Man, Paimon is finally back!

I've been re reading the past ln volumes to pass the boredom when I had free time.

I didn't know Kiyo flipped off Ryuuen.

I completely missed it.

Anyway, let's actually start making progress in volume 4!

Third Person PoV

1. Kiyopon plays a game of werewolf?

Kiyopon looked around and saw many students going to the respective rooms they were supposedly assigned to.

Kiyopon wondered who'd be in the room he was assigned to....

Well, whoever it is....

New friends to make, right?

Yes.

He must fill his notebook, no matter what!

Kiyopon breathed in and out before opening the door.

" Hoh? So the silent Ayanokoji-dono is one of our two missing spots? Welcome to my domain!" Sotomura spoke with a somewhat jokingly condescending tone.

" Ayanokoji?" The boy with glasses named Yukimura Teruhiko also looked suprised.

Kiyopon turned his head to look towards the other person who was present which was the teacher of Class A, Mashima-sensei.

" Please sit down, Ayanokoji-kun." Mashima said.

Kiyopon sat next to Yukimura.

" I hope the fourth person isn't someone troublesome...." Kiyopon hears Yukimura mutter.

To be honest, Kiyopon felt awkward with these two.

Despite getting along with most people he met.....

It was mostly because they approached him first.....

Horikita was an exception since Kiyopon had approached her first.

But for the rest? Nope.

The door suddenly opened and all three heads turned quickly to see who it was.

Sotomura wore a suprised jojo expression. ( well, he tried to.)

Yukimura looked like he lost his sanity.

Kiyopon simply stared.

The girl with blonde hair tied into a ponytail looked at the three in suprise.

Her face then morphed into one of disappointment.

" You've got to be kidding me...." She mutters to herself.

" Karuizawa-san, please sit down so we can begin the discussion." Mashima said.

Karuizawa sat next to Kiyopon.

' Well, at least Ayanokoji-kun is here....' she thought in relief.

They weren't friends, per say.

But they were both connected to one person and it was none other than Hirata Yosuke.

So neither had felt uncomfortable with the other.

" All right, I will now begin to explain the exam." Mashima said.

Karuizawa immediately interjected, " Exam? Aren't we, like, finished with that already?! Come on! I really wanted to spend the rest of the week in peace!" She said.

Kiyopon wrote in his notebook and showed it to Mashima-sensei.

' I second that.' It said.

Kiyopon was tired of thinking.

He wanted to spend the rest of his summer on his bed....or maybe finding potential names to fill up his notebook.

" I apologize, Karuizawa-san, Ayanokoji-kun. But this is a different exam. So please let me explain." Mashima calmly said.

Karuizawa huffed and crossed her arms.

Kiyopon slightly pouted.

Man, the best friend energy between these two is.....rising.

( Skipping their brief explanation and the reading the outcome thing....)

" If it makes it easier to understand. Think of it as a game of Werewolf. I'm sure you four understand how it is played." Mashima suggested.

" Werewolf huh..." Yukimura said as he carefully read the rules again.

" I see. So a marvelous game of deceit and betrayal?" Sotomura said.

" I guess that makes it easier to understand..." Karuizawa mutters.

Kiyopon looked at all their expressions.

What is Werewolf? He wanted to ask.

He's heard of it before but that didn't mean he had any knowledge about it.

But....should he really risk asking?

It's awkward when the so called genius can't seem to understand something that most people seem to be aware of....

Not like these people were aware of Kiyopon's intellect but still.....

Karuizawa noticed Kiyopon's expression.

" Hey. You look confused. Wait, don't tell me you don't what werewolf is?" She asked.

Both Yukimura and Sotomura also lookrd at Kiyopon in slight suprise.

Kiyopon felt like flinching under their scrutinizing stares.....

If he were like a certain female character....

He'd be shaking non-stop.....and sweating nervously.

" Do you want me to explain it or something?" Karuizawa asked.

Kiyopon immediately nodded.

Karuizawa thought about her words carefully before answering, " So, like, there are two groups of people. The villagers and the werewolves. Basically, the main goal for the villagers is to work together and smoke out the werewolves in their morning discussions. The werewolves main goal is to avoid being found out and kill all the villagers until they are on equal numbers. I think that's enough, right?" She said.

Kiyopon now understood and wrote on his notebook.

' Thank you.' It said.

" Y-Yeah...." she said while averting her eyes.

