Classroom Of The Elite 2nd Year - Full Volume
Vol 1 Chapter 2

...STUDENT CLASS D...

On the second day of school, although technically the first day of class, the,

most of the day was spent on policy and regulatory interviews.

Many students who had any hope were completely blown away by how kind and friendly the teachers were.

After making a big fuss a few days ago, Sudou was left as he slept alone soundly in class.

The teachers saw him sleeping, but no one made a warning to stop him.

After all, deciding to listen to a lesson or not is our choice, so teachers won't be indifferent.

This is how teachers interact

with students who are no longer part of compulsory education?

In this relaxed atmosphere, it soon became time for lunch.

While rising from their seats, the students started to go to lunch with their acquaintances. I couldn't help but approach someone else.

Unfortunately, I can't be close friends with my classmates.

"Pathetic"

The only person who saw my feelings mocked me.

"... what is sad?"

" 'I want someone to take me, I want to have lunch with someone.'

Your mind is very clear. "

"You too, don't you feel the same way? Or are you planning

to live alone for the next three years?"

"Yes, I like being alone."

He answered quickly, without any hesitation. It seems like he really feels that way.

"Rather than worrying about me, worry about yourself."

"All right ..."

After all, it wasn't me who proudly said that I couldn't be friends.

To be honest, it seems like the future will be troublesome because I can't

make friends.

After all, being alone was also conspicuous. If I were to be subjected to intimidation, I would certainly be conspicuous.

Not long after the bell rang, half the class went blank. The people who were left behind either wanted to leave but were alone like me, asleep and not paying attention, or loved solitude like Horikita.

"I was thinking of going out to eat, would anyone want to come with me?"

Hirata said while standing up.

With such thoughts in mind, he looked like a true riajuu.

I have been waiting for my Savior to come. This is the perfect opportunity

to me.

Hirata, I'm coming now. Stiffening my nerves, I slowly raised my hand.

"I'll go too!" "Me too, me too!"

When I saw Hirata surrounded by girls, I put

my hand goes back down.

Why did the girls replace me? That was my chance to be friends with him! Just because he's ikemen doesn't mean you can't go to the cafeteria with him!

"It's very sad."

Another mocking laugh and a disdainful look came from Horikita.

"Don't guess what other people are thinking."

"There again?"

Feeling a little lonely due to the absence of other boys, Hirata looks into the

around room.

When he saw me, our eyes met.

That, right here! Hirata noticed! The man you wanted to invite was here!

After meeting her eyes, her gaze locked onto me.

As expected of the riajuu, he understands my problem!

"Umm, Ayanoko───"

Hirata tried to call my name, but right then and there, too,

"Hirata-kun, hurry!"

The girls held Hirata's hands without noticing me at all.

Ahh ... Hirata's gaze was stolen by the girls.

After that, he and the kids

get out of class. The only thing left is my outstretched arm.

Embarrassed, I pretended to reach out to scratch my head.

"All right then."

Sending me one last look of mercy, Horikita left the classroom alone.

"That's no use ..."

Reluctantly, I stood alone and decided to go to the cafeteria alone.

If I don't want to eat alone, I'll just buy something at the convenience store.

"Ayanokouji-kun .. right?"

On the way to the cafeteria, I was suddenly stopped by a beautiful girl.

She's Kushida, one of my classmates.

Since this was the first time I looked at her from the front, my heart became doki doki.

Her hair was straight, short, brown which reached the top of her shoulders. That's not

simple in any sense, but the school has just approved a more skirt

short, so obviously the uniform is newer.

In his hand was a pouch containing many key holders on it.

I don't know if he's carrying a bag or he's carrying a lot of key holders.

"I'm Kushida in the same class, will you remember my name?

"Sure, I guess I can. What do you need from me?"

"Actually ... I want to ask you something, this is a short question, but Ayanokouji-kun, coincidentally, are you in a good relationship with Horikita-san?"

