Arriving at the presud ho of Kotori Itsuka and forr Shido Itsuka, I make a quick scan of the ho, only to find it completely barren of abnormal utilities.
Then, I directly head over to the second floor, where I proceed to enter 'my' room before using Destruction to get rid of my soaked clothes and create new clothes using Creation.
The reason I didn't put on the clothes present in Shido's closet is simply that they look horrendous.
Looking around the ordinary room, I realize that there isn't even a mirror, so I resort to using Clairvoyance to check my appearance out.
My appearance has indeed changed. Unlike before, my eyes could be mistaken for ordinary ones if they weren't red.
Apart from that, the color of my hair has now beco even more sandy, making it easy to mistake for pale blonde.
Finally, my height has seemingly increased as well. From the looks of it, by three or so centiters.
Done with the changes, I inspect the clothes that I created and how well they suit the current .
For this world, I decided to go with an attire that falls right in between formal and casual wear.
As such, I am currently wearing black trousers along with white shoes. For the torso, I am wearing a simple white business shirt.
After a few seconds of inspecting myself, I roll up both of my sleeves a few tis before smiling with satisfaction.
Done here, I let out a small sigh before leaving my room and heading downstairs to the kitchen. There, I take a seat at the dining table before leaning back and staring at the ceiling.
What do I do now? This is the Platform that Dominion had shared data about. Despite my arrival, Dominion has yet to make an appearance.
Either they don't know of my arrival, or they simply more important matter to tend to.
Anyway, as long as I'm not being pursued, I can act 'normally'. The problem with that would be how the 'original' Shido acted is drastically different from my way of doing things.
Just as I begin to think that I will have plenty of ti to think over anything, the sound of a door opening reaches my ears.
Looking over, I find Kotori, who is giving off quite a different vibe compared to before, entering the house with a bright smile covering her lips.
She looks around a little before coming over to the kitchen and saying in a cheerful tone, "Oh, Big Brother, you're already ho! Are those clothes new? They suit you so well!"
Baffled by the unexpected cheerfulness, I subconsciously respond, "Thanks."
Wait, hold on, what's with this situation? Isn't she acting too differently? Was the persona she adopted in the flying vessel a fake one to prevent her position from shaking?
Upon deliberating on the matter, a few mories flash through my mind regarding how Kotori used to be like before.
Simply put, she was a rather naive and innocent girl that was practically comparable to an angel, albeit a dumb one.
"Welco back, Kotori," I say with a smile plastered to my lips.
---
Opening my eyes, I am t with sunlight shining through the window of my room.
Getting off my bed, I stretch my body a little before using Clairvoyance to check on Kotori, only to find her still asleep.
It seems like I've woken up quite early.
I take in a deep breath before creating a new set of my school uniform and changing into them.
Then, I exit my room and head to the kitchen where I am 'supposed' to prepare breakfast for both and Kotori.
For so reason, the 'original' Shido was always the one that prepared all three als of the day and oddly enough, his mories regarding cooking are all deeply settled into my mind.
Still, I won't be cooking anything but will use my Creation instead.
Nevertheless, I can't overuse my powers. My energy should always be above 85%, lest I want to dig myself a hole.
After all, I should have sufficient energy in this Platform. I an, only one day has passed and I've already encountered two Codes. For all I know, I could encounter a troubleso at any given mont.
So, it would be preferred that I keep myself from wasting my Essence Energy.
Well then, ti to get this day started.

"Well then, students," our horoom teacher, Tamae Okamine, the very sa teacher that Shido Itsuka 'confessed' to as per Kotori's orders, says, "Listen up. We have a new student today."
Following her words, a certain glutton with long hair enters the room and stands in front of the class with a confident look on her face.
"Hello everyone! I'm Tohka Yatogami!" she says, "Pleased to et you all!"
After that, Tohka glances over at before a bright smile covers her lips as she waves her arm and says, "Shido!"
As a response to her actions, I simply wave back while glimpsing at Origami who is slightly injured from yesterday's events.
