The Legendary F Rank

Chapter 143: Slacker.

"What are you making such a ruckus for? Can't you read I left a sign telling you that classes are over for today so go! Leave me alone." Professor Hua shouted as he came out to see what was happening. He thought that they were outraged because the class was cancelled but then he looked down.

He saw the boy bowing his head to Haru like he was worshipping his very existence. That was when he became even more enraged. He figured out what the noise was about. It wasn't someone upset about classes being cancelled it. The new student had started to bully the other students

"You, Leave Fan alone! I might push you all very hard but I won't stand by and watch my students be bullied!" He shouted at Haru who was stood above the boy with his head on the ground. 

"Me? What did I do? I didn't bully anyone." Haru exclaimed as he was being accused of something that he didn't do. Haru was never the type to bully the weak. But this boy was crying and worshipping him like a god. 

The other students all backed up as professor Hua stepped out from the classroom and marched over to Haru. Haru looked around for someone to help him clear up the misunderstanding. But no one was there when the whole interaction happened.

No one had seen the boy fall to his knees on his own. The only thing they did see was Haru standing above him while the boy grovelled at his feet. So they all began to stare at Haru with hateful eyes. They all thought they were in the same class that a vicious bully was in and they wondered who would be his next target. 

The boy on the ground still didn't lift his head. Even as professor Hua bent down to try to help him up. 

"It's okay. You are safe now. I will call the principal here right away to solve this." Professor Hua tried to reassure the boy but it was no use. He just kept repeating the words "Thank You" Over and over again. 

Then something seemed to snap in the boy as he recoiled back and struggled to stand as he crawled back to the other side of the corridor and pushed himself against the brick wall with enough force to knock the wind out of his lungs. 

He fell to his knees and gasped for air as everyone in the class and people from different classes watched on in confusion. Something was wrong here but no one could quite tell what it was. After he had caught his breath he looked up. 

"Professor Hua" He said with an expression of pure terror on his face. He looked like he was ready to die at any second as his face went pale and his eyes widened. 

"It's okay. There is no need to be scared anymore. I will take care of everything so you can rest easy." Professor Hua said while walking closer to the boy. 

As he stepped closer the boy seemed to back up more and more as the look of fear on his face seemed to get worse until the point he closed his eyes and his body began to shake. 

"No! Leave me alone please!" The boy shouted back in response. 

Professor Hua felt even more sympathy for the boy. 'He is clearly so scared of the new student that he doesn't even want me to help out of fear of the bullying getting worse.' He thought before trying to reassure him again.

"It's Okay. All you have to do is tell me exactly what happened and I will make sure that he doesn't bully you again. Just trust me and everything will be okay." He sighed as the boy recoiled away from hi words once more. 

And then suddenly the boy opened his eyes once more. 

"Wait. What? Who is bullying me? No one is bullying me, what do you mean?" The boy asked in a panicked voice before looking back at Haru with apologetic eyes. The last thing he wanted was to cause a misunderstanding. 

"You are being bullied by the new student right? Why else would you be on the floor begging him to stop?" Professor Hua felt confused. 'Is this one of those weird fetish things that kids do these days? I really need to research these things some more.' He thought while once again jumping to the wrong conclusion. 

"You're wrong. He wasn't bullying me. I was just thanking him for saving my life. I would really be dead if it wasn't for what he did." The boy explained to professor Hua who was still having weird thoughts. 

"Thanking him for saving your life? How was your life put in danger?" He asked the boy with growing suspicion. 'Something bad must have happened to him. Or maybe it was the new student that put him in danger in the first place.' He thought as his dislike for Haru only increased. 

"Well Urm. I was going to be late in handing in my assign for this week and if I get one more bad credit I will fail the whole course. If the class is cancelled due to him annoying you then I will have extra time to finish it" The boy said with disappointment in his eyes as he just admitted that in front of his whole class.

"I see now You're a slacker just like him. Fine, do whatever you want to. My mood is even worse now so the lot of you scram before I start handing out bad credits." Professor Hua sighed as he walked back into his classroom and then slammed the door behind him. 

"Phew, Thank god he is gone now. He is so scary. I thought I was going to have a heart attack for a moment." The boy said as professor Hua disappeared behind the closing door.

Haru began to walk away with the rest of his classmates. He didn't bother to respond as he had things to go and buy so that he could furnish his room

"Hey, My name is Fan. I was wondering if" He began to say as he caught up to Haru who was walking away. 

But Haru had no time to spare talking to the weird kid that had just bowed down to him. He almost felt disgusted just from seeing his face. As Haru turned to look at the boy he waved his hand and then looked over the boy's shoulder. 

"Oh, professor?" He asked to force the boy to turn around. 

He did just as Haru had planed and turned around instantly out of instinct. And as he did Haru slashed his hand down in the air in front of him and disappeared into the void corridor he had just created.
