A few days have passed since my talk with Ryuen and he seems to be taking some sort of actions outside of class mapping camera locations and threatening senpais but none succumbed to his half hearted threats yet. I feel this will just make Ryuen attack them more aggressively in the future and probably our own class as well when the time comes.

I had a few chats with him during the time and he seemed to be wanting to befriend me which I found to be very peculiar. I imagined him as some sort of delinquent who would take control of the class immediately from his demeanour and actions but maybe he is a really nice guy like the Hirata I heard of in class D.

It was Friday now and the chatting in class seemed to be ever slightly increasing as none of the teachers said anything about our behaviour so it continued.

Homeroom was about to end and we were given some free time which was the same as normal class for most of us.

I saw Ryuen go up to the podium and bang his hand hard against it garnering the attention of the whole class. "Listen up class I have some important information for all of you. Our class will not be receiving 100,000 points next month."

Audible gasps could be heard with a few people glaring at him for some reason.

Kaneda spoke "What makes you think that Ryuen is it related to what you said on the first day?"

"Kukuku why do you guys think the teachers aren't discipling us in the slightest?"

A few of the smarter students seemed to be deep in thought such as Kaneda.

"It's simple we are in an elite school so they don't care that much." Ishizaki the idiot stated like it was fact.

"Wouldn't it be the opposite smartass." A few students chuckled at Ryuen's counter with Ishizaki clenching his fist but restraining himself.

'I really want to call of these guys maggots but for the guilt to set in for all of them I really need to at least appear as a saviour for now.' Ryuen thought.

"Anyways I believe our behaviour and test scores will determine our points as you might have seen there are free items at the convenience store, the free meals eaten by senpais and the fact class D people were openly mocked as defective. So there must be some hierarchy that is all don't say I didn't warn you when the time comes." Ryuen left the podium and went back to his seat with people staring at him as he returned but it seemed that he didn't care about it in the slightest.

Classes went by and the majority paid attention probably out of concern that what Ryuen said might be true but there were a few that weren't such as Manabe who sneakily went on her phone during class. I also saw a few of the boys openly ignore this and chat in class perhaps as an act of rebellion.

The lunch bell went and I saw Ryuen walk up to a group of boys who had openly ignored his request Sonoda, Oda and Suzuki "Come meet me behind the dorms at 4 kuku." He stated for some reason I feel like it might be a fight but I also saw Ryuen glance at me when he said this. Does he want me to hear this information?

I left to go to my lunch spot with the pink and platinum haired girls still there. Today was different though as I saw the pink haired one slowly approaching me by moving seat by seat every few seconds.

"Can I help you?" I asked directly looking into her eyes which were darting around with a look of nervousness written all over her face.

"Eh uhm h-hello I am Sakura A-Airi n-nice to meet you." She stated while putting her hand our for a shake. (I obliged and gave her a milkshake yes I am funny)

I responded in kind and shook it with minimal strength as she seemed quite weak. "Ayanokouji Kiyotaka nice to meet you Sakura." I responded but I noticed the platinum haired girl perk up at my name perhaps she has heard of me before.

No there should have been nothing noteworthy outside of class to even make me known other than sitting here for the past few days.

Sakura genuinely smiled and seemed to be relieved of all of her nervousness just be speaking to me. While the platinum haired girl seemed intrigued by her behaviour.

"Do you want to be friends with me?" The previously shy Sakura was replaced with a normal one perhaps out of relief that I had spoken with my voice which has said to be calming.

"Sure I'd love to." As I said that the other person with us decided to join in on our conversation.

"My oh my my kouhais seem to be creating a blossoming love." She said very smugly.

"Ehh! No I was just making my f-first friend." She replied and seemed to be losing her cool facade from her teasing.

"Maybe." I nonchalantly stated.

Sakura seemed to get extremely flustered and red which was confusing as no one would want to date me maybe she was so disgusted by the idea that it made her flustered or maybe it's her personality.

"Kiryuin Fuka don't forget it and definitely don't spread it." She grinned while extending her hand to me for a shake.

