=========================================
When Badr came to his senses, he was already standing at the podium.
"This is the new transfer student joining our class today. Please introduce yourself to your classmates."
A burly, balding teacher stood beside him, and the students sat at their desks below him. At the podium, Badr felt a bit dizzy.
Moments before, he had been out on the street saving a little girl who was crossing the street recklessly. He vaguely heard the brakes squeal and then was enveloped in a warm light.
And then he found himself here.
Looking at the curious looks of the students below, Badr couldn't help but speculate.
Was this heaven?
Should he have ascended to heaven after saving the little girl?
"I thought I was seeing angels." After scanning the room, Badr couldn't help but express his thoughts.
He was struggling with the shock of discovering his death, his emotions particularly complex.
The teacher and students were momentarily stunned. Someone couldn't help but laugh: "What's the matter with you, buddy? Are you still sleeping and dreaming?"
Hearing the laughter, Badr regained some composure and began to reflect on his current situation.
It was true that his consciousness still existed, but he was unsure if this was reincarnation or ascension. After all, this was his first experience with death, and he had no previous experience...
But he might as well get used to it since he was here.
Badr lifted his head and instinctively displayed a standardized smile that he had practised countless times:
"My name is Badr. I'm pleased to meet you all."
The introduction was... quite ordinary.
The students immediately frowned.
He seemed to be another boring person.
Except for a few girls who admired Badr's looks, everyone quickly lost interest in the new transfer student.
"All right, Badr, you can sit in the empty seat in the back row by the window."
The teacher casually assigned Badr a seat, adjusted his glasses, and picked up a chalk: "Next, everyone, take out your textbooks and turn to page fifty-two..."
Badr maintained his smile and walked to his assigned seat. After sitting down, he noticed that no one was paying attention to him. His smile quickly faded, and he became reserved and silent.
Putting his bag in the drawer, Badr checked his pockets and took stock of his belongings.
These included his cell phone, student ID, two keys, and banknotes.
His eyes fell first on the bills in an unfamiliar denomination of thirteen hundred and fifty. The coins were all fifties, suggesting that the thousand-plus yuan didn't seem very valuable, more like the yen.
Turning the phone to face himself, Badr saw his familiar face reflected on the screen. He nodded in satisfaction.
"Good, still my face, still good looking."
After unlocking the phone with his fingerprint, a photo of himself riding a bicycle appeared on the screen. In the picture, Badr was smiling brightly.
Badr stared at the photo briefly, feeling that the smile didn't suit him.
... How could he smile like that?
He shook his head and changed the wallpaper with a few taps.
The student ID read "Kuoh Academy, 2nd Year, Class 1," and the home address was attached, clarifying the origin of the two keys.
Badr thought for a moment. Based on the situation, it seemed that his soul had been transferred to the body of someone in another dimension.
Thus, after death, life would be reincarnated.
Badr's gaze became unfocused momentarily before he sighed and put aside his complicated feelings.
The current result was quite good; at least, it was a new beginning.
At that moment, Badr's peripheral vision caught sight of two people who seemed to be staring at him. He casually turned his head and saw that two gorgeous girls were indeed focused on him.
The girl on the left had long, fiery red hair and clear eyes that radiated a cold and mature aura, almost an enchanting quality that made it hard to look away.
The girl beside her had her black hair tied up in a high ponytail and a gentle smile on her beautiful face, giving off a warm impression.
Although the red-haired girl slightly overshadowed her beauty, she was also stunning.
Moreover, her figure was even more striking than the red-haired girl's. The two girls had their unique charms.
Badr's eyes met theirs for two seconds before he quickly looked away.
These two girls were beautiful.
He thought, assuming they were just curious about him as a new transfer student.
Unbeknownst to him, Rias and Akeno had already been watching his behaviour closely.
Both of them had noticed that Badr possessed a tremendous power that even these Devils were astonished by.
"Gear... it must be the power of a Sacred Gear, no doubt."
Rias and Akeno exchanged glances and, with tacit understanding, averted their eyes as if nothing had happened.
