CHAPTER 2- 1st semester: mid term exam

"Now then shall we begin."

"What?!" Everyone was shocked to see multiple copies of their octopus sensei.

"Midterm exams are approaching so I shall conduct an intense high speed study session." With that said the copies immediately started teaching each one of class 3-E.

When the classes ended a certain red headed boy noticed that his bespectacled classmate didn't move from her seat.

Curious he approached her.

"O-ku-da-san?" he inquired.

"Ahh.. Karma-kun." replied the startled girl. "Umm.. What are you doing here?" she asked.

With a smirk he said "I should be the one asking you that Okuda-san. The others have gone home already."

"Well.. Umm.. I was planning on studying just for a little bit, I really want to do well on the exams especially in literature." she said with determination clearly visible in her eyes.

To her surprise he pulled a chair and set it in front of her desk. "I'll help you study."

Probably because each one of them have been busy studying for the midterm exams nobody notices that Karma have been spending more time with Manami. Well except their octopus sensei which have been writing at mach20 into a small notebook.

The midterm exams.

Literature exam

"I can do this." she thought Karma has been helping me to study "I can't fail. I will pass!" with determination the bespectacled girl started answering the exam.

Meanwhile

"I wonder how she's doing."

"Did you say something Karma-kun?" the blue haired boy inquired.

No… it's nothing Nagisa-kun."

The results.

"This is my fault. It seems I took this school's system too lightly." without looking into the class Kurosensei continued "I can't bring myself to face all of you."

Then suddenly an anti sensei knife came out of nowhere barely hitting their octopus sensei.

With a smug face Karma said "You sure? If you couldn't face us. Then you could not be able to see me coming to kill you." he added "Judging by my results (total results 494points: ranked 4th out of 186) it's because you taught me to such an unnecessary extent. But I have no intention of leaving this class. Assassination is more entertaining than returning to my previous class."

Hearing Karma's word the class have been lifted from their sour mood and continues with their assassination attempt.

Sometimes later.

"Karma-kun I'm so-sorry." with her head bow down Manami said apologetically.

Karma put his hand on her head and said "You shouldn't be apologising I know you did your best."

With a blush on her face Manami raised her head and said "Thank you Karma-kun."
