Class S: The Warring period (3rd year saga)

Chapter 263: Lelouch vi Brittania vs Yamato Akuma

*Flashback*

Almost 3 years ago

Lelouch POV

"So, what do you want to do now?" I hear Suzaku ask. 

"What do you mean?' I asked back. 

"I mean you really left that emperor life of yours for a while now. Don't you...want to go to school again?" 

"School?" 

Funny.

It has been a while since I've gone to school. 

Though it is a shame that I left my old one due to...

Unfortunate circumstances but either way. 

I'm glad there is some peace for once in my life. 

I can enjoy being a normal teenager again. 

"I don't know Suzaku. Do you think it's necessary for me?" I inquired.

"I mean...of course. You don't want to be a NEET you know." 

"NEET?"

"Not in Employment, Education, or Training. NEET. Are you okay with that Lelouch?" 

"Well...I suppose it is a dumb idea to not do anything productive. It's just that..."

"What?" a tone of confusion from Suzaku says it all. 

I have been a drifter for some time and Suzaku has been nagging me to do something interesting rather than just enjoy my youth. 

Though he told me that I should be going to school since that is something most youths do. 

I guess me being part of different wars for so long made me forget what normal life is. 

I haven't known normalcy since I was a kid. 

What is normal, in a world where it will never be normal? 

To be honest, I was a fool to have control of everything.

I sacrificed too much just to get to this point.

Luckily, I didn't go any further.

If I did.

Who knows. 

I didn't want to predict the future.

"Unless the school is decent, I'm going to get bored." I finally spoke up. 

"Ohh I see."

"Because there's no point in me in going to school if it doesn't provide me the drive I need. I need a school where I can feel challenged again. People who are capable of being on my level."

"Well, I do think we can go into one of the elite schools in Japan. Though we do need to look it up. Would that be alright with you?" he asked.

"Whatever."

After some time. 

I finally did stumble upon a few notable high schools. 

But there is one that caught my eye. 

Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High. 

Looking at it. 

I was quite impressed not to mention intrigued about the school.

100% employment and college entry rate. 

A bold claim for a school such as this. 

However, if it is true.
