Eve certainly wasn't a fool. She knew that the four of them already knew that her words were the truth, so they cornered her so that she would provide solid evidence to gain the others' beliefs.
"Fu fu, what a terrible combination. All right, if you want proof, then I'll show you. I'll show you that what you think is fantasy is reality."
After that silence ensued, they could feel the change in the air around them. Then the room shook, sending the occupants into a state of panic.
"W-What happened!!?" shouted Ike in a panic.
"I-I don't know," said Sudou who couldn't contain his surprise.
Seeing his classmates panicked and worried, Hirata decided to intervene.
"Everyone, stay calm. This is probably what Eve-san meant earlier," said Hirata.
After hearing Hirata's words, some people started to calm themselves and thought that Hirata's words had some truth. This was probably Eve's way of showing her strength.
Then like a cube that had all sides disassembled, the walls and ceiling of the room changed and became a scene they would never have imagined.
A boundless sea of clouds stretched below them and a pure blue sky above them. They were all speechless because in their entire life they had never experienced such an extraordinary event.
Ike approached cautiously against the now transformed wall, a cool breeze wafting over him as he approached.
"O-Oi, Kanji," called Sudou.
"Th-This can't be real, right? Yes, this must be a projection," Ike assured himself. Then he leaned his hand against what was supposed to be the wall, only to not touch anything. Because his balance point had been shaken, Ike plunged freely into the sea of clouds below him.
"A-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"
Ike's terrified scream took everyone by surprise, especially when they saw Ike fall down.
"KANJI!!!"
"IKE!!!"
Sudou and Shinohara shouted at the same time, they then rushed to where Ike fell.
"Don't move! Stop! You two can fall too," Mashima shouted, stopping the two of them.
"But, Ike...!!" shouted Shinohara anxiously.
Their anxiety did not last long, because not long after that Ike appeared in front of them. His body froze in midair, motionless. Then Ike's body floated slowly and landed near Sudou and Shinohara. When he lands, only then can he move.
"Hah... hah... I-I thought I was going to die just now," Ike said shakily, sweat dripping from his face.
"You're an idiot!!" Shinohara shouted while hitting Ike's head.
"Ouch, hey that hurts-" Ike shouted, but he stopped when he saw Shinohara's face that was almost crying.
"What are you doing!? You could have died earlier!" Shinohara shouted.
"I-I'm sorry," Ike apologized weakly.
Everyone watched the scene in silence and was speechless. Sudou breathed a sigh of relief knowing his friend was fine.
"Please be careful next time, because once you fall down you can't come back," said Eve's voice that echoed around them.
Then after that the room returned to normal, the usual theater room.
"Now. Do you all believe me?" Eve asked.
No one now refutes Eve's words, the incident just now has proven her words. Mashima came forward on behalf of everyone.
"A-Alright, we believe. So please don't hurt the students anymore," Mashima said nervously.
"..."
Eve fell silent hearing Mashima's words, she didn't mean to hurt anyone at all. But it seemed that the incident earlier had a big impact on them.
"I'm sorry, it seems that the previous one was too strong for you guys. Honestly, I didn't mean to hurt you at all when I brought you here," Eve said.
"Ignore their sentiments, quickly tell us why you brought us here," said Ryuuen who was not at all affected by anything that happened.
"Fu fu, as expected of you, Ryuuen-kun. You're always not afraid of anything, right? Well, not all of it."
Ryuuen's brows twitched at those last words, he was without a doubt certain that this being who called herself an Overseer knew of his defeat to Ayanokouji.
"Well, the reason I brought you all here is because I wanted you to do something for me."
"And if we refuse?" Horikita asked.
"You will be cooped up here until you all agree."
A commotion erupted upon hearing those words.
"What!? Isn't that too selfish? You brought us here by force and you want us to do something for you!? What are you doing all that for!?" shouted Karuizawa angrily, many people agreed with her words because what Eve said was so selfish.
"Hm, if you ask like that, then the answer is I'm bored."
"Hah!?" Karuizawa was flabbergasted, as were the other students.
"I'm bored, you know. There was nothing else I could do but watch your lives, so I got bored and tried something else to overcome my boredom. Ah but I'm not neglecting my duty, okay?"
