[The Second Day of School] Kujo Makoto's First Day of School

The second day of school.

After school.

Upon confirming that 100,000 points had been deposited into his account, Kujo went alone to find Class C teacher Sakagami Kazuma to conduct a transaction.

The specific terms of their agreement were as follows:

Kujo Makoto would pay Sakagami 80,000 points regularly at the beginning of each month; in exchange, he requested to be exempted from almost all regular classes while retaining his eligibility for exams.

Simply put, he was using a large sum of points to purchase the privilege of "skipping class."

This was a special request that no student had ever made since the founding of Advanced Nurturing High School.

In response, Sakagami agreed after setting three rigid conditions for Kujo:

First, Kujo Makoto must bring at least 300 class points to Class C within the next year.

Second, Kujo Makoto must not disrupt the normal teaching order during other students' class hours, nor engage in any behavior that affects the students' studies.

Third, Kujo Makoto must not turn off his phone's location services without authorization and must ensure his phone remains reachable 24 hours a day.

If Kujo violated any of the above three points, it would be considered a unilateral breach of contract, the agreement would be automatically terminated, and the points already paid would not be refunded.

At the same time, Sakagami emphasized to Kujo: in the contract signed by the two, he, as the teacher, would hold the final right of interpretation.

Kujo had no objections to this.

Because he simply did not want to waste time in the classroom.

Rather than experiencing a dull student life all over again, Kujo preferred to use more of his free time for physical training.

In this school that prioritized physical prowess, the body was the most important asset.

As for Sakagami, he seemed to think quite highly of Kujo.

Although Kujo was a strange student, Sakagami had already determined that he was special.

This school had never lacked students with talent and status; Sakagami had always believed that as long as a student could fully utilize their strengths, even unconventional behavior was acceptable.

This was his teaching philosophy.

Next, Sakagami introduced Kujo to the noteworthy figures among this year's incoming freshmen.

Each class had several second or third-generation descendants from various families.

Among them, the original protagonist from Kujo's past-life memories, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, was also this type of existence.

However, his name was not mentioned in the list Sakagami introduced.

But having read the original work in his past life, Kujo knew that the other party was a monster.

And he had already confirmed that the other party was indeed present in this year's Class D.

In Kujo's view, if one wanted to survive in this school, once Ayanokoji sensed a threat of expulsion, he would inevitably carry out large-scale destructive actions.

In other words.

If he lost the sense of crisis regarding expulsion, Ayanokoji was just an existence who longed to be an ordinary student.

Class C.

After bidding farewell to Sakagami, Kujo headed straight toward the classroom.

Because before this, he had reached a deal with a student in the same class using points, having the other party wait for him in the classroom.

"80,000 points to skip class, 10,000 points to have me wait for you in this dump of a classroom—you're an interesting guy."

The object of Kujo's transaction was the leader of Class C in the original work, Ryuen Kakeru.

If Kujo were to evaluate it, this year's Advanced Nurturing High School freshmen were essentially a large-scale game of Werewolf.

Under external influence, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka of Class D was forced to contribute to his class from behind the scenes.

And the Ryuen before him was constantly squeezing the living space of other classes, eventually forcing Ayanokoji to reveal the true face he tried to hide.

Looking at the entire story, apart from Horikita Suzune, it was likely only the unruly Ryuen before him who could pique Ayanokoji's interest.

At this moment, the thug sitting with his legs crossed in front of Kujo was that very wolf-dog that hadn't been tamed by anyone yet.

Seeing that his provocation had no effect, Ryuen added fuel to the fire:

"Can't wait to pay your respects just after school started? Or do you want to spar with me? If you can beat me, I might just return your 10,000 points."

In Ryuen's eyes, Kujo was as dangerous as Albert in his class.

Standing at about 1.8 meters tall, the contours of his arms were well-defined, clearly the result of rigorous training.

Ryuen assessed him silently; if it really came to blows, he wouldn't be able to defeat the other party easily.

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Kujo had absolutely no interest in snatching the position of Class C's leader.

"Next time. I have more important things to tell you right now."

Subsequently, Kujo laid out everything regarding class points, the rules for changing classes, and special exams.

Along with this, he also disclosed information about several teachers and upperclassmen in the school.

When it came to the more important points, he would even pick up a piece of chalk and deliberately mark them on the blackboard.

Ryuen initially found Kujo's behavior laughable.

But as he listened, his expression began to change.

By the time Kujo finished explaining all the information he deemed safe to disclose, the atmosphere between the two in the classroom fell into complete silence.

The process of waiting.

