Baram's Office

Nagisa's pov

"YOU'RE HUMAN! NOT ONLY THAT BUT YOU'RE A HALFLING! SOMETHING THAT WAS CONSIDERED A MYTH!" Baram sensei exclaimed

"A halfling?" I said confused

"A child born from a demon and a human. Since humans were considered a myth, halflings were even more so." Baram said as he paced around the room

"Uhm... Sensei? You, alright?" I asked as I looked at my teacher who was practically slowly going insane but it fell on deaf ears

I went over to where he was, frantically talking to himself. I raised my hands then *CLAP* near his face, stunning him for a while

"Sensei, you okay?" I asked as he was slowly coming back to the land of sanity

"Yeah... YOU SHOULD KNOW YOU'RE POSITION BETTER! NOT EVERY DEMON WOULD REACT LIKE I DID, IF IT WASN'T ME, THEY WOULD HAVE EATEN YOU THE FIRST CHANCE THEY GET! YOU ARE A FRAGILE BEING! A ONE OF A KIND SPECIMEN! EXPLAIN YOURSELF WHY YOU ACTED THAT WAY!"

"Well... I don't know... It might have probably been due to the fact that you somewhat reminded me of someone... And I didn't know you used your bloodline magic on me as well... And... I just genuinely want to ask about that question earlier." I explained

I sighed then bowed my head and said "Baram-sensei... Please don't tell anyone of my status of being a half human to anyone."

"I see... No need to worry, I won't tell a soul. But may I ask? How were you able to almost stab me? It was as if, you were a trained assassin." Baram asked

"It's a long story..." I said with a sad smile

"I have time if you wish to share it." He said with a smile

"When I was still living in the human realm, I went to school and was placed at the lowest class... Class 3-E. A class filled with misfits--"

-Timeskip-

After my time with Baram-sensei, I went home then did my evening routine and went to bed after texting Azz and Clara that I was alright

-Next day-

As we went to school, we arrived at our classroom to see everyone studying hard

After talking with everyone about how to help each other study, only to end the conversation in a sad note as the cruel teacher of ours, gave us a reality check

That if we don't pass, we won't get to spend our break having fun, instead we're going to have to take remedial classes

It was a cruel punishment indeed, as some we're sulking while the others protest. It all came to a stop as we felt something was wrong. We looked to where it was comjng from amd saw Baram-sensei creepily spying on us at the door

Everyone got afraid except for me, at the teacher who was rumored to experiment on students

Kalego-sensei went over to him and fist bumped him

"You look well, Shichiro." Kalego said

"Hello, Kalego-kun." Baram said

They continued talking all friendly which left us all confused

"Uhm... You two know each other?" I asked

"We're classmates." Baram said

They continued their chat until Kalego-sensei went over to Shanx and Jazz, grabbing them by their heads, as the two scream in pain and we're shouting "He can read minds!"

I went over to Baram while the others were busy watching Kalego

"What brings you here?" I asked

"I came here to see if you are fine, even if you're trained as an assassin, It would still be hard to fight against many demons all at once. But I heard, you're having troubles with your studies." Baram said

"Yeah... Even though Grandpa and Opera taught me for a month, it was only some parts of common knowledge and mostly how to defend myself. I got to the library to study some times but it's hard since I can hardly understand what the books are talking about. Making my scores less than... acceptable." I explained

"I see... I think, I can help." Baram said with a smile

-Timeskip-

After reading the picture book, I look at Baram-sensei and said "I understand!"

"Really?" Baram said

"It's so well made!" I said

"I always loved picture books, so I made them as a hobby. I tried showing them to others but they normally run away." Baram said

"It's too bad, that it's hard to make them." I said with a sad smile

"What are you talking about? Knowledge is power and essential in surviving here in the nether world! I'll make more so be sure to read them!" Baram said as he started making a new picture book

I smiled and said "Sensei as a thank you for helping me, I'll show you something in return."

"There's no need for that, Nagisa-kun. I'm happy, helping you with you're education." Baram said

"I'll still let you borrow it as a thank you. My teacher once said that a favor can be dangerous, it's better to pay it back immediately so it won't bite you in the future." I said with a smile

"Then, give it to me when exams are over, so I won't be side tracked." Baram said with a smile

"Okay, sensei."

-Timeskip-

#Same in the anime#

"I have here, your results..." Kalego-sensei said causing majority in the class to shout

"Wait!"

"Let us be emotionally prepared first! This could determine our future!" Shanx said

"Anyways, here are the results." Kalego said causkng everyone to shout "WAIT!" again

"Unfortunately... You all... Passed." Kalego-sensei said causing everyone to erupt in cheers

As we all we're happy on passing the test and getting to enjoy our break, Kalego-sensei shouted out "Shanx, Camui and Garp, come here."

The three who were called we're given a rank up as well as Allocer for being ranked 1 in all the first year

"Nagisa, come here." I heard Kalego-sensei called for me

"Out of all the first years. You improved the most... Earning you, a rank up. Keep up the good work." Kalego-sensei said

... The class fell into silence until

"EHHHHHH!"
