Classroom of the Elite: The Strength of Kageya Shinjitsu

He could also sense that Ike Kanji and the others had previously clashed with Kageya Shinjitsu.

All of this had to be stopped.

After quickly changing into his swimming trunks, he headed outside.

The indoor swimming pool was a massive fifty-meter pool with clear, clean water and a decent environment, though a few people were ruining the atmosphere.

As soon as he stepped out, Kageya Shinjitsu heard the boys gathered together, making strange noises—a mix of excitement and regret. It seemed they had already forgotten the pain of their previous wounds.

Even Ike Kanji was currently beside himself with excitement, glancing from time to time at the graceful figure of Kushida Kikyo, and occasionally looking in other directions.

Following their line of sight, he saw the spectator stands above.

Students were sitting there, still wearing their school uniforms, clearly not intending to participate in this swimming class. It made Kageya Shinjitsu wonder if he should just give up on participating as well.

But upon closer reflection, he didn't really have a good excuse.

After all, girls had a natural advantage when it came to taking leave; especially if they just claimed it was that time of the month, even male teachers couldn't say much.

Skipping class was probably out of the question; he had already changed and come all this way, so he might as well save the truancy for next time.

If he had known, he should have let himself get hit, then used that as an excuse to take leave. He might have even been able to demand points as compensation for medical expenses and the like.

He could have turned that guy Ike Kanji into a debt slave.

Meanwhile, up above, the boys' focused gazes were naturally fixed on the number one student they had long been anticipating.

Hasebe Haruka was sitting there, toying with her light blue hair.

She had no intention of joining the swimming class at all. Upon noticing the strange noises from the boys, her eyes were filled with disgust and disdain, looking just like a girl who had been caught having her underwear peeked at.

If she encountered a pervert, it would probably just make them even more excited; perhaps some of the boys in the class were already yearning to be stepped on by Hasebe Haruka a few times.

These circumstances had already led Hasebe Haruka to give up on the swimming class.

Being extremely sensitive to the boys' gazes, combined with the bizarre things the boys in the class had said earlier, had long since made her decide against participating in swimming.

She might even skip swimming classes from here on out.

All of this left the boys who had been waiting for so long feeling nothing but regret.

"Why isn't Hasebe Haruka-san participating?"

"Why is it like this?"

"What a pity, I've been looking forward to this for so long."

"Is she on her period?"

"Damn it, the data won't be perfect now."

"How are we supposed to calculate this?"

"Kushida-san is so well-endowed."

"Damn it, I really want to be with little Kushida."

"Are you guys seriously trying to pursue Kushida?"

"Isn't that obvious? And honestly, she's my soulmate."

Walking past the boys, Kageya Shinjitsu could hear their chaotic chatter.

Yamauchi Haruki, Ike Kanji, and the others seemed to have forgotten what happened in the changing room, their eyes fixed entirely on Kushida Kikyo.

Of course, Yamauchi Haruki was more broad-minded; he was also quite interested in Sakura-san, perhaps even fantasizing about how to take down both girls at once and become a damn winner in life.

Seeing the hostile expressions of the boys, Kageya Shinjitsu didn't care, flashing a provocative smile before quickly walking away.

This only made them even more furious.

"Bastard, this guy..."

"Are you guys going to help me or not?"

"We have to find a place, we can't let him get away with this."

Seeing that smile, Ike Kanji was instantly annoyed.

He turned to Yamauchi Haruki, Sudo Ken, and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka.

Not to mention the others, these few were supposed to be his "closest" friends.

The others actually heard this, but they tacitly chose not to chime in, still troubled by their data PPTs and spreadsheets. After all, the number of female students taking leave was truly beyond their expectations.

The information was incomplete...

Chapter 32 Kushida: Let's Exercise Together Sometime

Facing the question.

"Ah, ah..."

"Are you really going to do this?"

Yamauchi Haruki looked at Ike Kanji in surprise, hesitant to agree immediately to the sudden proposal.

Following that, he glanced at the other two, noting Ike Kanji's disgruntled expression.

"His target is also Kushida Kikyo. Are you really going to let such a sinister guy get away with it?"

Ike Kanji pressed harder.

He knew Yamauchi Haruki all too well.

"How could I? I was just considering if it would be too much bullying. I was a karate champion in middle school; you saw it back when we started school, right? I walked right up to him and interrupted, and he didn't dare say a word. Kushida Kikyo even promised to exercise with me later."

Yamauchi Haruki spoke 'toughly,' throwing in some nonsense for good measure.

He even embellished his memory of his 'victory' in the confrontation with Kageya Shinjitsu.

The situation earlier must have been a misunderstanding.

