Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e

Dumping volume 4 chapter 3 part 3. I suppose this is where the plot of volume 4 really kicks off.

Unless one is an esper capable of reading minds, finding the "target" won't be an easy task. People are all born liars and are mostly used to lying. If a person that has never lied even once in their lives exists, that existence itself would be a lie. For humans, lies are an inseparable part of ourselves. At the very least, among the people gathered in this room, one of them is the "target". There is still time until the discussion proper starts, however, the reason I came early like last time was to observe the behaviour of everyone in the group. And the first ones who arrived for the night's discussion were the girls of Class C. They came in while gleefully chatting away with each other. Upon seeing me, they instantly lowered their voices in a disgusted manner and quickly distanced themselves from me.

Next was Yukimura, who entered the room with a sharp-looking face. Casually greeting me with a glance, he soon sat down near me. He didn't seem to be any different from usual. Then next came the Class A group. Machida and Takemoto. And then Morishige. As usual, since they have decided to keep their silence, they decided to sit at the far end of the room. Close to where the Class C girls were sitting. "Hey Machida-kun, today after this is over, do you want to come play with us? The three of us girls are planning on having fun after this, but haven't found someone yet". "Let's see..." Machida replied to them.

(Continued)

Machida usually does not participate in the discussion, but his 'presence' is still strong. Leaving aside Ichinose and Ibuki, it seems all the other girls in the group are interested in him. It's not like I'm jealous of him or anything...but I may be slightly jealous of him. Either Class C had half given up on finding the "targets" or perhaps this is still a part of their plan, but with those words they had invited Machida out to play with them. Is this how men and women deepen their relationships? It seems Machida is also satisfied with that as he looked happy while considering their invitation. Then Sotomura and Karuizawa entered the room. But rather than together, it seemed like they just happened to arrive in the room at the same time, as Karuizawa had a displeased look on her face. As soon as they entered the room, she quickly put some distance between them and moved towards the back of the room.

"Hey. That's my seat". Despite having arrived later, Karuizawa tells that to the Class C girls while glaring at them even though they arrived earlier. After seeing the other girls flirting openly with Machida, it seems Karuizawa became even more angry at them. "Don't know what you're on about, but what's your seat? Just find somewhere else to sit" Manabe told Karuizawa. "I said that's my seat. Move" she replied. "Huh? Can't you see I'm talking to Machida-kun right now? We're going to be playing tonight" Manabe tells Karuizawa. "Machida-kun, please tell her yourself. That you want me sitting next to you" Karuizawa asks Machida. Looking slightly embarrassed, Machida seemed to be torn on who to choose. But Karuizawa soon understood the situation, and quickly got in between Manabe and Machida, and held Machida's hand.

(Continued)

"This time, let's play together. Just the two of us. Or have you chosen that girl? I hate womanizers, so if you're going to play with that girl I won't go out with you" Karuizawa tells Machida. I was honestly surprised she would say something like that so boldly while going out with Hirata. In fact, Machida seemed to be attracted to the words "just the two of us" and had already decided which girl to choose. "Could you please move? That's where Karuizawa sits. Even this afternoon too" Machida tells Manabe. "Huh? What's that supposed to mean? Annoying...". Saying those words with face that said likewise, the Class C girls moved away from Machida. And so Karuizawa quickly moved into that empty space and sat down. In fact, she sat down so close it was almost as if she were glued to Machida. Honestly, their bodies were already connected at this point.

Perhaps the only reason people did not think those actions were frivolous was because people already knew what Karuizawa was like. Perhaps he doesn't know she is going out with Hirata, or perhaps he does, but it seems Machida has begun to open up his heart to Karuizawa, or has already fallen in love with her. If we're only talking about appearances, Karuizawa is indeed cute, and if you look at her from the perspective of liking her, it is also possible that protective feelings would be born inside of you. The interesting thing is, the group that was just formed yesterday, had already begun to develop its own hierarchy of power and ecosystem just today. A loner is a loner while a popular person will remain popular even so.

(Continued)

The partitioning of the students into hierarchies is already complete. But this partitioning is not done the usual way. For instance, if two people happen to share the same status in the group, inevitably one would rise and the other would fall in status. It could even be described as a 'survival of the fittest' environment. And the one that loses in said competition would be demoted to a lower rank amongst their peers. Perhaps even to the bottom of the ladder. To the point where their existence would not matter one point even if they weren't there. For example, someone like me in this case. The interesting thing about this exam is that it forces people who had competed against each other earlier to join hands. Even Ichinose, who is extremely popular amongst her class, has trouble influencing her enemies in this class. If it were Hirata, perhaps he might have been able to organize this into a more proper group?

