He runs into Saizo again.

Morning came, and Tsukane was walking from the dorms to the school. He was both more and less nervous than he would have been had he not amped himself up. On one hand, he felt he had the ability to hold his own here, but on the other, he wasn't sure he should use it recklessly. Getting a reputation for beating someone up would only make it even harder than it already was to keep his head down. And he still didn't know for sure what tier he was at with the rest of the students yet.

He came to the conclusion that it would be best if he avoided starting any fights, but remained ready to try and finish them. That seemed to be the best approach... Unfortunately, he already had someone coming towards him, looking for such a fight.

"Hey, wait up Lover boy," Saizo said, causing Tsukane to turn, and felt himself be grabbed by the front of his uniform. Saizo picked him up, and slammed him against a concrete wall, making Tsukane wince... Before he realized, it hadn't hurt. The wince had been out of anticipation, reflex due to expecting said impact. But despite the **** Saizo had slammed him into the wall with, he barely even felt it. Seemed like the durability he'd gained from the Note was doing its job.

"Seems like you had a lot of fun with Moka yesterday, and you're gonna pay for it today," Saizo taunted. "What's your true form anyway?"

"My... True form?" Tsukane asked. That was a good question actually. He probably shouldn't just say some random monster though, lest he be expected to prove it, or otherwise contradict it, he didn't know enough about what monsters were actually like to risk that. Better to let people speculate for now. So he instead tried to chuckle, but it came out nervously.

"Sorry Saizo, my lips are sealed on that... You know the rules, and while you don't seem to care much about them, I do..." This seemed to annoy Saizo, who slammed his fist into the concrete above Tsukane's head, shattering it like it was nothing. Which, to many monsters here, it was. He then dropped Tsukane, who looked up to see his hand was larger, more monstrous.

"You think you're cool, don't you, getting to spend time you don't deserve with a girl like Moka," Saizo snarled at Tsukane. "I know the reason you don't tell me what you are, you're clearly a low class monster, who has no business getting between me and my prize... Any monster that actually had balls would have at least tried intimidating me..."

He then snorted in irritation, and turned away. "Don't let me catch you near Moka again. If you even speak to her again, I'll kill you." He started to walk away, and Tsukane stared after him, mind racing. Was he... Going to let this slide? Or was he going to do something about it?
