Hello, there how's it going. Here's a new chapter for my fanfic and for those asking yes I will update the other fanfic I have not abandoned it.
Chapter 1
The assailant spun her knives in her hands. Kamijou clenched his fist.
He watched her with extreme caution. His mind raced to find the possibility of what her ability was it some sought of high-speed movement or teleportation.
Suddenly the figure disappeared from view. Kamijou jumped forward. He felt something slice through his clothing. It must be teleportation if she had the ability to move at high speeds she wouldn't have bothered to go behind me and would have just sliced through me.
With that deduction kamijou smiled to himself he had a chance.
She appeared right in front of him with a horizontal slash with both her knives. kamijou bent backward and watched as the sharp weapon passed over him.
kamijou snapped back up into position and went in for a punch but it passed through thin air. he stumbled forward a bit but caught himself, he looked up and saw the girl 10 meters away by the entrance of the stairs.
Kamijou clenched his teeth once more. Damn, I was too slow.
The girl through her knife forward Kamijou twisted his body to the side. He turned back and face her and received a stab at his left shoulder. A faint!. Kamijou clenched his teeth to draw his focus away from the pain but before he could he took a roundhouse kick to the side. He slumped onto the railing.
He shook off the pain of the wound. He turned around to find no one there. Where did she go? As if she had read his thoughts she appeared in front of him. A knife aiming for his left side. kamijou swiftly sent a punch to her wrist and stopped the attack. She stepped back and grabbed her wrist in pain.
Kamijou pressed his advantage and delivered a direct hit causing her to fly back into the wall. she slid down and fell onto the floor unconscious.
He took a deep breath to calm his nerves. He grabbed the knife embedded in his shoulder and pulled it out winced in pain. He threw the knife off the railing.
"Damn it, now I have to buy a new suit"
He looked around and found the door he was searching for. He opened the door to see his student collapsed on the floor. Kamijou immediately rushed towards him.
"Suzuki!"
He shook him. Suzuki slowly began to awake.
"Sensei? What are you doing here?"
"I'll explain later if you promise to explain to me what's going on"
Suzuki nodded and he nodded back. Kamijou lifted Suzuki off the ground. They headed outside.
"Before I forget"
Kamijou turned to the side and lifted the unconscious girl. Suzuki's face paled at the sight of the unconscious girl.
"H-how did you-"
He trailed off before he could fully ask his question. He looked like he wanted to say something but stayed quiet.
"Follow me"
Kamijou headed down the stairs with the girl in his arms and Suzuki following close behind. They all got in his car. Kamijou rested the girl on the seat next to him and buckled her in. Suzuki sat in the back. The car ride was uneventful no one talked and they were all silent.
Kamijou pulled up into a driveway and parked the car and they walked to his apartment. He opened the door and let Suzuki in.
The apartment was very average looking. it had the same layout and structure as a dorm room.
"Make your self at home while I go take care of her"
Kamijou headed into the bathroom. Suzuki took a seat on the floor. He rubbed the back of his head it still hurt from being knocked out.
Kamijou walked out of the bathroom and sat crossed-legged opposite him. Suzuki only now realized that his teacher's suit was stained in blood. He gulped.
"So would you mind telling me why I found you unconscious in your apartment"
"Ah yes sorry, it's just that are you okay sensei you seem to be bleeding"
"Oh this I'm fine don't worry about me I'm more worried about what's happening with you"
"R-right, the reason you find me like that was because of gambling"
"Gambling?"
"Yes sir, a while back my friend invited me to a round of cards with his friends and I found out I had a natural gift for it. I started to bet higher and higher missing more days off school until I found myself in an underground gambling ring. It all happened so suddenly and I was so unprepared. I doubted I could win so I-I cheated. They must have found out and sent that girl over to go collect their money back"
Kamijou looked to the ceiling and took in this information. This type of situation wasn't unheard of. He had seen plenty of people end up bruised and battered in an alleyway cause they were accused of cheating. Normally the best solution was to try and give the money back he had a feeling that wasn't gonna be enough though.
He sighed.
"The best way we could resolve this issue would be to ask the owner of the gambling ring if we can just return the money"
"Would that work?"
"I'm not entirely sure but it's the best option I can think of, we could go in guns blazing but that would-"
Kamijou trailed off into his world of thoughts with his hand on his chin. Suzuki blinked baffled at what had just happened his teacher had not only saved him from his attacker but also figured a solution to his current predicament, he was speechless.
"Sensei, may I ask a question"
"Huh, sure go ahead"
"Why are you helping me. I mean it's not that I'm not grateful it's just that most people would turn a blind eye to this sought of thing"
Kamijou smiled.
"Isn't it obvious what kind of teacher would I be if I didn't help my student fix his mistakes"
Something wet ran down Suzuki's cheek. He stood up and bowed.
"Thank you sensei, I promise to make it up to you"
"You can make it up to me by going back to school"
Kamijou stood up and put his hand out.
"Deal"
Suzuki grabbed his hand.
"Deal"
They shook hands. It was their agreement. Kamijou would help Suzuki fix his mistake and Suzuki would go back to school it was a win for both parties.
Suzuki woke up. Kamijou sensei had told him to stay here for the night to avoid another incident. He sat up from his futon and was greeted with the smell of eggs.
"Oh, you're awake. I figured we might as well eat something before solve your problem"
Suzuki rubbed his eyes the sight of his teacher in a torn-up suit wearing an apron was too surreal for him. He shook his head and got up from the futon.
A short bold man wearing a rather fashionable suit and tie sat at his office. He was in his late 40s and he went by the alias of Ice pick.
When he first started the underground gambling job he had seen it more as a business than something illegal. Academy city lacked any place to gamble so he made one. He had started to build up the place since he graduated from school it took 20 years but he had finally accumulated the wealth and power he felt someone of his prowess deserved.
Though currently, things weren't going so well Anti-skill was finally catching on to his scheme, and to add to that some brat had cheated in a game of poker and walked off with 300 million yen in cash if. He had followed the simple protocol to deal with this send some hired help to grab the brat and bring him so he could get his money back. Not only had they not completed their job the brat was now standing in front of him with some random guy trying to negotiate with him.
life just wasn't fair to honest workers.
"Okay so let me get this straight this brat who cheated me out of my money brought you his teacher to come to negotiate with me on me not sending home in a body bag"
"Yes that's the short version, we just simply want to return the money"
Ice pick took a deep sigh.
"Okay, you know what fine. If you return the money with added interest this brat gets to walk away free. On the condition that you have 4 hours to return the cash to me. Because if you don't this brats and you are in for a world of hurt"
"Thank you, sir. I'll make sure my student here doesn't do anything like this again"
The teacher bowed and walked off with his student following close behind.
"Well that worked out better than expected"
Kamijou wasn't honestly shocked at how well this went. It went a little too well.
"Hey, you remember where you put the money right?"
Kamijou hoped he didn't forget.
"Yes of course"
Kamijou was shocked was his luck finally turning around.
It wasn't there. The money wasn't there.