I shaked and she was way stronger then the average women. She was so strong that a normal man would likely cry out in pain but I responded with the same level of strength.

She seemed more intrigued and I could see Sakura looking at me with concern and envy for some reason perhaps she wants to be kiryuins friend as well.

As I finished my handshake she gave one to Sakura who returned with her smile.

"Well nice to meet you Mr. 50 and Shizuki." For 50 I believe she would be referring to the entrance exams I did but how did she get access to that perhaps she is part of the student council I overheard a bit of from the class who claimed the president himself was scary.

Sakura flinched at the name shizuki but who was shizuki seemed like something I should check later.

"So how did you get that information Kiryuin-senpai?" I would like to know the source to limit the spread of information but I doubt she'll give it up that easily.

"Don't worry about it kouhai-kun." Seems like she said Mr. 50 purely to show she knows about me and Sakura.

Sakura was contemplating something really hard in her head and was seemingly troubled by it well if she wants to talk about she'll do it so I shouldn't think much about it.

I didn't really know how to respond so I continued eating my lunch as Sakura did eventually as well.

"So kouhais why do you guys still eat here many leave after the second time as they get bored of the scenery." Is she trying to get us to leave the spot so she can have it to herself?

"No, I enjoy the ocean view and if I get bored of it I can look up to the sky or my phone." I would also mention I could look at Kiryuin's beauty but I believe that would make it awkward.

"Thinking something lewd there kouhai." Damn is she a mind reader.

"I have no idea what you would be talking about."

She seemed satisfied with the answer and left back to her seat and ate.

"Ayanokouji-kun c-can I tell you something and can you keep it a s-secret?" She built up a lot of courage to ask this question must be something important.

"Sure Sakura."

"Well I-I am actually an id-idol named Shizuki." Ahh so that's what Kiryuin meant by that but, it seems Sakura wants to keep this hidden as deduced by the fake glasses she is wearing.

Perhaps she did it to avoid getting swarmed by boys as many idols aren't allowed to date people as said by internet-sensei.

"Uhmmm congratulations?" 'I had no idea how to respond to this' - author and ayanokouji on same wavelength here.

"Ehhh... Oh I just wanted to say it because senpai said it and you might get confused." Her stuttering disappeared once more it seems like once she forgets the fact she is interacting she can speak normally.

The bell went and I said my goodbyes to Sakura and nodded to Kiryuin. What a weird lunch group.

Classes ended and Ryuen came up to my desk as I was packing. "You going to come watch later Ayanokouji?" So it seemed my guess of him wanting me to know about his plans was correct.

"Sure why not." I believe a fight might occur but if I am present it would likely not be as brutal although it isn't like I really care what happens to them.

I saw Manabe look at me slightly perplexed at what we were discussing. "Be there 10 minutes before and go behind the tree recording it for my pleasure later kuku."

Is he perhaps a sadist or maybe he wants me there as an accomplice well I already agreed so no backing out now unless I want him to be aggressive towards me later.

I went back to the dorms and changed into the casual clothes I bought yesterday nothing special just a sports shirt along with pants and sneakers. In the worst case scenario I somehow get involved in the fight I'd rather not risk damaging my uniform.

I arrived at the spot Ryuen told me beforehand and Ryuen was there waiting and gave me a nod when I brought my phone out to record later.

He went to a more open space waiting for Oda, Sonada and Suzuki to arrive.

I sensed a presence behind me and saw Manabe she was about to speak but I placed my finger on my lips to signal her to be quiet. She went up next to me and we could hide as the tree I was behind was very big allowing at least 3 people to hide behind it so with 2 it would be easy.

"Why do you have your phone out?" She said in a hushed whisper.

"Ryuen wants me to record this I assume he'll be giving them a beatdown after he riles them up and goads them into attacking." I stated my honest thoughts as Manabe probably already knew I am acquainted with Ryuen quite well.

She simply nods and remains hidden with me.

