Nanase Tsubasa's Unique Personality
"Most of them are from Class A of the First Year and Class B of the First Year. They are all quite easy to talk to, and it's easy to reach an agreement."
Ichinose Honami has been working hard all day. She doesn't need to worry about not being able to find a team, since her academic level is A. She just needs to find a freshman with an academic level of D or above to team up with.
"Honami. I didn't even have to do much."
Hashiba Hikaru put his arm around his girlfriend's shoulder and said with some guilt.
"There are more important things to do, and nobody will mind."
Ichinose Honami had been keeping an eye on Hashiba Hikaru's situation all day, including the first-year junior who approached her and Sakayanagi Arisu multiple conversations with Kiyotaka Ayanokouji and Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, but she didn't inquire about it.
"I do have some troublesome things to deal with right now, but don't worry, Honami, I'm confident I can handle them."
Hashiba Hikaru took her small hand and said gently, "I'll leave the class affairs to you."
"Yes, I'll try my best to lead everyone in this exam. Just focus on taking care of your own things."
Ichinose Honami nodded. This Special Exam wasn't complicated, and the girl was confident she could do her best.
"Thank you, Honami."
"Seriously, do I really need to say thank you to Hikaru?"
Ichinose Honami playfully slapped him, saying, "As long as Hikaru stays by my side, nothing can defeat me."
"Of course."
The boy smiled and gently took her small hand in his.
The next day at noon, after Hashiba Hikaru finished lunch, she received a text message on her phone from Sakayanagi Arisu.
He said a couple of words to his girlfriend, then got up and left the classroom.
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Sakayanagi Arisu were already waiting at the bottom of the stairs, both of them looking forward to today's operation.
"Let's start with Class D of the First Year; maybe we'll only need to visit one classroom."
Hashiba Hikaru smiled slightly, a playful glint in her eyes.
"Can."
The three of them went downstairs to the first-year floor. Just as they reached the corner, they suddenly ran into two freshmen wearing first-year uniforms.
"You must be the Student Council President Senior Hashiba?"
A rather refined female voice reached her ears, Hashiba Hikaru subconsciously stopped in her tracks. Sakayanagi Arisu and Ayanokoji Kiyotaka behind her also looked over.
Who are you?
Hashiba Hikaru sized up the two people who appeared before her. The one in front was a burly young man with a neat short haircut. He looked very confident and exuded an aura that was not easy to mess with.
Standing to the side was a petite figure, presumably the junior who had spoken to her earlier.
The girl had a delicate and pretty face, long light golden hair, and a well-proportioned figure. Her eyebrows and eyes were very regular, and she looked like a serious person.
"I'm Nanase Tsubasa from Class D of the First Year. This is my classmate Hosen Kazuomi."
The girl seemed to be positioned as the spokesperson and took the initiative to introduce herself.
"Oh?"
Hashiba Hikaru raised an eyebrow slightly as he looked at the tall boy in front of him. The boy was about five or six centimeters taller than Hashiba Hikaru, and a contemptuous smile played on his lips.
"You're all students in Class D? I was just about to go to your class."
"Is there something you need, Senior Hashiba?"
Nanase Tsubasa glanced at the student beside her named Hosen Kazuomi and explained, "We're actually quite busy right now. If possible, we hope to help you resolve this as soon as possible."
"Hehe, don't be in such a hurry, it seems we're quite destined to meet today."
Hashiba Hikaru gestured for Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Sakayanagi Arisu to stand a little further away, while he himself stepped forward and spoke softly.
"I just have a few simple questions to ask, it won't take up too much of your time."
Why should we answer you?
Hosen Kazuomi frowned, their tone sharp.
"Hehe, it seems this junior has quite a temper."
Hashiba Hikaru's gaze turned slightly cold, and then she slowly extended her right hand.
"As your senior, let me teach you something first..."
He moved quickly, placing his hand directly on Hosen Kazuomi's shoulders. Before they could instinctively show their displeasure and try to brush him away, he suddenly pressed down hard.
[Exclusive Talent: Peerless Overlord Unlocked!]
When this talent was activated, a massive aura was released from Hashiba Hikaru's body, instantly enveloping everyone present.
Everyone, including Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, suddenly felt a terrifying mental pressure, and their expressions changed drastically regardless of gender.
As for Hosen Kazuomi, who were closest to him, when Hashiba Hikaru stared at him, his head exploded with a loud bang, and a violent mental pressure rushed straight to the top of his head.
Besides a splitting headache, Hosen even felt a chilling aura creeping up his spine. His once strong body suddenly became uncontrollable, as if all his strength had been suddenly drained away, and his thighs began to tremble uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Hashiba Hikaru increased the pressure on her hand and pressed down again.
"Thump!"
Hosen Kazuomi felt an immense pressure on their shoulders, and they lost control of their bodies, suddenly kneeling down on the ground.
The pain from his knee hitting the concrete instantly contorted his face, and he let out a muffled groan.
"It's better for newcomers to be honest, otherwise, I wouldn't mind teaching you what respect and hierarchy mean."
Looking at Hosen Kazuomi kneeling before him, Hashiba Hikaru withdrew his right hand, his tone calm.
Chapter 716 Nanase Tsubasa's Unique Personality.
"Hosen, classmate!"
When Nanase Tsubasa witnessed her companion being suddenly forced to kneel on the ground by Hashiba Hikaru, she was startled and immediately cried out in surprise.
"... You damned bastard!!!"
Although Hosen Kazuomi were still shrouded in a powerful aura, once they realized what was happening, they immediately threw a punch at Hashiba Hikaru.
"Smack!"
Hashiba Hikaru grabbed his wrist and twisted it outwards with force, causing him to scream again.
