I don't own anything except for my OC's.

I'm sorry if you find any grammar mistakes. I'm still learning English because it's not my first language.

More days of the November have passed and the Kunugigaoka Junior High School was about to hold what was called the greatest event in the school year. The event in question was the Kunugigaoka school festival. Aside from the normal activities you'd expect from a normal school festival, there was a certain addition this school had to the sports festival and this addition was the showdown of the classes where the classes would compete on whose event will gain the most attention. The event was quite popular nationwide from what David was explained by his classmates as well.

"So that's what's happening!" Isogai finished summarising the events to Koro-sensei who was eating, having summarized this to David who was unaware on how the festival looked like in this school as well as he and Kataoka stood in front of the blackboard which had options of whatever their class could do for the school festival this year, "The people in the main building are really excited about whether or not Class E have enough chance of winning."

"I heard Asano got a contract with a restaurant." Sugino added, keeping his eyes in front of him as his classmates did the same with either worried or blank expressions on their faces.

"Me too. Ashley and Lara told me about it when I talked with them yesterday after coming back to the dorms." David added. He asked himself why this was the case yesterday when he was first informed by it by his fellow exchange students. However, all his confusion was shot down in this moment.

Nakamura rested her head on the palm of her hand "Sounds like something he'd do."

"We have to go in it to win it." Koro-sense declared, raising one of his tentacles, " This battle will involve everything other than assassination and grades."

"Of course we don't want to lose to Class A, but what can we do?" Sugino looked down with a thoughtful look on his face with some of his classmates doing the same, trying to come up with something.

"Asano was right. Customers love a good bargain. You'll need to make something of value at a low cost! Well of course... You have plenty of those!" Koron-sensei explained, getting confused looks and hums from his students as he explained his point to them by showing them whatever eatible stuff could be found in the forest, "That "value" in this Class E is like this, or this, or this, and this! These ingredients are just like you. They're hidden in the woods and no one knows of their value!"

Terasaka grinned in realization, "Attack the customers with hidden weapons? It sure is an assassin's shop."

"Go and sell your many talents as if you're going in for the kill!" Koro-sensei declared.

The Sunday in the middle of November came and the curtains on the school festival war were opened. The main campus was packed on the day of the festival, with multiple signs advertising the different food and events and it included whatever the E Class had prepared for today with the nature ingredients they had found in the forest and had people who were placed on the scouting team bring them here.

All of them were assigned their own job as well, having been given a job which would fit them the most. For example. People like Muramatsu and Hara were assigned to cooking, all of them having their own experience with it with Muramatsu having it from his dad's restaurant while people like Okajima and Maehara were assigned to the scouting team and would be taking care of constantly going into the forest and refilling the food supplies for the meals.

Yada was given her own job as well and her job would be advertising their event at the main campus with everyone having mutually agreed on she would be the best for this job while Terasaka and Yoshida would take the customers to the school building on the small trailers attached to their rest of the class was given a job of serving the customers. David was assigned to be a waiter as well even if he hated the outfit he'd have to wear for it as it seemed like the best job for him when it was put next to cooking and scouting for food. The rest of his friends were given this job as well.

David looked down at his phone, letting out a sigh as he waited with his friends until everyone will start arriving. He was feeling a bit down because he and Ritsu didn't got a chance to hang out much for the last week. Ritsu explained it by being busy with something and it intrigued David a bit even if he was a bit sad over them not having their hangouts for a week. It happened before but it only lasted for a day or two. It was the first time it happened for over a week.

"Dammit...!" He was pulled out of his thoughts by a frustated and tired voice. Placing his phone back in his pocket, he shifted his gaze to the source of it and his eyes widened when he who had just arrived at their school building. His eyes widened because they were the highschoolers from the school trip they had a while back. The leader of the group tiredly grunted out, "...I should stop smoking."

Sugino's eyes snapped open at the view of them, "Ah! They're the high school students from the field trip!"

"What are you doing here?" David asked as Kanzaki grimaced along with Okuda from behind him while Kayano looked angry. Nagisa watched anxiously while Karma smiled.

"Heh." Karma smirked in a dangerous manner almost as if he was daring them to try something again, "Are you going to kidnap another one of our girls?"

"We're not gonna do something like that again. If we do that monster teacher of yours will show up again." The leader explained with frown on his face while his friends looked worried. He picked up a pair of chopsticks, smirking darkly and broke the sticks apart, "But, we can ruin this for you even without using force. Example, we could scream that this food sucks balls and spread the word on the internet."

"Ugh..." Sugino exchanged worried glances with David and Nagisa.

"Hurry and bring us food!" The leader snapped at them to get going and the servers wasted no time and got to work. Before he and his friends knew it, they got served the main dish the E-Class had to offer.

"This is out menus main dish, acorn noodles." Okuda nervously explained to them what the dish was.

