Editing Hagure Yuusha no Aesthetica:Volume 1 Chapter 2 (section)

===Part 1===
The view outside the window gradually went higher up.
 
JPN Babel school’s campus scene became smaller and smaller, further and further.
 
Currently, the glass elevator, following a certain speed, was slowly rising.
 
The Babel school’s main building is a high-rise building. On the side of the body of the building, there are numerous elevators. This building has a total of 180 floors and as the students and staff member's positions and authorities are different, there are limits to the floors they can arrive on. In order to reduce the waiting period, floors used at a higher frequency were equipped with numerous direct elevators. Currently, Akatsuki and Miu were taking the exclusive B-class students’ elevator to the classroom floor.
 
“Damn it, my head hurts...I don’t know whether it is because of a cold or because I’m too nervous.”

This morning when Akatsuki opened his eyes, he was suffering from an inexplicable headache.
 
Ousawa Akatsuki had a task that he must complete, and this task was basically equivalent to challenging the world. As he finally stood at his second starting point, he was more or less feeling a bit nervous deep down. This was Akatsuki’s analysis of his own mental state.
 
Turning his head, he only saw Miu staring at the glass wall in front of her, looking at her own appearance in a uniform. Although she was born from a mix of a human and a dark elf,  Miu’s skin was white, soft and delicate, she also did not have an elf’s pointed ears and her appearance was no different from an ordinary human. The elf race’s unique beauty and slender limbs are quite compelling, but not to the extent where it raises suspicion. Akatsuki looked at Miu, his face showing a knowing smile.
 
“You’re quite happy.”
 
“…Huh? R..Really?? Of course not.”
 
Miu quickly tried to evade the topic. In Akatsuki’s eyes, the Miu with her red ears was extraordinarily cute, Akatsuki could not help but narrow his eyes. Maybe Miu never wore a uniform before, Akatsuki thought. Plus, Miu had mentioned a while ago that today was her very first day going to school.
 
After bringing Miu to this world with difficulty, Akatsuki sincerely hoped that her very first experience of going to school would leave a favorable impression to her.
 
At this moment, the elevator’s rising speed gradually decreased and it finally stopped at a certain floor. With a mechanical ringing sound, the elevator doors slowly opened.
 
This was the B class floor. Several students were chatting in the hallway. After walking out of the elevator, there was only one path in front of them. Thus Akatsuki and Miu walked slowly along the corridor and passed through the students who were standing in the corridor.
 
Akatsuki quickly discovered one thing.
 
“Strange…”
 
Miu also seemed to be aware of it, her tone was very uneasy.
 
“Is it because I am too sensitive? But it feels that …”
 
“Yes, we have become the focus of everybody’s attention, but this is quite normal, there is nothing strange with it. This floor only has people in B-class and now two unfamiliar faces show up, it will obviously cause curiosity from everyone. Therefore, you do not have to take it to heart.”
 
Then Akatsuki suddenly stopped his footsteps. At the end of the corridor appeared an entrance doorway, which was the B-class classroom doors.
 
…Okay, the day has finally arrived.
 
Akatsuki violently and rudely pushed open the doors, and walked confidently into the classroom.
 
The chattering of the classroom suddenly became quiet.
 
“———”
 
Everyone’s attention was all focused at the door. Akatsuki did not try and escape, and directly confronted everyone’s stares of curiosity. Whether it was the whispering throughout every corner of the classroom or everybody’s stares of curiosity, it was, in fact, not unfamiliar to Akatsuki. During his time in Alayzard and wandering around the place with his identity of a rogue hero, he had already tasted this feeling.
 
But at that moment —
 
“…uuuwwaa!”
 
The uneasy Miu held to and pulled tightly on Akatsuki’s sleeves. After Akatsuki saw this, he gently held Miu’s shoulder, then looked proudly at the class.
 
“No matter what time, or ever the world, transfer students are always the main attractions of the crowd. You do not have to be nervous, there is no need to be polite, just confidently be yourself. Come, let us go.”
 
