Have you ever wondered why people smile at strangers? It doesn't make any logical sense. For all you know, the person you're smiling at could be the world's most ruthless killer. Yet we do it instinctively, as if trust and kindness are commodities to be given freely. This contradiction lies at the heart of human nature-our willingness to mask fear and suspicion behind a simple, disarming gesture. But what happens when the mask slips? When curiosity overrides logic, and true intentions are revealed? In a world where trust is an illusion and everyone hides behind their own carefully constructed facade, one question lingers: Why do we smile?

If I may I'd like to pose an interesting question. What is the worst type of human? There's a large variety of objectively wrong types of humans, ranging from liars and thieves to manipulators and abusers. Despite all of the flaws in these people they all have one thing in common; They are self-centered. In most cases they refuse to show true empathy for another person. They only act to benefit themselves and if a situation cannot benefit them they most likely will not involve themselves in it. Many people may say the abuser is the worst, they hurt those closest to them and feel no remorse for it. Others may argue that a thief is the worst, they take from others and most of the times they steal for pleasure or for a want, not for a necessity. In my personal opinion, the worst type of person is one I didn't name but rather a mixture of two. A lying manipulator. 🥉- Ayanokouji 🥈- Horikita 🥇- Kiyopon 🥈- Kushida

Takuya Yagami had always been the epitome of excellence in the White Room. As the best student of the fifth generation, Takuya's brilliance was absolute. His intelligence was great, and his strength was formidable. Yet, despite his exceptional abilities, one thing he hated: he was never recognized as the best. This lack of recognition was due to one man-Ayanokouji Kiyotaka. Ayanokouji was the masterpiece of the White Room, a product of the fourth generation. It was the most brutal one, where no one but Ayanokouji survived. His superiority was absolute. If Takuya was strong, Ayanokouji was stronger. If Takuya was intelligent, Ayanokouji was a genius beyond comprehension. This relentless comparison filled Takuya with resentment and hate. One day, Ayanokouji escaped the White Room and enrolled at the Advanced Nurturing High School, an institution for elites. For an entire year, Ayanokouji hides his abilities, blending in as an ordinary student. However, his father, the creator of the White Room, could not accept his son's rebellion. To bring him back, he sent two of his students to retrieve him: Amasawa Ichika, who worshipped Ayanokouji as a god, and Takuya Yagami, who hated him. Takuya entered AHNS with a single-minded objective: to defeat Ayanokouji. However, the encounter did not go as planned. Despite his abilities, Takuya faced a humiliating defeat. Ayanokouji's superiority was on full display, and the gap between them was undeniable. This devastating loss shattered Takuya's mind. The realization of how infinitely superior Ayanokouji was, broke his spirit. Seizing the moment, Amasawa Ichika smiled. She saw an opportunity to turn Takuya's shattered mind into another ally. Amasawa indoctrinated Takuya into her belief, which idolized Ayanokouji as a god. She convinced Takuya that his true purpose was not to hate Ayanokouji but to worship him. In his broken state, Takuya embraced this new belief. He transformed from a rival into a loyal disciple.
