" were tingling for quite some time now. I was worried and tried to take action."

"You should." He said, sternly. "Because one of us has gone rogue."

My eyes widened a bit, "Gone...rogue? What do you mean...?"

"Exactly what I mean." Shin replied, "This happened even before season one of Highschool DxD began, they killed Saji and stole Vritra from him. This already affects the story since Saji play parts in some of the story arcs. And they're planning in stealing more powers from the cast." Shin slowly caressed his right arm, I can see some pain in it. "I tried to stop them from doing it, but they were strong-really strong." His face grimaced, "I was afraid that the last Plot Guardian became rogue since that would mean the end of us."

Okay, what do you mean?

Things were going well until you said that!

I'm just a mob, for Void's sake!

"But I forgot that the last Plot Guardian isn't someone who wants to achieve greatness of any sort. Void-sama mentioned that he's someone who wants to be normal, perhaps a bit special but that was all. He is someone who's kind, humble and caring among us." Isn't this exaggerating? "So when I saw the normal appearance of a guy but has the eyes who witnesses death, I knew we are saved."

I frowned in confusion before shaking my head, "Okay, okay, okay. That's enough with the flashbacks." I sighed, "How strong are you, Shin? And how strong are you compare to the rogue Plot Guardian?"

"I'm strong, almost nearly as strong as Vali's Balance Breaker in season 4." That's damn strong. "I also have something special implanted on my existence." He smiled.

"What is it?"

"Why, the game mechanic of course!" He grinned, "You know those Gamer x fanfics, now do you? I've read a bunch of them in fanfiction sites!"

"Wait the minute!" I held out my hands, shocked. "You have that cheating thing!? Game mechanics are literally the most OP thing to have!"

"Not exactly-no." Shin shook his head, "If it was, I may be able to beat the rogue Plot Guardian but I can't."

I assumed my thinking posture, coming up with the possibilities. "Do you think...do you think the rogue Plot Guardian also have the game mechanics?"

"You thought so too?" I nodded, "Yeah, I think they also have it. I thought it was weird for them to stare intently at me. It appears they were using appraisal at me to see my stats."

"That's very dangerous...also, does this person have a gender or not? You kept mentioning the rogue Plot Guardian as "they". Why is that?"

"I can't exactly tell their gender, the voice was a mix of various people-both guys and girls-and I can't see their body since it was overshadowed with overwhelming power. My appraisal also doesn't tell any gender regardless the target so I don't know." Shin replied, getting me to sigh and nod. "Last time I appraised them, they were already five times stronger than me."

"Wait, for real?" My eyes widened.

"Yeah."

Okay, this is really troubling. I'm a mob with "power beyond comprehension" but I don't know what my powers are! I can't face the rogue Plot Guardian knowing he's five times stronger than Shin and he is far stronger than me! I only have my Consecutive Normal Punches! That's all! Damn it...what should I do?

"This is a problem." I said.

"What is?"

"What did Void-sama told you about me, the last Plot Guardian?" I asked.

"Oh, he says that you have a power that goes beyond anything in here. Which means you're stronger than us and the Highschool DxD universe combined!" He replied excitedly as if some kid telling his parents about the Hero he likes.

"And that's where the problem lies." I stared at him with a serious expression. "I don't really know what my powers are-I've been wondering about it ever since I was reincarnated here."

"W-Wait, you don't know?" He asked and I nodded. "That's...a big problem."

"Exactly." I said to him. "How fast can you grow stronger?"

"Eh? Well, it depends on things I fight. Some may have large EXP given but even then, it would take days to level up by one."

"Okay." I nodded, smiling. "Shin, I want you to gain as much EXP as you can."

"Eh? What about the rogue Plot Guardian?" Shin asked, concern with my plan.

"He stole Vritra from Saji. I have a feeling he will do the same with Issei which means...?"

"He'll come here!" Shin's eyes widened in realization. "Good thinking!"

"Thanks."

"What're you gonna do?" Shin asked.