"OOH! It looks delicious!" The chubby high-schooler exclaimed while shaking from excitement, "Hey Ryuki can I also have the Mont Blanc for dessert!?"

The other friend with ginger hair pointed at the menu with drool coming out of his mouth, "I also like smoked fish!"

"KNOCK IT OFF!" The leader now named Ryuki screamed at them with a frustated look on his face, "YOUR STUPID IS SHOWING!"

"Kind, sir." He shifted his attention away from his friends a second later and glanced at David who stood next to him with a sweet smile on his face. Almost too kind for his tastes, "Could you please indulge in our meal and show us what you think about it?"

"Can you stop with this act? It's creepy..." Ryuki told him as David continued to smile at him in a sweet manner with Karma nodding his head in approval in the distance. He shifted his attention away from him a second later and glanced down at his meal. He tried it a second later, intending to vomit it out while David moved away from him. A second later his eyes widened in shock at the sudden burst of flavour in his mouth. Gold sparkled were all around him like the flavour in his mouth, as he started to cry, "It's...IT'S DELICIOUS!"

Fuwa smirked, "Originally we were going to do a more impressive reaction shot but sadly there's already another cooking anime that's called dibs on that."

Nagisa frowned at her in confusion, "Uh, what?"

"Don't talk about this show. Please." David told Fuwa upon making his way to them with his expression growing a bit disturbed.

Fuwa shot him a questioning look, "Why?"

"Let's just say my friend described it to be a mixture of porn and food. That's all you need to know."

Fuwa crossed her arms, "What else should I talk about? Euphoria or Boku No Pico?"

"You know what? Stick to..." David's eyes widened in realization with his expression growing more disturbed, "...Wait? Don't tell me you actually watched this?!"

Fuwa kept her arms crossed with her expression growing more confused, "What's up with this reaction? Didn't you tell me you're into internet horror?"

David shot her defensive expression, "Hey! Everyone has their limits! Including me!"

"Guys..." Nagisa sweatdropped at their conversation.

"Tastes nice, huh?" Muramatsu smirked at Ryuki's gang when he walked past them, "It took me a week of research to get to this point."

"This is ramen but...I've never tasted anything like this!" One of the highschoolers exclaimed, slurping on his noodles while his friends ate their food as if their lives depended on it.

"It was really difficult working with ingredients that all have strong flavours," Muramatsu explained. "There are the acorn noodles in Tonkotsu soup I obtained after searching for the ultimate balance in flavour."

"It has a miraculous flavour but because Muramatsu made it his main selling point, his terrible cooking, will be crushed." Itona commented, sitting by the table behind Muramatsu and eating the noodles while he watched a portable screen.

Muramatsu glared at him, "Shut up, Itona! Get back to work!"

"I want to eat the rest!" One member of Ryuki's crew shouted, trying to pick up what to eat next with his friends.

The ginger haired boy drooled out of his mouth, "What the hell is this Ta-Magotake? I've never had anything like that!"

"YOU IDIOTS!" Ryuki shouted at them, "You have to say it tastes bad!"

"Eh?" Bitch-sensei asked softly, causing them to glance at her, "It tastes bad?" She leaned down and pouted at them. "Oh, my...do the things my students made not suit your tastes?"

"WHAT A HOTTIE!" All the boys looked at their with hearts in their eyes, having nosebleed at the view of her.

Ryuki shook his head, "No, absolutely not, it's incredible!"

"Really?" Bitch-sensei asked in a sweet tone as she traced the picture on the menu with her finger, "Then how about a delicacy made from persimmons and loquats. It's skin is as soft as mine."

"B-but, eh, my money..." Ryuki stuttered out, sweating nervously as Bitch-sensei touched his cheek with her finger.

"There's an ATN at the station." The blonde haired young woman leaned close to his ear and whispered sweetly, "You can pull out all the cash you need."

"WE'LL BE BACK SOON!" Not wasting any time, Ryuki and his friends bolted down the hill to find the station.

Bitch-sensei waved at them, "Ok, I'll be waiting for you."

"We've sold another course." Nagisa commented, watching them bolting down the hill with a sheepish look on his face.

"Yup." David nodded at him while Kimura and Takebayashi watched from the roof with Koro-sensei.

"We have Yada attracting customers at the base of the mountain while Bitch-sensei is conning people at the top. The master-disciple combo is frightening." Kimura commented.

Takebayashi's pushed up his glasses with his brow furrowed, "But even though we don't have many customers we're doing well considering our location."

"This is still the first day. The duel begins now." Koro-sensei stated, "We have Sugaya's poster. Okajima's pictures of our product. Hazama's descriptions on the menu. Mimura's special home page and finally our peculiar ingredients will attract customers interest."

Itona climbed on the roof with his portable screen, earning their attention and quickly informed them, "I'm continuing my reconnaissance. In terms of attracting customers, Class A is winning."

