"Recently, I haven't changed my body wash, so Yukima-san must have slled it wrong," Katou gumi said.
"Then, could it be Katou-san's natural scent?"
"Yukima-san, you're saying strange things again!"
"Let's go check the class assignnt board."
"Okay!"
At this mont, the class assignnt board was crowded with people.
New students were eagerly searching for their nas.
Yukima Azuma and Katou gumi coordinated effortlessly, starting from opposite ends of the list.
Their eyes scanned quickly.
The first few lists yielded no results.
Just as Yukima Azuma was about to check the next list,
Katou gumi softly called his na from the other side.
Yukima Azuma walked over.
At the very bottom of the list, under Class 1-E, the first na stood out clearly—it was his own.
The class lists seed to be ordered by entrance exam scores.
Yukima Azuma's gaze continued downward.
Soon, he spotted the na Katou gumi.
They were in the sa class.
When Yukima Azuma tilted his head to look at Katou gumi, he was imdiately greeted by a gentle smile on her beautiful face.
Katou gumi, who rarely showed emotions, conveyed a great deal of joy with just a small smile.
Yukima Azuma looked further down.
Aki Tomoya.
Seeing this na, Yukima Azuma involuntarily frowned.
He ignored what wasn't worth his attention.
Quickly, his eyes caught another na.
Sakamura Spencer Eriri.
Due to its length, "Eriri" stood out prominently among the three- or four-character nas on the list, making it easy to spot.
Yukima Azuma scanned the crowd.
In no ti, he spotted Eriri in a corner, laughing gleefully.
Without hesitation, he took action.
Yukima Azuma pulled out his phone, opened the cara, and aid it at Eriri.
Click!
Under the morning sunlight, the golden glow illuminated the golden-haired girl. Her delicate white blouse and her adorable face, paired with a smile that could lt hearts, made for a perfect picture.
"Yep, this one's going straight into the bank," Yukima Azuma thought as he effortlessly added the caption "Hehe, silly" beneath the photo.
The crowd flowed from the school gate toward the announcent board and then moved en masse toward the main hall.
Yukima Azuma and Katou gumi followed the current.
Perhaps due to her faint presence, the bustling freshn occasionally passed right between them, so nearly colliding with Katou gumi.
Thanks to her well-practiced skill of avoiding obstacles, Katou gumi navigated the crowd gracefully without bumping into anyone.
Even so, it was inevitable that the two gradually drifted apart.
Realizing this, Yukima Azuma imdiately reached out and pulled Katou gumi closer.
"Hold onto my shirt; I'll lead. That way, we won't get separated," he said.
Katou gumi softly murmured an "Okay."
She reached out, grasping the back hem of Yukima Azuma's shirt, her gaze flickering slightly.
Together, they made their way to the main hall and took their seats.
"I wonder who this year's freshman representative will be," Katou gumi mused softly after letting go of Yukima Azuma's shirt.
Her gentle voice seed to carry a hint of embarrassnt.
"Are you that curious, Katou-san?" Yukima Azuma teased with a sly expression.
"Calling it curiosity is a bit much," Katou gumi said, lightly twirling her finger. "But I do think the person must be quite outstanding. You see, the freshman representative is always the top scorer in the entrance exam. To get the highest score at Toyosaki is really impressive, don't you think?"
Yukima Azuma stroked his chin lightly. "It's nothing special."
Hearing this, Katou gumi imdiately caught on to sothing.
She turned her gaze to Yukima Azuma, staring at him without blinking.
Yukima Azuma nodded plainly.
"Yep, I'm this year's freshman representative."
"How cheeky," Katou gumi said, playfully reaching out to gently punch Yukima Azuma's shoulder.
.....
The principal of Toyosaki Gakuen, a bald old man, stepped onto the stage next.
He began a rather pompous speech.
Thankfully, he kept it to the promised five minutes.
Afterward, Yukima Azuma was called to the stage.
Standing on stage, Yukima Azuma faced the gazes of thousands of incoming freshn.
He delivered the opening speech he had prepared in advance—a standard one.
Was he nervous? Not in the slightest.
Having lived through two lifetis, Yukima Azuma had experienced countless situations of varying scales.
Just his inherent composure alone, coupled with the strategic mindset he honed through Go, rendered the stares of thousands nothing more than a fleeting breeze.
.....
Below the stage:
Katou gumi, with eyes as gentle as jasmine, gazed unwaveringly at the boy in the spotlight.
Eriri looked up at the stage, her mouth agape in awe, her ocean-blue eyes glimring with admiration.
Aki Tomoya fixed his gaze on the stage, recalling the pre-enrollnt intel he had gathered, his mind buzzing with calculations.
Thus began the stage nad Toyosaki.
.....
Class 1-E
"Yukima-san, that speech was really impressive!"
"Top scorer in the entrance exam? That's incredible!"
"Yukima-san, do you have a girlfriend?"
A crowd quickly gathered around Yukima Azuma, most of them girls.
After all, he was not only the most academically accomplished but also one of the most charismatic guys in the academy.
Moreover, with the sester just starting, this was the perfect ti for new connections.
Those with even a sliver of extroversion naturally sought to get acquainted with him.
As the crowd began to swell, more people, attracted by the commotion, joined in.
Thus, a social vortex had ford around Yukima Azuma.
To the barrage of complints and introductory chatter, Yukima Azuma responded with a calm and polite smile, acknowledging each person.
Maintaining good relationships in high school is a tricky endeavor.
Teenagers are often sensitive, and their friendships are less dictated by practical gains.
Yet, once relationships are managed well, they can bring significant convenience.
Influence without sacrificing benefits is a luxury unattainable in the professional world.
.....
anwhile, Eriri had entered the classroom long ago.
Assigned to the sa class, her anticipation grew stronger.
However, seeing more and more people—especially girls—flocking around Yukima Azuma made her increasingly tense.
Her hand clutched a handkerchief so tightly that she nearly tore it apart with her teeth.
