Return

In the Arts Club, Red had now changed to drawing portraits of people. He spent his time drawing various people in the Arts Club.

While returning home, he encountered Mayumi in the elevator.

"Mayumi... why did you confirm that stupid rumor?" Red asked helplessly.

"I did what I thought was right. You shouldn't hide from your feelings Red." Mayumi replied.

Red shook his head. "I really don't have any feelings for Rin. My cousin is always over analyzing things. I felt complicated about it because I was disappointed how Rin began ignoring me. Rin and Aito are happy together, I am happy. The reason I was conflicted about it was because in the process I lost my friend in this school."

Mayumi suddenly felt that what Red said made sense. "Indeed, his cousin was really over analyzing everything." She thought to herself.

"So you don't like Rin in that way?" Mayumi asked.

"No. I don't have feelings anyone at the moment." Red said calmly. "As far as Rin, I think she has made it clear that she doesn't want to associate with me and I have made my peace with that."

"But didn't you tell Aito... I understand, you didn't wanted him to not think of you as a competitor." Mayumi realized.

Red smiled and nodded. "Anyway, tomorrow after school, get your stuff ready. We will leave after school ends for the mountain temple."

Mayumi nodded. But then she stopped. "Be careful tomorrow. Goutou is returning to school."

"Well..." Red shrugged as he walked into his room.

He walked in to see Lupa frustratingly grit her teeth as she was playing the game.

"Are you still blindly trying Lunatic mode? I suggest you start from easy and get a hang of the game first. " Red advised, but Lupa was too arrogant to pay any heed.

He ignored her and began packing up his camping gear. Lupa saw that and was curious.

"Are you going somewhere?" She asked.

"Un, I'm going out to camp. I'll be back on Sunday evening. I've bought you ready made bentos from 7/11. Just microwave them and have them." Red said.

"Ugh..." Lupa lamented.

"Stop acting like a spoiled girl. You are older than me, yet so shameless." Red sighed. "If you don't like these things then learn how to cook in the future."

"You...!" Lupa flared up.

"What I? You've been living like a king expecting me to act like your butler! Don't tell me you want me to quit my plans because you are too lazy." Red scolded.

Lupa was speechless, but after thinking about it, Red was indeed right. She had gotten too used to Red servicing everything for her. She suddenly felt guilty.

"I'm sorry..." Lupa said guiltily.

"It's okay..." Red replied with a gentler voice. "I apologize for raising my voice." Red shook his head and went back to packing.

However, his inner voice was laughing. "Good girl. You finally realized how much dependent you became, now you feel some guilt."

The next day, Red came to class early. The only reason was because Goutou was supposed to return today.

And like he expected, when Goutou returned, he saw Yui sitting beside Red. He immediately lost his mind.

"Red, you bastard! You stole my woman!" Goutou yelled out with craziness in his voice.

Immediately Yui got up. "Shut up Goutou! Don't you dare associate yourself with me again! Mind your own business!"

"Yui... you?" Goutou was shocked and confused.

"Are you an idiot? My family has broken your marriage alliance! You are nothing to me. Don't ever come near me again!" Yui coldly warned him. "Or else be prepared for my family's wrath!"

Goutou was stunned and deflated. He felt bewildered and lost.

"Goutou, you better not ruin the class's name again. This class got a moral strike because of your disgusting behavior!" Nina suddenly said.

Immediately everyone rose in uproar!

"What? Motherf****!"

"Bastard Goutou, if our teacher's report shows a bad moral standing because of you, be prepared of the consequences!"

"Goutou, join the health club. I really want to 'mold' you nicely now!" Brother one yelled!

Goutou was frightened. The entire class was ganging up on him in anger.

"I... I..." Goutou stammered under the pressure of the gazes of rage of his classmates.

"You, what you? Goutou, you scum, you better not tarnish our moral grades, otherwise be prepared for the consequences! You aren't the only wealthy family here!" A quiet boy suddenly yelled angrily.

"Wow, even the Satou got angry. Usually he never interacts with classroom matters and remains aloof." Everyone thought in their minds.

At that moment, Goutou heard a silent creepy whisper in his ear. "If you beat up Red now, I'll give you the power to go beyond human!"

Goutou was stunned and forgot about the class. His mind was scared, but he asked in his heart, Who are you?.

"I'm a ghost. Red raped my daughter, I came to punish him. If you beat him up, I'll make you a god!" The whisper suddenly said.

Suddenly Goutou began laughing. His laugh became crazier and crazier and extremely loud. He looked at Red like he was finished!

"Red, I didn't think you were so disgusting! You even raped an innocent man's daughter! Today I will beat you up and avenge him!" Goutou laughed in craze and powerfully walked towards Red.

Everyone who heard what Goutou said were absolutely shocked. Silence and pause. However, the silence exploded into uproar.

"Goutou! Shameless!"

"Goutou! You dare!"

"I can't believe he made such a disgusting excuse!"

"Wait, could Red really have raped someone?"

"What bullshit, its Goutou's excuse to beat him!"

Goutou ran towards Red before anyone could stop him. "Today I will beat you up! Repent for your sins you rapist!"

Red just looked on coldly as Goutou launched a powerful punch towards him. Suddenly there was a huge sound.

Pa!

Goutou was thrown to the ground and the left side of his face swelled up like a balloon. He had been slapped by Red. Such terrifying power. Goutou was not Red's match at all!

"I don't care about your hostility, or your jealousy or your enmity with me. But I will not entertain such accusations against me. If you cross my bottom lime, don't blame me for being impolite." At this moment Red's body stood straight like a sword, his eyes felt murderous and an aura of extreme rage surrounded his body. Everyone who saw him could only think of one thing. Goutou had awakened a sleeping beast!

Goutou saw Red and fear crept in his heart. He began crawling backwards. However the whisper came again. "You can't stop him, I didn't think he was so powerful! Just show everyone that he is a rapist and I'll give you unlimited power!"
