Hōsen: I Haven't Lost Yet! Ryūen: Idiot! (Continued)
Among them, 40 cards contain Lead Card (which doubles the initial resource points obtained).
There are 30 bonus Bonus Card available (double the points earned).
Two people have Halving Card (the penalty is halved if you are punished).
There are 38 people with Hitchhike Card (betting on a certain group before the exam; if that group gets Private Points, you can get half of the points that group gets).
There are 37 people with Insurance Card (resting for one day due to feeling unwell).
There are 10 Reinforcement Card (team size +1).
There is one Invalid Card (which can offset one penalty deduction of Private Points).
There are 2 Trial Card (which grant 1.5 times the class evaluation score).
However, all Hachiman wants are the first-year students' Invalid Card, the Lead Card (Sakayanagi needs), the Bonus Card, and the Hitchhike Card.
As for the second year, Hachiman wants two Trial Cards, one of which is in the hands of his old acquaintance, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.
The other one is with a Sanada from Class A.
Then there's another one in Class D, held by Ryuen.
So the Trial Card for the joint Class D and Class A were guaranteed.
Hachiman had 30 Bonus Card for the second-year students he was interested in, but only 25 Hitchhike Card.
As for the third grade, he hasn't arranged for Kushida to do it yet.
Because the cards from third graders don't need to be counted.
While Hachiman was taking notes of the statistical results sent by Kushida in his notebook, he noticed a message popping up on his phone.
It was posted about ten minutes ago.
However, he only read Kushida posted and didn't follow it.
And I'm only seeing it now.
[Can we meet tonight?] by Asahina Kokoro.
"..." Hachiman.
Asahina-senpai, despite the arrival of the new semester, has become a third-year student.
In other words, the next year will be their final year at school, and also a crucial year.
As a member of the Student Council, it was Hachiman who wrote the class evaluation scores for the third grade at the beginning of this month.
Therefore, he is very clear about the current situation in the third grade.
Third-year Class A, 1646 points
Third-year Class B, 1344 points
Third-year Class C, 740 points
634 points in Third-year Class D
Just looking at the numbers makes me realize how much pressure I'm under.
Asahina-senpai is in Third-year Class A, but Class A doesn't have much of an advantage, especially since their class's strong student, Nagumo, dropped out.
In the past, Nagumo had expelled those who opposed him from school in order to maintain his rule.
The most extreme case of students dropping out of school was one of their own classmates.
So now that Nagumo has left, the weaknesses of Third-year Class A have immediately become apparent.
In just the first month of the Special Exam, he was caught up by 100 points.
They also have at least 10 Special Exam.
So, is it really possible to hold out?
Hachiman saw the time of the message sent by Asahina-senpai: 8:02 PM.
In other words, less than two minutes after the item card was refreshed on the OAA System, she sent a message asking for help.
Hachiman thought she would be more patient.
"Sorry, I was taking a shower just now and I only just saw the message." Hachiman Hikigaya started sending messages.
"It's too late, but about this exam..."
"There are some things I'd like to ask you for a favor."
"At the same time, you won't work for free; you'll receive appropriate compensation."
"And."
Hachiman continued sending messages.
"I have already made arrangements for the first and second place groups in this exam."
In other words, if anyone else wants to compete, the only option is third place.
The third-ranked class received a score of 150.
If you team up, the points will be split equally, and if you want to score more points, you need to get Trial Card.
So Asahina needs to do is take the Trial Card away, or at least prevent it from falling into the hands of dangerous people.
Of course, this is just an idea.
So, Hachiman asked Asahina-senpai for a favor: to compile a list of the third-year students' item cards.
The third grade also has the 0AA system. Although they didn't need to use it in the last exam, this time they had no choice but to adapt to it.
8:30 p. m.
Although Hachiman told Asahina that it was too late to meet, he still went out on his own.
The destination was a stadium.
There are no cameras here.
Certainly.
This is also because it can directly accommodate a class of students.
As we approached the stadium, we could hear people talking inside.
"Hōsen, why do we have to gather here at this time?"
"And then you have to bring your tablet."
"And now, about ten minutes have passed," a student said.
"I didn't want to come here at all." That was Hōsen's reply.
But very quickly.
"Shut up, all of you!"
"Someone will be coming soon!" Hōsen said.
"Hōsen, I think our class should take this exam very seriously," came Nanase's voice.
And at this time.
Hachiman walked into the gymnasium.
The students around him immediately turned to look at him.
"Second-year student..."
"Vice President of the Student Council!"
"But how should I put it..."
Someone recognized Hachiman.
Hachiman is not currently wearing the armband that Sakayanagi Arisu made him wear as the Vice President.
However, since the face doesn't change, he was still recognized even though he wasn't wearing glasses.
It just feels really strange.
Because it's like being a bad person.
"I am here because I made a promise with Hōsen, and now I am fulfilling that promise," Hachiman said.
"And now."
Hachiman took a small bag out of his pocket.
The bag contained a stack of point cards.
Two students had seen this point card before, back in Ryuen's class in the Second Year Class D. Ryuen month, Ryuen tried to trick them into forming a team with the point card, but they refused because they were controlled by Hōsen.
However, I learned about the existence of point cards.
"This time, Hōsen sold the command of your class's exam preparation to me for four million yen," Hachiman said.
"Inside are 40 anonymous point cards, each containing 100,000 Private Points."
"This is the living allowance that Hōsen managed to get for you."
"He feels guilty about lowering the class evaluation score to 0 last month. And you guys haven't received any living expenses this month either," Hachiman Hikigaya said.
"Hōsen?" Hearing Hachiman Hikigaya's words, the students of First-year Class D looked at him with some confusion.
Because.
Is this true?
Hōsen actually felt guilty after finishing all the points?
Did they even bring them living expenses?
"..." Hōsen.
Grass!
Hōsen discovered that he was being watched by a group of people, and that Hachiman Hikigaya had even more of a twisted sense of humor by making him act as if he felt guilty.
"Hachiman Hikigaya."
But Nanase does have a brain. "You mean, Hōsen- kun gave you command of this Uninhabited Island Exam?"
"Yes," Hachiman said. "I will be in charge of your operations during this exam."
"And the price is this bag of 4 million points cards."
"100,000 points for each person. Is anyone not satisfied?" Hachiman asked.
Are there any dissatisfactions?
The first-graders around them looked at each other.
Last month, Hōsen took 10,000 points from each of their living expenses.
And since I just entered the school, I need to buy a lot of living supplies, so I don't have much left.
And then having no money this month is really agonizing.
And if you want to make a living, you have to aim for the top three.
Although Hōsen said he wanted to be in the top three, this would be a battle against senior students, so it's hard to say whether he could make it.
If everyone could get 100,000 points...
"I won't interfere with Hōsen's actions," Hachiman continued. "So he can still represent your class in the competition."
"After all, I'm a senior student, and I will give first-year students a chance," Hachiman said.
This means that Hōsen is still willing to fight for the top three class evaluation scores.
This reassured all the remaining dissatisfied students.
And Nanase stopped resisting.
But.
"Can you tell us what we're going to do?" Nanase asked.
