*Thud!*
Dio crashed into the wall.
It was more of a gut punch with a cannonball than a Rasengan. Luna had added wind magic, so it hurt more than a normal punch.
He had established dominance. The strongest in Class A had been defeated in one hit.
It was like the school bully getting knocked out by a transfer student.
“This is also hard work.”
He had to control his strength against weaklings.
It was like Saitama. He couldn’t use his full power.
They’d explode.
He went back to the podium. The classroom was silent.
“You’re all trash!”
They were too shocked to react.
Luna and Yui came up to him.
“…Are you sure about that?”
“That’s a bit harsh…”
“No, they’re trash.”
They were arrogant because they were in Class A. And people kept praising them. They were frogs in a well. Kings in a small pond.
“How strong can academy students be?”
If Class A students were as strong as A-rank adventurers, they wouldn’t need a protagonist.
They’d just gang up on the Demon God.
The academy was just a stage for the protagonist. The students weren’t *that* strong.
“Luna, you know why there’s no S-Class?”
“…No.”
“Because they’re trash.”
There were S-rank adventurers, but no S-Class in the academy.
There weren’t any students strong enough.
“There are tons of people stronger than them outside.”
Like Argo or Hazel.
And they were just first years. They’d get stronger eventually.
But not the extras.
Only the protagonist, heroines, and maybe some side characters could become extraordinarily strong.
Meaning…
Only Riche, Tia, Stella, Dio, and maybe Rebecca, who was staring at him, were strong.
The rest were trash.
“See? They don’t even deny it.”
“…They probably can’t.”
“Of course they can’t.”
“Hey, you two. Come here.”
He pointed at two male students in the front row.
“M-me?”
“Yes…?”
“Hurry up! Do you want to die?”
They rushed over.
He had to yell for them to listen. Teachers in his past life were amazing.
“You’re late, so get hit.”
*Thwack!* *Thwack!*
He punched them.
“Take that trash to the infirmary.”
“Y-yes!”
They dragged Dio away.
“Alright. The rest of you, to the training grounds.”
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
They were now at the training grounds.
He had established dominance, so they obeyed.
He didn’t have anything to teach them theoretically.
“Self-study.”
“”……?””
He hadn’t said he’d teach them anything.
They didn’t seem pleased. Weren’t students supposed to be happy about skipping class?
“Or… magic tricks?”
““No!!””
Some students shouted.
He was going to teach them how to cut off their thumbs.
“Fine, then I’ll sleep.”
He wasn’t at fault. They didn’t want to learn.
Luna and Yui went over to the students, seeming to feel guilty about not teaching.
He overheard them. They were talking about beastkin senses, how hard it was to work with him.
He’d use those guys as assistants later.
Yui was surrounded by girls.
Candy in her mouth, snacks in her hands.
A mascot.
Was this even a class?
But the first step was getting to know each other. There were teachers like that in his past life. The ones who were popular.
Weren’t adventurers and academy students on bad terms? Yes and no. It was the nobles who looked down on them. And they looked down on Luke, not Luna or Yui.
But that had changed after he beat up Dio.
He was lying on a bench, covered in a blanket, slacking off.
Don’t you feel bad? Someone might ask.
No.
He wouldn’t be here if he did.
“This is the life.”
Earning money was easy.
He felt a shadow. He saw legs in a skirt and stockings.
“What?”
“It’s me.”
Who was ‘me’?
And who spoke informally to a professor?
He looked up. The view was great.
“Hi.”
“I’m not Luke.”
“…You can’t fool me.”
She was quiet today.
“Don’t you have any friends?”
“No.”
She was that kind of character.
“Okay. Bye.”
He closed his eyes. Class would be over soon.
She sat on the bench beside him.
“Let’s talk.”
He didn’t want to. Why was she bothering him?
Should he just kill her?
All heroines must die.
It was a good slogan.
“If I tell you, will you leave?”
“Tell me what? I’ve already told you.”
He had told her. She wouldn’t be able to win. Why was she here?
These webnovel heroines were strange.
“Ask Arthur. He knows.”
“…I don’t like him.”
Riche’s expression changed.
Why?
She seemed to dislike Arthur, even before. Now it was much worse.
What did he do?
“Riche, there you are.”
A savior appeared.
“Tia?”
“What are you doing…?”
Tia and Stella came over. They were looking for Riche. They frowned at the sight of him.
“What are you looking at?”
“…Let’s go, Riche. We’ll get stupid.”
“Yeah, we might get stupid.”
He wanted them to take her away. He was sleepy.
“Hmph! I was just leaving!”
“W-wait…!”
Riche was dragged away.
Nice.
He could finally sleep.