"Let's get along today too!" Ichinose herself arrived and brought life back into the dispirited room. I also immediately realized the atmosphere in the room is especially thick today and chose to not speak carelessly. But even so, Karuizawa's actions seemed too forceful and incomprehensible to me. If she wanted to get closer to Machida, she did not need to antagonize the Class C girls to do so. I just felt---that this event and the exam itself had no direct connection. As someone who had been watching Karuizawa since the start of the first semester, I can tell after observing her personality and her actions. That Karuizawa wants to stand at the top. Of course, she's not such a talented person that she can rise to the top of the girls group like that. She lacks the talent of Ichinose and something like that would normally be impossible for her.

(Continued)

But there is such a thing as 'human relationships' that come into play here. It is a fact that Karuizawa with a strong personality became the leader of Class D's girls. Furthermore, she became the girlfriend of Hirata, the guiding force of the class and gained influence with the boys as well. If one applies Karuizawa's behaviour then to this instance, the truth becomes clearer. She attaches herself to the strongest man she can find such as Machida and gains influence in the group that way. It works, in fact, the Class C girls who were unable to overpower Machida's influence were already reluctantly going back to their own seats. Karuizawa accepts the risk of being hated in exchange for absolute domination.

For a sense of superiority?
For self-satisfaction?
Or just craving the spotlight?

I still cannot see the root cause of this behaviour, but evidently something along those lines was responsible for her actions. "This isn't good". "Yeah, if we continue like this, we'll be allowing the "target" to get away". The one who answered my murmur was Yukimura, who happened to be sitting next to me. It would be awkward for me to correct him on the subject so I went along with the flow.

(Continued)

"Let's see, let's see. Class A isn't going to join in the discussions as usual. Right?". "Of course. Please feel free to continue the discussion without us. Our stance has not changed". The student sitting next to Machida who made that statement that had been concealing his emotions the entire time was Morishige. I've seen him before this exam. According to what I have heard, Class A currently is divided up between two factions. The Katsuragi Faction and the Sakayanagi Faction. Morishige was one of those who betrayed Katsuragi during the island test. While he would not normally listen to Katsuragi's orders obediently like this, Sakayanagi is absent from this cruise due to ill health and without someone to give him orders directly, he had no choice but to follow Katsuragi's orders it seems.

I expected Katsuragi to instantly lose influence in the class after his failure during the island test but it seems he won't go down that easily. Since he too had been keeping his silence for two days now, it seems even Morishige believes he has no choice but to endure Katsuragi's orders. "Since it'll be a waste to spend an hour like this, shall we play cards again?" Ichinose says as though she had grown used to this as she proposed a game of cards after the initial confirmation. In this exam, there are different approaches that can be taken, but Ichinose seems to want to find the "target" through dialogue while Katsuragi took the opposite approach by preventing all dialogue.

Thanks for the translations TL user-san

>If we're only talking about appearances, Karuizawa is indeed cute, and if you look at her from the perspective of liking her, it is also possible that protective feelings would be born inside of you.
Wise words

On the other hand, Ryuuen's strategy is turn everyone into an enemy while taking absolute control of his own class. But I can't be sure those are their individual strategies until the curtain falls. After all, it would be impossible to talk about that while playing cards for one whole hour. Yukimura seemed to be desperately scanning the surroundings but he doesn't seem to have a grasp on who the "target" could be. I'm sure it's the same for the other students as well and that is surely the conclusion they have all reached. Even if dialogue were to be successful, it is unlikely the "target" would name themselves. Once the hour had passed, I observe the order in which the students leave the room.

The students of Class C who were always one of the first out the door do not seem to be leaving yet while Class A, always the first to leave, did so as usual. However, it seems Machida and Karuizawa are busy exchanging their contact numbers with each other and making arrangements to contact each other. Then Yukimura and Sotomura got up to leave. "Let's go back, Ayanokouji you're leaving too right?". "Yeah". And at the same time, Karuizawa also stands to leave while talking to someone on the phone, seemingly chatting about something interesting. And as she leaves, the three girls from Class C also pass through us to follow her.

