The Legendary F Rank

Chapter 4: Teacher from Hell.

The light died down as Haru's arm suddenly felt heavy. He looked down to see a silver pistol in his hand. It had a long barrel and... Well, that was the only distinguishing feature.

It was just all silver with a black grip. There was no magazine release, and the slide didn't work. He looked at it for a few more seconds. It was strange he had only seen modern guns on TV, but he had never seen anything like this. From what he knew, they still used the guns they did in his last life.

He decided he would do a little test and opened up his window. He then aimed the gun out of the window and pulled the trigger. There was no sound as a blue orb shot out with impeccable speed before disappearing into the distance. 

'That was a little anticlimactic,' he thought before deciding to go to sleep.

When Haru woke up, he shivered as a cold breeze passed throughout the room. He then realized that he had forgotten to close the window last night. 

'I hope I don't catch a cold.' Haru muttered to himself.

Today was his first official day of school and he couldn't show up to class sneezing. When he got to his room, they already had two uniforms set out for him.

He assumed that one was for the winter and the other one was for the summer. It was nearly April, so it was starting to get warmer again. So he just guessed that it was time for the summer uniform and put it on before class started. 

'I wonder what the classes are about.' Haru pondered.

He thought about all the possibilities as he made his way to the classroom. He looked up above the door to see a sign: [Class F] 

'So not only am I Rank F, but they also have a class F?' Haru turned the handle and made his way inside.

"You're late!" He looked down at the student planner and then back up at the clock hanging in the room. It was five minutes behind. 'Crap!' He looked back up to the teacher. He was short and fat with a curly moustache and brown hair.

"Just find a seat." He shook his head as he let out a sigh. 'Come on, it's the first day. I hope he isn't like this all year,' Haru thought.

The room had rows of benches with desks above, that stacked above one another in a diagonal manner so that everyone could see the front of the room.

Haru looked around for a moment before he spotted Jake waving at him and moved slightly to the left to show there was space available next to him. Haru almost tripped on the first step as he made his way up to them. He looked around for a moment and then realised no one had seen him trip. Haru then took a seat next to Jake who passed an empty book to him.

"Here you're going to need this." He whispered so no one would be distracted.

"Hey what are we supposed to be doing?" Haru asked as he started to notice that the students were sitting still, staring blankly at the front of the room. 'It is the first day of school and all but why is everyone so nervous?' Haru wondered.

Jake looked around the room for a moment before turning back to Haru.

"I don't know? The teacher hasn't said anything yet." Haru looked at the teacher who was now sitting there reading a book and smiling to himself. It looked as if he didn't realise he was supposed to be teaching.

Haru then looked around and began to notice a few of the students had started to whisper to one another. Before a girl stood up.

"Excuse me. When is the class going to start?" The Girl asked.

Haru looked down at her, it was none other than the girl with blue hair. The teacher looked up from his book and gave her a disapproving look.

"Shut up F Rank, you don't have a right to learn. The lot of you are useless failures. If it was up to me you wouldn't be here at all." The whispering now became a quiet chatter as a few more students stood up and began to shout at the teacher for his rude remarks.

Jake then stood up too. He had a furious look on his face before he spoke.

"And if you won't teach us, then you don't have the right to call yourself a teacher!" Jake called out to him. The teacher looked up at Jake and shouted back.

"You insolent little! [Thunder dragon]" He began to activate magic with his hand out towards Jake.

'What is this guy thinking? Does he want to put him in a hospital?' Haru thought and then looked back toward the teacher.

He was just about to finish the spell as Haru pulled out his Lux and launched himself from his seat and held the gun against the side of the teachers head.

"I suggest you stop." Haru looked into the teacher's eyes with the least bit of empathy and started to pull the trigger. The teacher suddenly stopped his magic and gulped.

"Good. Now, can everyone do me a favour and wait outside?" Haru called out to the class of onlookers behind him.

They all wasted no time as they all got up and left the classroom within a few seconds.

"If you don't want to teach, why are you a teacher?" Haru asked as he slowly removed the gun from his head. The teacher looked at Haru for a moment.

"[Shock]" He finished his spell as a sinister smile formed on his face.

There was a slight flash of light as Haru pulled the trigger.

The teacher's spell stopped mid-air and disappeared into nothingness. He looked back at Haru with wide eyes as he slowly looked down toward his leg.

There was a hole going all the way through his leg about three inches in diameter. The teacher stood for a moment before letting out a blood-curdling scream. He took a few steps back before falling onto the floor.

Haru walked over to him and stomped on his leg exactly over the hole. The teacher writhed in agony on the floor as the door shot open.

"What happened!?" The old guy from yesterday walked in looking at Haru with shock and disgust. Haru took a few steps back and put away his lux.

"Sir, he attacked me!" The teacher shouted in a panicked voice as he looked back at Haru with a smug-looking smirk.

'This guy... I should have just killed him and got it over with,' Haru thought before the old man spoke up.

"Boy is this true!?" The old guy raised his voice as he spoke. Haru looked back at him and pointed to the doorway where the rest of his class were now peaking in at the sight of their classmate being accused of assault.

"Ask them," Haru said before walking back up to his seat and sitting down. Jake came out of the crowd and spoke up.

"The teacher refused to teach us. And when I spoke out against him he tried to use magic against me so Haru defended me." He said as everyone else silently agreed. Haru looked back at the teacher, his face now scrunched up as he knew he was done for.

"Jake don't lie to me. I don't believe one of my teachers that I hand-selected myself would act like that." The old guy said back. The teacher now stood up with his same smug face.

"But I'm not lying!" Jake shouted back at him in protest. The old guy looked at him in disbelief before someone else stepped out from the crowd.

"He's not lying, sir. It's all true." Haru looked over to see the same long blue hair.

'Oh, it's her again. Her name was Mia, right?' Haru looked at her for a moment.

He looked her up and down. Long blue hair, Snow-white skin and her blue eyes that also seemed to sparkle as he looked into them.

Mia and Haru's eyes met for a second before she quickly looked back at the old guy.

"Miss Tachibana? Is that so?" He looked at her with suspicion for a moment before he looked willing to accept what he was being told.

"Yes, it is." She said back. The old guy now turned back to see the teacher looking like he was about to cry. He had nothing to say but just let out a growl in frustration.

"Everyone return to your seats." The old guy said before grabbing the teacher by the ear.

"Your teacher and I need to have a long discussion." He said before dragging him out of the classroom. The door slammed shut as everyone made their way back to their seats.

Haru had succeeded in drawing everyone's attention as a few of the students began to stare at him as they all sat down.

Jake sat down next to Haru and erased the awkward stares by speaking louder than usual.

"Hey, thanks for saving me." Jake said as he sat down.

"Don't worry about it. I just didn't want to be in the crossfire when he was using magic." Haru said eliciting a few chuckles from his classmate, before Jake punched him in the arm.

"Thanks, it's great to know my value." Jake said as he sat back in his chair and crossed his arms. Haru laughed at the sight of him. It was as if a three-year-old was throwing a tantrum.

The doors opened once again as the old guy looked around for a moment before looking right at Haru.

"Haru Kitagawa. Can I have a word please?" He said. He seemed to have lost his anger now and just spoke with a soft and gentle tone.
