Classroom of the Elite: Houtarou Oreki

So his Points were 35.

And in second place was Rokosuke Kōenji.

His Points were 33.

That meant he had lost one event.

It was probably an event that overlapped with Ayanokouji's.

In other words—

Kōenji had lost to Ayanokouji when he was not holding back.

Oreki felt a little sorry for Kōenji. His pride was probably... wounded right now.

It was indeed wounded.

He had wanted to face Oreki before, only to be stood up.

Then, in this round of events, he had not teamed up with Oreki because he wanted to maximize his Points.

But—

Just now—

In the 1,000-meter event, Kōenji had lost to Ayanokouji.

"You bastard%..." Kōenji said. "You really know how to hide your strength!"

Yes.

If Ayanokouji had participated during last year's Sports Festival, the outcome might have been different.

But he had not.

Only now had he revealed his true ability.

In other words—

"It must be the temptation of the Class Transfer Ticket..."

"Then come to Class A!"

Kōenji said.

As long as he came to Class A, they would have another chance to compete.

In other words, Kōenji did not want to admit defeat.

Oreki continued looking through the data on his tablet.

Since the data was updated in real time, he could also see the results from other grades.

Oreki pulled up the first-years' data.

no.1 Ichika Amasawa, 35 Points

no.2 Tsubasa Nanase, 31 Points

Hmm.

They were both underclassmen he knew.

And among them... Amasawa was truly formidable.

As expected of a White Room Student.

Oreki had heard from Ichika Amasawa that although she was a White Room Student, she was not an ordinary White Room Student in the conventional sense. She had existed as part of a control group.

In other words, she had talent to begin with.