"For the meantime, I'm going to check on Issei, befriending him and keep a close eye in case something happens. With how I am, that's the best solution." I told him to which he makes an awe expression of. "Along the way, I'll try to find out what my powers are. Maybe there's a trigger to it so in case I don't-and there's a high possibility to that-I want you to become stronger and stronger."

"Alright, got it." He nodded.

"And don't forget, keep in touch would you?" I brought out my phone, "Let's exchange contact numbers first."

And so, the plan went in motion.

Two days later,

Kobayashi Residence

You know, I myself am surprised.

"Tadano-kun, did you really made this? It's so delicious!"

"Tch, Onii-chan is a better cook than I am! How humiliating...!"

I just happen to done with my morning bath and went down to make some breakfast only to find out that Seika is here and was having a conversation (a heated one, I assumed) with Sagiri. Their faces somehow has this sweet look to them I sensed they were actually agitated with each other. Although they changed to their normal selves, I can still feel the heavy tension in the air. Like a good normal person I am, I broke that tension and here we are.

Eating breakfast together which, if you don't know, is not common even between us siblings much less with Seika, a good friend of mine.

They were surprised (I don't know why Sagiri is though) to find out that I'm able to cook well.

"Ahahaha," I forced a laugh, making it look more of nervous laugh rather than a normal one. "Well, it's thanks to Seika though. Her bento inspired me."

I don't know why, or how but the tension I felt earlier crashed down upon us once more. Both girls had forced smiles on their faces as they closed narrowed their eyes, looking as though they closed it. I can see sparks shooting between them which just cause me to widen my eyes a bit, rubbed it and squinted to see clearly whether or not it's real. It's real alright, and what is with this development? I can see the fierce rivalry between them and I'm confused. I understand why Seika is though, I know she likes me but Sagiri? This girl hates her normal, average, mob-like brother!

"Really, Onii-chan?" She asked and I nodded, "By the way, I've been meaning to ask; what is the relationship between you and Onii-chan, Hyoudou-san?"

Seika took a bite of her food, "Tadano-kun and I are...well, we're good friends. For now."

Oi, oi.

You don't need to add more oil to the fire, Seika. Now you're just going to make Sagiri more work up over this silly banter of yours.

"Oh? Is that so~?"

Oi, oi.

You don't need to add more sweetness into your tone, Sagiri. Now you're just going to make Seika more determined in this silly banter of yours.

But for real, though.

What's with this development!?

"Onii-chan always spends his time at home."

"Ara, Tadano-kun always spends his time alone even at home."

Their narrowed eyes widened and they glared at each other, the tension grew 50 times stronger.

"I had rested my head on his shoulders many times before!"

T-Technically, yeah.

"Tadano-kun always uses his forehead to check my condition before!"

T-Technically, yeah.

"Grr, Onii-chan usually feels my underwear!"

Wut?

"Haha, Tadano-kun usually touches me in certain places when he wants to!"

You guys are going to create a misunderstanding here! First off, yes, I touched and felt Sagiri's underwear but that's because I hanged it to dry since she was too lazy! And when I touched Seika in certain places before, she meant by the shoulders, the waist to reach higher places and her feet when she got bruises! It's a good thing we're not in public 'cause, who knows what might've happened!? Seriously, what the hell!?

"Onii-chan sniffs up my butt!"

K-Khuwhat!?

"Tadano-kun gropes my breasts!"

Nani!?

"I get to touch his bare chest!"

Wai-

"I get to see him naked!"

Wha-

"I get to lick him!"

No-

"I get to taste him!"

Okay, you guys are lying at this point! What's with the vulgar talk as well!? We're eating breakfast, for Void's sake! Have some shame! You're going to make me lose my appetite here! Ugh! You know what? Whatever! I'm going to break this all by myself if you two don't want to stop! Both of you made me do this so blame yourselves!

"Onii-chan-/Tadano-kun-" They were about to continue arguing but I cut in.

