Revelation Of An Ordinary Life

Operation Delta

It was weird, but I got to school with no problems for once.

Murphy's law, was it? Anything that can go wrong will go wrong. It feels far too nice and comfortable right now, and it's very unnerving. I got to my seat in the theatre as usual, but I noticed that Ike looked nervous today.

This isn't unusual since, for the past few days, he's often been jumpy and alert. I guess that he might be nervous about the incredibly immoral operation he conducted during the summer. I guess that was bound to be shown eventually, so I can't say that I'm surprised.

"Today's video is titled' operation delta', enjoy."

I think Ike lost part of his lifespan after hearing that.

"Hey, Ike," I whispered to him.

"What?" He sounds uneasy.

"Why didn't you go to the private room?" It was the logical choice currently.

Although Ike looked like I just told him something that ended his life, "Fuck, I forgot about that. Aww man, I have to sit through this now," Ike whined.

I couldn't really make him feel better, so I turned my eyes to the projector.

What should a man aim for in life? If you asked men from all over the world, you'd probably see a pattern emerge: find a partner and make love, produce offspring, raise those offspring. Amusement parks, movies, and video games are all very well. However, the plethora of entertainment options available to us these days is just a blip in the grand scheme of human history. Nearly all living beings have sought to pass the torch on to the next generation since ancient times.

"Don't you think you're generalising a bit?" Kanzaki wondered

Obviously, I didn't mean that all men wanted a hedonistic life, but I'm sure that if given the option, many would take it.

"I guess so, but I don't think it's something that people would be opposed to doing," I explained.

He grumbled an "I guess you're not wrong."

However, young high school boys have no understanding of what it means to bring forth the next generation. Instead, they simply seek any and all immediate available sexual gratification.

The sudden shift in tone made everyone confused.

"Now then, I'd like to hold a strategy meeting regarding Operation Delta."

I saw that Ike looked very concerned, but Sudo wasn't like that. It's not as if he wasn't nervous at all, he was darting his eyes around and his leg was quickly going up and down in the same spot. Although on a scale of 1 to 10, Sudo would be a 5 while Ike would be an 11.

A few people noticed the feverish Ike and asked him the usual 'are you okay?' He brushed it off casually, but it was not at all believable. The students in the room thought it was probably something perverted due to my wording and Ike's... existence.

Ike, from Class D, knelt on the floor. He used his clenched fist to wipe the sweat that began to trickle down his forehead. "I'd lay my life on the line for Operation Delta. Haruki, how about you?"

"I feel the same as you, Kanji. If this operation is a success, I won'teven mind dying!" Yamauchi shouted.

Sudou, who'd silently observed so far, chimed in. "Honestly, I'm against it. I'll make a decision after I hear you out."

"So then, Ayanokouji, you're joining in too, right?"

"Is it okay if I turn on the air conditioner?" I asked. No good would come of the room reeking of sweat.
