— monsters in the dark look closely
aren't their naive faces lovely

THE STUDENT COUNCIL OF HYAKKAOU PRIVATE ACADEMY WAS THE FIRST TO KNOW WHAT TERROR YOUR SILENCE BROUGHT. Your intense [eye color] eyes gazed at each and every one of their own, sending but nothing shivers through their own body. It didn't help as much that the afternoon sun was right behind you, making your eyes glow a lighter shade that could either give one a butterfly of love or a moth of despair.

The events before this afterschool meeting felt like a fever dream. They would've chosen to lose all their gambling rights instead of replaying what happened last time. No, they were not exaggerating anything.

All of this wouldn't have happened in the first place if Kaede did not bring up the topic they had left off during the day meeting.

You subtly rolled your eyes before focusing your gaze on the blue-eyed girl standing beside you. Ririka was suddenly on guard, even though it was just one innocent look.  You squinted your eyes, not trying to hide that you analyzed the contained thoughts that go through her mind judging from her expressions and body language.

"You still haven't fully leashed out from the chains of your twin sister's clan," you commented after clicking your tongue.

"I-,," she tried to reply.

"I don't think that is true," she continued with the firmest tone she could utter.

You simply gave her another quick glance before standing. The scraping of the chair beneath the tiled floor grasped the main subject's attention this meeting: Midari.

Midari finally looked up from her gun and furrowed her brows, seeing you so close to the white-haired boy in the room.

You set your frail yet firm hands on Kaede's shoulders. Creating a small thump from the pressure. The officer tensed, feeling your lips and hot breaths nearing his ears.

"What is it that you wanted to tell me?" you whispered to his ear. Although this didn't go unheard by the other members in the room.

Kaede subtly gazed at Yuriko, who did nothing but dismiss his plea and continue to drink her tea.

"I won't ask again," you continued before slowly clawing and putting pressure on the poor boy's shoulder.

His eyes went wide before closing again, trying to suppress a hiss of pain. "According to the recent funds and gamble of Mushibami-san and Midari-san, Erimi Mushibami won a total of 1.2 Billion."

You placed your left cheek against his right, smiling. "Everyone here should follow Kaede's example, so submissive and obedient," you said before slightly rubbing his blushing cheeks against your own.

He looked up to you from his seat with an unfathomable expression. While you just patted his head before departing back to your place. Kaede sighed, feeling his fast heartbeat beneath his chest. Tearing away his gaze from your retreating figure, he felt a pair of yellow-green eyes boring through the depths of his very skull.

Kaede looked back at you and then Midari, connecting all the dots in his train of thought. He looked down and pushed up his glasses before expressing a smug expression. Midari just stared at him full of hatred, the green-eyed monster inside eating her up alive, starting from the core of her heart that beats mainly for you.

"Stop being the green-eyed monster." The pink-haired idol nudged Midari's elbow.

"Literally," she whispered.

"And focus on the meeting. Kaichou, called us here because of you, you know?" she continued.

"Correct," you clapped your hands with a disappointed expression.

"You, Midari, has been going around and causing trouble. Especially for me," you calmly said with your cheek resting on the back of your hand.

"I thought we have cleared this issue this afternoon when I have arrived."

There was a small silence before you questioned. "Why is it that you disobey me?" Your dull [eye color] eyes turning into a bright crimson red. Straightening your back, you set both your hands on the table.

"Is it because of my lack of warning?" you continued. The other members looked at each other in confirmation. Were you actually not pulling a single blow to any of them?

"Or is it because you prefer the previous president over me?" your sweet-talking, effectively hitting both members with one question. The vice president and beautification council president stiffened.

"No, no, no," Midari was quick to decline your assumption.

"Then what is it? Enlighten me," you continued before gesturing your arms towards the gun holder. Your smirk and gleaming eyes are still painted on your pretty face.

"You have done nothing wrong, Kaichou. Please forgive me. I couldn't help it. Gambling just gives me that adrenaline, you know that feeling, right? And M-M-Mushibami-san's branch is specialized in torturing business, which I love dearly. You understand, right? I apologize. I apologize!" Midari rambled all in one go.

Yumemi covered her ears, Runa continued to play her game on full volume, while Sayaka was left in her train of thought. Overthinking if she should step up or let you take care of it. Sayaka stared back at you, trying to predict your next move. Whether you would make this room yet again another battlefield, or will you just resort to psychological manipulating. Obviously, failing, she just sighed and placed a hand on her forehead. You were just too unpredictable.

"It's all my fault, Kaichou. I promise it's not that I don't like you!" Midari concluded.

"I'm glad we're on the same page," you replied. Your regular [eye color] eyes holding the darkest tint of despair there ever was. You slowly but surely raised your hand from your side just right in front of your face. You formed a gun from your hand and pointed it to the wall beside you. The silence felt excruciatingly long and climatic that the scenes that played out after that came out as a shock.

"Bang," you said with a soft yet threatening tone.

Suddenly a sharp bullet passed by Midari's once nonchalant face. The patched member fell off of her chair. Trying to calm her heartbeat after an unexpected gunshot from the open window a few feet beside her.

It has only then dawned at the student council members of what power you hold. The gears finally turn in sync when they realize that the [last name] family (which only consists of 2 members) is above everyone else, including the hundred devouring families.

"A gunshot just from the point of your finger, are you insane?" Midari exclaimed from the floor.

"What? Do you have your own group of snipers or something?" Runa curiously asked.

"Indeed," you replied with an arrogant smirk.

"Sayaka-san, please schedule an official match with Erimi Mushibami. I would take care of this," you demanded before standing up and walking out of the office.