Akatsuki started to take a step, and walked through the path between the tables under the gaze of the entire class. The classroom was designed in a stairs shape where the front was low and narrow and the back was high up and wide, with a total of three columns of tables in left, middle and right of the class. The formation of the columns extended all the way from the front to the back, making it look like the shape of a paper fan. Akatsuki’s destination was the window seat located at the very last row. Miu timidly followed behind him, with her right hand clinging tightly to Akatsuki’s sleeves.
 
After arriving at the destination, Akatsuki sat down.
 
Beside him, Miu disturbedly said:
 
“C…can we sit anywhere available?”
 
“Of course. If the seat cannot be sat on, someone will naturally inform us.”
 
And —
 
“Usually transfer students sit in empty seats.”
 
Just when Akatsuki was talking about nonsense—
 
“— Hahaha, you are quite an interesting person.”
 
A female student walked over. With a slender physique, beautiful short hair and a pretty face coupled with a well-proportioned body, her gestures revealed the charm of a mature woman. A cute girl was not the best way to describe her, in fact, she was closer to a dazzling beauty.
 
…Uh Oh.
 
Akatsuki narrowed his eyes, but the female student heartily laughed.
 
“— Good, Very Good, as expected the legendary student is really talented.”
 
“Ehh? Why do you say this?”
 
Akatsuki’s retort seemed to play into the hands of the girl. He only saw her smiling very happily, and even her eyes were filled with tears of laughter.
 
“Ever since the school enrolled you to B-Class, you guys have become famous within Babel school, everyone calls you guys as History’s strongest newcomers!”
 
After saying all this, the girl looked at Miu.
 
“One is a mysterious beauty who used magic to instantly knock out the combat skills instructor during the entrance exam—“
 
Then she looked at Akatsuki again.
 
“The other is the one who was identified as a <True Hero> during the Norn Screening,  and afterwards was endorsed as a hero by Student President Hikami during a special inspection. Actually, both of you have already become everybody’s object of discussion.”
 
“So that’s what happened…”
 
Miu, who finally understood the situation, embarrassingly scratched her cheek.
 
“I will have to work harder in the future, so I will not fail to live up to everyone’s expectations.”
 
Akatsuki smiled and said:
 
“Looks like you are very familiar about us. Based on the greeting principles, shouldn’t you also talk about yourself?”
 
“Now that you said that, please let me introduce myself.”
 
The female student nodded, her right hand touching her chest.
 
“I am called Izumi Chikage, from now on, I am your classmate. As for whether or not will we become friends from classmates, that depends on each other’s meaning of friends. About this, I personally am maintaining an optimistic attitude. Nice to meet you.”
 
The smiling Chikage extended a hand of friendship, Akatsuki also politely expressed agreement. Chikage’s soft and delicate hand was also very smooth.
 
“I am Ousawa Akatsuki, this here is my sister Miu.”
 
After Akatsuki’s introductions, Miu timidly extended her right hand.
 
“Uhh, I am Ousawa…Miu. During my stay at the alternative world, an accident occurred and made me lose all my memories about this world. If I cause problems for everyone in the future, please forgive me.” [[File:HYnA vol 01 008.jpg|thumb]]
 
“Don’t be so polite. If there is anything you don’t know in the future, feel free to ask.”
 
Chikage shook Miu’s hand while smiling.
 
“Ah that’s right, there is something that I specially have to tell you two. Ousawa-kun, it is natural for transfer students to sit in empty seats, but I hope to persuade you that you can select other seats.”
 
“There are two Ousawa-kuns, it’s fine to just call me Akatsuki.”
 
After saying all this, Akatsuki shrugged.
 
“Why can’t we select this seat? Don’t tell me everyone’s seat is fixed?”
 
The classroom followed the design of a university lecture room. Akatsuki believed that he could freely select his seat.
 
“Well that’s true, but…”
 
Just when Chikage was about to say the reason behind it—
 
A large noise of dispute could be heard in front of the entrance to the classroom.
Miu looked in the direction of where the sound was coming from. There were two males in front of the classroom door. One was awkwardly sitting on the ground. The other was a hideous looking man, arrogantly looking down on the other. It seemed that there was some sort of dispute between them.
 