"Ugh!!!"
"It seems you still didn't understand what I was saying. In that case, perhaps I should ask you to make a trip to the Disciplinary Committee."
"Senior Hashiba!"
Nanase Tsubasa stared at Hashiba Hikaru's hand, her tone turning cold as she questioned, "Does Senior Hashiba intend to start a fight right here?"
"Hehe, what Nanase- senpai said is really strange. He was clearly about to hit me just now, I was acting in self-defense."
Hashiba Hikaru's tone was playful. "Didn't you see it?"
"But just now..."
Nanase Tsubasa was about to continue arguing when she suddenly met Hashiba Hikaru's cold gaze. That chilling aura washed over her again, causing the girl to open her mouth but not utter a single word.
"Hosen, can we speak properly now?"
Looking at the first-year student kneeling in front of him, Hosen Kazuomi's originally tall body was bent over, and his wrist was being held by Hashiba Hikaru, with no chance of breaking free.
"Ugh... let me go first..."
"Of course, no problem."
The next moment, Hashiba Hikaru shook off his wrist as if throwing away trash. With the loss of force from the movement, Hosen Kazuomi's body leaned backward instantly, and it took him several seconds to regain his balance.
"Who... exactly are you?"
Hosen Kazuomi struggled to their feet, supporting themselves on the ground with their still trembling legs. Once they were standing, they stared intently at Hashiba Hikaru's face, their hearts filled with a jumble of emotions.
There was fear, anger, shame, hatred, and unparalleled shock.
"I haven't formally introduced myself to you two yet. I'm Hashiba Hikaru, the Student Council President of this school, and also the person directly in charge of the Disciplinary Committee. You'll see me around the school quite often in the future."
"Senior Hashiba..."
After Hosen Kazuomi stood up, Nanase Tsubasa, fearing that they would clash again, directly blocked Hashiba Hikaru with her body.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else you need to tell me Nanase- senpai?"
"Didn't Senior Hashiba just say he had some simple questions he wanted to ask us? You can ask us directly, and I promise to answer them to the best of my knowledge."
"Real?"
Hashiba Hikaru glanced at Hosen Kazuomi, who was stroking his wrist. Once the other man stood up, the boy deactivated his [Peerless Overlord] mode, knowing that he wouldn't be able to handle it for long.
"Is Hosen willing to answer my question? Or... are you still unconvinced?"
"..."
"Of course not, Hosen was just a little... surprised. If you have any questions Senior Hashiba, feel free to ask me."
Nanase Tsubasa noticed Hosen Kazuomi's actions. If a physical conflict were to break out later, this boy in her class would definitely be at a disadvantage. After all, the aura and pressure that Hashiba Hikaru had just released were too terrifying, leaving her still feeling lingering fear.
"... Just ask whatever you want to ask."
Hosen Kazuomi remained silent for a while, but in the end, they suppressed the urge to take action.
He wasn't stupid. Now that he had sensed the unfathomable strength of his opponent, if another conflict arose, Hashiba Hikaru's identity Student Council President could erase many traces, and he would be the one who suffered.
This spot is located at the corner of the stairs, a place without security cameras. If a fight breaks out, it will be difficult to resolve the situation amicably.
"It's very simple, just two questions. After you've asked them, I won't bother you anymore."
Hashiba Hikaru glanced at Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Sakayanagi Arisu, who were standing in the distance. Ayanokoji still had a blank expression, while Sakayanagi Arisu looked a little unnatural, after all, they had just experienced the effects of [Peerless Overlord] together.
"First question, who is the current leader of your Class D of the First Year?"
Hashiba Hikaru ignored Hosen Kazuomi; the other party probably wasn't an idiot, just had a bad temper. Anyway, she'd already taught him a lesson, so she should get down to business first.
"This..."
Nanase Tsubasa seemed hesitant, but under Hashiba Hikaru's scrutiny, she finally gave the answer.
"Currently, Hosen and I are both doing things for everyone, so I guess you could say we're part-time leaders."
"Is that so?"
Hashiba Hikaru took a second look at the two people in front of her.
Hosen Kazuomi and Nanase Tsubasa, one with a bad temper and tall stature, is like the class's number Class D of the First Year together.
"Alright then, the second question is, how many people in your class have formed teams so far? I'd like to know your preference."
When she asked the second question, Hashiba Hikaru's tone suddenly became casual.
He didn't ask why no one from Class D of the First Year had attended the exchange meeting yesterday. Instead, he went straight to getting more important information. Even if the other party's answer was false, it didn't matter. He had already given them enough of a show of force.
In this Special Exam, Class D of the First Year was not actually the best partner, but Hashiba Hikaru didn't care.
"Our class hasn't formed any teams yet; everyone has other ideas."
Nanase Tsubasa wasn't lying, so her expression remained calm, and she stared directly at Hashiba Hikaru's face.
"Alright then, if your class is interested in collaborating, feel free to contact our Class 2-A."
Hashiba Hikaru smiled slightly and continued, "If Nanase- senpai is interested in the Student Council, feel free to call me anytime. How about we exchange contact information?"
"OK."
Faced with this request, Nanase Tsubasa's expression Matsushita, and she immediately took out her phone.
After exchanging contact information with Hashiba Hikaru stepped aside and said to the two Class D of the First Year, "Since you have other things to do, please proceed."
"Senior Hashiba."
Nanase Tsubasa and Hosen Kazuomi walked past the boy, and the girl nodded to Hashiba Hikaru before going upstairs.
As for the tall first-year boy, he still seemed somewhat unwilling, with deep resentment hidden in his eyes, but he certainly didn't dare to show it at this moment.
