Duel Academy, Student Council Office.
"Huh? Senpai?"
Kira looked a bit surprised upon entering.
"It's you?" The rather attractive upperclasswoman in front of him was surprised, too.
She was Seika Kohinata.
Duel Academy's Miss Contest winner for two years straight—only to be dethroned in her third year by the freshman Alexis Rhodes, which seemed to awaken some strange new attributes in Yuri.
Kira nodded in understanding. "So you're a student council officer, too."
"Of course, I'm the president of the Student Management Committee. Who could be better suited for management than the Academy Queen herself?" Seika brushed her hair back. "So, what brings you to the student council?"
She had a bad feeling.
Kira was surprised. So this senpai was the student council president...
And an old acquaintance, too.
"Oh, nothing much, just wanted to ask if the student council is recruiting," Kira said.
Seika frowned.
Technically, they were still recruiting. This year the student council was short-staffed.
But that was only for staff, not monsters.
They'd heard about the Duel Club's situation this semester: ever since a certain freshman joined, things had gotten... difficult to describe.
The new members of the Duel Club were all grumbling; there seemed to be an unusual aversion to club duels. For a club known for the strongest card addiction in the academy, this was unprecedented.
Ironically, the other clubs' students were showing more interest in the Duel Club's matches. Even Seika knew some student council members who loved to go watch the Duel Club duels and return in high spirits.
As one of the earliest members of the Kira's Victims Club, Seika could understand why this was happening.
And now, the culprit himself was standing in front of her, wanting to join the student council!
What was this—was he going to turn the student council into the next Duel Club?
Just the thought made her shiver—the trauma of being crushed by Lava Golem and Nightmare Wheel came flooding back.
No, sorry, but the recruitment window is closed.
That's what she wanted to say.
But just then, another council member cheerfully spoke up: "Huh? This student wants to join? That's great, we're short-handed right now!"
Seika: "..."
She glared at them.
You talk too much.
Council Member: "?"
What? Weren't we recruiting?
"That's great," Kira smiled. "I look forward to working with everyone." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
With that said, Seika couldn't say anything more. Besides, she'd heard of Kira's reputation—supposedly even the notoriously strict Academic Affairs Office gave him special treatment. The student council was nothing; if he wanted in or out, so be it.
"Fine... Then welcome to the student council, Fujiki Kira," Seika said weakly.