He also took a look at Sudo Ken.

Even if something unexpected happened, there was nothing to fear with Sudo Ken around.

Plus, there was Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, who was even worse than him, to act as a bottom-tier buffer.

How could the Advanced Nurturing High School F4, consisting of the four of them, possibly fail to deal with a guy like Kageya Shinjitsu?

"Hmph, if Ayanokouji hadn't stopped me earlier, I would have already made my move."

Sudo Ken looked back at Yamauchi Haruki and spoke with disdain.

"Ah, yeah, oh, I was just worried about class."

"Besides, it wouldn't have been appropriate inside." Ayanokouji Kiyotaka made up an excuse.

"Forget about what happened earlier. I just want to know if you're going to help or not."

With the other three already in agreement, Ike Kanji pressed his advantage and stared at Ayanokouji Kiyotaka.

This atmosphere, this feeling.

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka sensed it very keenly.

If he refused, he would probably be kicked out of the group chat later.

"I'll help, but let's get this straight: I'm not very good at fighting."

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, the 'not good at fighting' persona, went online.

He wouldn't give them too much expectation; if something really happened, he would just lie down and play dead.

"With Sudo here, what are you worried about? We just need to plan it out, find a place with no one around, or make him the one in the wrong. That way, he'll have nowhere to complain, and we won't get disciplined by the school."

Ike Kanji acted as if he had it all planned out.

Hearing that Ike Kanji wasn't just going to stupidly rush in and start a fight, Yamauchi Haruki and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

At the very least, the most troublesome scenario had been avoided.

"I didn't realize you actually had a brain."

"Hmph, what are you saying? Let's plan this properly. It would be best if we could make that bastard offend Kushida Kikyo."

"Damn guy, he's harassing Kushida Kikyo again."

The trio of Ike Kanji, joined by Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, became a quartet.

They were already planning to take action against Kageya Shinjitsu.

When they looked in his direction and noticed Kushida Kikyo, it made them even more jealous and angry.

Kushida Kikyo attracted the attention of most of the people present. She was already one of the focal points, and as soon as she appeared, she drew gazes. Her ample assets were even larger than imagined, and the fleshy, well-proportioned curves of her thighs and buttocks were exceptionally vivid.

Plump, perhaps that was the word for a girl with a bit of meat on her bones.

If you keep staring, you're going to get worked up.

Those idiots, they've got some nerve.

Kageya Shinjitsu looked at the stunned boys and stood a little further away.

Some of them were already starting to make fools of themselves.

He found a spot to wait for the teacher to arrive.

But the girl seemed very interested in him, despite him being all alone.

Upon noticing him sitting by the pool by himself, she walked straight over.

She sat down next to him, making the boys nearby green with envy.

"Hey, you're actually wearing swim trunks."

"It's rare to see boys wearing swim trunks."

Kushida Kikyo stared at Kageya Shinjitsu's abdomen with great curiosity.

"You seem to have quite a bit of muscle. You can't tell at all when you're wearing your school uniform. Can I touch them?"

She gestured with her small hands, and seeing that Kageya Shinjitsu did not offer any particular resistance, she reached out to touch him.

"As I thought, it's so hard. That's amazing."

"You were definitely lying to me earlier. You clearly work out all the time. When you have some free time, could you take me to train with you? I'm really curious about how you exercise."

Kushida Kikyo gazed at him with an expression of admiration and expectation, even extending an invitation.

"That's not true. Among the guys, this is just a very average level. Look over there; those guys are the real experts."

Kageya Shinjitsu had originally intended to resist, but noticing the gazes of Ike Kanji and the others in the distance, he decided to show off and let Kushida Kikyo touch him.

As he spoke, he took the opportunity to point toward them, though he was actually pointing at Sudo Ken. Aside from him, there was also that wealthy young master who had walked over wearing nothing but briefs—a very flamboyant and eccentric sight that made many of the girls blush uncontrollably.

"That bastard, is he snitching on us?"

"Is he saying we hit him? And he's even letting little Kushida touch him," Yamauchi Haruki said.

He instinctively felt that Kageya Shinjitsu was bad-mouthing them.

"That jerk, he's talking nonsense! That guy was the one who made me hit my head. I'm going to go stop him from deceiving little Kushida." Hearing this, Ike Kanji bristled with anger.

"If you go over there with your current temper, Kushida-san might just believe his side of the story."

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, on the other hand, remained very calm.

Besides, the other party had indeed already made a move earlier.

And they hadn't been able to beat him.

Chapter 33 Kushida: Boys with big muscles are very attractive to other boys

Ike Kanji, who had been extremely agitated, temporarily gave up after hearing Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's words.