The mundane school day he was passed quickly. Badr visited the school's surveillance room, made up a story about losing his bicycle, and eventually retrieved it through the surveillance footage. He then returned to his own home in this world.
Unlocking the door with the key, he was greeted by a slightly cluttered room.
Pursing his lips, Badr glanced at the shrine on the wall, which contained portraits of a middle-aged couple.
From the previous conversation with the teacher at school, he had learned that his parents had been killed by a truck in this world.
"Damn truck that killed my parents. I'll remember that grudge."
Badr returned expressionless to the decorated bedroom, which contained a computer. Noticing the trash can full of tissues, he raised an eyebrow.
When he turned on the computer, he found over a hundred study materials in a hidden folder, which amused him.
Opening a few randomly, he saw subjects like Academy Silence, widows, grocery store owners, and guards...
He grinned.
"Looks like the previous owner was into otaku stuff..."
After closing the computer and tidying up a bit, Badr started his workout. After sweating it out and showering, he lay on his bed, arms behind his head, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
The school had been quiet today.
A few boys had come up to chat, and a few girls had tried to flirt, but Badr handled them with a decent smile.
It was all the same at school or in society - what people called "atmosphere". Badr had a disdainful attitude towards these social interactions.
But one shouldn't be too out of place.
Being too different could lead to exclusion, which would be particularly troublesome.
So he had developed a skill for polite pretence.
As long as he maintained a balance of being neither too close nor too distant, he could stay in his normal state without getting involved.
Maintaining this status quo seemed to be quite satisfying.
That's what Badr thought.
Two days later... when he suddenly got a girlfriend!
To be precise, a girl he didn't know suddenly confessed to him!
From the girl's fragmented words, Badr could confirm that even the previous owner did not know her.
Her name was Amano Yuma. She was a sweet and cute JK (High School Girl) who looked pure and adorable.
Standing on a bridge bathed in the setting sun, the girl looked at Badr as if gathering immense courage and said shyly:
"W-well... My name is Amano Yuma. I saw you at the school gate yesterday, and since then... would you... consider going out with me?"
She spoke hesitantly, her shyness obvious because she couldn't look him in the eye.
Badr was stunned. He never expected a girl to confess to him despite his current situation.
He thought to himself, what is going on here?
Could he have moved the heavens and touched the Sacred so that a heavenly being was sent down to be his girlfriend?
He smiled inwardly, although he wasn't impressed.
According to Amano Yuma, she had fallen in love with him at first sight and had come to ask for a relationship.
... "Love at first sight? Asking for a relationship? More like asking for mating; at least that would be more believable..."
Does pure love still exist in this world? He didn't believe it.
Maintaining his usual smile, Badr remained clear-headed and even a little indifferent.
To be confessed by a beautiful Girl... Impossible!
He suspected that this girl must have some reason for approaching him. He wanted to find out why she was interested in him.
After all, he was alone now, with nothing left but the 280 square meter house and the 40 million compensation from his parents' death.
Could it be that she was physically attracted to him?
If so, she shouldn't be so cautious - he could lie down!
To explore, Badr seemed pleasantly surprised and agreed to Amano Yuma's request.
So they became a couple.
"So, tomorrow is a day off. Badr, shall we go shopping together?"
Amano Yuma looked especially happy. Her big, sparkling eyes were filled with anticipation and a hint of a pout as she looked at Badr.
Badr smiled gently and replied warmly, "Sure, let's meet tomorrow. I won't be absent."
"Hmm!!"
Amano Yuma's expression immediately brightened.
"Be careful on the way."
Badr smiled and reached out to smooth her hair. His gentle smile was particularly captivating.
Seeing his smile, Amano Yuma's face also showed a mixture of shyness and joy. As she walked away, she turned back every few steps, clearly immersed in the romance, and walked away reluctantly.
Badr maintained his warm smile and watched Amano Yuma's figure gradually fade. His gentle smile quickly faded when she was entirely out of sight, leaving his face expressionless.
He stood silently for a few seconds, remembering Amano Yuma's behaviour but finding no clues.
Finally, he glanced meaningfully in the direction she had gone and turned away.
... He wanted to see what kind of trouble this woman was up to.