“Tanaka, Look where you are going! Pretending that you don’t know when you bumped into someone! How are you going to compensate me!”
 
“Ahh, it’s beginning again.”
 
Chikage sighed. Her reaction caught Miu’s curiosity.
 
“Beginning again…? This kind of thing occurs frequently?”
 
“Yes. He is Onizuka Kenya, previously a student in A-class, but in the end, he was dropped down from the previous periodical inspection. Perhaps it is a problem of having his pride shattered, but he is constantly bullying people after coming to B-class, relying on the fact that no one is his opponent in B-class, and venting out his frustrations.”
 
Chikage paused for a moment and continued to speak:
 
“Actually, the reason why I came to talk with you is also related to the situation. Akatsuki, the seat you selected is Onizuka’s specified special seat. There is no fixed seating arrangements, normally you can sit wherever you look, but everyone is afraid of facing trouble, so they specially avoid this seat to avoid provoking him.”
 
“So that’s it…”
 
Akatsuki looked at the classroom door. After Onizuka kicked the male student on the floor a few times, his face was still filled with rage.
 
After a few seconds, he finally noticed Akatsuki’s existence.
 
“Hey, what are you looking at huh? Never seen something like this before?”
 
Only now did Onizuka notice that Akatsuki was actually sitting in his special seat.
 
“And you dare take my seat. I’ve never seen you before, a newcomer? If you came here, then you have to follow the rules here!”
 
Onizuka rushed up angrily.
 
“Now that I think about it, you are the legendary transfer student? You believe that lying fortune telling is real? You actually believe that you are a hero?”
 
“…”
 
Akatsuki did not reply. To be honest, he did not even care about Onizuka, his vision lay on the male student who was bullied by Onizuka. Onizuka noticed and coldly snorted.
 
“What are you looking at? Want me to kick you is it? Don’t think that by entering B-class directly, you can ignore me.”
 
“Onizuka, could you please not provoke others?”
 
Chikage attempted to stop Onizuka, and even stood in front of the confused Miu.
 
“This is not your problem, Chikage. Now scram over to one side…huh?”
 
Onizuka’s gaze laid upon Miu, who was behind Chikage, his face suddenly showed an obscene smile.
 
“So that’s it… she is the other transfer student? Not bad, this kind of product is not commonly seen, and she is just my taste.”
 
After speaking, Onizuka reached out for Miu.
 
“…W…What are you trying to do…?”
 
Ignoring Miu’s suspicions, Onizuka rudely held onto Miu’s arm.
 
At this moment…
 
“Uhhhhoohh—!”
 
Onizuka’s entire body flew backwards, hitting the classroom walls abruptly.
 
The classroom suddenly had an uproar. The students, who were coldly observing on the sidelines, whispered nonstop. The problem student who caused headaches to everyone, the school’s time bomb, was actually being taught a lesson by the new transfer student!?
 
—What had actually occurred…?
 
As the event was so sudden, Miu stood at her original spot, bewildered. Chikage, who was beside her, also widened her eyes, and didn’t know whether this was good or not. At this moment, Akatsuki patted Miu’s shoulders and slowly walked to the front.
 
…Ah, Don’t tell me…!
 
Miu finally understood. The reason why Onizuka flew back several meters turned out to be Akatsuki’s work. After hitting the wall, Onizuka gently shook his head, and his face revealed a painful expression. Due to being inside of Babel school’s barrier, Onizuka’s physical body was not injured, but the impact of the mental shock should not be underestimated. Onizuka struggled to get up, but with his feet staggering, he nearly failed to stand.
 
“You are quite impressive, very good, looks like you have guts. Just you wait, I will instantly—“
Onizuka expressed a fierce look, and was about to stand up from the side of the wall.
 
At this moment, Akatsuki suddenly stretched out his hand, clutching Onizuka’s face.
 
“—”
 
This seemingly ordinary and mediocre action was completely out of Onizuka’s expectation. It could be called the ultimate technique, which combined all fight skills.
 
