Mash-up Anime World: Creating the SCP Foundation to Contain Anomalies Chapter 434 - 421: Invitation to the Daihaseisai

Hey everyone, Translator san here.

First of all, sorry for the unstable update these past few days. College decided to test my sanity, and I've been buried under lessons, advanced studies, codes and even preparing for a debate this upcoming next week.

Bruh, its only the first month of class, why they have to go hard for us freshn's T-T.

To make things worse, my classes start at 7:30/8 AM and don't let go until 7 PM… only tad bit short and I'll be living in my school.

Can't even read shit anymore.

But don't worry, I haven't forgotten about translations, but its not the sa daily update anymore.

I hope yall understand.

Xiao~

================

It was truly a speechless discovery.

Three high school JK girls—And not one of them could do makeup.

Yukinoshita Yukino was naturally beautiful. And she generally didn't care about how others saw her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have that kind of icy personality with no friends.

She lived by her own sense of justice.

So when it ca to makeup—altering her appearance—she had zero interest.

Komi Shouko was about the sa. She'd never touched makeup before. And with her looks, she didn't exactly need it.

As for Yuigahama Yui—

Miss Dango could do makeup.

But only gyaru-style makeup. After all, when she entered high school, she'd tried dressing as a gyaru.

It helped her make more friends—

And also served as a way to protect herself.

After all, in Japan, gyaru still carried a certain "don't ss with " image among students. But when it ca to the precise eye-shaping makeup technique they needed—

Miss Dango was clearly out of her depth.

Seeing this scene, Haruto sighed helplessly. He moved two chairs in front of the mirror. Then, he gestured for Komi Shouko to co over.

In the end, it still ca down to him.

This useless Service Club—without him, it'd fall apart sooner or later!

Komi blinked, then quickly walked over.

Yukinoshita and Yuigahama exchanged a glance—

Seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

Why did Haruto know how to do makeup!? Wasn't this supposed to be a skill only JKs could master?

Haruto reached into his backpack—

Well, technically, his Kamui space—

And took out a full professional makeup kit.

All kinds of tools, perfectly complete.

Yukino and Yui were even more stunned. What normal male high school student carried a full set of professional makeup tools?

"Haruto-kun, don't tell you work part-ti as an idol's makeup artist?"

Yuigahama asked curiously.

Haruto thought for a mont, then nodded.

"Pretty much. Sotis I do part-ti as Ai's makeup artist."

At that, Yui's eyes widened.

"Ai? You an the legendary idol, Hoshino Ai!?"

Even though she wasn't really into idols—Hoshino Ai's fa was simply too huge. She was basically Japan's national idol by now.

Haruto, on the other hand, didn't think much of Ai's popularity.

That girl—privately—was nothing like her idol image.

She was more like a cunning, slightly perverted little sister. And as they spoke, Haruto's fingers moved like flowing water.

Before anyone realized it, Komi's eye makeup was already done.

Haruto stepped back a little, looking over the result, then clapped his hands in satisfaction.

Komi waited until he stepped back—

Then looked at the mirror.

And she froze completely.

Was this… really her?

It was only eye makeup.

And it wasn't heavy—on the contrary, it looked so natural, it was like she wasn't wearing any.

Through a bit of eyeshadow and carefully drawn eyeliner—

Komi's eye shape was completely changed.

And it didn't look the least bit unnatural.

Now, even if her gaze was still sharp—

It was hard for anyone to feel intimidated. Instead, her eyes now felt—Like a clear spring in the middle of a desert.

Clear and alluring.

Yukino and Yui both leaned closer for a look.

And both were deeply impressed.

"It's like she has a completely different pair of eyes. This is basically magic!"

Yuigahama exclaid.

She had so makeup knowledge—

Which only made her appreciate even more—

Just how skilled Haruto's technique really was.

Yukinoshita, anwhile, eyed Haruto suspiciously.

Why was he so good at makeup?

