Koro-sensei's What? (2)

Hey, Shun here!

Now that I think about it, isn't having a [Dimensional Chat Group] such a huge advantage? So long as you don't become mental due to how jarring the time discrepancy between dimensions is, you could essentially treat it as some kind of Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

What's more, we get to have cheats every other [Quests].

✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽

(Shun's POV)

Ever since we came here, we were too preoccupied with many things and so, we haven't really had enough time to really have a meeting as to what we should do in the future. Though, just recently, we did have that conversation and we talked about it at length.

Although I say that, Pochi and Tama doesn't really have much to say besides, "Pochi and everyone could train for months that equals a second nodesu!" and "Hyper Superbolic Time Chambeer~?"

I mean, they weren't wrong. Even in Rokuko's dimension, I used so much time to train myself. Because of those months of training montage, I got the hang of using my skills without the in-game assistance.

We arrived here around the second week of May so it's been almost a full month that we've been in this dimension. According to the information we've garnered up until now, we have at most a little over 10 months to train and really spend the full duration of that 10 months here.

The big question is, would we want to do that or just constantly try our best to assassinate our teacher, which will certainly end our quest right then and there. However, what's seriously bothering me and Mutsuko-san, and as Rokuko pointed out, is our subquests.

✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽

The problem with our subquests is that the last one could be kinda misleading. The description is saying that our objective is to kill Koro-sensei but the subquest didn't talk about him specifically.

While you could certainly argue that this [Grim Reaper] that the subquest is talking about is Koro-sensei, I could also argue that it should've mentioned Koro-sensei specifically like what it has done in our previous quests like slaying the [Poisonous Hydra] and the [Great Eaters]. Like me, it seems like Mutsuko-san also have her suspicions since Koro-sensei have already mention or insinuated a couple of times that he used to be a human.

We don't have a concrete evidence yet but, it looks like Koro-sensei and that someone who experimented on him is connected to the second to the last subquest. I feel like meeting him would be a pipe dream though.

Koro-sensei is an assassin, or atleast I think he is, given how good he is here teaching such a thing, and with his petty nature, I don't think he'll let anyone who tampered with his body live to tell the tale. Now, him being dead would really be such a huge drawback to us since it will be hard to find the experimental records but, then again, Koro-sensei and the people who are in power all over the world should know about this.

While I was thinking of such things, something cold suddenly touched my face and I couldn't help but lean back due to it.

"What are you being so serious about, Shun-kun?" The culprit was Mutsuko-san.

The thing that touched my face was a cold bottle of energy drink. I don't really drink energy drinks but since she went out of her way to give me some, I'm not one to decline.

"Ah, thank you. Well, I was just thinking about our quest and what to do about it."

"Whaaat~? You're still thinking of that? Didn't we already agree to stay here for the whole duration of the quest?" Mutsuko-san opened her can of drinks before sipping some of it.

"Well, yeah. I just thought that we'll have a few difficulties completing the last two quests."

"Maa, don't think about it too much for now. Usually, in many stories, the clues appear when the protagonist least expect it."

When we least expect it, huh.

"Ah, come to think of it! We're almost done constructing Ritsu's body, huh. She should be ready to go back to school in a few days, right?" Mutsuko-san said while taking out a snack and offering some to me.

"Want some?" she said.

"Thanks. And yeah, she should be ready anytime soon. Are you excited to be inside your new body, Ritsu?"

"Yes! I'm looking forward to it. By the way, there seems to be an application I couldn't access on your smartphone… It seems so uncrackable to me." Ritsu said.

"Maa, don't worry about that. Someone really great made that."

"Hee… Someone really amazing, huh…"

A few more days passed since that English lesson where Pochi and Tama 'excelled'. Irina-sensei's teacher came that same day and the whole thing turned into some kind of challenge.

He said something about Irina-sensei being unfit for this job, referring to the job of killing Koro-sensei. He further said that she is not a good assassin, in which I have to disagree.

If we're just talking about physical prowess, Irina-sensei is just a bit better than most humans. However, if we're talking about her skills as an assassin, I think she's extremely talented in that front.

Like, seriously. I've seen her attempt at 'assassinating' Karasuma-sensei in order to prove herself to Karasuma-sensei and her teacher, and she succeeded after putting together an elaborate plan.

Ah, anyway, I should probably stop. The main problem that I have right now is this guy in front of me.

