Chapter 25: Saki Tenjouin

(3rd pov)

The day of the festival was slowly approaching, and all of the different classes from three different years were preparing their own attractions, and the Class 1-A wasn't any different.

They were divided into teams that would have each task to complete. Ryoto was in a group with Rito and Haruna. While he didn't want to cockblock his little brother, it just happened as if it was a will of the world...

They worked together for a while until they noticed that they didn't have any more vinyl tape.

Ryoto: "I'll go buy some."

Ryoto wanted to give Rito some chance. Being the third wheel, he felt a little bad, but the rest is on Rito to carry out. If he succeeds, the only one he could be thankful to would be himself, and the same thing could be said if he fails or does nothing.

Ryoto met a senpai he expected outside the classroom as he witnessed one of her followers spying on him. He smiled at every photo just to mess with her, but if anyone asked, he would say that it was an act of politeness because when someone takes a photo of you, you should smile to look good on the picture.

Saki Tenjouin was patiently waiting for Ryoto to be alone, and when she saw it, she took the chance.

Saki: "Hey, you! I'm Saki Tenjouin from 2-B!! I'll give you permission to date me!!"

She is exceptionally narcissistic Ryoto thought.

Ryoto: "Hello there, senpai. You say you want to date me. Can you tell me why?"

Saki: "Well... I believe that you are the one who should be perfect to be my boyfriend." Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

Ryoto: "I see. Why?"

Saki: "Because... don't question the queen of Sainan High. If she deems you worthy, then you must be worthy!

(Ryoto's pov)

I see, so she didn't research me enough to answer basic questions. After she got the report about me, I bet she rushed here after she got the idea of 'stealing' me away from Lala to beat her. The question is if I should teach her to not mess with a boy during puberty or just let her go with a bit of warning.

Karen: "Teach her the lesson!"

Karen literally shouted inside my head.

I just pulled Aizen on someone, and it feels incredible. It should be illegal how badass it is, but I probably should focus on the girl before me. Who am I kidding? Even without concentrating, I would dodge every incoming attack from her, and even if she somehow would land a hit on me, it wouldn't hurt too much.

Ryoto: "Well, hello there, Rin-senpai. It's not nice to attack your kouhai in the hallways. It's not nice to attack anyone anywhere, really, but you get the point."

I smiled, but it only made her more agitated.

Rin: "What's not 'nice' is YOU assaulting Saki-sama!!!"

Ryoto: "Well, since Saki-senpai wanted to seduce me because she wanted to show that she is better than Lala, I thought that it would be a good idea to teach her the lesson to not play with fire if you don't want to be burned."

Rin: "Even so, it's unacceptable for you to do such a thing!"

Ryoto: "So it's okay for you to plan against my girlfriend, but if I plan something against your group, then it's magically illegal. Hypocrisy at its finest."

Karen: "Don't converse with her. Just execute order 66!"

Karen is out for blood, and an angry bodyguard stands before me, wanting to hurt me terribly... Wait, I've got an idea. I pulled off Aizen, then this time I'll...

Ryoto: "You know what? I'll let you hit me with your sword, and I won't even block. Hit wherever you like, be it chest, neck, or anything else, I won't budge."

I opened my arms, welcoming attack, and waited. Rin did not know what she should do as it was the first time she had been in a situation like that.

Ryoto: "Can you hurry? I've got a vinyl tape to buy."

My comment seemed to anger her as a vein popped out on her forehead, and she swung her sword at my neck. I used Haki to harden the area where she struck, not allowing any damage to reach me. All of the three girls were shocked as I, as promised, didn't even flinch.

Ryoto: "If that's all, then I'll be going."

I left them in the hallways, and they didn't even follow me as the whole situation was too hard to process. I also just noticed that I leave people dumbfounded quite often.
