Highschool CxC (Cursed Chicken) (SI/WC)

Riser POV

"Okay everyone~, go and get fashionable and go to the gymnasium for the volleyball rally."

Our homeroom teacher was surprisingly Ms. Chouno, the english teacher and also that fabulous woman who reprimanded Ms. Kawakami for always being tired and not dedicating herself as a teacher and then actually praised her for doing special lessons on the side because of Joker's lie.

You would think she was a bitchy teacher or something but she was actually just really dedicated to her students.

"See you in the gym Riser!" Rias waved me goodbye as I exited the classroom and continued to talk to Haru Okumura, a future phantom thief. She told me she got close to her while we were in our apartment.

I don't really know when but she got close to Haru for some reason, she got close to a main character by accident and I don't even know how, was it protagonists attracting protagonists or something. But from what I gathered they bonded over their rich parents trying to control their life.

Well they did have a similar backstory, I don't even know if they are going to discuss their arranged marriage eventually. But I don't think they are close enough for that. Maybe… What do I know? I'm a man and girl talk is not my specialty.

Waiting for a while in front of the gym, I spotted Rias talking with a mild mannered Haru. I can't believe I said the words mild mannered about Haru, she was a secret ultra sadist who likes to inflict pain on those who deserve it.

I still remember how she had a passive aggressive talk with a detective. I can't remember him but he was an adult persona user from the Persona 5 sequel…

"Rias!" I waved her over.

"Haru, this is Riser, the friend I was telling you about." She introduced me quickly to her friend and turned to address me. "Haru was telling me that bad rumors are starting about you, like how you were forcing me or something."

"Nice to meet you Haru." I reached out for a handshake and she gripped my hand firmly, like too firmly. If I didn't know better, I would say she was trying to crush my hand.

She had a cold smile on her beautiful face. Haru has chin-length curly light auburn hair and brown eyes. And currently those brown eyes are looking at me like I was a piece of trash.

I turned to Rias. "Just what have you been telling her about me?"

"What? I didn't really tell her much, you know."

"Then just why is she trying to kill me with her eyes right now?" Like seriously I know Haru was a secret sadist but she was worse than Akeno in my opinion.

"Haru, I told you I don't mind him now right?" Rias placatingly told her.

She turned to Rias and finally softened her eyes once more. "Sorry about that I was too emotional and placed myself in your shoes."

Rias hugged Haru easily, "Mou~ Thank you for caring for me Haru~~"

"Ri-Rias~ I get it, can you let go now."

"Hmm, why can't you be like Haru-chan Riser? Look at her, she's so cute~" This girl…

"Well, I can't pick you up and get you to bed if-" 

She covered my mouth with her hands and hurriedly panicked to go inside the gym.

"Well, it's best to be yourself anyways so let's go inside now and look for the others too."

Fine I'll let her off the hook for now. Going inside the gym I could see all the students inside and at the center was the volleyball court being set up. With injured students moving around skittishly as they prepare the net and take the balls out of the storage room.

They really do look like they have miserable lives don't they. Well, I can relate to them. I was kind of bullied too in school, but never by a pathetic adult man.

And I got over them anyways and got 'real' friends but in this case their real friends would sell them out just to escape this pedophilic monster.

And yes I do have lolis in my peerage but I am a big hypocrite so bite me, at least I don't abuse them like this asshole does. I mean look at Kamoshida.

He's just ordering all the volleyball club members like their slaves and him just looking at them even makes them flinch.

The fear in their eyes is palpable even to outsiders.

But nobody does anything because they don't want to get involved and I can't really criticize them for that. Not getting involved is better for you but as they say the way for evil to win is for good men to do nothing.

Looking around I spotted Ren and Ryuji just hanging out at the side with all the other normies avoiding them. 

They really are the pariah of their year aren't they.

"Hey!" I called out to them waving lazily at them.

"Hey! Uh, who's this?" Ryuji straightforwardly asked.

"This is Haru, Rias' friend and well maybe we should talk a little bit away from these two…"

"Hey why do we have to be excluded from your talks huh?" Rias childishly pouted, you know I just noticed this but she was acting really childishly ever since we arrived in this world.

I mean, I know she can finally unwind and just forget about her responsibilities here but she was acting more childish by the day.

"Rias, there is such a thing as boy's talk that we can only tell those in the know kind of thing." take the hint Rias.

"Ah well, are you okay just talking a little bit away from here Haru?"

"Eh ah, yes I wouldn't want to intrude on them."

"Yeah, let's go talk about girls that these rude boys wouldn't understand." She pushed Haru away from us and stuck her tongue at us like a child. Maybe we should have a talk about her behavior soon.

"So, what's the plan?" I asked the two younger boys.

"Well we were thinking of asking around about the volleyball club members. Maybe if we asked them they would confess and we can petition for Kamoshit to get fired."

"You know Ryuji, that's actually a good plan for you. But you have to remember that these are abused students. I doubt they would confess. They are too traumatized for that. You can still try though."

"But wouldn't they want to get revenge because of all that he did to them?"

"Of course they would. But they fear him even more. What's more if they have told someone about it. And the one they told didn't do anything about it then they would lose trust in anyone ever doing something about it again."

"But-"

"And they are afraid of changing the status quo right now."

"But we could help them."

"I told you I wouldn't stop you, who knows maybe there are some brave ones out there that would tell."

