Meeting The Gruesome(?) Monster For The First Time (2)

Hey, Shun here!

Children never lie, that's what adults often say. However, those are just wishful thinking.

To some extent, children should know how to lie in order for them to be a member of the society. On a small scale, lying could be thought of as a skill, after all.

✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽

(Shun's POV)

Currently, we're still inside the abandoned building. Despite already being beaten up by me, these guys still tried to put up a strong front as they thought that more of their friends will come and, in the words, "Put us in our place."

Yet, what honestly just happened is them being beaten black and blue again, with the octopus-like thing called Koro-sensei going on a rampage while also preaching them. So he's a teacher huh… That's why we needed to enroll at that Class 3-E.

Looking at the red haired guy named Karma who's currently sort of torturing the bosses of this gang, I'm assuming they're the students of this Class 3-E. Koro-sensei did say that they're his students after all.

"Nooow then~, what should I do with you guys, I wonder? Should I put a chilli paste with a Scoville Heat Unit of over a million up your ass? That sounds like a really good idea to me~…"

"Hiii—! P-Please not that!"

"Karma-kun, don't be too hard on them." Oh? This blue haired guy seems to be a good guy.

"Why don't you put some on their mouths and noses as well? That way, it wouldn't feel unbalanced." Oi, this guy's a little more vicious isn't he? With that kind of idea, you might as well bath them in spices.

What's more, he's saying it while wearing a gentle smile.

While holding my temples, I lightly shook my head at these guys. That was when I noticed someone looking at me in my peripheral vision.

"Hmm? Is something wrong Kanzaki-san? Is something still bothering you?" She was kinda down in the dumps when we conversed to each other earlier, before their classmates and teacher arrived.

Although I don't quite know what she's going through, she kinda reminded me of Miu somehow. Their only difference is that Miu isn't too restricted by our parents and me.

In her case though, they seem to be too strict on her. They may have differing reasons as to why they turned to it, but it looks like both of them became gaming enthusiasts because of their parents and their own circumstances.

"T-There's nothing, really."

Kayano-san was looking at us alternatingly for a few moments and, as if some idea hit her, her eyes suddenly widened as she hit the palms of her hands with a *pon*.

"Oooh… So that's it…"

"What is it, Kayano-san?" Okuda-san asked.

"Ah, well, it's the first time I'm seeing Kanzaki-san like this. It just hit me that it's probably because of what Shirakami-san told her earlier…"

"Shirakami-san? Told her?"

"Ah, Shirakami-san is that guy who helped us here. His full name is Shirakami Shun."

"Heee… So that's his name, huh… So? What about the thing that he told Kanzaki-san?"

Kanzaki-san has been a little absentminded until now but, when she heard what the two girls were talking about, she immediately went over and forcefully changed the topic.

"Didn't you promise that you won't tell it to anyone Kayano-san!?"

"Haha, I was just joking, joking you know?"

After looking at them interact with each other for some some time, I turned towards the yellow colored octopus named Koro-sensei.

"So you're Shirakami Shun-kun huh. Say, did you train your body?" It's a normal thing to ask given how they saw how many people are inside the warehouse. It's only reasonable that he'll arrive in such a conclusion.

"Yes, of course. Training is a part of my daily routine."

"Nyu-huhuhu. Is that so, is that so~? You might be a perfect addition…"

While he was talking, he suddenly disappeared from his place and reappeared beside me. Since I didn't expect it, I didn't manage to dodge the slithering hands that began to touch me all over the place.

"Addition to what? Oi, man, don't touch me with your tentacles! It's creeping me out!" God, now I feel violated.

In order to retaliate, I utilized [Body Flicker] to appear beside him then, summoning my Muramasa on my hands, I proceeded to try and cut off four of his tentacles off.

"Nyuhu… Eh?"

"Hmm? Oh, my sword didn't cut you. That's surprising."

"No no no no! I'm more surprised about your speed!"

His students seems to have noticed the commotion as they looked at us in bewilderment.

"""Koro-sensei/Shirakami-san!"""

"Wonderfully done. I didn't know that there's such a person in this world. Don't move everyone, or you might get implicated."

He really meant what he said, and it's not about me but about the three other people who's pointing their swords and daggers at his neck, eyes, and throat.

"I was wondering where Shun-kun have gone to for a long time but it looks like you're here. So? Who is this yellow octopus?"

Before I could even reply, Koro-sensei interjected while saying.

"No no no, I'm clearly such a handsome man in my prime!"

We all decided to ignore his words as I looked behind me, only to see Mutsuko-san wielding what seems to be some kind of assault rifle. She was pointing it directly at the back of Koro-sensei's head.

I wonder when she took out that gun? It even have a suppressor and a scope.

"Bullying [Admin-sensei] is unforgivable…"

"Are you some kind of ugly Kraken subspecies? A Toontopus!? Why is you slimy tentacles all over Shun's body, huh!?"