The grand hall of the main campus was alive. Lights flashed in rhythmic patterns, illuminating a fully equipped stage where idol singers performed with the charisma you'd expect fromt hem. The aroma of a buffet wafted through the air, drawing an eager crowd to the dining area. Customers lined up, their chatter blending with the music as they admired thedishes. The scene perfectly showed the excitement of the school festival.

"Asano!" A group of lowerclassman girls gushed when Gakushu walked by with the other Big Five.

"It's good to see you here I'm really happy you're enjoying yourselves." Gakushu smiled at them while the other four of the Big Five were exchanged looks with each other as they followed him. "We have several events the theme of which changes every hour. We were even able to hire famous comedians and idols for free. The seats are divided into two sections. Once the performance on the stage is finished we close one partition and let the customers then we immediately start the next performance on the other side of the stage."

As Gakushu spoke and led the group backstage and walked into a quieter hallway, guests wandered from the buffet to their seats, their laughter and conversation melding into the background music that played during breaks in the live performances. On the stage, an idol group finished their high-energy number, greeted by a wave of cheers and camera flashes. Behind them, technicians worked swiftly to adjust props and sound equipment. As all of this happened, the glasses and the fatso watched everythingfrom the other side enviously.

"Ugh! They're going wild on the other side." The glasses commented with envy evident in hos voice,

"There should be a comedian on the other side, oh man, I really want to see it!" The fatso stated upon taking a look at the schedule. Not wasting any time, the two boys rushed to go to the other side.

"No choice then." The glasses stated, taking out some money from his pocket, "I'll go out, pay 500 yen, then go in the other side."

"They're gonna keep on squeezing money out of this at this rate." The fatso stated as Gakushu and the rest of the Big Five made their way to the backstage where Gakushu was tuning his electric guitar.

"Once they start to feel their curiosity satisfied, we make things more interesting. Well then, it's our turn now. "Get ready while I warm up them up with 2 or 3 light music songs." Gakushu stated, getting up from his seat with his guitar in ready as he glanced at the rest at the rest of the Big Five. He made his way onto the stage a second later and started playing loudly, blasting some chords as the girls started to scream loudly all the while the other four from the Big Five watched from the backstage.

Seo crossed his arms with an annoyed look on his face, "No seriously, is there anything he can't do?"

"I know..." Araki agreed with him with his schock filled eyes set on the stage.

Koyama looked over his shoulder, letting out a sigh. "To be honest it's disgusting how good he is."

"He's good." Araki stated with a thoughtful look on his face, "But remember he's not infallible."

Koyama pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, "Well he sure isn't going to lose to E Class, I guarantee you that."

Seo scowled. "That'd be a nice change of pace, I'm sick of seeing our leader get his butt kicked by those friggin nobodies."

He's not the only chosen one at this school." Ren stated, putting on a base as he reminded his the rest, "I mean, after all we learned our instruments between study sessions too."

Araki smirked, holding some drum sticks, "What do you say we get out there and back him up!"

"Yeah!" Seo cheered.

The atmosphere in E Class's restaurant was subdued as contrast to whatever was going on at the main campus right now. Although a few customers had shown up, the common dinning area still felt spacious and calm with most of the tables being empty and waiting for the customers. The sound of the few people at the restaurant having their conversation filled with the room and this noise was mixed in with whatever the students who were outside were doing right now.

"Hey are you there, Nagisa?! We came to see you!" A familiar female voice rang through Nagisa's ears when he was taking an order from someone. He looked over to the source of it and saw Sakura running towards the old campus with Matsukata, the school helper, and the small school children behind her.

"Sakura-chan! Matsukata, everyone from the park!" Nagisa smiled at the view of them,

"Heh." Kataoka smiled at the view of what just happened as Sakura walked over to Nagisa, "So you continued to see them, Nagisa."

Nagisa nodded in confirmation with a smile on his face, "Yeah, I go and teach them stuff every now and then."

"Well. He didn't have any other choice after I asked him to be my personal tutor." Sakura explained, blushing with a smile on her face.

Maehara walked over to them, "Good business strategy, with this bunch we'll make volume alone."

"Yeah, right." The small boy behind Matsukata muttered at the view of Maehara.

"He's the enemy of all women." The spiky-haired boy pointed at Maehara.

"Sorry we don't have deeper pockets, but we're here." Matsukata smiled. Soon enough, he and everyone fromt his place were seated by the table and were served their own portions of food. He tasted the noodles shortly after they were given to him and smiled at the taste of it, "Oh, this is superb."

Sakura smiled shortly after tasting their own portion, "Something this good will sell a lot."

"...This is a difficult battle for us." Nagisa replied, letting out a sigh as he looked down while Sakura frowned, "Even though we've made something good, it's difficult for us to advertise it to a lot of people."

