VOLUME 2 Chapter 8: The Rookie Who Rocked the Hall.
" I agree with Lady Tsukishiro....I think it's best if we had another Instructor take charge of the orientation."
" Hmm....I see." Kenshin stroked the chin of his helm as if actually thinking it over. He pointed at several other students in the crowd in succession yet, like those before them, they all agreed with Tsukishiro one way or the other.
" What about you though...." He finally pointed far up into the crowd. Everyone followed his hand as well.
' Huh?!, Why'd he ask her?!' Hitoshi's eyes widened when he saw who Kenshin had pointed at.
" Me?...." Aiko who wasn't expecting this raised a brow in surprise.
" Yes you, get up I don't have all day.."
" Tell me, Do you think it would be better if someone else took over the orientation proceedings?."
" I–"
" Is there even a need to ask her?" Before Aiko could speak, Tsukishiro suddenly spoke up, her frost filled voice was heard throughout the entire venue. " Can't you tell who she is?, What's the useless bastard daughter of a traitor got to do with this. Isn't it obvious her opinion shouldn't even matter in the first place."
' Traitor.... bastard?. What's she talking about.' Hitoshi turned to Aiko who suddenly turned silent before focusing his attention on Tsukishiro.
" Aiko Aoi....Heiress of house Aoi and daughter of the traitorous Dark Knight who betrayed the kingdom and our lord the almighty demon king and chose to side with the heinous hero." Tsukishiro who's voice was already cold suddenly seemed to have turned even more hostile the moment her eyes landed on Aiko.
" What are you even doing here!, You actually dare to show your face here after everything your useless father did?"
" Wouldn't hiding away somewhere in a dark hole be more fitting for someone from a traitorous house such as yours—"
" Hey!, That's enough!" Hitoshi stood up. His eyes glaring at Tsukishiro.
" And who are you?" Tsukishiro was taken aback when someone suddenly interrupted her, moreover it was a student she didn't notice nor could she tell his noble backing.
" And why does someone like you deserve to know..." Hitoshi snapped back, his eyes looking fierce. At first he was taken aback by Tsukishiro's words but the instant he heard her cursing at Aiko for something he heard she didn't even do but something her own father had done....his deep buried memories of his own father suddenly surfaced.
Thinking that if anyone were to blame him for what his wicked father had done, how could he ever sit still and take that... even if he was still greatly traumatized and fearful of his father it didn't mean he would sit still and allow another to treat him the same way.
" Y..You...do you know who I am?!"
" Shove a sock in it!" Hitoshi snapped, his harsh voice unconsciously made Tsukishiro to flinch.
Ignoring her, Hitoshi cupped his hands to his mouth and called out loud enough for the whole hall to hear:
"Please forgive us Instructor-San, For the record, I for one don't have the same thoughts as this idiotic fur brain over here!" He said boldly that Kenshin who was on the stage as well as everyone within the orientation venue, heard him.
Dead silence surfaced. No one expecting that. Some students even had their eyes widened in disbelief.
' Did he just call Tsukishiro-Chan an idiot?!'
' Just who is this boy?!'
' What noble family could he be from to have such gall's?!' most of the students began murmuring amongst themselves.
Hitoshi on the other hand wasn't done. He pointed accusingly at Sayaka, puffing up his small chest with righteous fury. His nostrils flaring.
" As you can see, She's just some spoiled rich girl who thinks the world has to dance when she snaps her fingers!"
Gasps echoed through the hall yet, Hitoshi didn't stop.
" Just from watching her, you can tell she's got several problems and a couple of screws loose!" Hitoshi pointed a Tsukishiro before rotating a finger beside the side of his head.
" Even if they don't wanna admit it, I'm sure most of us here can see that she definitely has a big mouth and no manners! Probably never got scolded at home even once!"
Sayaka's icy gaze narrowed dangerously, but Hitoshi charged on, full of youthful recklessness.
"You didn't do anything wrong, Kenshin-dono! Like I said before, I think your entrance was amazing!"
" It's her that's just mad 'cause you didn't act all fancy and stuck-up like she's used to!"
Some students started chuckling under their breath. Others looked mortified.
Even the spirit in the cage snickered softly.
"And besides—" Hitoshi threw in one final jab, "—how dumb can you be to judge someone before you've even seen what they can do? That's just... that's just plain dumb!"
Sayaka's expression didn't twitch, but her three silver tails bristled visibly.
Her slender fingers, pale and elegant, clenched tightly at her sides until her nails bit into her palms.
'This... this was supposed to be my moment,' she thought furiously, her blue eyes burning holes into the front of Hitoshi's forehead. 'I was going to stand tall... gain the admiration of these peasants... show my worth among the session's fools...So why?!'
She had planned it all. First to subtly criticize the lax instructor, raise doubts about the Academy's standards, appear noble and increase her reputation amongst her peers and yet stay just within the boundaries of what could be excused. Even if the matter reached the executive board, at worst, she'd get a light slap on the wrist. Nothing more.
Her family name would protect her. Her father's influence would shield her.
It was a perfect plan, no, It should have been perfect.
And yet. This nobody... this low-born mutt dared to ruin everything. Right before her eyes.
Sayaka's lips twitched violently. She wanted to attack, to shut him up before he dragged her down even further, but—
Her body froze the instant faint ripples of magic graced her fingertips.

A chill, like winter slipped down her spine, gripping her. In that moment, Her instincts screamed.
Slowly yet stiff, her gaze drifted toward the source.
