Chapter 239 - Chapter 247 + 248

"Class A! We are Class A!"

"We are Class A now!"

Sudo suddenly stood up, with a fanatical expression on his face, and shouted excitedly.

"Hey, what's wrong with you guys?!"

After shouting for a while, Sudo suddenly realized that atmosphere was a little strange.

He touched his head and said, "Or am I actually in a dream? In that case, you should just pretend you didn't hear it..."

Before he finished speaking, Class B suddenly erupted in earth-shaking cheers.

"We are--"

"Class A!"

The scores changed, and the class rankings also moved.

Class A (Horikita)

Class B (Ichinose)

Class C (Sakayanagi)

Class D 0 (Ryuen) "Owaah!!!"

Rushed forward and became the real Class A.

Even though definitely not be able to keep ranking.

But there is no doubt they have successfully advanced to Class A!

Even if this only lasts for 1 month.

"..." Chabashira Sae had also evacuated from the audience seats.

She returned to the student camp and looked at the cheering students with a calm expression.

But her body was trembling slightly, and palms on her waist were clenched slightly.

"I did it. I r-really did it...." Chabashira Sae's heart was trembling, as if she had obtained the treasure she had always dreamed of.

"Class A!"

It only took one semester, less than half a year.

Just bring Class D to A step by step!

After being taught a lesson by Hikigaya-kun, Chabashira didn't expect them to keep their place in Class A because the school wouldn't allow it.

Because these people in Class D are simply unreliable.

From beginning to the end, there was only one person who pushed Class D to the altar step by step.

But, that's enough.

She used her 10 years of youth to prove to everyone that Class D could also be promoted to A!

Maybe it is just a flash in pan, maybe it will wither in next second.

However, this has proved her dream was not just empty talk.

Her long-cherished wish was fulfilled.

"Ding--!"

"Excuse me!"

At this moment, there was a sudden noise coming from radio on playground, and then voice of Student Council President Horikita Manabu was heard.

"Please ask Hikigaya Hachiman from Class 1-A to visit the Student Council now."

"I repeat, Hikigaya Hachiman from Class 1-A head to the Student Council now!"

But students below were not even a little concerned about such Hikigaya.

"Did you hear that?!"

"First-year Class A!"

"The student council president is calling us Class A!"

"It's actually Class A!"

Random guys with no faces almost jumped up with excitement, which meant that everything had just happened was not their imagination.

But it's true!

The school has acknowledged their Class B has been successfully promoted to Class A!

"Sensei-----"

Hachiman glanced at Chabashira who was standing to the side and stood up.

"Go ahead..." She nodded at him.

This boy had done everything he promised.

And she has already fulfilled her dream, so no longer needs to worry about anything else.

As the saying goes-

.....After I die, I won't care about the flood, and people who get drowned and become Jason.

In a sense, she is just as selfish.

As long as she has become Class A, will have no regrets.

As for the former Class A, because they are now C.

Children never thought would fall, and even if did, never imagined performance would become C class.

"Hikigaya Hachiman." Sakayanagi returned to her class's base camp and bit her upper lip, feeling a bit complicated.

Her classmates also had dark expression.

"Sakayanagi" Katsuragi came in front of her as if he had accepted his fate, "These were my mistakes. The class has fallen behind, and I no longer have the dignity to continue to maintain my status as a representative."

Katsuragi said in a convinced but heavy tone, "....From now on, I'll accept you to lead this class."

Faced with this authority that was offered to her voluntarily, Arisu Sakayanagi didn't care much about it.

This made Katsuragi feel a little regretful.

This shows that Sakayanagi had actually anticipated this situation a long time ago.

It should be said that she did not think highly of him from beginning.

And the result is same.

He was unable to lead class to maintain its position as A.

"Anyway, now our leader is Sakayanagi!"

"As long as we graduate in Class A, that's fine!"

Sakayanagi may not have much reaction, but her supporters are different.

Her faction had many members from the beginning.

So, bots have been looking forward to the day when Sakayanagi can truly take power.

And now, time has come.

They still have confidence left in her.

Therefore, emotions of Sakayanagi faction members were aroused all of a sudden.

Even if the class falls behind, morale is still quite high.

"I don't think Sakayanagi-san is in good mood right now...."

But some people think her current attitude is wrong.

But she didn't say it out loud.

At the same time, also discovered that ....Arisu had stood up.

She wore a black beret on her silver hair, and her fair little hands were holding a cane on the ground to prevent herself from falling.