"We're not too close, just acquaintances, is he doing anything?"

It seemed that the moment the purpose of asking was about Horikita. I feel a little sad.

"Oh, I see, weren't you two together during the first day of school? I asked each person one by one for his contact info, but ... Horikita refused to tell me."

That girl, what is she doing? If asked to contact a woman who

assertive as he is, he can help me out and share it with me.

After that, I will probably get a familiar atmosphere with the class.

"And also, on the day of the entrance ceremony, weren't you two talking to each other in front of the school?"

Given that we are also on the same bus, it is not surprising that he

seeing the two of us together.

"What kind of personality does Horikita have? Is he the type of person who only talks to his close friends?"

Even though she wanted to know Horikita, I could only listen to her questions but not answer any of them.

"I don't think he's very good at interacting with other people. Why do you want to know

about Horikita?"

"During self-introduction, Horikita-san came out of the room, didn't she?

It seems like she's not talking to anyone, so I'm worried about her."

He said that he wanted to get along with everyone inside

his introduction.

"I get it, but I just met him yesterday, so I can't be too helpful."

"Fuun .. So apparently, I thought you two were friends before coming

to SMA. Sorry for asking you such a weird question all of a sudden!"

"No, it's okay, why do you know my name?"

"What, didn't you introduce yourself? I made sure to memorize the name

everybody is.

Kushida listened to my weak introduction.

I don't know why I feel so happy to hear it.

"Once again, Mari is good friends, Ayanokouji-kun!"

Although I felt somewhat confused by her outstretched hand, I rubbed

my hands are on her pants and then shake her hands.

"It's nice to meet you, too… "

Today is a lucky day. Although there were bad times, there were also events

that good.

And because humans thought so well, I quickly forgot about the bad events during this time.

finally, after peeking through the cafeteria door, I decided to go to the convenience store, buy some bread, and return to class.

A group of friends were eating with their respective tables at the side

each other, while there were some students who were secretly eating alone.

The only common thing is that almost everyone has a bento from a convenience store or cafeteria.

I'll start eating when I see Horikita's back in her seat.

He put it on his desk a delicious-looking sandwich. I returned to my seat without saying anything.

When I was about to bite my first loaf of bread, music started playing from the speakers.

"Today, at 5 pm in the number 1 sports hall, there will be a fair club. For those of you who are interested in the club, please enter the number 1 sports hall. I repeat, today-"

(T/N: Fair Club is rawly translated as fair club, as it is confused with

the real meaning, so I use fair club only here)

A girl with a funny voice made an announcement regarding the PA.

The club, yes, I've never been to a club before.

"Hey, Horikita───"

"I'm not interested in the club."

"... I haven't even asked you anything."

"Ok, then what?"

"Are you going to participate in a club?"

"Ayanokouji-kun, are you suffering from dementia or are you just a fool? Didn't I tell you from the beginning that I wasn't interested in the club?"

"Just because you don't have interests doesn't mean you won't

participate."

"That's a silly argument, don't talk like that."

"Good…"

Horikita is not interested in clubs or friends. Whenever I talk

with him, he looks upset. I wonder if she came to this school just for education or a high level of employment.

It's no wonder that's the only reason, but it doesn't feel natural.

"You really don't have any friends, I get it."

"That's wrong, now I can talk to you pretty well."

"You say that, but don't consider me one of your friends."

"True, of course ..."

"Since you want to go see the club, do you intend to enter one of the clubs?”

"No, I'm still thinking about it, maybe I won't join him."

"If you're not going to join the club, why are you going to the fair club? Freaky,

are you using the club as a pretext to make friends?"

How is he so smart? No, maybe I'm too easy to understand.

"Because I failed on the first day, the club was my last chance to

befriend."

"Can I invite someone other than me?"

"That's because I don't have anyone else to invite that I have

the problem!"

"That's right, after all, I don't think that Ayanokouji-kun is serious about the things you say. If you really wanted a friend, you'd probably talk more seriously."

