85:Proposition.

''Are you going to talk about it?'' Lucas asked.

Ichiro and Lucas were currently putting on their school uniforms after their sparring match.

''Talk about what?'' Ichiro asked, even though he knew what he meant.

*Bam*

Lucas closed the locker door with a slam.

He turned his head towards Ichiro, ''Your bullying incident, why did you never tell me about it?''

Ichiro sighed and closed the locker door, ''It wasn't any importance.''

Lucas's face turned angry, ''What do you mean not any importance?! The principal told me something that the news didn't. It wasn't just an ordinary bullying incident; it was much worse!''

Ichiro put on his blue-colored necktie, ''It is in the past.''

''If it was in the past, why did you go there to get your revenge?!''

Ichiro turned his head and looked Lucas straight in the eye, ''It is in the past because I got my revenge. I don't want to talk about them anymore.''

Lucas gritted his teeth, ''You should have told me; I could have helped you get your revenge.''

Ichiro shook his head and started walking towards the exit of the changing room, ''It was my revenge, not yours. Besides… I didn't really need help.''

Lucas scratched his head and started following behind Ichiro.

The Martial Arts Club building was still full of students and teachers.

Once Ichiro and Lucas left the changing room, they received applause.

Ichiro waved his hand and left the Martial Arts Club building.

Lucas managed to get through the crowd as well and started following him.

They entered the school building shortly afterward.

''I will go get my nose fixed,'' Lucas said and took his shoes from the shoe locker.

Ichiro nodded, ''See you.''

Lucas waved his hand and started running towards the infirmary.

Ichiro went towards his classroom to wait for the next to start.

The school day went by fast.

*Ring*

The last school bell rang, signaling the end of the school day.

Ichiro sighed and stood up to leave.

But then he was stopped by Mark and Jake.

''Ichiro.'' Mark said.

Ichiro raised an eyebrow, ''Yea?''

''Are you going to play Night's End today?'' Mark asked with hope; Jake was also curious.

But Ichiro shook his head, ''I don't have time today.''

''Ah, shame,'' Mark said sadly.

Ichiro started walking towards the exit of the classroom and said, ''We can play sometime next week-''

''Alright!'' Ichiro heard a loud shout behind him, but he had already exited the classroom.

He walked through the corridors under intense gazes of nearby students, but he managed to reach the shoe lockers unhindered.

Shortly afterward, he exited the school premises through the gate and started strolling in the streets.

[…What are you planning, Host?]
