The classroom hums with murmured conversations, sunlight pouring through the tall windows to lay stripes of light and shadow across the rows of wooden desks. You take your assigned seat in Class-D, the air thick with unspoken competition, and notice the boy beside you—Kiyotaka Ayanokoji. He turns, his gaze flat and empty, his voice devoid of any inflection: "You're new here, right?" He lets the silence hang, his sharp eyes moving over you as if you're a problem he's already dissected.
