Misfits of Class Z

Chapter 2.2 — Miss Show off: Enter, Class Z

Chapter 2.2 — Miss Show off: Enter, Class Z

Jan 02, 2026

The half naked guy picks up a stone and with explosive strength, nearly as strong as Abela, throws it at the dragon. The purple dragon gets hit, with a boom. It bends its long neck back and then turns at the guy. It roars a deafening noise and unbearable heat vibrates outwards from its giant maw. Dorothy feels the mere presence of the Avatar protect them from the violent outburst. 

The giant wolf snarls at the guy too- For a moment he seems up against two titans, 2 to 1. Monsters to a mere human how would he...

The young man proceeds to dissapear certianly faster than Asher even though even he seemed to be as fast as an instant. That made no sense at all, how could someone be faster that that ? It looked as if reality itself glitched for a moment. 

The two titans had vanished too, before they can manage anything they suddenly appear back in their humanoid forms. 

The young man walks toward the Avatar and two students. He holds his arms up side to side, each arm holding a person from their clothes. One was a tall purple haired lizard like gal and the other was a guy that somehow had darker hair than Dante.

Then the half naked guy spoke: 

"Sorry, teach I was napping." 

The dark complexioned half wolf starts barking: 

"Go to hell !" 

The Avatar seems way too used to this...

"Its allright Faust I dont think I’ll be doing any class today we have a newcomer could you show her around ?" 

Dorothy too was somehow used to the insanity of this place though seeing this... fantasy setting really was something. It would be a lie to say she didn't scream in her mind about the fantasy elements. Either way she waves at the guy. 

On closer inspection the man seemed to be her peer as well though his hair had somehow already greyed. It was slicked back excluding some parts that were bangs. He had really bad eyebags and had an over all tired gaze. He looked somewhat similar to Asher, having grey and white hair though Asher looked objectively better... Even though both of them were very disheveled looking people... 

"Oh. Hello." 

He casually throws the beasts away. 

"Why aren't you wearing a shirt ?"

"More breathing room."

He puts his hand out and Dorothy shakes it.

"Faust, Im the class Rep."

"Dolly, I've been here a day..." 

"Sorry if you had to deal with that Asher prick."

"He found me actually, Not that bad." 

"Then he must like you." 

"I think he likes people who aren't assholes to him, he seems lonely." 

"Theres a reason he is. Anyway most of us here are literal monsters who don't care about that stuff." 

Dante goes up to the stone pavement of the wallless classroom as all of them walk together.

"I'll just sit here..." 

He prepares to open his book. But ofcourse Dorothy couldn't let him go. She had plans for the poor guy ! 

"You're coming with ! Because, why not !" 

Though the avatar spoke. 

"Sorry, I think I'll have him Dolly." 

"U-u-uhm... Whhy ?" 

"Sorcery training, if you do not mind. Dante." 

... 

Dorothy and Faust leave the two magic users to their own devices. Faust walks her around the sub-dimension where Class Z resides. Turns out it wasn't exactly that large, well comparably to other structures in the Institute. It was still much larger than a football stadium in Dorothy's Verse. 

"You saw the class just now, it stretches far." 

He kicks the ground where there are some sigils.

"Any kind of interaction with the chains and doors will activate them when or since you're registered in the class." 

The ground before them bends, opening up like a giant maw and rises into a concrete paved battle ground... It looks unused. 

"This is for the students to blow off steam... They instead just fight everywhere and anywhere they want." 

"Huh... is that all there is to?" 

"Well everything is across about the same distance from the center, where the classroom is. You’ll never get lost since everything repeats after a while, so if you end up wandering too far just keep walking in the same direction. The opposite side of this has the lunch table and the bathrooms. Though, keep in mind there will be actual monsters and beasts in there, so use at your own risk I guess. And yeah thats it." 

Theres a moment of silence between them. Faust seems to be a chill person, he was somewhat quirky as everyone here was. Being half naked and all... considering there were genuine Goddesszilla ripoffs, that was pretty fine. 

"A quick tour, alright then class rep. What are the teachers like ?" 

"Well they each had to be strong enough to stop us if we rebelled. Turns out we pose such a threat together that we could technically start a civil war. Though ofcourse we monsters would never cooperate to that level." 

"No silly I meant subjects."

"Hm Sir Kagu, the person you were just with is our homeroom teacher and combat, Mr.Thompson is math..."

He did name a bunch more other people who taught other subjects, though none of them stuck to Dorothy's mind. She only knew of Sir Kagu who looked to be what could only be described as a deity and Mr. Thompson, Abela's uncle from her mothers side it sounded... 

"You have math here? Is it atleast easy math ?" 

"No one studies so the bell curve is..." 

He cursed. 

"That so ?" 

"Yeah Asher and Kenku always screws it whenever he shows up. You know, he can see the right question so its technically impossible for him to not cheat. But excluding those two the average is like 30 maybe 40 out of 100." 

"No one likes math here do they."

She chuckles, wait Kenku ? Who was that ?

"Who's Kenku ?"

"Apparently the most intelligent student ever recruited." 

"Ah that makes sense. So what exactly do they teach us to do?" 

"Well they’re nice enough to teach the other subjects and act like we are normal students. So if you wanna drop out you can become a normal agent or a secretary or whatever but most of us here are here to be extermination agents."

“Sir Kagu, is the head of extermination mission, recruits committee. When law has nothing to do but to try and stop an individual, the elite forces he creates are engaged.”

Kill or be killed. Die or fight. 

This is the realm of monsters Dolly had just been thrown in…

"So we're being trained to kill ? ...Guess it won't be hard for me..." 

