In Classroom of the Elite, My Future Daughter Provides Assists

Classmate Shiina looks excellent, yet she was assigned to Class C.

To think she used the phrasing "was assigned to."

But that implies the students in Class C and Class D were likely the ones rejected by Class A and Class B, filtered out according to some comprehensive evaluation system.

Does that mean students who appear excellent might have some flaws?

That must be why Classmate Shiina was assigned to Class C.

As for why Shirogane was assigned to Class C, he understood it himself.

Although his academic ability seems decent, and he has the merits of being good at cooking and housework, he also has quite a few flaws.

He cannot swim.

He cannot sew.

His physical fitness is fine, but his athletic skills are poor; he is hopeless at basketball, tennis, or volleyball.

He is tone-deaf when singing and was even asked to just mouth the words without making a sound during a singing competition.

He cannot play the guitar, nor can he dance.

He is afraid of bugs and hates disgusting things.

"..." Hmm.

Thinking back on it, aren't these all flaws? It's a good thing he wasn't assigned to Class D.

And as he thought this.

"Classmate Shirogane."

Shirogane felt his sleeve being tugged, and judging by the voice, it was Classmate Shiina who had pulled him.

However, Classmate Shiina's gaze was fixed on a direction ahead.

Shirogane looked over as well, and then he understood why Classmate Shiina had pulled him.

Because earlier, he had been asking Classmate Shiina if she had seen a silver-haired girl who had difficulty moving and had to use a cane.

And now, he saw her.

However, Classmate Sakayanagi was not alone.

Following Shiina Hiyori's gaze, Shirogane immediately spotted the frail-looking Classmate Sakayanagi Arisu in the crowd.

Although she suffered from a congenital heart condition and was forced to use a cane to move around.

But.

Even though the description sounded frail and pitiable, seeing her in person felt like anything but that.

Classmate Sakayanagi held her cane in her left hand; her figure was petite and slender, her skin was translucent and fair, and her silver hair had a high-quality luster, yet the impression she gave was not one of frailty, but of confidence and arrogance.

That's right.

The aura Classmate Sakayanagi was projecting right now was one of confidence and arrogance.

She walked in front, followed by five or six students who surrounded her like stars around the moon, making her the center of attention.

When she walked forward, they walked forward, and when she stopped, the others stopped as well.

It was as if she were the leader of these students.

A few of the students were carrying shopping bags, seemingly accompanying the girl on her errands.

It was a truly surprising scene.

"..." Shirogane.

Classmate Shirogane had originally been worried that Classmate Sakayanagi was physically weak and that it would be very difficult for her to suddenly try to be independent.

He even thought she might encounter difficulties with shopping and purchasing necessities as a new student.

As it turned out, he seemed to have worried for nothing.

Classmate Sakayanagi had plenty of helpers by her side.

However, these helpers didn't look like they were helping out of sympathy because they saw Classmate Sakayanagi struggling; it looked more like they were following her lead.

In other words, had Classmate Sakayanagi already taken control of a portion of the students in her class?

Classmate Shirogane recalled what Sakayanagi Arisu had said in the morning when the two of them were heading from the infirmary to the gymnasium.

[Although I am also just a new student, I do not believe this school is the same as an ordinary school in the outside world.]

[A school supported and promoted by the government, with a 100% employment and university advancement rate, free tuition, and provided living expenses—conditions like these are like a pie falling from the sky.]

[However, the things that are free are often the most expensive. Therefore, I fear this school has some unusual mechanisms.]

Since Classmate Sakayanagi now enjoyed such treatment, it was clear she had already gained the recognition of her classmates.

And with her classmates taking her as their leader, it was truly a case of meritocracy.

"I suddenly feel that the promotion model for our grade seems even more difficult," Shirogane said.

"Eh?" Classmate Shiina looked puzzled.

She naturally didn't know that although Classmate Sakayanagi up ahead was cute and adorable, Classmate Shirogane had already categorized her as an SSS-level dangerous individual.

Classmate Sakayanagi had revealed her name, and her class was Class A of the first year.