The trio showed up and were rowdily talking about beating up Ryuen. Well this would be a good opportunity to assess Ryuen's fighting skills and his actions after beating them would show me what he intends to do for the class later.

Manabe's appearance while certainly unexpected could end up helping if Ryuen intends to distill fear into the class to rule them in the future as Manabe had a bit of influence amongst the girls in class.

Oda spoke first "So how badly do you want to get beaten." He stated without a hint of question like it was predetermined what would happen here.

"kukuku come at me then weaklings." he sent a subtle nod to me as he said this to which I took as the signal to start recording.

First Suzuki went up and tried to punch him straight in the face with his right hand which was evaded by Ryuen who simply walked forward and to the side of it and did a quick gut punch without fully extending his arm which made Suzuki keel over slightly.

Ryuen continued his attack as he kneed Suzuki in the nose which started bleeding and he laid there on the ground unconscious. Manabe grabbed on to my sleeve and grasped it tightly likely scared about what was happening. "How are you so calm Ayanokouji-kun." "I heard what was going to happen beforehand." She nodded and grasped a bit tighter.

Sonoda and Oda saw the beating Suzuki received and charged at him as a tag team duo from both sides of Ryuen.

Oda sent out a side kick aimed at Ryuen's gut a bit earlier than Sonoda's left hook to Ryuen's head. Ryuen stepped back and let Sonoda lean forward from the amount of force he exerted on the attempted punch and sent out a side kick which landed directly on his chest he landed on the ground and groaned out in pain.

Oda came forward and attempted to spear tackle him by running right at him to which Ryuen responded with a axe/hammer kick raising his leg above his head and then striking it down onto his head to which he landed chin to the ground unconscious. Thank god I didn't have to fight this guy it would have been dangerous.

Sonoda slowly got up but was very dazed to which Ryuen just approached him and sent a right hook to just above his ear near the temple leaving him unconscious.

Ryuen had some blood stains on his fist as he approached where I was. "Ayanokouji send me the video so I can humiliate and discipline these idiots."

I came out and nodded and opened the messaging app and sent the text. Manabe then came out which slightly surprised Ryuen. "Is it really necessary to beat them up for simply not heeding your advice." Manabe seemed to have lost her previous worry and acted like a gyaru to send her point across.

"kukuku of course how else would they listen to me... Also, Manabe don't think I haven't noticed you going on your phone from time to time." He let out a very mischievous grin with those words.

"So what are you gonna do about it?" Manabe was way too overconfident and would likely receive a beating if I don't step in.

"Well then I'd have to beat you up right here and now."

Manabe came closer to him unnerved where did all of this confidence come from she looked like she would piss her pants earlier.

"I wont bow down to you." Manabe really was confident was she perhaps hiding some fighting skills

Ryuen simply slapped her face as Manabe attempted to raise her hand to stop it but lacked the speed necessary to do so.

I need to speak up now to stop this as Manabe was somewhat a friend and had taken the time to talk to me and even tailed me here likely out of worry for my safety.

"Ryuen you don't need to beat her up she understands to listen she saw the fight earlier so she knows that you will actually do it." I needed to be quick and concise here

Manabe meekly nodded to my statement to show she understands. Ryuen came closer to me and Manabe seemed worried. "Don't hurt Ayanokouji-kun he just wanted to stop your rampage."

He simply laughed at her words and approached me. "Lucky you with such a caring girlfriend. We will discuss plans for the class tomorrow I'll message you later."

He then left and I helped Manabe get up and while she seemed reluctant to receive my help she eventually accepted it. I left her to sit against the wall as she held her cheek in pain as I quickly dashed to the store to grab a bag of frozen peas.

As I came back she seemed irritated at me for some reason but once I showed her the bag the look vanished. I gave it to her and she applied it to her cheek and let out a sigh of relief.

"You will be paying attention in class now right I wouldn't want my friend to get hurt again." I stated as Manabe was stubborn from what I had seen once she had an idea in mind.

