Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom

And Horikita Suzune's side made the first move.

"..." Sakayanagi.

This starting chess piece caught Banliu's attention.

Because this is the first-hand plan she likes. Then she remembered teaching Oreki-san.

It seems to be the same as the message received.

For more than two weeks, Horikita Suzune would appear on the boys' floor from 19 to 21 o'clock every day, or to be precise, she would go to Oreki-san's room.

Don't think anything will happen though.

but.

The result is this.

Her Oreki-san has been playing chess with Horikita Suzune for more than two weeks.

All that can be seen is Horikita Suzune playing chess without emotion.

Like a chess player.

It's an amazing feeling.

Although Horikita Suzune was playing chess, Itayagi felt like she was playing chess directly with Oreki-san.

So.

He went out of his way to teach Horikita Suzune how to play chess. In other words, what did Oreki-san want to tell her through this?

Although I don't understand.

But Banliu had to take action.

Because Kamuro-san is a poor chess player, he probably only knows how to place chess pieces.

So now is the time she needs to take action.

…

Through the live broadcast, Oreki-san noticed that two of the four commander towers had disappeared.

Ryuuen and Honami Ichinose left the special classroom.

Because their exams are over.

In this showdown between Class B and Class D, Class B was very lucky.

Originally, Class B had 5 projects, Class C had 5 projects, and then the computer system randomly selected 7 projects for the competition.

The projects produced by their respective classes are of course beneficial to their own classes.

As a result, he won 4 out of 5 projects from Class B, plus he has been harassed by Class C for a while.

So the students in Class B worked hard.

Won 4 games in a row.

Directly won the exam.

Then, he also won one of the three events in Class C.

So in the end, the showdown between Class B and Class C ended with Class B winning 5 and Class C winning 2.

And this was probably a very torturous exam for Ryuuen and the others.

It's a cruel situation where you can't do anything but use your strength, and then you have to lose in terms of hardware.

…

"I can't play anymore." In the live broadcast, the chess game has also come to an end.

Suzune Horikita, who only had 600 games of experience, lost to Arisu Sakayanagi, who had over 10,000 games.

And Class D's luck has come to an end.

The five events that Class D prepared this time were chess, basketball, swimming, English cloze, and typing competition.

Among them, 4 projects from Class D were selected.

The last remaining event is a typing competition, and the person participating in this event is Kushida Kikyo from Class D. She has many friends, and in order to contact a large number of friends at the same time, she has to hone her hand speed.

Oreki-san has experienced this many times.

So if it were switched to Kushida-san’s project, Class D could still move back to the first round.

But they were out of luck.

The seventh game selected was a project from Class A, a modern literature test.

And Class D no longer has a top student.

In the end, after being put on the shelf, and then in the cry of Sato-san who left the scene crying because he couldn't do it, there was a showdown between Class A and Class D, the strongest and the weakest class.

The curtain has come to an end.

Chapter 191 Battle with Sakayanagi Arisu! Real chess game!

First grade bulletin board.

The special examinations of the four classes were over, but Teacher Mashima from Class A was already standing there, and then wrote the results of this special examination.

Class A+150-60+100=+190 points

Class B+150-60+100=+190 points

Class C-150+60=-90 points

Class D-150+60=-90 points

The score looks a little strange, but this time, Mr. Majima has been very tolerant of the special exam.

In previous exams, teachers would say that they would not inform the students of specific score deductions and hoped that students would think for themselves.

But this time, there was no need to think.

Because this value translates into a total of 7 duels between Class A and Class D. Class A won 5 games, lost 2 games, and finally received an additional reward from the school with 100 points.

The same goes for Class B.

This time it was the upper class that won.

Class A and Class B both received bonus points of 190 points for class evaluation, while Class C and Class D each received a deduction of 90 points for class evaluation.

"Isn't this a good result?"

After Mr. Majima left, members of the student council arrived.

It was the student council president Horikita Manabu who seemed to be unsmiling, and then there was the secretary Tachibana Akane.

Akane Tachibana-senpai was holding a folder as usual.

But when looking at Oreki-san, the senior's expression was very subtle.

That's right.

Because they are now graduating graduates but they are also living a hard life.

95% of the class's class evaluation score must be used as debt repayment to Oreki-san, so the living expenses left for them are not enough.

But this was a result of spending points to buy one's own future, and it was also the result that everyone agreed with, and no one complained.

But when I actually faced Oreki-senpai, the creditor, I felt really weird.

She herself was also wondering if if she had reported her experience to Horikita-san earlier, this outcome might not have happened.

But what Horikita said is that what is in the past is in the past. Although the optimal solution was not achieved in the past, the current results are not bad, right?

Not bad indeed.

…

"Your sister——"

Oreki-san has already prepared to show Horikita-san’s harmless nature to Sakayanagi-san.

Then he arranged for Horikita to play chess with him.

Of course, this was not what persuaded Horikita Suzune, but the high-sounding hope that she could grow.

And this kind of words can also be used here.

"Although Horikita-san is not the command tower of Class D this time, she is the final planner," Oreki-san said. "Judging from the results of the showdown between Class A and Class D, Class D lost miserably. However, there were still some achievements in the process. At least the students in my class will no longer look down on the students in Class D so much."

"If that's what you're talking about—"

Just as Manabu Horikita was about to speak, he suddenly remained quiet.

Secretary Ju Qian quickly looked over and found a fox-eyed girl with beautiful straight black hair running towards here.

As for this fox-eyed girl, everyone present was familiar with her.

This is Horikita Suzune.

"call--"

She probably ran here in a hurry, so when she finally arrived at her destination, Horikita Suzune was out of breath.

"Oreki-san...and my brother are here too——"

Horikita Suzune didn't seem to expect to meet here, so she was a little surprised.

"I've heard Oreki tell you about taking the exam." Horikita pushed up his glasses. "Lingyin, you have changed a lot since you entered school."

"According to my judgment, you can continue climbing up."

Horikita learned to encourage her sister, which is quite rare.

You must know that when enrolling in school, Horikita Academy asked his sister to drop out of school without hesitation.

But now, she is allowed to move on.

In other words, he recognized her.

Then naturally I agreed that she could continue to make progress in this school.

And this is what Horikita's sister has always wanted to get, her brother's approval. And now it has been obtained.

oh.

However, Horikita's sister seemed to be relieved. He didn't stop for long, but quickly set his sights on Oreki-san.

"Looking for me?" Oreki-san asked.

"Um."

Suzune nodded.

"We lost the chess match," Oreki said, pushing his forehead. "So, are you very unhappy?"

"No." Horikita Suzune answered very simply. "I'm just a little bit unwilling, and I want to win it back next time."

"Then just laugh." Oreki said.

"Why?" Horikita Suzune frowned slightly.

"Because you are strong enough." Oreki then stretched out his hand to her, "Congratulations, you can still maintain yourself despite enduring such mental torture. You have grown, and this is quite significant. It's important. It's also what I hope you can learn. And your brother also sees it."

"Boom——"

Horikita seemed stunned for a moment, maybe because he didn't expect Oreki-san to say that.

She was asked by Oreki to show her strength in this special examination.

I want to show an answer sheet to my brother who is about to leave school.

And she thought that even though she tried hard, Class D still lost in the end, and it was a very bad paper.

result……

It seems there's more to it than that.

Because I didn't expect that winning or losing in this exam is not important. What is important is to train her and make her become independent?

Horikita Suzune's mind suddenly flashed that Oreki had been training with her every day these days.
