THE S-CLASS HERO IS A DELINQUENT

CHAPTER 2

That must have been how the rumors must have spread throughout the institution. However, Yujin had no interest in recklessly engaging in unreasonable fights. It was a rumor that failed to spread alongside what most students and faculty have known of him.

Yujin wouldn’t even resort to fighting or doing any violence unless it is even necessary. But what most of them commonly knew was that Yujin would eventually resort to fighting because he was a bloodlust freak.

It was a label that spread out at the same time for him. At first, he was pissed by it but as time went on, Yujin began to pay it no mind. He just wanted to graduate so that he could move out of the colony and enter Espracta's warzone.

Ever since the warzone broke out in Espracta, Yugin had always wanted to enter the warzone and enhance his skills there. However, his parents were always blocking his plan to do it and told him to just stay away from being a champion. 

Yujin knew what he wanted at that time. However, since he is still under his parent’s supervision until he graduates high school, Yujin has no choice but to actually follow the rules that his parents have set for him. Well, just until he graduates high school, at least.

His plan was to still go there, even after what his parents told him. It’s just that his record for being a delinquent is the only thing that was holding him back from actually graduating. Each school year, Yujin’s common dilemma would have to be getting ahead of his academic status.

Having been famous for being a delinquent, it would seem that Yujin would really have a tough time getting out of the institution. especially when everyone seems to be waiting for him to actually commit violence once again.

Yujin ignored the rest of everyone’s stares and proceeded towards his usual seat, which was at the far corner near the window. Yujin had always preferred sitting in this area, for in this corner he would be able to see through the window, which has been covered with mold, how tragic the reality of life was outside the four corners of his classroom.

It was by far different compared to the lies that this institution has been trying to inculcate in their minds. They wanted to make the students believe that by completing their education, they can freely choose their path according to the skills they are able to master. And such skills would be beneficial for them once they encounter the monsters.

Just the very thought of it made Yujin wince in silence. He thought that if only the rest of his dumb classmates would really understand the situation, perhaps they would no longer even consider coming into this institution like he does.

It's possible that if that were the case, each and every one of them would be aware that the only way to stop violence is through more violence. This has always been the case, even before the era of great dominance came into existence. 

Even before the domination occurred, all humans had already been living in violence. And in fact, most of them knew very well that violence would not be obliterated unless another form of violence had been inflicted.

But since Yujin had been constrained in these four corners of the room, he had no other choice but to refrain himself from doing so, even if at times he just couldn’t help himself from actually making it happen since it was the situation’s calling.

“Ichinose?” The proctor immediately called out to Yujin, who was already busy looking out from the window.

Yujin was so wrapped up in his own thoughts that he completely missed being called by name multiple times. Only when the proctor threw the board eraser at Yujin's head did he realize what was happening. 

Chalk dust instantly spread all over Yujin as a result of it, and it caused him to become furious almost instantly. Thankfully, he remembered that he couldn't attack the proctors in retaliation; doing so would have resulted in further sanctions and a negative mark on his record.

He knew this was what they really wanted to begin with. They really were testing his limits until he finally exploded. And then in the end, it would be him who would be the one to be blamed again.

Since Yujin was already fed up with this constant scenario that has been taking on in his almost daily life, he had already anticipated that the next of this was that he would be sent out of his class.

And so, before that could even happen, Yujin made the exaggerated move by making the heated situation between him and the proctor triggered. 

“Did you throw this at me?” Yujin asked the proctor.

No one among the student body has the courage to even protest among the proctors but since Yujin falls in contrast among them, it’s already expected that he’ll eventually try to fight back right away.

And it was what Yujin did.

“You’re slacking off in my class.” The female proctor’s spectacles flashed a short glimmer after it directly glared at Yujin’s direction.

Yujin walked instantly closer to the proctor while carrying the eraser she threw at him. The rest of the class was clearly beginning to feel frightened of the upcoming scenario that was about to take place between Yujin and the proctor.

However, the proctor doesn’t seem bothered by the behavior that Yujin was demonstrating. She had already been well used with this delinquent, and this wasn’t like the very first time he did this.

It was like a common routine with the likes of Yujin, and she was confident that in the end, she would still prevail over him.

As Yujin stood in front of the proctor, he immediately crushed the eraser in front of his face as he told her, “That’s the tenth one for this school year, I hope you still have enough supplies to last until the end of the school year, bitch.”

As soon as that happened, Yujin left the room without waiting for the proctor to send him out, knowing full well that was the inevitable outcome.

When Yujin was finally outside, he felt nothing but relief. 

It didn't even phase him that he was missing out on the class. Knowing that in the end the institution won't even let a delinquent be allowed to graduate is already pointless for him, so he might as well give up. For him, this place was no better than a free prison.

Even though he is technically free to go wherever he pleases, he still feels restrained from doing the one thing he really wanted to do: leave the safety of the colony and enter the warzone.

Yujin just sighed as he went downstairs to get a soda drink. He was well aware that by doing that, he could be sanctioned again but he still went downstairs anyway to get one from a vending machine.

He paused in front of the vending machine, considering what to drink, before finally inserting a coin to retrieve his go-to beverage, a Venum energy drink. Ever since some of the proctors from this institution started treating Yujin this way, he tried this drink for the first time, and he was hooked.

Yujin made an effort to prevent himself from thinking about it again and eventually opened the beverage can so that he could enjoy it. However, just as he was about to take a sip, he was abruptly jolted out of his reverie by an enormous explosion...
