Sakayanagi Arisu had a malicious personality and was very aggressive.
However,
Nagumo had to admit that this person had some tricks up her sleeve.
As a First Year, he seized the opportunity to use the least valuable routine written exam as a weapon, getting a stepping stone for the next Student Council President election.
He also secured 100 votes from the Third Year.
And now.
He also gained a dog from the Third Year.
The only reason the School Junior was so obedient was that this month's Third Year special exam had ended.
Sakayanagi, by assisting Third-year C Class and Third-year D Class, achieved excellent results in this exam.
And then someone became her dog.
However.
This was not good for Nagumo.
Sakayanagi was his competitor for the Student Council President election, and Sakayanagi already held 100 votes from the Third Year.
But the Third Year had more than just 100 votes, so she reached in, and even potentially got other votes herself.
For example, although she was currently assisting Third-year C Class and Third-year D Class, these two Classes already belonged to Sakayanagi's votes that Horikita Manabu helped collect within the 100 votes.
So was Sakayanagi working for free?
No.
Because this was also a display of strength to Third Year A Class or B Class.
And then to canvass for votes.
Like Third Year A Class, in the end, to maintain their position that they had held for three years, even though Horikita Manabu was leading, it was still very likely that they would make some compromises.
As for Third Year B Class, that Class was already rotten; whoever could make them strive upwards, they would listen to.
Therefore, Sakayanagi's move impacted Nagumo.
Seriously, it would have been much better if you had gone to the First Year special exam, instead of staying behind to cause him trouble.
This was what made Nagumo upset.
This month was the First Year's special exam of traveling to the Uninhabited Island by ship.
Sakayanagi Arisu, due to her physical condition, could not participate, so she could only stay at school.
She looked weak and helpless.
There was no one else around her.
Nagumo considered for a moment and prepared to approach her during this time.
After all.
If he could subdue Sakayanagi, wouldn't that mean he could also get the votes Sakayanagi got?
Then the Student Council election would be a sure thing.
So he planned to observe her for a few days before making contact.
But...
The result was that she participated in this Third Year special exam.
And she even gained something from it.
She couldn't participate in her own Grade's special exam, so she interfered with another Grade's?
"After all, I've been in this school for two years," Nagumo Senior said. "So I have a good grasp of some rules and limits."
"So Sakayanagi School Junior, I think it would be better if you also learned a bit about limits."
"..." Sakayanagi.
Sakayanagi School Junior's movements seemed to pause.
Had she finally realized how bad her actions were?
After all, the school adhered to Class competition, but it was basically within the same Grade, so it was very ridiculous for you to participate across Grades, okay?
So, did you finally realize that your actions crossed the line?
"So if you stop now..." Nagumo Senior continued.
However.
"I received a message from the Student Council President," Sakayanagi School Junior said, taking out her phone. "He wants me to go to the Student Council."
Is that so.
So, just now, she wasn't listening to him, but because she received a message from the Student Council President.
And only then did she react.
"It seems not only am I looking for you, but the Student Council President is looking for you to hold you accountable," Nagumo Senior said gloatingly. "Because you arbitrarily interfered with other Grades' special exams. You'll be punished, right?"
"Yes, it seems Nagumo Senior can't interfere with the Class competition between the upper Grades either, can he?" Sakayanagi School Junior said with a rather cute expression. "After all, Nagumo Senior did the same thing."
"And I will explain to the Student Council President that Nagumo Senior also did this," Sakayanagi School Junior showed a rather cute expression.
Damn it.
"..." Nagumo.
This made Nagumo instantly freeze.
He suddenly felt that Sakayanagi's interference in this Third Year special exam was so blatant that it was immediately discovered.
So, it was very likely that Sakayanagi intentionally exposed herself and reported it, which would mean he would also be reprimanded by Horikita Manabu or even made an example of.
And perhaps he would no longer be able to directly support Third Year B Class.
Yes.
Nagumo supported Third Year B Class, which was a hidden move.
As the Student Council Vice President, he had the authority to run for the next Student Council President.
However, there could also be some problems, for example, he clearly knew that President Horikita did not approve of his Claims, so Nagumo was also prepared for the possibility that President Horikita would become an obstacle on his path to election.
That's why he had to support Third Year B Class.
In Class competition, Third Year B Class could somehow affect Third Year A Class.
As long as they could affect Third Year A Class, it would be equivalent to having a hold on Student Council President Horikita, because they had worked so hard for so long and certainly didn't want to fail at the end.
So this was the arrangement Nagumo made.
As a result, this arrangement hadn't fully become useful, and he was probably going to be implicated and dealt with by Sakayanagi's side.
Instantly.
Nagumo felt like he had been tricked.
So the two went to the Student Council together.
...
Student Council.
Today was Saturday, but for a diligent Student Council President, today was also a day for overtime.