"I guess I'll need to tell Yabu, Yamashita and Morofuji so they wont get hurt like me." She stated with worry. She likely went against Ryuen here to protect her friends and maybe even me in her own way at least.

She worriedly spoke again "Why doesn't Ryuen want to beat you up or did you submit to him already?"

Well I don't actually know the reason I would suspect it was because we were kind of friends but his words of plans for the class made me feel like he trusts me to an extent.

"To be honest I don't know but from what I can tell he trusts me quite a bit so as long as don't do anything bad in class I'll make sure he doesn't hurt you ok Manabe." My ever present monotone voice likely ruined the tone I tried to convey but Manabe seemed to understand.

"Just make sure you don't involve yourself with beating people up Ayanokouji-kun shouldn't become violent okay." She stated while patting my shoulder.

I think I can consider myself one of Manabe's friends she would be willing to protect even if it meant her risking danger like with Ryuen earlier.

"Are you ok to get up now?"

"yeah I'll be fine."

She got up and we walked back into the dorms with a few weird glances at us likely due to the red on Manabe's cheek and the bag she held on to from earlier.

We entered the elevator and she gave me the bad ad thanked me for helping as I exited and offered me the bag but I refused and left for my room to eat and sleep to wonder what Ryuen would want to talk about tomorrow.

The next day came and Ryuen messaged me 'I'll be in your room in 10 minutes be ready playboy' I wondered over why he would call me playboy repeatedly. There is no way he would be jealous right?

As I wondered if Ryuen was desperate for women I heard a knock my door and quickly opened it revealing Ryuen wearing exercise gear. Perhaps he intends to beat me up without witnesses but he should realise that I would be prepared for that if I wasn't strong enough to fight him back with hidden cameras or recording on my phone.

I turned my back to him to walk further into the room and as I did a high kick was aimed at my head to which I ducked. He landed his foot cleanly and went back into a fighting stance. He aimed a straight punch at me and I caught it and applied some pressure.

"kuku I had a feeling you'd be good at fighting but this is unexpected you monster." Perhaps my poker face left me at a disadvantage as it would appear I have seen many fights based on how calm I was during the encounter with the trio yesterday.

"I'm just a bit above average maybe you are just weak?" I stated

"Kuku sure monster anyways I have a plan to make the class ours may 1st. I'll take control of the boys and you control the girls." This was unexpected and how would I take control of the girls in class I had barely interacted with them.

"How exactly would I do that?"

"Once our points are announced I plan to make an example of a few of the boys and then I will threaten Manabe and you'll fight me back creating 2 seperate factions to outside eyes but in reality we will be working together kuku." It was a good strategy and it would be somewhat emulating the strategy class A had which Ryuen had informed of a while back except that our class' 2 leaders would be secretly working together.

However, to fight him back I would have to show some of my abilities so I would have to show my strenght in the upcoming PE classes a bit so it wouldn't seem suspicious.

"Alright then I'll make Manabe my right hand woman to help me with this then but what if a situation arises where we have to work together in public eyes."

"Kuku that's what makes it all the better we will pretend to be at odds similar to class A making it more believable. However, I have a step I'd like to take to make the girls make you their leader more easily."

I wonder what it could be. "What would that be?"

"Simply smile and I will take a picture of it and spread it to the girls in class. Maybe even sell it some as these points will be valuable in the future."

Why would me smiling be that advantageous I'd seen Ishizaki smile at a few girls and they were repulsed by it and that would be counter intuitive in this scenario.

"Why would me smiling help?"

He shook his head in disappointment? He opened his phone to a screenshot he had and it showed a list of ikemen rankings and I was at second for some reason. Apparently I had a mysterious hard to approach gloomy look that I rocked and a few girls wanted to eat me which concerned me as cannibalism is not something I am looking forward to. The person in 1st place was a guy from class A but the comments said he was average but just really handsome. (cuz he talked to people his rating gone up boi)

"Kuku trust me we get you to 1st place and then you can even make some spies in other classes while pretending to be against me its simple and then we can add to your harem monster."
