Speaking of eighth-grader syndrome...
Sogo Doma could say without exaggeration that he knew it inside out. As the Demon King of the eighth-grader world—and someone Rikka Takanashi, wielder of the Wicked Eye, wanted to defeat—how could he not understand the thought processes of those afflicted with eighth-grader syndrome?
That was precisely why Hachiman Hikigaya had no secrets before Sogo Doma!
Of course, only when it came to eighth-grader syndrome...
Whether it was being in the throes of eighth-grader syndrome or having graduated from it—Sogo Doma was thoroughly familiar with both!
That was why Sogo Doma remained so composed in the face of Hachiman Hikigaya's sophis... explanations. "Great Bodhisattva Hachiman!"
Hachiman Hikigaya: "..."
Ah... could he just die already?
Having someone seize upon his embarrassing past made him want to go mad! What was worse, he had never exposed it himself; the other party had dug it all up on his own, like that report to the Heavenly Realm...
Wait!
"I stopped writing that stuff ages ago..." He had indeed written it before, but the last time, he had been teased and mocked over it. How could he, Hachiman Hikigaya, possibly keep doing it?
Then again, he couldn't have been the only one writing reports to the Heavenly Realm, right? Though they were filled to the brim with complaints, as an angel—major fog—Hachiman Hikigaya didn't want humanity to suffer either!
Yep—definitely eighth-grader syndrome. He looked cured on the surface, but he actually wasn't...
Or rather:
"But you did write it before, didn't you?" Before Hachiman Hikigaya could finish defending himself, Sogo Doma said, "The Investigation Report for the Heavenly Realm. I wonder when you'll finally finish it."
At the banquet, Hachiman Hikigaya's eye twitched again. "..."
He had already finished it! No, he should say that he would never write that
