"All right, if that is what you want to happen, then I will stay here for now."
Kevin could see Calvin's sincerity.
Nodding his head, he agreed to his arrangements and sat on a nearby sickbed.
Calvin made a sidelong glance at him.
"I'll be returning soon. Prepare yourself, I'll take care of those bullies first, then I will fetch you here and the two of us will cleanse this place and get rid of that mountain of fat."
Kevin nodded.
Both sides didn't say anything anymore.
Calvin walked out of the infirmary.
He arrived in the corridor and fell into deep contemplation.
In order to end this nightmare and stop the bullying...
Calvin needed to change the perspectives of the students first.
They must understand that enduring it all and keeping silent was a panacea that could solve their problems. Only by stepping forward and letting the bullies know that they weren't someone whom they could trifle with could the bullying end before it reached the point of no return.
But of course, Calvin didn't expect that every student would agree to his opinion.
He only wanted to set an example for others to follow.
He wanted to be that man who stood up against the bullies.
He wanted to be that man that the students would idolize for being brave and whose footsteps they would soon follow.
Calvin walked in the corridor for a quite long time. But he soon arrived in his class, once he entered the classroom. Sir Reyes glanced at him for a moment but didn't say anything. The class continued as usual, but when the class bell rang to signify that the class for today was over, sir Reyes fled as if he was being chased by something.
When the teacher left, the students on the last rows stood up and rushed out of the classroom. They made a sidelong glance at Calvin and even pointed at him as if they were planning something devious.
Leonard and Ziya both saw what was going on and they trembled in fear.
Ziya gnashed her teeth and handed over a crumpled paper to Calvin with a flick.
"Ivan..."
"Don't go out for now!"
"Have your parents come to fetch you!"
Calvin lightly chuckled, "If my parents were here, then those brats would get more than a fierce scolding."
"I'm not joking, Ivan! They gathered their friends from outside the school! You tried to break the status quo, so they want to make it even with you!" Ziya's palms were drenched with sweat and her beaded sweat could also be seen on her forehead. She was really nervous at this moment and so was Leonard.
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid even if they bring an entire battalion," Calvin revealed a mysterious smile. However, he didn't even glance at the two for despite not being afraid of the students. He was afraid that they may implicate both Ziya and Leonard. If that happened, then everything would turn into a chaotic mess that's messier than Calvin's expectations.
Calvin stood up and walked out of the classroom. He returned to the classroom to create some trouble.
If he wanted to end this nightmare, then the more chaotic everything was, the happier he would be, and the easier it would be for him to lure out that mountain of fat and annihilate him together with these bullies.
Yes, together with these bullies.
Calvin had agreed that he would only vanquish these demons and grant them a second chance to reincarnate.
However, he didn't make a deal with Kevin regarding how he should deal with these bullies.
It may be quite sly of Calvin to play with words like that, but Calvin just didn't approve of letting these bullies go so easily like that, especially when he saw Kevin's appearance after the intense bullying and the deep-seated fear of Leonard and Ziya.
Holding pieces of crumpled paper that he made earlier before going out of the infirmary, Calvin calculated that this should be enough to deal with those bullies. Unless their numbers were at the three digits, Calvin wouldn't have any problems against them.
But of course, a contingency plan wouldn't hurt.
Calvin always had one and his contingency plans were one of the reasons why he survived for so long being in the territory of those invaders back in his previous life and being humanity's number one spy in the enemy camp.
Shaking his head, Calvin placed those thoughts into the deepest recesses of his mind.
Letting out a sigh, he started walking.
He detected that both Leonard and Ziya were following him from behind.
The distinct unsteady and hesitant footsteps that they had were not hard to distinguish from the footsteps of others.
This was why Calvin knew that they were following him without even turning around to look at their direction.
Calvin walked down the corridor.
He had no idea where he should go.
The number of students in the corridor decreased, and the remaining ones seemed to know who he was for they all avoided him like the plague. All of them hung their heads low, apparently afraid of his presence as they ran away like rabbits startled by a wolf.
"Man, the last time I was this unpopular was in high school..."
"I don't know why, but I probably shouldn't have bragged that I was a virgin at that time, thinking that being a virgin was cool as hell and that reserving my purity for my one and only is the coolest thing to do."
Calvin was suddenly reminded of some dark and painful times as he let out a pained sigh.
Sweeping his gaze at his surroundings, Calvin realized that there were no students around him anymore. Apart from Leonard and Ziya who were still trying their best to follow him undetected. There was virtually no one around him. Only silence and the darkness of the corridors existed.