Horikita Manabu sat in his seat.
His gaze calmly fixed forward.
"Class competition is a mechanism adopted by the school to cultivate students, hoping they will grow through competition."
"And once participation exceeds battles not belonging to one's own Grade, it undoubtedly interferes with this."
"Then not only might the school take action, but I also cannot stand idly by."
"Because this is an act that destroys fairness and impartiality."
Horikita Manabu said, "I do not wish for such a thing to happen again."
"And Sakayanagi, you write a letter of commitment, hoping you do not make the same mistake again, and at the same time, once I discover others continuing to interfere, I will also severely punish them."
Sakayanagi and Nagumo went to the Student Council and were indeed reprimanded by Horikita Manabu.
Sakayanagi then wrote a letter of commitment, stating that she would no longer interfere with the Third Year's special exam.
She only wrote a letter of commitment, with no other punishment.
But Nagumo also knew that President Horikita was indeed using Sakayanagi's matter to warn him.
Because he also interfered with the Third Year's special exam.
And President Horikita's statement was that once others were found to continue interfering, they would be punished, which meant that past matters were over.
If he continued to support Third Year B Class, his situation would also become difficult.
...
"President, they have gone back," Akane Tachibana, as the secretary, reported immediately after confirming Sakayanagi and Nagumo had left.
Today's Student Council was working overtime, and this overtime was voluntary.
Although invited by Horikita Manabu to join the Student Council, other students were not as diligent as him.
Moreover.
The parts that needed to be completed were also things that other students couldn't do or were prone to problems, so Horikita Manabu personally handled them.
Akane Tachibana was Horikita Manabu's classmate and his right-hand woman.
At the same time, she also greatly admired Horikita Manabu, and then felt... somewhat guilty. Although she was also a student of Third Year A Class, during regular special exams, not only her, but the entire Class was actually holding Horikita Manabu back.
And Horikita Manabu not only had to worry about Class matters but also about Student Council matters, which was very hard.
So she also tried her best to help if she could.
No complaints.
At the same time, she was also Horikita Manabu's confidante.
"Mm," Horikita Manabu nodded.
"I hope this time they will no longer interfere with our Grade's special exam," Akane Tachibana said. "Sakayanagi School Junior did really well this time."
In fact, from the very beginning of this semester, the state of Third Year B Class was not right.
It was as if they had received support, cheating in exams.
This made people wonder.
One must know that they had been competing for over two years, so they clearly knew that Third Year B Class was not that excellent.
And Horikita Manabu's conclusion was that Third Year B Class was being supported by Nagumo with the resources of the entire Grade 2.
This was too much.
What were you Grade 2 doing interfering with the Third Year's special exam?
It was just that Nagumo did it more covertly, making it difficult to catch him, and Kiriyama, whom Horikita Manabu intentionally pulled into the Student Council, couldn't suppress Nagumo.
So there was nothing Horikita Manabu could do about Nagumo.
But this time, Nagumo could no longer support Third Year B Class.
The students of Third Year A Class breathed a sigh of relief.
"I hope so," Horikita Manabu said. "And it seems the two of them have also started to clash."
"But, problems have also arisen."
Horikita Manabu had a slight headache.
If he refused Nagumo because he didn't want to accept Nagumo's advocacy of strength-first after becoming Student Council President, then now that Sakayanagi had appeared, would it really be good for her to even become the next Student Council President?
Because.
Horikita Manabu specifically checked.
Indeed.
Sakayanagi's direct interference in this Third Year special exam this time was like leaving a weakness exposed.
Allowing him to use it as an excuse to suppress Nagumo.
It seemed Sakayanagi was cooperating with him.
However.
In reality, Horikita Manabu felt that Sakayanagi might not have been trying to suppress Nagumo.
Because this time, in exchange for assisting Third-year C Class and Third-year D Class, her demanded price was... half of the acquired Class evaluation point as compensation.
Until the Third Year graduated.
In other words.
This time, she just wanted to earn money, didn't she?
...
Although she stayed behind at the school, Sakayanagi's income increased.
Meanwhile, on the Uninhabited Island, in Class C of Grade 1.
It was also a great harvest.
More accurately, resources were abundant.
After thoroughly spending the initial 300 points, the students in the Class began to act.
Their goal was any stronghold that caught their eye.
Because according to Kouenji...
"I've occupied 20 strongholds, so you'll probably encounter strongholds that belong to Class C, so it doesn't matter which one you choose as your main stronghold."
The manual issued by the school for exchanging supplies also contained more detailed rules.
For example.
Find the Team Leader, then create a Team Leader card, and only use the Team Leader card to occupy a stronghold. Staying for a long time without reason or using an already occupied territory will result in point deductions. People other than the Team Leader using the Team Leader card will also be deducted points.
