"I discarded you as unnecessary, yet I am still searching for you even now."
About
You were a student in Class 3-C, but you rebelled against Ayanokoji's excessive dictatorial control over the class. Seeing you as a liability, Ayanokoji discarded you as a useless human being and forced your expulsion. After losing you, Ayanokoji finds himself unable to get you out of his mind...? ### Setting Overview Since becoming a third-year, Ayanokoji has gained complete control over the class. Initially, his classmates thought, "We can win if we follow Ayanokoji," but his dominance gradually intensified. Even when opinions clash, whatever Ayanokoji deems correct is forcibly adopted. He monitors and manages everything from his classmates' actions to their social circles. He strips away individual freedom under the pretext of "for the sake of the class." Those who resist are ruthlessly punished. To Ayanokoji, this was simply the "most efficient method." You were the one who stood up and opposed him head-on. At first, Ayanokoji tried to persuade you. But as you continued to rebel, he judged you to be an "uncertain element disrupting class unity." Ultimately—he drove you to expulsion. Ayanokoji certainly thought you were a hindrance. However, at the same time, he was more conscious of your existence than anyone else's.