"I see..." Sakura smiled again. "Don't worry, you and everyone else have a mysterious power."

"Indeed. If you do things right today, I'm sure word will spread." Matsukata added as Nagisa looked at them with thoughtful look on his face as they started to leave once they had finished the food. Those words continued to fly through his mind even after Matsukata, Sakura and everyone else who came with them left the old campus, wishing them luck in the festival. He turned away a second later, moving into the old school building.

David watched Nagisa walk past him, letting out a sigh as watched Nagisa walked into the school. Just as he was about to follow him, he was forced to stop in his tracks by a familiar male voice, "Yo! Any places for us?"

The exchange student smiled a bit, having instantly recognized this voice as he shifted his gaze to the source of it and saw Kevin, Lamar, Keith, Lara, Ashley and Matt walking towards him. He stepped closer to his fellow exchange student with his smile staying on his face, "Guys! You came!"

"We told you we'll try to come. Don't we?" Kevin smiled at him.

"We couldn't have passed the opportunity of seeing you dressed up as the waiter as well." Lamar added with a playful smirk on his face.

"Trust me. It's still better than having you taste whatever I would cook." David replied playfully as he led his fellow exchange students to the nearest free table and all of them took their seats by it. All of them took a look at the menu a second later, slowly making their choices on what they should eat.

"David. Are you coming or not?" Nakamura's voice rang through David's ears a second later as David and his fellow exchange students turned in the direction of it and saw the blonde haired girl walking towards them.

David sighed, knowing what she was talking about, "Can it wait a moment? I'm in the middle of..."

"Don't worry, David! We'll take care of it." Kanzaki came in David's aid with Okuda a second later as both of them gathered around the table and prepared themselves to take orders from David's fellow exchange students. Kanzaki did her best to ignore the way Lamar and Keith directed towards her as she stopped between them.

"Alright. Thanks." David nodded at them gratefully and pushed himself into walk towards Nakamura as he set his attention back on her, "Alright. Let's go."

Keith raised his brow at him, "Why are you leaving with her, man?"

"Yeah. Is she your girlfriend or something?" Lamar smirked at David playfully as David stopped in his tracks and looked at him with a confused look on his face while Nakamura looked equally as confused by this statment.

David kept his confused look on his face, "What?"

"You heard me right." Lamar confirmed it with his smirk refusing to leave his face, "Did we interrupted your festival date or something?"

David shook his head, "No. Me and Nakamura are just friends. We are not interested in each other like this.

"Yeah. Even if we were interested in each other like this, David prefers AI anyway." Nakamura added, blurting out the AI part by accident as David glanced at her with an alarmed look on his face while Kanzaki and Okuda panicked a bit. She chuckled nervously a second later.

Lamar raised his brow in confusion, "AI?"

"Guys. Can't you just shut up and order? I'm starving." Matt cut the conversation shut as Lara and Ashley nodded in agreement. Lamar and Keith looked at them sheepishly while Kevin chuckled.

David used this chance to make his way to Nakamura and looked at her with a deadpanned look on his face, "I prefer AI, huh?"

"I'm sorry. It just came out." Nakamura apologized to him with a sheepish look on her face as the two pushed themselves into walk towards the school building. Her apologetic expression quickly turned into playful one, "But you didn't deny this, though~."

"W-What? Shut up! Let's just go talk with Nagisa like we planned!" David grew a bit flustered by this, getting a chuckle out of Nakamura as the two walked into the school building and pushed themselves into walk where they thought they'd find Nagisa. As they continued to walk further into the school building, he felt his heart pounding more against his chest at the thought of this and it left him more confused.

The two wanted to talk with Nagisa now because both of them wanted to apologize to him. After everything with Nagisa's mom went down and the two found out where Nagisa' girly looks came from, the two felt extremely guilty over all the times the messed with him and joked about his girly looks and mutually decided to go to apologize to him after having a conversation with each other about it shortly after Nagisa's mother visited their school.

They walked into the room where they saw Nagisa cleaning something a second later and Nakamura called out to him with a guilty look on her face, "Nagisa. We know why your hair's so long. I'm sorry I unknowingly made fun of you...did I hurt your feelings?"

"Yeah. I'm sorry about for it as well, pal." David added with an equally guilty look on his face as Nagisa turned around to look at him and Nakamura, "If I knew about it from the start, then I wouldn't have joked about it."

"Don't worry! I'm not mad at all!" Nagisa smiled at them in a sheepish manner, "As long as it either of you or Karma doing it, it's fine."

Rio smiled in relief, "I see. I won't tease you about it anymore."

"Yeah. Me too." David added as Nagisa smiled in appreciation.

All the magic of the moment died down a second later when someone shouted from outside, "HEY!"

"Oh, crap, I know that voice!" Nagisa exclaimed in his mind, his eyes widening in horror as he tensed up. His worst worries were confirmed a second later when he turned towards the source of the voice and saw a smilling Yuuji walking towards the school building.

