Chapter 26: 4th Wall Break
Finally a rest day for me. I won't go out no matter what. I will finish this sweet all by myself.
(Nendou puts his head against the glass door.)
Saiki: It's a goddamn rest day. Why is he at my house?
Nendou: Yo, Saiki!
Saiki: Oh great, it's also Kaidou with him. Couldn't you leave me alone? Yare yare.
(Saiki opens the door.)
Nendou: Yo pal, wanna go eat some ramen?
Saiki: Really? You couldn't find anything else to say? Oh wait, let me guess. 1, 2, 3... The Dark Reunion.
Kaidou: Saiki! The Dark Reunion will hunt us, so we must prepare!
Saiki (thinking): I knew it. What's with these people? So predictable. Fine, let's go.
(While walking to the ramen shop, they run into Aren.)
Aren: Hey guys! What are you doing?
Kaidou (excited): Hey Aren, come with us! We're gonna eat some ramen!
Aren: Ramen... let me guess, it was Nendou's idea.
Saiki (thinking): Finally, someone understands me.
Nendou: Hoho, you must be a psychic, Aren! (He slaps Aren's back.)
(Aren takes it as a fight gesture.)
Aren (thinking): Oi, oi, oi. Is this guy really trying to fight me? What does this monkey want?
(Aren prepares to fight but calms himself down.)
Aren (thinking): Wait, he's my friend. He must've done that without meaning harm. I must calm down. Breathe, release. Breathe, release.
(Then, a random stranger slaps Aren's back, mistaking him for a women.)
Stranger: Excuse me,miss.Oh!
Aren (snapping): YOU LITTLE SH--!
(Aren kicks the stranger in the abdomen, sending him to the ground.)
Saiki (thinking): This is why I'm here,to deal with old weird perverts.
(Using his powers, Saiki heals the stranger, but he accidentally makes him too attractive. Nearby girls start fainting at the sight of him.)
Saiki (thinking): Okay, maybe too much.
(Saiki resets the man to his original state. The girls immediately lose interest.)
Nendou: So, guys, let's go eat ramen!
Saiki (thinking): Yeah, well, the old dude deserved it.
Saiki (breaking the fourth wall): By the way, if anyone touches you or throws a punch, don't just stand there. Protect yourself. One small punch might not hurt, but a hundred will. Defend yourself,it's your body, after all.
Saiki:That wasn't like me at all. Author, if you're gonna write, don't use me as your tool.
Kaidou, Aren, and Nendou (calling): Saiki, come on! You'll get lost in the crowd!
