Ryuen, You've Got Some Nerve! (Continued)

This guy always has a great attitude towards learning, no matter the time.

Ryuen's methods were not limited to simply sending love letters to Ayanokoji. After school that day, Ryuen and his gang stormed into Class D' s classroom.

This didn't look like a friendly greeting at all, and Class D immediately fell into chaos because of these uninvited guests.

Chabashira-sensei only glanced at Ryuen and the others before leaving the classroom. After all, they hadn't done anything out of line, and there were security cameras in the classroom, so Chabashira-sensei wasn't worried about them causing trouble.

The originally cheerful atmosphere in Class D immediately became somewhat heavy.

After all, just look at the people behind Ryuen.

The trio of Ishizaki, Komiya, and Kondo, along with the incredibly strong Yamada Albert, plus Ryuen himself, are probably the most formidable fighting group among all the students in Class C.

"What's going on? Hey, this is Class D."

The first to react was Sudo, who immediately stood in front of Ryuen upon seeing Ryuen, with Horikita Suzune and Shuichi Kanda's seats behind him.

Hirata then immediately stepped forward.

"Ryuen, what brings you to our class?"

"What, is there some rule at this school that forbids visiting other classes? It's perfectly normal for classmates to visit their friends' classes, why are you all so nervous?"

Ryuen's disdainful tone immediately made many students in Class D frown.

You call this visiting other classes?

The ruthless and tyrannical Demon King, along with his four henchmen, who would dare to be friends with you?

Although what Ryuen said was ridiculous and didn't make sense at all, there was nothing wrong with his words themselves.

"That's usually true. But things are probably a little different here. At least you haven't visited Class D like this before."

Despite Ryuen's blatant provocation, Hirata remained unwilling to take a hard line, hoping instead to downplay the incident.

"That's precisely why I came, isn't it?" Ryuen took two steps forward, passed by Sudo, and came up to Shuichi Kanda.

Seeing this, Miyake immediately stepped over and blocked Ryuen's path.

"Don't be nervous, Miyake. I won't do anything under these cameras."

Who knows?

Despite Ryuen's assurances, Miyake refused to budge an inch.

"You didn't come here to see me, did you?" Shuichi Kanda smiled. "I wouldn't dare be your friend."

"No, I'm just here to express my gratitude. After all, if you hadn't leaked the answers to our class during the Paper Shuffle exam, several of us might have dropped out."

Ryuen's words immediately caused an uproar among the students in the class.

"Did Kanda provide the answer for Ryuen's class?"

"This can't be true, can it?"

"Could it be that Kanda is the traitor who betrayed Class D?"

The students in Class D immediately started whispering among themselves, as if they had heard something unbelievable.

Some people, however, hoped that Shuichi Kanda would say something, such as refuting Ryuen's claims.

But why would Shuichi Kanda do that? You want to sow discord between me and them? Go ahead, I have no objection.

"Then why don't you kowtow to me a few times to show your gratitude?"

"I'm afraid you can't handle it."

"If I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

Didn't I already tell you who planted the listening device? Why are you still coming to test me?

Don't you trust me, Shuichi Kanda?

I always kept my word! Just look at the titles of the first few chapters!

You rascal, are you enjoying toying with your prey?

You think Ayanokoji would be terrified after seeing your behavior? You're mistaken. Look, Ayanokoji is even packing his things to leave!

However, he seemed to quickly realize that leaving in this atmosphere would be somewhat out of place, so he immediately stopped what he was doing.

However, his concerns did not mean that everyone else did. At that moment Rokusuke Koenji, the most maverick member of Class D, stood up from his seat, picked up his backpack, and left the classroom.

Ryuen immediately gave his men a signal, and then the group disappeared from everyone's sight in a grand procession.

Holy crap?

Was my email not clear enough?

I wrote Ayanokoji, not Koenji, right?

Ryuen's outrageous behavior prompted Shuichi Kanda take out his phone and check his email correspondence with Ryuen.

Yes, I was talking about Ayanokoji, but why are you looking for Koenji?

Even Shuichi Kanda wouldn't dare mess with that guy, so why would Ryuen have the nerve to go and Koenji?

"Let's go, let's follow them and see."

As soon as Ryuen left the classroom, Shuichi Kanda urged Miyake to go and take a look.

After Shuichi Kanda left, Horikita hesitated for a moment, then followed him. After all, although Koenji hadn't contributed much during the Sports Festival, he had still made contributions to the class.

Hirata followed afterward, looking worried.

"Hirata, you shouldn't go. It's better not to make a big fuss about this. If all the students in the class come, things could get complicated. So you should stay here and calm your classmates down."

Upon seeing Hirata, Shuichi Kanda said this to Hirata.

After thinking for a moment, Hirata nodded.

"Okay, I understand. Then I'll leave Koenji in your care."

"That guy doesn't need my care, "Shuichi Kanda Hirata reassuringly.

However, as soon as Shuichi Kanda and his group left the classroom, Ryuen's gang and Koenji disappeared without a trace.

"That was fast, it was gone in the blink of an eye," Miyake remarked helplessly.

"Come with me, I know where they are."

"How do you know everything?" Miyake asked Shuichi Kanda probing question.

