In Classroom of the Elite, My Future Daughter Provides Assists

"How foolish." Sakayanagi Arisu spoke as if she were delivering a critique, disparaging the Katsuragi Faction.

"..." Classmate Shirogane did not respond.

He did not know the situation of the students in Sakayanagi Class, but from the intelligence he had gathered so far, he knew that two factions had emerged in Class A.

If Classmate Sakayanagi could not fully rule Class A, then the combat power of Class A could not reach its peak.

This was a good thing for Class C.

Furthermore.

Sakayanagi seemed to look down on the Katsuragi Faction.

If one were to consider the circumstances behind the birth of the Katsuragi Faction, they desired stability, which was predicated on the fact that Class A's class evaluation points were far ahead of the other classes.

They simply wanted to maintain that advantage steadily until graduation.

And the person who caused this result... was likely Sakayanagi Arisu herself.

Because her performance was so outstanding, she might have known the true nature of this school earlier than any previous Class A, allowing them to gain an advantage during the Behavioral Standards Exam in the first month, which is customary for freshmen, and secure scores that previous Class A freshmen could never obtain.

Therefore, they were able to pull away from the other clueless classes in the very first month.

As a result, a portion of the students in Class A wanted to protect this advantage, so they joined the side of the steady Classmate Katsuragi, forming the Katsuragi Faction.

But Sakayanagi called them idiots.

In other words, had the Katsuragi Faction not yet realized that the points for Class C had already stabilized?

So, the scene that the Katsuragi Faction of Class A hoped to see—other classes being left far behind—might not come to pass.

ps: Fourth update!

Chapter 037: Classmate Sakayanagi, is your identity...

The foundation of the Katsuragi Faction's establishment lay in Class A pulling away from the other classes.

But that was merely a hypothetical for the students of the Katsuragi Faction.

Perhaps after this month ends, he could give them a shock.

However.

Shirogane watched Classmate Sakayanagi; although she was talking about information regarding the Katsuragi Faction, she did not have a troubled expression.

This meant she did not consider the Katsuragi Faction to be a rival.

Or perhaps the current formation of the Katsuragi Faction... was just a way to filter out the fools in the class.

"..."

Shirogane felt it was better not to overanalyze what the boss was thinking.

"Speaking of which, Classmate Sakayanagi, your points seem to be more than those of the average student," Shirogane said.

He had wanted to say this back when they were in the student council; at that time, Sakayanagi Arisu wanted to print the rosters for all three grades, which would cost 300,000 points. She didn't agree to it, but she still took out 100,000 points to print the roster for the first-year students.

In other words, she couldn't afford 300,000, but she could still cough up 100,000.

"My initial points are the same as every other student," Sakayanagi Arisu said. "It is rather impolite of you to ask such a thing."

Impolite, was it?

Shirogane felt that this topic had stepped on a landmine for Classmate Sakayanagi.

This indicated that she actually placed great importance on the topic of fairness.

Could it be understood, then, that she actually possessed a situation where she could receive points that were not treated fairly and were different from everyone else's?

Her health was poor, so the school provided a familiar nurse, and because her health was poor and the school was a closed environment, it would be reasonable to give her more points to hire others to assist her.

But Shirogane felt this line of thinking was wrong.

Because if it were a special favor granted by the school, based on his understanding of Classmate Sakayanagi, she would not refuse it. Nor would she feel that this way of asking was impolite.

Therefore.

Perhaps there was some other reason. There was another reason that allowed Sakayanagi Arisu to receive special treatment and obtain more points, but she herself resisted this fact.

She wanted fairness. Or rather, fairness was very important to her.

"..." Shirogane.

Shirogane thought of one thing: he had learned from the Narration System that there was a genius boss in Class D named Koenji Rokusuke, who was the heir to a conglomerate, yet he had come to this school.

And Classmate Koenji was assigned to the class evaluated as the worst, Class D... clearly, he hadn't used any backdoors due to his status as the son of a conglomerate.

So, this school should not easily grant special treatment based on status.

Therefore, regarding Classmate Sakayanagi, if she denied receiving special treatment, could it be that some relative or another was employed at this school and held a position of power? If so, she would need to consider not just herself, but the other person as well. Sakayanagi could not receive special treatment because once she did, the other person would be suspected of favoritism.

And the person capable of such favoritism likely held a high position.

"Classmate Shirogane, what are you thinking about?" Classmate Sakayanagi noticed that Shirogane seemed to be dazed.

"I was wondering if you have any family members working at this school, and if they hold a high position," Shirogane said subconsciously.

"..." Sakayanagi.

"..." Arisu.

The atmosphere seemed to fall silent for 2.2 seconds, and Classmate Sakayanagi's lips parted slightly, as if she were somewhat surprised.

However, she quickly composed herself.

"Classmate Shirogane really is an interesting person," Sakayanagi said, feigning ease. "Let me answer your previous question first."

"The points I obtained were voluntarily contributed by the students in my class," Sakayanagi Arisu said. "The students who support me account for 22 spots. Each student contributes a corresponding share according to their own ability."

"Although a significant amount of points were spent to acquire the essence of this school, they spontaneously joined school clubs, and club members can receive a subsidy of points every month."

In other words, the students of Class A not only contributed a portion of the 100,000 points they received upon enrollment to Sakayanagi, but then... they also joined clubs to obtain subsidies.

Once they got the money, they could continue to contribute.

