"Student Council President!"
"Student Council President!"
"The demoness is here..."
As Misaki Ayuzawa walked into the auditorium, students greeted her one after another.
Misaki Ayuzawa sat down next to a cute girl with pink twin tails, nodding and greeting her two friends.
"Sakura, Shizuko."
Misaki Ayuzawa had two good friends: one was Sakura Hanazono, who had pink twin tails, and the other was Shizuko Kaga, who wore glasses.
"Misaki, you're here."
"Misaki-chan, you're finally here!"
"I wonder what the new Headmaster will be like. He won't be a strict old man, will he?"
Sakura Hanazono said, pretending to be serious and mimicking an old man.
"Hehe, Sakura's imitation is really good."
Misaki Ayuzawa couldn't help but smile at Sakura Hanazono's cute appearance.
While the three were chatting, the grade director, with his receding hairline and thick glasses, quickly walked to the microphone on the stage and said:
"Teachers and students, I believe you all know that our Seika High School has welcomed a new Headmaster starting today!"
"Let's give the new Headmaster the warmest applause!"
Clap, clap, clap... As the grade director's voice faded, a round of enthusiastic applause echoed through the auditorium.
Someone's figure also came from backstage to the grade director's side. Just as the applause gradually died down, a loud shout from Misaki attracted everyone's attention.
"Ha!!! It's you!"
Zhong Chen looked at Misaki Ayuzawa, who stood up with a shocked expression, his eyes full of triumph. 'Little girl, are you surprised by me?'
Zhong Chen walked to the microphone with a slight smile, motioned for the grade director to leave, and then, looking at Misaki Ayuzawa, asked with a smile at the corner of his mouth:
"Does this student have any objections to me serving as Headmaster?"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Misaki Ayuzawa suddenly realized her gaffe. Seeing everyone looking at her in surprise, her face instantly turned red as she shook her head.
"Hehe, it seems this student is overly excited to see me. I'm very happy, but to avoid disturbing others, could I ask this student to please sit down first?"
Although Zhong Chen enjoyed pranks now, he wouldn't let Misaki Ayuzawa be embarrassed in front of so many people.
"Oh, oh, I'm very sorry for disturbing you!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Misaki, knowing he was giving her a way out, quickly bowed and sat back down.
As soon as Misaki Ayuzawa sat back down, Sakura Hanazono, sitting next to her, couldn't help but lean in and whisper:
"Misaki-chan, why are you so excited? Do you know the new Headmaster? I didn't expect the new Headmaster to be so handsome!"
Shizuko Kaga, sitting next to Sakura Hanazono, also looked at Misaki Ayuzawa with a questioning gaze.
At this moment, Misaki Ayuzawa, being interrogated by her two friends, didn't know how to explain.
Fortunately, Zhong Chen finally spoke.
"Ahem... Everyone, from today onwards, I am your new Headmaster. My name is Zhong Chen, and I hope we can get along happily in the days to come."
Hearing Zhong Chen say this, all the teachers and students, no matter what they thought, still had to give the new Headmaster some face, right?
They immediately started clapping.
Zhong Chen looked at the clapping teachers and students with satisfaction, then raised his right hand and gently pressed it down, and the applause instantly disappeared.
"It seems everyone welcomes me very much. So, to live up to your expectations, I'll just say a few words..."
After that, all the teachers and students listened to Zhong Chen's simple speech for an entire afternoon, in a half-asleep state.
Until... "Today, I'll just say these few things. We'll talk about the rest another time."
"Also, when you wake up, remember to go home."
Zhong Chen looked at the sleeping students and teachers below and around him, and said softly, still seemingly not having said enough.
As Zhong Chen walked off the stage, he was surprised to find that a handsome blond man hadn't fallen asleep. Instead, he was leaning against the wall, looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze.
Speaking of which, in the entire anime, the female protagonist Misaki Ayuzawa is already quite all-around. She can outperform many boys in both academics and combat skills.
However, there are always a few individuals who are so all-around that it's a bit unreasonable.
That's right, I'm talking about this blond-haired Takumi Usui. He consistently ranks first in academics, leaving Misaki Ayuzawa, who is in second place, no room to complain.
He's an all-around athlete, skilled in cooking, has extraordinary hearing, a musical genius... He has a half-brother who is the heir to the prestigious Gerald family in England.
His character setting is definitely that of a standard manga protagonist.
I didn't expect him to be able to withstand my mental attack. Could he be the second Rias?
PS: Rias Gremory once remained conscious until the end of Zhong Chen's 'just a few words' speech.
Thinking of this, Zhong Chen walked cheerfully in front of Takumi Usui, sized him up and down, and then, stroking his chin with his right hand, said:
"Oh, wow, I didn't expect anyone to still be awake. Student, you have a bright future."
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Takumi Usui replied expressionlessly:
"The Headmaster's speech was wonderful. I believe with you, Seika will become better and better."
"You're very good at talking, young man. Given your sincerity, I won't object to your business with a certain someone."
Zhong Chen spoke ambiguously, saying things Takumi Usui couldn't understand.
"Could you be more clear?"
"You'll understand later. It's getting late, you should go home early."
Zhong Chen didn't answer his question, but just waved his hand with his back to Takumi Usui.
However, after only two steps, he turned his head and said playfully to Takumi Usui:
"Oh, and remember to pay attention when you pass by the Maid Café in the future. There might be a surprise."
After saying that, Zhong Chen ignored the puzzled Takumi Usui and walked out of the school auditorium.
At this moment, Takumi Usui looked in the direction Zhong Chen had left, his face filled with solemnity.
"Zhong Chen... Could it really be that consortium? No, it's impossible... it must just be a coincidence of names..."
As Zhong Chen left, the students and teachers also gradually woke up.
Looking at the empty stage, various discussions began to rise and fall.
"Wow... This is the first time I've felt so soundly asleep sitting in a chair."
"The Headmaster talks too much, doesn't he...?"
"Terrifying, truly."
"I never want to experience that again."
"Misaki-chan, I feel like my soul has been cleansed, and I can't remember anything anymore."
Sakura Hanazono cried, hugging Misaki Ayuzawa beside her and complaining.
"You don't remember anything anyway, don't blame it on the Headmaster."
Shizuko Kaga pushed up her glasses and mercilessly stated the actual situation.
"Waaah, Misaki-chan, Shizuko is scolding me again..."
"Alright, alright... don't be sad."
Misaki Ayuzawa smiled and patted Sakura Hanazono's small head in her arms.
"As expected, Misaki-chan is the best."
In the evening, Misaki Ayuzawa, returning from her part-time job at the Maid Latte cafe, had lost her usual energy.
She looked completely distraught.
Zhong Chen, who was playing chess with Sha Nai, saw Misaki Ayuzawa in this state.
He knew that she had probably been discovered by Takumi Usui working at the Maid Café.
Immediately, he added fuel to the fire and said loudly:
"Oh, the Student Council President is back. Don't you know to greet the Headmaster?"
"Be careful, or this Headmaster will make things difficult for you."
Misaki Ayuzawa, who was still thinking about what to do next, saw that guy in the living room and immediately forgot about Takumi Usui, asking sternly:
"How did you become the Headmaster of Seika Academy? Who exactly are you?"
"Hehe... Didn't I tell you? An Alien!"
"..."
