Different Fujita

The test results were distributed, and sure enough, I was remedial.

The standard score should reach 6, but I only got 5, and while Fujita... Fujita got 7 points.

"Yeah, hahaha, I'm not remedial. I'm so good at it, hahaha." He laughed, intending to make a remedial joke. "But there are also remedial ones, even though it is clear that this test is so easy. Hahaha."

Even though right now I want to smack his head, but I can still hold back my emotions and remain calm.

"Huff~." I exhaled, trying to stay calm with this ordeal. "Fujitora oh Fujitora, even though it's clear that you're the reason why I'm remedial, but you can still be so arrogant to get that much value. You know, you're an unfaithful friend, you're a traitor, and also… don't have a high sense of friendship."

"But at least my grades are higher than yours, Akio-san."

"Ugh..."

His words embarrassed me. It was a fact that his score was higher than my test score. Even though I have my own reasons why my grades can be like that, but the real facts won't change.

"W-Well, that's because-"

"Oh shit, I'm remedial. Why do I always forget to fill in my name, anyway? Why is it like this? Why am I so careless?"

I heard the voice behind me, the voice of Andre Yasir. I know he remedial is also like me, but it's just that he was remedial because of his own carelessness, not because his score is below 6.

There was only one paper on Herman-sensei's desk, it was his. I had time to look at the paper and see the test scores on paper. Andre got a pretty good score, 8 points. He's smart if you look at that score. But when viewed from the other side, it will be seen his carelessness.

"Never mind, don't think about it, Yasir-san. We're both remedial, so don't think too much about it. Better, you focus on the questions that will become remedial questions later. Who knows about remedial it will be different and more already turned out, right?"

"You're right too, Akio. I shouldn't think too much about this, I have to think about the remedial exam later."

"Good."

Luckily he was well persuaded, though the deep voice scared me a little.

"All right, students. For those whose scores are still below 6, do not go home before remedial. Remedial will be held after the home bell rings. And for those who are remedial, for the time being, you won't get the Wlynina Watch until your score is fixed." Herman-sensei opened the plastic that was on his desk. "Please those who want to help me please come forward."

"I!" Fujita raised his hand, but Herman-sensei's face was not convinced by Fujita's.

"Umm, is there anything else?"

"Oi!"

"Alright, Tobi-san, please come forward."

When Fujita was in front, Herman-sensei handed him a paper which was probably a list of the names of the students in this class who were remedial or not.

"Okay, Tobi-san, you…"

Fujita didn't turn to the students, but instead, he continued to look at the contents of the plastic while holding the paper in his hand.

"Tobi-san, what are you doing?"

"I thought it would be better if all these watches were for me."

"Hah?!" The other students were surprised to hear that. They were annoyed by Fujita's words, and Herman-sensei couldn't help but smile forcefully to calm things down.

"Oy, what did you say that, huh?!"

"Yes, that's right. You're so greedy to have all those watches."

The atmosphere was exciting, everyone was calling Fujita in an immediate voice.

However, when Fujita turned towards them, Fujita instead stared at them blankly.

"After all, it's useless if you have this. Neither one of you is of any use against that creature. So it's better, this watch belongs to those who dare to fight against that creature only."

The atmosphere was suddenly silent, the only sound was the ticking of the clock which seemed to fill the background of this class. They looked down at each other, realizing that Fujita's words had some truth in them as well.

"Tobi-san, that's too-"

"You know how many people want to escape the appearance of that creature? How much do they want to survive? They forgot their humanity when the creature appeared. Some don't care about a little girl falling, some don't want to succumb to a pregnant woman, some trample other people's bodies to keep them safe." Fujita took the watch and showed it to them. "If you were the one wearing this watch, would you want to save those humans? Are you ready to give up your life? Are you going to fight that creature? You know, how much profit is gained by wearing this watch alone, it could save hundreds of people."

"..." They were still silent.

"I saw yesterday, how many humans just died and were eaten by that creature. The creature was ruthless, according to what the rumors were circulating. The creature killed and will still kill humans. Whoever you are, be it from the top or the bottom, if you are of no use to this world, don't fight against that creature!"

Fujita's eyes were completely blank, looking like a different person. I didn't think that he could talk like that, even though I've been with him all this time and even shared the same room with him. It's the second time I've seen him like this; the first, when he shot the creature; and secondly, when he talks like that.

I looked at them, none of them dared to reproach Fujita's words. They were as silent as statues think they imagine how scared they are of the creature. Not only them, but even Andre also felt the same.

"Oh, hey right. I am a coward." Andre pondered, staring at the brush he was holding.

When I turned to the front, I saw Herman-sensei smiling behind Fujita and Fujita opening his mouth.

"So, can you guys be called heroes of this world? Are you mentally ready for that? Do you dare to fight that creature? If not, then all these watches are just for me."

They pondered more and more, and when I looked at Fujita, I saw Fujita was smiling so slyly at them.

"Hehehe."

He laughed so softly behind his smile.

"Oi, oi, you just want to use that watch to peek, right?" I said in a low voice. "Why do you have so many watches, Fujitora? And again, why do you always give speeches and make their mental decline like that? You're so mean, Fujitora."

There is another meaning behind all these words. He intends to have all the watches just to peek at women, with the alibi that the use of the watches is useful for saving humans. His speech is so cool, but his aim is so uncool.

Fujita turned around, faced Herman-sensei, and took the plastic bag, and carried it to his seat.

"Oi, wait!" A man stood up, making Fujita stop walking and stare at him. "I-I… I'm a coward, I'm afraid of that creature. My father asked me to join this school to protect humans, but in fact... my mind is still not ready to protect humans. I am a coward. But..." He looked at Fujita so seriously, "your words made me realize, there are so many humans who need their safety. That creature can't be allowed to just kill them, there must be someone who can protect this world. Therefore, please… please give me that watch to prove that I am ready to sacrifice my life for humans."

"I also."

"I also."

Many students stood up after hearing what the boy said.

"Wow, that's a lot of people," I said.

"I also. I promise I will fight that creature with my life."

"Even though I am timid and even afraid of ghosts, I will also fight against that creature. So, give me the watch!"

Fujita made them realize how important it was for them to go to school here. They should have a purpose and put away their fear, that was probably what Fujita meant. If they still harbored such fear, they would still be haunted by a very frightening fear when they met the creature again.

However, what I've seen, it's truly terrifying. If they saw what I saw, maybe their mentality would immediately drop, and maybe they would go crazy. But in this way, with all the mentality they had convinced themselves, they wouldn't be too afraid to meet that Astral Being.

PLOK! PLOK! PLOK!

Herman-sensei suddenly clapped, as if pleased with this.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. You are unexpected, Tobi-san. I misjudged you. You said what you say about what happened that time. You are brave, so different from them. Although I don't know if you are smart or stupid, you can strengthen your friends' mentality. You're amazing, Tobi-san."

"Yeah, hahaha." Fujita laughed, pleased with Herman-sensei's words.

"But…" Herman-sensei looks Fujita seriously, emitting an aura of cruelty from just his gaze, "I won't give all those watches to you! Come back here quickly!"

"Ugh... okay." Fujita walked forward, canceling his intention to own all the watches.

"I know your ulterior motives, you must want to peek at women constantly, right?"

"Ugh... sorry."

When Fujita put the plastic on the table, I shook my head and patted my forehead.

"How can there be a human-like this. Yare, Yare."