"..."

Then the students in your class are truly hardworking.

If participating in clubs can earn subsidies, does that mean joining the student council can also earn subsidies?

After learning the true nature of this school and arranging for Classmate Ryuen to consolidate the class, Classmate Shirogane had been turning a deaf ear to everything outside the window and focusing solely on his studies during this time.

He discovered that there were quite a few textbooks and materials in the school library, and even past versions were available.

This was a rather strange situation.

Because a typical library wouldn't constantly adopt and update so many versions of textbooks; they would likely just collect the ancient versions.

But the textbooks included every version from ten years ago to the present.

Although the school was wealthy, Shirogane didn't think such a school would waste money in this area, so could it be understood that these different versions of textbooks were actually useful?

In other words, perhaps future special exams might make use of these textbooks.

Special exams were held once a month, so rather than being caught off guard later when these textbooks were mentioned, it was better to be prepared now.

Therefore, he was currently studying the textbooks he had received while also preparing to study other versions of the textbooks. In terms of the practical value of knowledge, the content of past textbooks was often more detailed, as many things had been deleted or changed in the new versions.

So, there was no harm in studying the old versions.

Shirogane's schedule was basically just studying—studying what he was currently learning, studying what was coming up in the textbooks, and then studying several previous versions of the textbooks.

But looking at it now, although there was no option for a part-time job in the school, joining a club... no, the student council had become necessary.

So, let the one-month observation period end quickly.

Classmate Shirogane wanted to obtain preferential treatment.

[Classmate Sakayanagi Arisu's mood seems to have become a bit tense. Are you not planning to dig deeper?]

[Originally, she only thought of you as a hardworking ordinary person, a striver. She is a genius, and she actually doesn't have much interest in ordinary people.]

[But just now, you stepped on her landmine. You seem to have piqued her interest.]

[Next, she might arrange for students to follow you for a few days.]

"..." Shirogane.

The Narration System's analytical ability was quite good, and it also knew some future intelligence.

At the same time, it seemed to be extremely adept at analyzing Classmate Sakayanagi's mood.

It was just that the narration was also a bit malicious, often making suggestions like wanting to make Classmate Sakayanagi cry, or taking away her cane, or other bullying remarks.

It was as if it held some kind of grudge against Classmate Sakayanagi.

But Classmate Sakayanagi, is your way of dealing with people who step on your landmines to directly stalk them and find their weaknesses?

Or is there something else you want to do?

Since Classmate Sakayanagi was still here, Shirogane wanted to clear the air; after all, there was no reason for both sides to be at war right now.

However.

Classmate Shirogane gazed at Classmate Sakayanagi.

Classmate Sakayanagi was very cute, her skin snow-white and translucent with a sickly pallor, looking pitiful enough to stir one's heart and evoke affection.

Everyone knew this, so there was no need to say it.

?

And Classmate Sakayanagi seemed to be looking at Classmate Shirogane with confusion.

She felt that the other party was looking at her, but also as if he wasn't looking at her.

And Shirogane did indeed have an idea right now.

That was, he had stepped on Classmate Sakayanagi's landmine, and Classmate Sakayanagi would arrange for students to follow him.

So, if he caught this stalker, could he obtain some information? Could he make the other party identify the student who took those photos? After all, stalking people was not something that could be openly discussed.

And so.

Classmate Shirogane, with his vigilance fully activated, intercepted the person following him that very night.

However, the other party was not from Class A, but a girl from... Class D.

ps: Fifth update!

Promoting a friend's book:

Synopsis: My name is Ivan, a transmigrator, male, combat power is trash, my talent is comedy, yet the mission requires me to kill a Demon King who is practically immortal. So...

"My grandmaster Serie asked me, what is magic? I answered that it is a tool for comedy."

"And I am a man determined to make the whole world laugh. Therefore, I established the Funny Kingdom, founded the Funny Cult, organized the Funny Army, unified the power of all human races, united them to study magic, transformed it into productivity to improve lives, built various infrastructure, developed magical weapons to increase military strength, and finally drove the demons back to the Demon Realm--"

"Making everyone who had been oppressed by the demons laugh again! This is the comedy path of me, the Hero of Laughter!!"

Chapter 038: Horikita-go Sorties, Horikita-go Crashes!

Classmate Shirogane met Sakayanagi Arisu at noon, and then began to heighten his vigilance that evening.

As a result, while going to the library to borrow and return books, he discovered someone was tailing him.

Initially, he only vaguely felt that someone was following him when he walked out of the dormitory building.

Classmate Shirogane did not counterattack immediately; after all, the other party hadn't done anything yet, so he had to catch them in the act.

Yes.

Classmate Shirogane prepared to catch this stalker arranged by Classmate Sakayanagi.

He could have contacted Classmate Kushida from Class D and verified information about Class A students through her intelligence network, but looking at it now, students from other classes are not as useful as those from his own.

He could let Class A students point out other Class A students themselves.

Because they are students in the same class, they would naturally know more details.

However, although some students in Class A belong to the Katsuragi Faction, those who choose the Sakayanagi Faction are relatively smarter. So, would this person arranged by Sakayanagi surrender so easily?

The probability of the other party surrendering voluntarily is very low, but the probability of them selling out information on students from the Katsuragi Faction is very high, and they might even fill in the parts that Classmate Shirogane hadn't collected yet.

This is the disadvantage of division between classes.