(Continued)

"Those three girls. Don't they seem a bit strange to you?". Yukimura seemed to have noticed somethign unusual about them and looked at me with a worried face. "Do you believe so? I have not noticed anything" Sotomura replies to him in a crazy tone of voice. Leaving aside Sotomura's opinion, Yukimura's intuition is correct. It seems the Class C girls are storing up quite a bit of anger in them as well. Yukimura and I slightly peak out of the room into the corridor outside. And we saw the three girls chasing Karuizawa swiftly in the corridor. I would rather not follow them alone. And Ibuki, who also seem to be disinterested in Karuizawa, is not there. "Might be a personal quarrel between them?" Yukimura looked at me as if to ask what to do.

"Let's follow them. It might not end up in violence but it might cause a bit of uproar". "Damn that Karuizawa, always doing things that makes people hate her...even though I wanted to find the "target" myself". While Sotomura left to return to his room, Yukimura and I quickly followed the four girls quietly.

(Continued)

> it seems all the other girls in the group are interested in him. It's not like I'm jealous of him or anything...but I may be slightly jealous of him.
Slightly............

As I reached a corner, I heard the sound of a door slamming shut and saw the entrance to the emergency stairs closing. But there was no reason to use the emergency stairs unless the elevators were broken, which meant something else is happening here. "Hey, what're you doing bringing me to a place like this?". I quietly opened the door to the emergency staircase and heard a voice from inside. "Don't play dumb with us, you pushed Rika right? Start talking". "...w-w-why. Why are you accusing me? I told you you've got the wrong person didn't I?". The three girls then closed in on Karuizawa and drove her back to the wall as if to prevent her from escaping. But even in a situation like that, Karuizawa continued to deny the accusations without apologizing. Is it really not her then?. "I have something to do now, would you mind moving aside?".

"Then let me confirm it now. I'm going to call Rika now. If it's really not you, then I'll forgive you". "I don't know what you're talking about, I'll call the teachers". "What are you going to tell the teachers? It's not like we're using violence on you right now. If you tell them, we could also tell them you pushed Rika and make it a problem for you too". It seems like they have no intention of backing down as they grabbed Karuizawa's arms as she tried to escape and pushed her back towards the wall.

(Continued)

>It seems like they have no intention of backing down as they grabbed Karuizawa's arms as she tried to escape and pushed her back towards the wall.
It began

One of the girls then began using her phone to contact the girl named Rika. "W-wait a minute". Once she realized the situation was that serious, Karuizawa tried to stop them from making the call. "Why are you in such a hurry?". "...I just remembered. I accidentally bumped into that girl" Karuizawa quickly tells them. "You filthy liar, you remembered her from the start didn't you? I don't care either way, but you're going to apologize to Rika?". "No. She's the one in the wrong. She's an airheaded girl". I thought Karuizawa would accept responsibility for it, but it seems she's as headstrong as ever. Despite knowing she would rile the Class C girls up even more she still said those words.

"She's really pissing me off. I was even thinking about forgiving her for her actions earlier if she apologized to Rika. Never mind, I'm not forgiving her now". And with that, she pushed Karuizawa's shoulder with the palm of her hand. "You weren't going to forgive her anyway from the start...right?". It was a girl named Yamashita who had always followed behind Manabe until now, that said that. "Shiho-chan, I can't hold back anymore. I really won't forgive Karuizawa". "I know right? I'm sure Rika shares the same feelings as you. Let's seriously bully her".

(Continued)

This time, with more force, she hit Karuizawa's shoulder with her palm again. Yukimura tried to open the door quickly, but I grabbed his arm and stopped him. Even if we stopped this now, Karuizawa will inevitably be assaulted again in the future. But allowing them to use violence to their heart's content right now will serve as a deterrent for them in the future. And depending on the degree of violence, it might even be possible to threaten them with contacting the school. And most importantly, right now Karuizawa Kei's existence is about to change.

"Ha...haaa". Karuizawa seemed to be having trouble breathing. Or perhaps she seems to be in pain. But she grabbed her head with both hands. But the sight of her suffering, instead of evoking empathy, brought forth more anger from Manabe and the other girls. "Even if you act all feminine like that I won't forgive you anymore". She then grabbed Karuizawa's hair and forcefully raised her head. "I always hated Karuizawa's face, don't you think she's really ugly?". "I know right? Do you want to cut up that face of hers?" one of the girls asked.

(Continued)

>Let's seriously bully her
TL user ,how far is the real deal of this volume?

This part is the pic related scene.

I need to read this vol yet, but Karuizawa really did something bad to Rika? Why she is so reluctant on saying the truth?

She bumped into Rika and the latter fell onto the ground.