And Sakayanagi's mood right now is definitely not in the class.

If she really wanted it, she could have taken away Katsuragi's authority from the beginning instead of letting him take control.

So this incident could not shake her.

'......I am very upset because I was rejected after finally deciding to invite Hikigaya-kun....'

Meanwhile, Hachiman is going to the council.

Most of the students were just playing and resting after.

However, the busy President went straight back to his office.

And Hachiman also understood a little bit why Horikita Manabu went to look for him.

Before the sports festival started.

3rd grade class evaluation scores are a little problematic.

Grade 3

Class A 2154 points

Class B 1530 points

Class C, 310 points

Class D, 255 points

After Sports Festival.

The scores of the 1st graders are shocking, but 3rd are not light either.

The white team won the red-white confrontation.

In the total score of third grade, Class A won 1st place, Class B 2nd,

Class C 3rd

Class C 4th

There is no problem with ranking of the total class scores among grades.

However, win or loss of the red and white team really affected him.

Because now, 3rd grade class evaluation scores have become like this.

Grade 3

Class A 2154 points

Class B 1730 points

Class C, 410 points

Class D: 0 points

This is not a good sign for Class 3-A.

Hachiman has finally arrived at the Student Council office.

"Dongdong--"

He knocked on the door politely.

"Come in."

Manabu was still very polite.

Even though he had just participated in the 1200-meter relay race, and even overtook Chiaki Matsushita and recovered 25 meters to win first place, President Horikita was not at all blushing or out of breath at this moment.

"First of all, congratulations. It's not easy to climb up from the first-year D class. It's like a miracle."

Manabu seems quite official.

"If you just called me here for this level of praise, then I'll go back. My class is going to have a celebration party, and if I'm late, I'll still pay the same amount."

"-ough...ough" Manabu almost choked on the slight amount of oxygen he was about to inhale, "Give me a second...."

"I spoke too early for him being out of breath...." Hachiman lowly muttered under his nose, trying best for not letting President hear.

"....In the entry form submitted by your class for the 1200-meter relay, she was the last runner. But in the end it was another student who came on.....?"

"Do you want to know about your sister's poor health?"

"....Your answer?"

'Oho? Isn't Horikita-nii's attention to detail quite detailed? He is really a sister-con!' Hachiman thought he could stay for a while.

Knowing that Manabu is a person who cares for his younger sister, Hachiman finds him much more pleasing to the eye.

So, he told the other party why Suzune was injured.

A self-torture tactic.

Voluntary injury.

"It seems that Suzune has also grown up...." Manabu was originally sitting on the student council president's desk, writing something with a pen in his right hand, but he put down when he heard this.

"Then I should go meet her..... The fact that Class D can climb up step by step and even set a school record is inseparable from you. But now it looks that even Suzune also plays a role in it...."

Hachiman agrees with this.

In this sports meet, Suzune concentrated part of the firepower of Ryuen's plan and then turned the tables on him.

In fact, the reason why Ryuen was willing to use the agreement with Class A to trade with him was mainly because he/she recorded the data that Ryuen was the mastermind.

.....Ryuen was guilty of more than one offense.

And Hachiman even went out of his way to report Ryuen during a horse-riding battle.

Therefore, if these two things are reported, Ryuen will be deemed to be stubborn and may be directly expelled from school.

He was sure Ryuen also understands this, that's why had to admit defeat.

"President Horikita, you didn't ask me to come here alone for this reason, did you?"

"...." Manabu, "Fine, take a look at this number."

When Hachiman came in, Manabu was busy writing something with a pen on the notebook on other side of his table.

When the other person picked up the notebook, Hachiman saw the scores of 4 Third-grade classes after the sports festival.

Class A 2154 points

Class B 1730 points

Doesn't matter.

"In Red-white confrontation, the white team was able to directly counterattack and defeat others. This is not a fair and just result. There's a problem with second-year students.....It was Nagumo who took action. Nagumo and I have different philosophies. I do not approve of him being the Student council president, ideology of this school is that strength is supreme, so if the other party really wants to grab the position, and has the ability to do so....."

"I won't say no..."

But, Nagumo is indeed snatching it.

Directly manipulated the entire grade and reversed the game of Red and white groups.

What is the goal of reversing the performance of red and white groups?

Only 1.

Nagumo is also present in the Red Group, so there is no point in messing with himself.

