The Cursed Blade

Consisting is Manifesting

As the class assignment activity slowly came to an end, I looked at the rest of my classmates, a total of 17 students.

Nobody else had caught my attention, and due to my social skills, I was left unable to talk with them.

"Alright, now that you've had your classes assigned, please follow your home room teachers" she gestured at the soldi- teachers, behind her

When exactly did they get there....

The teacher assigned to us was quite.... something...... in comparison to the other teachers

"The hells the mask for?" Ryueen asked the teacher

"It gives me a mysterious aura, doesn't it?" He answered while striking a pose

The class blankly stared at him, perhaps all wondering the same thing

Is this actually an elite soldier of the Demon Slayer corps?

Ignoring the stares, he turned around and began to walk away, towards the school building

"Fufufu, he's quite the interesting monument isn't he?" A student broke the silence

Looking at the source, I met the eyes of a short girl. Her stare was a cold and confident one, and yet her smile didn't waver.

After we locked eyes, she turned away to address the class.

"We'd better start following him. Wouldn't want to be late on the first day, now would we?" She stated as she began to follow behind

Now that I looked at her clearly, she was using a cane to support her strides.

A Demon Slayer candidate, who was physically disabled? I guess when you're out in the real world, you see many strange things

The rest of the class slowly stumbled behind them.

Realizing that I would be left behind, I started my pursuit as well

"It's already a power struggle...Tch" Ryuuen mumbled behind me

Ignoring his words, I looked at the short girl once again. For some reason, I couldn't help but to think that her cane.....

"Alright boys and girls! Welcome to my humble abode!" Our teacher spread his arms out to introduce the classroom

I suppose my wandering thoughts had made me lose focus on the school corridors

"It just seems like a normal classroom" someone commented

"That's because, IT IS a normal classroom!" The teacher struck another pose

"You didn't think that you'd only be learning fighting techniques did you?" He stuck his neck out, closing his face in on the student

"I-I uh- ....no?"

"Excellent! I wouldn't want to be disappointed in you on the very first day" he positioned himself

"Now today is simply a run down of the school rules.... again....." he seemed to droop at the thought of having to re-explain the rules

"Don't hate me for this students! For it was not my choice!" He wiped his tears away with a tissue- or rather the painted on tear drops on his mask

I don't know if it was just me, but his mask seemed to change expressions....

"However! It is my duty to prepare you as best as possible!" He kneeled and shoved his fist to the sky

........

"Now if you'd please choose your seats" he stood up as if nothing happened

This is bad

Really bad

At this rate the other classes won't stand a chance!

I'm sure of it! Whenever that boy came to draw, I snuck in another class slip to make sure  he would be placed in a different class

But now he's in the class with those monsters

If they find a way to work together.....

They'll be unstoppable.

The balance of this years New students is already tipped favorably upon that class

Not only do they have Ryuuen and Sakayanagi, two prodigal students....

They also have two monsters, beings capable of becoming the next pillars!

And not to mention that teacher.....

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

How will I report this!

As the students finally settled in, our teacher looked around, his eyes seeming to sparkle at the view

Now that I think about it, how can he see in the first place? His mask has no eye-holes, only painted-on eyes

"My, my! We have quite the grouping this year! I feel sorry for the other classes"

..... I could've imagined it, but I felt as if he had looked at me when he said that

Though it doesn't matter, apart from teachers, my existence is a secret. Even a teacher as strange as this should know the consequences of bringing my strength to attention.

"We have two prodigal students who transferred in from our middle school sector"

Middle school sector?

"But we also have another strong slayer, one who has been in private tutelage all this time!"

I see, the one he's talking about.....

"HAHA! I knew you would see the greater potential inside of me, after all, I will be the one to succeed my master!"

As suspected....

"How could anyone look down on your strength, after all, you were trained by a pillar. Tell me, how has he been doing these days, Koenji?"

"Well, if I were to use one word.... he's doing very...... -

-flamboyantly"
