They actually came over two by two.
He did not hate this kind of thing. He even liked it a lot. But today there were only three exams. Added up like this, would that not be just six people?
If the number were small then fine, but just the few elves Leticia that Iris brought already made four, not to mention the three elf princesses, the three mermaid singers, and also Lala, Sakurase Shino, Tsukishiro Sayo and the others.
"Hehe! Does the club president not like it? Just now Iris and the others were the petite type, we are the full figured type. Everyone takes turns accompanying you for the exams, President."
Elusi directly kissed Hachiman, her whole body soaking in the endless life aura that kept flowing out of him. Only after quite a while did she let go, but her arms were still tightly wrapped around his waist, her face red as she leaned on his shoulder, watery eyes looking at him with burning desire.
"Then what about the next exam this afternoon? What type will it be?"
Hachiman gently stroked Elusi's slender, round, fair long legs, brushing away the water droplets on her glossy jade thighs, and also lowered his head to kiss her soft and tempting cherry lips.
Mermaids really are made of water. Just now the succubus Amaki Lily at most only dripped a bit more water. Elio and Elusi could really have water squeezed out of their skin.
Luckily he had long mastered cleaning magic. No matter how much water they produced, there was no need to worry.
"Of course it is the mixed type. Other than making you go to the student council at noon, the rest of the time you have to stay with us, President."
Elusi glanced at Lala beside her. Seeing that she was not that anxious, she could not wait to hug Hachiman tighter and ask for assistance.
In their world, many female mermaids lay eggs and let the males in the tribe incubate them, completely not needing this kind of assistance from a club president.
They needed the president's help only because they had stayed too long in the human world with no magic.
But now she was extremely glad that she needed the president's help.
This feeling of using public business for private gain was just too great.
Using the excuse of unavoidable love to ask the president for help every day.
If not for this reason, the three of them, Ayla, Elio, and Elusi, mermaids with low status and only good singing voices, would probably have to fight with others to get the president's favor.
"Yui, and Honami, come over, come over. Let us play together."
While Elusi was fooling around with Hachiman, Lala also kissed Hachiman to absorb some of his energy. But she did not rush to join them. Instead she turned to look at Ichinose Honami and the others who were standing there dumbfounded. She waved enthusiastically to the pink haired Ichinose Honami and Yuina and invited them warmly.
Even though she also liked hugging Hachiman alone to sleep, she felt that everyone being happy together was the real happiness.
"Me? Now?", Ichinose Honami pointed at herself in a daze, unable to believe that Lala and Elusi came here just to drag them who were in the middle of an exam into this.
In the last exam, they did not even know when Nijika finished.
So in this exam, she had to do it right in front of everyone's eyes?
"Come on, come on, Lala and the others have invited us."
Yuina, who had been holding it in for a long time, did not give Ichinose Honami time to think. She stood up and pulled the still hesitant Ichinose Honami to join Lala and Elusi.
Honami had not been playing with them lately. That would not do. They had to make Honami honestly play together with them.
Besides Honami, Yumiko, Marin, Nijika, and Gabriel were all not allowed to escape.
Their Class F for Year One had to be united. They would advance and retreat together.
With the cognitive barrier of the Amaki Lily gone, leaving only a small barrier made of layered magic like invisibility, soundproofing, and illusion, the back row of the classroom where Kitagawa Marin, Miura Yumiko, and Ijichi Nijika sat immediately fell into torment.
It was not only because of the commotion from Ichinose Honami, Yuina, Lala, and Elusi, but also because of Hachiman's teaching aura buff.
The temporary learning talent granted within the teaching aura's range was not limited to any particular subject.
At this very moment, whether they wanted it or not, they would absorb all kinds of knowledge from the people around them that made their cheeks burn and their breathing quicken.
They had never seen anything like this. Just seeing those scenes was already embarrassing enough. Now even more, their minds were constantly being filled with knowledge that children should not be learning.
Still, among the Kessoku Band, only Ijichi Nijika was close enough with Hachiman to barely hold on.
Girls like Minami and Rin, the gyaru who were the earliest investors in Hachiman, could not hold back at all, and of course there was no need to.
Their hearts itching, they did not care about anything else. They hurriedly finished their exam papers and turned on the shared sensation function of the pink wristbands on their wrists. When Yuina and Ichinose Honami could no longer hold out, they would immediately go up to replace them.
"Yumiko... um, since everyone is like this, then we..."
Kitagawa Marin stole a few glances at Minami and Rin, those gyaru who showed no shame at all and were getting bolder and more arrogant. She slowly put down the pen she was almost about to snap, took a deep breath, and turned to Miura Yumiko behind her, who was also peeking over at Hachiman's side, and spoke in a small hesitant voice.