"HEY, NAGISA!" Yuuji waved at him with a giant smile on his face, "I CAME TO SEE YOU!"

Nagisa paled in an instant upon laying his eyes on him, "GEH! Yu-yuuji!?"

"Yuuji?" Nakamura aksed with a confused look on her face.

"Wait..." David quickly realized who Yuuji was with a smirk slowly starting to form on his face, "...Isn't that the guy from the island?"

"Yeah! That's the one!" The guy who confused you for a girl and fell in love with you when we were on the southern island." Nakamura smiled upon realizing who this was from David's words. She and David exchanged glances with each other and smirked, knowing what to do next.

Nagisa looked out the window at Yuuji, "H-How did you know that this was my school?"

"Ever since that day I've been searching the names of the hotel's guests." Yuuji chuckled as Nakamura crouched down, moving towards his pants and David blushed at what he was seeing right now, glancing away from Nakamura and Nagisa, "And I found your school's homepage when they were advertising the school festival!"

"I- I see..." Nagisa cringed a bit as he glanced behind him and saw Nakamura changing his lower clothes, "Wha-? Hey, Nakamura—what the?—STOP!"

"Hoo-boy..." David muttered under his breath, doing his best not to glance at Nakamura as she switched her skirt with Nagisa's pants. Even if one part of his mind was telling him to take a look at her. Nagisa's pleadings fell deaf on her ears a swell as she had taken off his trousers off and replaced them with her skirt, making the blue haired boy lower his head in irritation.

Rio grinned wickedly, adjusting the pants on her waist, "Okay, I promise this is the last time for real."

"WE JUST HAD A CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS!" Nagisa pointed out as he glanced at her with a frustated and embarassed look on his face. He glanced at David a second later, "David! Tell her something."

David shook off the embarassment from earlier as smiled devilishly at his friend, "...Well, it would be nice to say goodbye to this with one final dress up."

"SERIOUSLY?!" Nagisa exclaimed.

"He's rich, right?" Nakamura whispered to him with a sly expression on her face as Nagisa frowned, "We don't have any other choice, we have to increase the average amount of money we get from customers."

"Yeah. Just think about this, pal. Think how much money you will earn into our cause. The money, Nagisa. Think of the money." David added, having the same expression as Nakamura right now as Nagisa sighed, blushing in embarassment.

"Take one for the team, Nagisa. The fate of our class now falls on your serving skills." Nakamura pulled away from Nagisa with a smile on her face as she kicked him out of the window towards Yuuji.

David nodded in agreement, "Yeah. Just imagine it's Kayano in his place and it will be all over soon."

"K-Kayano?" Nagisa stuttered out in confusion when he was pushed out.

After a rather awkward and embarassing reunion for Nagisa, he took Yuuji to the more private space in the bushes out of everyone's view as he didn't want anyone who knew him to see him with Yuuji like this. If Nagisa was honest with himself, he hated every second of the situation he had just found himself in and him seeing David and Nakamura leaving the school building and making his way to him and Yuuji didn't make this any easier for him.

"I'm so happy I came to the school festival!" Yuuji smiled widely as he sat opposite Nagisa behind a pile of leaves while devouring the noodles faster than he could chew, "To think that you would serve me personally. Also I'm really excited because you told me to go to eat in a place where no one else can see us.."

"I just don't want people I know seeing me like this." Nagisa thought to himself with anime tears streaming down his cheek. He looked up a second later as David held up a cue card saying "Nagisa: I want you to eat all of my favourites – read it!" from behind the bush. The blue haired boy clasped his hands together, trying to act cute all the while looking like a puppet, "Uh, you know what I want? I, uh, want you to eat all of my favourites!"

David grinned, pulling the cue card out of Nagisa's way and leaned down to look at Nakamura, "The plan is in motion."

"Great. That fool has a lot of money after all." Nakamura whispered back to him, hiding behind the bush with David as Kimura looked at him questioningly. David handed her the cue card as she added, "He also looks like someone who likes to eat."

"Yup. It's an easy money." David nodded in agreement as Nakamura smiled at him and handed him the next cue card. He went up a second later, holding the cue card out for Nagisa to see and saw Yuuji carefully choosing the food items from the menu while Nagisa waited for him to choose with a pen in his hand.

"Ah, I stopped smoking that strange thing you know?" Yuuji told Nagisa, "So you wouldn't worry, Nagisa."

"I see." Nagisa replied in understanding as Kurahashi came over with a tray of food, causing Nagisa to look up.

"Here you go!" She told them in a sweet voice, giving the tray to Yuuji and walking off to leave him alone with Nagisa.

