CH 31

Class Z is the most popular subject at the school.

The reason why this class was created has not been made public, but it is known that the prince has a plan for all the weirdos in it.

Many of the students are curious about this class, but they are not hostile.

But the students in Class A are an exception. A lot of them don't have good thoughts about the Class Z, and it's all because of the attention they are getting. Class A students are the ones with the best grades, and they hate being put on the back burner.

Lucius is on his way to address Class A with his friends.

"Hey you, get out of the way!"

Barn, who is in the lead, rushes towards Class A while pushing all the students in the hallway out of his way.

It's rare to see Class Z students in the main building, so naturally the students' attention is focused on Lucius and his friends.

"This's Class A. What do we do now, Lucius?"

"...Let yourself go."

"Ha! Sounds good to me!"

Barn catches on to Lucius' words instantly, and kicks the door open with all his might.

BAM

The students in Class A are startled by the suddenness of the door loudly bursting open.

Lucius and the three idiots appear in front of them.

Barn looks around the classroom. At first glance, it is clear that all the students are in the classroom. And it is likely that the criminal is among them.

"Ora ora ora ora, I came here 'cause of the fight you started! I know exactly what you did, so be a man and show your face!"

Barn yells at the top of his lungs, but the culprit still doesn't show up. On the contrary, the students laugh at Lucius and his friends.

"...It looks like everyone is trying to cover it up."

Not everyone in the class is to blame for what happened. But surely many of them were amused to see Lucius and his friends getting worked up.

"Well well, if it isn't Class Z. What do you think you're doing?"

The person who spoke was a student named Haulo, the representative of Class A. He was a noble by birth, and as expected, he was also someone very proud.

"Hello Haulo-San, to tell you the truth, our classroom was recently vandalized by someone. I'm trying to find out who did it."

"I'm sorry to hear that. However, that doesn't mean you should suspect us, right?"

Haulo replied to Lucius with a smile.

"It could have been an inside job, you know? There aren't any students here who would bother going to such a dirty or quaint school building to pull pranks. Kuku, Class Z is full of students of very low social status as you can surely see, so shouldn't you be suspicious of them?"

When Haulo says those words while holding back his laughter, the students around him start laughing as well.

The moment the three idiots witnessed the situation, they restrained their urge to punch him while Barn muttered "These people...!" But before that could happen, Lucius restrained them with his hand.

"Lucius...! We know it was them! Don't stop me!"

"If you hit them now, you'll be giving them a reason to do whatever they want to us later... They might even expel you."

"So you want us to just sit back and watch while they just do whatever they want!?"

Lucius smiles at Barn's words and replies;

"How can you think that? I'll handle this."

Lucius steps in front of Haulo and pulls out a lock of hair from his pocket.

"This lock of hair was on the floor of my classroom."

Haulo who takes a bit of a puzzled attitude at the sudden situation and replies; "So what?" with a grimace on his face.

"There were traces of 'salt' on this hair, and its composition matched that of sea salt. Class A went to the beach in the morning, right?"
