Classroom of the Elite: OC the unpolished diamond

Volume 3: Bad decision

Chapter 8

Yato Pov:

Yato: Cough Cough...

Fuck... 

Yato: Cough... Cough...

My head hurt horribly. 

I must not pass out...

Using my remaining strength, I crawl up to a tree to support myself.

Yato: What a fool I am...what a following sequence of events shows how cursed I am...

I couldn't help but sneer because I had ended up underestimating everyone and everything...

Unable to open my eyes because of the blood dripping from my forehead, I just leaned my head against the tree.

A moment ago

Yato Pov:

Yato: Zzzzzz....

TICK

Yato: Mhm?

I suddenly woke up, sensing that someone was there.

A silhouette was startled to see me wake up and immediately turned around to run away.

I instinctively put my hands in my left pocket, where my card was now nowhere to be seen.

Yato: I wasn't much on my guard yet...someone really managed to steal it even though I wasn't on my guard? 

I was quite shocked that someone almost managed to steal it without me noticing. I got up and intended to run after this mysterious shadow who pulled off this feat against me. 

Being able to steal this, even though I wasn't on my guard or serious, was enough to pique my interest.

Yato: Hey...

I immediately got up and took a first step to chase the shadow, but I felt something pulling my leg, causing me to fall to the ground.

SLISH

Yato: Tsk...

I clicked my tongue as I felt a pain in my hand, the one I used to avoid my head hitting the ground.

Despite the darkness, I could see my hand because of the moonlight and saw a rock that had been struck in it.

SLISH

I took out the sharp rock my hand fell on from the injury to see blood dripping from it...

Yato: The fuck was that...

Rather than my current hand injury, what caught my attention was the reason I fell in the first case.

That's why I glanced behind to see a rope tied around my ankle to another tree further away.

Yato: What?

First, someone approached me enough to almost steal the card without me noticing...

Then this rope is tying me up?

Yato: Whatever...

Not having much time to waste, I removed the rope tie from around my ankle, which had been quite loose before I got up again.

Yato: I don't know who you are, but...

STEP

Probably serious for the first time since I enrolled here, I kicked the ground to sprint in the direction the shadow ran away.
