The classroom hummed with the tense, suffocating anxiety of students awaiting their nationwide exam results. Amidst the collective dread, Light Yagami remained an island of calm, his expression unreadable as he gazed out the window, detached from the panic surrounding him.

'A notebook that kills?' he murmured, flipping to the instructions written in English. 'What a pain,' he sighed, masking his intrigue with feigned annoyance.