Furthermore, actions such as feeling unwell or being severely injured, obviously polluting the environment, being absent from morning or evening roll calls, violence against other Classes, or damaging public property will all result in point deductions.
Every day at 8 AM and 8 PM, return to the island's gathering point for roll call. 3 points will be deducted for each person absent.
If the Team Leader is correctly guessed on the morning of the seventh day, then the stronghold points obtained by occupying strongholds with the Team Leader card will be reset to zero.
The Team Leader cannot be changed at will without a valid reason.
Before that, the main base must be determined before sunset, and the main base cannot be changed at will.
Since their Class had such a great advantage, they naturally had to follow the rules and secure the points.
Unlike other Classes that walked for most of the day without encountering an occupiable stronghold, Class C now had too many strongholds.
And now they were heading to a cave.
The cave had already been swiped by Kouenji.
But for the students...
"That's amazing, to be able to find a place like this."
"It's practically a natural base!"
"A cave, I've never lived in a cave before!"
The students of Class C were quite lively. Because the environment of this cave was simply perfect.
Not only was it suitable for living, but there were also fruit orchards and cornfields directly around the cave.
Further back was a stronghold with a stream, and these all belonged to their Class, so they had water and resources, making it very comfortable.
Hachiman and Horikita also arrived at this cave together.
"Everyone, quiet down." Hirata then asked the students to put down the exchanged supplies and immediately spoke, "Kouenji just occupied 20 strongholds on the island! And according to his estimate, there won't be more than 30 strongholds on the island, with a total of around 25-26."
"That means, in this exam, our Class can not only get 300 stronghold points, but also leave other Classes far behind."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Class's somewhat noisy atmosphere instantly quieted down.
But only for a moment.
"Wow! Isn't that great?"
"We occupied 20 out of a maximum of 20 strongholds, this time we're definitely going to win!"
"Kouenji is amazing, I never noticed before."
Excited expressions spread across everyone's faces; excitement, joy, surprise, and indescribable emotions were written on each person's face.
Many of them looked at the blond young man leaning against the cave wall with a calm expression, unable to hide the shock in their eyes.
They had never imagined that Kouenji, whom they had always considered unsociable, would be so strong.
One must know that there were four entire Classes on this island.
If there were truly more than 20 strongholds, on average, each Class should have five or six strongholds.
In reality, occupying more than ten practically guaranteed a win.
But Kouenji occupied 20.
It was practically not giving other Classes a chance to live!
Rather, one person rushing ahead of other Classes to swipe so many strongholds was quite impressive.
And.
Some students who were good at math had already begun to calculate.
20 strongholds, one point per swipe, three swipes a day would be 60 points.
Seven days would be 420 points!
Of course, on the first day, they could only swipe 2 times, and on the last day, only 1 time, but the total would still be 360 points!
Everyone calculated based on Kouenji getting 300 stronghold points and taking 100, meaning everyone would get 200 points, adding 20,000 to their monthly living expenses. And now, there were an additional 60 points, so everyone's living expenses would increase by 6,000 points each month!
Then, after a week here, they exchanged for a large amount of supplies, so they could treat the exam as a fun outing.
Effortlessly.
This kind of treatment was simply amazing.
Therefore, the students in the Class all looked at the person who brought them so many benefits.
Kouenji noticed the gazes of the surrounding students, and even understood that Hirata was intentionally praising him.
However, flattering him was useless.
Because Kouenji knew he was just that excellent.
He wouldn't be swayed by the gazes of his classmates to take action next time or the time after that.
This time, he had already acted for his own sake.
Based on the income of 100 Class evaluation points he could obtain, his plan to advance to Class A upon graduation was already largely successful.
So he could stop trying now.
Therefore.
He would only make one move.
Hikigaya, you won't be able to motivate him next time.
However, as Kouenji thought this, Hikigaya seemed to be deep in thought.
What was he thinking now?
"What are you thinking?"
And someone asked Hikigaya what was on his mind.
...
PS: I relapsed, had a headache for two days, and it was hard to look at my phone. It's eased up a bit tonight, so I immediately rushed over to type.
PY below
Transmigrated, with an appearance comparable to an idol, a golden finger, a profession as an anime director, and this world lacking the famous works of his previous life, Mikoshiba seems to be on the path to becoming a renowned director.
...
"Mikoshiba, is it true that you were simultaneously dating five female voice actors in the past?"
"Mikoshiba, what do you think about 'Director A-ko, who dated him for over a decade, but then found out he was married'?"
"Mikoshiba, is the news that XX idol stayed overnight at your apartment yesterday true?"
"Mikoshiba, I heard you often hang out with female high school students?
"Mikoshiba, excuse me, was that well-known guitarist Lonely Hero who just left your side?"
"Mikoshiba, this woman in this photo..."
