In Classroom of the Elite, My Future Daughter Provides Assists

I had originally thought that the composition of my class was different from the past, even featuring two bosses, but over this past month, neither of those two bosses seems to have accomplished anything.

One of them, Koenji Rokusuke, has simply let himself go and is enjoying life; however, given his level of intelligence, he should have been able to grasp the true nature of this school. Yet, he seems to have offered no warnings to the class, nor has he taken any action whatsoever.

He even caused the class to lose 100 points all by himself during the Behavioral Standards Exam.

"..."

As for the other boss, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, he currently sits next to Horikita Suzune, but his presence is unremarkable, and he has maintained a calm expression until now.

Teacher Chabashira checked his point balance: out of the 100,000 points, he still has 80,000 remaining.

In other words, he only spent 20,000 points last month.

For a student, this is an extremely difficult feat, especially considering this is a new student who just enrolled and needed to purchase daily necessities. This means Ayanokoji actually discovered the school's relief system—the fact that they provide some expiring, cheap items for free.

So, he chose to rely on those things.

He even ate the unpalatable free meals.

But he, too, did nothing and offered no warnings.

Thus, Teacher Chabashira had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and chose Horikita Suzune.

The younger sister of the Student Council President. She even risked punishment to leak information to her, but unfortunately, the leaked information yielded no return.

Horikita failed.

Otherwise, the class would not have ended up in this situation. It can be said that this result is something Horikita is absolutely incapable of salvaging.

"You are truly a bunch of fools!"

Finally, looking at the faces of the students below, Teacher Chabashira uttered words that a teacher should not say.

Over this past month, she never dragged out her classes, asked very few questions, never said anything overly harsh, and never targeted anyone individually.

Yet now.

She has insulted everyone.

But all of them are fools? On what grounds!

Teacher Chabashira said coldly, "In the past month, you have been late or absent over 108 times, and you have chatted privately or played with your phones during class 631 times. In just one month, you have really been as reckless as can be!"

"It is true that being selected to join this school is quite extraordinary."

"But have you ever stopped to think seriously? Is there really such a thing as a free lunch in this world?"

"The tuition is free."

"The school also provides living expenses, but the amount provided depends on your ability to earn it."

"Using the class as a unit, the school will use your performance and the results of the monthly special exams as evaluation criteria. We call this standard the Class Evaluation Points."

"The class ranking is determined solely by the number of these Class Evaluation Points. Only by graduating as Class A can you receive the rewards promised by the school. Do not say that the school has treated you unfairly."

"At the time of enrollment, every class starts with 1,000 Class Evaluation Points, and the living expenses distributed to you are based on this, multiplied by 100, and then accumulated. The same applies to next month, but you... in this short month, you have managed to have all your points deducted. Therefore."

"The Private Points distributed to you this month will be 0."

The teacher's voice was very soft when she reached zero, yet it was startling.

Then, a chill began to run down their spines.

"Does that mean we will be penniless from now on?"

"This... what is this... we were never, never told about this."

Isn't this going to be the death of them?

Take Yamauchi and Ike, for example; they only had double digits left, which means they won't have any living expenses this month!

Teacher Chabashira had already moved from disappointment to despair.

She had originally held high hopes for them, but all she received in return was despair.

Because she had never heard of any class ending their first month with zero points. This is a record-breaking event in this school.

It has broken the bottom limit for Class D.

"Don't tell me you thought that just because you are high school students, you could spend 100,000 points every month? If so, you still don't know this school. This school is truly meritocratic. Why didn't you investigate? Why did you continue to degenerate? I told you on the first day of school that this school evaluates students based on ability, which means..."

As Teacher Chabashira spoke, her gaze shifted toward Horikita.

Horikita's face turned pale.

She could be certain that the school would not provide students with unlimited living expenses, and the teacher's explanation now verified this, while also confirming that the school distributes resources based on merit.

If the Class Evaluation Points are high, not only can the class ranking change and climb, but by maintaining the position of Class A at graduation, they can obtain everything the school promised.

However.

"Then, Teacher, what are the current Class Evaluation Points for the four classes?" Horikita stood up and asked.

"That is a good question."

Teacher Chabashira nodded, but Horikita-san, what is the point of being nervous now?

You can no longer handle this situation.

Unless.

Chabashira Sae looked toward the two bosses in the class.

ps: Today's update is here, you guys know what I'm going to say, right?

ps: Time to pay the grain tax, brothers!

Chapter 049 Class A Homeroom Teacher: I am truly impressed by you bunch of idiots! Two-in-one!

No class had ever had their 1,000 class evaluation points deducted to zero in the very first month.

Even in her own year, they had 440 class evaluation points left after the first month, which was considered an excellent performance. Because usually, Class 1-D only had 200 points left by the end of the first month.

That was why their class had seized the opportunity back then; they weren't eliminated in the first month, but were able to grasp chances in the special exams every month thereafter and climb their way up.

But with Class 1-D's hellish start right now, Horikita Suzune definitely couldn't handle it.

However.

Unfortunately.

Chabashira Sae discovered that whether she looked at Koenji or Ayanokoji, neither of them reacted to this.

But.

Chabashira Sae also noticed that the expression of Classmate Kushida, who was sitting in the front row, seemed to have changed slightly.

She seemed a bit nervous.

In reality, she was indeed nervous.

Because what was Teacher Chabashira saying right now? Class rankings fluctuate, they have to climb up, living expenses are tied to class evaluation points, and there will be special exams every month from now on?

