EPISODE 13 - Eating Competition

*All 5 make grumbling noises*

Kibe: I'm not even that hungry.

Oh yeah, I forgot I lived in a manga/anime world which meant things usually are exaggerated...

Such as hunger.

1:00 PM

*Grumbling noises*

Kibe: Damn it... This is really annoying.

Ishimoto: Hung....ry...

Arata: Dammit...

Yoshida: Grrrrrr...

*Hara chuckles*

Hara: Fools. This is the TRUE test of courage.

*He grabs something yellow out of his bag*

*Kibe looks beside him*

A BANANA!

*Hara peels off his banana*

NO... DON'T YOU DARE.

*Hara notices and gives him a smug look*

YOU JERK! YOU'RE GONNA START AN EATING COMPETITION!

*Arata sees Hara*

Arata's thoughts: Oh no, you don't.

*He grabs a bag of potato chips and then proceeds to open it*

*He grabs one chip and makes a slight crunching sound*

*Kibe hears the crunching sound*

*Kibe looks behind and looks at Arata*

*Arata notices and proceeds to give him a smug face*

GRRRRRRRRR... YOU LITTLE...

*Kibe clenches his hand into a fist*

*Ishimoto immediately notices Arata eating potato chips*

Ishimoto: ...

*He grabs something from his bag*

*He has an apple*

*Ishimoto proceeds to chomp loudly on it*

*Kibe immediately looks at Ishimoto's seat*

ARE YOU AN IDIOT?! SHOULDN'T YOU HAVE CUT THE APPLE INTO MANY PARTS SO THAT IT'S EASIER TO EAT AND SO THAT IT DOESN'T MAKE LOUD NOISES?

*Ishimoto notices Kibe*

Ishimoto: Heh.

*Ishimoto proceeds to give Kibe a smug face*

Are you trying to mock me, punk?

*Kibe gets frustrated*

*He then proceeds to look at Yoshida*

Don't tell me you too?

*Yoshida grabs something from his bag and gets a pack of jawbreakers*

*He then proceeds to chew some of the jawbreakers

FOOLS EVERYWHERE!

*Kibe sighs*

He'll get caught without a doubt, he's dumb enough to grab something so loud and in front of the teacher to boot.

*Kibe laughs*

Kibe: You're as good as dead.

*The teacher who was writing on the board finally stops writing and then proceeds to look at the class and at the students*

Teacher: ...

*The teacher then proceeds to write on the board*

THE TEACHER IS BLIND AND DEAF AT THE SAME TIME!

*Yoshida notices and proceeds to look at Kibe*

No. NO, DON'T YOU DARE!

*Yoshida gives a smug look to Kibe*

...

Kibe: You think you simpletons are greater than me? FOOLS!

Now that I think about it, if I join in the competition, that'll mean I'd have been part of this comedic event. A PERFECT OPPORTUNITY.

*Kibe searches through his bag*

If I produce the greatest impression, that'll mean a greater boost for my progression to Main Character of Slice-of-Life.

Kibe: Wait.

I... don't have any food. I only have pocket money and some ice-cold water.

Kibe: What should I do?

*He thinks for about 5 seconds*

I got it!

*He brings out his water bottle*

*He then removes the cover and proceeds to get a big chunk of ice*

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE FOOD. AS LONG AS I MAKE THE LOUDEST SOUND!

*He then places the big chunk of ice in his mouth and then begins crunching it*

*Kibe chuckles*

I'm so much of a genius, sometimes I scare myself.

*Kibe looks around and notices that all four of the Slice-of-Life protagonists are staring at him*

*He chuckles and brings out a smug face*

Kibe: Are you astonished by my knowledge, low-lives?

*Arata points to him*

Kibe: What?

*There is a big shadowy figure behind him*

*All four of the protagonists look away*

Kibe: Huh?

*Gulps*

There's someone behind me.

Teacher: It seems you have something to say, Takayuki Kibe-san...

OH CR*P!

*He looks behind*

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

*He smiles*

*The teacher lets out a darker aura*

Kibe: EEEEEEK! Uh uh...

I FORGOT THAT THE LAST GUY ALWAYS GETS CAUGHT!

Teacher: It seems you wanted to disturb my class on purpose because you wouldn't have intentionally picked a very large ice cube and decide to chew it out loud without drinking any water, would you?

*Kibe smiles*

Hehe. I'm screwed...

*Kibe stands outside the hall with three buckets, two on each hand and one on top of his head*

I'm usually unnoticed by the teachers... but it seems I was acknowledged this time.

Kibe: I won, but at what cost...

Progress to Protagonist: 5%

In the end, I had to stand in the hallway for the whole day, so I didn't get to increase my progress further.

*At home*

*Kibe is in his room

I've been robbed of my time but it will not stop me.

Kibe: I overheard them talking earlier.

They were talking about going shopping or just going out to play.

Kibe: Isn't this the perfect opportunity to intervene?

AHHH! THE PROCESS OF BECOMING A PROTAGONIST GIVES ME CHILLS!

*Nakatani is peeking on the little opening on the door*

Nakatani's thoughts: Onii-chan's talking to his self today again. And I think his thoughts and what he's saying should be switched. Onii-chan must've been pretty lonely. I guess I'll have to do it.

Note: And so with the price of progress, he lost his time and respect from his little sister.
