The two students named by Shuto immediately try to escape, but in a closed classroom, they are quickly caught.
"Uwaaaaah!? No, I don't want to go through that again!"
"Why!? You already hurt us so much during lunch break, aren't you satisfied!?"
Tanimoto, despite his large build, whines like a small child. Daido is terrified by Shuto's unrelenting thirst for revenge.
"Satisfied…? No way. You guys aren't completely broken yet. I need to break you to the point where you can't ever do that crap to me again. Just like Nakazato, I won't be satisfied until you're crippled, unable to take a single step outside your house."
"“Aaahhhh…”"
At that moment, Tanimoto and Daido share the same thought about Shuto—"This guy is a sadistic devil."
It was they who turned Shuto into this sadistic devil, but Tanimoto and Daido had no time for such reflection.
"This room is cramped. The ceiling's low, so dropping you from high places won't hurt much. Let's change the method slightly."
Shuto grabs Tanimoto by the front of his shirt and, turning towards the wall behind him, hurls him like a javelin, slamming him hard against it.
Thump! "——Gah…!"
Tanimoto hits the wall face-first, causing a torrent of blood to spray from his nose. He falls to the floor from the back shelf, blood splattering everywhere.
"Ah, I threw him face-first, so his face got damaged. Oh well. One person having a broken face is fine."
Saying this, he casually picks Tanimoto up and returns him to his original position, then throws him at the wall again.
Thud! "Guhooo…!"
This time, he throws him with Tanimoto's head and legs grasped, making him hit the wall backward. The impact is still immense, causing damage severe enough to crack his spine.
"Aaaaah, aaaaaah…"
"Ah, that reminds me. There used to be a toy like this, you'd throw it against the wall. It was a sticky, human-shaped one…Petta-man or Pettan-doll, was it? You'd slam it against the wall, and it was weirdly satisfying. Nostalgic. Doing it again is amusing.
Especially using a hateful human being instead of a doll like that!"
He picks up Tanimoto, who is lying on the floor, like a toy he used to play with and returns him to his original position. Tanimoto screams and struggles, but Shuto breaks a few of his fingers, quieting him.
"You are just a toy now, made for me to vent my rage on. As a toy, you'll continue to be played with until you’re broken by me."
He grabs Tanimoto's legs and slams him against the wall again. The third impact dislocates his shoulder and cracks his ribs. He picks up the fallen Tanimoto and hurls him again. The fourth impact breaks part of his spine. Blood-mixed saliva drips from Tanimoto's mouth. Shuto picks him up and repeatedly throws him against the wall.
"A…a… Someone…help…me…"
"Including myself, everyone who was bullied by you thought and said things like this. You mocked them and continued to bully them. How does it feel to be on the receiving end now? How do you feel being in the same position as the people you tormented?"
"U-uh, aah… I'm…sorry…"
"By the way, I'm having fun! I'm enjoying thoroughly punishing you, you scum who bullied me! I know how you feel. Violence is fun, right!? I'm having an incredible amount of fun inflicting violence on you right now!!"
Shuto laughs gleefully, ending the wall-throwing, and begins breaking Tanimoto's tendons, fingernails, and teeth, just like he did with Nakazato. No matter how much Tanimoto cries, begs for help, or mercy, Shuto just scoffs and continues to "break" him.
"U…g…aah…I…don't…want…to…die…"
Multiple impacts against the wall cause severe spinal and rib damage and fractures, internal organ rupture, and intentional violence causing severe damage to his limbs and loss of nails and teeth. He also loses an eye. Tanimoto Isshin is thoroughly broken, just like Nakazato.
"I won't kill you. But I will push you to the brink of death. Or maybe I'll make you wish you were dead."
After kicking Tanimoto, who is now a rag doll, Shuto grabs Daido, who is cowering on the floor, by the hair and pulls him up. As he's about to kick Daido, who is desperately pleading for help, a voice rings out from behind Shuto.
"Hey, stop! You're going too far!"
It's a male student. His social standing in the class is mid-tier; he had laughed at Shuto when he was being bullied by Nakazato and the others.
His voice triggers other students to agree. Even their teacher, Aono, joins them, urging Shuto to stop.
"Huh?"
Shuto's only response is this one word. He glares at the student who spoke first. With just those two actions, the uproar falls silent instantly, thanks to the pressure of his skill "Intimidation."
The student, glared at by Shuto, pales and recoils.
"Stop? Going too far? What are you saying now? Someone from the delinquent group said something similar during the lunch break. Afterward, I learned something from him…"
Shuto interrupts the violence against Daido, throwing him to the floor, and approaches the mid-tier student. The student regrets his words the moment Shuto glares at him.
"Let me ask you. Have you ever tried to help me when those scum were bullying me? Did you ever tell Nakazato and the others to stop bullying me?
Did even one person try to save me from their bullying? Or were there people who were amused? You laughed at me behind my back as I was being beaten up, didn't you?"
No one answer. It's because it's true. Everyone looks down with ashen faces. Only Akemi looks down in regret.
"It's okay for me to be bullied, but you'll try to protect these guys? In other words, I was just a good show for you…
That's…incredibly infuriating!"
Thwack, Thud "Cough!? Ah…gah…"
Shuto approaches the mid-tier student and delivers two or three merciless knee strikes to his stomach. Shuto's knee strikes shatter the bones in his abdomen. In fact, several of the student's ribs are broken, he convulses, falls to the ground, and drools blood-mixed saliva.
"You know? You laughed at me the most, didn't you? I remember! You weren't satisfied with just watching, you made fun of me…You're also useless trash!"
Thump "Ugh, aah…"
The kick to the stomach makes the mid-tier student vomit large quantities of blood and stomach acid.
"Useless extras should just stay silent and cower. And you guys…I'll 'break' you all, just like Nakazato and these two, alright?"
Shuto glares at everyone, crushing the student underfoot. All the classmates glared at by Shuto become silent. Fueled by his renewed rage, Shuto subjects Daido to a horrific beating.
Crunch, Squish "U-ah, aaaaaah" Rip, Grind "Ah, begah, aaaaaah" Snap, Snap "I-aah, aaaaaah"
Just like Nakazato and Tanimoto, Shuto inflicts every conceivable torment on Daido. No matter how many times Daido apologizes, Shuto ignores him. Focused solely on breaking Daido, he repeatedly slams him against the wall until he is utterly broken.
"……Hyu…hyu…"
By the time Shuto, bored with the wall-slamming loop, releases Daido, he's barely alive and in critical condition. He's covered in blood and can barely breathe. If left unattended, he could go into cardiac arrest.
Several students begin crying, vomiting, or trying to escape through the window. Shuto immediately pulls them back from the window, breaking their limbs, crushing their will to escape.
"Revenge complete; three down."
Shuto mutters, looks at Ushirohara Ken, who is huddled in the corner of the classroom, and approaches him.