Almost everyone couldn't believe what they heard. A mysterious entity brought them forcefully into this room and forced them to do something for her because she was bored.
An uproar ensued among the students, many of whom were angry and resentful of Eve. They had completely forgotten that just a moment ago they were frightened when she displayed her power.
"No kidding!"
"Who do you think you are!"
"Send us back!"
The students shouted showing their annoyance. If it continues like this, the situation will only get worse.
"We-"
TAK!!
Before the protest continued, a loud thud echoed through the room and silenced everyone.
The culprit was Hashimoto who used Sakayanagi's stick and stomped the stick against the wooden floor. He then gave the stick back to Sakayanagi who looked like she had run out of patience.
"Can all of you just stop having this ridiculous conversation and get to the point? This is a complete waste of time," said Sakayanagi in a firm tone.
Sakayanagi knew that Eve would not grant their wish because Eve wanted to relieve her boredom. A person's strong will cannot change. Sakayanagi knew that very well, because she had also experienced the same thing as Eve.
She used to have a wish, a very strong wish and she would destroy anyone who stood in her way.
Her wish was a fight with a student named Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, and a few weeks ago her wish was granted and she was very satisfied with the result.
None of them could reply to Sakayanagi's words, even though on the outside she was just a weak, flawed girl, but the intimidating aura she gave off was not that of an ordinary girl.
She was Sakayanagi Arisu, the leader of Class A. She was the one who stood at the top level for the first year.
Ryuuen was amused to see those silent people, to him they were just weak people who knew only whining. Horikita just sighed and crossed her arms, she personally agreed with Sakayanagi. Ichinose remains silent with her friends, she decides to believe Eve's words that she won't hurt them.
"Eve-san, can you tell us what you want from us?" asked Sakayanagi.
"It's simple, we are in the theater room. What else should we do?" Eve said.
"You mean we watch?" Ibuki asked, somehow she felt a little excited.
"Yep. I want you to watch what I'm about to present to you."
"What are you going to show? Is it a Movie?" Ishizaki asked who was not very interested.
"Fu fu. No, it's not going to be a Movie, a documentary, or the like. What I'm about to broadcast is something that's very interesting even for Sakayanagi-chan and Ryuuen-kun."
"Oh!?" said Sakayanagi slightly surprised.
"Hoo, I hope your words aren't mere nonsense," Ryuuen said.
"Of course. So... Do you agree?" Eve asked everyone.
"Class D agrees," Ryuuen said without thinking about the approval of his classmates.
"Class A also agrees," said Sakayanagi following.
Now only Class B and C are left. Ichinose looks at her friends for discussion, after a while they finally make up their mind.
"Class B agrees," said Ichinose.
As for class C, everyone subconsciously looked towards Horikita. Horikita who sensed their gazes then turned to Hirata.
"What do you think, Hirata-kun?" Horikita asked.
"I think we should agree, since we've lost the vote now. And personally I'm also interested in what will be broadcast," said Hirata.
"I think so," Horikita said, then she made up her mind, "Alright, class C agrees."
"Very well. Now what about the teachers?" Eve asked the homeroom teachers who had been silent for a long time.
Mashima looked at the other teachers, seeing there was no other way out of here so they too made up their mind.
"Alright, we agree too," said Mashima.
"It has been decided! Now please sit in the space provided."
Those who were still standing went to their respective seats according to their class. Karuizawa and her group went to where class C sat, they talked to each other about what would be broadcast.
"What do you think will be broadcast?" said one of the girls.
"I don't know, but Eve-san thinks it's something interesting even for Sakayanagi-san and Ryuuen-kun," replied another girl.
"I can't imagine what they would be interested in."
"Me too. What do you think, Karuizawa-san?"
"Eh? A-Ah I don't know either, ha ha."
Karuizawa, who had been silent all this time, was taken aback by her friends' questions, causing her to stutter in response. Her mind wasn't focused at the moment, for some reason she had a bad feeling when she heard Eve's words about what the Overseer was about to broadcast. But above all there was one thing she was worried about.