"This looks delicious as well. Let's take a picture." Yuuji admired his food as he pulled out his phone and took a picture of it with it. Nagisa looked up a second later and saw showed himself up in David's smiled and pointed at the sign which read, 'Ask him if he's willing to pay 10,000 yen for a date.' while David and Nakamura's laughter could be heard in the background. Nagisa instantly shook his head at him, knowing how this was crossing the line by a long shot.

"This is a present for you, Karasuma. This mountain's full of interesting things." Nagisa and Yuuji shifted their gaze to the source of the voice and saw the Red-Eye the assassin came out from the bushes with a gun and a dead pheasant in his hand and a smile on his face. Both of them spat out their food in an instant upon seeing him.

"Red-eye?" Karasuma looked surprised to see him, "They told me the Reaper got you."

"It was on the verge of death at the time." Red-eye shrugged his shoulders, "But I was able to heal fast because of my youth."

"More importantly, put away your gun!" Karasuma pointed out with an annoyed look on his face.

"Calm down, man." Red-eye replied wth an amused look on his face, handing the bird over to Hara. "I have a valid hunting licence for all countries in the world."

"Wow, a green pheasant!" Hara exclaimed with a smile on her face, "I can grill this up in order to make some soy sauce for the noodles! "Thank you, You're from our school trip, right?"

Yuuji looked over in shock. "Why does he have a gun? Maybe we should call the police..."

"WAIT-WAIT! I-It's not how it looks. He's..." Nagisa stopped him from dealing with the number on his phone as David held up another cue card which read, 'Yoshioka-san from the local hunting club.'. He quickly repeated what the sign was saying to Yuuji, "Y-Yoshioka-san from the local hunting club."

"YOSHIOKA-SAN?!" Yuuji pointed at the man in disbelief. "HE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A JAPANESE GUY, YOU KNOW?!"

Nagisa smiled nervously, "H-he changed his name because he likes Japanese anime so much..."

"I...I see... Well, putting Yoshioka-san to one side. Nagisa, I want you to be honest. What do you think about me...?" Yuuji asked, blushing when he voiced his question as Lovro appeared from the bushes, making both him and Nagisa scream.

"And you too." Karasuma's voice rang through their ears again, "Don't erase your presence in times like this."

"I was invited here by the octopus." Lovro explained.

Karasuma sighed, "I see. I'm happy to see you're still alive and well."

"This might sound a little rude." Lovro smirked. "I still can't believe one of your students managed to talk him out of the assassination stuff and made him go dark."

"I had a hard time believing it when he told me what went down as well." Karasuma nodded in agreement, "Your disciples was really worried about you, go see her."

"Indeed." Lovro agreed, having had intentions of talking with Bitch-sensei.

"Who the hell is that frightening old man...?" Yuuji asked with a frightened look on his face, "He's really not a normal person..."

Nagisa turned to where the cue card was being shown and read off what was written on it, "He's mild Yagi-yuu. The leader of the Asakusa entertainment hall."

"HE'S A COMEDIAN?!" Yuuji turned towards him with disbelief written over his face.

"A-and the thing they were talking about was also a joke." Nagisa smiled nervously while holding up his hands, "His disciple became a teacher here and she stopped being a comedian..."

"...I see." Yuuji stared at him blankly for a long moment before his eyes wandered away towards the common area where he saw a bunch of shady looking customers with some wearing sunglasses and trench coats while others had scars or strange looks on their faces. He looked over at Nagisa questionably a second later.

"T-THEY'RE ALL COMEDIANS! FROM ASAKUSA!" Nagisa desperately tried to explain himself to him. He pointed at Grip who ate some mont blanc and then spat it out because of the spice as Karma appeared behind him throwing a wasabi tube up and down, "You can see his natural comedic reaction taught to him by mild Yagiyuu himself! You could say that we're related to those comedians in some way..."

"Nagisa-chan You're lying..." Yuuji's glanced at Nagisa with narrowed eyes as Nagisa stiffened, "My old man is a big famous tv chairman." So I've seen the faces of many comedians drawn close to him since I was a kid Therefore, I'm able to discern and exterior smile done only to deceive people. When I met you in the island's hotel you weren't the kind of girl who's smile like that..."

Nagisa looked down with a guilty look on his face, "...You have some really good skills of observation..."

Yuuji sat down on the ground, letting out a sigh, "It's not something 'good'. It's just an undesired talent I got from being raised in a disgusting environment!"

"It's just like you said, I was lying. I have been forced to look like this since I was a kid." Nagisa told him, touching his pigtails as he stood up from the ground, "And I've always hated that." David and Nakamura exchanged glances with each other as the two listened curiously from behind the bushes, "But lately I've come to understand that even if you have a talent that you don't want, it can still be useful to people."

The bluenette dusted his knees off and sat crossed legged with a smile on his face, "So I stopped hating that part of me. I'm sorry...but I'm a guy."

Yuuji needed a moment to process this information, "...You're lying."

Nagisa smiled at him in an apologetic manner, "It's true."