"You, you seem like the second strongest in this class. Before I fight the strongest, I want to defeat the second strongest first…"

"Look here, muscle head. We're currently living in the 21st Century and not in the Prehistoric Ages. You get me? Besides, why do you even want to be the strongest?"

"If you don't want to fight me, I'll fight the third and fourth strongest, then…"

The guy wanted to go towards Pochi and Tama but, of course I can't have them fight this guy. I can tell that he's dangerous.

Also, the guy who brought him here, and the way he addressed Koro-sensei… I think I stand to gain a lot of information from fighting this guy…

Well, how did it all come down to this, you ask? It all started when this guy, the new transfer student, was introduced to our whole class.

✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽

The weather today is not the best as the rain kept on pouring. The humidity in the air is high, resulting in the atmosphere being colder than usual.

"Alright… Let's start the home room…" Koro-sensei said in a rather lethargic manner.

The day just started, but something bizarre already happened. From some reason or another, Koro-sensei came inside our classroom with his head a lot bigger than usual.

It's like he had a tumor on his head that grew overnight or something.

Of course, this didn't escape our eyes and the kids in our class, Pochi and Tama, was quick to mention it.

"Ah! Yellow octopup-sensei turned into big head yellow octopup-sensei nodesu! Ama-ziing nanodesu!

"Octopus-sensei's head, bigger~?"

This seemingly harmless remark coming from kids immediately made Koro-sensei snap back from his previous demeanor as he shook off the supposed moisture out of his body.

"Kuro-kun, Shirayuki-kun, you should call sensei 'Koro-sensei' like your friends. Shirakami-kun, Sakaki-san, Labyrinthhart-san, please tell them that! Also, while you're at it, teach that I used to be a handsome young man!"

I ignored his words when he said that, of course. Pochi and Tama will probably call him sensei eventually. They just have this habit of sticking to what they initially decided to call you, so it might take some time though.

"Ku-hum! Students, I'm assuming that you have heard from Karasuma-sensei that you'll be getting a new classmate."

"Ah, that? He's probably just another assassin like Ritsu, Shirakami-kun, Sakaki-san, Labyrinthhart-san, Kuro-chan, and Shirayuki-chan, right?" Our classmate who goes by the name Nakamura Rio, a blonde haired girl who's entire demeanor and get up screams 'gyaru', said.

"Yeah, it's probably that, isn't it?" Another classmate of ours who goes by the name Yada Touka, added. She's a brown haired girl who ties her hair in a pony tail. She also has a pair of light purple eyes.

From what I've heard, the guys of our class ranked her second in their own list of "Girls You Are Interested In" before we transferred to this class. Kanzaki-san seems to be at ranked first while Kurahashi-san ranked third.

As we continued to talk about the new transfer student and who it might be, the front door of our classroom opened and a weird grown man wearing fully white attire that covers his whole body showed up. I've never seen anyone more suspicious than this guy.

It seems like even my classmates agree. Do note that each and everyone of them are weird in their own ways. Ah, I guess you could include us to them?

"What's with that outfit? He looks weird in it."

"Is he the new student? He looks like an adult to me already…"

The next moment, the suspicious guy suddenly raised his hand and began showing us a magic trick, which I was not very amused of since I could see through what he did. Like, can't you be a little faster with your hands?

"Hahaha, sorry. I didn't mean to scare you all. Anyway, I'm not the transfer student, but his guardian. You can all call me 'Shiro' or 'Shiro-san' if you'd like."

How fake. I've seen Mom and Dad talk to a variety of people from the business world and I could totally tell that this guy's trying so hard to come across as a nice and approachable guy.

People like this… They tend to be someone who's trying hard to hide their darker side.

"Master [Admin-sensei] nodesu. That white guy-san is weird nanodesu! He smells bad nanodesuyo?"

"Un… Smell of yuckiness~…"

Even Pochi and Tama seems to agree. Also, what they're saying is kinda intriguing… Does that mean that this guy is not at all taking any bath?

In any case, I'm gonna put him on my 'People I want to investigate' list. This guy's actually even more suspicious to me than Koro-sensei is.

"Well then, let me introduce to you the transfer student… Hey, Itona!"

The next moment, a wall from behind us suddenly cracked open with a booming sound and a boy around the same age as us came in. It was raining outside but this guy who doesn't seem to have any umbrella in his possession came inside with his uniform completely dry.

The first words that came out of his mouth was…

"I won… I proved to that wall that I'm stronger than it…"

Sounds about right. Well, looks like we have yet another oddball in our midst.

"Great…" I muttered under my breath.