Where is that idiot!? Where's Kiyotaka!? I haven't seen it at all since then! Karuizawa shouted in her mind. She had checked everyone since she entered this room, but she couldn't find Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's whereabouts at all.
Apparently, Karuizawa wasn't the only one who noticed that Ayanokouji wasn't around. In the back row, Ayanokouji's group was also worried about the same thing.
"Hey, hasn't anyone seen Kiyopon?" Asked a worried Hasebe.
"No, I've been watching all the students earlier but I didn't see them," Miyake replied, because they weren't seated yet so he could see everyone.
"Could it be that he still hasn't come?" Sakura asked.
"That's not possible. Eve said 'everything' has arrived, so there's no way Kiyotaka isn't around, unless he doesn't get the message," said Yukimura, all of whom thought Yukimura's words made sense.
"Gosh, where the hell is he?" Hasebe said crossing her arms.
"I'm here."
"Hwa!"
"Hya!"
Hasebe and Sakura both screamed when they heard a voice from behind them. They all immediately turned to the source of the sound and saw Ayanokouji standing behind them.
"Why are you guys?" Ayanokouji asked, confused by their reaction.
"K-Kiyotaka-kun!?" Sakura stammered.
"K-K-Kiyopon!? Y-You.... What are you doing that for!? I almost had a heart attack earlier!" shouted Hasebe in annoyance.
"That's right, Kiyotaka. Gosh, I almost screamed earlier too," Akito said with a sigh.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to do it," Ayanokouji said apologetically.
It took a while, but they finally calmed down from Ayanokouji's surprise earlier.
"Still Kiyotaka, where have you been? I haven't seen you at all before," said Yukimura.
"Oh, about that. You see the corridor over there, I was a little interested so I went exploring for a bit," said Ayanokouji while pointing to a corridor.
This room is similar to an ordinary theater room, only much wider and has a lot of capacity. The first seat is at the bottom and the last seat is at the top. And behind the last seat, right in the middle in front of the stairs where people walk to get their seats. There is a wide corridor.
"You went exploring? It's dangerous Kiyopon! What if something happened to you!?" Hasebe asked.
"Haruka-chan's right, Kiyotaka-kun," Sakura said worriedly.
"I'm fine, I won't do anything reckless. I don't want to end up like Ike," Ayanokouji said.
They all automatically looked at Ike who was currently talking to Sudou casually, it seemed he had recovered from the previous events.
"What's it like there?" Yukimura asked. The point of the question was what the corridor looked like, Ayanokouji understood that.
"Similar to a normal corridor, along the corridor there are 2 doors on the left and right. At the end of the corridor there are 4 elevators, judging from the floor buttons on the elevator, it seems that where we are now has 13 floors. Then to the right of the elevator, there's an automatic door but it's locked so I don't know where it leads. But what interests me is the door in the corridor," explained Ayanokouji.
"Why is that?" Miyake asked.
"In each of the doors in the corridor, there is a nameplate for the door room, the nameplate reads 'Class A Meeting Room'. I also saw that other signage also had the same name, only the class names were different. B, C, and D."
"I see. I think whatever Eve is going to show will allow us to discuss each other," said Yukimura while touching his chin.
"I think so too," said Ayanokouji.
It made them wonder what Eve was going to show, but that was a question that would be answered later so they ended the discussion.
"Well, the important thing is that you are here now, Kiyopon. With this our group is complete," Hasebe said, setting aside the complicated things in her mind.
"Then let's sit down, we've wasted too much time," said Yukimura.
That way a group of five people sat at the back of the C class row.
Karuizawa who saw their conversation earlier heaved a sigh of relief. When she heard Ayanokouji's name earlier, she quickly turned her head to look behind her. Almost broke her neck.
But now her anxiety was gone so now she could hang out with her friends in peace.
"Now, before we start there are a few things I have to tell you," Eve said when she saw everyone was ready.
"What is it?" Mashima asked.
"The first is that what I will be broadcasting is very much and it will take a lot of time for you to watch it all. That means you'll be here for days."
"WHAT!?" shouted the surprised students.
"Wait, days? We can't do that, the new school year is about to start. It will be dangerous for the students when they can't attend the first day," Mashima said.
