Chapter 8: The Fox's Genius Plan

The Commander's Final Class


The ropes on Shion's hands were slowly untied. Suddenly, one of the agents approached and touched his shoulder. "Didn't I tell you it's better to be quiet?"

Shion looked up. The agent took off his mask, revealing it to be Arata. Shion was shocked, feeling tricked and played.

"Arata Sensei? What is this all about?"

Soon after, all the agents in the room began to take off their masks, including Deputy Commander Isshin, Shion's uncle.

"Uncle?" Shion whispered, his eyes welling up.

At the same time, the ropes on Shion's mother were also released. The ropes were never tight, just a trick to deceive him. Shion's mother approached, not to hug him, but to slap him.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! DIDN'T YOU CAUSE ENOUGH SHAME FOR YOUR MOTHER?!"

Shion looked down, crying. "Mom... I'm sorry."

"WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THIS WAS ALL REAL?! WHO WOULD HAVE BEEN RESPONSIBLE?! YOUR UNCLE?!"

"WASN'T IT ENOUGH THAT YOU MADE YOUR MOTHER SUFFER? YOU ALSO INTENTIONALLY MADE YOUR FATHER SUFFER WITH YOUR FALSE INFORMATION UNTIL HE GOT STRESSED AND WAS ADMITTED TO A MENTAL HOSPITAL!"

Everyone in the room fell silent. Shion realized that he wasn't just hurting himself, but his entire family.

"MOM... I REGRET THIS! A SON LIKE ME PROBABLY DESERVES TO BE IN JAIL!"

"Not really," Arata said, his voice calm, breaking the silence. He walked over and untied the ropes on Shion's hands. "You still have class to attend tomorrow. As your teacher, I have a great responsibility to protect and teach you, Shion."

Shion's tears broke free. He never imagined that the teacher he hated was the person who cared about him the most. Uncle Isshin and his mother immediately hugged him, letting him cry until he felt better.
