I Was Supposed to Graduate from Chuunibyou, but My Job Turned Out to Be 【Chuunibyou】 — I Get Weaker When I'm Embarrassed, So Today, Too, I'm Chanting Cringey Lines in All Seriousness

by Shiminuki

The cringey lore middle-school me wrote has become the strongest power in the world, exactly as written. Ichinose Saku, fifteen. I graduated from chuunibyou the day I entered high school. Threw out the bandages and the eyepatch too. As of today, I'm a normal high schooler. Flawless. And then the status appraisal results: Job, 【Chuunibyou】. ......Huh? Apparently a world first. The Guild erupted in murmurs, my friends were dying of laughter, and only the receptionist's voice suddenly turned gentle. I buried my head in my hands. I graduated, though? I threw all that out just last week, though? Whatever. No point getting down about it. Life has days like this. The moment I reread my dark-history notebook at home with that in mind, my status rewrote itself. Exactly as middle-school me had written it — the settings of the King who ended all timelines. This works. This Job's a jackpot. I'm the strongest. Got carried away and chanted it aloud. It actually activated. Yep, definitely the strongest. But there was a condition: keep chanting cringey lines — in full earnest. Go silent and the power vanishes. Fumble the words and it weakens. Get embarrassed, and I'm just a normal high schooler. The moment I came back to my senses, the power was gone. The story of a former chuunibyou boy who just wanted to graduate — fighting his own shame on the way to becoming the strongest — begins here and now.
