Class S: Last Elites Standing (COTE fancfic)

Chapter 55: This war has only just begun

Shinomiya Kei POV 

I don't feel like sleeping yet so I decided to take a little stroll by the woods. 

It really is peaceful around here huh? It's such a refreshing sight to behold. With all the trees, the clear night sky filled with stars. 

"Well since there are no witnesses" I took out my dummy phone which I cleverly hid the entire time and mapped out all the possible isolated areas around the woods, in case I decided to make shady deals with some students who can provide me some extra information from the senpais in particular. 

It took me 15 minutes to map out the place. I mostly calculated all the possible areas that are isolated enough so no one would notice. 

"Alright Kei, by tomorrow, it will be easy pick'ems from here" I said as I decided to go back. 

But something is off, seems like a presence is nearby. Great I can't believe someone managed to follow me at a night like this.  

"Stalking, are we? just come on out now and I'll go easy on you" I said calling out this mystery stalker 

"I guess you really are a genius, Shinomiya-kun but really you know we shouldn't have phones here" A boy crimson eyes showed himself. However, that look in his eyes, it reminds me of Kiyotaka-san but eviler. I went and hid my phone. 

"Well thanks for the compliment but I know exactly who you are" 

"Really now? did Kiyotaka told you about me?" he asked 

"Actually, he hasn't told me anything. It's only just a wild guess but I know that you are Class D's or rather I should say Class C's mastermind. Daigo Haru"  

"Looks like your reputation in this school precedes you. You truly are a genius, but not on my level" Daigo-kun said 

"You think of yourself better than me? don't make me laugh" I said 

"What are you even doing in the middle of the night anyways?" 

"That's none of your business. But since you're here, how about we talk? You know share a few secrets and stuff?" I spoke 

"Sorry, but there's nothing for me to spill, in fact you should be more worried about the president right now and not me" he replied 

"Don't worry, you think Class S isn't capable of taking down multiple threats at once?" I asked 

"I'm aware that almost all of you are geniuses, I mean with people like you. No class stands a chance. Unless they have their own equalizers." 

"That's funny coming from you, besides Class C only has you and Koenji but Koenji doesn't give a damn about what's going on, Class D is already neutralized, Class B only has Hikigaya and even I know he's no match for any of us, and Class A is already no problem despite people like Sakayanagi and Togami at the helm. What makes you different?" I asked 

"Simple, because I came from a place that Kiyotaka once called home." 

"Home?" Wait does he have a history with Kiyotaka-san? 

"That's right, but I won't give you the luxury to figure out everything" he said 

"Underestimating me is the last thing you'll ever do" I said 

"If you want a battle, we can do it now" 

There was some silence until I slowly laughed at him. 

"hehe..heheh..hahahaahahaha" 

"Really? you want to fight me? now?" I asked wiping a fake tear as I composed myself after 

"You must be the biggest dumbass in the world if you think you can challenge me. Besides..."