' Why was that cute? I don't get it!' She thought.

" I'm suprised Karuizawa-san managed to give an explanation like that." Yukimura commented.

Karuizawa instantly glares at him

" I'm not dumb. Even I know how to summarize things like this!" She said.

Kiyopon focused on the different outcomes.

So they were being divided into twelve groups....more specifically, groups that followed a Zodiac sign.

Kiyopon understood that having a VIP assigned to their class was going to be a huge advantage but will definitely hold a ton of pressure.

They'd have to conceal their VIP no matter what.....

But on the other hand, if the VIP were to be on the other classes that will be joining them....

Kiyopon would have to work together with everyone to discover the VIP's identity within the week....

The VIP can also use one of the outcomes that presented betrayal....

Outcome 1 was impossible to achieve, he concluded.

This was going to be a game of wits.

At least....for everyone else.

Kiyopon had a different goal in mind for this exam.

2. Kiyopon about the ways of the gentlemen

The discussion had just finished and the 4 Class D students were told to meet up later in a different room to see their other group members from different classes.

But for the time being, they were free to do whatever.

Karuizawa,Sotomura and Yukimura wore looks of discontent as they strode in the hallway.

Kiyopon was neutral.

Yukimura spoke, " I hate to say this, but if we have to be in the same group, we need to put up a unified front. A lot of things will depend on who the VIP is, but for now, the four of us should discuss things." He suggested.

Sotomura and Kiyopon seemed to agree....

However, Karuizawa took out her phone and began talking to the person she called.

" Ah, hi, Hirata-kun? There was something I wanted to talk to you about." She said without a care.

Kiyopon was suprised by her nerves of steel.

" Karuizawa, are you even listening!" Yukimura exclaimed.

She ignored Yukimura and strode down the hallway quickly and disappeared whilst still on her phone.

" My disappointment is immeasurable...... why was I lumped up with a bunch of space cadets?! " he cried.

The three boys decided to walk together to their rooms.

" This has turned into quite a troublesome ordeal. Being partnered with a bitch like that, I mean. " The professor said.

Kiyopon remembered that the Professor only had eyes for 2D girls.

Kiyopon had seen the different arts of those anime girls sometime ago....

Though he was curious about the eroge type of manga.

He mentioned it to Horikita earlier in their school days and she immediately banned him from it.

Of course, he can simply search in his own time.

In fact, if this exam hadn't been announced....

He probably would've done it by now.

" To be honest, I really hate it. No matter what I do, she'll only drag us down." Yukimura responded with a sigh.

" That is certainly true, hmm? She's an unforgiveable bitch. She's a bitch among bitches, wouldn't you say?" Replied the professor.

A bitch huh....Kiyopon wondered.

He didn't consider Karuizawa a bitch.

A memory from the night where Kushida tried to blackmail him appeared in his head.

She trashtalked everyone she ever encountered that night.

She tried to force Kiyopon's hand upon her breast.

Despite that, he didn't consider her a bitch either.

He categorized her as a person with personal problems.

Besides, Karuizawa hadn't been rude to Kiyopon, anyway.

Or maybe it was because during one year....

A certain person taught him the ways of being a gentleman.

Kiyopon cleared that thought off his head.

Yukimura spoke once again, " Maybe in the morning, there'll be a notification that one of us was the VIP. If one of us is chosen, it'd be smart not to spread it around carelessly. We don't know who might be listening. Let's get to a secure location before sharing info. "

Kiyopon agreed with that plan.

Kiyopon wrote on his notebook.

' Karuizawa may be gone. But we should definitely discuss about tomorrow. We can do it with the three of us.' It said.

Yukimura nodded.

But Sotomura had other plans....

" I am terribly sorry, but I must decline your invitation. For you see, the Love Love Alive anime calls me, and I cannot afford to ignore its siren song! I bid you farewell, Hi-ya!" He said before leaving.

Yukimura's eye twitched.

Kiyopon stared blankly at Sotumura's back as the chubby professor left the both of them.

Yukimura looked depressed.

Kiyopon concluded that there will definitely be no discussion.

He had no choice but to simply wait for Horikita now.

Short chapter for now since I want to re read volume 4.

While I was on an unexpected Hiatus, I already had a plan for volume 4 up to Volume 7

But....now that I'm actually writing again....

My brain refused to cooperate.

So bear with me, yeah?

SadisticPaimon, out~
