There was a silence as everyone watched Narisa Zeno and Seru Akita walk to Tendou Yagami’s side. Nasida Yuki and Furitari Yasaki gulped, their body tensing more as they realized that something has changed.
Narisa Zeno walked towards the two boys whom had been fighting, his 187 centimeter build towered above most, only Tendou Yagami was his height, Seru Akita was shorter by two centimeters. Standing there, everyone was able to easily see him when he was one of the tallest in the room.
Standing next to Tendou Yagami now, Narisa Zeno put a hand into the pocket of his opened jacket, his eyes narrowing ever so lightly.
As he stopped, his body automatically let out an intense aura, an aura that felt as if he was close to beating someone up. But he didn’t, he nodded his head as Tendou Yagami turned to him. Then, he turned to Seru Akita who was on his left. “Go get Ushi Hina. We will begin.”
Seru Akita smiled at once, a grin that almost appeared devious as he licked his teeth, “On it.” Then, as he looked at Nasida Yuki, he smiled as he winked and turned away to find Ushi Hina.
Narisa Zeno watched as Seru Akita walked away. Then he turned to Tendou Yagami who had remained silent. “Did you do anything yet?”
Tendou Yagami merely said, “No, they stopped before I was able to do anything.” Saying so, he sent a glare at the two whose backs were still bent and not looking up.
Everyone around them were still gathered, only now, no one was willing to make a noise, much less even breathe.
“You two, how’s the situation on Karma and Kaneki’s side?” Narisa Zeno wasn’t going to get physical yet. He was beginning his plan now, he needed to be meticulous with his actions. Plus, if he did beat them up, Suon Karma and Noru Kaneki were going to find him too.
Nasida Yuki and Furitari Yasaki looked at each other for a second, as if they were waiting to see who would answer first. As they finally straightened up and looked at Tendou Yagami and Narisa Zeno, Nasida Yuki was the first to reply.
“He’s been well,” Nasida Yuki didn’t say much, almost biting his lips as he saw Tendou Yagami’s eyes narrow. He couldn’t help it as his hand rubbed his wrist, almost as if the pain had come back. “Kaneki hasn’t been doing much…”

“Karma has been well too, he is trying to stay down for the moment.” Furitari Yasaki responded, his eyes dilated as he said so and turned to look at a different angle.
“I see,” Narisa Zeno said as Tendou Yagami turned to him.
“Do you need me to do anything?” Tendou Yagami asked as he turned over to Narisa Zeno.
Truthfully, there was no need for him to hide the fact that he was now in Lucifer. He was thankful to Narisa Zeno for it though, but he knew that it would only remain like that for a while before it was exposed.
Narisa Zeno shook his head lightly as he replied, “No, at least not for now. I will see the situation first. I’ve already spent a month waiting, I’m sure that by now, the others are skeptical about what my next actions are.”
And that was true. He had kept quiet for one month, letting the other three gangs run wild with whatever they were doing. All of it was spent checking to see every rule they had broken from the peace plan they had first signed. Narisa Zeno watched from the side as everyone clamored to get Tsukki Ren to join them, Lucifer stayed as silent as possible throughout this.
Narisa Zeno had also been checking out the person who was supposedly coming for him, and getting all the hints possible about the robberies and thieveries happening around him. Now, he was sure that one of the person from that gang was hiding in their school and investigating them. He wasn’t sure who it was just yet, but he had an idea.
Just then, a woman’s voice called out, “Zeno. What do you need from me?” Ushi Hina walked in, her eyes focusing on Narisa Zeno. Then, as she turned her eyes to look at the person next to him, her eyes widened. In shock, in terror, and in disbelief. Her footsteps slowed down considerably. “You….you joined Lucifer…”
Tendou Yagami looked at Ushi Hina who was almost frozen in fright. He couldn’t help but raise his lips in a smirk, “I did.”
Ushi Hina couldn’t help but panic. She had eyes all over the school, people listening in on every little detail but she hadn’t known about this at all. How long had Tendou Yagami been in Lucifer? Was this why they had been quiet for a whole month, not doing anything? No, she couldn’t understand how Narisa Zeno made Tendou Yagami join in without getting a rejection, even she was unable to do so and her gang had the most members. Although Lucifer was small, they were stronger.
“Ushi Hina, welcome. I have some matters I wish to speak about with you.” Narisa Zeno said in the midst of Ushi Hina’s silent struggle. His eyes looked at Seru Akita who stood behind Ushi Hina and signaled for him to make a move. Seru Akita responded at once and began moving, he needed to get informers to visit Suon Karma and Noru Kaneki and talk about the punishment Narisa Zeno was going to hand out.
“You two, come with me.” Seru Akita said as he dragged Nasida Yuki and Furitari Yasaki out by the collar while the two didn’t even struggle to break free.
