Chapter CXI - Determination (part 1)

The students couldn't believe the sentence coming out from Elmone's mouth, but the class president shows no sign of him joking around.

"W-What?"

"Is he for real?"

"Elmone, are you okay?"

Everyone began to ask something, but Elmone stayed silent. He knows that answering now will only remove the purpose of his declaration, so he stayed silenced.

Noticing that they will not receive an answer, the class E students all went silent as well and waited for him to continue.

"I know… it sounded impossible. But, we have a plan that I think it's good. And… I think it's worth a try."

Elmone took a deep breath before continuing.

"How many times… have we been bullied? By those jerks, from the other classes? Is there anyone that knows what kind of things they have done, and can still put up with them?"

Elmone asked them wholeheartedly. His voice battered everyone, and they all went into silence as they listened in.

"It was only yesterday that Jericho got beaten down and badly wounded. Or maybe a week ago, when Alden got knocked out from an unfair fight."

Elmone spoke with a very angry tone. Maybe because he is angry. I can only sense enmity from his voice.

"And how long are we planning to stay like this!? I say, we get out of this situation. No, we flip it. 

We make those dogs at class A their own poops that they throw at us. We will take class A for ourselves."

His words somehow placed the others under a petrifying silence, but they all agreed to every single word.

CLAP!! CLAPP!!

One of the female students that stood on the front, I think Maneil was her name, lightly clapped. From her expression, I can tell she is quite against this.

"I'm following so far... But, do you have a plan?"

"'We' have a plan. And, it's the best one we got."

TAP!

Elmone lifted his left hand and tapped my shoulder. I quickly move it away with my hand while staring sharply at him.

"Don't touch me."

"S-Sorry…"

As Elmone took a step back, I moved forward to face everyone else, and they all watched me carefully. Now that Elmone has given me the stage, I took the step forward and stood straight, and I faced them with a cold expression.

"Previously, I said at the ceremony that I will become the number one in the whole academy. And I can do that easily, for sure. But, that means those piglets in class A will still be there as my next classmates.

I'm planning on changing that. Which is why I have come to the next part of my goal."

I stopped my sentence and closed my eyes. Then I opened them and grinned widely like a mad person.

"I'm going to rack up your scores... every single one of you. Then, we are going to throw the class A bastards out of their cute little thrones. 

I will train all of you to the bones and push your limits, all the way until every single one of you is capable of beating at least two class A students single-handedly. 

We... are going to start chaos!"

I said that while letting in a little bit of pressure. Feeling the air stiffens, they all can only listen with their skins shivering from the force of my speech.

"Now, if you don't want to, that's fine. There are always other students, and I won't have any problems with anyone. But, if you guys show even the slightest form of hesitation... 

I will immediately drop you out of the game."

The others looked quite surprised hearing my offer, and they are pondering over what to do. Going with my plan means that they will have to go through hell. 

And for them to do that, is…

"I'll go."

Maneil suddenly stepped forward.

"I mean, it's bound to happen. I'm sick of being the last place, anyways. I've always wanted a change."

Maneil said so calmly as she turned and faced the other students. The others somehow lightened up and followed the mood.

"T-That's right! It's time we beat those class A assholes!"

"That's right! I'm going to make that blonde bastard pay."

The boys also started to join in with the motion, and slowly the girls as well. Their hate over the students from the other classes has made them like this. The tireless desire to turn the tables for once, with nothing to lose.

I looked around and saw the determination on their faces. Looks like everything is ready.

"Okay. I'll leave them to you."

I said to Elmone. The glasses guy quickly nods his head and tells everyone that they can leave. We will continue the meeting later after the second class.
