Chapter 236: Chapter 1: The Changing Class D

The sports festival ended in mid-October, around the ti of year when it started getting chilly.

The school held a general election to decide who would be in charge of the next student council. Imdiately after the election concluded, the school ushered in the handover ceremony of the student council. It was a large-scale event that gathered students from the entire school to the gymnasium. However, for most of the first year students, it was a very uneventful experience. They were drowsy, but they were attempting to keep quiet and slow their breathing so the teachers and upperclassn wouldn't notice them.

"Now, here are so final remarks from president Horikita of the student council."

Following the moderator's speech, Horikita Manabu slowly approached the microphone on the stage.

If it was the Horikita from before, the younger one I an, just seeing her brother on stage would probably make her cower.

But now, as she watched over her brother's resignation, she was staring at him with a firm look.

"I am proud and grateful to have been able to lead the student council for almost two years. Thank you very much."

After his brief statent, Horikita's brother quietly retreated and returned to his original position.

There were no moving words in his speech. It could be said that it was a solemn and dutiful statent.

However, it does not look like the retirent ceremony will end with just this.

The student council officers on the stage with him stood firm, not breaking their solid posture.

"Student president Horikita has worked so hard for you all. Now, please welco the new student council president, second-year student of Class A, Miyabi Nagumo."

Miyabi Nagumo, the new student president, walked forward and stood in front of the microphone.

Among the student council mbers warmly watching over him on the stage, the figure of Ichinose could be seen.

"I am Miyabi Nagumo of the second year's Class A. President Horikita, I really appreciate your strict and kind guidance so far. I am honored and would like to pay tribute to you. I am thankful for being able to accompany the legendary president who has played one of the greatest leadership roles in the history of this school."

With that, he bowed deeply in the direction of Horikita's brother, and then re-faced the students.

"Let

introduce myself again. My na is Miyabi Nagumo. I will be the next student president of Advanced Nurturing High School. Please take care of ."

It was quite different from the attitude I had glimpsed at the sports festival. Nagumo was very polite and gentle. His expression and attitude that he held during the final leg of the relay race had entirely disappeared. But I felt we were only being shown the surface.

Nagumo smiled thin and small so as to change the calm atmosphere.

"I'll get straight to the point. First of all, I promise to change the terms and appointnt thod of the student council as well as the practice of the general election. This will an changing the date of the general election of the student council from December to October. This shift will be an attempt to move to a new generation for the student council and I judge that that then will be when the new student council will move towards a new era. I will change the tenure of the president and officers from terms to indefinite so they can serve until graduation. At the sa ti, I will abolish the current restrictions on the number of student council officers. In other words, as long as it is an excellent and necessary person, they can beco a mber of the student council at any ti regardless of the number of slots that are open. In the event that soone is judged unfit for office, I will establish a system of majority vote at the etings for expelling them from their positions. As a starting point, let

make a declaration to the students, teachers, and leaders of the forr student council who are assembled here. The school system of the future... I will destroy all that has been preserved by the previous student councils for the sake of the appearance of the school."

He spoke so forcefully that it seed to negate all the rits of the forr student president who stood behind him.

"I originally wanted to implent this new system imdiately, but unfortunately, I cannot do that. This is because the new student president will be bound by various kinds of constraints upon first taking office."

Nagumo glanced at Horikita, the forr student council president, and then turned back to the students.

"I promise that there will be a great revolution in the near future. Students with strength will climb up to the top and those without strength will fall to the bottom. I will turn this school into a real ritocracy, so please show

what you all can do."

The gymnasium was imdiately silenced by his declaration, but almost all the sophomores soon started screaming with joy and beca rowdy. Maybe there was a battle between the second years and the third years that we didn't know about. It was an event that made

feel that way.
