Now reading: Chapter 9 9: Slice-of-life Anime? from COTE: Popularity System, a Action novel by Astralic1.

'Very good.'

Watching the Popularity Points on the system interface continuously rise, Takada Hikaru revealed a satisfied smile.

Just as he expected, after displaying the points he held, his Popularity Points surged.

Judging from the ani, he was rely showing the points to Horikita Suzune. But in reality, he was showing the points to the audience, demonstrating his strength.

"How did you do that?" Horikita Suzune's eyes widened, her lips trembling slightly, her voice filled with disbelief.

She blinked, thinking she had misread it, but even after checking again, the points were undeniably 1.6 million.

"Do I have an obligation to answer you?" Takada Hikaru imitated what Horikita Suzune had just said, a satisfied smile on his face.

Why would he risk offending upperclassn just to earn points?

It was precisely so he could find an opportunity to display his points in front of the audience and gain a large amount of Popularity Points.

His luck today was good, he happened to run into Horikita Suzune while shopping at the convenience store, quickly allowing him to display his strength in front of the audience.

Now, his Popularity Points had reached 30,000, and they were still increasing. After this plot segnt ends, the Popularity Points might exceed 50,000.

Horikita Suzune bit her lip.

How could she not know that Takada Hikaru was deliberately imitating her speech?

"It seems I underestimated your strength."

She adjusted her breathing to calm herself. "But don't get too smug. If you can earn 1.6 million points on the first day of school, I can certainly do it too."

Hearing this, Takada Hikaru wore an amused smile. "Knowing I have so many points, you don't run away but instead want to challenge ? An interesting woman."

"Since I proactively revealed my points, may I know your na?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the comnts in front of Takada Hikaru beca lively.

[Woman, you have piqued my attention.]

[Instead of running away, you're actively approaching ? Jotaro!]

[I can't beat the shit out of you without getting closer.]

[Money-Giving guy looks like a domineering CEO now.]

[Forget Money-Giving guy, his current nickna is Domineering CEO.]

Seeing an opportunity to , the audience imdiately started enthusiastically spamming Domineering CEO.

If Takada Hikaru hadn't activated the Do Not Disturb Settings beforehand, the scene before him would surely have turned into a white ocean.

"Although I don't really want to tell you my na, as you said, since I know your points, I do need to give you equivalent information."

Horikita Suzune seed to think this was a fair trade, so she said, "My na is Horikita Suzune, Class 1-D."

Takada Hikaru pinched his chin with his finger, nodding slightly. "Suzune, huh? That's a very nice na. It's a pity you were assigned to Class D."

Takada Hikaru shook his head and looked smilingly at the girl before him. "I was looking forward to your future actions, but it seems you're likely to disappoint ."

"What do you an?" Horikita Suzune caught the implication and asked with a frown. "Is there sothing wrong with being assigned to Class D?"

"That's not information you can exchange just by giving your na." Takada Hikaru replied.

"Is it highly valuable information?" Horikita Suzune frowned slightly, understanding that he definitely wouldn't say anything more without a tangible benefit.

"If you are willing to tell this piece of news, how about I reimburse you for this shopping trip?" Horikita Suzune tentatively asked.

"That's far too cheap." Takada Hikaru held up two fingers. "To know this information, the price is at least this."

"Twenty thousand points?" Horikita Suzune relaxed slightly.

That's fine. If it's only 20,000 points, that's acceptable. She didn't usually spend much, and currently, she had 100,000 points. Spending only 20,000 to gain information about the school was quite worthwhile for her.

"No, it's two million points." Takada Hikaru said with a light chuckle.

"Are you joking?" Horikita Suzune's expression instantly darkened, and she eyes glared fiercely at him.

"If you don't believe , you can go ask your horoom teacher, they will also quote this price." Takada Hikaru turned around, waving goodbye with his back to her.

"I still need to buy so daily necessities, so I'll be leaving now."

[CEO looks so mysterious. Could he be the boss?]

[Where would a slice-of-life youth drama get a boss? You're overthinking it.]

[But I saw the ani tag says "Mind Gas." Are you sure this is slice-of-life?]

...

After buying the daily necessities he needed, Takada Hikaru walked out of the convenience store and found a girl from his class already waiting not far from the entrance, holding a plastic bag.

"Takada-san, I saw everything."Andō Sayo said with a cheerful smile. "You're really popular, chatting with a girl from another class in the blink of an eye."

After buying her items, she had intended to notify Takada Hikaru, but unexpectedly found him talking to a girl from another class.

Worried she might interrupt his good fortune, she checked out first and then waited patiently outside.

"I was just slightly interested in that girl." Takada Hikaru said.

"Oh really?" Andō Sayo's face flushed slightly, and she beca excited. "Did you fall for her?"

"Don't misunderstand, I'm just purely interested." Takada Hikaru quickly explained.

"Really?" Andō Sayo was skeptical.

"Of course, it's true." Takada Hikaru gave a bright smile. "I thought Suzune had also discovered the school's hidden rules, so I was just testing the waters."

"Suzune, hidden rules, testing the waters?"

Andō Sayo's face showed confusion, and she blinked repeatedly.

"I can tentatively understand that Suzune is that girl's na." Andō Sayo's expression turned strange. "But what do you an by hidden rules?"

Takada Hikaru explained, "This school is not as simple as it appears on the surface. What the teacher explained to us today is just a deceptive facade. We won't learn about the school's hidden rules until next month, but by then, it will be a bit late."

"That sounds amazing." Andō Sayo's eyes widened slightly.

"I will tell everyone in the class about the school's hidden rules tomorrow morning. Until then, could Sayo-san please keep it a secret?"

"Y-yes, I can." Andō Sayo replied awkwardly.

"Anyway, I'm completely confused right now, so even if I told soone outside, I wouldn't be able to explain anything."

"Thank you then, Sayo-san." Takada Hikaru nodded in satisfaction.

He had a premonition that his announcent of the hidden rules to the class tomorrow would likely beco a Special Plot. He must make good use of it.
