Chapter 88: Meeting Class E!

Meanwhile, Soma didn't seem to care much about the foreigner's outburst.

"Oh?"

His eyes lit up as he spotted Korosensei and Karasuma in the room.

Waving his hand, he laughed heartily and complained, "Octopus-sensei and Karasuma-san! Why didn't you tell us about the need to go on a hike?"

He approached them, showing how tired he was, which only made Korosensei snicker in delight as if enjoying his suffering.

"Ohoho, seems like you enjoyed your way here," Korosensei chuckled, his tentacles wiggling with amusement.

Karasuma shook his head and added, "We told Ito-kun about it. Didn't he inform you?"

"Ah? Really!?"

"Ohoho..."

Soma exclaimed in surprise making Korosensei chuckle again. Knowing all this made Soma then to squint his eyes at Tsuna, realizing it was a deliberate ploy by him.

The atmosphere between them seemed playful as their laughter filled the room, easing the tension from earlier.

Yet, Irina, who had just been called "expired" by Tsuna, tightly gripped her fists as her body trembled with anger, her expression darkening.

She was Irina Jelavic!

A professional hitwoman hired by the government to assassinate Korosensei and currently serving as the English teacher for Class E.

With her extensive experience and high success rate, she was a confident woman. Especially with men considering her model-like appearance.

And being insulted by a brat who barely looked like an adult was humiliating!

The stupid laughter in the background only made her anger peak as she realized the culprit, Tsuna was just boredly waiting for them to be done.

"...!"

Veins bulged out of her forehead as she mumbled, "You... Apologize to me! How dare you be so rude to me!"

"Hmm..."

Tsuna watched as Irina slowly approached him, his eyes flashing with a playful glint.

Noticing she seemed ready to throw hands, he shook his head, "Why? If a mother I'd like to fry rice for aged like fine wine, you'd probably age like milk..."

"You bastard!"

Irina couldn't take it anymore!

She launched herself toward Tsuna, shouting, "I'll spank your ass and make you scream for mercy, you little shit!"

"Irina, he's just a normal citi--"

Karasuma frowned, trying to stop the conflict from escalating.

However, a tentacle suddenly stopped him as Korosensei interrupted, "That's fine, Karasuma-sensei..."

"Fine? She's a professional hitwoman! She might be specialized in seduction, but she's still... huh?"

Karasuma was about to push through, slashing a specialized knife designed to kill Korosensei toward the tentacle, only to stop midway.

He widened his eyes in shock at what happened next.

Irina was charging at Tsuna before sharply swinging her arm toward his jaw, a strike that would definitely stun him if it hit.

Karasuma could tell she wasn't holding back.

However...

"I heard you're an assassin?"

Tsuna spoke casually as her hand lunged toward his face.

"Huh? What is he planning?"

His eyes didn't waver, which shook Irina a little bit.

Too bad, her surprise didn't end there.

Tsuna leaned back slightly, causing her attack to miss by a hair. She couldn't help but exclaim in her mind, "This brat... is he also a pro?"

"But that was disappointing..."

Tsuna's figure seemed to have vanished from her vision as a voice whispered softly in her ear.

"...!"

Irina's eyes widened in shock as she felt her body spin. Her hand was completely locked behind her by a strong grip.

She forgot all her anger, turning her head to look at Tsuna in disbelief at how easily he dismantled her attack.

"Now, what should I do with you?"

Tsuna chuckled, sending shivers down Irina's spine as she realized she wasn't up against a nobody at all.

Irina was breathing heavily, tried to maintain her composure, "You little... how did you--"

On the other side...

"...!?"

Soma couldn't see anything since they moved a bit too fast for his eyes, but to Korosensei and Karasuma, they could vividly see what had happened.

Karasuma's mouth opened and closed in shock as he muttered, "Is he really just a cook?"

However, Karasuma's surprise didn't end there.

Smack! Smack!

Loud smacking sounds echoed through the room, making him twitch his lips slightly and his cheeks flush.