"You bully, nanodesu! Bullying is bad, nanodesuyo!? Pochi will eliminate bullies!"

Our whole group was already here before I even noticed. All of them are still wearing the kimonos that we rented back at the store on the way Gion. However, the difference was that, now, they're carrying dangerous weapons with them.

Good thing I felt Tsuka's presence in time and called her back. If not, it would've been a whole new level of trouble.

"Pochi, Tama, Rokuko, come here. It doesn't seem like he meant any harm by doing that gesture. You too Mutsuko-san. You can put down the gun now, please.."

Even though they're still vigilantly eyeing Koro-sensei, they still did what I asked them and returned to my side.

"What the—! That cute little girl is carrying such a huge sword!" Isogai-san commented.

Similarly, Nagisa-san and Karma-san also voiced their own opinions.

"They… They were so fast that I didn't even saw them approach Koro-sensei. Shirakami-kun too… They, they remind of when we first met Koro-sensei."

"Heee… They're still so young but they're already so good at wielding those weapons. Not only that but they're so stealthy, too. Just where did these guys come from? Interesting…"

Meanwhile, the three girls were just too shocked to even utter any words at all.

"I would appreciate it very much if you don't do that again Koro-sensei. As you can see, although I could ask them to behave to some extent, they have their own free will." Honestly, they're a bit too impulsive as well but I don't really mind that. I'm like that as well so I can't really call them out on that.

"Nyu-huhuhu. Wonderfully done. You all not only identified the weakspots in a split second but also managed to close in on me during that same time frame as well! Very wonderfully executed! Nyu-huhuhu."

I don't know what was so funny but Koro-sensei seems to be delighted by something.

"Not only that, but you also singled me out and made sure that no attacks would be directed at the other occupants of this room. Really wonderfully executed!"

"Nyuuu~? Tama, not a bully~." Is Tama trying to copy Koro-sensei's laugh? How cute. You deserve a head pat.

"Pochi only punish the bullies nanodesuyo? Bad yellow octopup-san is the bully, nanodesu!"

"Hmm… How interesting… A talking yellow colored octopus… Hey, are you really not an alien?"

The reason why Rokuko was not speaking was because she is currently in her own rabbit paradise. At first, she was rubbing her face against Tsuka and Fenny who's at the time still in my arms but, since I wanted to make sure that I could stop them in time if they act out, I decided to hand the two over to her.

Upon hearing the way that Pochi and Mutsuko-san called him, Koro-sensei's face immediately morphed into that of someone who was heavily hurt.

"The correct pronunciation is yellow octopus but, I'm really not a yellow octopus but a handsome man! Also, I'm born here on Earth and not an alien, mind you!"

"Hee… So you're not an alien huh." Mutsuko-san already know that he's from Earth but she seemingly still wanted to get a confirmation from him. Or is she just really hoping that he's an alien or something?

"I see(naruhoho), nanodesu. But, Pochi don't see anyone handsome, nanodesuyo? Pochi thinks you're the ugliest here, nanodesu!"

"Tama thinks so too~! Nyuuu~?"

As expected, the honest response of Pochi and Tama seems to have heavily wounded Koro-sensei's heart. It's like he was a shell of his former self as he grovelled on the ground, probably contemplating his life choices.

"It's not naruhoho but naruhodo… I'm really handsome, you know? Sensei is not ugly… I…"

"Did Pochi say something wrong, Master [Admin-sensei], desu?"

"Nyuuu~?"

Looking at the two then back the the still grovelling Koro-sensei, I just smiled at them before replying.

"No. He deserves that, I think?"

(Third Person's POV)

While Shun is busy talking to his friends, the six students of Koro-sensei, namely; Nagisa, Karma, Isogai, Kanzaki, Okuda, and Kayano are all gathered together, dumbfounded by what they are witnessing. This is the first time they've seen their teacher look so defeated like that.

"One of Koro-sensei's weakness, 'He worries too much about appearances'. That's probably why he's feeling so down. It's also two kids who said so, no less…" Nagisa commented.

"They say that kids don't know how to lie, after all. Those kids seem very honest and innocent in my opinion." Isogai added.

"Hehehe, now I have another thing added in my repertoire when I'm teasing sensei. It's all thanks to Shirakami and his friends."

Right after Karma said that, a pondering Kayano decided to voice out her thoughts.

"But still, I'm still surprised by the strength and speed of Shirakami-san and his friends."

"Un! Even Koro-sensei was not ready for their attacks! Really amazing!" Okuda added.

However, what Kanzaki said just about sums up what they're all thinking right now.

"Who are you really, Shirakami-san?"

Author's Remarks:

※ Alright. This chapter turned out better than I expected xD. I was doing some research and looking for some references when I remembered that akikan had that Assassination Classroom Arc on his own Dimensional Group Chat fanfiction. I was wondering how he managed to sort of gel together his character inside this dimension but, yeah… Let's just not talk about it. It was a good reference though.
