Chereads / Reborn: Demon Sword Saint! / Chapter 10 - Punishment

Chapter 10 - Punishment

"WHAT IS GOING ON!!? WHAT ARE YOU DOIN-- URGH! WHAT'S THAT STINK!??" It was barely a moment after Marsha made her declaration of challenge essentially against every noble-born student when a muscular and tall demon man with small bull horns charged into the classroom.

It was understandable why people would make fun of his name sounding like an anime character!

That was because... He even looked like the famous antagonist who even had a meme based off of him - the one that started with, "Is there an XXX character stronger than Uchiha M*****..."

He had long hair, an imposing frame, a super stern and serious character and his eyes were not red, instead they were filled with concentric circles - "a congenital birth defect", or so he explained to others!

His first reaction when seeing the mess his homeroom students had made was to rush in and holler at the top of his lungs, threatening to shatter the windows from his booming roar.

But the moment he caught a whiff of the foul smelling liquid, he gagged and pulled out a white lacy handkerchief to cover his nose and hastily backpedalled all the way to the entrance.

Not missing the opportunity for revenge, Andromeda immediately shouted from where she sat, forcing out her voice through the pain of a broken, bleeding nose, "Wakabayashi sensei! Boo hoo...! The, the new girl... She instigated the hooligans to bully the three girls and, and..."

She furiously winked to her lackeys, signalling for them to be scapegoats and that she'd make it up to them per the usual.

"...And when I tried to speak up, she, she..."

She burst into crocodile tears as she wailed like a baby, "...She broke my beautiful nose...!!! What am I going to tell my father...!!! I don't want the school to be shut down! Wahhhh!!!"

Yet as she covered her face with her hands in mock tears, she was sticking her tongue out! In her mind, she was already posing in victory - she would make sure that bitch got expelled! Served her right for daring to touch her face!

"Oh... Ohhhh... Ohhhhhh! Is that right...?" A less than impressed Uchiha sensei asked sarcastically.

It was then that Andromeda realised her mistake - she had chosen the wrong session to pull this move on, for Uchiha sensei didn't give a f*** about politics or even the well-being of the nation!

According to rumours, the only reason he was here was because the principal and him went back a long, long way and had fought in the last planar wars together. As such, he was just doing his old pal a favour in coming here to teach a bunch of snot-nosed brats in his free time!

And so Andromeda began to tremble as she faced the glowering wrath of Uchiha sensei and his famed military disciplinary action based on his motto of Aku - Soku - Zan! Evil, I immediately, slay!

They were both sent straight to the principal's office, together!

* * * * *

'What a strange man... If he's such a bad-a**, why doesn't he just discipline students with his fists...? If it were me, I'd have just done a 100-hit combo and knocked that bitch to kingdom come!'

Marsha was irritated as she trudged along behind Uchiha sensei. They were headed to the principal's offices to face his decision on their punishment - Marsha for violence in class and the lackeys for school bullying and Andromeda for both inciting the bullying and lying to a teacher!

'His power levels are off the charts, almost on par with Lance Undine, the weakest of my 3 top disciples! He's obviously a seasoned warrior, hmm... Impressive... I'd love to spar with him... Well, at least when my physical state is up to par... Right now I doubt I'd survive even a stray LOOK from that guy...' Marsha was pumped up and full of eagerness for battle, but bided her time. There was a long way to go before she could think about fighting such apex powerhouses in this world!

But she was hyped up and excited - looks like she didn't have to look very far to find a good match!

Meanwhile, Andromeda was biting her lip so hard that she had drawn blood! Her brow was furrowed so tightly that it looked like there were a valley across her face, crossing down the line of her nose and down to her upper lip. The beautifully fair skin of her face was totally blackened as she seethed with rage and embarrassment - and it was all because of this bloody hateful transfer student!

And this was only on the first minute of her entering the class! How much worse would things get afterwards...?

'No... No!!! There's no way I can study with her together in this school! I don't care what Papa thinks! It's either he uses all his powers and connections to oust that bitch, or I'm quitting! It doesn't matter how much he wants me to join this school and win over the backers and supporters - it's impossible! Utterly impossible for me if that bitch isn't put in her place!'

And so the group of boys and girls finally arrived outside a pleasant and orderly room, warmly decorated with flowers and various other homely ornaments.

In fact, the metallic walls and severe architecture was almost unnoticeable behind the cosy decor; it was so nice that one could almost forget it was the office of a mighty leader of the education world and a great warrior in his own right, Principal Neil Anders Regis Unglaus!

Marsha was impressed as she noticed that Uchiha sensei did not need to pass through a secretary or anything - the principal apparently was such a humble man that he did not have any helpers, he managed his own work himself and practised an Open Door policy!

So they walked right through the waiting area where there were long comfy looking cushioned benches on either side of the room and up to a door where the initials "N.A.R. Unglaus" were printed.

Despite being old friends with principal Unglaus, Uchiha sensei still politely knocked on the closed door and waited for permission before opening the door.

It was only after a couple of seconds that they heard what sounded like a scribbling of a pen stop before it was put down, then a brash and passionate voice that had mellowed with age call out.

"Please, please, feel free to enter. I'm so sorry, I forgot that the last visitor had closed the door! Come on in!"

Upon hearing the permission, Uchiha sensei reached out and twisted the handle of the old-fashioned door knob and pushed it open, revealing a large, well-lit room with a full wall of windows overlooking the Osaka coastline. The homeroom teacher then shot a cold and dangerous glance at the students behind him and signalled with his eyebrows for them to enter.

The students all gulped and were very hesitant to move, but were going to comply anyway when they saw a golden-haired figure march confidently right past them and walk straight into the room!

Seeing Marsha take the initiative to enter so quickly, Andromeda's heart skipped a beat as she was afriad that the transfer student would beat her to the punch and steal her chance to explain herself! Andromeda nearly tripped over her lackeys as she shoved them out of the way and rushed into the room - hot on Marsha's heels!

But she needn't have worried about Marsha painting her in bad light. In fact, she was greatly shocked at what she heard and saw the transfer student do next - shocked and delighted!

"Hey old man, what's up? You look terrible you know, you should get more sleep! Your back hurts right? You been jacking off too often? What, wife died or something?" The gangster-like girl had sat on the corner of the principal's desk without permission and spouted out some pretty intense rubbish!

And she was met by incredulous looks from both Uchiha sensei and principal Unglaus who exchanged a glance, wondering just who the hell this audacious and rude girl was!
