Fake 98: Second Coming Of Overnight Cramming Sessions

At last, the time for the final exams has arrived.
I have already diligently taken lectures from Aoi, and even yesterday, I stayed up most of the night studying.

“Rin-kun, let’s do our best today♪.”

I felt it last time as well—even though Aoi was accompanying me and should have spent the same amount of time studying as me, she is smiling and energetic like usual.
Perhaps, Aoi has a fundamentally different bodily constitution than mine.
I parted with Aoi and took my seat in the classroom.
Unlike usual, most of the students were intensely staring at their textbooks.
Even Honda, whom I got used to exchange greetings every day, did not come to greet me today and was studying.
Come to think of it, I wonder how he is doing with his studies.

“Everyone, you don’t need to be this serious, right? After all, the final exam is the accumulation of everything up till now~. At this point, it won’t make a difference even if you try a little harder. Let’s relax and have a go at it!”

“Ehh~ Atashiro-kun sure has it easy~.”

“It is not to that extent, but it is somewhat close~. Well, no matter how bad it goes, I suppose I can still get within the top 30 in our grade.”

“As expected of Atashiro-kun!”

There is a guy who is talking like he is different from everyone else. Even so, Atashiro is also aiming for the top 30, huh? From his impression, he must be confident in getting within top 30.
I never told anyone that my goal is to get within top 30, and I had no intention to compete with Atashiro either. Nevertheless, when I heard that Atashiro was also aiming for the same goal as me, my tiny pride was slightly agitated.
I really don’t want to lose to Atashiro……
Atashiro’s words—there is no point in struggling at this stage. Certainly, that may be true, but I will struggle until the last moment.
I tried recalling the knowledge I crammed last night, but my retention has dramatically improved compared to the time before the previous test.
I believe it is because of my daily accumulation and the fact that this is my second time doing overnight cramming sessions with Aoi, that I was able to grasp the essential points.
After the morning assembly ended, the test started immediately.
I was answering the questions, and sure enough I could answer more than last time. If it is like this……
Heightening my concentration even further, I continued to answer the test questions.
The fourth period ended before I noticed, concluding today’s test.

“Rin-kun, let’s go home.”

“Ahh, alright then.”

“Rin-kun, how was the test?”

“Yes, I think I am doing pretty well this time. I believe I answered the questions quite nicely.”

“I am glad to hear that. The next two days as well, let’s do our best.”

“Yeah, let’s do our best.”

The next two days……
Anyway, I have no choice but to give it my all.
As one would expect, staying up all night for two days straight is impossible. So, I took a nap for about 2 hours as soon as I got home, and did another all-nighter for the second day.

“Rin-kun, should I make you some coffee or tea?”

“Then, I’d like a cup of tea.”

Since Aoi raised the suggestion, I decided to rely on caffeine to keep my body awake.

“2:00AM, huh…… Around 5 hours left.”

I felt like I was going to die last time. But, this time, it might be because I resolved myself according to my previous experience, I feel like I can still keep at it.

“Sorry to keep you waiting. Here is some tea and chocolate. I heard that having more sugar intake can help you learn more efficiently.”

“Thank you.”

Although I don’t usually eat chocolate, I am really grateful for Aoi’s thoughtfulness right now.
In this way, I welcomed the morning of the second day of my battle.