Surprisingly, she is cool-headed and doesn't seem to be willing to start a fight with Tohka.
Well, I guess she can't just do that at school
Still, I am currently being sent quite a few curious glances as the students begin to speak among themselves.
"Hey, he has changed hasn't he?"
"Is he trying to look like a delinquent?"
"How la."
Not heeding much attention to their remarks, I lay back against my seat and close my eyes.
---
"Well then, it's about ti we went ho," I mutter to myself.
Today, I acted in a manner that was rather similar to the 'original' Shido Itsuka, except the fact that I didn't interact with anyone much, including Tohka.
Fortunately, she didn't seem to mind it as she was caught up by school and such matters.
Just as I am about to prepare to leave, the classroom door slides open as Tohka enters the class and hurries over to my desk.
"Shido! I made these things called cookies!" she says before slamming a box filled with 'cute' cookies onto my desk, attracting the attention of everyone present in class.
"The students in the cooking class helped make them! Please try eating one!"
"Alright," I casually respond before reaching out to one of them and eating it in one go.
After a few seconds, I nod my head and say with a smile, "They're great."
"Really?!" Tohka says in a perky voice as stars seem to shimr in her eyes.
"Of course," I say before placing my palm atop her head and patting her ever so slowly.
Following my actions, quite a number of students glare at while a few girls shriek.
It's just a head pat
At this mont, a figure holding a box steps into the class and walks over to my desk.
"Origami?" I nonchalantly say once she's close enough.
"I'm sorry," she suddenly says while bowing.
"What for?"
"Shooting you," she responds expressionlessly.
"Eh?" a female classmate's bewildered voice escapes her lips, "The super genius is apologizing while bowing?"
"What does she an by shooting anyway?" another student asks.
"Shooting pictures?" a guy dubiously says.
Ignoring the students, I extend my arm and place it against Origami's bruised face before gifting her Regeneration.
Soon enough, Origami's condition returns to its pri as her skin becos flawless.
At this mont, a whistle resounds within the room as the class turns a little hectic with discussion.
Alright, no one seems to have noticed the disappearance of her injuries.
"Why are you here?" I ask before glancing at the box in her hands.
"Here," she says while presenting the box which also contains cookies.
Compared to Tohka's cookies, they look more professional than sothing made with joy.
"Hey," Tohka suddenly says while pouting, "Shido is going to be eating my cookies!"
"Wrong," Origami responds as expressionlessly as ever, "He will be eating mine."
This is troubleso. I need to create a distraction.
While keeping my eyes locked on Origami, I use Clairvoyance to look around the class before settling my sight on a brown-haired male that is glaring at .
I proceed to use Indoctrination on him before relaying an order to him - Climb the nearest desk and hurl yourself at a male student while screaming at the top of your lunges.
The next mont, a figure steps through the door and holds up a plastic bag containing cookies before saying, "Hey Shido, a kind stranger gave so cookies. Want to eat with ?"
Ah, this is Shido Itsuka's friend. His na is Hiroto Tonomachi, and simply put, he's an odd guy.
Unfortunately for him, he just so happens to be the closest student to the guy that I just indoctrinated.
"Ahhh!" a loud cry resounds within the class as a horrified look appears on Hiroto's face before the indoctrinated student's body drops on him.
The students all begin to laugh out loud, while Tohka and Origami both curiously observe the scene.
Good. I succeeded.

"Hi, Shin," a woman that looks like she hasn't slept for days greets as I step into the kitchen after returning ho from school.
She's seated at the dining table beside Kotori who is now giving off the sa vibe she did back on the ship.
Her attire is the sa as usual, apart from her ribbons which are now black instead of white.
Letting out a sigh, I take a seat at the dining table and say, "Hello, Ms. Reine."
Then, I shift my focus to my sister and say, "Kotori, I need you to recount everything that has happened within the past few days. Perhaps, that would jog my mories."
A serious look appears on Kotori's face before she nods her head and begins to do as I requested of her.