"Because it's impossible for me, I stepped on the path of solitude."

Horikita quietly went back to eating her sandwich.

"I really can't understand such contradictory thoughts."

I want friends, but I can't be friends. It seems Horikita can't

comprehended it.

"Have you ever done anything at the club?"

"No, I don't have any experience at any club."

"Then, do you have any experience with things outside the club? Oh, you

talking about something like this and that?"

"... What do you want to say? I feel the malice behind your words."

"Mischief? I didn't even tell you what I meant."

I received a punch to my side with a quick movement.

I reflexively coughed from his unfathomable strength.

"Hey, what's that for !?"

"

Ayanokouji-kun, I already warned you, but it seems like you didn't listen to what I said. Remember that I'm capable of inflicting more pain than I do."

"There is no violence! Violence doesn't solve anything!"

"Actually Since the beginning, violence has existed because this is the most efficient way

to solve the problem. This is the fastest way to deliver

your opinion of the other party or disregarding the wishes of the other party.

After all, even the State employs police who use weapons and violence to arrest

people, right?"

"You must have said a lot ..." He gave me a long speech stating that he did nothing wrong. Whenever he makes a comment,

he would say senseless things and use them to retaliate viciously.

"From now on, I will use violence to correct the mistake

how are you. how about that?"

"How would you feel if I said the same thing to you?"

I wonder why they called out to the man who raised their hand

fighting women is the lowest and cowardly.

"It doesn't matter, because don't you think it'll never happen?

Anyway, I never said anything I shouldn't have done."

It was an answer that came out far from the left lane. He looks so trusting

that he was never wrong.

Even though he saw and did politely, He was ruthless in it.

"I get it, I get it, I'll be very careful from now on."

Giving up on Horikita, I looked out the window. The weather was good today.

"Club activities..what is it. so ..."

Horikita muttered while pondering something.

"Just a little after school doesn't matter, does it? I'm gonna go

with you."

"Didn't you say it yourself? You want to go to the fair club"

"Oh, right, I never intended to stay any longer, however, I

just looking for an excuse, it doesn't matter?"

"If it's just for a little while, I'll see you after school."

After that, he went back to eating. It seems like he decided to go together

with my efforts to make more friends.

Earlier I said that he was not pleasant to talk to, though,

but his attitude looks like it's going to get better.

"Seeing you try to make friends and fail sounds interesting."

Forget it, he still looks unpleasant.

"Wow, this is bigger than I thought."

Horikita and I met after school to go to the gym.

Almost everything there was a first year; about 100 people were

wait around.

Waiting in the back, we waited for the fair club to start.

Upon entering the sports hall, a brochure with details about the club's activities

propagated.

"I wonder if this school has a very famous club, for example ...

like a karate club?"

"Many clubs here seem to have a high level. There are many members in many clubs that are known nationally."

Although the school is not as well known for sports such as basketball or volleyball, this is unlike club activities that are at the level of ‘hobi’.

"The facilities are also high-grade, look, they even have oxygen capsules, all the equipment offers professional equipment, Ah, but it looks like they don't have a karate club."

"… That's."

"Why are you interested in karate?"

"No, not too.SMA

"But you know, it seems like an inexperienced person will experience

difficulty joining a sports club. Even if someone makes their High School debut, they'll be a replacement forever, I don't think this will be fun."

Everything around here looks too organized and tidy.

"Doesn't that depend on the effort they put in? After 1 to 2 years of practice, anyone can be good."

Training ... I don't think I'll be able to try so hard.

"I don't think that the word 'training' exists for people who avoid

trouble like you."

"What problem avoiders have to do with this?"

"Is someone who avoids problems also avoiding any manual work ? If you declare that you avoid trouble, you should stick to your words until the end."

"I don't take it that far ..."

"If you're always not sure like that, you'll never make friends."

"Your words hurt my heart."