Ushi Hina had saw the way Seru Akita manhandled the two from Arch and Sin. She had also saw how Narisa Zeno didn’t even say anything when he clearly saw that. This was a big sign that something very bad was going to happen, and Ushi Hina couldn’t help but tremble.
“I-is there something I should know, Zeno?” Ushi Hina’s voice slightly shook at the beginning of her sentence as Tendou Yagami’s eyes fell on her. She was strong, that’s why she was able to become the leader of one of the four strongest gangs in Takimura. But, she knew clearly just how dangerous both of these men in front of her was.
Narisa Zeno looked at Ushi Hina and then he smiled. But his smile couldn’t hide the clear danger from within them. “You know, Hina, I thought that I could’ve at least trust you. I gave you one month to prove me wrong. That’s quite a bit of time, thirty-one days in total. You signed a peace plan with me. You, Kaneki, and Karma did in fact. Do you know what you’ve done wrong?”
Tendou Yagami looked at Narisa Zeno who kept his smile. Except he could notice that even though he was smiling, there was a bit of force within them. He too, couldn’t hide the smirk that began its way to his face. He had made the correct decision.
(Male lead’s love meter is at 38%.)
Ushi Hina knew that Narisa Zeno was testing her but she also knew that no matter what she did, she was at a dead end. The only thing she was glad about was that she had stopped pestering Tsukki Ren already while Noru Kaneki and Suon Karma were still doing so.
“Zeno, let’s talk somewhere more private first.” Ushi Hina said as she eyed the large crowd that surrounded them.
Narisa Zeno looked at Ushi Hina with eyes that seemed to ponder deeply. Then, he finally nodded. “Alright, lead the way.” Saying this, he turned to Tendou Yagami. “Are you coming?”
Tendou Yagami nodded his head, “Yes, I want to see what will happen. Also, in any case of ambushes, I should be able to help you.” Saying this, he smirked as he returned Narisa Zeno’s gaze before he turned to look at Ushi Hina with a glowering pierce.
Ushi Hina’s body almost shook from Tendou Yagami’s gaze. Many didn’t know about just how terrible this man was, he could rival Narisa Zeno if he wanted to but he didn’t. Now that the two were in the same gang, it was simply death for the other gangs. Narisa Zeno alone was able to defeat them all, throwing Tendou Yagami into the mix was basically a suicidal act. Now, even if they wanted to, the other gangs would be unable to retaliate no matter what they do.
Finally, Ushi Hina shook her head as she began walking out of the cafeteria, Narisa Zeno and Tendou Yagami following behind her. They were going to her hideout since it was the most desolate spot in the Takimura, plus, it was the only place she trusted enough to know that there were no spies.
The walk was short but the time seemed to pass like it had frozen. Ushi Hina could feel Tendou Yagami’s piercing gaze against her back that made her shiver in fear. Anyone would know that Tendou Yagami didn’t fear anything and he was also a reckless fighter. He didn’t mind breaking his own body, in fact, he barely felt pain. That’s why it was so easy for him to beat others and leave them with broken bones. It was because no matter how many times he was hit, he didn’t feel it at all.
When they arrived, Ushi Hina brought a key and unlocked the room. Opening it, there were many desks and chairs inside with papers attached to boards.
Narisa Zeno didn’t worry about skipping classes, Takimura had a special spot for its students, or gang members. They didn’t care as long as you get caught up on your own time, especially now that the principal was his own uncle too.
Ushi Hina pointed at two chairs for them to sit on as she sat on her own. Her every breath seemed to be forced out.
Narisa Zeno and Tendou Yagami sat next to each other. Narisa Zeno stared at Ushi Hina while Tendou Yagami scanned the place, making sure that there wasn’t someone listening in.
Narisa Zeno couldn’t help it as his fingers tapped the table in front of him. In the silent room, it made a piercing sound as the rhythm continued. It felt like seconds passing by and Ushi Hina almost broke out in sweat.
“Zeno, I know that I’ve broke our peace plan, I admit fully to that. But I have already stopped asking Tsukki Ren since days ago. Of course, I broke the plan and I will have to compensate it, but Karma and Kaneki are the ones still asking Tsukki Ren. I know that I will be punished according to what we’ve agreed, and I won’t fight against it. I just…just don’t do anything against my members. That’s all that I asked.” Ushi Hina finally spat out, unable to hold it back anymore.
There was a silence after her words. Then, a laugh broke out.
“Is that so? Do you think that with just that, everything is settled so easily?”

Dang! This arc is super interesting to me, a completely different high school experience to what I have read before.
This is even more ruthless than my school and I grew up in the ‘hood, ‘hood.
I love this arc! It’s so rare to see yakuza/gang and it’s so well-written as well (>w<) and OP MC is just an added bonus xD
Thank you for the chapter, loving this story!
Don’t go easy or they will dance on your corpse!
Thanks for the chapter!
