The door opens and 5 bully students enter the classroom, starting to break the desks.
Reiji: Where is Tufan? Tell me quickly, quickly!
All the students have swallowed their tongues. At that moment, Kaoru, trembling with fear in the back row, starts to sweat. Reiji grabs one of the students by the throat.
Reiji: Look at me! If you don't tell me, I'll strangle you right here! Tell me quickly!
The boy was shaking helplessly with fear. At that moment, Kaoru, trembling with fear in the back row, speaks up with a timid voice:
Kaoru: I-I-I know where Tufan is.
Reiji throws the bully student away, comes to Kaoru's desk with angry eyes, throws the desk, grabs Kaoru by the head, and smashes him against the wall.
Reiji: Look at me! Tell the truth, or I'll tear you apart right here!
At that moment, a girl came running down the corridor.
Miyu: S-s-stop already, Reiji! Nothing happened between Tufan and me! I beg you, don't hurt people anymore!
Reiji: I'll deal with you later, Miyu! Now tell me where Tufan is! IMMEDIATELY!
Blood is dripping from Kaoru's nose, his skull is starting to fragment, and he is losing consciousness. Kaoru's clothes are soaked in sweat from fear. Just then, Miyu kicks Reiji. Reiji is completely unaffected, turns his eyes, which are alight with fire, to Miyu, and throws Kaoru. Then he walks towards Miyu with a death glare, clenching his hand.
Reiji: You despicable slut! I'm going to tear you to pieces!
He throws a punch with his bloody hand. Miyu falls to the ground in fear and helplessly closes her eyes. Tears roll down her cheeks when suddenly, with a loud sound, the classroom wall cracks and a lamp breaks. Miyu slowly opens her eyes and sees Kaoru, passed out and bloody, embedded in the classroom wall. Kaoru took the punch.
Reiji: So, you sacrificed yourself to protect the slut? Come here, I'll slit your throat while you're still alive!
Miyu and the other students in the class start to cry out of fear.
Miyu: Please, leave that boy alone! He is innocent! Kill me, I beg you, Reiji!
At that moment, Kaoru's lips move.
Kaoru: I-I-I wish I were stronger.
Reiji pulls out his knife and holds it against Kaoru's throat. Suddenly, a silhouette enters the classroom and swiftly lands a solid punch on Reiji. Reiji flies to the opposite wall, and the wall shatters into pieces. Miyu is startled.
Miyu: T-T-Tufan, what are you doing here?
Tufan: Miyu, why didn't you tell me that this son of a bitch was your ex-boyfriend?
Miyu: I was going to tell you, but I was afraid you would leave me, my love.
Reiji: My love? I'LL KILL YOU, YOU SCUM!
With his bloody face, Reiji attacks Miyu, but Tufan follows a solid punch with a guard and a kick to his torso. Reiji doesn't stop, attacking Tufan with consecutive right and left hooks. Tufan is slightly struggling and keeps his guard up. Reiji was attacking like a monster, right, left, right, left. Tufan's arm was drenched in blood, his shirt was torn, and his tooth was broken. With another solid punch, Reiji throws Tufan towards Kaoru's desk. Then he shouts to the 4 people behind him, telling them to kill him, and rolls up his sleeves.
Reiji: Everyone in this classroom will die mercilessly! You can't let anyone hear you because the principal and the others are gone, and the janitor is passed out in the locker room!
Tufan: Did you knock him out too, you motherfucker?
At that moment, Tufan, on the floor, is spitting blood. The thugs next to Reiji lock the classroom door, and 4 people pull out their cleaver knives. Just as Reiji, rolling up his sleeves, is about to hit Tufan, Kaoru lets out a terrifying scream and punches Reiji, but it has no effect.
Reiji: Look at the wimp, hahahahaha! Should I cut off his hand and throw it to the dogs in the schoolyard? Or wait, a better idea came to my mind. Come here, I'll kill you by torturing you however I want!
Tufan: Look behind you carefully, motherfucker!
Reiji takes such a solid punch to the head that he flies to the other side, and his face is completely covered in blood. The other 4 bullies attack Tufan.