"If Ryuen were truly insane, he would have attacked Koenji right there in class. Since he didn't, it means he was wary of the classroom security cameras. So he would definitely choose a place without cameras to make his move."

"A place without cameras..."

There are no security cameras on the tree-lined avenue not far from the school.

The tree-lined avenue is close to the dormitory buildings and the school's Artificial Lake. This area is free of security cameras, and it was here that Chabashira-sensei initially asked them to meet.

This reminder made Miyake understand.

"Then let's hurry up and go, or something might happen if we're too late."

After leaving the school and walking a little further, Shuichi Kanda and Akito Miyake were the first to arrive at the tree-lined avenue on their way back to the dormitory.

Sure enough, there they saw Ryuen and Kouenji's group. Koenji was in front, followed by Ryuen and the others. Ibuki, who hadn't shown up before, also came to join them.

As if waiting for Shuichi Kanda others, Ryuen only sent Ishizaki and the others out after Horikita's group arrived.

The students from Class C immediately surrounded and blocked Koenji's path.

Despite being protected by so many people Kouenji showed no anxiety or unease whatsoever. His tone remained unchanged from his usual arrogant and haughty manner. He even took out a small comb from his pocket and began to groom his hair.

"I remember you were the troublemaker in Class C. What do you want from me?"

"I let you off the hook last time, but this time you won't get away so easily. Spend a little time with me, you weirdo."

Ryuen stood in front of Koenji, hands in his pockets, staring intently at him.

Last time?

Ryuen Koenji, you couldn't even handle Ayanokouji and me, yet you dare to mess with Ayanokoji? Who gave you that confidence?

Koenji's attitude was also quite interesting. He wasn't angry at Ryuen's rudeness; in fact, he was quite rude himself.

"But there's something that's bothering me. Are you referring to me as the so-called 'weirdo'?"

"There's no one else but you, right?"

This resonated with many, not only the students of Class C who wholeheartedly agreed, but even Miyake and Sudo, who had come along, nodded subconsciously.

However, Koenji doesn't seem to think so at all.

"What you said is truly puzzling, but I'm very tolerant, so I'll just pretend I didn't hear it. However, I have an appointment next, so could you please keep this brief?"

"Give me a postponement."

"Are you not planning to let me go back?"

"So what if it is?"

"I see. Then let's go somewhere else. How about this place?" For reasons unknown, Koenji pointed to a rest area by the roadside.

"It doesn't matter to me where I am."

"Then come with me."

"I strongly advise you not to even think about running away."

"Don't worry, you few alone aren't enough to force me into a strategic retreat. That wouldn't be a pretty thing to do," Koenji said, speaking in a way that no one could understand.

Shuichi Kanda and the others followed, since they had nothing better to do than watch the show. Shuichi Kanda was also curious to know whose blood pressure would rise after the conversation between Ryuen and Koenji.

"Ryuen, it's about time you stopped." Horikita seemed to foresee that things would escalate into a fight, so he advised Ryuen.

Don't be such a spoilsport, it'll be more interesting when they fight!

Speaking of which, besides Horikita, even Ayanokoji and Sudo came along.

"Heh, they just swaggered in like that." Then Ryuen looked over Shuichi Kanda's group one by one.

However, his real purpose was, of course, to follow Ayanokoji, who was next to Horikita.

"Kanda, with your weak physique, I advise you not to join in the fun. I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand the aftershocks of the battle."

"It's alright, I'll just stand back and watch." Shuichi Kanda unfazed by Ryuen's sarcasm. "Or are you planning to make a move against me, the current Vice President of the Student Council?"

Shuichi Kanda's words immediately made Ryuen's face stiffen.

Damn, how could I forget about that?

"But don't worry, this year's Student Council President is very tolerant of fighting, so if you and Koenji have any friction, it's highly likely there won't be any problems."

Shuichi Kanda's words immediately drew a glare from Horikita. She had originally intended to discourage Ryuen, but now Ryuen's words only emboldened him further.

Ryuen immediately burst into laughter. "Very good, I like the rules set by this year's Student Council President."

What?

Do you like this year's Student Council President?

Pass it on: Ryuen Kakeru likes Miyabi Nagumo!

As for why Shuichi Kanda told Ryuen this, it was obviously because he wanted to see some excitement!

A true entertainer knows how to have fun, so if there's no fun to be had, they create their own!

However, before Shuichi Kanda could make any further moves, a third party arrived at the scene.

"I'm still wondering what it's about. It's quite an interesting group of people."

Sakayanagi Arisu, the leader of Class B who hadn't been online for a long time, appeared with her subordinates at the scene of the standoff between Classes C and D.

Several people followed behind her, including the very familiar Kamuro, as well as Hayato Kito and Masayoshi Hashimoto, whom she had met before.

"Sakayanagi... the timing is almost perfect."

"It was just a coincidence that I came here."

You can fool Sudo with that, but considering the timing and the opponent's lineup, it doesn't seem like a perfect coincidence.

After all, apart from Kamuro, Hashimoto and Kito didn't follow Sakayanagi every day.

Ryuen obviously wouldn't believe Sakayanagi's nonsense.