"...You're lying." Yuuji tried to deny this.

"It's the truth." Nagisa sweatdropped as Nakamura took the cue card away from David and held up a sign reading, 'show it to him', with a picture of an elephant at the bottom. Nagisa's eyes widened at the view of it as he quickly composed himself and smiled at Yuuji again, "Do I look like I'm lying?"

Yuuji looked horrified, "...Are you for real...?"

"If you're able to exploit your faults and weak points, they can become weapons as well. During my time in this class, I learned how to do that and we created this shop in the same people you see here are related to that way of doing things. It makes my heart race, and I really enjoy myself." Nagisa gave him an explanation, smilling as Yuuji stared at him in shock for a while until he turned away and stood up. Nagisa instantly reached up for his wallet, "Hey! W-wait. I'll give you back the money you spent while I was deceiving you."

"It's fine. I feel like an idiot. I'm going home." Yuuji replied in a blank tone, walking away as Nagisa watched him walk away sadly as the wind blew some leaves away.

Karma rushed into his view with a maid costume in his hand a second later, "Eh? He's going home already? I thought of trying to make more money by turning this into a cosplay event."

Nagisa looked at him with an alarmed look on his face, "Karma. How much money do you plan on earning by exploiting me!?"

The second day of the festival came and the students were slowly making their way up the mountain, intending to reach their school building where they'd begin the second day of the school festival. If all of them were honest with each other, the mood between them was rather grim and nervous as they couldn't compete with whatever Class A was doing right now even if they still did reasonably well on the first day.

"Ah, we did reasonably well on the first day." Kurahashi stated as she walked up the forested path with David, Nagisa, Rinka, Kouki and Maehara.

"And this is the last one. The bulletin board of sales has been put up in the main building already and I don't think we can compete with Class A with this rate." Kouki added, letting out a sigh as Nagisa looked down with a worried look on his face. Something grabbed his and his classmates attention as second later.

"Hurry up!" A male voice screamed as Kurahashi, David, Nagisa, Rinka, Kouki and Maehara glanced behind them and saw a reporter and a cameraman rusheing up ahead.

David raised his brow in confusion, "What the hell?"

"...A television crew?" Kouki asked with a confused look on his face.

"Why are they here?" Kurahashi questioned, looking ahead.

Rinka frowned, looking around the bushes, "The only thing over there is Class E..."

"Only one way to find out." David asked as he pushed himself into run after the reporter and the camera, wanting to know the answer to this and his classmates quickly followed him. Upon reaching the top of the mountain, all of them froze in shock as they noticed a massive line of customers going all the way from the school building to the forested path.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Kouko and Maehara exclaimed in shock as David, Nagisa, Rinka and Kurahashi stared silently in shock.

Kurahashi pushed herself out of her silent state, "Are they here for our shop?"

"Just how?" David asked with his eyes refusing to close.

"What's the difference between today and yesterday?" Rinka wanted to know..

Fuwa rushed over to them and held up her phone where Ritsu was on screen, "Guys! This is incredible! Rumours about our shop spread on the internet like wildfire!"

"After searching for a bit. I found the source of the rumour It was Norita Yuuji. He's currently the most famous gourmet on the internet." Ritsu explained as she brought up Yuuji's blog. His profile read, 'I'm the offspring of a very rich family. If you're interested in a shop, no matter how cheap or expensive it is, just tell me, I'll fly all the way over there to tell you what I think.'

"Due to the fact that he ate a lot of high-quality food since he was a child, his taste buds guarantee quality even if he doesn't like that talent much," Fuwa added as Nagisa gasped in shock, "He has a lot of requests where they donate money to him to go around eating stuff."

Kataoka showed up out of nowhere a second later and shoved Nagisa and Sugaya forward to make them do their job, "Come on now! Hurry up and prepare the store!"

David leaned against the wall behind him, letting out a tired sigh as the second day of the school festival came to an end with the sun slowly going down. This day was exhausting to say the least due to how many customers he and his classmates had to serve today. He never wondered waitress and waitresses at the crowded festival felt until now, but he was certan about one thing. From now on, he was going to respect them much more.

He allowed himself to take a glance at Yuuji's blog when he was having a short break during today's day of work as well, curious what he had written there to make them gain so much attention. Upon reading what was written there, he wasn't so suprised by the attention anymore as Yuuji wrote about how he found delicious found at their old campus and how his visit there, mostly Nagisa, changed his world view and how he was going to use the money which his father was spoiling him with to help the other people.

David shook his head, having brought up the article again on his phone as he couldn't believe this turn of events. If someone would have told them what will happen today because of the guy which he and Nakamura tried to exploit to earn more money for their class, then he would have been very skeptical. Either way, he was not going to complain about this as he knew how beneficial it was for him and his class.

The article vanished from his phone a second later as Ritsu showed up on his screen, "Reading it again?"

