"Nice to et you. I'm Hashimoto Masayoshi."
A boy with a small, blond ponytail approached, extending a hand to Shiki Natsu.
"Shiki Natsu."
Although the guy in front of him seed a bit frivolous... as the first person to show him goodwill, Shiki Natsu found him acceptable.
" too, too! I'm Totsuka Yahiko!"
The green-haired boy also drew near, his face full of excitent.
"Yeah."
Shiki Natsu shook Totsuka Yahiko's hand as well. Why weren't any beautiful girls coming over to shake his hand?
But oh well. He supposed he now had two supporters, right?
"Shiki-san, how are you so amazing? You figured out the school's rules right away! At first, I really thought we'd get one hundred thousand points every month!"
Totsuka Yahiko's eyes were filled with admiration. It had to be said, Shiki Natsu was quite satisfied with the guy's flattery.
"My observation skills are just a bit sharper, that's all. Nothing worth ntioning."
Shiki Natsu chuckled lightly.
"Not at all, not at all! I bet no one in the whole school can match Shiki-san's observation skills! If it weren't for you, Shiki-senpai, our class might not even get ten thousand points a month in the future!"
The flattery was a bit over the top, but... Shiki Natsu liked it.
"Leader, if there's anything you need to do, just say the word."
Hashimoto Masayoshi stood before Shiki Natsu and said with a smile. Despite his frivolous air, he was now affecting a knightly deanor. The contrast was quite sothing.
" too, too!"
Totsuka Yahiko quickly chid in.
The school's rules made it clear that life here would be anything but easy. Therefore... a leader was naturally needed, and the most suitable candidate right now was clearly Shiki Natsu.
It wasn't just because Shiki Natsu was the first to notice sothing was off, but also because he had proposed an excellent solution.
Sakayanagi Arisu's gaze never left Shiki Natsu for a second. Her eyes were full of amusent, and a fighting spirit slowly began to rise within her.
Compared to Katsuragi Kouhei, this opponent seed far more interesting.
Sakayanagi Arisu had already kicked Katsuragi Kouhei off her list of 'interesting toys.'
"So, what's our next move?"
Although Katsuragi Kouhei had also wanted to beco the class leader, now that a more suitable candidate had appeared... he didn't need to fight Shiki Natsu for leadership, especially not if it ant doing things that would harm the class's interests.
"There's no rush. For today, let's just observe. After school, Hashimoto, I'll need you to check out the upperclassn's area. Hmm... as for you, Totsuka, go to the cafeteria and keep an eye out for anyone eating the cheap dishes. Those are the ones who are definitely short on points."
In just a few words, Shiki Natsu had quickly assigned them their tasks. Since these two had approached him and volunteered to be his tools, it was only natural for him to make good use of them.
"No problem. Leave it to ."
A hint of a smile flashed in Hashimoto Masayoshi's eyes, and the corner of his mouth curved into a smirk. It seed he had bet on the right horse.
"I promise to complete the mission, Shiki-san!"
Totsuka Yahiko puffed out his chest and declared his guarantee.
"Is there anything you need us to do?"
Katsuragi Kouhei's gaze fell on Shiki Natsu, clearly indicating he also intended to follow his lead.
"No, we don't need that many people moving at once. Too many, and we'll be easily noticed. I'll create a group chat. Everyone join, and I'll post anything we need later."
Shiki Natsu quickly created a group chat and added all forty people from the class. His phone's contact list, aside from Mashima Tomoya, now contained the thirty-nine other students—everyone in Class A. To have collected all seven Dragon Balls... ahem, I an, all thirty-nine contacts in such a short ti since school started, he was probably in a league of his own, right?
"For now, just as the teacher said, everyone is dismissed. We'll save the self-introductions for later. Just rember not to be late for the opening ceremony."
After saying this, Shiki Natsu left imdiately. He made a quick trip to the restroom. This school really was high-class; there wasn't even a strange sll in the restroom. It was cleaned spotlessly, and all the facilities looked brand new.
Coming to this school was definitely the right choice.
He took out his phone to check the ti. There were still twenty-three minutes until the opening ceremony. It was too early to head over now, so Shiki Natsu decided to wander around a bit and familiarize himself with the school's layout.
The first-year building was separate from the second and third-year buildings, so it was difficult to run into students from other years in the academic area. The only places to interact with upperclassn would likely be public spaces like the cafeteria or the library.
He patted his head to clear it a bit. Now wasn't the ti to be thinking about such trivial matters. He should be looking for new CGs.
That's right. In Shiki Natsu's eyes, CGs were far more important than points.
Just then, Shiki Natsu noticed a familiar figure. Wasn't that his good deskmate, Kamuro Masumi?
Shiki Natsu decided to follow her. It would be a real sha if such a beautiful girl didn't have a CG, right?
An accidental encounter could be a catalyst for feelings to grow, too. Of course, that's assuming there were feelings to begin with.
Shiki Natsu walked unhurriedly into the convenience store. There was still so ti before the opening ceremony, and the store was quite busy with students, most of whom were unfamiliar faces.
Where did Kamuro Masumi go...?
The snack aisle... not there... toiletries aisle... not there... the drink aisle... found her!
Her long hair with its violet sheen was especially easy to spot.
But... why was Kamuro Masumi standing in front of the beer section?
Even if you could buy anything in this school with points, it shouldn't be allowed at Kamuro Masumi's age, right?
You really can't judge a book by its cover. To start drinking at such a young age...
No, wait. Why was she being so cautious, like she was stealing sothing? There was no need to be so furtive just to buy a bottle of beer, was there?
At that mont, their eyes t.
[Ding~]
[CG4: A Desire for Satisfaction (Kamuro Masumi)]
[I don't like beer, but it's the only way I can satisfy my inner desires.]
[Congratulations, Host. You've obtained the Item Card: Cara (With the Recording Pen and Cara, you now have all the tools needed for your school conquest.)]
Ignoring the CG's title, which sounded like a line from an adult ani, Shiki Natsu was completely caught off guard. His wildcat-like deskmate was a master thief?
"Yo, Miss Kamuro. Feel like having a drink?"
Shiki Natsu casually leaned in.
"Or maybe... you want to know the locations of all the caras in here? If you don't mind, I can help you out~"
