When I was seven, I met a little boy with blond hair and dark skin.
He was super cute and had a great personality. I wanted to be his friend.
The other kids were always picking on little Rei, so I beat them all up and argued with them to defend my childhood friend.
"He looks so weird. Go back to your own country. Don't stay here!"
"Little Rei is super cute! You're just jealous because you're so ugly!"
"He's the ugly one! Shota is the cutest boy in all of Tokyo!"
"Little Rei is the cutest boy in all of Japan!"
"Shota is the cutest boy in all of, all of Asia!"
"Little Rei is the cutest boy on Earth, in the whole solar system, and in the whole galaxy!"
The other kids weren't cute, and they were idiots, too. They couldn't think of anything bigger than the galaxy, so they ran off crying.
My childhood friend blushed and told me not to fight people for his sake. Getting hurt would be painful.
"It won't happen," I told him. "I have superpowers."
When we grew up, all my friends found good jobs, and I never heard of some evil organization that was fond of selling liquor.
I declared grandly, "Rei, this is the empire I conquered for you."
My childhood friend said helplessly, "Shinri, you're too old to still have a chuunibyou phase."
Hmph. He had no idea how incredible I was.
An if-route from the other story, if it were a childhood-friends romance.
