A Classroom of Power Supremacy Backed by Black Technology Chapter 28

Damn it, this is humiliating! When will Shuichi Kanda ever get to stand up? At least he had to avoid sitting next to her, or it'd be even easier for her to pull something shady.

After obediently sitting down across from Kamuro, Shuichi looked around.

"Just you? Where's your keeper?"

"You really can't say anything decent." Kamuro's expression soured. "Isn't it right here?"

Right here?

Shuichi Kanda searched again, even bending down to check under the table, but still didn't see a single person.

Though from this angle, he could see some different scenery.

So where the hell is that...

Wait?

Could she mean me?

Looking up at Kamuro, who was reading a book with her head down, Shuichi Kanda felt his heart pound uncontrollably a few times.

Bad, super bad!

What's up with her?

How can she have such a cute side?

Are you actually Kushida in disguise?

After a long while, Shuichi finally calmed down, only to see Kamuro irritably poking at her workbook with a pencil, apparently stuck on some problem.

"Could you be a dummy?"

"What dummy? That sounds awful. I'm just not good at studying." Hearing Shuichi Kanda's words, Kamuro immediately retorted with displeasure.

Isn't that still a dummy? Is that your last shred of pride?

"Want me to teach you? Just call me..."

You wanna die?

Though Kamuro didn't say it out loud, Shuichi Kanda read her meaning, and his smug grin immediately flattened.

Chapter 48: Sunday Library, Part 2

Because of Shuichi Kanda's inappropriate remark, he paid the price by having to tutor Kamuro.

Then Kamuro naturally sat down right next to Shuichi Kanda.

Hey hey hey! Too close!

He thought he caught a nice scent, not like shampoo—could it be... no, it's probably his imagination.

"Smells good?"

"Of course." He blurted out without thinking. "Ow! Pain pain pain! Let go!"

Holy crap!

Wait, Kamuro, you're this fierce?

Less than two minutes after Kamuro sat next to Shuichi Kanda, he was clutching the soft flesh of his inner thigh and collapsing onto the desk.

"You crazy woman, you really think I won't release your video?"

"I'm still useful to you. You won't release it now."

MD, you've got a point. I can't argue with that.

But seeing her disdainful expression, Shuichi Kanda was so pissed!

Damn it, fine then!

Shuichi Kanda suddenly reached out a hand and grabbed Kamuro's inner thigh hard too.

So this is a high school girl's thigh? So soft, so smooth...

Anyway, the camera can't catch this. Maybe I'll just...

Meanwhile, Kamuro Masumi felt her whole body stiffen. She turned her head mechanically, her face full of disbelief.

Seeing this, Shuichi Kanda realized he'd gone too far and silently withdrew his wandering hand, closed his eyes, and put on a look of martyrdom, like he was ready for whatever punishment came.

But after waiting a while, the expected attack never landed.

"How do you solve this problem?"

"Huh? Oh, which one?"

As he read the problem Kamuro pointed to, Shuichi Kanda's mind raced—could Kamuro be an M? She was so rough, he thought she was an S, but unexpected, a pleasant surprise.

"Are you even looking at the problem? Why are you smiling so creepily?"

"Of course I'm looking. This problem's simple. Just draw this auxiliary line, and then..."

Ten minutes later, Kamuro looked at Shuichi Kanda with a strange expression.

"What's wrong? Can't you understand?"

"No, I think your teaching method is clear and easy to follow—better than the math teacher's." Kamuro looked up and sighed.

Of course it is. I'm a new-era high schooler who's been poisoned by exam-oriented education; there's no way your level of problem-solving here can beat mine.

I don't know how to solve this problem, but I can still get it right!

Can anyone else pull that off?

Huh? I feel like Kamuro just pried some important info out of me.

Just then, Horikita, Ayanokoji, and the class's Three Idiots also arrived at the library. It seemed the exams were close, making them tense, so this whole group headed toward the back of the library.

Hey, what are you doing? Don't come over here! Go over there!

But against expectations, not only did they not go elsewhere, they walked straight toward Shuichi Kanda.

Can't see me, can't see me!

Then Horikita Suzune deliberately paused as she passed by Shuichi Kanda.

"Hmph."

What the hell are you hmphing about?

But aren't you supposed to be tutoring Sudo? What's with those two over there?

After Horikita Suzune passed by, she immediately walked to the side, where there happened to be a large empty table.

And Yamauchi and Ike, seeing Shuichi Kanda and Kamuro Masumi sitting side by side looking pretty close, instantly grew jealous.

