CLASSROOM OF THE ELITE X QUINTS: Complicated Feelings

Stop Eating and Listening to Music for God's Sake pt 3

Time froze in a certain part of the library. Two eyes locked, one is surprised and the other is in-rage.

“What do you think you're doing?” he asked.

Sudou couldn't answer his question right away because of being consumed by his rage earlier and is now still in the process of analyzing everything that happened.

This makes Ayanokouji angry, albeit slightly angry. He unconsciously adds strength on his grip slowly and slowly that causes the person's arm to tremble due to the pain.

Sudou was also similar.

He is still not in a state where he can react. But his instincts kick in, screaming to take off Ayanokouji's hand or else.

If not for a familiar voice that reached him, the worst possible scenario to Sudou might have happened.

“Ayanokouji-kun…”

An interruption has managed to break the tense and silent atmosphere, pulling their sanity back.

Ayanokouji's expression instantly returns into his usual apathetic one, as if he was not filled with killing intent earlier.

Sudou, feeling an increasing pain in his wrist, quickly swipes away Ayanokouji's arm and he lets go.

The brown haired boy turned around to the voice, and saw a black haired girl, together with familiar faces.

Students from another class and years also watched them with curious eyes—trying to process what really happened.

‘I mess up.’

Sighed.

Ayanokouji instantly pondered on ways to escape, planning to avoid answering questions, especially how he instantly arrived on the spot and stopped Sudou in just one arm.

The other person, specifically Sudou, opened and closed his hand, trying to feel himself. There is a tingling feeling mainly on his wrist, similar to being struck by hundreds of thin but sharp needles.

‘Just what the fuck happened?’

The feeling is different from receiving a solid force from his opponents, instead, it tells that the person has precise control of his strength, making him more dangerous than the former.

But Sudou is not aware of that. All he knows is that the Ayanokouji, who he is facing right now, is different from the usual Ayanokouji.

The tense atmosphere disappeared and everyone was released from the shock.

A beige haired girl rushed towards the scene, expression filled with extreme worries.

“Are you fine?!” she asked, strongly.

He only nodded his head as a response.

The rest also follow, together with an unfamiliar group of students that belong from the class of the pink haired girl.

Ayanokouji returned his gaze and checked Ichinose. He then approached her to make sure if she's fine and Sudou didn't block his way, instead, he simply let him pass through.

Facing each other, Ayanokouji worriedly asked,

“You’re not hurt anywhere, right?”

Ichinose, who was in a state of shock, finally realized the whole situation that was supposed to happen, her body involuntarily starts trembling.

White crystallized waters gathered in the edge of her left eye and are about to fall.

“That was dangerous, Ichinose.” He gently wipes it using his thumb, before it trickles into her smooth skin. “Please put yourself first, before the others.”