"Uruse. (Shut up.)" I started, getting both of them to flinched and stiffened up at my threatening tone. "Uruse, I say."

"O-Onii-chan?"

"T-Tadano-kun?"

Both of them turned around to meet my glare, they started to sweat profusely at seeing me like this. You're the ones who made me like this, meet my Super Saiyan [2] self!

"We're eating here. Fighting in front of the table is a bad manner, sit back down and appreciate the food or I'll make you." I said with a stern tone maximized and they quickly nodded vigorously and sat down.

I internally let out a sigh. These girls are a piece of art, I'd say. I'm too busy thinking of that rogue Plot Guardian and what my powers are and both of them fighting isn't helping me one bit. Not to mention, Issei. Speaking of, what is Seika doing here in the first place?

As they ate quietly but still glared at each other, I opened my mouth. "Seika, what were you even doing here in the first place? I thought we were going out tomorrow?"

They both visibly jumped at my sudden question before Sagiri seems to be...surprised? I didn't know she has that kind of feeling towards me first of all. Second, how the hell did I had not noticed!? I'm not some dense harem protagonist, damn it! I refuse to accept that I did not know that! And thirdly, she...doesn't know about that right? Please, don't let her know...

"Eh!?" Sagiri stood up and slam her hands on the table, "Onii-chan is going out with this, t-this dorobo neko!? (thieving cat)"

"Sagiri, do NOT slam the table. That's rude manners." I pressed my tone, suppressing her shock. "And please don't misunderstand what I said. Me and Seika is going out as friends, she wanted to hangout just the both of us."

"That does not make me feel better!" She said, still yelling. "And you! What's with your obvious ploy!? What are you going to do with Onii-chan!?" She pointed her finger accusingly at Seika, who was eating her breakfast calmly.

"Whatever do you mean? I asked Tadano-kun if we can hangout and he agreed. What's the problem?" She replied back rather casually and again, they underwent a glaring contest.

I swear, I can already see two light coming out of their glares and striking each other. If only Nishimiya Shouko [3] is here, she would just silently comfort me. Man, I missed both her and Toshiyuki Karasawa [4]. Both of them are my childhood friend of which I saved from horrible fate...that can be fixed by time if only they follow their own story!

"Stop it, please." I asked of them and they stopped, causing me to sigh. "So why are you here, Seika?"

"Ah, that." She quickly took out a book and handed it to me. "You were a bit late after break period ended. Manabu-sensei gave us these and I forgot to hand it to you two days ago."

"Mathematics? Looks like he has a few homework for us." I said as I flip the pages, eyeing on the question marked for homework before closing it and smiled. "Anyway, thanks for going out your way to hand me this! You could've gave it to me tomorrow, you know?"

"I-It's a no problem." She replied, looking down smiling gleefully with cheeks flushed.

Oh, boy.

That's one of a Heroine's reaction.

"Onii-chan!" Sagiri called, puffing her cheeks as she did so. "Let's hurry up with the breakfast so we can play games!"

"Alright, alright!"

Haa, Sagiri is far clingier today than she is all these years. "Today, you'll discover a surprising hidden side of someone close to you!" Yeah, screw you too, morning television horoscope-luck-predicting program. After we had breakfast, Seika excused herself and I sent her home. Well, not really-I just walked with her until we arrive at the train station. Her house is a bit far away from mine which made me feel guilty. I wanted to just send her home properly, from here to her house but she declined. Since it was still morning, it was safe for her to go alone. Reluctantly, I said my farewell and I see her off.

So much for being a gentleman.

Today, I spent so much time playing games with Sagiri (by the way, I totally smashed her in Super Smash Bros or Super Crash Sis in this world) that I didn't realized we've been playing from morning to night. She was incredibly exhausted after that and immediately went to bed.

That night, I was busy-really busy.

Focus.

Focus really hard.

Find it.

Find the power that has been bestowed upon me.

"Grr!"

