《Classroom Of The Elite - The White Room's Reveal》Chapter 2: 2nd Generation
Advertisement
Many students were crying. They were supplying a lake with their tears. Some students don't believe the facility exists because of violating human rights, let alone children. We are given a ten minutes break to do whatever we want before watching another. Surprisingly, our hunger and thirst weren't affected, meaning that we didn't need food nor water. And we didn't need to go to the bathroom.
"What the hell is that place?! That's too cruel for a child to be raised in!" Hondo shouted
I saw two Class B students crying and Ichinose was calming them down. Hiyori was thinking and a little bit sad as to what she watched. Ryueen and Sakayanagi were deep in thought. I don't know what they're thinking.
"Ayanokouji-kun, do you know that place?" asked Horikita
I stayed silent, both yes and no would bring me harm, if I answer yes, Class D would show hate towards me. If no, there would be no suspicion thrown to me. The Demonic 4th Generation, which I'm part in, would still be shown later. The safest answer would be silent treatment. Kei was trembling a little because of the horror shown earlier. She must have thought her past was bad, she didn't know the children have suffered more than her. I embraced her, putting her head into my chest, reminding her it was going to be okay.
"Kiyotaka? I'm scared" she said
"Don't worry, I'm here, it's going to be fine"
I said before planting a kiss in her forehead
After that she calmed down, loosened up. I saw Koenji looking at himself in the mirror but I saw him frowning while watching the end parts of the first video earlier. It must have some effect in him. Though this just came to my mind, did the Koenji Conglomerate Group invest their money into the White Room? I can't really expect an answer from Koenji or that man, as if they'll answer my question that easily knowing both of them. After ten minutes, the screen showed.....

2nd Generation
"There are more of this?!" asked Ishizaki
"Can you zip up your mouth Ishizaki?" Ryueen said
"Huh? Yes, Ryueen-san" he said
White Room created themes that will be applied to the other future generations for children to focus on. The 2nd Generation focused on the theme 'Adaptability'. They still focused on things like academics and physical training but they trained mostly on adaptability. This test their flexibility in extreme conditions, they were subjected to being kidnapped as part of their education, being physically and mentay beaten while solving high level math and more brutal training. This curriculum was tougher than the 1st generation. It shows no mercy, some children went mad, some broke down crying, they know they couldn't make it the longer they're here, but they were forced to. This curriculum killed the 100 children faster than the 1st generation while still unable to produce geniuses in their control. Still the investment in this facility was large and still increasing, considered to be the most efficient place to learn, to create many equal geniuses. The man in charge of this created an idealogy which says: 'children raised to be geniuses aren't because of their inherited superior DNA, but the environment they were raised in'. He wanted to create that, geniuses that became geniuses without the help of their ancestral DNA. Someone who was born average but went past the 'genius' line, he had hope there will be someone accomplished enough in this facility to back up his ideals. He wanted children to discard humanity and their emotions just to soar high, he thought that emotions and humanity were useless and not needed for humans. The children of the 2nd generation still had both of them intact with them, they couldn't advance more because of it. They needed to discard, but they kept it while wanting to improve but couldn't.

"This is so confusing!" Ike complained
"This is messed up" Shinohara continued
"That old guy should just die!" a girl in Class D said
"Now now, let's all calm down" Hirata said while mediating the class
The staff were confused why did the man had such an idealogy, wondering if humans could truly discard what he deemed useless. But if they questioned him then a piercing gaze sliced through them by the same man, the gaze that looked like he knew all your secrets just by looking at you, a gaze that could destroy even the most guarded heart.
Many students were scared of those eyes, and honestly this is his light gaze, I know his true eyes when I see it, this isn't his most intimidating stare. I reassured Kei who was right beside me, trembling more than before. I caressed her hair so that she would calm down.
'This gaze, I feel like I've seen it before, could it be?' Koenji thought
'This is familiar, this stare is familiar as if he is the devil father of that monster, when I saw the eyes for the first time on the rooftop I thought I was seeing the devil incarnate himself' Ryueen thought
'My heart is racing, it seems like Ayanokouji-kun's eyes were inherited from the professor' Sakayanagi thought
A scream could be heard from Class D
"I can't watch this anymore!" Shinohara shouted
"Take us back! I don't want to watch this! It's so cruel!" Sato complained while having teary eyes.
It's hard to understand emotions, that's why I removed them back then, but I felt the sudden urge to bring them back after witnessing people socially interacting in New York.

Margrave's Divinity (Rewrite)
Power always comes with a price. Seventeen years ago, obsidian towers thousands of feet tall erupted from the earth near the world’s population centers. Strange magic accompanied their appearance—powerful and inexplicable abilities granted to lucky humans, called Embers for the burning in their eyes. Lyle isn’t lucky, though. When the recently-unemployed college dropout finally manages to get his hands on a Cinder, he is utterly disappointed to find that he will never be an Ember like his father or brother. Before he even has time to process his failure, a strange Ember shoves him through a tear in reality and into the cave of a dragon, where the titanic beast claims to be an ancient goddess of myth and legend. She has a gift for him, but it comes with a warning. War is coming. --- Posting Thursdays and Sundays at 8am Central. Confused about the rewrite? See my letter to previous readers here.
