Prologue: The Loner that went to hell.
'Will you go out with me? '
' I'm sorry Hikigaya-kun, but I only see you as a friend. '
You know, sometimes I wonder why humans are such emotional creatures. I mean, evolution blessed us with the best brain in the animal kingdom yet half of the time, we are too narcissistic to make proper use of it.
In case you are wondering, yes, I am I deed making fun of how stupid human beings can be. Somehow, all of manage to make everything that happens in our life about ourselves. This problem is particularly potent during adolescence where rampaging hormones turn even the most withdrawn men into slaves of their imagination.
'Ne, did you hear? Hikkifrogi-kun actually confessed to Kaori-chan. Can you imagine how disgusted she must have felt? '
Where was I? Ah yes, the problems of adolescence. By the way, you should probably know who I am by now but in case you don't, my name is Hikigaya Hachiman and I'm this story's (un)lucky protagonist.
I was born with beautiful eyes that closely resembled that of a dead fish's which was more than enough reason for me to be bullied in Elementary school. When I entered Junior high, everything quieted down. The Junior high students were too classy to bully someone based on their looks. That didn't mean I was suddenly loved or anything. Honestly, they left me alone and I left them alone in return. It was a good system where everyone benefited until one day, on a beautiful evening , I fucked everything up.
You know, in hindsight I should have seen through Orimoto Kaori's niceness as just that but I didn't. There was no way a girl that popular would ever fall for me and I knew that in my heart. But my teenage mind betrayed me by giving me hope that there was a chance. Hell, I even grew some balls and confessed directly.
However, the rejection was quicker than the confession and I was even impressed by how quickly I was shot down. But what was even more impressive was how quickly the school rumour mill had gotten hold of the news. Let's just say that the end result was not pretty and at one point even caused me physical harm.
Now you guys might be wondering why I am speaking in the past tense and the answer for that is the fact that this was the happenings of the past. A year and a half had passed since my confession and it was was almost time to enter highschool.
In my desperate attempt to get away from all my peers in junior high, I even ended up getting admitted into Soubu high, a prestigious private school that requires high levels of effort and intelligence to enter, something most of my peers here lacked.
I was looking forward to getting away from them and this time I was going to make sure that I'll never fall into someone's trap. Well that was the plan until truck-kun decided that the world had enough of my shit and isekai'd me to hell, figuratively and literally.
Quick note: This is basically a test run for a fic idea that I had. Basically, Hachiman gets transported to the Murim world of Chinese novels and then comes back for highschool.
If you think that the concept is interesting, drop a review or something and I'll continue.