"Thank you for waiting, first-year student, representative of each

each club will explain their activities and how to join,

I am Tachibana, secretary of the student council and chairman in charge of

this club. It's good to see you guys."

After the greetings from Tachibana, the representatives of the club lined up on the sports stage.

There are various representatives, ranging from those wearing judo uniforms to kimonos

beautiful ones.

"Hey, if you ever change your mind, try joining a sports club, doesn't that judo club look good? The senpai looks good and

exhilarating."

"Which part of him looks nice and joyous? The gorilla

it seems like it could kill someone at any time."

"He'll probably tell you that judo is an easy sport."

"Stop!"

I thought the conversation was really happening somewhere, but he was being rude once again.

"Even if that is the case, sports clubs clearly do not accept every beginner, seeing how they look."

"They have to accept, the more people they get, the more

a lot of money is given to the school and they can earn more

utensils."

"It's just using new members as a way to earn money ..."

"It would be ideal to recruit a lot of new members, increase the budget, and,

then make them become ghost members. You must be good at

manipulating the rules in the world."

"A very bad world ... Your way of thinking is weird."

"My name is Hashigaki, and I'm the captain of the archery club. I think there are a lot of students who find it old-fashioned and simple, but it's a very fun and fulfilling sport. We give all new students a warm welcome, so if you're interested, please join us. "

A girl wearing archery clothes started her introduction on stage.

"Look, it looks like they're welcoming beginners, how about you try

joining it? To make their budgets bigger."

"Joining a club for that reason of course not! After all, a sports club

it is a meeting place for the Rijuus. Without knowing someone, you will not

it's fun at all and I might be leaving soon."

"Isn't that a way of thinking due to your crooked personality?"

"Yup, of course, sports clubs are definitely impossible." I don't even want to do a part-time job that's really loose and takes a little effort.

Furthermore, I would probably only join the club if it was easy

joined, calm, and quiet.

"Tsu ...!"

As the club representatives introduced their clubs one by one, Horikita suddenly

stiffens. He looked towards the stage, his face pale.

"What's wrong?"

In her tense state, she looked like she did not hear it.

I also looked up on stage, but I didn't see anything special.

The representative of the baseball club gave his introduction while wearing the uniform.

Is he in love at first sight with her? It doesn't look like that. Be surprised? Disgustful? Or maybe joy? To be honest, his expression was complicated, making it difficult to read his face.

"What's wrong with us?"

"..."

Can he really not hear me? He just stared at the stage. I'll stop talking and wait for an explanation.

Baseball clubs don't seem very attractive compared to others.

No matter how well they welcome the beginners, or how

interestingly the location and time of their meeting, it was just a casual introduction

othersmore. It's not just baseball clubs, all clubs seem ordinary.

if I find out anything interesting from this explanation, the little club is like a ceremony

drink tea and calligraphy clubs and the minimum number of people needed for a new club is 3.

Every time the club was just starting their explanation, the first-year disciples chatted

among their friends about the previous club.

The sports hall has a great atmosphere for it. The club, and

not to mention the supervising teacher, continuing their explanation with a nonchalant look

thrilled. They have to panic to get as many new members as possible.

As the senpai finished their explanation, they got off the stage and walked to several tables.

They might set up a reception area so they could talk to people one-on-one and sign it.

Finally, everyone on the stage walked until one person was left behind.

Everyone's eyes were on the stage. I realized that Horikita

he stared at that person the whole time.

The man was about 170 cm tall, not that tall. His body was thin, black hair shiny.

Sharp glasses, and calculating gazes.

Students who stand in front of the microphone see first year students with

calm gaze.

What kind of club is he, and what explanation will he give? My interest is interested.

However, my interest vanished in the next second. He's completely silent.

Maybe his mind went blank. Maybe he was nervous and his voice didn't come out.

"Do your best ~"

"Have you forgotten to bring your notebook ~?"