Where is it? Where is my power? I don't see it anywhere other than this empty landscape. A black space devoid of anything, just like when I met Void-sama. Why isn't it here? Do I really even have powers in the first place? If not then that would be a big problem.

"Where is it!?" I looked around and fly all over the space, "Where is my power!? I need to tap it!"

Come on!

Just give me my powers!

Anything!

Heck, I'd even settle for some power that requires arousal to work!

...

...

...

...

...

...

On second thought, forget it.

I opened my eyes, I'm back to where I was; sitting on my bed. Haa! This is so hard! Why can't I just tap onto my powers!? And Shin has his game mechanic installed in his being ever since he was a kid! Come on! I thought I was the most powerful between the other two Plot Guardian!? Man, this is so hard...

"Guess I'll give Shin a call." I quickly scooted over to the edge of the bed and stood up, taking my phone and dialed his number. "There."

The ringing started before someone took the phone. "Tadano? Is that you?"

"Yep." I replied. "Sorry to call you at such a late time but how are you doing?"

"Good. I've been levelling up but it isn't enough. I'll have to level up more." He replied, his tone is stern showing his seriousness.

"Well, bad news." I sighed, "I can't seemed to find what my powers are."

"That's a really bad news." He also sighs, "Very well. I'll have to level up much faster."

"Yeah, sorry about this." I smiled guiltily, "I'll do what I can to soften this situation a bit."

"No worries and I appreciate that." He replies.

"See you on Monday, Shin." I said as a farewell.

"See you too, Tadano."

I ended the call and plopped my back onto my bed.

I feel so useless! I need to find what my powers are before the rogue Plot Guardian come and take Issei's Boosted Gear!

Alright!

Back to training!

I sat, posing like my earlier sat stance and closed my eyes. Focus and tap onto that power!

Shuchu! (Focus!)

Shuchu shirou! (Focus properly!)

"HUOOOOAAAAHHHHHH!"

Shin's Apartment

After Tadano ended his call

Shin looked at his phone, confused. "Tadano..."

Ever since Shin met Tadano, there was one particular thing that he haven't told Tadano yet because he was incredibly frightened. Even though Tadano was nice to him and all, he can't shake this feeling that Tadano is more dangerous than he seemed, just like what Void says. And during their first meet, Shin saw something unusual that bothered him he couldn't shake it off from his head.

"What...what exactly are you?" Shin said to himself as he lifted his head up and stare at the ceiling.

Shin had a skill that he had been use ever since he was a mere baby; appraisal. It lets him know the stats of individuals no matter what they are or how strong they are. However, when he met Tadano, he tried to appraise him only to see that...

"The appraisal didn't work...?" Shin shook his head, "No, it did. It was only as if he wasn't there in the first place, like he didn't exist."

And so, Shin's investigation regarding what Tadano is started here...

OMAKE:

Tadano-kun no Nichijou
(The Daily Life of Tadano-kun)

(1)

"Tadano-kun and Childhood Friends I"

A long time ago, I met someone whom I never expected to exist in the world of Highschool DxD. Now, who could it be? Well, I've watched the anime of which this person resided in and I gotta tell you; it's a totally funny anime. It gives though, since it IS a comedy, nichijou (daily life) anime. It's packed with ridiculousness, relatability and a whole lot of comedy elements. I really loved it, I always laughed no matter how many times I've watched it. A particular character that was my favorite is the baseball cap-wearing guy; Toshiyuki Karasawa.

He always wears his baseball cap, shadowing his upper face. The reason? It happens so that he was attacked by a really powerful bully; Habara the Archdemon. She bashed his head with a rock before, leaving a permanent scar both physically and mentally on Karasawa. Poor guy.

Now what does this have anything to do with someone I met?

Well, I mean, you already know right?

