<strong>The next day morning, Soul weapon division building, Class 10-C;</strong>
As the final exams are getting near, everyone attended the morning classes. Some of them even buried their faces in books and not paying attention to their surroundings.
Yet, there were also a group of students who were playing around without any tensions.
"A whole day passed. There's no response from the Disciplinary Committee or Student council." A boy commented.
Another girl responded with how Matilda visited the girls' dormitory for footage.
Rebecca worried about the school management's action against them regarding their assault as well as their alcohol consumption.
Nella brushed off their worries, "What can happen? A self-reflecting letter? Or maybe, clean the classroom? With how Azrael and Zona are operating their respective clubs, there's no need to worry about some accidental assault. As for drinking, we just need to ask Zona for a favor. We will graduate in a few weeks anyway…"
Seeing how confident she is, some of them put the matter away while some others who were nearby hoped that they receive harsh punishment.
Just then, the class homeroom teacher arrived and everyone took their seats. His face appeared to be serious.
"Nella, Rebecca." He called out their names.
Both of the girls stood up from their seats. Rebecca seemed nervous while Nella seemed confident.
Their homeroom teacher then took out a paper from his pocket and read, "Based on the reports submitted by the Disciplinary Committee, the school management has decided to demote the students Nella and Rebecca of grade-10 from soul weapon division to dropouts division in allegations of drinking alcohol underage, planned assault on a fellow schoolmate to take revenge, and injuring staff members."
The two girls were stunned on the spot. The others were also surprised. The homeroom teacher eyed them seriously before continuing to read.
"On the charges of committing a five-star offense, Ms. Nella and Ms. Rebecca hereby cannot attend the final examinations until each of them fulfill 150 hours of community service on or before March 9th, 1994. Note that during the community service, they are forbidden to use soul energy.
The students can appeal for a special trial if they feel they got injustice.
Student Council"
After reading everything, the homeroom teacher crumbled the paper and threw it towards them in anger. "You two brats can't stay out of trouble for long, can you?"
Meanwhile, at the Elite division's class-8, Rueben, their homeroom teacher entered the classroom and took a roll call. Based on the performance in the Annual tournament, a few people were promoted to the Elite division.
And now, the class strength grew to 17 of which 13 are boys and 4 are girls.
Once it was over, he proceeded to inform everyone about the upcoming event. "I'm sure all of you know Valentine's week will start from tomorrow."
Suddenly, the boys appeared to be interested. The newly-promoted girls collectively glanced at Azzy. Like other fans, they also developed a crush on him.
Reuben continued, "Just like every year, no celebrations will be held for grade-6 and the senior students. No one should appear in civilian clothes during the classes or try to make funny incidents of announcing it from the broadcast room. You are allowed to give chocolates but that's it. There won't be any private or public love confessions within the academy either. Those who break the rules will be punished strictly."
Instantly, everyone's face immediately darkened. Of course, they went through the same thing, last year and before last year but now that the academy is closing down, they expected the management to be a bit liberal.
"Azrael…" Reuben then called Azzy.
"Yes?"
"Disciplinary committee members need to patrol during break times. Plan accordingly." Reuben was serious as he warned him of the consequences if the situation gets out of hand. Azzy was transferred to this academy just a year ago and recently took the charge of the Disciplinary Committee.
While he knows that Azzy is strong enough to beat every student in the school, the leadership is different. Combining with how the Disciplinary committee is giving very light punishments to everyone alike, he was worried that Azzy might not able to handle this chaos week properly.
In response to his warning, Azzy plainly nodded, indicating that he understands it.
With nothing else left to say, Reuben took his seat and closed his eyes, feeling sleepy.
A little more than five minutes, his sleep was interrupted by an announcement through the speakers installed nearby the CCTV.
"Student Azrael of Grade-8, please come to the Principal's office immediately." "I repeat, Student Azrael of Grade-8, please come to the Principal's office immediately."
As Reuben removed the barrier, Azzy left the classroom.
He soon arrived at the Principal's office to find Zona, a teacher he only talked to once during the past year, and the two girls standing before Barton.
As soon as he entered the room, Nella and Rebecca glared at him in anger as if they want to rip his flesh.
"Sir, you called me?" Ignoring the others, he asked Barton, to which the latter replied, "Teacher Linwood wants to change their punishment. I told them that you are responsible for it and since I don't see any unfairness in your judgment, I'm leaving the matter to the two of you to discuss."
Before Azzy commented to the statement, the teacher spoke, "The final examinations are roughly four weeks away. At this point in time, if they spend 150 hours on community service, they won't get time to study, which impacts their overall score in the final exams. It further impacts their advanced studies too."
Zona didn't interfere in the matter and silently stood aside as her future was already set. In fact, neither the final exams nor her position will impact much. So, she was extremely chilled at the moment, not caring about the outcome.
Azzy glanced at the two seniors and answered, "If it happens outside of the academy, both of them will be faced with criminal charges. I don't see how such kind of people will be useful to the society even if they graduate in high distinction (above 4.5 CGPA)."
As usual, his facial expression was indifferent and his tone was plain as if he was giving an answer to a question that has nothing to do with him, making Nella blurt out in anger. "And those dropouts will save the society?"
"You…" The teacher didn't even hesitate to slap her head. "Isn't it enough that you caused trouble? Now, you even dared to speak?"
"I'm sorry." She was quick to apologize.
However, it was too late. At first, even Azzy thought it was too extreme but now, he felt like she was being spoiled because of the teacher's protectiveness.
Azzy was indeed soft at heart but he wasn't the type to concede to anyone no matter who it is. And now that he believed his judgment is even more right, he looked straight into the teacher's eyes and said, "Then, you can apply for a special trial to change the punishment or you can request Master, I mean, Principal Barton to override our judgment."
Before anyone else reply to his statement, he bowed to his master and then, turned around to leave the room.
"Tch... You are still too soft. Instead of community services, you should have requested expulsion. You should always have to take a tough stance against crimes to teach them a lesson." The Reaper spoke in his head as Azzy was returning to his classroom.
"No thanks."
