Felix’s Classroom Of The Elite - Chapter 108
“Wait! Is that even allowed what he did?” The guy who was among the fleeing group shouted at the referee
“Well…as far as I am aware, he didn’t break any rules. It is the truth that this was rather a bizarre way how to snatch the headband which means that there is no rule regarding such a thing. Maybe there was over too much physical contact with the enemy team…” The referee said with a thoughtful expression while holding his chin.
“Booo!” Everyone who wasn’t part of Class B or C immediately disagreed when they heard his last sentence.
His brows twitched a bit after hearing the crowd.
“…But…We can’t disqualify him just like that. He didn’t break any specific rule and that’s it. I personally think that he deserves this win for his creativity and guts he showed to us.” The referee made his final words and earned the crowd’s favor.
…
“I must say, that was really crazy…” Miyake commented when we were returning to our tent.
“Forget what he did…Walker-kun, you seriously look kinda creepy and dangerous when you smile crazily…like some kind of wild animal” Ike said while warily watching me.
“Hehe, thanks for the compliment!” I replied with a small smile.
“Stop being such a chicken, Kanji. We were able to get as many points as we could, nothing else matters.” Sudo said with a wide smile while showing off his white teeth, his mood was really good.
…
“Guys, good job!!!” Almost everyone congratulated us and our group finally dispersed, everyone went to join their own respective group of friends.
“Walker-kun, that was really crazy but also awesome at the same time!” Kei approached me with other girls in tow.
“Well, I was lucky.” I answered with a forced smile.
“What interest me the most is how you were able to snatch the other guy’s headband without him showing any reaction…” Horikita asked me while giving me a suspicious look.
“Calm down, it’s notching-” Before I was able to finish my sentence I stopped talking because I noticed someone approaching us.
The girls also noticed how I suddenly stopped and looked in the specific direction so they turned in that direction too.
“Yo, how you doing, Horikita and Walker!” Ryuen approached us and “asked” us but it definitely didn’t feel like a question.
“What are you doing here, Ryuen? We were told that we can’t visit other classes’ tents or did you perhaps forgot?” Horikita folded her arms and asked him back, ignoring his question while glaring at him with a cautiousness.
“Kuku, no need to be so aggressive right from the beginning. I am here just to talk and if you hadn’t noticed yet, the lunch break has already begun so we are free to go wherever we want” Ryuen grinned after seeing Horikita’s hostility and said while ignoring other people’s presence except for me and Horikita.
“And why do you exactly think that we will talk to you?” Horikita took a lead in the conversation with him, as to show others that she isn’t afraid of him.
“Kuku, careful with that cold and arrogant tone, you might lose it very soon. Anyway, I am not here for you today so you can leave.” Ryuen mysteriously said and then motioned with his hand for Horikita to leave which made her frown in dissatisfaction.
“Walker, I have heard from the guy what happened and I can’t hide my amazement. I was even hesitating whether to believe in his words or not so I came here to ask you in person.” He said with a curious smile.
Everyone just kept quiet because their interest was also piqued after hearing Ryuen’s words.
“What is it?” I turned my entire body at him and asked with an apathetic face.
I prayed inwardly.
“Apparently, he couldn’t move because he saw a big snake watching him, haha. Even though he failed me, he at least managed to make me laugh. I even asked him if he took something funny this morning but seeing how he was behaving I couldn’t help but come here in person to satiate my curiosity.” Ryuen heartily laughed when he mentioned his lackey’s report.
“Why should we tell you anything?! Just go back to your monkey friends and eat bananas together for lunch.” Kei replied even before I could respond and shooed him away.
“Hm?” Ryuen turned his attention at Kei who he was ignoring previously. He slowly walked up to her and stopped right before her. Kei had to look up to him due to being shorter and this was his way to intimidate her. He probably saw her only as an arrogant girl who knows a shit. Kei tried her best not to shake and resolutely glared back into his eyes without wavering.
“Oho? You are a funny one, let’s see…” He said and raised his hand, slowly moving it towards Kei’s shoulder.
She was slightly surprised that he would try to do something in front of so many people, her legs started to shake a bit but she gulped and continued resolutely glaring at his eyes without backing away.
When his hand was just about to touch her shoulder I intercepted and caught his wrist.
He turned at me without any change in his expression as if he was expecting this result.
“You want to confirm the story your guy told you, don’t you?” I asked him in an emotionless tone while taking a glance at Kei. She understood my short glance and backed away from us.
“Kuku, it seems that you are willing to talk?” He grinned when he heard my words.
