"I choose the punishment of 100 lashes!" Silence fell over the room once again as all eyes turned to Kamuro. Sakayanagi spun around abruptly and exclaimed,

"What you just said indicates that you want to get rid of me, right? After all, it's because of your inability to control the traitor that our class ended up at the bottom. And now you're placing all the blame on your henchman. Fair enough. I want to stay here to see how strong you'll be after being crushed like that."