Her relationship with Hachiman was not at the level of Nijika and Hachiman.
Not counting the Elf Forest themed cosplay shoot, she had only suffered together with Yumiko in STARRY's break room, watching Yumiko lose all face.
Logically, with how things were between her and Hachiman, and with how her good friends all basically had messy ambiguous relationships with Hachiman, there was nothing wrong for her to be like Nijika.
After all, she did not have no feelings for Hachiman. If they successfully confirmed their relationship, then later when she went to the Rurikawa household to hold a cosplay themed party, she would not have to struggle over what she should or should not do. Some bold cosplays she felt too embarrassed to shoot, she could also let Hachiman help her take the photos.
But now only she was left by Yumiko's side. No matter what, she had to be together with Yumiko. If Yumiko did not go, she could not go either.
She absolutely could not be like Nijika, sneaking off first and then coming back to apologize to Yumiko. What use was repenting afterward about being possessed by a moment of madness and feeling sorry to Yumiko.
"That girl is still sitting there without moving, right?"
Miura Yumiko did not answer Kitagawa Marin directly. Her gaze went past Elusi, Lala, and the other pink haired beauties on Hachiman, and stared straight at Gabriel, who was sitting on Hachiman's other side with her head down, seemingly completely unable to hear Elusi's loud singing beside her.
In the back row now, Gabriel was the only one not participating. They had not even seen Gabriel do anything overly intimate with Hachiman in the classroom.
Clearly before, Gabriel and Hachiman were always passing books to each other and slacking off in class, but now it was like Gabriel alone was special.
That feeling made Miura Yumiko inexplicably unhappy. Should it not be that Gabriel joined in first, and then she would be half pushed and half persuaded to join last.
How could she let Hachiman get to her before that Gabriel girl.
"...", Kitagawa Marin looked at Miura Yumiko a bit speechless.
'Tsundere, this is definitely tsundere.'
Even though Yumiko did not have any conflict with Gabriel.
It was just because Gabriel was usually closer to Hachiman, and now seeing Gabriel not show an embarrassing side before them first, she would rather keep enduring herself than expose her own shameful side before Gabriel.
Still, realizing that Yumiko was not rejecting playing together with Hachiman, but was just stuck on some strange details, Kitagawa Marin let out a sigh of relief.
At times like this, even if she could not persuade Yumiko, as long as they dragged Gabriel in, Yumiko would naturally soften and let Hachiman knead her. They would not need to keep worrying.
"What about Nijika. What do you plan to do?"
Kitagawa Marin took a deep breath, trying hard to pretend she could not see or hear the commotion on Hachiman's side. She turned to look at Ijichi Nijika, who was lightly standing on tiptoe with her legs together.
If Yumiko did not join, she also could not join, but Nijika had already sneaked off and eaten first. If she went over to play with Yuina and the others now, Yumiko probably would not say anything.
It might even be that if Nijika went over and got bullied by Hachiman, Yumiko would get angry and run over to replace Nijika and get bullied by Hachiman instead.
"I want to go to the infirmary to calm down."
Ijichi Nijika was silent for a moment, then slowly picked up her finished exam paper and stood up, preparing to report to the proctor, Teacher Mizuho Kagami, that she felt unwell and wanted to hide in the infirmary for a bit.
What could she do. What could she possibly do.
In the last exam, she had only lasted less than one third of the time. Now she still had not recovered. What could she do.
Even now, sitting in front of Hachiman and clearly feeling the movement of the desk behind her, she already could not stay.
For the first time, she realized that having too good a brain was not always a good thing.
She could actually form incredibly vivid scenes in her head from the vibration frequency of the desk and the breathing sounds of Lala, Elusi, Minami, and Rin.
If she turned on the shared sensation button on her wristband now, she might even automatically replace the female lead in her imagination with herself.
Enough already.
No wonder Student Council President Kaede said that night when they were studying magic together that unless it was to learn magic, she absolutely did not want to learn with the teaching aura.
So Kaede had already predicted this. If her learning also relied on the teaching aura, her head would probably be full of this kind of stuff in the future.
Gabriel, who had been keeping her head down, looked up at Ijichi Nijika going to hand in her paper. Seeing that no one stopped Nijika from running away, she also stood up expressionlessly to turn in her paper.
"Marin, we are leaving too."
Seeing this, Miura Yumiko, who had been watching Gabriel, immediately pulled the still hesitant Kitagawa Marin to stand up and go turn in their papers.
Even though the sounds that made their minds restless kept ringing in their ears, their condition today was very good. They could even peek while keeping their hands moving to answer questions, and they finished quickly.
Now that Gabriel had run off, and they were not joining the fun, they also had to run. Otherwise it was just too torturous.
