SWNOVELXO Chapter 117
Chapter 117: Self-Destructive Monkeys
Was it really that funny?
Hikigaya looked at the situation in class in confusion. Could it be that he had some special sense of humor?
“Hey! You damn dead fish-eyed freak, what are you saying!”
“Bastard! Who are you calling a monkey!”
Compared to the other students laughing, both Ike and Yamauchi were not laughing at all. Their faces were flushed bright red, looking exactly like two red-faced monkeys, which made them appear extremely comical.
Being humiliated like this in front of everyone made them hate Hikigaya even more than before.
Normally, they had no shame when loudly telling crude jokes and vulgar stories in class, but now, just one line from Hikigaya calling them “monkeys” had completely destroyed them. It was unclear where their shame was coming from.
“Can’t you two understand human speech?”
Hikigaya sneered. “Sorry, I don’t speak ‘monkey’. Just try to get by with what I say.”
As soon as Hikigaya finished speaking, a sudden laugh came from Sakura, who immediately realized her outburst and flushed red, quickly covering her mouth.
The other students were completely amused, and the entire D-class was filled with “laughter.” If someone didn’t know better, they might think D-class was watching a comedy show.
The more they laughed, the redder Ike and Yamauchi’s faces became. You could even see Ike’s ears turning red.
The only counter they had was to seize on the issue of “Hikigaya being the cause of Sudo being framed by C-class.” Hirata tried to step forward to calm them down and explain, but Ike and Yamauchi were so consumed by anger that they didn’t listen to Hirata. They kept shouting, blaming Hikigaya for the situation and demanding he take responsibility.
Hikigaya looked at these two idiots as if they were beneath him, sneering, “Monkeys are monkeys. Did you also take the words of the C-class students who said Hirata was their inside man, that Kushida was a villain, or that I have millions of personal points on me as truth?”
Ike and Yamauchi were immediately left speechless. Hirata sighed in exasperation. Horikita had already crossed her arms, looking on with amusement, while Kushida, carefully scanning the room, sighed in relief when she noticed no one was looking at her. She shot a fierce glare at Hikigaya, especially since she had just defended him.
“You… You’re just quibbling, yes, that’s what you’re doing!”
Ike suddenly shouted, as though remembering that word.
But this only earned him Hikigaya’s mockery: “Let me rephrase that. The girls from A-class said you two harassed them, using the excuse of ‘finding witnesses’ to flirt, and constantly making lewd jokes. Now, that’s not a quibble, that’s a fact, right?”
“You… You’re slandering us! I don’t know anything about it!”
Yamauchi suddenly shouted, but his panicked expression made everyone suspect him.
Hikigaya sneered at Yamauchi and Ike, thinking how much of a fool they were, as their emotions were written all over their faces.
“Oh? So, you didn’t shamefully chase after the A-class girls for their contact info, saying you were the ‘sun’ of D-class? Not only did Hirata admit he was inferior to you, but many girls in the class also wrote love letters to you, which you rejected. Have I said anything wrong, Yamauchi?”
Hikigaya looked at Yamauchi’s pale face and then turned to Ike, showing no restraint in his disgust, ” Do you think it’s not enough for you to appreciate those busty female elves, headlight female JKs, and swimsuit photos by yourself, and you have to send them to other girls to appreciate together? Oh, and don’t forget how you like to send them in the middle of the night. Are you in heat?”
The other students in D-class immediately gasped. Many of the girls looked at Ike and Yamauchi with contempt and disgust. Even the girls sitting near them couldn’t help but shift their desks and chairs away, as if they were seeing something gross.
Ike’s face had turned the color of pig liver.
“You… How do you know that! No, I didn’t! Hikigaya, you’re just making things up!”
Yamauchi shouted at Hikigaya, “It must be because you’re jealous that so many girls like me! That’s why you’re slandering me!”
Yamauchi seemed to be lost in his own world, unable to be awakened.
Ike quickly joined in, loudly cursing Hikigaya, claiming he was being wronged, that Hikigaya was defaming him.
“You have no proof! This is clearly slander! I’ll sue you! I’ll sue you until you go bankrupt!”
Ike puffed out his chest, looking full of confidence as he shouted loudly.
The other students looked at Ike, wondering if maybe he had actually been wronged.
Hikigaya looked at the idiotic duo with pity, “Is your brain full of **? Is that why you’re so stupid? You think I know all this because I’ve just been guessing? The girls from A-class have already filed complaints with the student council about you two idiots harassing them. Forget about evidence. You two lustful monkeys have already been about to drain the class points!”
At first, everyone had been sitting back, enjoying the drama, but after hearing Hikigaya talk about the class points being deducted, Ike and Yamauchi became the center of everyone’s scorn, facing insults and blame from the entire class.
“Hirata, Kushida, and the others are busy helping, and you two? You couldn’t even help but go harass the girls from other classes under the excuse of ‘finding witnesses,’ and now you’ve been reported to the student council. It’s embarrassing to be in the same class as you two! You deserve to eat wild vegetable meals every day!”
“No wonder the girls from other classes were giving me weird looks, it’s all because of you two monkeys!”
The other boys in class finally realized what was going on.
Hikigaya didn’t stop there. He added a final insult: “You two enjoy all the perks of being in this class, yet you’re ruining its image. Smooth-talking, selfish, greedy, and lecherous… The things you two have done make everyone in this class hate you.”
Yet, the “good guy” Hirata still tried to step in to help, but that only made everyone criticize Ike and Yamauchi even more. Everyone knew how much Hirata had sacrificed for the class, but they had ruined it all, and beyond the anger over losing class points, everyone felt it was unfair to Hirata.
The situation quickly escalated.
Everyone seemed to have forgotten that it was Hikigaya who had been attacked at first, and now it was the two idiots who were being publicly condemned.
Hikigaya looked coldly at the two idiots, who were now scurrying away, and felt no sympathy at all.
In fact, he had expected this situation to unfold. What disappointed him was that it was these two idiots who had finally stepped up to challenge him. It was exactly what he had predicted.
