Reincarnated Into a Shounen Anime-Chapter 37: Recalling Anime Name
~Cafeteria, After Class~
Alex and the girls, along with others from Class-A made their way to the Cafeteria. The classes for the day were over. Classes in the International Hero Academy are very lax. Today, the academy curriculum ended with just two classes. The subject of Teacher Rayna and History class.
Alex knew that this was one of the rare days where there was more than one class. The Academy leaned more towards practical activities than curricular activities.
There is everything you need to get better but you need to find it. The Academy course is where the main learning happens. Students join a course, pay credits to attend and learn from teachers they want.
Outside money doesn’t work here. You need to earn credits to learn from teachers, and teachers need to teach students to get paid from them.
There is no salary system. Teachers can only earn through teaching. So there is no chance of slacking. Because if a teacher wants to live better, they need to teach better.
You reap what you sow basically.
Alex liked this system very much.
[Personal Credits: 713,745,839]
Seeing his Credits Amount, Alex couldn’t help but grin like a loon. He couldn’t help but feel like Elon Musk.
"Alex~ Darling ~ can you please spare this pitiful girl some Credits~?"
Alex suddenly felt his left hand getting wrapped around by softness. He looked down and saw Nakashima looking at him with a coy smile.
Alex frowned.
"I don’t believe you. Show me your Credits."
[Personal Credits: 1,009,488]
’...’
"Tha... That’s a lot..."
Alex said with a baffled expression. Nakashima doubled down and hugged his arm even tighter. Dangling it aggressively.
"Noo~~. Its not! Do you know how expensive things are!? Come ooon Honey~~ Can you give me some~?"
She looked at him with a shy expression, averting her eyes as if she wants to say something intimate.
"Maybe... maybe I can be your girlfriend!! AaaaAaA so embarrassing!!"
Nakashima cupped her cheeks with her hands, her cheeks reddening with shyness.
"Shima-Chan!!! What are you doing!!"
Saika from the side exclaimed with her hands clenched at her side, eyes wide with clear bewilderment. Aika didn’t have much change in expression. Salonika fidgeted with her fingers, unsure what to do.
Alex looked at Nakashima with narrowed eyes.
"... You’re not interesting enough to arouse me."
He said without any change in expression. Nakashima looked at his face, her earlier shyness gone. Her expression unreadable.
Nakashima kicked Alex in the leg.
"Bastard."
She spat before turning on her heels and walking into the Cafeteria. The others looked uncomfortable. Looked between him and Nakashima before they chased after her. Alex looked at their back, then shrugged.
What he said was true. If she couldn’t take it, that’s on her. Alex walked into the four-storey building. Each floor designed for each year. First floor being for the first years.
The moment Alex entered, murmurings of thousands entered his ears. Despite the peculiar atmosphere between him and his group, the café was extremely lively with the smell of delicious food in the air.
Alex wafted the smell and immediately forgot about Nakashima and the others. He remembered the main reason he came to the Cafeteria in the first place.
’It’s food testing time babyyy!!!’
Alexander made his way to the VIP section of first floor with an eager expression. Unlike other students, students of Class-A have a VIP section where only they are allowed to enter.
The difference between the treatment was like heaven and earth. Students in the normal section need to collect their meal from a limited number of menus.
While the VIP section has no such thing. Students can order anything as long as they have the Credits for it.
Alex hurriedly made his way to the opposite side of the cafe, ignoring the students’ frightened and cautious gaze.
Alex suddenly noticed someone that looked familiar from the corner of his eyes. He was chatting with three nerd looking friends while eating.
"Who’s that?"
He murmured without stopping his pace.
[Student Identification]
[Name: Tsukasa Carico]
[Year of Study: First Year]
[Rank: 1001]
[Class: 8-E]
[Status: Special Admission Student ]
[Personal Credits: 90,839]
’!!!’
As if a knot of heavy chains has been undone inside Alex’s mind, an influx of forgotten knowledge assaulted his brain like a tidal wave.
’Carico Sekai!!!’
Alex finally remembered the anime name!! He suddenly felt so much relief that he involuntarily stopped, making others look at him weirdly.
Alex quickly recovered. And started walking again. It was not yet the time to meet the protagonist. He still got to know the location of the protagonist.
Or, he could just abuse his status as the Head of The First Year and get where the protagonist lives.
’Whatever. Eating comes first. I will think about the protagonist later. ’
Alex shrugged it off.
’But really now, the initial name that came to mind wasn’t bad as well. Cuck Fucker. Quite close to Carico Sekai actually. No wonder I missed it.’
He silently reaffirmed himself that him messing up the anime name wasn’t his fault. Who told them to name their anime like that?
’But imagine the content the Cuck Fucker would have generated. Fucker of pitiful cucks instead of their beautiful wives. Ah~~ just imagine... what a wasted potential. Tsk. Tsk.’
Alex quickly entered the VIP section while lamenting the absolute loss of sure genre defining material that will never see the light of day... or will it?
The room in front of Alex was more luxurious than most 5-Star restaurants back on Earth. The whole cafe was decorated with flowers and exquisite lamps, antiques and designs in the walls. Red carpet covering the ground.
Walking on it felt like walking on clouds. Waiters serving food while students happily chatted. Exquisite music playing in the background.
Alex found the girls in a table. Saika was consoling Nakashima who was sulking. She shot a venomous look at him. Aika just sat there, while Salonika looked uncomfortable.
Alex stared at their direction for a few moments before finding some other empty place. He sat in the chair. The round table had a flower vase on it that seemed to be glowing in myriad colours under the light of the noon.
Alex was looking for the the menu when a blue line appeared on the red table cloth, it extended and turned into a list.

’She wasn’t lying...’
Seeing the list, Alex couldn’t help but feel bad. Thinking he should have just given her some.
’I will make up for it later. Its meal time!’
But for now, Alex ordered things he found interesting, then Clicked the [Place Order] option. The Credits were deducted directly Via his ID. Never requiring Alex to do anything. He felt intrigued. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Alex continued to scroll through the list, he was sure that it will take quite a while to appear but defying all expectations, the orders came within five minutes. They were served by kitchen staff with a stiff smile.
’...’
’If an auditorium that can hold 4,000 people easily be put under time dilation, why can’t a small kitchen be? What’s stopping it?’
"Sigh~ There are many new things to learn..."
Alex murmured as he ate his lunch silently, while ignoring everyone’s shocked gaze on how much food he had on his table...