"S-s-stop". "S-stop, she's saying. What happened to that determination you had a while ago?". It would seem the more you hate your enemy, the more you seek to attack their advantages. If we're only talking about beauty, there's no doubt that Karuizawa is the better one. But it seems Manabe, Yamashita and Yabu won't be satisfied until they deny Karuizawa's appearance like that. After shaking silently, Karuizawa became unable to move. There was no longer any trace of the usual her to be seen right now. The true nature of a person always comes out in a dilemma like this. A little more of this and soon I'll be able to see and know more of Karuizawa Kei.

But it seems Yukimura's sense of justice had kicked in, as he seems to be unable to hold it anymore. He then quickly opened the door with force and surprised the three girls inside. On the other hand, as though she had been saved, Karuizawa looked at Yukimura with a face of relief. "What are you doing?". "W-w-w-w-what? I was just talking with Karuizawa-san, right?". Manabe looked at Karuizawa with a threatening expression as if daring her to say a word, but Karuizawa isn't the sort of person to be intimidated by just that.

(Continued)

the hell, then it was an accident. Manabe is full of shit.

Indeed. A push that escalated due to Manabe and her shitty nature.

"Hey Yukimura-kun, do something. They abducted me violently out of the blue and started pushing me around. They're the worst right? They were annoying so I told them to leave me alone but". Normally Karuizawa would never care about Yukimura, but she's probably grateful to him now that he's appeared here to save her. Her face seemed to convey her relief. But Class C seemed to be hatefully glaring at Yukimura. Almost like saying this has nothing to do with Yukimura. "I'm just helping Rika with her Karuizawa problem. Since you came here you must have also heard the story right". "...I think you should let it go. If they just accidentally bumped into each other, it's not like Karuizawa's at fault you know". Yukimura had no choice but to answer like that.

"You shut up. This has nothing to do with you". ".....". Since he got told to shut up by the Class C girls, this time Yukimura had no choice but to obediently shut up. Karuizawa then started to look at Yukimura as if looking at a pathetic man while I slowly took out my phone quietly.

(Continued)

Nah we haven't reached that part just yet.

No. It is that part. There are two different instances of bullying here. This one ends now and the other (with Rika involved) comes later. That's when pic related happens. This one already happened here.

Nope what you're thinking is the next pic.

"Just leave me alone already. Otherwise I'll call for someone" Karuizawa tells them. "Call? Call who? Hirata-kun? Machida-kun? Or perhaps a prostitute like you can call as many men as you like". It is said that a fight between women is dirty, and cannot be resolved easily through violence like a man's conflict. As someone who had gotten himself involved in this, I found it painful to both look at and hear. "There was a teacher that passed by earlier, I think it's best if you left". Having no other choice, I stepped in and said those words to break the fight up. I'm sure Class C also does not wish to cause a scene here.

"I'm absolutely going to make you bow your head down before Rika". It was a threat to Karuizawa by the other side saying they would use any means necessary for that. Karuizawa desperately tried to act strong but it's obvious she's no longer capable of that. It seems the other girls have also sensed Karuizawa's weakness as they looked at Karuizawa from above with condescending looks. "Are you ok?". Unable to leave Karuizawa, who seemed to be hyperventilating, Yukimura asked her that.

(Continued)

>Since he got told to shut up by the Class C girls, this time Yukimura had no choice but to obediently shut up
thats really pathetic.

To be fair he's no fighter or schemer like 50%. Just a normal guy, and not a very strong or athletic one at that. Makes sense he'd chicken out like that after trying to play hero.

Horikita a shit. Daily reminder.

>"You shut up. This has nothing to do with you". ".....". Since he got told to shut up by the Class C girls, this time Yukimura had no choice but to obediently shut up. Karuizawa then started to look at Yukimura as if looking at a pathetic man while I slowly took out my phone quietly.
This is hilarious, I wish I could see Kei's face at this moment.

Yeah you're right, just checked the raws I thought that pic happens when 50% isolated Kei.

>Upon seeing me, they instantly lowered their voices in a disgusted manner and quickly distanced themselves from me.
That makes no sense. Its reasonable to Ayanokouji be unpopular due to his poor social skills, but hey have no motive to feel disgusted at seeing a handsome guy.

Scum people acts like that.

"Leave me alone!". Karuizawa quickly slapped Yukimura's hand away as he moved in to help her. "What the hell? I came to help you because I was worried". "Shut up! Nobody asked you to do it" Karuizawa said while getting her breath back. Yukimura took a step back as if overwhelmed by her words. I also stepped back to not get involved in it but Karuizawa stared at me intensely with an angry expression before opening the door of the emergency staircase with force. And then slamming it shut behind her. "What the hell is her problem? Always causing trouble for us". I do understand Yukimura's feelings of resent towards her. A 'troublemaker' is a nice way to describe Karuizawa.

