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

"So that is your question, I see." Virena muttered before adding with her normal monotonous voice, "... said by the principal."

Joren found something incredibly fishy. He should be used to fishiness by now but he could really tap his finger onto it.

"Scarlett Fross is now removed from her job." Virena suddenly made Joren forgot about the fishiness.

"Removed from her job!?" he initially exclaimed but soon, he calmed himself. It shouldn\'t be that bad, right?

"Can I know the reason?"

"Why do you want to know?... asked the principal." Virena immediately replied.

Ignoring the fact that this silhouette in front of him was not even moving its jaw or anything, Joren answered.

"Because she\'s mine."

"Fine, said the pri- wait what?"

Virena\'s expression couldn\'t be seen but it was obvious that she was startled by Joren\'s unhesitant answer.

"She\'s yours? Did I hear correctly?... the principal asked."

"Yes, that\'s why I want to know."

Joren said as if there\'s nothing wrong with it.

"Didn\'t you just arrived here yesterday?" Virena muttered and added, "...the principal muttered.". Soon, she shrugged her shoulders as she treated Joren\'s words as nothing. What is there to be shocked about? it\'s not like Scarlett herself confirmed his words.

"Don\'t be so bold to assume things, boy... the principal looks down on you." Virena lifted her chin.

"Hm?" Joren was staring at the monster from the start, this time, he couldn\'t help but glance at Virena.

"But since you asked, I shall answer... the principal tolerated." Virena shook her head and continued, "...the principal continued, this is actually because of a God."

"A G-god?" Joren stammered. He just asked why Scarlett was fired, how did it concern a God? Isn\'t that skipping all the steps?

"Do you know the god of greek mythology, the god who rules over gods, the horny god who seriously needs to be imprisoned since he couldn\'t keep his penis in his pants?... the principal said in disgust"

"..." Joren slowly shook his head. He didn\'t know much about mythologies in the first place. However, there\'s a god like that?"

"Hm... do you know the God of Sky, Zeus?... the principal straightforwardly asked."

"Ah, Zeus, yeah, I don\'t know a person who didn\'t know this guy." Joren finally nodded his head as if he forgot why he was in the first place. Only after a few moments did he ask, "So how about him?"

"That old man still lusts every virgin woman he could find. The reason why I gave a woman like Scarlett a job that is always going out and not really staying in the academy is to protect her from that old bastard. I think she\'s aware of it but I don\'t know why she stayed this time and even volunteered to take care of you..." Virena then followed, "... the principal pondered."

"Then," Joren clenched his fists, "Is this for real?"

"Wait... the principal waved her hands to stop Joren\'s assumption," Virena said while waving her hand, "Scarlett is still safe.

Once again, Joren saw no movements on the silhouette and only took a glance at this secretary on the peripheral of his eyes. Ignoring this "play" he hopefully asked.

"How is she still safe?"

"Zeus just fancied her first. However, he still got to escape Hera\'s sight before he could do anything. Since Hera is always prepared for this, I don\'t think even the god of gods can escape her that easily." Virena smiled as she explained before turning expressionless and turned to her normal voice again, "... the principal amusedly explained."

"Then..." Joren mumbled as he contemplated on this, "can I meet this Zeus?"

"Careful, Joren, although that God is useless and the father of all cheaters, he is still Zeus. Even I would have a problem getting to him, much less you, a Braindead Abnormal." Virena raised her hand, "... the principal destroyed Joren\'s hopes."

Joren\'s eyes turned sharp, opposite from what Virena said, "Can I know how?"

"..." Virena stared at Joren for a moment before whispering, "... the principal was speechless by this idiot\'s thickheadedness."

"Huh?" Joren raised his chin and looked down, "Can you stop that? Cause my seriously pissed right now."

"Stop what?... the principal asked. She cannot believe that this Braindead Abnormal dares to speak to her like that."

"Just tell me how I can speak with Zeus?" Joren\'s voice became heavier.

"Do you know what a god even is?"

An intimidating aura came from Virena\'s body as she stepped forward, trying to daunt Joren.

"... the principal had enough of this Abnormal\'s disrespectful attitude."

