Although the Nakano quintuplets look almost identical, each of them has completely different interests.
Take Itsuki Nakano, for example. She absolutely loves food. Every day she thinks about trying something delicious. Even her visit to the school store today wasn't because she forgot her lunch—she simply wanted to try the newly released snacks.
As for Nino Nakano, she is the most fashionable among the five sisters and also the best cook. Most of the meals at home are prepared by her.
At the same time, she is well known among the sisters for judging people by appearance—especially when it comes to handsome boys.
On the very first day of school, she had spotted Luo Yu from afar on campus and had already taken notice of him.
Later, when Itsuki mentioned that she had met Luo Yu on the rooftop while eating lunch and even chatted with him, Nino had been extremely jealous.
And today, her luck turned out to be unexpectedly good.
Itsuki had dragged her along to buy snacks—and they just happened to run into Luo Yu.
Now that she was seeing him up close, Nino realized something.
Luo Yu was even more handsome than he had appeared from a distance. In fact, his presence was striking.
Naturally, Luo Yu also noticed Nino's gaze. Since he remembered that she was someone who cared deeply about appearances, he didn't pay it much attention.
Standing at the end of the line, he asked Itsuki,
"There are a lot of people today. Did they release new snacks again?"
The moment food was mentioned, Itsuki's smile grew even brighter.
"Yes! Besides a new pork cutlet sandwich, there's also a new flavor of daifuku today!"
"I want to buy both, but with so many people in line, I'm not sure if there will still be any left when it's my turn."
Hearing that, Luo Yu used his height advantage to glance over the crowd toward the front of the line and the nearby display shelves.
"Looks like there's still plenty left. You should be able to get them."
"And you arrived pretty early—there are still many students coming in behind us."
Following the direction he pointed, Itsuki also noticed several students heading toward the store and sighed in relief.
Meanwhile, after watching Luo Yu chatting happily with Itsuki, Nino couldn't help feeling a little envious.
Seeing that Luo Yu's hands were empty, she quickly asked,
"Luo Yu, are you buying lunch?"
Luo Yu smiled and shook his head.
"Not really. I just came to buy some drinks and pick up some food for someone else. I brought my own lunch."
Itsuki immediately added,
"Hehe, Nino, remember when I told you before? Luo Yu's lunch looked really delicious. It's honestly not worse than your cooking!"
Nino had heard this claim before.
But hearing it again now made her even more skeptical.
Cooking was one of the things she was most proud of among the five sisters.
Looking at Luo Yu curiously, she asked,
"Really?"
Luo Yu chuckled.
"I just cook casually for myself. Don't believe everything she says."
While speaking, the line moved forward again.
Luo Yu pointed toward the front.
"Let's focus on the line first. It's almost our turn."
Two minutes later, it was finally their turn.
Itsuki excitedly bought a large pile of snacks.
Nino, on the other hand, simply purchased a can of coffee.
When it was Luo Yu's turn, he bought three cans of juice. Then, remembering Yukino's request, he also picked up bread and rice balls for her.
After paying and packing everything, Itsuki asked curiously,
"Luo Yu, where are you planning to eat lunch today? Do you want to come eat on the rooftop with us?"
Nino was surprised by how proactive Itsuki was and glanced at her before turning to Luo Yu expectantly.
But Luo Yu simply smiled and waved his hand.
"Maybe next time. Someone's waiting for me today, so I should go."
"See you later."
The two sisters watched as he left.
Itsuki rubbed her stomach before turning to Nino.
"Let's go eat on the rooftop."
Although Nino felt a bit disappointed, she still nodded and followed Itsuki toward the rooftop.
Meanwhile, Luo Yu headed directly toward the floor where the Service Club room was located.
When he arrived, the clubroom door was already open.
Inside, Yukino Yukinoshita and Miko Yotsuya were both seated.
Miko Yotsuya looked extremely excited as she held up her Astrologer's Staff, demonstrating it to Yukino.
Knocking lightly on the door, Luo Yu walked inside.
"Good afternoon. Looks like you two are having a lively conversation."
Miko Yotsuya grinned brightly.
"Ah, Luo Yu! Good afternoon!"
"Hehe, having someone like me around is really exciting! I was just about to show Yukino Yukinoshita the magic I've learned!"
Pulling out a chair, Luo Yu sat down and smiled.
"Sure, but since the environment here isn't suitable, don't use any attack spells."
"Let me see how well you've learned Starlight."
"No problem!"
Holding her Astrologer's Staff confidently, Miko Yotsuya cast the illumination spell Starlight.
A glowing magical light appeared at the tip of the staff, floating gently in the air.
Seeing the shining light, Yukino Yukinoshita widened her eyes in shock.
Even though she had learned yesterday that Luo Yu and Ranni were not ordinary people, witnessing someone her own age casting magic still felt incredible.
Since it was only a demonstration, Miko quickly dispersed the spell after successfully casting it.
She turned to Luo Yu proudly.
"See? I told you I've been practicing seriously!"
Luo Yu nodded approvingly.
"Not bad. Your casting speed has definitely improved."
"Put the staff away—it's time for lunch."
"Here, this is yours."
He opened the bag and handed the food to Yukino before giving both girls a can of juice.
When Miko Yotsuya saw that Yukino had already bought food from the cafeteria yet still received several bread rolls and rice balls from Luo Yu, she was stunned.
"Wow—Yukino Yukinoshita, you have such a big appetite!"
Faced with Miko's exclamation, Yukino's face turned red instantly.
"It's not that I eat a lot! My body is currently going through changes, so it naturally needs more food. It should return to normal in a few days."
"Oh, I see."
Miko nodded in understanding before opening her own lunch box and eating quietly.
As she ate, however, she occasionally glanced curiously at Yukino Yukinoshita.
Before Luo Yu arrived, she had only been there for about two minutes, and the two girls had only briefly introduced themselves.
Miko had heard the boys in her class talking about Yukino before.
Apparently, someone had even created a "Sobu High School Beauty Ranking," and Yukino Yukinoshita was ranked near the top.
Now that she was seeing her up close, Miko understood why.
Whether it was her appearance or her elegant demeanor, Yukino Yukinoshita truly stood out.
At the same time, Miko was also extremely curious about what Luo Yu had told her earlier—
That Yukino Yukinoshita had received the power of a Nekomata from the spirits of cats.
