As Kelly remained lost in his thoughts, Hiroya glanced at him briefly before huffing disdainfully and dismissing him.
"Come on, Tokito-kun, don't say that. You never know, he might surprise you," someone interjected, trying to defend Kelly.
If looks could kill, Kelly would have died a hundred times over from the withering glares he received from the male students. They ground their teeth, growling at him, while Daichi openly displayed murderous intent. Haruka's popularity surpassed even Hayashi's, making her the most beloved girl in school. After all, Haruka was the most popular girl at school, even surpassing Hayashi. Not only was she beautiful, but she also had a good attitude and a kind heart, which further added to her appeal. When compared to Hayashi who was blunt and uncaring, she give a big boost to her. Both guys and girls admired her like a goddess. The only ones smiling in the midst of it all were Ryutaro who found the situation to be amusing and one other person, although it seemed like everyone in the class simply ignored the latter as if it were a usual occurrence.
"Well, you don't have to defend me, Haruka-san. He's right, hahahaha..." Kelly gave a wry smile to the situation and sighed internally.
As he stood up, intending to put an end to it all, he suddenly froze. A glowing white light started emitting from Agawa's feet right in front of Kelly. The rest of the students also saw the strange light and were frozen in place, their eyes fixed on the mysterious glow. Suddenly, the light formed a peculiar geometric shape. If Kelly's eyes weren't deceiving him, it looked just like a magic circle.
The magic circle continued to glow brighter and brighter, its light engulfing the entire classroom. Kelly felt a chill run down his spine as he witnessed this phenomenon, and almost instinctively, he reached out and took Sumire's hand, attempting to outrun the unfolding event. At that moment, everyone else in the classroom became unfrozen, and panic ensued. Students screamed and scattered in different directions, desperately trying to escape. As Kelly and Sumire neared the classroom's exit, a sudden push from another student caused them to lose their balance and fall to the ground.
"kellyyyyy"
"Shit!!!! Sumire"
And coincidentally Kelly's outstretched hand touched Agawa's feet. When the explosion of light engulfed the classroom, and when it finally subsided, the room was left empty. Desks and chairs were scattered haphazardly, half-eaten lunches remained untouched, and debris from the chaos littered the floor. It was as if time had frozen at that moment, and the absence of people was eerie.
As the silence settled, a strange phenomenon unfolded. A condensed fire began to take shape within the classroom, flickering and dancing in the air. Simultaneously, the earth trembled with an intense earthquake that shook the entire city. Thunderclouds gathered ominously in the sky, signaling a storm of unprecedented proportions. It seemed as if the world itself was on the verge of collapse.
What was happening in that classroom was mirrored on a global scale. Minor natural disasters and calamities struck every corner of the world, as if the balance of the world was being restored. Countless lives were lost in the chaos, and yet, amidst the devastation, no one seemed aware of the events that had transpired within that seemingly ordinary classroom.
Kelly felt like he was getting sucked into some kind of vortex, as he opened his eyes, he could see his whole body. No, that's not right. he could see through his body like it has become transparent.
"What the hell is going on? Did I become a ghost?" Kelly's voice echoed through the darkness, filled with confusion and fear. He frantically looked around, his eyes searching for any sign of life. But all he saw was an abyss of darkness, as if night itself had swallowed the world.
Desperation crept into his voice as he screamed at the top of his lungs,
"Helloooooooo, is anyone there?" His voice echoed back to him, unanswered, intensifying his anxiety. The realization dawned upon him that this nightmare might be all too real.
Suddenly, a bright light pierced through the darkness, banishing the shadows. Kelly's eyes widened as he rushed towards the light, drawn to its mesmerizing glow. As he neared the source, his astonishment grew.
"Huhh, Agawa?" Kelly's voice trembled with disbelief. Standing within the radiance was Agawa, seemingly asleep, surrounded by a swirling array of small light orbs.
'Why the hell is he naked…wait why is he sleeping like some princess…'
Thinking about that to himself and getting over his shock.
"First things first, let's try to reach out to him," Kelly thought aloud, mustering up the courage to approach Agawa. As he drew closer, the unimaginable scene unfolding before him left him speechless. "It's... it's so beautiful, but what are those?" Kelly wondered in awe.
Agawa lay peacefully, embraced by a multitude of small light balls. Some glowed red, while others shimmered in pure white. Yet, among them, two orbs stood out, their golden radiance surpassing all the rest. Kelly could sense an incredible power and danger emanating from them, cautioning him that they were not meant for him to possess.
"Owwwww... What the fuck!" Kelly exclaimed, feeling a jolt coursing through his entire body as he attempted to grab a red orb. It was as if a warning surged within him, reminding him that they were not his to claim.
Confusion filled the air as Kelly gazed upon the mesmerizing display. Amidst the vibrant array of colorful orbs, there was one that stood out, as black as the night sky. Contrary to its expected behavior, it began slowly drifting in Kelly's direction.
"Oh-oh, this is bad. I have a terrible feeling about this," Kelly muttered anxiously. Instinctively, he turned away, attempting to distance himself from the approaching darkness. But to his astonishment, the orb closed in with astonishing speed, refusing to let him escape. In an instant, it collided with him, sending shockwaves through his being.
"Shit, what is this? Ahhh... it hurts!" Kelly exclaimed, writhing in agony as the black orb merged into his body. Waves of sharp pain coursed through his entire being, causing him to collapse, teetering on the brink of fainting. In that harrowing moment, amidst the excruciating pain, Kelly thought he heard a faint voice whisper, "we will meet soon…"