"Is that real or just a narration from you, Principal Virena?" instead of backing out, Joren stepped forward too. For the first time, he met someone who was not only scared by his gaze but was also trying to scare him off.

"I\'m not the principal." Virena only replied with her monotonous voice.

"Quit the act! I\'m asking how to get to this God of Gods!"

"Hah, Virena, why don\'t you teach this imbecile that strength is the first requirement in meeting a god and how he lacks in it!" Virena punched her palm, blowing up a wind, "... ordered by the principal."

"Strength, huh..." Joren muttered as he got his first answer when Virena suddenly pounced on him.

<Be careful!> the fish suddenly talked to him.

"Heh! Don\'t underestimate me! I\'m not high this time!" Joren quickly unbelted himself, taking Virena by surprise before he shielded him first. Although strength does not equal toughness, it should help, right?

"What the fuck is wrong with you?"

That was the last words Joren heard before Virena punched and-

Boom*

The wind exploded and blew off Virena\'s hood, revealing her long red hair and glowing red eyes. The fangs behind her lips were fully revealed while her pale complexion was something to be admired off.

Although she couldn\'t compete against Scarlett\'s mature charms, Virena has her own kind of cool charm. The expressionless face she gives would give everyone the feeling that she\'s an ice queen.

However, Joren was in no state to admire her beauty as he was blasted off by Virena\'s punch!

Flying through the fog, he only stopped when he hit a wood.

<I told you to be careful! That girl is no ordinary monster, she\'s a vampire! Unless you have something as her weakness, you will not scratch her with your level!>

"D-damn... I can\'t feel my right arm..." Joren turned pale as he looked at his forearm that took the punch. Virena\'s seemingly delicate fist actually carved itself on his forearm, "I thought I lost it, huu..."

<You\'re lucky she\'s just warning you. That\'s far from her real strength. Do you realize why I said you need strength? This place may be called an academy but it is far from being a normal school. This is the world of monsters! Monsters that once terrorized humans, no, even now they do!>

"Joren, I\'m impressed that you weren\'t knocked out by that. Don\'t worry, I pull my punches and as long as you have a single thread of life left, you can be restored to full life. I don\'t have the authority to kill an Abnormal, after all."

Virena sternly said while turning her back to Joren and walking back to her original position.

"That punch was still pulled? Good grief, how naive I am to think that I shouldn\'t counterattack since you\'re a girl."

Virena stopped in her tracks and turned her head towards Joren with furrowed eyebrows.

Joren slowly stood up while adjusting his pants. He was looking at a position where he can easily pull it up and down.

"Tsk! I need much more suitable pants for this." he whispered before he looked at the faded figure of Virena due to the fog.

"You want to be beaten that badly?" Virena began to walk to him.

While caressing his forearm with a pained expression, Joren walked forward.

<Woah, woah, what are you doing!? You\'re going to die here!>

"She won\'t kill me, right?"

<She\'s a monster, how can you trust her words!?>

"Also, this is an opportunity to see how I fare off to the principal. Since I need strength first, I need it fast."

"Who are you talking to?" Virena asked before stopping.

"The same could be said to you, Principal Virena." Joren replied without fear on his face as he also stopped.

The two of them stood face to face with only a meter in between.

<What? How did he get that dauntlessness from? He still only has 10 Thugness. Even the Gangsta God back then needs 300 Thugness...>

"Do you mean I\'m talking to nothing like you?" Virena asked with a sharp glint on her eyes, she still looked down on Joren though.

"Is that what it sounds like? Because it is."

"You are just not fit to meet Principal Ness."

"Let\'s see about that." Joren widely smiled. Coupled with his intimidating gaze, he truly looked like a normal thug under a villain, "Also, I don\'t hold back to strong women."

"Heh...!" Virena just sneered as she casually raised one of her legs to kick. Even though she was not showing effort on the movement, seemingly not having a force behind it, the disturbed wind says otherwise.

<I thought you\'re smarter than this, Joren. Cowardice has some importance too.>

But as the fish said that, a black shoe just hit Virena\'s beautiful face. Of course, in that black shoe was Joren\'s foot.

"Huh....?"