I met the same guy, Toshiyuki Karasawa, in a normal town my father visited due to some unknown reason and he won't tell me. I was walking around the city, admiring the amazing views from the top and how normal it was. That was until I saw some familiar young faces there. I knew I recognize their faces somewhere and when it clicked, I immediately made a run for it. I thought I'd spare him from a terrible fate but that fate was inevitable. When I arrived, Habara had already bashed him on his forehead. Naturally, as a normal person, I went to help him. Oh man, that was one of the few tense and scary moment in this second life of mine. I fended her off, blocking every attack she could throw. These blows could've been fatal if I hadn't stepped in which made me confused. Wasn't there supposed to be a savior or something? If I hadn't stepped in, he would've sent to hospital! Coma even!

Anyway, I continued fending her off with Karasawa behind. I didn't want to hit back because she'll receive her punishment later, losing her brutality by the Legendary Kids. After defending Karasawa, I soon find an opening and took him somewhere else. She was beginning to lose her breath so I thought I'd avoided that or not, I may be the very cause of why she lost her brutality. When I took him somewhere safe, I treated him with bandages and we became friends. I spent a few weeks with him, getting to know and understand him more. A day after that, I returned back to my hometown. We exchanged our contact and we kept in touch with each other.

That was one of my many otaku dreams fulfilled and I couldn't be happier.

I usually visited him during my summer breaks for a few days or even weeks. Today, I was strolling around Kuoh City, spending my time relatively alone. I was planning on buying a few light novels (need to get the new volume of Seven [5]) or just go to a manga café. It was my usual alone time but then, something made it not usual.

I was walking on the sideways of the road when I came across a familiar face. "Wait, Karasawa?" I blinked in confusion. "You're Karasawa, right?"

Man, it's been more than a year ever since I've seen him! Ever since we entered the third year of our junior high, we were both busy with study and whatnot. I was aiming to get the invitation letter from Kuoh Academy and him studying for any all-boys high school. I guess his trauma of Habara was making him more cautious towards any girls so he aimed for an all-boys high school. Makes sense with that anime's story, if it properly had one.

I really missed him.

A smile crept on his face, "That's right..." He said and grabbed his baseball cap, seemingly trying to lift it up.

"Whoa, man! What the heck are you doing here?" I asked excitedly as he slowly lifted his cap up. "Are you here to surprise me?"

W-Wha...? Why is he trying to show me his face? I thought he was insecure about it? Wait, something is strange about him. Now that I completely observed him, I noticed something. Somehow, his hair is blonde? Wait, why did he dyed his hair blonde? Is he trying to be delinquent?

"That's right." Once he lifted his cap up, it revealed to be some blonde b-tard I know too well trying to act like Karasawa. "Karasawa-desu! (I'm Karasawa!)"

I didn't and don't want to care so I punched Yoshitake square on his face for trying to be Karasawa. "Shi-ne! (Die!)"

With tons of nose bleed, he said; "Simimasen! (I'm sorry!)"

"Tadano-kun and Childhood Friends II"

After I spent my time with Karasawa back in his hometown (back then a few years ago), I returned back to mine. The town I was in is really abnormal, which is something against my policy as a mob. To tell you the truth, I never really gone out of my home that much because of that. I usually stayed home, you know. Play games, PC games, console games, sometimes practicing my writing so I could publish a light novel someday. However, Kaa-san forced me to go out. She actually forced me to go out.

"Taa-chan, you need to go out sometimes! Or not, you will not have any friends!" Is what she said!

It's more of scolding rather than telling though!

Sorry, Kaa-san, but I'm actually an 18 year old guy who got reincarnated here. Calling me such name would only make me feel worse.

And so, I was out of the house where I spent a few hours strolling around about and avoiding any abnormal events. And that's when I met her.

Little Tadano was stopped dead in his tracks as his eyes widened upon seeing who was in front of him.

"Nishimiya...Shouko?"

I was shocked, really shocked. She is one of the characters I feel like deserve much more than she did. Her cute demeanor along with her quiet but cheerful personality, she deserved much more. And for some reason, she was here, not wherever the movie takes place. There isn't Shouya around, she was bullied by three boys surrounding her. I knew at the time that I had to do something and I did it with no hesitation or whatsoever.