Miu, who witnessed everything, stood frozen at her place.
 
“A…Are you trying to do—Whoaaaa!”
 
Onizuka held onto Akatsuki’s wrist, attempting to break free from Akatsuki’s clutches. What had actually occurred? Miu was puzzled and even the other students were revealing an expression of uncertainty. At this moment, Miu noticed that Onizuka was trembling, and after a careful observation, found out that the reason was that even speaking would inflict a tremendous amount of pain.
 
Akatsuki calmly looked at the Onizuka in front of him.
 
“You and I are really like-minded, the truth is I also like bullying the weak. In this world, aren’t there always people who believe that they are stronger than others, and look down upon them? I absolutely love to shatter the pride of these type of people. Right, you are called Onizuka isn’t it?”
 
Akatsuki snorted.
 
“So how’s this? The feeling of your pride being stepped on by others isn’t so bad right?”
 
“…! …! Guuuuu….!”
 
Onizuka’s face was twisted in pain. Although his physical body does not hurt, it does not mean that he cannot feel pain. Onizuka’s face was red and gradually turning from red to black.
 
“— S…Stop it! It will cause problems if you continue!”
 
A panicked Miu broke into the scramble between Akatsuki and Onizuka, pulled on Akatsuki’s burly arms and barely managed to separate the two. During the process of pulling Akatsuki back to his seat, Miu sighed repeatedly.
 
“Causing trouble on the first day, I really don’t know what you’re thinking.”
 
“The school’s barrier is designed for the hot-headed people like us. I only played around slightly. It won’t kill anyone…right?”
 
Akatsuki sought Chikage’s input, but she reluctantly shook her head with a wry smile.
 
“Yes it is, but it’s hard to say for those who knowingly cause trouble.”
 
After speaking, Chikage’s expression suddenly turned stiff. A commotion also occurred in the classroom.
 
…Huh?
 
Miu looked around and was surprised to find out that beside Onizuka was a magic circle, and a defensive barrier, meaning that he intended to use a powerful magic in the classroom. Activating magic in such a confined space would ultimately cause a significant amount of casualties. Even if it was under the barrier which could remove all physical harm, this could also lead to everyone losing consciousness due to the enormous impact.
 
—I must activate a magical barrier! But after thinking it through, Miu dismissed the idea. Onizuka is B-class's strongest returnee. Activating a magical barrier could protect herself, but not all the students had the ability to block his magical attacks.
 
Looks like there is no other choice.
 
Miu began to concentrate, preparing a defensive magic that ranged throughout the entire classroom.
 
Unfortunately she was slow by a step. Onizuka had already completed his magic chant. At the moment when Miu felt despair, Akatsuki suddenly shook off her hands.
 
Only to see Akatsuki approaching Onizuka at lightning speed, and with a turn of his body, unleash an upper kick.
 
“Ha! Idiot!”
 
Onizuka’s face showed a hint of sneer. The chant had already finished, the defensive barrier was already opened, all physical attacks were a waste of energy.
Everyone was thinking the same thing. They could only watch Akatsuki’s upper kick clash with the defensive barrier.
 
After a brief struggle, what followed was — a crack. As a crisp sound like glass shattering spread across the room, Onizuka’s defensive barrier suddenly dispersed. This unbelievable scene occurred in front of everyone.
 
Akatsuki’s upper kick broke pass the defensive barrier, and with overwhelming accuracy hit Onizuka in the head.
 
“—”
 
Bang.
 
Onizuka, like a kite without any string, flew from the very back to the very front.
 
After rolling a few times on the floor, Onizuka lost consciousness, lying on the ground motionless. The huge classroom was enveloped in an unusual silence. Is this the power of Renkan Keikikou? Miu wondered while staring at Akatsuki.
 
Just a slight mistake could have led to an enormous disaster, yet Akatsuki stood there relaxed.
 
“Yes, an idiot indeed.”
 
Akatsuki coldly spoke—
 
“Only that the idiotic person is you.”
