It seemed like it would be another sunny day in Tokyo.
Standing at the entrance of Shujin Academy, Qian Yi reflected on the difficult journey here. To secure a relatively comfortable spot on the crowded subway, one had to become the "King of Elbowing," ensuring that any who dared to invade his territory were all sent flying, not one left standing!
"Class 2-E."
Holding the class assignment sheet he had received, Qian Yi looked for the teachers' office, planning to report to his homeroom teacher first.
Class E. This was a good class. In Assassination Classroom, the teacher known as the fastest and strongest in history, Koro-sensei, taught Class E. So, upon seeing this class assignment, he couldn't help but hope that his homeroom teacher would be as good as Koro-sensei.
I hope I get a good teacher.
Soon, Qian Yi found his classroom. The moment he opened the door, what came into view was... no, a... no, perhaps it couldn't even be called a living creature, standing at the podium.
How to describe this thing?
It wore a standard, neat teacher's uniform, but on its head was either a mask or its head was just naturally a dog's head. It was definitely not a normal human form.
Qian Yi immediately shut the classroom door and began to take a deep breath.
Calm down. It must be travel fatigue causing me to hallucinate. My world is a very normal, peaceful, everyday world. This kind of species from a neighboring world shouldn't appear here. And even if it did, maybe Talulah mixed some Originium into my milk, causing me to contract Oripathy. How could something that looks like a man but has a dog's head exist in reality?
Qian Yi opened the door again. The dog-headed creature was still there.
"You must be the new student, Qian Yi-kun? I'm your homeroom teacher. My surname is Xuan, given name Shen. You can just call me Teacher Xuan," the dog-headed creature introduced itself.
Holy crap! It's Xuan!
(Translator's Note: "Xuan Dog" is a famous Chinese streamer meme.)
Do you even think you're a teacher?
Qian Yi thought to himself, marveling that a big city like Tokyo would let any creature become a teacher these days. But as a student, he still had to properly greet his teacher.
"Yes, Teacher Xuan. I'm Qian Yi."
"Mm, very good. Come here."
Teacher Xuan beckoned Qian Yi over, then slammed his hand on the desk to quiet the class. He made an announcement to all the students: "Today, we have a new transfer student joining our class. Everyone be quiet. Qian Yi, come up and introduce yourself."
"Hello everyone. I'm Qian Yi, a transfer student from Yasoinaba. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Qian Yi gave his routine self-introduction, immediately attracting the attention of many female students.
"Eh, such a cool-looking handsome guy is in our class?"
"Is the transfer student an idol from somewhere? Can you tell us?"
"He's almost too handsome, it's annoying!"
The students' chatter naturally didn't escape the teacher's notice.
Teacher Xuan immediately pointed out a few of the girls who were chattering excitedly: "You girls over there! You're something else. Is high school a place for you to date?! Chattering away instead of listening. All of you, go stand in the back and listen to the lesson!"
The classroom instantly fell silent.
Teacher Xuan looked the transfer student up and down. Handsome, proper features, a calm demeanor, wearing black-framed glasses—he looked like the material of a good student, apart from his somewhat severe case of white hair.
"Mm, Qian Yi-kun, take a look. There are plenty of empty seats in the class. Pick whichever one you like. You can also choose one of the punishment spots."
Because several students had been sent to stand in the back, there were naturally more seats available. But he couldn't bring himself to take someone's beloved seat, so he chose the one in the second-to-last row by the window.
The back row by the window, the homeland of kings.
Most importantly, he pushed up his glasses.
This position offered an excellent view, allowing him to see the entire classroom clearly. Neither the grade-level director on patrol nor the homeroom teacher on the podium could escape his sight. And most importantly, in case of an emergency, he could always jump out the window to escape.
"Qian Yi, you haven't received your textbooks yet, have you? You can share with Nijika for now," said Teacher Xuan.
The next moment, the sound of a desk moving came from beside him. A yellow-haired girl with a side ponytail sat down next to him, crossed her legs, and placed the textbook between them.
"Hi, I'm Ijichi Nijika! Nice to meet you!" was Nijika's opening line.
"I'm Qian Yi. Nice to meet you too."
"You haven't played an instrument, at least not in the last few years, have you?"
"How did you come to that conclusion?"
"I can tell by looking at your hands. Were you a guitarist or a bassist before? By the way, I'm a jazz drummer! Clang clang," Nijika said, making a drumming motion with her hands.
This woman exuded an incredible aura, one as brilliant as the shining sun. And she was way too friendly!
A social terrorist, basically.
Qian Yi felt he wasn't very good at dealing with such energetic people.
Better check the chat group.
[I Wanna Eat Mei-Flavored Instant Noodles]: Can anyone teach me how to pick up girls?
[Underworld Head-Spinner]: Are you thinking about how to get your hands on Raiden Mei again?
[I Wanna Eat Mei-Flavored Instant Noodles]: No! I'm serious about Mei! I would never lay a hand on her before we're officially in a relationship!
[Child of Prophecy]: That sounds exactly like what a playgirl would say.
[Steel 'Lao Da']: Regarding this question, I think you should try to approach it from Raiden Mei's predicament. The way you are now, you'll never capture her interest. But if you descend from the sky in an attack helicopter, beat up all the girls bullying her in class, and without a word, toss a weapon into her hands and tell her to save Nagazora City and the world with you, trust me, from that day on, she will be your girl.
[I Wanna Eat Mei-Flavored Instant Noodles]: Really? Will that actually work?
[Steel 'Lao Da']: I don't know. You have to try it to find out.
[I Wanna Eat Mei-Flavored Instant Noodles]: Won't she see through it? If Mei finds out I'm just doing this to hit on her, she'll definitely stay away from me, right? Besides, what crisis is there in Nagazora City for me to save?!
[Steel 'Lao Da']: There is indeed a crisis in Nagazora City. Cocolia is artificially creating the Third Herrscher, and the host for the Third Herrscher is Raiden Mei. If you want to raise Mei's affection, I suggest you take her to go beat up Cocolia directly.
[I Wanna Eat Mei-Flavored Instant Noodles]: What?! How dare she turn Mei into a Herrscher! Unforgivable! Wait, that's not right. How do you know so much about my world? And you seemed to know a lot about Utena's world before, too. Who are you?