"Don't you dare touch her!" Little Tadano yelled as he ran towards the bullies.

"What? Who the heck are you!? Trying to be a Hero!?" The leader of the bullies said and they all averted their attention from her to little Tadano.

"I'm gonna kick your butt if you do!" He yelled and prepared himself in a stance.

"Hah!? Who do you think you are!?"

"I'm a nobody! So shut up and go away or I'll make you!"

And so, the fight began with Tadano deliberately kicking their butts. When they were beaten up, they left, scarred for life. Tadano, while beaten up a bit with a swollen cheek and bruises everywhere on his body, walked towards Shouko with a smile. Sure, he could fend off someone like Habara the Archdemon who is incredibly strong but his opponent are three people which are older so it was inevitable that he receive some damage on the way. Shouko who witnesses all of it, let out a tear. She wanted to say that he wasn't supposed to fight for a stranger but she can't. Because she can't hear anything so she can't speak properly.

"Hey, you okay?" Little Tadano asks, still smiling. "Oh, me? I'm very okay! This is nothing!" He grins and raises his hands, "Name's Kobayashi Tadano! Yours?"

She gulped as she couldn't hear but she assumed he was asking for her name with his greeting and introduction postures so she took out a paper and write on it, proceeding to show it at little Tadano. "My name is Nishimiya Shouko."

For some reason, Tadano leaned towards her and wrapped his arms around her, hugging her as if they've known each other for a very long time. "Nice to meet you, Shouko. Let's get along from now on."

Damn it.

Now that I think of it, it was pretty cheesy. I can feel heat rushing into my cheeks. Yeah, I really missed her as well. I didn't get to ask her contact number before so I don't know where she is. I moved from my old town to here, in Kuoh City. After what happened in the morning with Seika and Sagiri, I can't help but miss her calming presence. Haa, I want to search for her but I have a job to do now. I doubt she's searching for me though. Perhaps she's forgotten about me?

*Ding dong~!*

Hm?

Now, who could that be?

"Hai! Coming!" I said and stood up from the sofa, walking towards the front door. "What would you need from the Koba..." My eyes widened upon a sight of who it was, "...yashi residence...?"

Standing in front of me is a girl with a light brown hair with matching eye color. She was wearing a school uniform consist of dark-blue blazer, blue ribbon as her necktie, white undershirt, light brown sweater worn underneath and a skirt with white and different shades of blue pattern. She looked shocked and so was I.

"S-Shouko?" I said but quickly realized that she couldn't hear me so I used the sign language I've been using. "Is that you, Shouko?"

She seemed surprised at how adept I am at using sign language and she responded back with hers, "Yes, it's me."

I didn't care at the moment and immediately brought her in a hug, somehow feeling the same warmth as I did when I first met her. "It's nice to meet you again, Shouko."

She didn't respond to what I said and just hugged me back.

From that point on, we exchanged contact numbers and texted one another. I don't know why but it feels as though I had raise a flag? But I didn't care, she deserve much more as I said before. This is the word of a mob so heed this. If it's a best friend or someone who can be there in her life she wants, then I'll give it to her. She is someone I should protect, no matter what.

I'll make her happy.

End of the Chapter:

"The Meet with a Kindred"

References:

[1] Hikigaya Hachiman, the protagonist of OreGairu or "My Teen Romantic Comedy Snafu". He's a loner with thoughts that may seem cynical to many people who are a bunch of riajuus but it was more of a realism. With the season 3 coming out, I can't help but make a reference of him here. He is my number one favorite rom-com protagonist after all.

[2] Super Saiyan, an iconic transformation from the Dragon Ball franchise. A form exclusive to Saiyans or Saiyan-Hybrids like Goku, Vegeta, Goten and Trunks. Once transformed, their hair will change to color gold and their eyes turn teal. It doesn't just change their appearance, it changed their powers as well. Their stats are multiplied by 50.