Could it be—

That this face of his, so deadly to girls, was actually drawn on?

As if sensing Yukino's thoughts—Haruto picked up a makeup remover pad and wiped at the corner of his eye and along his nose.

Then smiled at her.

Yukino quickly looked away.

Haruto's makeup skills—

Of course ca from the Blacklight Virus. And besides, with a few girls in his household interested in makeup—

They occasionally used him for practice.

That's how he'd perfected this god-tier sorcery.

"Alright, all done. Next is convincing the class to agree to the the decorations. That part, I'll leave to Yukino and Miss Dango—I'm counting on you!"

Haruto said, patting both girls on the shoulder.

Yuigahama imdiately nodded.

And Yukinoshita also felt that Haruto had done so much for this club activity already—If she asked him to handle this too, they might as well disband the Service Club.

Seeing her nod as well—

Haruto smiled.

"Then, this Service Club request is basically complete. But, Yukino-san, I also have a request I'd like the Service Club's help with."

At that, Yukinoshita raised a brow.

"Let's hear it."

She was curious.

What request could Haruto possibly have?

After all, Haruto always gave off the impression of being strong and capable at everything. It was hard to imagine soone like him ever needing to ask for help.

"Long story short, I need you to help request so leave. I have an invitation to attend during the school festival, so I'll need a few days off—please take care of it for !"

And with that, Haruto vanished in a flash.

Yukino: "?"

By the ti she processed it—

And went to look for him—

He was already gone.

Her teeth ground slightly in irritation.

Yuigahama, on the other hand, looked puzzled.

"Eh? If it's just asking for leave, Haruto-kun could do that himself, right? Why ask the Service Club?"

Yukinoshita clenched her teeth a little.

"That guy spent two sesters on exchanges. Hiratsuka-sensei already has quite an opinion of him. This sester he finally stayed put, and now he's asking for leave again. When Hiratsuka-sensei hears that—"

At that—

Yuigahama also rembered.

That highly unique teacher, Hiratsuka Shizuka who sotis sighed at Haruto's empty seat.

At a ti like this, asking for leave…

It was definitely not going to go well!

Just imagining Hiratsuka-sensei's reaction—

Yuigahama couldn't help shivering.

That was a teacher who could throw students with a shoulder throw! No wonder Haruto wanted the Service Club to ask in his place.

As for Haruto—

He felt zero guilt about bailing and dumping this on them.

It was ti the Service Club girls learned—

That pies don't fall from the sky.

And there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

First lesson of society!

As for Haruto's invitation during the school festival—

It ca from Academy City.

From none other than Miss Misaki Shokuhou.

An invitation to the Daihaseisai.

The Daihaseisai was a traditional Academy City event. Held annually, it was a massive seven-day sports festival organized by all the schools together.

With over 1.8 million participants.

It was one of the few tis in the year when Academy City was open to the public. All students participated by school, and all events were essentially competitions between espers.

During the event, Academy City was almost fully open to visitors, with TV broadcasts as well.

Although the events were ordinary athletic competitions—Because esper abilities could be used, it was basically a grand superpowered battle.

Now, Academy City had been transferred to the main world.

Opening it to the outside was tricky—

But holding large-scale events was no problem.

It had been quite so ti since Academy City appeared in the Pacific.

During this period—

The Foundation had gradually released information about the developnt of a new island in the Pacific.

By now—

Aside from information on esper abilities—

The existence of Academy City was essentially known to the public.

To the outside world, Academy City was understood as a cutting-edge research academy developed by two major Japanese conglorates, costing imnse resources.

Each year, it admitted a limited number of people from around the globe.

It was widely known as a high-tech ocean city.

As for when esper abilities would be officially announced—That would likely still require a long buildup.

Haruto indeed wanted to visit Academy City—

To see the developnt of Star Sea Academy.

And since it was Misaki Shokuhou's invitation—

Naturally, Haruto had no reason to refuse.

So… Yukino would just have to take a little hit for him.
