Chapter 3
Tendo Keigen clicked on the skill description.
There was no description, only the word "Dismantle."
However, he knew that in a world like this, true cursed techniques couldn't exist; this "Dismantle" couldn't be used to hack people everywhere, nor could it kill anyone.
After all, this is a basketball anime!
He was here to play ball, not to be a midnight butcher!
"Then let's set off, Teiko!"
Tendo Keigen twisted his neck and walked toward Teiko, amidst the covetous gazes of a crowd of women.
It's called a popularity system, but the protagonist of this show isn't him; it's Kuroko, it's the Generation of Miracles.
The camera focuses on those lunatics over ninety percent of the time; if he wants exposure, he has to mooch off them.
"First, set a small goal: become the most popular one among the Generation of Miracles."
Tendo Keigen soon left Teiko.
School hadn't started at Teiko yet; the new semester was a week away.
Having solved the school problem, Tendo Keigen now faced another issue.
"Where should I go to get money?"
"Looks like I have to get a part-time job."
The part-time job culture in Japan is quite popular.
Many kids start working part-time from junior high; young servers are everywhere you look.
Just as he was thinking about it, Tendo Keigen saw a coffee shop with a recruitment sign posted.
He walked straight in.
"Welcome, do you have a reservation, guest?"
As soon as he entered the door, a girl of about 18 greeted him very politely.
Tendo Keigen had his hands in his pockets, scanned the surroundings, and nodded with satisfaction, seeing that the environment was quite good.
"I saw the recruitment sign at your door; I'm here for an interview."
Interview?
The server looked at him with a strange expression.
With Tendo Keigen's arrogant appearance, he looked more like an overbearing second-generation rich kid than a part-timer.
After all, who wears such cool sunglasses to a coffee shop interview?
However, she still politely led Tendo Keigen inside.
"For an interview, you need the boss lady's approval."
"Please follow me."
"Okay, thank you."
Tendo Keigen followed the server and soon arrived at the back kitchen of the coffee shop.
Even though it's a coffee shop, they can't just sell coffee and nothing else, right?
"Boss lady, someone is here for an interview!"
The boss lady turned her head upon hearing this and saw a handsome shell!
Even with sunglasses on, her years of experience allowed her to see at a glance that this was a boy who was handsome to the point of falling apart.
"I'm here..."
"Take off your sunglasses and let me see."
"Ah, oh?"
Tendo Keigen did as told, taking off his sunglasses with great flair, revealing a pair of pale blue eyes.
Originally looking like a cynical rich kid, he instantly transformed into an elegant noble young master.
"Hello, I'm here to..."
"You're hired!"
The boss lady pushed the server aside and walked straight over, staring intently at Tendo Keigen's face.
"Just... hired?"
"Yes, you're hired, start working tomorrow!"
Is it this much of a joke?
Tendo Keigen complained internally, but said, "Don't you need to test my professional skills?"
"Then, can you make coffee?"
"No!"
"It doesn't matter, if you can't, you can learn slowly. By the way, what's your name?"
"Zhou... Tendo Keigen!"
"Tendo Keigen, good name, leaking dominance!"
Tendo Keigen, "..."
There were even more things he wanted to complain about.
Is this shop really hiring a clerk and not a host?
What's the meaning of you staring at my face since just now?
"Where is little Tendo from?"
I'm not little, I'm above standard size!
"Where am I from... probably not a local."
"And your parents?"
"Not here."
That's not wrong; they're in another world.
"So you're on your own?"
"For now, yes."
"Do you have a place to stay?"
"No, I was planning to go look for one later."
His so-called "looking" meant robbing the rich to help the poor, mugging a few fated people, and borrowing some money to stay the night.
That's how he got through the first day; who told the System not to cover food and lodging?
Could only borrow from some small-time thugs.
"I see. There's an apartment behind the shop where I used to live when I worked. Now that my child is born and needs my care, it's been sitting empty. I can rent it to you first."
Does your shop have such good benefits?
Tendo Keigen looked at the server in surprise, only to see her expression looking so aggrieved she wanted to cry.
This made Tendo Keigen unable to stop himself from thinking in other directions.
"I'm sorry, boss lady, I will not sell my chastity!"
"What chastity? I don't want your chastity, I want your youth!"
"I'm sorry, boss lady, my youth is as important to me as my chastity!"
Tendo Keigen wanted to leave right now, immediately.
Laozi just wants a part-time job; why do you want to keep me as a kept man?
"Nonsense, what are you thinking about in your head?" The boss lady rolled her eyes at him and said, "Although my shop is a coffee shop, because it's near the school, the customers are mostly students. Do you understand now?"
"Don't understand."
"Stupid, I want this face of yours, get it?"
The boss lady couldn't help but reach out and pinch Tendo Keigen's handsome face, clicking her tongue, "If I were twenty years younger, I guarantee I'd chase you until you agreed to be my boyfriend!"
"Then that's no problem; I'm qualified to be a vase."
"Then it's settled. By the way, where do you go to school?"
"Teiko!"
"That's quite close. That's it then; working hours are from when you get out of school until 10 PM, only one day off on weekends, four days off a month. Any problems?"
"Got it!"
Just like that, Tendo Keigen even solved his accommodation problem.
Nighttime.
Having received an advance on his salary from the boss lady and finished buying daily necessities, Tendo Keigen lay directly on the unfamiliar bed.
He looked at the ceiling, his arm resting on his forehead.
"My luck seems pretty good; I met a kind person as soon as I arrived. This kind of start isn't bad."
Tendo Keigen accepted that he had come to another world and would soon appear in front of the camera, living a life like Truman's.
Fortunately, he wasn't Truman after all; the camera would only focus on that guy Kuroko.
"That's not right either. If I want to be the popularity king, how can I do it without the determination to change Kuroko's Basketball into Tendo's Basketball?"
Thinking of this, he rolled over to the desk and began to record Gojo Satoru's character settings.
Looking at so many anime works, popular characters are as numerous as the stars.
Especially in sports types, they are the easiest to ignite the audience's blood.
Like Mitsui Hisashi, a prodigal son who turned back, a passionate man who doesn't know how many people he has fascinated.
The world of Kuroko's Basketball is different; although there are passionate bridges, the main thing is the shock aspect.
When Aomine entered the Zone for the first time, I don't know how many people were shocked; it was filled with the beauty of numbers.
Mixing in the world of Kuroko's Basketball, talking about hard work is useless; everyone is competing on talent.
The protagonist's team works hard enough, but facing the Generation of Miracles, except for the two who also opened cheats, the others only have the fate of being killed in seconds.
Highlighting one's own personality and strength is the key to attracting popularity.