Where the hell are they?
I thought they planned on ganging up against me?
I'm already in such a secluded area in this school, yet they are still not here?
What the fuck are they doing?
Calvin's actions at this moment seemed as if he was a paid actor hired by those bullies. He walked into the darker and more secluded corridors as if he was on a sight-seeing tour. In order to give those bullies confidence that he was a weak and easily defeated man.
Calvin made his knees occasionally tremble, but his head raised high.
He gave off the impression that he had nothing to fear, but his occasionally trembling knees would give him away.
"The layout of this school is quite interesting..." Calvin softly uttered.
"Only the faculty or staff room, the dormitory, and the discipline committee's room are populated with people while the other places here on the western side of the school are quite deserted. There are a lot of things such as a science lab, a vocational block, and a recreational room with a piano and some kendoka equipment inside, yet judging from the dust..."
"It's clear, that this place is rarely visited by the teachers and students?"
"I wonder why?"
Calvin took a turn at another corridor and discovered something interesting.
"There are traces of people living in this secluded place?" Calvin saw a pair of sneakers in the corridor at the distance.
Flip-flops were also scattered about.
As far as Calvin could remember, every student in this school wore black shoes as their uniform including the girls. In other words, the owners of these flip-flops and sneakers weren't students of this place. Or if they were students, they should be delinquents.
Calvin instantly made a deduction.
"This should be the living space dedicated to those bullies!"
"The school must've noticed what the bullies were doing, so in order to prevent further disruption of order in the school..."
"They made the bullies stay on the western part of the school, away from the main dormitories located on the eastern side of the school..."
Calvin suddenly became agitated. He wandered around the school as if he had lost his direction. In the end, he arrived at another corridor and when he made a turn. He instinctively turned around him, but then he realized that the corridor where he came from had become a wall!
In other words, there was nothing behind him but a wall!
"Oh..."
Calvin let out a surprised yelp.
"This is getting interesting."
"Since a transformation like this occurred, then it should be time for them to make a move."
Calvin placed his right hand into his right pocket.
Footsteps suddenly interrupted Calvin's movements.
He stared right ahead and found that from another turn at the end of the corridor, he could faintly see the silhouette of people coming towards his direction. He couldn't clearly see them, but it was obvious from their movements that they didn't bring peace with them.
The sound of chains being dragged across the floor rang out.
The air thickened until it was suffocating.
"I know that you are a new student, so it's not a huge problem if you do not understand the hidden rules of this school..."
"However, deliberately trying to change the status quo of this school is something unacceptable. If you want to stay here, then you must respect us. Or else, you may be in due for some serious trouble." The silhouettes weren't just silhouettes anymore.
A man whose physique looked similar to the Rock appeared right in front of Calvin.
He was holding a chain in his right hand and he was dragging that chain across the floor.
"Only three?" Calvin clicked his tongue.
He spent so much time trying to bait every bully out, but in the end, only three came forward.
"Don't worry, the three of us are enough to educate you." The muscle-man stood in front of Calvin while the others quietly surrounded him at the sides.
It was clear that they had no intention of letting Calvin go so easily.
"We're in school. Are you not afraid that I will report you all to the headmaster?" Calvin threatened.
But the students didn't seem to mind.
It was obvious that they had done something like this more than thrice already since they were not afraid of the consequences regarding their actions.
"Go ahead and report us. No matter what, we will definitely teach you a lesson today." The muscle-man crossed his hands in front of his chest and arrogantly said.
The other two students revealed a smirk with one of them saying, "Hey, tough guy. Since you were quite tough earlier to actually dare to beat up one of us in the classroom. Can you show us those moves once more? I really want to see what you did to one of us, so I can also do it to you!"
The student seemed to have gone mad.
Saliva came out of the edge of his lips and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Yes, yes, yes... That's right! Show us!"
"Show us and we may let you escape! But oops! We forgot! There's only a wall behind you and if you want to escape, then you have to get past us!"
"Hahaha..."
The three boisterously laughed.
Calvin swept his gaze at the three and asked, "Do you know what do we say to bullies back in my hometown?"
His questions intrigued the three.
"Oh? You're finally starting to be afraid? Humor us, then."
The three stared at Calvin in amusement.
Calvin also revealed the same amused look and said.
"What do we say to bullies?"
He took a deep breath and roared.
"Fuck off!"