But it seemed he was also tired out by the ordeal, as Yukimura did not say anything more and left from the emergency staircase door as well. Now alone on the emergency stairs, I thought about Karuizawa. And the vulnerable side the leader of the Class D girls had shown then.

(Continued)

The terrified appearance Karuizawa had just now was not only because she was being threatened at the time but due to something else.

(Continued. This finishes off part 3 of chapter 3. I'll continue with part 4 of chapter 3 of volume 4 in an hour or so. If thread's still alive I'll post here, if not I can make another one)

Honestly it makes sense to me given how Manabe's been portrayed so far. She seems to be the type who thinks anyone who's not the most popular guy around is a loser. So anyone aside from popular guys like Machida or Hirata, she'd think as losers. Since 50% is technically a nobody in his own class, she'd look at him as a bottom feeder. Same for her lackeys.

Thanks tl user.

thanks user.
we'll keep this thread alive.

Thanks user

Probably the face you'd make towards a cockroach or something equally pathetic.

And thus 50%'s keikaku begins

Kei a best.

No. Actual best girl here.

Wrong

Itchy nose pleases classmates and teachers for points.

Blessed. Yes you're blessed TL-user

That is not true, she is a lesbian in the making user.

I want to stain the mountaintops of this communist daughter.

>I also stepped back to not get involved in it but Karuizawa stared at me intensely with an angry expression
ha has no idea why she was angry that moment

Because she is scared and probably anguished, anguished people gets stressed out and mad with anything. All that because of the pain that she is feeling.

Anyone can tell me when this illustration happen?

God bless you, user.

Assuming it's from vol 4, then I guess that's from part 2 of chapter 3 when Kiyopon went to the group room and found out that there was only Ichinose at that room.

i think she looked angrily at him cz unlike Yukimura, 50% was the reason those girls left that scene and she wanted him to ask her if she's okay.

>Ichinose
Wait I mean Kei.

The moment Ayanokouji arrives first, Kei arrives later. She starts talking to her friend and later asks 50% if he's the target.

That's also the same scene of her vol 4 SS

I don't think she cares about him like that yet on this volume.

Just checked the raws. That pic happens when 50% is alone in the Rabbit room and then Kei comes on and starts talking to her friend, its also the same time as Karuizawa's SS from Volume 4.

Volume 2 is already finished?

Nope its only partly translated and the current translator for it went on hiatus.

Not yet. The group that was translating volume 2 dropped it about 1/3rd of the way in. So it's still stuck at that point. I think TL-user said once 4, 5, 6 and 7 are done he'll go back and translate the rest of volume 2.

its not about caring or not. at that moment it was his presence that made the bullies go away. and to her who was that scared of those girls he was like a savior (atleast for that moment)

>In the afternoon, I once again went to the discussion room of the (Rabbit) group. But even in the same place and the same space, depending on who you're with the atmosphere will also inevitably change. I arrived in the room ten minutes before the start of the discussion and the one who arrived right after me was Karuizawa. When she saw me, her expression changed into a disgusted one and she immediately averted her eyes away from me. She then sat in a corner of the room (the corner furthest away from me) and started fiddling with her phone. It's not like we had a fight or anything, or that we don't get along. I'm just simply put, hated by her. But that's the worst type of relationship to have.
If there is a reason behind the hate, there is room for reconciliation. However if there is only an ambiguous dislike of me, I cannot make any breakthrough with her. Currently, my standing with her is quite bad. I could have left the room and spent time out in the hallway until Ichinose and the others arrive. But I can't just leave because the atmosphere is getting awkward in here.

After this part here, it is the begining of chap 3 part 2.

Did the halfman win the Kei bowl yet?

Machida's well on his way to winning it that's for sure.

There's 2 POVs on this part highlighting the fact that this was the first time they were alone with each other.

You have 50%'s in Chapter 3 Part of Volume 4.
And then Karuizawa SS where she calls him good looking but anti-social(in her head ofc) then once they finished their brief convo she says he isn't a man.

Yeah he's not a man, but more like a gentleman.

Ironically enough he was the only one who actually saved her from her bullies not once but twice. The guys she previously depended on, both Hirata and Machida, actually failed to do anything and the one that initially came to save her, Yukimura, pussied out at the last minute. 50% was the only guy that stood up for her successfully. Makes sense she'd fall head over heels after that.

