The prologue of the story starts on monday, the first day of the week where activities brimming with energy begin, however, that's not the case with Nagumo Hajime, to him, school is just a depressing and troublesome place. Sleepy from pulling all-nighter, he totteringly enter the class. When he enter the class, the majority of the male students in the class click their tongues while glaring at him. The female students are different, but they are not friendly as well, they're apathetic and indifferent towards him. A male student, Hiyama Daisuke, making fun of him (calling him disgusting otaku) and his group (Saitou Yoshiki, Kondou Reiichi, Nakano Shinji) are guffawing with him. Hajime really is an otaku, but he is not disgusting. He cut his hair short so there are no bed-hair, although he is quiet, that doesn't mean his communication skill is bad. He's just a normal person who like manga anime and stuff like that. Those 4 students frequently bully him, reason is?
"Nagumo-kun, morning! As usual, you come just nick in time, you should arrive earlier"
The girl who greets him. In this school, she is one of very few person that is friendly with Hajime. Her name is Shirasaki Kaori. Kaori, is one of two most popular angels at school. Her glossy black straight hair that reach her waist, her rather big eyes that is filled with kindness, cute small nose and cherry lips that arranged perfectly, complete with her big heart and strong sense of responsibility, making her a figure of kindness and diligent. Why does a popular girl such as her cares for Hajime? It's because Hajime is always pulling an all-nighter and one of those unsteady student who does not care with his result, which naturally attract Kaori who likes to takes care of other people. Hajime greets her back and he can feel killing intent directed toward him from all direction. That's right, Hajime is hated because he is close to Kaori. Looking at Kaori smiling face, Hajime could only wonder why Kaori minds him so much? well, He is not a wishful person who thinks that Kaori might have some feelings to him, since he knows that it's because Kaori has a strong sense of responsibility. But that's actually troubling him, Hajime wish Kaori would just realize the killing intent around and leave him alone. When he was going to terminate the communication, 3 students joined the conversation.
"Nagumo-kun. Morning. It must be hard for you everyday."
"Kaori, you still caring for another students? Good grief, you really are so kind"
"Really, though I think it's useless to talk to a guy like him who has no motivation at all"
These three students are also one of those very few students who is friendly toward Hajime. Their names are: Yaegashi Shizuku, Kaori best friend. Her trademark is black ponytail hair. Her eyes are sharp and while kindness could be seen, it also gives her a cool impression. With 172 cm of height, her dignified appearance reminded us to Samurai. Her house is actually a dojo of Yaegashii sword style, and Shizuku herself is a stalwart that haven't yet tasted defeat in any kendo tournament since elementary school. She is famous even to the girls. And then the other guy who praises Kaori as kind, is Amanogawa Kouki. This guys with a cool name like that of a hero, has an attractive face and figure, excellent grades, and very athletic. Rustling brown hair with gentle eyes, height of 180 cm and slender body. He is kind to everyone and has a very strong sense of justice. Since elementary school, he attended Yaegashii dojo, making him another stalwart and Shizuku childhood friend. Dozens of girls are aiming their eyes toward him, but since he always close to Shizuku and Kaori, looks like there aren't any girls who is brave enough to confess to him. The last guy with casual remarks, is Sakagami Ryuutarou. He is Kouki best friend, Sharp eyes mixed with merry feeling, very short hair and large build of body at 190 cm. At first glance it obvious this guy is the hot-blooded type. The things he likes are, effort or fervor or guts. He looks like the person who hate guys like Hajime who has no motivation.
Hajime greets them back. Kouki advise him to fix his attitude and not to depend on Kaori too much. Hajime want to say that he is not taking advantage of Kaori or something like that but he just kept silent, since it's useless to say it to him. And then, fixed he say, but it's impossible for Hajime, since his father is a game creator and his mother a shoujo mangaka. It's just hard to change what has been rooted for so long. Hajime just let it off with a wry smile. But as usual the angel drops a big bomb toward them. Kaori said she talked to Hajime because she wants to talk to him. Killing intent increases, and Hajime just looked toward the blue sky in an attempt to run from reality. Kouki again praises Kaori for being kind. Kouki is the type who always thinks that his opinion is right, but Hajime thought it's dangerous for him since Kouki sometimes didn't think about the other people feelings. Shizuku who understand the relations between each person, tell Hajime that both Kouki and Kaori didn't harbor ill will toward him. Hajime just shrug his shoulder and smile wryly. The chime rings, signalling the start of class, and Hajime just passed the class by sleeping.
Recess, Hajime regretted his foolishness for sleeping in, he now lose the chance to get outside quickly. Kaori invites him to eat together with her. Inside his heart, Hajime grumble. He kindly refuses Kaori invitation by telling he is full and she should eat with Kouki and others. Kaori is surprised to hear that Hajime only eats little, out of worry she ask again to eat with her, while she shares her lunch with him. Hajime screams in his heart. Kouki invite Kaori to eat with them (Kouki, Shizuku, Ryuutarou) and said that he will not permit Hajime for eating Kaori's delicious cooking while still half-asleep. Kouki flashed a handsome smile, but unfortunately, it does not have any effect to Kaori who is a natural dense (small quantity). She then innocently ask why Hajime needs Kouki permission. Shizuku unintentionally spurt into laughter while Kouki embarassedly laugh. As if trying to escape reality, Hajime jokingly pray for any god or priestess or shrine maiden to transfer them to another world. And it happened... Magic circle with geometric pattern started to shine brightly under Kouki feet. The class soon thrown into confusion and disorder. Their teacher who just arrived order them to get out from the class but it's too late, the light shines brightly and filled that class. This incident is known as one of those spirited away case, but that's for another story.
