Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom

But that doesn't matter.

Because everyone has worked hard together and traveled such a long distance together, we are destined to be here.

And have a common goal.

As one of them, he also hopes to work with everyone towards the graduation of Class A.

so.

He will wait, and he will catch up responsibly despite the distance lost by his classmates.

"It wouldn't be fun if I ran away first."

Oreki-san said.

At the same time, he called up the system prompts.

[Task requirement: Defeat Nagyunya in the 1,200-meter grade-wide relay]

[Mission deadline: the day of the sports festival]

[Task penalty: Deduction of 100,000 personal points]

[Task reward: Equivalent exchange of special abilities]

Oreki-san calmly clicked on the mission reward.

[Equivalent exchange: The function is to exchange things for objects "equally" through the values ​​​​of recent civilizations. The price difference can be within 10%, controllable, and has no defects. It can be used on people, but the default value of the human body is zero, so Often the item is exchanged for something of the same value as the target's clothing. ]

Um.

This side mission is still so reassuring.

It's not that the penalty is very low, it's just a drizzle of 100,000 points, but it is to defeat Nagumo, and Nagumo is already running in front, so all he has to do is catch up and surpass him.

but.

"Speaking of which, you just saw it." Oreki-san did not forget his goal. "Your sister."

"..." Horikita learned. "Well, I saw that she worked very hard."

"I thought she had dropped out."

In other words, he was actually concerned about the fact that his sister was injured during the 200 meters.

"That's just a trick." Oreki-san said. "The entry form for Class C has been leaked, and the students in the class really can't bring it up."

"oh."

"I see."

"But in the end, being able to get Takaharaji and Sudo to take action also means that something has been accomplished, right?" Horikita Manabu said.

As the student council president, he knows the mechanism of this school very well.

At the same time, I also know how bad Class D is.

but.

This year’s students are an eye-opener.

From Oreki, Itayanagi, Katsuragi in Class A, to Ryuen, Ichinose, Takagenji, and so on.

Compared with previous years, they all appear to be even more outstanding.

"But it's a pity, because they will lose in the 1,200-meter relay this time," Oreki said.

"But it's not bad, isn't it."

Horikita Manabu said. "They've shown what they can do."

"I have always thought that students from this school are selected and submitted."

"And in the end, only those who graduate from Class A can have the promise that the school can fulfill."

"However, if students can persevere in this school, then in the future they will be different from students outside when they graduate, enter the society, go to school or work. They will have more solutions to the difficulties in life, work and school. methods and experience.”

"The special exam is difficult and complicated, but after experiencing it, you can learn thinking patterns, cracking plans, unity and cooperation, etc. These are valuable assets for students."

"So I have never been able to agree with Nagumo's philosophy." Horikita Manabu said.

Nanyun's philosophy is that strength comes first, and students who are not strong enough are directly excluded.

Those with strength climb up.

And this almost means giving up Class D or Class C.

This is something Horikita absolutely disagrees with.

"..."

And because you have this kind of thought, you are called the best student council president.

Oreki-san thought to himself.

But now that Horikita brother has begun to express his feelings, does it actually mean that Horikita Manabu is actually quite happy with the answer sheet submitted by Horikita sister?

As for Oreki-san.

Goal achieved.

If he chooses lawyer Horikita, then when he comes to visit in the future, Brother Horikita, a sensible person, will not stand in the way.

Eh.

Interpersonal communication is really not easy, Oreki-san sighed inwardly.

But it’s great that Horikita-nii is Horikita-san’s older brother.

because.

Both of them are similar in that they are easier to fool.

"Oreki-san——"

While Oreki-san was thinking about socializing with the Horikita siblings, Kamuro-san, the fifth stick, had already arrived.

But she looked at Oreki-san with some surprise.

Because even though Oreki held the baton in his left hand, Oreki-san didn’t run forward immediately.

Instead, he just held the baton and stood aside.

"Thank you for your hard work," Oreki-san said. "I made an appointment with President Horikita to compete, so it would be rude to run first now."

"..." The divine room.

profound!

Then you are great.

She had run so hard just now, and then managed to shorten the distance by 5 meters.

Did you end up not caring about it at all?

Although he felt unhappy, Kamuro-san did not have an attack.

Then she heard Oreki-san's voice again.

"You just shortened the distance and exceeded your limit. You have worked very hard, Kamuro-san." Oreki-san said.

oh.

That said, I noticed that she tried hard.

So Kamuro-san, who was in a recovered mood, walked aside.

Her fifth stick would be in the way if she stayed here any longer.

So Oreki-san just held the baton and stood there, letting the last batons from other classes pass by.

One or two classes passed.

Not moving at all.

Still maintaining the same starting point as Horikita Manabu.

And Manabu Horikita noticed this scene and smiled.

But Oreki-san’s unusual behavior immediately attracted the audience’s attention.

Sensing the strangeness, the audience all looked over.

Akane Tachibana, the fifth stick member from Class A of the third grade who had belatedly arrived in sixth place, also discovered this, so she sprinted over as fast as she could.

And when Horikita Manabu and Tachibana Akane handed over the baton, Horikita brother finally made the declaration that Nagumo wanted to make before.

"This will be the beginning of a new era!"

"Oreki, you can run away as much as you like."

"Even I really want to understand the limits of human speed!"

…

Oreki-san turned his head slightly, as if responding to him, but then, he disappeared from sight like the wind.

"Thank you for your hard work. Akane Tachibana, you can go and rest."

As for Horikita-nii, the moment he grasped the baton, he did not drop it.

Before his voice could even finish, his entire figure had disappeared from Ju Qian's face.

And when Tachibana Akane blinked again, she saw that Horikita Manabu was already chasing Oreki-senpai in front like the wind.

But between two breaths, he had already reached the same level as Oreki's junior.

The two go hand in hand!

"Liar!"

"Has Horikita-san actually been teasing everyone all this time?"

Akane Tachibana is a student in Horikita Gakuen's class, and she is also one of the few people in the class who can support and support Horikita Gakuin.

As the designated secretary of Horikita Gakushu.

Tachibana Akane felt that she knew enough about Horikita Manabu.

result……

Today I discovered that Horikita Manabu has been suppressing himself. He is good enough, but he does not fully show it or take it seriously.

In other words, he has never found anyone in school who can make him completely serious.

…

"It's really beyond appearances!"

The first pitch was over, and Gao Yuanji returned to the audience and stared at the field.

"I feel a little regretful," he said. "I shouldn't have been the first. I always felt like I was bullying others. So I never wanted to compete with you mortals."

"but now."

“I really want to compete with them!”

"..."

No.

You are already strong.

And the classmates who were in the audience together thought in their hearts.

Kogenji has always been a loner in Class C, and is quite casual.

He was regarded as a problem child by everyone.

But facing the Kojima exam, they gave them unbelievable high scores, and then even ran the limit of 25 meters. This made the students who were poor athletes who had experienced the sports festival and did not get any good results in the exam A huge reaction has already occurred in my heart.

Kamuro-san from Class 5, Class A, who had just stepped out of the way, was staring ahead.

At the same time, she noticed that her phone vibrated.

Sakayanagi Arisu called.

"..." The divine room.
