Chapter 81. [Delicious Red Bean Rice]

The problem is in a minor language called Tongan, which is a very minor language in Japan.
The boys let out a shudder when I answered it correctly.
[I didn’t expect this much.]
“If you understand this, why don’t you stop starting the match anymore? I’m still busy (watching VTubers, watching videos, checking Twitter, etc.). And as for breasts, I’m just not ready for my secondary sexual characteristics yet!”
The boy collapsed and nodded on his knees.
The surrounding gallery applauded at my triumph.
[Amazing! God Iroha, she didn’t even take her earphones until the end!!!]
[Iroha is cool, to begin with, but it’s refreshing to see her go this far!]
[Isn’t he amazing he still keeps attacking?]
[He’s just an idiot, isn’t he? No, he’s an idiot because he has good grades. Yeah.]
[She’s just worried about the size of her breasts.]
Shut up! That’s not what I meant!
I just said it’s a fact that I haven’t grown up yet!
Ah, sorry. Anyway.
I won the battle and went back to watching VTubers at my leisure.
What a waste of time!
I only have a limited amount of time to watch VTubers.
…… What?
Is it safe to use my ability like this and run amok?

Yes, it’s fine.
Because it’s pointless to do anything else.
Closing my eyes, covering my ears, and closing my mouth did not stop the outburst.
My brain was always burning, and it never rested.
It was pointless to bother it.
There was nothing I could do to stop the learning.
All I can do is wait until this cheat-like translation ability is satisfied with the learning process.
I can only hope that time will do the trick.
When in the world is that going to be?
No, I don’t think so. Is there such a thing as time to solve the problem?
Will such a thing be enough to pay for this ability that’s beyond human capacity?
We will never know until the time comes.
And then…

“—Ah, what?”
I looked down at my body, stunned.
The blood was flowing, making a small puddle there.
Finally, the time had come.
I lost consciousness and…

“—You’re menstruating.”
“Eeeeehhh! Period!?”
I yelled out on the bed in my room.
My mom, who was sitting by the bed, was looking at me with a dazed look in her eyes.
“So, what happened when you collapsed?”
“It was just anemia.”
“…… I’m not going to die, am I?”
“What are you talking about? You’re not going to die from menstruation.”
I heard that you fainted as soon as you saw the puddle of blood at your feet.”
Yes, I was anemic.
“No, no, no, but there was all that blood!”
“It’s period, you know.”
“And it’s so much!”
“It’s period.”
It’s hard to even wriggle. Not only does my whole body feel dull. But I also have nausea and headaches.
All this just because I’m on my period? That’s ridiculous.
“You may be surprised that it’s your first time, but that’s just the way it is. All women go through first menstruation, so you don’t have to be so scared.”
“…… Um, let’s see, are you sure it’s a period? Is it menstruation?”
“That’s what I’m saying. If it’s that bad, do you want to go to the hospital tomorrow and get it checked out? Well, congratulations. You are now a grown woman. Anyway, I’ll buy red bean rice for you today.”

“Yeah.”
If you whisper it, it’s a shadow.
I was supposed to joke that my secondary sexual characteristics had not yet arrived, but they have.

“Well, let’s take the pill, shall we?”
“Is the pill a contraceptive?”
My mom took me to the hospital.
I told her about my symptoms, and after examining me, the doctor suggested the “pill”.
“Yes. The pill isn’t just for birth control, you know. The low-dose pill we’re offering here can help control menstrual symptoms and regulate your cycle if you continue to take it.”
“Really?”
At first, she says, I may feel uncomfortable because of the change in hormonal balance.
But after a few days, it becomes a lot easier.
I appreciate that!
I was in the worst mood because my head was hurting, and my physical condition was terrible.
I can still manage to bear it for a few days or so. It’s a relief to see the end in sight.
“Thank you, Doctor.”
“No, it’s fine. It’s just that it’s medicine, so naturally, we have to understand the side effects and risks. I’m just checking, Iroha-chan. Do you have migraines?”
“What? Migraines?
Why does the pill have anything to do with migraines?

I replied, tilting my head.
“Well, I get migraines, or headaches, quite often.”
“I see. By the way, do you have any fever before the headache?
“Well, if I were to say… Yes?”
I wonder why it’s hard to lie in front of a doctor.
I answered as honestly as I could.
As the doctor pointed out, the headache was preceded by a fever.
However, “I’m a reincarnated person!”, “I have a fever and headache as a side effect of my cheat ability!” There was no way I could tell them that.
I would have my head examined differently.
So, I explained while deceptively explaining that part.
“I see, I understand.”
“Oh.”
The doctor put her hand on her chin as if thinking for a moment.
Then she raised her head and gave me a probing look.
“First of all, let’s talk about the pill. When you take it, it makes your blood thicker. Although the probability is not high, it clogs your blood vessels, and in severe cases, it can lead to a stroke.”
“Wow.”
“And if you have migraines with aura, this risk goes way up. That’s why we can’t offer low-dose pills to those people.”
[ ! ? ! ? ! ?]
The doctor described it as a “contraindication”.
