章節 282: -278- The student council president's goal
After leaving the sports swimming pool, the group arrived at the standard swimming pool.
However, upon arrival, the enthusiasm of the people who were eager to play just moments ago seemed to vanish. They looked at Nanaya Hori with strange expressions, their faces filled with confusion.
It appeared that Nanaya Hori's volleyball match against Miyabi Nagumo not only amazed others but also left those who knew Hori with complex feelings.
Even Sudou Ken, confident in his athletic abilities, couldn't help but utter a single phrase to Hori.
"You're a monster."
It was a succinct and clear expression of his feelings.
Ironically, this sentiment echoed in the minds of everyone present.
For Ayanokouji Kiyotaka and Sakura Airi, who followed everyone else, there was little surprise.
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka knew Hori's background and had been effortlessly subdued by him during the deserted island special exam. Hence, he was not surprised at all.
Sakura Airi, although unaware of Hori's background, had witnessed firsthand how he single-handedly subdued the creepy store clerk, seeing him as capable of anything.
So, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka and Sakura Airi were not surprised by Hori's display of power and instead seemed to take it in stride.
But the others couldn't help but be astonished.
"Nanaya-kun really continues to defy our expectations," said Kushida Kikyou with a bitter smile.
Even Horikita Suzune frowned, looking at Hori with an unusual expression.
"Who exactly are you?" Horikita Suzune finally asked the question.
Because Hori's abilities had far exceeded her estimates. Horikita Suzune didn't believe that someone could be so powerful based solely on talent.
Even her brother needed comprehensive training and effort to become excellent. No one could be naturally that formidable.
Hori's abilities were so powerful that they clearly surpassed what could be considered mere genius. Horikita Suzune couldn't believe he hadn't undergone specialized training and development.
Thus, Horikita Suzune began to doubt Hori's background for the first time.
Only Kanji Ike and Yamauchi Haruki kept exchanging glances, feeling completely out of touch with the current topic and development.
In such a situation, Ichinose Honami alone watched Hori with eyes that flickered uncertainly.
Watching everyone around him still immersed in shock, Hori couldn't help but find it amusing.
"Is who I am really that important?" Hori said confidently. "Instead of worrying about me, why don't you pay attention to Miyabi Nagumo?"
"Miyabi Nagumo?" Everyone was suddenly puzzled.
Why focus on Miyabi Nagumo?
What was the reason?
"He already lost badly against you. Why should we care about him?" Suzune Horikita spoke frankly, a remark that was likely to offend someone.
To this, Hori merely glanced at Horikita Suzune.
"Just because he's lost once doesn't mean you can underestimate him. At least he's much more capable than you."
This direct statement was even more straightforward than Horikita Suzune, but before she could get angry, Hori continued.
He said, "Even if you don't pay attention to him now, you'll have to pay attention to him later."
Hori's eyes flickered slightly as he smirked and said, "Now I understand why Horikita Manabu invited me to join the student council and why even Sakayanagi and Katsuragi of Class A couldn't get his approval and were rejected in the student council interview."
These words surprised everyone.
Even Ayanokouji Kiyotaka was slightly stunned, seemingly not understanding what was going on.
This was understandable.
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka was not among those who went to the restaurant with Horikita Manabu.
Because of this, he didn't even know that Horikita Manabu had invited Hori to join the student council.
Only Horikita Suzune and Kushida Kikyou remembered Hori's mention of Horikita's intention to use his remarks.
Indeed.
This was the reason.
Hori had a suspicion.
"Miyabi Nagumo's words helped me realize," Hori said calmly. "He wants to turn Advanced Nurturing High School into a true meritocracy."
Exclude those without ability.
Keep those with ability.
This was what Miyabi Nagumo said to Hori.
And Hori didn't think that Miyabi Nagumo was just talking casually.
"Miyabi Nagumo will become the next student council president, right?" Hori said calmly. "If he becomes the president and wants to transform this school into the meritocracy he mentioned, it shouldn't be impossible."
That's right.
If Miyabi Nagumo becomes the student council president, the words he mentioned will become reality.
Who gave the student council such great power in this school?
Although the student council was not all-powerful and could not really change the school's system and rules, it could influence them from the sidelines, right?
For example...
"Regarding the school's rules, create opportunities for those without ability to drop out."
Hori pointed this out.
For example, in mid-term exams, those who fail will be expelled, a rule that the school already has.
With the power of the student council, there should be a way to suggest raising the passing line.
This will result in many students who fail and whose academic performance is not very good being expelled.
"Even the student council may influence special exams. If very strict conditions are added to the special exams and not met, students will be expelled. This is not surprising at all."
Hori said to everyone like this.
This was also guessed by Hori.
The student council had the right to conceive and decide part of the special exam based on the plan formulated by the student council before.
Once Miyabi Nagumo becomes the student council president, it is entirely possible to develop special exams different from those up to now, leading to the expulsion of most students.
"This is what Horikita Manabu doesn't want to see."
Hori revealed Horikita's purpose.
"He invited me to join the student council to deal with Miyabi Nagumo and even drag him down."
This was Horikita Manabu's goal.