And then you realize she was bullied because of 50%

If Ayanokouji was X he wouldn't have helped Karuizawa. Just saying.

She likes it that way.

I watched the Anime adaptation of this today and it was alright, minus the copious amounts of fanservice and the ending. How far has the story progressed since then? What's up with all the flashbacks of the mc in school as a kid? Why did he suddenly get all "hurr durr people are tools"?

And will they adapt the series further?

>that file name
I laughed

>she literally fell for the guy that triggered again her bullying trauma
Really makes you think.

How's your back doing these days, Ibuki? Still hurting?

well the one who ended the trauma forever was also him

And then you realise despite knowing she was set up by 50% she still defends him.

fuck

Kei a shit. A SHIT.

This is shoujo LN, so that's not really weird at all.

Fucking shoujo girls and their rape fetish

>shoujo LN

I underestimated Kei based on her gyaru appearance.
She's actually really smart and manipulative, she takes advantage of her pretty face and cute like appearance(she doesn't have a lewd body like Sakura and Ichinose).

She instantly knew Machida was attracted to her and his status within the room
and took full advantage of it.

Her judgement skills are ridiculous which is why I need to ask. What the hell is up with her grades?

>guy kabedon'd girl
>guy almost raped girl
>not shoujo

>Her judgement skills are ridiculous which is why I need to ask. What the hell is up with her grades?
grades does not show your smartness,

>implying that these things doesn't happen in other genres as well

I just marathoned this the other day, really loved 50% man. Does he stay the same in the LN or does he start getting soft because of the girls?

True best girl and final boss.

>Does he stay the same in the LN or does he start getting soft because of the girls?
Opposite just look at this

He stills the same yet.

He's not an autistic robot, but when he is in 55-60% mode he's even scarier than the one you have just seen in ep 12 with his tool speech.

chances are high but there can be a hidden final boss

I really doubt she's the final boss to be honest. Kinugasa didn't go out of his way to introduce Kiyopapa and the White Room for nothing. That sort of past doesn't go away that easily. It's bound to come back and haunt 50%. Kiyopapa may have been forced to give up for now but remember we're still only 7 volumes in and only 1st year of school. Plenty of time for Kiyopapa to scheme. I wouldn't be surprised after Arisu goes down, Kiyopapa comes in as the final boss and last obstacle to Kiyotaka's freedom.

>How far has the story progressed since then?
It's almost reached Christmas by the vol 7 ended. The girl who we think would be a side-character becomes a heroine after vol 3 which anime covered up.

>What's up with all the flashbacks of the mc in school as a kid?
His father is a diet member if not a prime minister, and he's most likely eugenic. He sent his son to white room to train him into become a future leader or something like that.

>Why did he suddenly get all "hurr durr people are tools"?
He's already like that since vol 1 if I recall it right.

>And will they adapt the series further?
It's most unlikely happened. If it's getting sequel then it's either they would keep doing stupid things by replacing all heroines scenes to Horikita scenes just like the first season or do something like Kuroshitsuji or Ao no Exorcist which is ignoring the original content and adapts it faithfully.

No, it's not about getting raped, it's about getting dominated.

He's not even a robot in the LN.

Midnight after the second day had ended. The pool that was crowded during daytime was now silent. I was there to wait for a call to confirm a certain thing. Since the phones we were assigned after enrollment already had the contact numbers of the teachers added to them, it was an extremely simple task for me to contact Chabashira-sensei. Even though we were in the middle of summer, we're sailing right above the ocean's surface so the night wind was rather cold. "...sorry to keep you waiting, Ayanokouji". "I don't really care. More importantly, sorry for calling you out this late". "It's a consultation from a student, as a teacher I have an obligation to respond. It's nothing strange. For better or for worse, this is your first time calling me out here alone".

Chabashira-sensei who does not handle Class D with love, is not very well-liked by the students even in flattery. Even if the students have a problem, they are unlikely to ask her for a consultation. "There's something I'd like to ask sensei...your face is looking quite pale". I didn't notice at first in the dark. But Chabashira-sensei had a deathly pale face.

(Continued. This is now part 4 of chapter 3.)

"...don't worry about it. It's just adult things. So what's the matter?". I could more or less understand the situation since I could smell the alcohol coming from her breath. "In this school, you told me there's nothing that cannot be 'bought' with points. But there are exceptions correct?". "I suppose so, exceptions naturally exist. For example, if you try to buy the lives of teachers and students with points we cannot allow that to happen".