"This guy..."

Karasuma shook his head, while Korosensei's expression turned pinkish as his tentacles squirmed slowly.

He giggled perversely, "Ohoho, as expected of Ito-kun..."

His giggles filled the room as everyone looked at Irina, who was covering her butt with a flushed expression, glaring at Tsuna as if she had just been violated—which, in a way, she had been.

"Y-you perverted brat...H-how dare you!?"

Irina's speech became slightly stuttered. She was completely in disbelief.

Tsuna shook his head and spoke nonchalantly, "At least you do have a good bakery. I guess you're not completely expired yet..."

"Huh!? Y-you perverted bastard!"

Irina's anger flared again, and she lunged at him once more!

Her anger was forgotten in the heat of the moment as they engaged in another brawl, with Tsuna clearly dominating.

Karasuma face-palmed and sighed, exasperated by the scene unfolding before him.

The room was filled with strange sounds of slaps and loud bickering between them, turning the atmosphere slightly pinkish and inappropriate.

Korosensei seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the spectacle, his expression staying pinkish with red hues on his cheeks.

Meanwhile, Karasuma and Soma couldn't help but look away.

"Kekeke..."

Korosensei giggled pervertedly at the brawl, but his eyes silently sharpened with interest.

Though he mentally made a note of the scene.

Despite being a hitman specialized in seduction, Irina was still a competent assassin, which was why she had been hired to kill him.

Tsuna casually dismantled her attack like it was nothing spoke volumes about his capability, reinforcing Korosensei's initial thoughts about him.

"Seems like you're truly one of us, Ito-kun," Korosensei silently noted.

Karasuma also realized Tsuna was not just a normal culinary student.

His movements were better than most professionals, prompting Karasuma to make a mental note to thoroughly re-check Tsuna's background later.

"...!"

A while later, Irina was sprawled on the ground, covering her body and looking completely wronged.

She pouted and glared venomously at Tsuna, who stood there with a stony expression as if he had done nothing wrong.

"Enough!"

Karasuma finally shouted, stepping between them before dragging Tsuna out of the room while speaking, "I'm sure you're done playing. Now, it's time to meet the students, Ito-kun."

"Ahem..."

Soma coughed lightly, trying to regain his composure a little before running after them, shouting, "Wait for me!"

"Ohoho, Irina-sensei. We'll be leaving first then..."

Korosensei said before slowly walking out of the room, leaving Irina on her own.

"Arghhh! You bastard!"

The second Korosensei closed the door, a loud frustrated shout was heard, along with some thrashing in the teacher's room. 

Irina seemed to be fuming still.

Korosensei chuckled at this before joining the three as they walked through the corridor, making their way to one of the rooms where the students' voices could be heard clearly.

Karasuma looked at Tsuna deeply and spoke while turning to the door, "As much as I want to ask you about how you learned all of those movements, we don't have much time since lunch is already over, so..."

They finally arrived at the culinary class as Karasuma opened the door, making the room instantly go quiet as all eyes turned toward him.

"Ah, Karasuma-sensei, are we truly getting a new teacher today?" one student asked.

However, as Tsuna and Soma walked in, the students blinked their eyes before focusing on Tsuna.

His kind smile accentuated his handsome face, making some girls blush.

"..."

Soma narrowed his eyes at Tsuna, who had completely changed his expression the moment they entered the room. He could guess what Tsuna was thinking as he twitched his lips slightly.

"Kyaa!"

"Seems like we've got another handsome teacher!"

"Yeaay!"

The male students had quite the opposite reaction.

Narrowing their eyes at Tsuna, they quietly muttered, "With that fake ass smile?"

"Ridiculous!"

"Tch, girls these days..."

On the other hand...

"Ah..."

Despite two contrasting responses, Tsuna looked at all the students of Class E, both female and male with a gentle smile. He silently mumbled to himself, "My cash cows. Let's take care of each other well..."
