Classroom of the Elite Final Year

Volume 2 Prologue

The Monologue of Yokoyama Kana:

I was a delinquent. Infamous for my deeds. 

Everybody was scared of me. Of course they would be when I would come to school every day with blood on my face and my uniform. And yeah, the blood wasn't mine. Who in the whole area could touch much less harm me?

That was the sort of person I, Yokoyama Kana, was. 

My classmates kept their distance from me so did my teachers and other school staff. My parents had given up on me long ago. I barely remember talking with anybody. At some point, I had even thought that I had already forgotten how to communicate with others.  I lived alone in a rundown apartment. I earned money by taking contracts to beat up other people. That was the only way to meet my needs. I lived aimlessly with no desire of my own.

That was the sort of life I, Yokoyama Kana, was living.

"Hello, there, beautiful lady!" I heard a voice. I thought that it was for me but I denied that possibility. After all, who would dare to talk to me?

"Oh my? Have you perhaps been rendered speechless by how handsome I am, Yokoyama Kana?" I don't think I heard him wrong. He definitely just called my name. I slowly turned my head towards the voice where a boy my age with beautiful features and jet black hair stood with a smile on his face.

He slowly approached me and brushed my hair aside. His eyes widened when he saw the blood on my face. I was about to push him away when he touched the blood on my face, "It embellishes your beauty. Makes you seem like a female knight protecting her prince. I quite like it. So, what do you say? Want to be the knight that protects me?"

That was the day when my life changed.

Meeting him was what had brought me this far. If not, I was sure that I would be now lying around in some dark alleyway either beating someone or getting beaten myself. I would still be living that same aimless life. 

He was the one that had provided me with a purpose to live. I had made a promise to myself that day. That, no matter what, I will protect him. I will be his shield and not let any harm get past me.

I will crush anyone who gets in his way.

And that's why, if need be, I will crush him. I will expel him.

Note:

Yes, that's right. I am not dead!

It's been more than a month I guess. This prologue was uploaded just to let you know that I have not abandoned this series(never will). I have a general idea of what the special exam will be. I will have to flesh out the details and add some spice here and there.

Thank you for waiting and I assure you that it won't be long before volume 2 begins!
