Chapter 52
Chapter 052: Look, it’s simple, right? A world where no one gets hurt is complete!
The first-year students indeed exploded.
Today was the sixth day since the new students enrolled.
Most of the new students were still immersed in the fantasy that the school was amazing — no tuition fees, free accommodation, pocket money, and direct recommendations for graduation. It felt like heaven. They hoped to enjoy a nice campus life here.
But now…
They were suddenly caught off guard and left in confusion.
The first to notice that the student council members had arrived at the lower-year classroom building was Katsuragi from Class 1-A.
He had submitted his student council application along with Yahiko the day before.
The student council in this school had immense power. Sometimes, they even acted on behalf of the school administration. From what he had learned from the upperclassmen about joining school clubs, the student council president even had the power to directly intervene in special exams.
This was quite terrifying.
Because the essence of this school was to make students compete with each other by class.
The specific implementation was through repeated special exams. The scores obtained in these exams determined the ranking of classes. By the time students reached their third year and graduated, the ones who could maintain their position as Class A would be the representatives of the school’s graduation.
They would then receive a series of rewards from the school.
It was the peak of life.
Upon realizing this, Katsuragi set his sights on the student council position.
He didn’t aim to become the president, but if he could become a member, he could gain more information and possibly serve his class.
Of course, there might even be a chance to compete for the president’s position later.
After all, the president was a student too, and they would graduate eventually.
So joining the student council early might provide an opportunity.
Katsuragi was a careful and steady person.
So when he noticed that the student council president, Horikita, had specifically come to the lower-year building during lunch break, he immediately paid attention.
Now,
He was observing from the crowd of new students as the student council members worked.
He saw Horikita himself writing on the small blackboard next to the bulletin board.
First-Year Class A: 996 points
First-Year Class B: 834 points
First-Year Class C: 611 points
First-Year Class D: 530 points
Hmm… this number, he knew.
He knew this represented the evaluation scores for the four classes.
The ranking of classes in this school was fluid. Only the class evaluation scores determined the ranking.
If another class’s evaluation score exceeded Class A’s, it would be crowned as the new Class A.
Similarly, if the original Class A was surpassed by another class, it would drop down.
After learning from their homeroom teacher, Mr. Majima, about the class evaluation score system, he and Yahiko went to investigate.
They visited the first floor of the second and third-year buildings and saw the small blackboards and their scores.
They confirmed that the second and third-year classes were indeed competing in this manner.
Class A always managed to maintain a lead over the other classes.
Just like now.
Class 1-A was outstanding. Out of a base score of 1000, they had only been deducted 4 points.
This was a reasonable result, but also an unbelievable one.
Because it suddenly occurred to him — wasn’t the rule that the class evaluation scores for all four classes would be revealed after the entire month had ended, on the 1st of the next month?
And now…
Why was it announced directly?
Had the exams ended early, or was there a problem?
…
Meanwhile, for Class B…
The students of Class B had heard that the student council members were at the bulletin board filling in the data.
“Ichinose…”
Coming down from the upper floors with Class B’s students was a cute girl with short golden hair.
She was Kushida Kikyo from Class 1-D. She was well-liked and had a strong sense of approachability.
Recently, she had started interacting with students from other classes. More accurately, she had become friends with Ichinose Honami from Class B.
It could be said that Kushida liked interacting with students from other classes.
Because the quality of the students of Class B was very high. Almost everyone was like a little angel — kind, pure, and optimistic, like winners in life.
And the atmosphere in Class B was great. Even though only a few days had passed, the students in Class B had already formed a spontaneous trust in each other, almost as if they had a central figure in the class.
That would be Ichinose Honami.
She had long, golden-pink hair, delicate and exquisite features, and a very good figure.
But what caught people’s attention the most was her approachability.
Kushida thought she was already very approachable, but when it came to Ichinose, she felt slightly inferior in that regard.
Even though the school had just started, Ichinose already had more than 50 friends.
This was really frustrating.
Of course, Kushida had become good friends with Ichinose now.
So, that could be considered something to comfort herself with.
“This is…”
Ichinose Honami from Class B stared at the small blackboard that the student council members were filling out.
She saw that her Class B score was 834 points.
“This is…”
Ichinose noticed that Kushida was looking at the information on the bulletin board.
The bulletin board?
She quickly looked over as well.
And she too noticed the information on the bulletin board.
Class 1-D, Hikigaya Hachiman, had been deducted 50 points from their class evaluation score due to damaging a camera.
“This school…”
“It might really be something else” Ichinose said.
Even though she didn’t say it outright, she also felt there were various things in the school that needed attention.
…
Now, for Class 1-C.
There were no students from Class 1-C present.
Hmm.
Class 1-C was still in the process of consolidating.
So, even though they were the class closest to the bulletin board, not many were paying attention to it.
Now, in the bathroom.
“Ryuen, you son of a—are you shameless?!”
“Shut up! You have no choice but to obey me!”
A man with red, center-parted hair held another man by the neck and slammed him against the wall.
This was Ryuen Kakeru from Class 1-C. After coming to this school, he discovered how rich the rewards were for students.
He brought out his old tactics.
He had been a delinquent in middle school.
And now,
He was using those same tactics—violence—to take control of his class.
He was very strong, but being strong alone was useless, so he targeted the strongest person in the class.
Albert.
He was 2 meters tall, a mixed-race student, very muscular, and looked like a giant. His strength was as formidable as his appearance.
Of course, the next day, Ryuen was defeated by Albert, but that didn’t matter. Ryuen used harassment tactics, constantly bothering Albert, even attacking him while he was in the restroom.
And now,
Albert was desperate, so he followed Ryuen’s orders.
Ryuen was now taking control of the male students in the class.
As for the female students… Hmph, when half the class’s boys were under control, did the girls have any other choices?
Class 1-C was soon going to have only Ryuen Kakeru as a Leader and voice.
…
Elsewhere,
On the rooftop.