Kujo casually found a seat and sat down, then began idly fiddling with the decorations and books on the desk out of boredom.

During this time, Ryuen stared fixedly at Kujo's every move, attempting to find a flaw in the other boy.

Unfortunately, he couldn't see anything.

Kujo's expression remained as gloomy as ever.

It was still that same feeling of indifference toward everything.

It could be said that Kujo was the type of person Ryuen was least capable of dealing with.

After a while.

When he saw Kujo even starting to build a structure out of blocks, the anger in Ryuen's heart could no longer be contained.

So, he asked Kujo:

"What do you want, kid? Do you want to graduate from Class A?"

In Ryuen's view, the reason Kujo told him these things was either to squeeze some points out of him or to form a short-term alliance to charge toward Class A together.

But if the other party cared about points, he wouldn't have spent ten thousand points just to meet him.

Therefore, Ryuen was more inclined to believe that Kujo's goal was cooperation.

But that was not the case.

The reason Kujo told Ryuen these things was not to seek the other's help.

He calculated that once Ryuen knew the information, he would inevitably take the initiative to strike at other classes.

And once Ryuen attacked other classes, all the other classes would view Ryuen as a major threat.

With Ryuen's presence being so prominent, Kujo wouldn't have to worry about accidentally drawing the ire of other classes while he carried out his own actions in the background.

In this school, temporary wins and losses were not important.

After leaving this school, everything would be reshuffled.

The gains and losses within this school were of no real consequence.

What Kujo needed were favors, because favors were far more important than cold, hard points.

After all, whether it was the later expulsion vote exam or the school's atmosphere being completely disrupted by incoming forces, Kujo didn't want to be one of the unlucky ones caught in the middle.

He was just an ordinary Class C student; he really couldn't afford to provoke the young masters and princesses from all sides.

To achieve his goal, Kujo provoked Ryuen:

"The information has been provided to you; do whatever you want with it. I'm just curious, after understanding the essence of this school, is the only thing you know how to do, Ryuen, to use violence to threaten classmates into attending class, and then waylay and rob other classes after school?"

For Kujo, it was a win-win situation regardless of whether Ryuen chose a conservative strategy to retain more class points or an aggressive strategy to attack other classes.

If a conservative approach could keep the class points above 800, then Kujo would be able to smoothly pay Sakagami eighty thousand points every month to maintain his exemption contract.

And if Ryuen chose to actively attack other classes, then Kujo would immediately choose to cooperate with the targeted class to swindle even more personal points.

So, no matter what choice Ryuen made, the initiative remained with Kujo.

Ryuen, naturally, could also perceive that Kujo intended to use him as cannon fodder, so he retorted with a mocking sneer:

"So you told me all this just to make me your cannon fodder while you hide in the back like a coward?"

Faced with such a remark, Kujo sighed.

In his eyes, the current Ryuen hadn't even fully integrated his own class, and clearly didn't have the qualifications to compete with Ayanokoji.

Let alone meeting the expectations he held in his heart.

Thus, Kujo advised:

"A piece of advice. If you really want to stir up trouble with a class, you might as well make Class B your primary target. In this school this year, Class D of the first year is the most dangerous existence."

Advice? Who do you think you are?

Heh.

Facing Kujo, who had suddenly adopted a preachy attitude, Ryuen scoffed:

"You haven't even tasted a woman yet, have you? Which girl in Class D have you taken a fancy to?"

Upon hearing this, Kujo didn't bother responding to Ryuen anymore; he turned around and chose to leave the classroom.

He never had any intention of getting along with Ryuen from the very beginning.

Therefore, once his goal of probing was achieved, Kujo decided there was no need to remain in the class, let alone pay any further attention to the other party.

In fact, Ryuen Kakeru did not entirely believe what Kujo had said.

However, he had a way to verify the truthfulness of the information.

That was to spread all of these tall tales far and wide.

If they were merely rumors, the school would naturally step in to clarify.

And if these were truths the school wanted to hide, the administration would stop him from spreading any further information.

Ryuen even planned to mix in some misleading intelligence, which would serve perfectly to test the current first-year students.

Kujo Makoto was truly an interesting guy.

The next three years didn't look like they would be boring at all.

Ryuen secretly looked forward to it in his heart.

The next day.

Hundreds of anonymous posts inexplicably appeared on the school's internal student social media platform.

[Only those who graduate from Class A can enjoy the benefits of guaranteed employment.]

[If even a single person drops out of the class, it becomes impossible to promote to Class A.]

[Every class in this school has a fixed amount of class points, and A, B, C, and D are ranked based on the total points each class holds.]
