"Ah. Boring."
It's boring, hearing what Herman-sensei has to say about the history of Astral Beings appearing and how humans have survived against them.
"With the eruption of Mount Rfuka, Astral Beings sprang up to kill humans for no apparent reason. They only want to wipe out humans from this world, and will continue to do so until they have exterminated them. We humans can only defend with the equipment we have to fight it. The creature is strong, so we have to evolve to be able to fight it. In the end, an organization called the Wlynina Association was formed to fight these creatures. This gives us hope, even we believe that we can win against the creature."
Yeah, he kept explaining that all the time, and I kept moving my feet here and there.
Honestly, I can't stand this. I can't be a good listener because of my stubborn nature. If it continues like this, I'll be restless with frustration. However, I had to speak or do something else to relieve my anxiety.
I raised my hand as high as possible.
"Yes, what is up?"
"I need to go to the toilet."
It wasn't my intention to run away from this class, but indeed I already knew the story Herman-sensei was telling me. Therefore, I no longer need to listen to him and stay on this bench. Because it's boring.
"I also." Fujita followed suit.
"Sorry, Sensei, I also need to go to the toilet."
"Me too, Sensei."
"Eh?" I am surprised.
It's not just me who wants to go to the toilet, they also want to go to the toilet. I don't know what caused them to join in, but they seemed bored with the story Herman-sensei was telling. Because the story has been known since we were little.
This story is about when Mount Rfuka erupted so violently that it caused so many casualties. The world became chaotic because of the volcanic eruption, there was even seawater that became dry because of the volcanic eruption.
Some of the humans who survived tried to survive, but unfortunately, it turned out that the next problem happened after that. Some unrecognizable creatures appeared on the surface of the earth, killing the surviving humans after eating them without the slightest pity.
The being was black, with sharp red eyes. The shapes vary, some are big, some are small like human babies, some are like dogs, some are like mythological monsters. And what's even worse, the being can disguise itself as a human after eating the human soul it eats. The creature is called Astral Being.
Because on the verge of extinction, a man named Prof. Kobayashi Nakano took the initiative to create an organization by gathering the remaining humans. The organization was created and given the name Wlynina Association, which is tasked with fighting these Astral Beings.
Year after year passed, humans began to be able to fight these beings with the equipment they created and found from the debris of the former volcanic eruption. With their human intelligence, many of their creations were created to kill Astral Beings who suddenly attacked.
That's what my father told me from a book when I was little. But there is one thing that until now I have not known, namely humans who have Spiritual Energy.
"You guys are…"
Herman-sensei hit his desk so hard that we fell silent for a moment.
"You just don't want to hear it, do you?!"
"Hehehe…" I laughed as if my intentions had been caught, and so did the others.
However, there is one person who doesn't laugh, that is...
"No, sensei. I want to go to the toilet. I can not stand it anymore."
Seeing Fujita's trembling body, the others and I were just speechless and couldn't even say anything.
"O-Oh… please!"
"Thank you, sensei." Fujita immediately ran after being allowed to go to the toilet.
I can't lie, because my intention was not to go to the toilet, I just wanted to relieve my boredom. So, I couldn't possibly say "I'm in a hurry too, Sensei," like Fujita earlier.
"I also want to go to the toilet."
Hearing a voice from behind me, I was taken aback.
"Ugh..."
"Oh, you're in a hurry too, Yasir?"
"Oh, that's how it is."
Yasir slowly stood up, walked forward and past me, and I was terrified at the sight of him.
Why am I afraid? It was because he had a sinister aura that even anyone could feel. His aura was cold and even his face and voice were cold. He was like a human whose life was unforgiving, or rather, perhaps like a bloodthirsty killer. Therefore, I was immediately frightened when I heard his voice.
But when I saw the yellow stains on his pants, I wasn't afraid of him anymore.
"Pffff..."
Many people held back their laughter as Yasir walked towards the exit.
"Hey, look, that's not it..."
"Ah, right, that's right..."
"What's with that person? His face is scary, but…"
"Pfff... hahaha."
"Hey shut up! He'll find out later."
"Sorry Sorry..."
They talked about the yellow stains on Yasir's pants. The yellow stain looks like something that's liquid, but actually, some are liquid and some aren't. I don't want to go into detail because it's not worth showing. But clearly, the yellow stain stuck to his pants.
"Ah~ damn it!" Yasir suddenly walked with his feet apart, as if he was avoiding something in his crotch.
When he left the classroom, the students burst out laughing uncontrollably.
