He really shouldn't have acted like he knew that idiot Zaimokuza!
Hachiman Hikigaya suddenly wanted to cover his face, and even more, he wanted to complain—if anyone could become rich, who wouldn't want to? The question was how to become rich!?
Saying that in a situation like this was like being asked what career he wanted in the future and answering, "A rich person." It was utterly meaningless, even less meaningful than his "househusband" answer...
At the very least, he knew what he could do. What the other guy said sounded like a goal, but in reality, it was no different from a child's babbling. So was Zaimokuza really a high school student?
People wouldn't mistake Hachiman Hikigaya for being the same kind of person as Zaimokuza, would they?

"What ambition..." Just as the withdrawn young man was inwardly filled with grief and indignation, Sogo Doma gave them a thumbs-up. "Just as expected of General Zaimokuza. Actually, I once had the same idea as you—I wanted to become rich too..."
"Huh?" That encouragement instead left Zaimokuza at a loss. "Really?"
"Of course it's true..." Sogo Doma took over again, nodding as he spoke. "Until I later discovered that my family was especially wealthy..."
Zaimokuza: "..."

Why did people who were born at the top of the world even exist?
"That's enough..." Shizuka Hiratsuka's mouth twitched as well.
"Oh, right..." But the moment she spoke, Sogo Doma said, "If you want to own this car, being rich isn't enough."
Hachiman Hikigaya: "..."
True enough, this already