She looks at her hand, opens her palm and then clenches it into a fist.

"Well frankly the organization would rather you get your target back alive but these are the kind of targets, that if you did kill them no one would judge you for doing so." 

"...so justified homicide." 

"Most students here just want to be able to kill without being judged." 

"Isn't that a red flag for teachers..." 

"It is, but the committee always chooses teachers that are strong enough to deal with us, remember the whole civil war thing ? They cannot risk that." 

"Right, anyone I should worry about ?"

"Are you strong ?" 

She points at a vacant tree.

"See that tree ?"

"Uhuh." 

"Now you don't." 

She draws a line, the tree vanishes and a torrent of hair explodes far away from them. The ground trembles as the shockwaves of ricocheting atmosphere reaches them. 

Faust looks at it, his gaze completely unfazed unlike how the others were. Even Asher had been unnerved by her ridiculous ability and yet, Faust didn't even blink...

"Make sure to show it if they try to bully you." 

"I also cut a hole into the air and broke the ozone layer I think- passed out when I did.

She shakes her hand very proud of herself. She had accepted this power extremely fast... and quite funnily Faust didn't care at all. 

"You can discuss it with sir Kagu, any other questions ?" 

"Do you like reading ?"

"Not much." 

So the two of them walk to the epicenter of the sub-dimension with nothing much to talk about Dorothy starts to question Faust... Hell, he had somehow subdued two giants in something that seemed to be faster than Asher... a person who could teleport as easy as breathing and on top of that he had an insanely level head. Maybe that was the most powerful tool at his disposal...

"Hey Faust ? What are your uh... powers ?" 

She tilts her head at him as they walk. 

He stops, so Dorothy turns at him. Dorothy feels something deep within Faust grab some metal or plastic. A wave of pixelation ruptures out of Faust, and travels across the ground and through Dolly and then everything returns to normal.

"Woah !" 

She looks up and sees a health bar on her head. Though it was kind of hard to read, directly being up on her head.

"Game interface and logic. It's surprisingly useful."

He puts his hand out and a wave of pixelation happens in reverse, comes from the distance, rushes towards Faust and shrinks on his body into nothing. 

"Thats so... interesting."

"Not really."

...

A few moments later, they reach the classroom. It seems the werewolf and the dragon have calmed down and are wrestling in human form. A few other students have left and others have arrived—

Sir Kagu, is teaching and a few other kids that are interested. 

"Having low mana isnt an excuse for acting like you have no stamina go on."

 He hits a Dante's back with an umbrella, making him stand straight. He doesn't lets out a yelp and then closes his eyes again. Paper slips continue to float around the boy.

Just as Dorothy was going to greet him, Sir Kagu opens his umbrella at her face. 

"Let him concentrate." 

He then closes the umbrella. She only catches a momentary glimpse but she's mostly sure the umbrella has terrible burns all over its edges... 

"O-ofcourse !" 

Sir Kagu then turns at her.

"So what do you think ?" 

"Its really calming, I...I like this place."

"Hmm maybe you do belong here. I was worried youd be too normal but if you do feel as you say so, youre plenty crazy as well... Hmmmmm... very well ! I look forward to our time young lady." 

He turns at Faust. 

"Hey, Faust. Keep them in check will you ? I have to go." 

"Yes sir."

Sir Kagu walks to the gate and then dissapears by entering through the door. The magical chains start wrapping themselves around it. 

Its as if... the sun is setting. Dissapearing, going far away... Even though physically the brightness of the place is the same, there is a sense that all the worlds light went with Kagu. 

Faust looks down and sighs. 

"Dolly just so you know, what’s gonna happen isn’t personal." 

"Wh-what do you mean-" 

The sun's presence diminishes further, untill it is a flicker of fire and then nothing. 

And when Kagus presence and thus his perception of the classroom completely dissipates, Dolly realizes just how many eyes are on her. There is a large and sudden movement, the flutter of steps bouncing across the ground as everyone sprinted and scattered around. 

Almost all of the students excluding the two titans suddenly surround Faust and Dorothy. 

Faust, keeps his composure. He leans down, everything around him pixelates. 

"Avalian Blade." 
 
"Dolly, duck." 

Dorothy without thinking, instinctively leaps to the ground. 

A large obsidian Odachi materializes in Fausts grip. He spins is entire body, grunting loudly to endure the weight of the large blade. The air itself starts to become apart from the edge of the blade as he spins. A cyclic slash sweeps above Dolly and then flies with blinding speed in all directions. 

Many of then get unnerved and dodge, jumping or leaning down. A few get hit and fall to the ground from the sheer weight behind the air slash. 

Fausts gets up as fast as he can, its very obvious the blade somehow weighs an incredible amount. Seen by the engravings on it reflecting the one on the church like school hall, it was certianly a gift from Kagu. Though Dorothy had no time to think about the enigmatic blade.

"Fight as you will. I won't be able to fully protect you anyways." 

Such occurrence begets Kagu's teachings to ones mind: 

"A person who cannot pull their own weight shouldn’t be in that class. Even Dante, the lowest rank in the class, can dish out attacks if push comes to shove." 

The air is suddenly filled with pixeleated black feathers that start to float down on to the ground. 

Dorothy finds herself in the great greeting tradition of Class Z, where people attack the newbie just for the hell of it, or maybe just to get a feel of their abilities. 

No matter how much of a genius you are, having had only 3 days to understand and having overused your powers twice in that time such battle would be close to impossible. 

But, she had Faust on her side and these people weren't bloodlusted. They were fighting because they were bored. She didn't have to defeat them. 

Just prove that she wasn't easy prey. 

What... wasn't easy prey to these beasts ?