“Willing to talk? Why do we need to talk when I can let you experience it?” I said and mover closer to him, we were facing each other, our heights were similar and it was impossible to tell who was taller but for the spectators, he probably looked more intimidating due to his bigger body frame.
Others were getting ready to intercept us if we suddenly started a fight, fortunately, there was no teacher right now due to the lunch break.
Ryuen, on the other hand just frowned when he heard my words but he didn’t move an inch when I approached him, instead, he just continued watching with a curious expression with a grin.
I closed my eyes and judging by other’s response, they were surprised by my move.
Ryuen definitely isn’t somebody who is a weak-willed like that previous guy. This makes it better for me to try out what I wanted to try earlier. But now that he is so close by, let’s not go for immobilization for a longer time, it probably wouldn’t even work on someone like him. It was possible only because that guy started panicking. The right way how to use intimidation is the sudden and short attack with the goal to freeze your opponent’s mind for a second. Even though it’s only good for a single second…it’s still enough time to change the course of the battle if used in the right moment when the opponent’s guard is down.
I circulated energy into my eyes to enhance the effect of my upcoming intimidation. I completely relaxed my body and slightly opened my eyelids.
—
‘What is he doing?’ Everyone thought when Felix only slightly opened his eyelids, still, they were unable to see his eyes.
—
I put my hand on his shoulder and lightly pushed down.
*Thud*
Ryuen has fallen down on his ȧss and only then he recovered while having a dumbfounded expression on his face.
—
‘What was that? He didn’t even use force to make me sit down.’ Ryuen thought with a confused expression, trying to figure out what has just happened.
—
“Is that enough for you to satiate your curiosity?” I coldly asked while staring down at him which finally made him move.
“Kuhhahah” However, instead of feeling ashamed or humiliated, he actually started to madly laugh.
He got up and patted his clothes off of dirt and dust.
“Hehe, this was more than enough. You are really good, Walker! You just improved my mood by a lot, so I will let you enjoy your lunch break without any further interruptions as a ‘thank you’” He said and walked away while grinning like a madman.
…Everyone just quietly watched his disappearing back while he was occasionally chuckling.
“What was that? That was totally awesome…” Kei was the first one to approach me and asked me with a shocked yet confused expression.
“Yes, that was a very bizarre sight…” Horikita commented while having a thinking face.
“Haha, that was totally awesome, how you just forced him to sit down in front of you” Matsushita happily said, unfortunately, or fortunately, she didn’t understand that I didn’t even have to force him to sit down.
Although Mii-chan didn’t say anything, she was still staring at me in awe which slightly surprised me.
“Calm down a bit…I will explain it later, right now is time for lunch so let’s not waste time here…” I tried to change the subject and everyone’s stomach growled when I finished with my sentence.
“Yeah, let’s go to the cafeteria before it becomes too crowded to find an empty table.” Kei agreed and suggested to everyone.
“Um…are you expecting me to join in too?” I asked with an awkward expression.
“Of course!” Kei, Matsushita, and Mii-chan exclaimed at the same time.
“Eh…I am sorry but I won’t be able to accompany you. I have things to do plus I am not hungry.” I said and lied that I am not hungry even though I suggested to them to go for lunch.
“Hmm? What will you do if you aren’t hungry?” Kei asked suspiciously.
“I am going to take a very long cold shower.” I said without any change in my expression and Kei continued to stare at me suspiciously.
“Hmph, alright, it’s your loss…Horikita-san, are you coming with us?” Kei snapped her head to the side in an upset manner and then asked Horikita.
“…I am fine, thanks” She seemed a bit surprised to get invited by Kei but she quickly recovered and refused her offer.
“Okay…” Kei didn’t ask for her reason and just started walking towards the school building.
Mii-chan and Matsushita were slightly surprised when Kei moved so suddenly so they quickly followed after her but not before waving at me for the last time with a bright smile.
…
“So…When do you plan to look at my leg, it hurts much more than before. What you said was true.” Horikita asked when we were left alone.
“Of course I was right, but I have something to do before I will be able to treat your leg or at least try to treat it.” I said with a nod which made her frown a bit.
“I thought the shower was your excuse…” She said with one eyebrow raised.
“It was but I still have to prepare some things before I will be able to take care of your problem so just grit your teeth and endure the pain for a bit longer.” I said with a straight face.
“Alright…text me when you will be done, I will be waiting in our classroom when I am done with my lunch.” She replied and left.
Taking the same way the girls took…How awkward it will be when you will meet each other? I thought while looking at her back with a weird look.
