The ghostwriter

The final battle of Suisou Acadamy

This is a negative story, one that begins and ends with chaos.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a villain or even a hero. As long as you’re also human, you’ll be accepted by someone, somewhere. Even if you have no memories of being loved, for as long as you have memories of loving someone you can continue to "live". There was but onlu one exception to this rule however... and this outlier had a name, it's name was Kumagawa Misogi, and he was neither a hero nor a villain. He was as pure as a clear river. However, he possessed every negative human quality.

Negative…

He could never win against anyone, regardless of how weak they were, a born loser. He lost so much that his entire life was basically a joke. In the same way, this was why he's stronger than anyone else. Being bad with the ones he likes, corrupting with his loved ones, choosing destruction for his favourite ones. A man who could never go as people liked nor did anything ever go the way he liked.

While Kumagawa attacked everything around him, to incredible effect, there was somebody who tried to reach out to him. She tried to sympathize with him, to love him like any other human. However in the end, she used force to expel him from the school, he lost. He continued to remain unaccepted by humanity.

Outcast.

When he was chased away from that "peaceful" school life, and those friends, and those human beings, he transferred from school to school. He would only spend a short time there causing trouble, and like any other stereotypical villain, when he would inevitably have his plans foiled he would mumble『I could not win again.』and continue moving forward rubbing his head, and keeping his eyes fixed on the floor.

He would disappear without a trace each time. Inevitably he would find a new place, and inevitably again he would destroy that place too.

I called him the embodiment of all negativity, but truth be told he did have one positive quality. He never ran away. He never knew when to stop. He was always facing forward no matter what. Even when there was only loss, even if all he did was hurt others and make things worse, he would continue to move forward. He would continue to struggle.

Not even when he ripped the face off of someone he loved, not even when he soiled the heart, in every sense of the word of someone he loved. Not even when he was rejected by someone he loved.

Now that I think about it.

Now that I think hard about it.

Now that really, really think about it.

He never once turned away from that, did he? He never once stopped, did he?

Of course while he was rejected by all of humanity, and could easily be called an monster, a villain or even a demon lord. in the end, he was only human. As he continued to stumble forward it was inevitable that inflicting all that pain on himself and others he would become twisted. His efforts were almost like a magikarp that could only struggle, dealing large amounts of damge to itself while barely damaging the enemy.

Inevitability.

Twist, twist.

Kumagawa was born under such a star after all.

There was nothing else waiting for him, but a lonely life and a miserable death.

But, he laughed.
