Classroom of the Elite: The Strength of Kageya Shinjitsu

Chapter 40 Please Go Out With Me, Minotaur Warrior

"..."

Kageya Shinjitsu remained expressionless.

Listening to these words, he was still a bit speechless.

Should he say yes, or should he say no?

And what the hell was this nickname, Minotaur Warrior?

Why did it sound so terrible?

But thinking about it carefully, he did seem to have worn a minotaur mask in the past.

"I've heard your name for a long time. At first, I thought it was just a coincidence, but I really didn't expect it."

"That the Minotaur Warrior would actually..."

Karuizawa Kei said cautiously.

She was still a little afraid that Kageya Shinjitsu might get angry.

"Stop, stop."

"Don't say Minotaur Warrior anymore."

Kageya Shinjitsu retorted.

"What kind of ridiculous name is that?"

Since the other party knew so much, it was obvious she had known about his past for a long time.

There was nothing left to hide.

It had all been exposed before anyway.

"You don't like that name?"

"It seems there are also names like Chiba Demon King, Shadow Devil, Jet-Black Judge, Shadow Hunter, and Cane Knight."

Karuizawa Kei said excitedly, reciting the names one by one.

She even looked a bit thrilled.

She simply ignored the nicknames that carried malicious intent.

"..."

"Where did you get so many names?"

I don't even know them myself.

Kageya Shinjitsu had heard of names like Demon King or Devil, but those messy ones like Minotaur Warrior?

He would never admit to them.

"The school forum, and there are messages on many chat apps, especially among middle school students where it's very famous."

"We live closer to Chiba, so many people talk about it, and there are even fan clubs."

Karuizawa Kei explained.

She was one step away from saying she was a member of the fan club herself.

Because of the Chiba Demon King, many bullies in the nearby middle schools would restrain themselves.

They were terrified of being jumped in an alleyway at any moment.

"..."

Kageya Shinjitsu was unaware of this news.

Fan clubs and the like.

"Oh, so, what do you want with me?"

"Since you know so many things, then you must know that he was caught a while ago. There aren't any messy people in this school."

"There is only a student named Kageya Shinjitsu."

Kageya Shinjitsu spoke directly.

"Ah, that..."

"What I mean is, if you don't mind..."

"Please go out with me~~"

Bowing her head, her long golden ponytail swung as she confessed directly.

"Please go out with me?"

This sentence echoed in Kageya Shinjitsu's ears for a moment.

He never expected that he would have a day where someone would confess to him.

And she was a beautiful girl, no less, all because of the ridiculous things he had done in the past.

He quickly snapped back to reality; love is a grave, indeed.

Besides, there were other problems to deal with right now.

He pulled out his phone, tapped it, and the flashlight beam cut through the darkness.

"Ugh..."

Karuizawa Kei was puzzled; what was he doing at a time like this?

"The student peeking over there, is there something you need?"

He swung the phone, shining the light directly toward the outside of the small courtyard.

Upon seeing the people there, he also quickly activated the recording function.

"Wow, little underclassman, what a coincidence."

"I didn't expect to run into you here, and during such an interesting scene, too."

Several figures emerged, and Karuizawa Kei jumped in fright, hiding behind Kageya Shinjitsu.

"Oh, so it's you guys."

"The upperclassmen from the second year."

As they drew slightly closer, Kageya Shinjitsu clearly made out who they were.

The guys who had cornered him back in his second year.

The kind of losers whose names he hadn't even bothered to remember.

"Good underclassman."

"How are you such a troublemaker? You're much more troublesome than we imagined."

"It's not just us you've provoked; that trash in Class D is also very unhappy with you."

"You've even offended students from Class A."

The three of them blocked the small courtyard, speaking with wicked grins on their faces.

"I didn't expect such a cute little underclasswoman to be here. You must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to confess to a guy like this."

"Since you're here too, we'll make sure to treat you well."

"Hehehe~~"

The way they looked made cold sweat stream down Karuizawa Kei's back; this seemed like an even greater crisis than the one she had faced in middle school.

Her hands gripped Kageya Shinjitsu involuntarily, as if that were the only way to feel safe.

"Don't give me that 'didn't expect to see me' act. You came here specifically to ambush me, didn't you?"

"And as for me offending people, our previous conflict was just verbal, and you were the ones who came looking for trouble."

"If you have an issue, come at me. Karuizawa is innocent."

He placed his phone into Karuizawa's hand, looking as if he were ready to fight to the death.

She happened to notice the large "Recording" text displayed on the screen.

"Hehehe, you've got guts. I'll give you that."

"Then come here. As long as you kneel and crawl over to apologize properly, I'll let you two go."

"Otherwise, it won't just be you—your little sweetheart is going to suffer, too."

Speaking softly only further stimulated the sadistic and vengeful desires of the three second-year seniors.

Hearing their words, Kageya Shinjitsu felt no fear; in fact, an excited smile appeared on his face.

He began his self-directed and self-acted performance.

Chapter 41: One "Don't hurt them" per breath, one punch per stinking senior

"You guys..."

"Don't come any closer!"

"I will never kneel. If you have the guts, then come and get me, but leave Karuizawa out of this."

"Karuizawa, run!"

"What are you doing!!!"

"I'll fight you to the end~~" Kageya Shinjitsu declared with a heroic air.

His hand slid toward Karuizawa's waist, and while she was still terrified and confused, he gave her a sharp pinch.

"Ahhhhh..."

Startled by the pinch, Karuizawa Kei jumped.

At first, she only let out a soft cry.

But the next moment, an even longer scream rang out.

Kageya Shinjitsu's foot had already landed squarely on the nearest upperclassman, sending one of the trio who had been blocking the small courtyard flying.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

At first, they hadn't fully processed what was happening, but seeing Kageya Shinjitsu charge in to trade blows, his fist already landing on an upperclassman's face and drawing blood from his nose, they snapped to.

Naturally, the upperclassmen weren't about to tolerate this.

They had come looking for trouble in the first place, so they moved in together.

The upperclassman who had been kicked away also forced himself to stand up through the pain.

"No, please, stop fighting."

Looking at the recording function on her phone, Karuizawa Kei seemed to realize something.

She muttered, ensuring the audio could pick it up.

"Stop fighting."

"I'm calling for help."

"Help me, ahhh~~"

A female voice spread throughout the area, startling many couples hiding in the shadows.

But the people on the scene no longer cared about that.

Blow after blow landed on his body, and even as his wounds tore open, he didn't pay them any mind, continuing to rain strikes down on the upperclassmen in front of him.

Especially the guy he had punched first; after a few of Kageya Shinjitsu's blows, the fellow was already so bruised and swollen that it was hard to tell where he was intact, and he had already lost consciousness.

"Hah."

With a long, satisfying exhale, he lunged toward the other two, then shoved them aside.