"Hahaha. That person..."
"Hahaha, I can't stand it. Help me hold this. Hahaha..."
"He even though it's big, still..."
"This is terrible, he must be embarrassed in front of him."
"Oh, that's right. He must be embarrassed to walk down the corridor later."
Even though they laughed at him, but for some reason, my heart didn't want to laugh when they laughed. I was holding back my laughter, but not now. My feelings are mixed right now with a restlessness that I don't know.
For some reason, I suddenly thought of Fujita in that toilet. I have a bad feeling about this, I feel very so uneasy. This feeling is indescribable for me, I don't even know why it suddenly appeared when I saw Yasir coming out of that door.
Strange. This feels weird. Though I don't want to be prejudiced against other people, my feelings say something different. I have a bad feeling, I'm afraid Fujita is going to be in that toilet.
I looked back, right at Yasir's seat.
"This..."
There was indeed a yellow stain on the stool, but there was something else there.
Out of curiosity, I stood up and approached Yasir's seat and found a yellow paintbrush under his desk. And to make matters worse, not only was there a paintbrush under his desk, there was even a dagger there too.
"Fujita..." I ran without thinking after seeing all this.
"Oi, where do you want to go?"
I paid no heed to Herman-sensei who asked.
"Fujita..."
Arriving in the long corridor, I did not see Yasir along this corridor, even though he had just come out of class.
"Lost?"
Disregarding the rule not to run along the corridor, I continued running towards the toilet.
Several swords fell, almost stabbing me, but I managed to dodge by jumping here and there. Even so, there was one sword stuck in my leg.
"Aww..."
But thanks to these boots, my feet don't hurt.
"Hey, don't run down the corridor!"
A voice from above rang in my ears. Someone was watching along this corridor.
But still, I don't care.
My heart keeps getting closer, as long as I run. My mind keeps on to Fujita, I'm afraid he why. My feet won't stop, because I'm a friend of his. My hands clenched into fists, proving that I was ready. My body is shaking, I don't want to see my family die again.
"Fujita... I hope this is just my hunch."
The more I ran, the worse my feelings got.
When I got to the toilet, I was too late and instead kept running forward.
"Ouch… I missed it."
Turning my body backward, I ran towards the toilet I had passed.
"Fujita..."
I managed to get inside and saw this toilet was empty there was nothing there was only a sink, glass, urinal, and doors.
When I checked and opened doors 1, 2, 3, and 4, I didn't find Fujita and Yasir present. But when I checked and opened door 5, I saw Yasir was strangling Fujita's neck there.
"Oi..."
"Hmmm..."
Yasir slowly looked back, like a robot, then stared at me for a long time.
"A-Akio-san..."
Fujita looked helpless, even seemed to have difficulty breathing.
"Oh. It was you, who was sitting in front of me. Why are you here?"
His voice was scarier than the one he had heard in class earlier, and with a look so sinister that it almost made me fall backward.
"Let go of my friend!"
"He is your friend?"
"Yes."
"Hahahaha..."
He laughed, even though there was nothing funny about me. Then he turned to Fujita.
"Hey, he said you were his friend. Do you hear? Hahaha."
"Akio-san..."
My emotions burned when I heard Fujita's voice was so helpless.
I tapped his shoulder.
"Oi, let go!"
"Hmph?" He turned to me. "Let go?"
"Akio-san… I…"
"Why should I let go?"
I didn't answer because I was so emotional.
"You know, he this is my friend. He's the one who asked me to be friends."
Hearing his voice, I immediately turned to him with a surprised face.
"Eh?"
"As a sign of friendship, he must follow the ritual first."
He suddenly removed his hand from Fujita's neck.
"Okay, now you."
I fell silent when I saw Fujita strangling Yasir.
"Eh?"
"Is that so?"
"Yes. A-A-A-A-A… this strangling is incredible."
"Akio-san, do you want to follow this ritual too?" Fujita asked, turning to me.
"Eh?" I'm still confused about what happened.
"Yeah, I thought why, it turns out that Yasir wants to do a friendship ritual with me here. So, I agreed even though I didn't understand what this ritual was for. Hehehe..."
While speaking, Fujita unconsciously strangled Yasir so hard that it made Yasir faint.
When he turned to Yasir, Fujita was surprised and immediately let go of his hand.
"Aaaaa... sorry..."
"Actually, what the hell is this?!" I said, full of confusion. "Why was I worried, huh?! What for, Fujitora?!"
"Fujita, desu."