His goal was to prevent Class 3-A from getting the +200-point bonus for winning the Red-White Contest, and instead to have them lose points, and then have Class 3-B gain more.

Supporting Grade 3 Class B.

Let the third-year class B threaten the Class A, and then Nagumo can use bargaining chip to threaten Horikita Manabu.

Get the other party's vote.

"And Hikigaya, I hope this day will never come....If the situation really gets terrible, Hikigaya, then you can help me once...."

"I prohibited Nagumo from directly influencing the 3rd-grade exams. At that time, as long as it was a major exam for the entire grade, he could still manipulate the actions of 2nd grade...."

'And if it is a joint exam for the entire grade, then Hikigaya's first-year students will also be there...So if Nagumo wants to cause trouble, Hikigaya can also provide some assistance....'

Horikita Manabu asking for help?

Forehead.

Chapter 248

"If the situation really gets terrible, Hikigaya, then you can help me once...."

Horikita Manabu asking for help?

'That's why I specifically asked Hikigaya to come here because I felt that 3rd-year students were about to graduate, and they had worked very hard along the way, but they were a little timid and ended up failing in the gutter.....'

The school this class competes with starts out as Class A, and all students who graduate are A.

They have to go through dozens of special exams and fight to avoid being defeated.

It's a matter of trepidation and difficulty.

Hachiman also watched the performance of Class 3-A from audience.

The quality of 3rd grade students may not be as good as that of level, and most are like the quality of Class B.

Horikita Manabu has been stable with 39 chicken until now.

At the same time, Hachiman has analyzed before and felt that Manabu is an enhanced version of Ichinose.

Because guy is already in the third grade, and the other party's class still has 40 students, which means they will never give up on any student.

.....Hachiman luckily happened to see the students in Class A of Grade 3, and found that food expenses of these seniors were relatively average, and even quite frugal.

In other words, in order to keep up with the others and prevent their classmates from dropping out, they actually had to pave the way with money during these 3 years.

It is indeed a difficult class.

"Since President Horikita has asked me to do so. Then can you agree to my one condition?"

"What do you want?"

"I want a spot as Student council president candidate!"

"Y-you guy?! You want to run for the Student council president?!" Manabu almost kicked his desk over towards his guest in pretty shock.

"...." Hachiman, "It doesn't have to be me. But by then, it will definitely be Sakayanagi and Nagumo fighting. If anyone has the money and confidence, I can sell this spot to the other party at a high price...."

"β€’ β€’" Manabu, 'So you just want to do business...'

However, now is the time when the class needs to be stabilized the most, and Manabu does not have any extra points to bribe Hachiman.

A candidate's place is fine if it is valuable.

So two of them hit it off immediately.

"President Horikita, what are your future plans after graduation?" Hachiman suddenly turned back when he was about to leave the council.

"I will probably continue my studies," Manabu wasn't shy about revealing his plans either, he made a good deal today, "I want to become a lawyer or go into politics in the future."

'So, doesn't that mean your store still belongs to Horikita?' Hachiman immediately said goodbye and left.

Sports Festival is over.

Hachiman left the office, but did not return to the dormitory immediately because students planned to hold a celebration party for their promotion to a higher class in shopping district.

It has probably already begun.

Climbing from Class D to A is indeed outrageous.

It should indeed be celebrated.

As for the move that every student had to share cost, although Hachiman was not unwilling, he couldn't go too late, otherwise all the delicious food would have been eaten by others.

When Hachiman arrived, students had indeed become lively.

Hirata booked a buffet restaurant.

After searching for a while, he quickly found Suzune.....Oh no, she was the 1st person to approach Hachiman after he entered the store.

"You went to the Student Council...."

Um....Actually, she was asking about her brother.

"???" Hachiman...."Your brother saw our class's entry form. So, he was a little suspicious about you not participating despite having signed up....."

"I see...." Suzune nodded like a noodle she had become.

Hachiman felt like this kind of response was too lacking in flavour.

"Then, he also congratulated our class on being promoted to A. You have already gained his recognition. He even took back the words he used to call you a waste."

"Hmm....."

These words reminded Suzune of the time when she was still a weak little chick and was asked to drop out of school and called a waste by her brother.

It's only been 3 months, but it feels like a long time has passed. She herself feels that it is very different from before.

"Right..." Now all of the moment, Suzune weirdly seemed a little embarrassed. "Hachiman, as a thank you, would you like to come to my room for dinner?"

'Does this mean you're giving me a special treatment?'

