Felix's Classroom Of The Elite

When I openly asked Matsushita-san if she had time to spare, girls in her group looked at me with a surprised expression, however, one who was surprised the most was Matsushita herself. I guess it was because it was the first time I approached her myself.

She agreed and we went out of the classroom to find a quiet place to talk.

I guess this place is good enough. I thought as I checked our surroundings.

"Matsushita-san, can I trust you?" I narrowed my eyes and I didn't even bother to hide my wild and savage aura.

When she heard my question she appeared to be confused, however, when she saw my eyes and felt how aura around me drastically changed she trembled in fear. She couldn't even look at me.

I guess I went too far... She is, after all, just a teenage girl. I am being too paranoid from my past mistakes.

*sigh* "I am sorry about that, Matsushita-san. I didn't want to scare you." I quickly apologized to her because it looked like she would start crying sooner or later.

*deep breathing* "It's ok, I- I was just surprised" She told me while clutching her heart. There was still some fear visible in her eyes.

I lightly smiled, brought my face closer to hers and she became a bit red. It seems that this action made her fear completely disappear. I think I know how she feels about me but I don't think I can do it, at least not now. My current goal is to secure a good future and to ensure that I won't become someone's puppet. Romance is something I never experienced and I am still not ready for it even though my real age is already around 30. I might even feel weird by dating a teenager if I had to choose right now who to date I would rather go for our homeroom teacher than students from my class.

I wonder what would my parents think of me after seeing me intimidate a teenage girl. They would perhaps understand my coldhearted thoughts towards people but I doubt they would be happy seeing me bully weak people.

"The thing I wanted to ask you is... Do you think that our class won't have any problems completing the midterm exam?" I calmed myself and asked her with a smile.

"Huh? Hmm, I don't think it will be easy but if we will study enough for it, I am confident that no one will drop out." Matsushita-san told me her honest thoughts about our class.

"Yes, if everyone will give their all to studying then no one will drop out. But do you really think everyone will study for it seriously? Even if you are under pressure of being expelled there are some people who won't learn anything until they are taught a lesson, however, it would already be too late at that time." I told her while looking out of the window.

"You think that there will be students with no motivation to study?" (Matsushita)

"That's right plus don't you think that it's always better to be prepared for the worst?"

"I guess you are right but what should we do if they don't want to study?" (Matsushita)

We? Hmm, I guess I could trust her a bit with this plan.

"I already thought about something, if we can't force them to study we will simply make it so that they don't have to study."

"What? How?" Matsushita-san's expression was full of confusion.

"Come with me after school and you will naturally learn how." I told her and went back to the classroom.

----(Horikita's POV)----

I shouldn't have been placed in class D. Everyone there is simply too childish and can't take the school seriously, well exception of Ayanokoji-kun and Walker-kun but that's probably only because they are loners. At least that's what I thought so until my last encounter with brother. After that incident, I got to know that Ayanokoji-kun is someone who even rigged his entrance exam just to get into class D. I can't understand how anyone would want to be placed into that class. Walker-kun also doesn't look simple, however, what is interesting aren't his academic results but his physical ability and unknown background.

These two also had few objections about my attitude. I don't really understand why we shouldn't let people who slow us down get expelled. I resolved myself to go talk to Chabashira-sensei.

----Guidance room----

"Well, do you have anything to say to me? Horikita." Chabashira-sensei asked me with a confident smile like she was already expecting me.

"I want to ask you why I was put into class D. Sensei kept mentioning that classes are divided by superiority and I don't really see a real reason why I should be in class D, the lowest collection of leftovers." I told her frankly.

"Hmm, so you consider yourself as a superior person? You are definitely smart for a student from class D and your entrance exam's scores were high, however, being able to study won't get you sorted into higher classes." (Chabashira)

"But shouldn't I be sorted at least into class C and not D? You yourself said that I had a high score on the entrance exam. This is just common sense." I was feeling hopeless, how can they sort smart person into class D?

"Like I already told you, just being able to study won't get you anywhere. This school's goal is to produce excellent people and not just smart people. Everyone can study hard to become smarter but there are things they won't be able to get better at with just studying alone. Just look into your class, do you think that everyone would be able to make it into this school solely by studying? Plus I don't get why are you so against being sorted into class D. Do you think that for example, class A has no worries at all? They are constantly being under pressure from other classes therefore there also exists students who are fine by being sorted into lower classes." Chabashira-sensei gave me a long lesson before allowing me to talk once again.

"You are joking, right? Why would anyone want to be placed in lower class?" I asked her but then I remembered Ayanokoji-kun's rigged exam and Walker-kun's mysteriousness. I can't really understand why he did that.

"Really? I think there are a few students like that in class D. What is important is their reason for doing so, some of them could do it for low pressure or some could do it just for fun."

"I shouldn't tell you this but since it's only you, I don't think there is any problem with it. Do you know anything about Felix Walker from your class?" Chabashira-sensei asked me about Walker-kun which made me a bit surprised.

"I had minimal interaction with him so I don't know much, only that his academic ability is above average and his physical ability is quite high"

"Heh, if he was an only average student then why was he all smiles when I was criticizing your entire class for your incompetence." Chabashira-sensei lightly laughed.

"Wait, then that rumor in our class was from him?!" I blurted out without thinking.

----(Horikita's POV end)----

"Please make it quick if you have something to talk about with me." The girl said aloud.

"I want to buy the midterm exam's questions from your 1st year." I frankly mentioned my reason for this meeting which greatly surprised Matsushita-san.

"How much are you willing to offer?" The girl asked me with her voice down.

I simply showed her 2 fingers.

"What?! You can't expect me to sell them for 2.000 points. I could get into trouble because of this." The girl screamed out but she immediately covered her mouth and checked our surroundings.

"I am offering you 2.000 points for showing these questions to me for a mere 3 minutes. No photos, no notes." I calmly told her completely unfazed by her earlier scream.

"WHAT?!" This time even Matsushita-san screamed out.

For fuċk's sake do you have to scream out every time I speak out?

"*Walker-kun, why do you want to waste your 2.000 points like this?*" Matsushita-san whispered to me, trying to change my mind, however, I simply ignored her.

"Deal or no? We can even record this conversation if you are insecure about my promise. You have 10 seconds to decide." I told her

"I..." The girl was hesitating a bit

"5 seconds."

"OK!" She screamed out, afraid to lose free 2.000 points

She borrowed her phone to me for 3 minutes which was more than enough for me to remember all the questions.

I was walking with Matsushita-san towards dorms.

"I don't understand why you wasted your points like that." Matsushita-san still felt what I did was a waste, if only she knew I have a photographic memory.

"Don't worry about it but tell me, do you want to become center of attention in class or would you rather avoid that?" I asked her

"Huh? It would depend on what kind of attention would it be." (Matsushita)

"It would be mostly positive attention."

"Then I guess I wouldn't mind it." (Matsushita)

"Great, I will tell you about my plan tomorrow, goodnight."

"Although I don't really understand what happened today I will put my trust in you Walker-kun, sweet dreams to you!" Matsushita-san stuck out her tongue and winked at me before running away to her dorms.

"This girl...ugh" I murmured while scratching my head.
