Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e S2 Episode 12 English Subbed

Ryuen continues torturing Kei, saying that the mastermind abandoned her. He claims that the mastermind set Kei up during the Special Test on the ship — when she was lured to a secluded part wherein Shiho and Rika bullied her; Kei nearly gave in to revealing Kiyotaka but kept her composure, upon which Ryuen threatened to expose her past bullying, to which she accepts if it means helping Kiyotaka. Kiyotaka flops on the karaoke plan and instead goes to Ms. Chabashira, asking her to stop Ryuen from harming Kei for Class-D to advance; she agrees after Kiyotaka enlisted the help of Manabu to “eliminate” Ryuen in exchange for Suzune joining the student council. Kiyotaka arrives at the construction site to save Kei, revealing himself as the mastermind, much to everyone’s surprise.

Ryuen threatens to beat up Kiyotaka in the face of sheer violence and orders his underlings to do so. Kiyotaka dispatches Albert and Ishizaki, then proclaims that he was in control of the entire war, duping Ryuen into believing otherwise; upon hearing that, Mio goes to fight Kiyotaka but gets knocked out. Ryuen and Kiyotaka engage in an all-out brawl as the two taunt each other as to who will win; Kiyotaka confidently proclaims that he won’t lose, while Ryuen’s whole philosophy lies on the concept that violence is true power. Kiyotaka retaliates that he’s numb to pain. When gaining the upper hand, he violently beats in Ryuen’s face and claims that he is emotionless and mundane, driving fear and confusion into Ryuen. Kiyotaka goes to comfort a scared Kei and reassures her that he will come to save her no matter what as she cries in his arms.