Competing with other classes as a unit.

But.

It felt like she had betrayed the class before it had even begun.

That's right.

What Classmate Kushida was thinking about right now were the three sets of data she had given to Shirogane Miyuki, Classmate Shiina, and Horikita Suzune.

Giving away the information on Class A and Class B was one thing; after all, they were other classes. But that guy Horikita had asked her for help with information on their own class, and as a result, Horikita had taken the class's own data to trade with Shirogane and the others.

So, did that mean she, um... was Horikita Suzune actually the traitor of the class?

And upon thinking of this, Classmate Kushida suddenly calmed down a little.

"..." Chabashira Sae.

Chabashira Sae, who was keeping an eye on Kushida, found that the change in Kushida's emotions seemed very strange.

However, Chabashira Sae still responded to Horikita's request.

"The current evaluation points for the four classes are as follows."

Teacher Chabashira wrote the scores of the four classes on the blackboard: Class A had 924 points, Class B had 560 points, Class C had 735 points, and Class D... 0 points.

"I am truly impressed by you all for managing to deduct all your points within a single month."

"So, you will have no living expenses this month."

"Because every class starts with a base of 1,000 points, which accumulates from the start of the school year. This means that if you can manage not to lose any points, you can receive 100,000 Private Points in living expenses every month. But if you lose 500 points at the start, you only get 50,000 next month, and if you continue to lose points the following month, you'll get even less than 50,000."

"Therefore, class evaluation points are very important and cannot be deducted carelessly."

"However, Class 1-D, as of May 1st, has been deducted down to 0."

"And you are the most... absurd and worst class since the school was founded," Chabashira Sae said as if delivering a verdict.

Many students' faces began to turn pale, and murmurs of "How could this be?" could be heard.

Then, Chabashira Sae continued, "According to tradition, freshmen undergo an exam on behavioral standards during their first month. It's not meant to be difficult for you; it's just to assess whether you are qualified high school students."

"Whether it's being late, leaving early, playing on your phone in class, fighting, uncivilized behavior, etc., these are all points for deduction."

Uh.

At this, the students below, who were still stunned by the sudden news that they had no living expenses this month and that their 1,000 class evaluation points had been wiped out, were left dumbfounded.

"Does that mean our class points were all deducted just for assessing whether we were qualified students?" At this moment, a girl with a golden ponytail stood up and asked.

The girl was quite cute; she was the leader of the Gal Clique, a group of girls in the class—Classmate Karuizawa Kei.

And her saying this reflected the questions of a portion of the students.

Because it shouldn't have been that easy to lose all those points. Or rather, how could it be possible that they lost all 1,000 points just because they couldn't act like qualified students? After all, the other classes hadn't lost all theirs.

"The assessment criteria for the other classes must be different from ours, right? Because how else could they still have so many points?"

Another student from Class 1-D asked.

It was a girl with short hair who usually hung out with Karuizawa, named Shinohara Satsuki.

Compared to Horikita, Teacher Chabashira had actually also held expectations for Hirata Yosuke. Hirata's data profile was excellent, and he was outstanding in every aspect. However, Hirata's middle school records contained a very dark history, which was the reason he had been assigned to Class D. At first, she thought Hirata was a problem student, but upon arriving at the school, he treated the students around him with extreme kindness, as if he were trying to make a fresh start.

Therefore, at the time, Teacher Chabashira had actually valued Hirata more than Horikita before making her choice.

However, Hirata failed to shoulder the banner of Class D. Throughout this month, he had merely been smoothing over the interpersonal relationships among the students.

"The school's evaluation standards are consistent."

"While you were taking the exam, the other classes were taking it as well. The test questions were identical, so there was no unfairness or cheating," Teacher Chabashira said.

In reality, she was lying.

Because after the second week ended, she had sought out Horikita privately and revealed information that would allow Horikita to investigate the true nature of the school. In other words, Class D had actually attempted to cheat compared to the other classes, but the attempt was unsuccessful because Horikita failed to uncover the school's true nature.

Thus, Teacher Chabashira's disclosure of information at the time had been in vain.

"..." Chabashira.

"Then, does the fact that the other classes had so many fewer points deducted mean—" Hirata finally stood up. "Does it mean the other classes actually went to investigate the information and then responded seriously?"

"That is basically the meaning. It is also the gap between you and the other classes," Teacher Chabashira said. "Take the original Class C, for example. After they obtained the information, they immediately began to take countermeasures. To prevent students from playing on their phones during class, the first thing every student does upon arriving at the classroom is to hand over their phone. They only get their phones back during lunch break and after school."

Uh.

Hirata instantly felt immense pressure.

If he couldn't accept Teacher Chabashira calling them trash just a moment ago, then now... if the other three classes were able to obtain information in advance and respond seriously, then their class was indeed... somewhat problematic.

"Teacher Chabashira." At this moment, Horikita began to ask a question. "According to what you said, only Class A can receive the rewards advertised by the school. Does that mean Class A is exceptionally important?"

"Yes," Teacher Chabashira said. "Furthermore, when you graduate in three years, only students who graduate from Class A will be recognized by the school, while students from Classes B, C, and D will graduate under the names of other second-rate high schools."

"In other words, if you do not graduate from Class A, none of you will receive a diploma from Ikusei High School," Teacher Chabashira said.

"How could this be!" XN

A chorus of wails erupted from the students below.