Tufan: Well, I guess I have to use the Water Style, huh?
He moves his hands like water.
Tufan: Water Style, 2nd Form: Flowing Bullet!
And he easily takes down all 4 bullies, but his breath runs out, and he collapses to the ground.
Reiji: Hahahahahha, 2nd Form? You wimp! Come here, let me teach you real martial arts!
At that moment, Kaoru, crying in fear on the side, runs towards Reiji, holding the Manga that he loved most and which Miyu had gifted him.
Kaoru: Take this! It costs a lot! Please, leave us alone! I'm so scared, please!
Reiji: Shut up, you!
Reiji punches Kaoru, and Kaoru passes out. Miyu quickly runs to Kaoru, takes him onto her lap, and yells at Reiji.
Miyu: DIE ALREADY, YOU FILTH! DIE!
Reiji laughs, ignoring her.
Reiji: I don't think you're the one who can do that, my pretty.
Miyu: What "pretty"? Don't call me that with your filthy mouth!
Reiji: Well, Tufan, let me show you the real style! Fire Style, 3rd Form: Black Chain Strike!
Random Student: No way, that Form! NO! TUFAN, RUN!
Everyone was shocked.
Random Student: Did he say F-F-F-Fire Style 3rd Form? That's impossible! It requires more than 5 years of training and great mastery to learn it! No one in Japan, except for the Masters, can use this Form! Even some Masters can't use it! It's a Style that only Heroes use! There's no salvation for Tufan now!
Tufan: Ice Style, 2nd Form: Dancing Glacier!
Reiji catches Tufan's punch and smiles at him.
Reiji: Do you think such a simple technique would work on me? Huh? I am the son of the Hero Yusuke! Hahahahaha!
Random Student: Yusuke? I knew his father was a Hero, but I didn't know he was an A-Class Hero!
Reiji: It's all over, Tufan! This is the end! DIE!
The classroom window shatters, the entire classroom is destroyed, and a flying robot punches Reiji. Reiji is thrown to the other wall.
Reiji: You are D-Class Hero Bloody Knight! Hahahahaha! So, you came to stop me? But you can't defeat me! Hahahahahah! Now turn to dust!
And an explosion occurs. The classroom is filled with dust. The Bloody Knight has killed Reiji. He comes next to Tufan, quickly throws him over his shoulder, and leaves the scene. Afterwards, the bystanders call an ambulance and the police. The Tokyo Police evacuate the school and take statements from the witnesses. While everyone is receiving treatment, Kaoru was forgotten in the classroom. He started talking to himself.
Kaoru: This is my bitter fate. I am so worthless that I can neither protect anything nor am I remembered.
Silhouette: You must be strong, Kaoru.
Kaoru: O-o-o, what is that sound? Who are you?
The mysterious silhouette smiles.
Silhouette: Kaoru was the name of your favorite Manga character, and I gave it to you. But you couldn't live up to the name.
Kaoru: F-F-Father! This is impossible! You... you died in the war 10 years ago!
Silhouette: Kaoru Takeda, be strong and make your father proud.
Kaoru: F-F-Father, don't go, Father!
Kaoru: Father, I beg you, don't leave me! I'm scared here! Please, Father!
Kaoru loses consciousness and opens his eyes in the hospital.
Doctor: Young man, we couldn't reach your family. Your treatment is complete, but you've sustained severe injuries. You need to stay with us for one night.
Kaoru: No, I can't stay! Let me go! Let me go!
Doctor: This means it's a risk. Are you truly accepting that?
Kaoru: Yes.
Kaoru thinks about the dream where he saw his father as he walks home. His phone rings. His mother is calling.
Kaoru's Mother: You've messed up again! Don't come home! Die in the street for all I care! Your brother will be home soon. Don't you dare call and bother him.
Kaoru's phone disconnects. He desperately looks up at the sky and starts crying. He falls into a fit of weeping and wishes he would die, but his father's words echo repeatedly in his ears. Just then, he randomly turns his head to the right side of the street and sees a Boxing Gym
Kaoru: Father, I will keep the promise I made to you! I will become the strongest Hero, and I will eliminate not just the monsters but also the bullies from this world