"Will you help us?"

"Haa, fine. Sure, I'll handle the 3rd year students with Rias."

"Thanks dude." Ryuji looked at me with gratitude while Ren, the silent protagonist, just nodded to me.

~~~

"Take this!" A volleyball rocketed out and hit Mishima right in his face.

Mishima is a blue-tinted black haired student who will eventually become a confidant for the phantom thieves. But right now he is nothing more than an abused boy who always has injuries on his body.

"Hey sorry about that, are you okay? Somebody get him to the infirmary." Kamoshida showed his fake concern over Mishima who fell unconscious from his spike.

Some students crowded over the boy and someone actually guided him to the nurse.

"Well, we need a replacement…" He roamed his eyes over the students and spotted me with Ren and Ryuji.

"Hey new kids, how about I introduce you to volleyball huh." He flashed us a charming smile that made all of us just shiver.

But I saw this as an opportunity to actually humiliate this asshole.

"How about it Ren, wanna show this asshole how it's done?" I smirked with the wildcard returning with a full wide smile that actually looked a little creepy.

I've never seen him this enthusiastic about something before.

"Let's go." A smooth voice sounded out.

Now am I going to abuse my six eyes for a simple game volleyball, why yes, yes I fucking will.

Standing up from the ground both of us approached the court and faced the instructor with spiteful eyes.

"Alright then let's start!, I'm gonna go easy on you guys cause you're beginners." He said while he was winding up. Then he jumped and served a ball with his full power straight into Ren's face.

Going easy my ass!, with the six eyes, I could see the ball deforming from the hard strike he did. But to my surprise Ren was already moving to receive it.

But I moved at the last second and received it. The ball went flying to the roof.

"Ren!"

"I know!"

Ren threw the ball close to the net and I jumped and smashed it with the strength of a human with peak fitness and aimed right for his face.

The ball rocketed out with the speed of a bullet and collided with the face of Kamoshida. His body went flying a little as he fell to the ground and collapsed. Surprisingly though he didn't faint but he did get a nosebleed from it.

"Oh no! I'm so sorry about that teach, I'm a beginner and I didn't know how to control my strength. Are you okay?" I apologized to him as everyone surrounded us.

"Sorry Mr. Kamoshida." Ren said quietly.

"You delinquents!, Mr. Kamoshida was nice enough to include you so you wouldn't feel bad and this is how you repay him!" Another teacher, a strict looking one with glasses berated us.\

"Now, it's fine, it's my fault after all. I should have known a beginner wouldn't be able to play properly." He smiled while wiping his bloody nose from a towel given to him.

But I can see the seething look in his eyes as he glared at us and dismissed us.

"Should we escort you to the infirmary Mr. Kamoshida" One of the teachers asked concerned about his fellow worker, or maybe he was sucking up to him.

"No no, the show must go on right? Let's continue the game but let's play against the actual volleyball team this time."

Of course, he would want to play against the team that are actually scared of him and would submit to him. He wants to reassert his power over the students so he would no doubt try to hit them again…

Okay maybe we didn't think this through. I planned to get his anger all on me but it backfired badly… shit. Sorry about this volleyball team. I'll make this up to you by getting this asshole out of this school.

~~~

"So did you guys find anything out?"

After the volleyball rally we went around and asked about the abuse of students but as expected nobody wanted to oppose or even get involved with Kamoshida.

"No, it's useless none of these students would confess, I told you before."

"Well, yeah but I hoped that at least someone would." Ryuji replied dejectedly.

"Well, these students would have trauma because of the things done to them. And it's hard to reach out to one person with that kind of baggage let alone all these people. It's hard to earn their trust to actually have them tell us something… I would know." Rias sadly added.

And she wasn't wrong. Out of all of us she was the one who interacted with traumatized people on the daily. I shitted on her relationship with her peerage before but sometimes it's hard to reach out to someone when you don't know what they are going through.

And even if you did know, you can't understand what they have been through. So I can only praise her that her ball of trauma of a peerage all trust her explicitly. And she did reach out to them.

But just like right now, the other person also has to reach out for you to be able to help them.

"Hey, I hear you guys were trying to poke around about Kamoshida, I suggest you stop." A random student lectured us.

"Huh! And why is that!? If we can prove that Kamoshida is abusing these students then we can finally send him away for good!" Ryuji got heated once more.

"Don't you get it? Everyone already knows what is happening, they just turn a blind eye to it. Just don't make it worse for the volleyball team like you did the track team." The boy turned and walked away.

"Ugh!" Ryuji flinched and looked sick.

"Is that really the only way? No, no we have to do this. If nothing else to at least stop these abuses." The hesitant Ryuji actually doubted himself for a moment there.

Huh… maybe that bad feeling I got was just from this hiccup we got from this investigation? Well there are still some ways we can salvage this.

3rd POV

Those bastards! They did that on purpose. They made me look bad in front of the school. Well they're gonna regret it. I swear that I am going to find some way to get those delinquents expelled. They have no place in my school.

And maybe I can finally get rid of that eyesore Sakamoto too.

He's been opposing me for too long. It's time he gets what he deserves.

But first…

"Hey you!, call Mishima and get him to my office!"

"Y-Yes sir…"

I gotta vent all this anger to someone after all, and who else better but that crying slave I got.
