I Didn't Choose the Gangsta System, the Gangsta System Chose Me

"Just sit there and greet Joren when he enters, okay?"

Ness said, trying to restrain her laughter.

"You're the principal..."

Jack just gave up with disinterest.

At the next moment, Joren kicked down the door.

"Hello, Joren."

"Huh!?"

"Bwahahaha!"

Ness dropped onto the ground and laughed.

"Is it not annoying, Mister Jack?"

Joren asked to which Jack responded.

"Not really. I don't know what you're up to but you can continue."

"What?"

Hearing this, Ness stopped laughing and sat up with a face of disbelief.

Afterwhich, Joren kept repeating it while Jack stayed cool. Ness stared at this with her index finger on her lips.

"What's the problem, Principal?"

Jack asked with a smile on his face popped a nerve out of Ness' forehead.

"Joren, I think you're going to have a long training."

Ness said suddenly said to which Joren responded.

"As long as Mister Jack can!"

"I sure can."

Jack just chuckled. When Ness and Virena went back to their office, the former asked the latter-

"Am I really impatient?"

"Of course not, Principal, Joren is just that annoying."

"... I see... I see."

Ness nodded in understanding before playing some games before dropping onto the bed. When the morning came, Virena woke Ness after she made breakfast.

The two then took a bath together before Virena dressed Ness up.

"Oh yeah... I wonder what happened to Joren now."

Ness suddenly remembered and when the two of them came back, they could hear banging.

"They're still continuing?"

Ness raised an eyebrow before she and Virena looked at each other. When they went around, they could see Joren in front of the room, kicking the door which he would then put his foot in the room before closing it and doing it again.

It seemed that he had found the maximum efficiency for it. That's why he's become so bad.

"Good morning."

It took Joren a moment before he noticed and for the first time all night, he finally removed one of his hands from his pocket.

"Were you two on it all night?"

Ness asked with a bewildered expression. Even Virena has a small gap between her lips.

"Not really."

Joren shook his head as he continued kicking the door and hooking it close.

"Oh, then, you must've woken up early for that."

"Ah? Ahahaha, no, I didn't sleep. Mister Jack got tired midway through so I brought him home and that's when I continued."

Joren said with his large eyebags.

"Wait, by not really, you mean the part where you brought Jack home?"

This time, Virena asked.

"Huh?"

But Joren didn't seem to follow.

"I think... you should come down and get refreshed first."

Ness suggested, feeling a little guilty. Hearing this, Joren was delighted but he hesitated. However, it was an offer from the Principal so he agreed.

"Well, as long as it wouldn't take long."

"Ugh... you stink!"

Ness pinched her nose before they went down. When Joren was pulled by Virena down, he flinched and closed his eyes in ready for the painful travel. But before he could even feel anything, he heard.

"We're here now."

"Eh...?"

Joren looked at his own body and found that he was unharmed.

"What? How?"

"Uh... sorry about that. I can technically protect you from the current."

Ness said, expecting Joren to be angry since she hadn't done that since ever. However, against their expectations, Joren just smiled.

"That's cool. I feel like I've just taken a bath."

"No, please go take a shower."

Virena said as she prepared the towel.

As Joren took a sit in the bathtub while a shower washes his head, he felt something off.

'They're awfully accommodating...'

Ness and Virena have been helping him but he felt that Ness was just doing it as a whim. After all, it doesn't seem like there's anything eventful happening in their everyday life.

"Nah..."

But Joren just shook his shoulders before standing up. The bathtub was too comfortable that if he stays any longer, he might not be able to get up.

Meanwhile, outside of the bath, Ness looked at the ceiling and asked herself.

"How can he do it?"

"I think it's because he's just weird, Principal."

Virena answered.

"No, I don't think it's because he's weird. Also, I found that you're secretly helping him too, aren't you getting close to him?"

"... no such thing."

"I see..."

Soon, Joren came out with a training outfit that surprisingly fitted him.

"I feel refreshed and this clothing is comfortable."

Joren placed his hand in the pockets as the smooth cotton touch his skin for every movement he did.

"It's something that we have in the closet that we never really use."

"Why do you have it though?"

"I found it once in a store and it just looks so cool."

Ness said with a smile which made Joren tilt his head.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Huh?"

"I feel like you're not in the mood right now."

Ness looked at Virena to which the latter looked back but they don't know what to say.

"It's nothing?"

"... okay."

Joren doesn't think that he's actually close either towards Virena or Ness. So, if they don't want to say it to him then he had no right to push.

"But, you're really not lying when you said it's your training?"

Ness stood up and asked with an interrogative look.

"No, I thought you believed me."

"Hmm... that was a white lie."

She turned and touched her lips while pondering.

"What kind of training is that? How can you even get stronger?"

Ness then dropped onto the couch. She became curious. If it's just a joke, she would've left it as it is since she's bored anyway. However, Joren was actually serious about it.

"Um... I told you, I'm Abnormal. Isn't the Myth Academy the one who took me in?"

"Well, we don't really know each one of your abnormalities. We just know that you're abnormal... it's complicated."

Virena said since explaining everything to Joren again would be a hassle.

"I see."

Joren wasn't so surprised. He just asked for the sake of asking since he already knew the answer. They wouldn't ask him if they knew.

"So you won't tell us."

Ness squinted her eyes. At that moment, Joren felt that the aura around her changed. However, his lips were quite tight. Currently, he needs the Gangsta System. If he were to lose it, then he would lose the opportunity to get his soul and save Scarlett.

Of course, he hasn't forgotten her even though the days that passed by is more than the days they've been together.

"It's complicated too."

He excused. For a while, they stared at each other. Soon later, Ness scratched her forehead before standing up while pointing her index finger up.

"Alright! I'll go to the UnderWorld with you! Yey!"

Ness declared with a smile.

"What? Ah... Yey!"

Joren pumped and raised his fist as well.

"But why?"

"I'm curious if you're lying or not. How the hell is this training!? You're just kicking down doors and being rude! Therefore, I'm coming with you to the UnderWorld!"

"Is that possible?"

Joren looked at Virena for while she smiled and answered.

"No"

Ness froze as her eyes lost their soul.

"The Myth Academy and the UnderWorld are two separate places with different rulership. If the Principal went there without notice, Hades might think of it as mockery or something which offends him for some reason."

"Ugh... that guy's unreasonable."

Ness has to agree before hope filled her eyes again as she asked.

"How about we ask for permission first?"

"We'll have to talk to Zeus."

"Okay, I give up."

Ness dropped onto the couch and opened her console.

"I guess you really hate Zeus, huh..."

Joren commented. The situation was such a roller coaster but he wasn't that disappointed. He had thought of going alone in the first place.

"No, it's not that we really hate him." Virena shook her head, "But, we fear him. Not just him but the other Gods as well."

"Is it because they're powerful?"

"That and also, because they don't have respect for those below them. As Gods, they can do anything. They are just being restrained by each other. If there's only one God, that God would've gone down to Earth and done whatever he or she desires, which may lead the world to its inevitable destruction."

"Oh, that's bad."

Joren muttered before Virena shivered and continued.

"Also, that Zeus is just a pervert. Not just him. As long as it pleases them, they will do it. That's why we stay here in peace."

Virena said while Ness was nodding in agreement.

"Is that so... then why don't we just overtake them?"

Joren asked which made Virena and Ness looked at him as if he's stupid.

"If... you met Hades, you'll learn the power of a God."

Virena simply said which made Joren a little excited. They don't know but he was serious.

'I did say that I'm going to repay them.. This is two birds with one stone.'