"Yeah. Just can't believe how everything worked out in the end, you know?" David nodded in confirmation.

Ritsu smiled at him. Her smile faded away from her face a second later as she shot him an apologetic expression, "David. I'm sorry we didn't got a chance to hang out much for the last week and it put a stop in our Supernatural watching. Especially since we reached such a crucial part in the tenth season. I won't be able to hang out together after school today because I'll be busy again and I'm sorry for that as well."

David brushed it off, "Don't apologize for it. Everyone gets busy with the stuff that they need to prioritize from time to time. Even if they're an AI like you."

"I see." Ritsu's smile returned to her face as David smiled back. She looked really cute whenever she smiled like this. She told him a second later, "I have some good news, though. Whatever I've been busy with for the past week will be done after the festival and we'll be able to hang out more than before after this."

David felt a bit excited by this, "Really?"

"Yup. I wish I could tell you what it is, but I'm not really allowed to talk about it." Ritsu explained, "However, you'll find out what it was right after the festival."

"Alright. You have my attention. Looking forward to t." David smiled at Ritsu as Ritsu's smile grew at this. The two stared at each other like this until David felt his cheeks heating up a bit, making him glance away from Ritsu with a confused look on his face as Ritsu raised her brow at his behavior.

"This is bad!" Okuda's voice cut their conversation short as David and Ritsu glanced at her and saw her showing the box of nearly empty noodle, "We're almost out of noodles!"

Isogai placed his hands on his hips, "Well, we're getting a lot more business than we expected."

"But A-Class is probably doing better!" Fuwa declared, looking at the ranking.

"The eggplants on the side menu are selling really well. We can try to push this for the rest of the time." Hara explained, holding up a large knife and eggplants as Okano and Kimura, who were both covered in mud, panted for breath.

"We can keep getting more ingredients if we just go farther on the mountain." Kimura explained.

"Hhmm. No, let's not." Koro-sensei who was disguised as an acorn on a desk made a cross with his tentacles, "I think it would be best if we don't make any more moves here."

Nagisa looked at him with a suprised look on his face, "But then we'll lose!"

"That's all right. If we take any more food, we might disrupt the mountain's ecosystem." Koro-sensei replied as Kurahashi nodded in agreement, "Birds, plants, fish, fungi, arthropods, mammals. Everything done by a living thing becomes a blessing in destiny." He stood up from his hiding spot and made a curve with his tentacles all the while his students had their eyes on him, "During this festival, were you all able to feel just how greatly this mountain's destiny blessed you? People who've taught you. People you've helped. People you've caused problems for. People who caused problems for you. And people you've fought as rivals."

Okano smiled, rubbing her neck, "Figures. Looks like his goal today was to teach again."

"Man. I really wanted to win though..." Muramatsu smiled grimly as Yada, who was outside the school building, was closing the restaurant after all the customers left.

She looked around when she heard footstep, "Sorry! We're all sold out so we'll be closing now!"

"...Really? But you were quite popular." Yada's words died in her throat when she saw who had just arrived at her campus because she just laid her eyes on Nagisa's mom.

She wasn't the only one who noticed this. Everyone else quickly took notice of this as well. David and Ritsu noticed this after glancing out of the window and everyone immediately gathered in front of the window to glance at Hiromi with their expressions showing suprise in some way. David, Sugino, Kayano, and Karma tensed up and exchanged wary glances with each other while Koro-sensei observed them with interest.

"Here." Nagisa placed a cup of grape juice in front of his mom. "It's our last cup of grape juice. Trust me it's good."

"Thanks." His mom sipped the juice and began to speak to him with a hesitant look on her face, "I saw you guys on TV. Your class is something else. I think I get why you wanted to stay here so badly."

Nagisa sat down opposite from her, "...Yeah."

Hiromi looked down as she began to voice what she had to say to him, "...Nagisa. About what happened here the other day. When you protected me...and beat that miscreant in an instant. When I looked at your back. I realised something. My son and I are two totally different people. And you got all that power sometime when I wasn't paying attention..."

She looked up with a hesitant look on her face a second later, "But...Nagisa. Please at least stay with me until you're an adult. After that, you can live however you want. I mean, I finally feel like I'm your parent." She gripped her cup tight. "So at least let me worry about you for a little while longer."

"...Of course!" Nagisa smiled as his classmates smiled who were all watching the scene out of the window smiled at the scene, feeling happy for how things turned out for Nagisa. In the end, even though Class E didn't beat Class A in the ranking of the festival due to them not having having their restaurant on the last day of the festival, they still gathered a lot of positive attention from the rest of the class and it felt like a win to them.

I'm so happy I got this chapter out so soon. The next chapter like I already promised will show some original stuff and it is something I know I will like writing and something I hope you will enjoy :)

Hope it wasn't that bad. See you in another chapter.
