School Rules—Has This World Gone Mad?

"First-year students."

"I am Chabashira Sae, Class D's homeroom teacher. I teach history."

"At Advanced Nurturing High School, teachers do not change throughout the school year. Therefore, for the next three years, I will study and grow alongside you as your homeroom teacher. I look forward to working with you."

By the window, Uchiha tilted his head. Wasn't she only supposed to say two sentences? That was already three!

Holding up the booklet in her hand, Chabashira emphasized solemnly:

"This admission guide contains the school's special rules. The electronic version was already sent to you earlier."

It was sent out already?!

Was I the only newbie in this class?!

Uchiha licked his finger and hurriedly opened the materials, activating his photographic-memory superpower at the same time.

Flip, flip, flip—

He turned pages faster than people changed their expressions.

The text and images in the booklet were quickly stored in his mind.

Just as the seniors had said, the school was a boarding school that prohibited students from contacting the outside world.

Although students could not leave campus, the place was like a miniature society, with every kind of facility available.

There were KTVs, movie theaters, cafés, shopping malls, and more.

Hm?

The school grounds actually covered more than six hundred thousand square meters.

But in Uchiha's eyes, wasn't this just a huge prison?!

Students could not get out, and outsiders could not get in. Was this some kind of internet-addiction rehabilitation center?!

Seeing the confused looks on the students' faces, Chabashira knew they definitely had not properly read the admission guide over winter break.

As expected of inferior defective products!

Then they had better prepare to welcome the hell of suffering.

She raised an electronic terminal resembling a phone.

"The student IDs in your hands should each have received one hundred thousand points equally. In terms of purchasing power, one point equals one yen. Points will automatically be deposited on the first of every month."

The classroom instantly erupted into noise.

Yamauchi's face stretched into a Yao Ming meme, his wrinkles crisscrossing his face and making him look far older than he was.

"One hundred thousand yen in spending money every month! I'm buying a PS5 Pro!!!"

Kanji Ike immediately wanted to freeload. "Remember to lend it to me for a few days! My favorite beautiful-girl dating sim just launched!!"

The other students were delighted as well, already considering how wildly they were going to shop!!!

A cold smile curled across Chabashira's lips.

She had expected plenty of students to get carried away, but she had not expected them to make up more than half the class. This class was truly rotten to the core.

She unscrewed her thermos and moistened her throat.

After the students quieted down, she continued explaining:

"Student IDs function similarly to credit cards. By spending points, you can use every facility on campus. After the entrance ceremony, you may purchase items from stores and other locations."

"It is currently the rainy season, so I recommend that every student prepare an extra umbrella."

As she spoke, she glanced at Uchiha, whose expression had gone tense. You brat had better not pull that 'walking in a downpour' stunt again.

When the Class A homeroom teacher had shown her the trending video, she had been so frightened that she nearly smashed Majima-sensei's phone to pieces!!!

What the hell was that?!

Uchiha, are you planning to enter show business and become a comedian?!

My heart is weak. I can't take that kind of shock!!!

Meeting his teacher's terrifying gaze, Uchiha guiltily looked out the window.

The system made me do it. I'm a normal person, meow!!

I just...

Simply wanted to become stronger.

At that moment, the weather shifted from sunny to overcast.

One patch of dark cloud suddenly revealed a humanlike smile to Uchiha.

Like a hand-formed Rasengan, its body was like an enormous stomach, gathering rapidly as though it were preparing a stage for all the big shots to show off their skills.

Chabashira slapped the desk, her tone suddenly rising as she pulled certain absent-minded students back into the classroom.

"At this school, where strength reigns supreme, anything can be bought with points. Please remember that."

"Of course, the fact that you were admitted normally proves that you possess the corresponding value and potential."

"How you use your points—whether you spend them yourself or transfer them to someone else—is entirely up to you."

"However, do not threaten others. The school is extremely strict when it comes to bullying. Every year, quite a few students are expelled directly for fighting, so behave yourselves."

Horikita stared at the information recorded in her notebook and spoke indifferently.

"It does not seem as strict as I imagined. The school's rules are rather lenient."

Uchiha looked around. Even Black Long Straight has gone crazy, talking to herself?!