It is true. The students in this room will be starting their second year of school in 3 or 4 days, if they all don't attend the first day of school, it will definitely cause a stir in the school and a massive investigation will begin.
"About that there's no problem, I already have a solution," Eve said in response to Mashima's concern.
"What's that?" Mashima asked.
"When you get out of here and go back to your normal lives, you only spend a minute out there. In other words, it doesn't matter how much time you spend here, you'll be back at 7.01 pm on April 3rd. And don't worry about your lifespan, it won't move for a second."
Eve's long explanation left everyone speechless. They were too shocked to find out the fact that no matter how much time they spent here, only 1 minute passed in their world.
"I-Is that something that can be done with supernatural powers?" stammered Shibata asked.
"Yep. Supernatural powers have an unlimited number, this is one of them. You already know about that right, Sotomura-kun?"
The silent Sotomura was surprised when his name was mentioned, "R-Right. I do know a lot about supernatural powers from the anime I watch, it's just that I don't know that those powers are real."
"Fu fu. I hope you guys aren't surprised anymore when I do something. Now let's move on to your second notice, which is your needs."
"Our needs?" said one of the class B students.
"Yes, your need to eat, drink and sleep. I did stop your lifespan for a while but not with your needs."
"H-How do we deal with it?" Ike asked nervously. For some reason, since what happened earlier, he's been a bit docile. Usually he will panic and immediately make a fuss. Maybe that incident made him like that.
"There's no need to worry about that matter. I'll explain it to you guys when tonight's session ends. Now let's move on to the final notice, which is about what I'm going to broadcast."
Everyone listened intently, previously they had discussed what Eve would be showing, but neither of them could draw any conclusions.
"What I will show is.... The life you've lived this past year while attending Advanced Nurturing High School."
For the umpteenth time, silence ensued. No one was able to speak. They were all too shocked to hear what Eve had to say, neither of them could have predicted that they would witness their own lives.
"Our... life?" said Hirata slowly.
"To be more precise, you will look back on events that happened during your first year, such as island exams, cruises, sports festivals, and so on."
"For what? Don't we already know the result?" Ishizaki said. Some of the students agreed with Ishizaki, they already knew the result of what Eve had mentioned earlier. So they feel no need to look at it again because it will just be a waste of time.
"Yes, you already know the result, but do you know the process? What happened during the exam?"
They couldn't answer. It's true what Eve said, they know the result but not the process.
"Also, this is good for you guys. This show can help improve yourself, for example, if you make a wrong decision during an exam, you can learn from your past self to become better."
Eve's words started to make sense to them, especially since it could make them make better decisions about their past mistakes.
But even though there are those who are excited, there are also those who feel dissatisfied. Ryuuen is one of them.
"Wait, I don't care what you say about getting better, what's more important is that I don't see what's interesting about this show at all," Ryuuen said.
"Fu fu, calm down. I'll get into that part. Since there are so many of you, it is impossible to watch it all at once, so I will make this video from one person's point of view only. Well, as for the point of view of the person we are going to watch I leave it to you guys to choose."
"Hah!? Why do we have to choose?" Ibuki asked crossing her arms.
"Yeah, why not just chosen at random? Girls will want a popular guy if we decide," said Ishizaki.
The girls sent sharp eyes at Ishizaki, but they didn't deny that the popular guy would be their pick.
"Well, I can do it randomly. But what if the chosen one turns out to be a pervert? Do you want to watch it?"
"What!? Of course not! That's disgusting," Shinohara shouted, representing all the girls' feelings.
"Ha ha, don't worry, the selection will be made by the class representative after discussion with your classmates. And now what you are waiting for Ryuuen-kun, you are free to choose whoever is in this room. Maybe someone caught your eye? It's okay to choose that person. There will be no problems, everything is allowed."
Some people are displeased to hear that their daily life is allowed to be seen without their consent. But Ryuuen didn't care about those people. He focused on Eve's words, there was some emphasis on her words that made him squint. He thought for a moment, before long he widened his eyes.
"Ku ku ku... ku ku ha ha ha ha ha!!" Ryueen laughed loudly as he concluded Eve's