Why? Why does that guy get to have a private date with a beauty?

Damn it!

"Jealous?" As if reading their minds, Horikita Suzune spoke coldly. "This is the benefit of high academic ability."

After deliberately provoking Yamauchi and Ike, Horikita Suzune began her unique teaching session.

Originally, she hadn't considered including Ike and Yamauchi, but after hearing from Ayanokoji that they hadn't studied properly at Hirata's study group, she decided to drag these two over to study too.

It wasn't like she was the one calling them over, and Ayanokoji didn't care either—Kushida would handle it anyway.

Before long, the contact person for this peculiar study group, Kushida Kikyo, also arrived at the library. Naturally, she spotted Kamuro and Kanda sitting almost shoulder to shoulder.

"Huh? Are Kanda-kun and Kamuro-san on a date?"

Since Kamuro had asked Kushida for Kanda's contact info and room number, she'd been imagining Kamuro desperately chasing after Kanda.

Still, seeing them openly dating in the library was a bit surprising.

"I'm just teaching her how to study."

"I see, got it. I won't tell anyone."

Hey, what's with that look? I'm telling the truth, the truth!

Soon after Kushida Kikyo ran over to Horikita's side, an argument broke out over there, making it impossible for Shuichi Kanda to focus on passing study tips to Kamuro.

The first to kick up a fuss was Sudo, and his target was naturally Horikita.

Expected, nothing surprising.

Talking to that woman, even Shuichi Kanda couldn't help but want to snap at her, let alone the more hot-tempered Sudo.

Sudo-kun, I feel you!

"You damn woman, I've been putting up with you for a while now! Our future has nothing to do with you, right?"

"It really has nothing to do with me. No matter how much you suffer in the future, it won't affect me. I'll just feel sorry for you, because you've been running away from your life so far, and that's why you're such failures."

"You sure talk big. In the end, studying is completely useless for the future."

"Studying is useless for the future? That's laughable. You give up at the first sign of difficulty, and someone like you wants to become a professional basketball player? If a slacker like you could become a basketball player, I'd really mourn for Japanese basketball."

Damn it. The moment Horikita said that, Shuichi Kanda knew things were about to go south.

Sure enough, Sudo lunged over almost instantly and grabbed Horikita by the collar.

But fortunately, someone else understood the impact of those words.

"Sudo-kun!"

Kushida stood up the moment Sudo did and grabbed his arm.

Even with her collar grabbed, Horikita showed no fear. She just stared at Sudo with cold eyes and kept taunting him.

Wow, you've got guts.

Just as Kanda was enjoying the show, Kamuro lightly kicked his shin with her foot.

"Is it really that entertaining?"

"Of course it is. I want to see if Sudo will actually throw a punch. If he does, I'll respect him as a real man."

"You're just stirring the pot."

"Who says I'm not?"

But things didn't unfold the way Shuichi Kanda had expected either, because an unexpected factor appeared.

"The library is a place for people to read and study, not a place for trash like you from Class D to come. You idiots have never studied in your lives anyway, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been docked down to zero points in just one month."

A male student with short green hair stood up and fired a blanket insult directly at the noisy Sudo and his group.

"Who's that? Do you know him?"

"Yahiko Totsuka, Katsuragi's lackey."

Katsuragi—the other leader of Class A besides Sakayanagi. The two of them had forces that could be said to be evenly matched.

"I see. Got it. Sakayanagi sent you to tail them in the library, didn't she? In that case, I'll give Sakayanagi a little gift."

As his words fell, Shuichi Kanda casually grabbed the pencil case Kamuro had placed on the table and hurled it hard at Yahiko Totsuka.

Bang!

Chapter 49: Taste the Darkness of Society!

The moment Shuichi Kanda's words fell, before Kamuro could even process what was happening, Kanda snatched the pencil case from the table and smashed it toward the head of that guy named Yahiko Totsuka.

This sudden outburst startled Kamuro badly.

But calling it a "smash" was more like Kanda grabbed the pencil case with too much force, and it slipped out of his grip, flying off on its own.

After leaving Kanda's hand, the pencil case traced a graceful parabola through the air, as if it were about to land right on Totsuka's head.

Bang!

Unfortunately, that bald guy named Katsuragi reached out and blocked the pencil case Kanda had thrown, protecting Totsuka.

The pencil case collided with Katsuragi's burly arm, burst open, and its contents scattered all over the floor.