"Aahaha!"The first-year disciple threw those words at that person. However, the senpai on the stage did not falter at all.

That laugh or push doesn't seem to be

achieving it.

Even as the laughter began to die, his indifferent face did not change.

The students began to wonder "What's wrong with this senpai?" And the sports hall

being noisy.

Even then, the boy did not move. He just stood there quietly, though,

seeing first year students.

Horikita also looked at the boy with a sharp look.

The relaxed atmosphere gradually shifted in an unexpected direction. It was a shocking mood change.

Finally, the entire sports hall was wrapped up by the tense and desolate atmosphere.No instructions were given, no one dared to speak. It was a terrible silence.

No one can open their mouth to speak. This silence has been

lasts for 30 seconds already ...

The students on the stage started talking.

"My name is Horikita Manabu, and I'm the chairwoman of the student council.

The horikita? I looked at Horikita beside me. I wonder if they

bound...

"The student council is also looking for first-year students to replace third-year graduates. There are no strict requirements to apply

the position, but those who are interested should not join other clubs. Generally, we don't accept any candidates involved at other clubs. "

His tone felt soft, but his mood was still tense. On its own

silencing the entire sports hall.

Of course, it wasn't his position as student council president that gave him that power. Horikita Manabu also carried a strong aura. His presence dominated the entire sports hall.

"Also, we, the student council, are not looking for people who have a naive way of thinking. Not only would such people not be chosen, they would definitely become a stain in this school. The student council is only responsible. To organize the students, but the school expects much more. Those of you who understand can be potential candidates. "

After that unshakable speech, he walked off the stage and walked out of the building. Since no one dared to speak, not a single student spoke as he left the sports hall.

The students did not know what would happen if

they try to talk. Everyone feels like that.

"Everyone, thank you for coming, with that, fair club is over. Our

it will now open a reception area for anyone interested in

join .. The reception area will only open until the end of April, so

anyone interested after that can bring a proposal directly to the club. "

With the help of the chief, the tense atmosphere slowly vanished.

After that, the club representatives opened the reception area.

"..."

Horikita still hasn't moved at all.

"Oi, what's wrong?" Horikita did not answer. My words did not reach him.

"Oh, Ayanokouji-kun, are you coming too?"

I heard an attentive voice. It's Sudou. My classmates Ike and

Yamauchi was with him.

"What is this, three people? Looks like you guys got along."

Feeling jealous, I called Sudou.

"Are you also thinking of joining the club?"

"No, I just saw, does that mean you're thinking of joining

with club?"

"Yes, I've been playing basketball since Elementary School, I think I'll continue it here

also."

I always thought he was doing some kind of sport with a body like that.

Guess it was basketball.

"What about you two?"

"We just came because it felt fun and exciting, me too

hope some kind of important meeting will happen."

"Fuck, what do you mean by an important meeting?"

I pushed Ike again after hearing that questionable goal, and he

replied proudly after crossing his arms.

"My first goal was to make a girlfriend. So, I was hoping for a meeting

the important thing is going to happen here."

So that's how things are like that. Having a boyfriend seems to be an important part

from Ike's ideal school life.

"Also, the student council president had a strong aura. As if he

reign in that place."

"Right, he can silence everyone."

"Yes, yes, I also made a male group chat yesterday." Ike pulled out his phone.

"Do you want to join too? It's pretty good”

"Eh, doesn't that matter?"

"Of course, we're all part of class D."

I wasn't expecting that. I'm glad I've been invited to a group chat.

The perfect opportunity to make friends is finally here!

As I started to pull out the phone to exchange numbers, I saw Horikita

disappear into the crowd. Worried about it, I accidentally stopped moving.

"What's wrong?"

"No ... nothing, let's exchange numbers."

Getting my consciousness back, I shared my contact info with the others.

Horikita has the freedom to do anything and go wherever she is

I want to, and I have no right to stop it.

I felt like following her for a while, but I decided not to

doing so.
