While in the taxi, the silence between them started to grow. He was sighing internally from this view. Kei knew that in these times, a man need to start the conversation.
"Are you also in high school?"
"Yes, I'm a 2nd year at Ichinose Academy."
Hearing this, he nodded in response.
'Huh!— Wait! I thought her school is Toyogasaki High... What happened in this world? But remembering the people that I got to know in the past days, It seems that the setting of all the existing anime in this world got rumbled. Well, Megumi and Nanami working in Ogata Udon Shop is an obvious change.'
After thinking about this, he received data in his brain from his conversation 101 folder.
"You know... I think it's late but, Can I know your name?"
He knew her name because of his past life but it would be weird if he know her name since they just met recently.
"Oh! I haven't told you didn't I?
He nodded in response while waiting to introduce herself.
"By the way, is that the way you say every time you asked the name of every woman you met?"
"Yes."
He instantly answered.
"...You know... being honest is not always the right choice."
"Why? If I can get your sympathy then you can know me better."
"So you're trying to make me your woman?"
'Is it obvious? Frick! My inner intention is leaking but... haaa* I need to be true to myself.'
"You can say that."
Hearing his words, she smug.
"Being able to hold a conversation with a beautiful woman like me is very lucky and now you're being greedy to make me you woman?"
"Don't worry I will make you fall for me that you can never live without me."
"In your dreams."
Looking away from him, she smirks while looking out the window.
'This man… Interesting.'
"By the way, can I now know your name?"
Now that she thinks about it she Immediately looks at him again.
"Well, be glad that you know the name of this beautiful woman."
'It's true that she is beautiful but It annoys me that she keeps saying it every time.'
Using his poker face he didn't let him show his annoyance to his face.
"My name is Kasumigaoka Utaha, you can call me Utaha so be grateful."
(٥↼_↼)
…
...…
...…
"So we're here."
"Yeah, this place."
As of now, Kei and Utaha are in front of a building. This building belonged to the company named Fujikawa Shoten.
Fujikawa Shoten is a publishing company, which has its own light novel publishing imprint Fujikawa Fantastic Bunko and it's the same company that sponsored the writing contest that he joined.
Earlier, while he is surfing the internet, he received an email that he is the one who won the event and he needs to attend the event to get his prize. The event will be a casual one and don't need to wear formal clothes since this will be a short event that will be broadcast live to announce the top 3 story authors that won.
…
Going into the building, They can see the workers of the company going from the elevator. He look at the clock and saw the time.
'It seems that they would take a lunch.'
They sit in the waiting area as Kei takes out his phone from his pouch to email someone.
Putting in his phone, Utaha suddenly talks.
"So you're also one of the participants? Your look is telling the other story."
"Well, same to you. You look like not a person who would write a novel."
"In the end, we're here for the prize."
"Well, I can't refuse that."
"..."
"Say… what's the title of the book you submitted?"
"..."
"Hunter×Hunter"
"Oh...congrats."
He can't look at her since this is very awkward for him. The story that he submitted is not created by him and is only something that exists in his past life. Another reason why he felt awkward is this is the one who comes in first place in this contest.
Utaha's story titled Metronome in Love is the story that comes second place. An original that she worked hard to write that's why even though he has a thick face, he is kinda guilty for Utaha. Well, he wouldn't feel guilty if it is a guy.
Shooking his head, someone approached them as they were near the waiting area.
"Are you… Kusanagi-san and Kasumigaoka-san?"
She is a fair-skinned young woman with chin-length dark blue hair and light blue eyes. She is wearing a blackwork blazer, a white button-up shirt, and a black knee-length pencil skirt.
They nodded in response.
"I'm Sonoko Machida. I'm one of the editors of the Fujikawa Shoten Company."

She bowed her head and they do the same. Looking up at Kei she was suddenly mesmerized.
'This boy… is he really 16 years old? Haaa* if his age didn't truly that then I can make him my boy— wait! stop! What are you thinking?'
'P-p-please follow me." Wearing a blushingly face, she stutters as Utaha glance at him.
'This guy…'
He felt her eyes but didn't bother it.
They follow her to go up to the 3rd floor and go into a room with a small stage. Looking around, he can see some people putting some decorations in the room and adjusting the cameras.
As Machida took them to their seat, he saw a boy with purple eyes and green hair. He is wearing his school uniform consisting of a white undershirt, a tie, a tan top, maroon pants, and brown shoes.
'Uhmm... Is this okay? I hope the author wouldn't make excuses like he/she stuck to write a chapter because of the character overflow.'
Suddenly, Machida introduces him to them.
"This is Kusanagi Kei. His pen name is Katsuragi Keima-sensei and this is Kasumigaoka Utaha. Her pen name is Utako Kasumi-sensei"
"Nice to meet you."
Kei greeted him while Utaha bowed as her way of greeting and Machida introduce him.
"This is Masamune Izumi. His pen name is Izumi Masamune-sensei "
'I know that school uniform is standard clothes but this guy.... Haaa*' Seeing his outfit, this is what Kei thought.
'Another thing, Why the heck your pen name is just the reverse of your real name but with a use of different kanji characters?'
Since all he thinks are now nonsense things, he empties his mind and makes a smile on his face as Machida continues to talk.
"All of you will wait here a bit until we call your name on stage."
They nodded as she walks away and both of them sit on the chairs.
…
...…
...
Nothing big happened after that. They are introduced, give a small speech, and take their reward. Finishing the stage, they also include in the live broadcast of them signing the contract.
He read the contract. The content is favorable to them so he didn't make any changes as the event ended with a picture of them holding their certificate and contract.
After the event, they immediately go out of the building and call a taxi.
"So what will you do later?" Kei starts the conversation while the taxi is moving.
"Nothing." Realizing something, Utaha spoke again. "Do want to take me out somewhere?"
"Well, yeah. If you want we can have a dinner date later."
"Dinner date? You're not even making excuses like we're celebrating or something like that?"
"Well, that's one of the reasons but I want you."
'Wait! How did I say these words like I'm naturally playboy? Is being a transmigrated person can change you or... this is something I didn't know to myself?' Thinking this, Utaha interrupts it.
"You're really shameless are you?"
"Really?"
'But It's weird that I didn't feel any disgust over him rather... it's pleasant.'
"Well, don't even think that you can conquer me with just that but I will agree since it's your treat."
"Then where do you want to eat?"
"It's your decision. You're a man so surprise me."
"Then how about my apartment later? I'm quite good at cooking."
"Seriously?! What a letdown. I thought you would take me somewhere fancy like a 5-star restaurant or something."
"Then it means your rejecting my offer?"
"I... didn't say that."
And he let out a smug on his face.
'This man...'
She thinks as she looks away.
…
The taxi suddenly stops and they go out after they paid.
Walking in the apartment building, Kei thought of something.
'It's still 2 p.m. so I think I can go to work after I take a bath.'
Arriving at their units, they say their goodbyes.
"I still need to go to my work so I will call you later at 7 if you're okay with that?"
"Then 7."
"Okay, see you later."
Utaha didn't reply and immediately go in into her unit with a smile on her face.
Seeing her smile, he thought that she is really a charming person but didn't think that long since he needed to go out again.
Going into his unit, he immediately takes a bath and goes to his room to get dressed.
Looking at his basket, he thought to take it tomorrow to the laundry shop.
He still didn't take lunch but his refresh skill activates earlier so he didn't feel hungry.
Going out of his unit, he immediately walks to the Udon shop.
"Welcome!"