Although there are many dishes in the buffet restaurant, Hachiman thinks there is nothing wrong with accepting Suzune's invitation to eat in her room.

'Eat all the free meals you can', Hachiman agreed instantly.

"Like you said, you will leave the class one day, and now it has been brought to A, so when do you decide..." Suzune is feeling a little hesitant, but still wanted to know more.

Hachiman has proven his ability.

There also points to go to other classes.

Although the current one can climb to Class A, Suzune does not think it can be maintained for long and is afraid that it will fall soon.

Furthermore, Hachiman will no longer take the initiative to take on the responsibility of every special exam.

So now that goal has been achieved, the other party may start to slack off.

Then it is also possible to go to another class.

"Well...." Hachiman pursed his lips in a mild thought, and decided to say what he really....."I really don't know."

"Have no idea?"

"Yeah....The hardware of our class, although there are many problem children, some of them are totally nuts, monsters are hiding, and some are prone to explosion, so it is not a very good house....Going to any other class wouldn't be as problematic. But leaving or something, it's not my decision....."

"Huh? What's that supposed to mean...."

"It's going to be decided by other classes...."

"Explain a bit more?" Suzune only had vague ideas but was not completely sure.

"My points are meant to be exchanged for cash, or to buy a place in the 20 million A-class graduation. I might give this place to someone else who is willing to support me and let herself go to work....I don't want to spend money to skip classes...."

"..." Suzune.

"Other girls have to pay for me! Since I can bring Class D to A, isn't it possible to jump others up there as well? So I'm waiting for a benefactor. Other party/girl willing to spend money to buy me!"

"You never change...." Suzune finally understood with her big eyes.

'Hachiman is still the same. He eats lunch boxes with me to save points, and would rather accept the support of A-class student Arisu Sakayanagi to save money. So if he were asked to spend 20 million to skip classes, he would definitely not be willing to do so. Even if you are willing to spend 20 million to let someone skip a class, you still have to be responsible for supporting him....'

He doesn't do business at a loss.

"So which class do you think is most likely to buy you?" Suzune was a little curious.

"Sakayanagi has already proposed...."

"Really?" Horikita nodded with a blank face, 'I instantly felt that Sakayanagi Arisu had good vision, and her actions were quite decisive.'

While Suzune was busy inside her thoughts, her partner had already started to open his vision once more.

"But I always feel that she is weird. I can't easily accept such a large amount of points from her....So, the targets I can decide are either Ichinose or Ryuen's class! If atmosphere is the best, I would definitely go to Ichinose's. Because, you will definitely not be excluded. Even if you drop out of the class, you will not be randomly expelled. She is going to protect her friends!"

It is obvious to all that Ichinose's class is full of little angels.

Take this sports meet for example, Ichinose assisted their class.

In order to prevent some students from being deducted for being ranked in the bottom ten, Ichinose class made sacrifices and arranged some abandoned students to help some of the poor athletes and students in Hachiman's class, allowing them to score points.

Result was that, during game, it was indeed affected.

If Shibata had not won fourth place and earned points in the 1200-meter relay race, Ichinose's class would have been last.

"If I work hard with Ichinose's class, we might be able to graduate in Class A....but my favorite is actually Ryu---"

"What?!"

Because of the score.

Grade 1, Class D, 0 points.

From the time entered school until now, D class's score have not been high, and now they just returned to 0 again.

Suzune was afraid that even eating will become a problem from now on.

"Because the random guys who always disturb us in Ryuen's class are very self-aware. Although there are still traitors and the like. But Ryuen should be good enough to weed them out..And most attractive thing is that vast majority of students in Ryuen's class will accept some of his exploitation and the like..."

"You mean..." Suzune just now had a very bad premonition about the future.

"That's what I mean. Since the students in Ryuen's class have been trained, and they are obedient and follow instructions to complete tasks, and they also accept being exploited, then if I create profits in that class, wouldn't I be able to get a lot? For example, if class evaluation score is 4,000 points, then I can even give only 500 points to the students, and take away 3,500 in profits. I don't think they will even say anything!"

"..." Horikita Suzune.

She suddenly felt that her brother might be overthinking.

Hachiman was heading in a direction that she couldn't catch up with, and was heading towards money.

'It's just that Hachiman's life goal is to be a househusband, which means he doesn't want to work.....So the more money he collects, the more at ease he will feel.' Suzune completely understood boy's perverted goals in this school.

"Ding ding!"