"Teacher Kagami, we do not feel well. We want to hand in our papers early and go to the infirmary to find Teacher Mikado."
"Eh? Why are so many people handing in early?"
On the podium, Mizuho Kagami, with her smooth wine red hair draped over her shoulders and a white undershirt that could not hide her mature, full body, was a little distracted. Suddenly seeing several students come up to hand in their papers at once, she stared at them in surprise.
By the rules, it was not yet time to hand in and leave.
But Kitagawa Marin and Ijichi Nijika all said they had finished their papers and that they did not feel well. Facing these top students who usually performed well, Mizuho Kagami could not bring herself to force them to stay.
"Then Ijichi and you all be careful. Do not wander around. Go rest in the infirmary, and do your best in the afternoon exam too."
After telling Ijichi Nijika, innocent Gabriel, Kitagawa Marin, and Miura Yumiko, these four blonde beauties, a few words, Mizuho Kagami could not help but pick up the exam papers they had just handed in and look at them carefully.
She had just glanced over them quickly and saw they were all filled out with no omissions, so she let them go.
But now looking closely, she noticed something strange.
Was this exam too easy? How could these top students not only hand in early, but also have no obvious mistakes?
Mizuho Kagami looked at the time on her phone, then at the four densely written papers, her eyes full of shock.
This did not look like copying from each other.
Even copying from an answer key would not be this fast, not to mention they handed in at the same time.
Or was it that the teachers misjudged the students' learning level and made this exam too easy?
With deep confusion, Mizuho Kagami put down the papers, walked down from the podium, carefully stepping in her high heels that easily made noise, slowly patrolling the classroom to check the students' exams.
'Rurikawa... Ichinose... Sugisaki... Kotegawa...'
Mizuho Kagami was extremely shocked to find that although Sugisaki Kasumi and Kotegawa Yui had not finished yet, Rurikawa Tsubaki, Ichinose Ayano, and Horikago China and the others were almost done. Just like Ijichi Nijika and the others who handed in early, she could not see any obvious mistakes.
'So many perfect scores in one class. This...'
Mizuho Kagami's heart jumped, and she suddenly looked toward Hachiman sitting in the last row.
'Hachiman...'
That day, as if possessed, she had unconsciously lifted her high heel in front of Teacher Kirisu Mafuyu and gently rubbed Hachiman's calf with her black stockings.
Luckily Teacher Kirisu was sitting next to her and did not notice her little move. Otherwise she really would have been mortified.
But even if Teacher Kirisu did not notice, Hachiman, who was being rubbed, definitely knew. She hoped Hachiman would not misunderstand anything.
That day she had also egged Teacher Kirisu on to give Hachiman a reward to motivate him to study well. Once Hachiman got first place in the grade in their subjects, they would wear maid outfits to guide him in housework skills.
If he got first in only one subject, only one person would wear a maid outfit. If he got first in two subjects, both would wear them together.
If this exam was too easy and everyone got full marks, would she not be done for?
Whether the always cold and meticulous Teacher Kirisu would really wear a maid outfit, she did not know.
But if Hachiman really got full marks like everyone else, she really did not know how to refuse.
After all, tied first was still first. She was a teacher. If she could not set an example and went back on a promise to a student...
With extremely complicated feelings, Mizuho Kagami slowly walked to the back row, went around behind Hachiman, lowered her head, and carefully examined the answers on his paper.
'Not full marks! Not full marks! Not full marks!'
"Teacher Nanami, are you worried that I will get first?"
Noticing a pair of full, firm, long beautiful legs wrapped in black over the knee stockings with lace stop straight beside him, Hachiman looked up at the youthful, cute face that did not match Mizuho Kagami's mature and tempting body, and smiled.
Mizuho Kagami was probably shocked by Nijika and the others' papers. After all, the temporary learning talent boosted by the teaching aura was indeed pretty powerful. It could even boost talent for learning magic, let alone just learning textbook knowledge.
Members who joined the Service Club and received his teaching would probably get full marks in all subjects in the future, once again raising Sobu High's average score.
"Call me Teacher Kagami."
Hearing how Hachiman addressed her, Mizuho Kagami was startled. She quickly looked around. Seeing that the surrounding students seemed not to have heard and were still bent over their papers, she let out a small sigh of relief, then quickly leaned down and whispered into Hachiman's ear.
"I am not worried about you getting first, Hachiman. I just came to take a look. I will definitely not go back on what I promised you. As long as you get first, I will absolutely wear a maid outfit and teach you housework skills..."
As she said this, Mizuho Kagami felt uncertain inside.
Even though she had not planned to break her promise, she really was worried about Hachiman actually getting first.