"It feels as though we have been invited into an amusement park. The school is treating us so well that it is almost frightening."

Hearing Horikita's words, Uchiha kept a straight face with ease.

He had been a paycheck-to-paycheck spender in his previous life. In this life, he would resolutely uphold hedonism!

He already had a system, so why the hell should he force himself to suffer for no reason?!

Enjoy the present!!!

Enjoy the fun!!!

If the sky fell, the tall people would hold it up. It was not like lightning could strike you, right?!!

Keep messing around!!!

Chabashira put away her thermos and looked around the classroom.

"Do any of you have any other questions?"

"Since no one seems to have any questions, I wish you a wonderful school life."

"Now, go attend the entrance ceremony immediately. Do not be late."

Wait!!!!

Something's wrong here?!

Uchiha's eyes trembled blood-red. My self-introduction got formatted away?!

No, I absolutely can't just sit here and wait for death!!!

That invincible-body superpower is mine for the taking!

"Chabashira-sensei, please wait!"

Swaggering was like the wind, forever at his side.

Uchiha calmly stood up, his face utterly expressionless.

"I have always had a question in my heart. I wonder if I should ask it?"

Chabashira's heart skipped half a beat.

The entire class's eyelids twitched wildly.

Please, don't say it!

The next second—

"Can I apply to change classes? There are too many big shots in this class. This kind of environment does not suit an exemplary student like me who studies diligently..."

"Or perhaps create a separate Class E. I alone am an army!"

Boom!!!

Explosion!!!

Did he just throw his brain away?!

Take it all away with you, then!!!

Everyone was blasted into disarray!!!

A madman truly was a madman. The moment he opened his mouth, he delivered thunderous quotes of unparalleled arrogance!!!

You're the biggest big shot in the entire class. Do you seriously have no self-awareness at all?!

You want the school to create a Class E just for you, with you as a one-man army?!

Why not go daydream about winning a billion-dollar lottery jackpot instead?!

Diligent studying, my ass. Exemplary student, my ass. Chabashira looked as though she had put on a mask of pain, and in a moment of heated frustration, she exposed Uchiha's true colors.

"I recall that you scored just over sixty in every subject on the entrance exam. You barely passed..."

Upon hearing that, Kushida was overjoyed. He did not have much ability, yet he insisted on pretending to be impressive. Now the teacher has exposed him, so he must be too ashamed to show his face, right?

Yamauchi raised both hands in celebration, his expression mocking.

"Your score wasn't even higher than mine! Where do you get that sense of superiority from?!"

Kanji Ike looked at Yamauchi with contempt and retorted irritably, "Lies."

With Yamauchi's intelligence, if he had scored above sixty, Kanji Ike would eat dirt!!

Sudou proudly raised his head. "That's what athletes are like. We spend most of our time training our bodies, so how good could our grades possibly be?!"

Everyone in the class waited to see Uchiha make a fool of himself.

But would he really bow his head and admit that he was a clown, just as everyone wished?

Uchiha opened the dictionary of his life. Written clearly inside were the words: Impossible!!

Then—

Everyone witnessed a scene they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

Uchiha suddenly had an epiphany, smacking his right fist into his left palm—

"Ah?"

"There was another side to the test paper?"

"I thought the questions were too easy, so I handed it in early!"

"A reporter asked me, 'How did you manage to be the first one out of the exam hall?!'"

"I didn't even give her the time of day: 'Long legs.'"

Time seemed to have hit pause.

"????"

Everyone was dumbfounded at once.

Did I hear that right?!

That fucking works too?!

The entire class fell silent for three seconds before breaking into waves of uproar!

"That twist... is that even right?!!"

"He's showing off! He's still showing off?!!"

"So you only did the first side! No wonder you were the first to hand it in!!!"

"Search your conscience—what the hell do long legs have to do with handing in early?!!"

"Heavens, please take him away already!!"

"Help!! I have the courage to watch, but not the courage to listen!!!"

"Is anyone else like me? My toes have already clawed through the soles of my shoes!!!"

Ayanokoji's entire body stiffened. Looking at the big shot whose face was even more blank than his own, he no longer knew what expression to make.

Only one thought remained in his mind.

This world... has gone mad?!