In other words, if one wanted to obtain the rewards promised by the school, they would have to climb to Class A and defeat Classmate Sakayanagi.

According to information leaked by upperclassmen, in previous years, rising through the ranks was difficult, and now with the addition of Sakayanagi Arisu, it was even harder.

Because it was as if the opposing class had drawn an SSR in a lottery.

And if all the students in Class A were like Classmate Sakayanagi, one could imagine that it would be basically impossible for Class C to climb up.

The gap in skill levels was too vast.

However, one could be slightly relieved, because if all the students in Class A were like Classmate Sakayanagi, there wouldn't be five or six students surrounding her right now.

This meant that these students acknowledged Classmate Sakayanagi.

They acknowledged that Sakayanagi's intellect was superior to theirs.

Therefore, not all students in Class A were that terrifying.

But.

"Will a situation ever arise in our class where the students acknowledge a single person?" Shirogane asked.

"Acknowledge? Do you mean like being a member of the class and following the leader's orders?" Hiyori said, but she quickly gave a negative answer. "I don't think so. Even if a student performs very well, I think the classmates will listen, but they won't obey."

In other words, this was a quality issue with the students in Class C.

They might be brainless, stubborn, and refuse to listen to advice.

It seemed that Classmate Ryuen might be indispensable for the time being. His violent methods were needed to consolidate the class. Otherwise, let alone challenging Class A, they might not even be able to break through to Class B, the level above Class C.

Classmate Shirogane thought to himself.

"I was worried before that Classmate Sakayanagi might be in poor health and need help, but looking at it now, it seems my worry was unnecessary," Shirogane said. "Let's go finish what we need to do."

So, were they parting ways here?

"Where are you planning to go later, Classmate Shirogane?" Classmate Shiina asked.

"I'm planning to head to the electronics store first to buy a USB flash drive," Shirogane revealed his plan.

Buying a USB drive—there was nothing much to say about that; it was to keep a backup of the video of Classmate Ryuen hitting people.

It would serve as a weapon to hold over him.

Hiyori nodded.

"I will send the video to your phone," Classmate Shiina said.

At the same time, Hiyori also decided to delete the recording from her phone.

Because as things stood, this video could be used to control Classmate Ryuen.

However, since Classmate Ryuen was a student in their class, if the video of him fighting were exposed, the point deductions and punishments wouldn't just affect Ryuen himself; they would also implicate the entire class.

So, this was a double-edged sword.

Therefore, if the phone were accidentally lost and the video leaked, it would indeed be a very serious matter.

Thus, Classmate Shirogane and Classmate Shiina parted ways at the intersection.

Shirogane prepared to head toward the electronics store ahead, while Classmate Shiina went back to the supermarket first. She had already picked out half of her items and now had to go back to see if the staff had pushed her shopping cart away.

"Classmate Sakayanagi?" The accompanying students noticed that Classmate Sakayanagi's gaze seemed to be directed elsewhere.

"It's nothing," Sakayanagi Arisu maintained her smile.

"Although today is just the first day of school, if my guess is correct, then obtaining information about other classes becomes especially important."

"The students who just passed by were from Class C, right?" Sakayanagi said.

Oh!

So that was it!

"Understood."

A student immediately agreed.

She had noticed that two students had just emerged from a corner, so they would obtain information from those two students who had just passed by.

But those two students had split up.

Should they chase the boy or the girl?

Better to follow the girl.

With that, this student moved quickly.

This left one fewer person in the group, but the atmosphere of being surrounded like stars around the moon remained unchanged.

And Classmate Sakayanagi, as if nothing had happened, continued to hold her cane and walk forward.

As a new student, even she had a few items that needed to be purchased.

Chapter 014: A Strange Girl!

After parting ways with Classmate Shiina, Classmate Shirogane headed straight for the electronics store.

The level of support the school provided to its students was evident, as the school had opened three electronics stores just in this shopping street alone.

The reason he said they were opened by the school was based on Shirogane's own estimation.

Calculating based on 160 students per grade, the total number of students across all three grades would only be 480. Including the faculty and staff, and adding the employees of the shopping street, the entire school population was likely just over two thousand people.