[3] Nishimiya Shouko is one of the main characters of both the manga and anime of "A Silent Voice/The Shape of Voice" or preferably "Koe no Katachi". She can't hear, a disability that is unfortunately dawned on her. Because of it, she is often be the target of bullies. She was bullied by the protagonist before and when they both grew up and met, the protagonist tried to repay all the bad things that happened to her by befriending her and make her happy. I made this reference because I prefer Koe no Katachi over "Kimi no Nawa" or "Your Name" and this is my opinion, don't take it too seriously.

[4] Toshiyuki Karasawa is a character from "Danshi Kokosei no Nichijou" or "The Daily Life of High School Boys". He's one of the best characters there is in the series and he's quite funny, even with his intimidating looks and serious personality. I made this reference because this series is what inspired me to make the comedic OMAKEs and thus, Tadano-kun no Nichijou was created.

[5] Seven is a light novel created by the same author who wrote The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs. I've read it and I had to say, it's quite good! It actually focuses on the protagonist's, Lyle's, character development and I love me some of that. I'd say give it a read.

Yeah, not much reference but hey. At least we got the cute and quiet Shouko in action, right?

Is she in the harem?

Yes.

But she's not in the supernatural side...probably.

So...best girl Shouko? Question mark?

Readers: "And here I thought Seika is the best..."

Me: "Yeah, sorry about that."

Anyway, as for the main story, now we're getting somewhere!

Another Plot Guardian appears and perhaps will be Tadano's best bro! I was thinking that I'd use Shin as the actual villain but I decided to go against it and made him a bro. I mean, bros before hoes, know what I'm sayin'?

Jokes aside, I think he'll work both ways but I prefer the best bro route. And what do you know? He has one of those Gamer x fanfics powers! The game mechanics! This is a particularly interesting subject for me as I've not seen many of these kinds of fanfics. I heard they are popular? I thought I'd make two of the Plot Guardians to have the same powers except for the MC of this fanfic. So yeah, an overpowered ability to both Plot Guardians. But what of Tadano? If they're overpowered, then what could Tadano be who was said to be the most powerful amongst the three Plot Guardian? That's the mystery boys! O-Or girls as well!

The comedy of this chapter isn't a lot and that's because we're building up to the first arc of this fanfic, not the original story. That'll be taking place in their second year. So yes, the serious plot will happen! As well as more incoming comedy elements, hehe boi! (Also, do you guys like the part where Tadano and Shin talked about Avengers: Endgame? I did, I have a fun writing it. I just love Marvel movies.)

Now, remember. I'm writing this for fun and because my WiFi's down, I can't really update that fast. While you can hope for me to update faster, don't simply demand it. I have my hands full with real life stuff, just like you guys and girls so don't expect too much. Ah, also not forget to mention, perhaps this chapter quality may be lacking and that's because I didn't bother to reread it. Sorry for that and you can point out some grammar errors and whatnot in the review section.

I've been reading you guys' reviews, some I've read are about the girls who should be in Tadano's harem. For now, the harem should be these gurls; Nishimya Shouko (!), Hyoudou Seika, Kobayashi Sagiri (?),Sona Sitri, Rosweisse, Tsubaki, Serafall Leviathan and Xenovia Quarta. Some voted for Yasaka and Kunou but I don't really know much about them since they just appeared in season 4. That said, you guys sure have weird tastes. One is a married woman (I-I think?) and the other is a...child? Loli? Well, not that I'm the one to judge but okay. I'll try to add them to Tadano's harem...

Guess I have to watch season 4 again to get a grip of their characters.

With that being said, thanks for reading! Did you enjoyed the chapter? If you do, please do leave a follow, favorite and review! I really appreciate it if you do! Positive, criticisms, flames, any reviews are allowed! I'm not one of those authors who deletes reviews that don't like. Personally, I like that there's a history in the reviews-both bad and good.

I have nothing to say so, ma-ta-na!
