"What are you doing, Kiyono!! Can't you even do that!!"
Shut up. I tried not to give up. But it still didn't work.
"As expected, Orimura-kun is amazing~~ Compared to that guy over there..."
"Oh, they'll hear you~"
Shut up. Don't compare me to someone who gets a custom unit through connections.
"Haa... why someone like you in this academy?"
How should I know? I wanted to live a normal life in a normal school too.
"What are you, seriously? Only Icchan has the special privilege of operating an IS."
Don't blame your mistakes on me, Rabbit. I didn't want to operate it either.
"Amazing, Ichika-kun!"
"As expected of Ichika!"
"Thanks to Ichika!"
"Orimura-kun is wonderful."
"He's so cool..."
Ichika Ichika Ichika Ichika Ichika... It's annoying... Are they brainwashed or something?
"Where there's smoke, there's fire. Why don't you just admit your guilt? There are many witnesses."
I told you I didn't do it... They all framed me...
"It's okay, Masaru. I'll be your friend."
Shut up. Looking down on me... If you're my friend, do something about those women glaring at me behind you, you hypocrite.
...Ah.
Enough...
I'm tired...
And so, I jumped off the academy roof and died...
...Or so I thought.
—---------------------------
"......Huh?"
When I came to, I was standing in front of the IS Academy's main gate.
(Huh!? Eh!? What's going on!?)
I was sure I had jumped off the roof. Yet, my body had not a single scratch.
As I flustered around, not understanding what was happening, I felt gazes from my surroundings.
Female students were looking at me from a distance.
(Ah~... I guess I'm going to be made fun of again as a 'stepping stone'...)
I figured Orimura Ichika would rush in to defend me after I was ridiculed. The girls would praise him, saying, "Even for a guy like him, Orimura-kun is wonderful for defending him!" That's probably how it would go. After all, every girl in this academy was on his side.
However, the female students' reaction was far beyond what I expected.
"Huh...? Could that person be the rumored male operator?"
"Eh!? That person!?"
...Hm?
(Something's wrong... My face should have been known within a week of enrollment...)
When I calmed down a bit, I saw cherry blossoms around the academy.
(This is strange...!? It should have been autumn...!?)
I took out my phone, which was in my pocket (it should have been in my room before I jumped, but it was in my pocket), and checked the date. The date displayed on the screen was April 7th. The day of the entrance ceremony.
(Could it be... time has rewound!?)
I didn't know the reason, but if this wasn't a dream, then it had to be. Otherwise, cherry blossoms wouldn't be blooming, and someone who committed suicide by jumping wouldn't be unharmed.
As soon as I understood, my heart was covered in despair.
(Do I have to redo those hellish days again...!)
God had even taken away my right to die.
(What did I do!? Forced into an academy I didn't want to be in! Forced to watch a handsome guy's harem I didn't want to see! Treated like a supporting character by everyone around me! The girl I liked taken by that guy! Framed for bullying! And just when I thought I finally escaped by dying, this!?)
I had felt unreasonable things many times since entering this academy.
But, an unreasonableness that twisted the laws of the world, like rewinding time, was certainly not among them.
(Damn it!! I wish this academy would just disappear!!)
As I cursed in my heart, it happened.
DOOOOMM!!
A tremendous explosion echoed, and a fierce storm raged.
When I shifted my gaze, the academy had exploded and blown away.
".............Huh?"
"Ki-Kyaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!"
My mind went blank from the second unexpected event of the day.
I snapped out of it at the female students' screams, but I was still confused.
(Eh? Eh? Did it happen because I wished for it!?)
With a series of unexpected events, I thought of something absurd.
(I see! This is a dream! If it's a dream, I can do anything!)
(For now, I'll rewind again and put the academy back to normal!)
As I wished for something foolish with my confused mind, my vision darkened, and truly, the academy returned to its original state.
—---------------
With the academy restored and my mind clear, I first pinched my cheek.
(...It hurts... It's not a dream?)
If it wasn't a dream, then the academy exploding and time rewinding must have happened because I wished for them. To confirm, I made another wish.
(May that girl's skirt blow up in the wind...)
As I wished that, a strong wind blew, and I saw the cute white panties of a long-haired female student who was looking at the academy.
"Kyaa!?"
She hastily pulled it down, but I had a clear memory of it. The female student looked at me as if to say, "Did you see!?", but I feigned ignorance to cover it up.
(No doubt about it! I can grant any wish now!)
It's a bit strange to understand this through such a thing, but...
As I understood, the hellish academy before me suddenly looked like heaven!
The devilish women who tormented me looked like angels!
I loved God, whom I had hated so much just moments ago!
My previous academy life was a hell covered in unreasonableness. But with this power, I can take revenge on those bastards, and this academy...!
No, not just the academy, I can make this whole world mine!
Imagining an academy life using this ultimate power, I headed for the entrance ceremony in a completely opposite mood from before.
