"So the only way to get out of here is to kill someone...Interesting." Byakuya mumbled.

Hmm...Should I hangout with Byakuya for a while? Why not. Hopefully I don't get flustered.

~~~~Time Skip~~~~

I spent some time with Byakuya in silence...I think Byakuya and I grew a little closer today.

"...I have a question for you." Byakuya said.

"Huh? You do?"

"Something's been bothering me for a while now, and I can't take it anymore. So to answer my question...I need you to explain to me what exactly your "Ultimate School Idol" title means." Byakuya explained.

"Oh, well...I don't really get it myself but...I just perform live concerts with my band members, and since I was the most popular I was chosen." I explained.

"So you just got into Hope's Peak by singing and dancing. I see. Well, that answers my question." Byakuya said.

"What was the question...?" I asked.

"How a commoner like you, with absolutely no unique talents or abilities, could get into this school. Oh, I forgot to mention boring. How a boring, untalented, utterly generic commoner got in..." Byakuya said.

Boring? Generic?

"D-Did you really have to list all that off?" I asked.

"But it's the truth." Byakuya said.

"Maybe compared to you, the Ultimate Affluent Progeny, and all...But even I--" I said.

"You seem to think it's merely an issue of title. But make no mistake." Byakuya said. "My lineage, intelligence, figure, athletic ability--they are all ultimate. Which is to say, I am the ultimate Perfection. Feel free to begin calling me that, in fact." Byakuya said.

He's taking this to the extreme...

"You, who have nothing. I, who have everything. We are living proof that all people are *not* created equal. You have my pity, Y/N. Life can be very cruel indeed. And because I pity you so much, perhaps someday I'll allow you to hear my tale of glory. Consider it a blessing, a gift from me to you, to allow you to bask in ny glory." Byakuya continued. Having finished his mean-spirited lecture, Byakuya left me standing there in silence. I learned one thing about Byakuya today...Anytime I talk to him, I need to be prepared for extreme psychological trauma.

I did my best to keep my spirit from shattering like glass, and went back to my room.

*ding dong, bing bong*

"Mm, ahem, this is a school announcement. It is now 10 P.m. As such, it is officially nighttime. Soon the doors to the dining hall will be locked, and entry at that point is strictly prohibited. Okay, then...sweet dreams, everyone! Good night, sleep tight!" Monokuma said, announcing that it was nighttime.

Todays already coming to an end...But I swear...Tomorrow I'm going to find some kind of clue! I swear!

"Ahem, so...I'm sure that you've noticed the killing game has begun, but...there's still room for a little laughter. It seems our newest students, already so filled with despair, still have some hope of escape! Puhuhu...So when will it begin? When will their hope begin to die? Is it time yet? Is it time!? Heartpounding Excitement!"

*ding dong, bing bong*

"Good Morning, everyone! It is now 7 a.m. and nighttime is officially over! Time to rise and shine!"
