"Whoa, who the heck is that?!"
Issei couldn't help but exclaim out. His thoughts of heading towards the back of the locker room forgotten as he stared in shock at the unreal sight before him.
"What're you talking about I- HOLY SHIT!" Matsuda started out annoyed, before he saw what he was talking about. The bald student looking even more surprised.
"Is that a student?" Motohama had to take off his glasses before putting back on just so what the saw was real.
A seven-foot-tall giant parting the sea of students as he walked towards the entrance. Everyone stepping aside as they gawked at the sight.
He wasn't just tall; he was built as well. The Kuoh Academy's male uniform seem to barely fit around his muscular form, the buttons straining to stay together.
If that wasn't enough, there was the rather intense stare on his face. He wasn't glaring, but he seemed to have a natural frown to his face. The red eyes did nothing to help, causing anyone who crossed eyes with him to quickly look away.
The only thing that wasn't terrifying about him was the soft looking white hair that went everywhere. It was big, it looked fluffy, and it reached his shoulders.
Of which, on his right shoulder, sat a bored looking Koneko Toujou. The School Mascot had a candy bar in her hands, obviously she was eating it. But what happened next shocked everyone that was watching.
She held out an already bitten piece of it to the giant carrying her.
Without missing a beat, he took a big bite. Koneko pulled back the snack and continued to munch on the remains.
Everyone just stared at them, until the two of them entered the main building and disappeared from their sight.
Immediately voices exploded as they all wondered who that was, and just what was his relationship with Koneko Toujou.
"Who the heck was that?! I've never seen him before in my life."
"Did Toujou-chan get a boyfriend?!'
"A new student? A Third-Year? Who is he?"
Rumours were already spreading, all of them wondering about the sudden appearance of the big man and the nature of his relationship.
Issei found himself staring gobsmack at the entrance, silent for a good long while. He turned to his friends, opened his mouth.
"God DAMN. Did you see how fucking jacked that guy was?!"
Only for Matsuda to shout, the bald student looked positively bewildered as he pointed at the entrance "Was that a fucking student, or did a brick wall gain sentience and started walking?!"
Despite their reputation, the gathered students couldn't help but agree with his words. But soon after, they started talking about how he looked.
"He looked like he could pick me up with his fingers."
"Did you see his eyes. Oh they were so… intense."
"I have to know what shampoo he uses for his hair. It looked like he had pillows!"
"That guy had biceps larger than my fucking future!" Matsuda ranted, looking at his hands seemingly in distraught "What kind of work out did he have to do to get that jacked? What are his gains?!"
Both Issei and Motohama looked at each other, before looking back at the bald member of their Trio.
"Okay that's enough talking about how muscular he is Matsuda," Motohama smacked him on the back "Any more, and you're gonna make us think that you're into buff dudes now."
"Ah piss off!" Matsuda swung, and missed, "I just saw a freak of nature, you gotta let me freak out." At their confused faces he continued "I was a jock remember, and I saw a good number of people being buff. But whatever the fuck that was, it's was goddamn unreal."
Issei and Motohama were silent, before they smiled mockingly.
"All it sounds like is that you have a crush on him."
If they weren't too busy talking amongst themselves, the student body would've see Matsuda lunge his two friends, and they would've loved to see the Trio seemingly fight each other.
Soon Issei and Motohama both had to tap out and call uncle when Matsuda caught both of them in a deadly headlock.
"Serves ya right you jackasses." He stood up.
"Whatever prick," Motohama got up from the ground, wincing as he cracked his back "You can keep talking about how big he is, if that makes you so happy."
The two of them entered a staredown.
"I hope I wasn't the only one that noticed that Toujou-chan was on his shoulder," Issei called out from the ground. He sat up "Because I feel like that's also important."
"Augh damn it!" Matsuda threw his head back "That's another thing about him that I hate!"
"His first day at school and he already has Toujou-chan riding him," Motohama pushed the bridge of his glasses as he glared at the entrance "I think we might have another Kiba on our hands."
"Damn," Issei cursed, "that sucks!" He shouted.
And so the three of them continued to curse at the new student, angry at his success. But also angry at his existence, because the last thing they wanted was another smooth talking playboy.
[Scene]
"hello, my name is asterios minos. i am from greece, it is nice to meet all of you."
Everyone in class leaned back as if they had been physically struck by the tonal whiplash standing in front of them.
A tall giant of man, with a body that so muscular that his uniform was straining to be kept on. Tan skin that contrasted heavily with the white wild mane that his hair. And finally a pair of red eyes that seemed to glare right into their souls.
Yet what came from him was a quiet, almost soft sounding, voice.
Even the teacher looked surprised at the soft voice coming from such a tall and imposing figure.
At the silence, Asterios eyes turned towards her. She felt her heart jump to her throat when their eyes locked.
"did I say it wrong?" He asked, once again in a voice that was rather unfitting for his size and stature.
She shook her head "N-Not at all, Minos-san." She turned back to the class "Do you have anything else you would like to say?"
Asterios' eyes swept through the classroom. Everyone that met his gaze seemingly looking away in fear the moment he made eye contact. Only Koneko didn't look away, she only gave a small thumbs up.
He nodded "i am friends with koneko and currently living with her," he started "and i am part of the occult research club."
"EHHH?"
Everyone in class that had been avoiding his gaze immediately looked at him in shock at the new information.
For those that hadn't been at the entrance when he had arrived, the knowledge of them being friends was shocking enough. But to those that did, the added knowledge that were living under the same roof?
Some heads turned to the small girl, who returned their looks with indifference.
"and," there was a pause as Asterios was ready to drop another bomb "i am human."
…
The shock turned to confusion at his words. But none of them could say anything, as there was something in his eyes that caused their words to die in their throats.
"Well," The teacher took a step back when he turned towards her "Wi-With introductions out of the way, I'll assign you a seat." Looking at the class, she was surprised to see Koneko waving to a conveniently empty seat behind her at the back of class.
"It seems that there is an empty seat behind Toujou-san," she turned to Asterios and froze as their eyes met again, she brought up a file between her and the student that was even taller than she was and asked "Is-Is that okay with you?"
He nodded and let out a quiet grunt. Without another word he moved through the class room, before he find he took a seat at the desk at the back of the class room.
Koneko turned around "Sup Asterios."
"hello koneko." He greeted back.
