A Second Life..? (A Wmmap X Assassination Classroom Fic)

4. Interesting Fate.

Athanasia and Karma finally turned five.

Today, They were casually taking a walk, wandering about aimlessly, to be precise.

Athanasia suddenly asked,

"Karma-kun, you seem to know everything about me...Ne, how was your past life?"

Karma looked at her and chuckled,

"I never said I knew everything. I just know your name and how you died, noona. And talking about my life, it was nothing interesting till the third year of junior high, which also happened to be the last year of my life."

He died the same day as his teacher. Both were assassinated, but one smiled while dying at the hands of his students who loved him dearly, anticipating this assassination proudly, while the other died while he was caught off-guard. He died by the hands of  someone who killed him for greed, hatred. Yet he smiled too. Only that, his smile was that of amusement and a little disbelief that he was actually dying. Nothing sincere in that.

Ah....How similar yet how different we were.

He mused.

Athanasia, who did not know of his thoughts, asked,

"What?! You were in junior high when you died?!"

He died so young! How!? Why?!

She looked at her twin, he was brimming with talent. Coupled with his hard work, he would have achieved so much if he were alive! Why did he have to die and get stuck beside her in this shitty novel?! (Aoi: actually, his hardwork is his talent.)

However, she did not show pity. Karma-kun was a prideful person. Pity won't help him. Since he was here, she would do her best to accompany him as his big sister.

She puffed her chest as she thought proudly.

"Yeah, I got assassinated."

"I see..." Hearing his light tone, she didn't know how to react. But soon asked him,

" Tell me! To be assassinated, how much more interesting was your life than mine?!" Her eyes were sparkling.(Aoi: if I may say, then more than a hundred times.)

Karma looked at her and couldn't help but wonder who was the younger one here.

He finally opened his mouth and talked about his past. Nothing much, all about his bullying, pranks and his....family.

"And in year 3 of our junior high, we needed to kill an octopus-sensei who could destroy the world." He said.

Athanasia's mouth was an 'O' as she stared at him, dumbfounded.

"S-so, was it some kind of fantasy world or something..?" She reacted a little late.

"Nope. He was the result of a science experiment."

He didn't want to talk more and directly transferred his memory to her.

Athanasia felt a gush of memories in her mind as several scenes passed through.

"Koro-sensei? Unkillable huh? I think you're just a coward."

She saw how the disdainful gaze Karma gave to his supposedly 'unkillable' teacher changed to a sincerely respectful one.

How the whole class was attached to their target.

How dedicated they were as assassins.

How close they were to each other. Heck, she even shipped some of them but that's another story.

She saw how koro-sensei provoked Karma at his results and that worked to change his disdainful attitude towards others, he stopped looking down on people and started taking his opponents seriously.

How, in his last final days, he worked to make happy memories with his students.

How Karma and Nagisa even went to space for the sake of their teacher. Their target.

How their friendship grew strong. How they fought, how they teased each other, how they laughed with each other.

How they cried, when they finally killed him.

Koro-sensei was smiling, even while dying. How he said he was happy to be killed by his students. The last roll call.

Before she knew it, Athanasia's eyes brimmed with tears. 

"Ah..." She wiped her tears with her sleeves but they kept flowing.

Here she was, feeling so bitter, crying over the fact that he died even though she hadn't even met him. She could not imagine the pain of those students who had spent a whole year with him, having fun with him, making memories with him.

"It's alright. We're here in this world, so we should focus forward." Karma's tone was still light with a hint of nostalgia as he put his hands at the back of his head as he strolled with her carefreely.

He stopped and smirked suddenly.

Seeing the sudden change of his expression, she couldn't help but get curious and was about to ask, when she heard his voice in her mind.

"Noona~ why don't we go back now~?"

She was confused but chose to comply.

"Sure."

And they went back to their palace while Karma was still smirking devilishly.

Heh~ how interesting~

He was talking about fate. Their fate.
