My New Life

Chapter 10: Info Dump

Kiryuin POV:

Walking into class the next day was rather eventful.

People seemed to notice rather quickly that I had a bruise on the side of my face, but no one dared to say a word to me.

That's just the kind of impact I have on people, most avoided me simply because of who I was.

I was a strong, smart woman, I just wasn't interested in anybody that had nothing to hide.

What's more, even Horikita and Nagumo are starting to bore me now.

But I have a sudden new interest.

Whether it was luck or fate that day that I happened to be his victim, in the beginning I had laughed at how unlucky he was to have chosen me.

But I had suddenly grown interested in him.

He'd thought everything out perfectly, the fact that I was his victim made things a bit harder, but even that could be overlooked considering his vast strength.

Even if the tables were turned, and I had the jump on him, and was prepared beforehand for a fight.

I'm not quite sure if I would beat him.

What's more, he was a kouhai.

The whole reason the whole situation had played out was because of the S system, because he wanted to learn more about it.

Yes, he was exceptionally smart.

I winced as I sat in my chair.

That liver strike was agonizing the previous day, the moment I got back to my dorm I hit the bed hard.

Luckily, some rest will do just the trick.

Someone seems to have noticed my wince, and walked over to me.

"Um, Kiryuin-chan? Are you okay?" She asked.

"Do I look okay to you?" I asked back, a big smile on my face.

"I got my ass handed to me by a kouhai."

"We could file a report!"

I glanced to my left, this classmate seemed to really want to help me, but there was no point.

"No point, he sustained injuries as well, and I don't even know his identity. What's more, the whole situation was off camera."

"Ah." She backed off after that, retreating weakly back to her desk.

I smiled happily up to the ceiling.

Whoever you are, you're an interesting one. I hope I can get to know you better, Kitsune-kun.

Shizukana POV:

One could hear a pin drop in the class as Hirata finished his explanation.

"In other words, it's mandatory for us to begin to take class seriously, or there will be a grand total of 0 private points earned at the start of next month."

"Woah, Woah Woah Woah. What are you saying?"

Yamauchi stood up, perplexed.

"So you're saying we won't earn any private points at all? How have you only found this now!?"

Hirata lowered his head in shame, playing the act well.

"It's because I was fooled, just as everyone here was. As I said before, finding the camera was just a coincidence, I've been working on this for the past week."
