COTE: A Man On A Mission || Love is War?

“Then, you please become the Student council president first. I will vote for Sakayanagi.”

“....” Nagumo.

”You” is definitely a respectful title, but Nagumo has already noticed that people who like to use this kind of word usually look down on other people by deliberately giving them fake respect.

Already experienced this from Arisu Sakayanagi.

’Now, Hikigaya uses this name, so are these two actually same person?’ Nagumo was in a bad mood, because he suddenly felt that judging from their similar personalities, Hikigaya Hachiman and Sakayanagi Arisu were a perfect match, so they were a perfect couple.

It makes people jealous and envious.

“You will see this scene, and President Horikita will probably be forced to resign soon!”

Hachiman yawned at his face.

“Tsk...His class A will drop to B, and in order to graduate in class A, he should accept my help to return, and the price is his resignation and the remaining 30 votes of 3rd grade!”

“You will be expelled Nagumo Miyabi, don’t say I didn’t warn you.....”

“who said that?! Show me your face!” Nagumo is about to spit blood, when he finds no one in crowd daring to meet his eyes, so he turns to Hachiman again.

“And because of family crisis, your class’s votes will also fall on me. Because President Horikita’s sister is in your class!”

”And President Horikita has been very kind to you, so you won’t just watch him fall like that, right?”

“Add the votes from Ichinose’s class together. So, I, Nagumo Miyabi, is the winner...hahah!”

“....” Hachiman felt that he saw the shadow of Ryuen in background. ’Although I think I may not be able to record any useful information, I’ll still do it first.....’

“???” Ryuen....’Fuck this guy....’

Then Hachiman put his left hand into his pocket.

Pressed it.

“You mean, in this exam, you are going to push Horikita Manabu down from Class A?”

“???” Nagumo felt like a bigger person for a second, he was getting a live interview, “Yes, And he is sure to lose! I am not afraid to tell you that I can control all 2nd-year students. In order to make ends meet, bastards in Class C and D are completely at my mercy. In order to maintain the status of A, all Non playable characters in class also obey me. However, I also promoted Class B in the 3rd year. Otherwise, how do you think a group of bots can keep chasing after Horikita Manabu? Now scores of two classes are only 400 points apart because of me!”

You’re the one behind all this.

“It was Nagumo Miyabi’s shadow you were chasing all along!”

“Horikita-senpai doesn’t just have to fight against 3rd years, he also has to make a wall for potential rivals who are the same age as my second years.”

In this way, score of exam will be determined according to the comprehensive score of large group.

Horikita Manabu can make his group excellent, but he cannot control the second-year students.

Therefore, if all the 2nd-year students fall behind, score of large group will definitely drop, and may even be very bad.

So, in this case, Horikita Manabu’s team might be the last one, and even be expelled, and he is the leader of 3rd-year students in Group!

Then he will be expelled!

Even if he does not drop out, the class will have to bear a deduction of 300+ points, and he will also lose 20 million to avoid being expelled.

“Vice President Nagumo, aren’t you worried that you will be held accountable for interfering in other grades’ exams so forcefully?”

???

“Haha, it’s true that President Horikita called me over for a talk, but now the situation is urgent, who gives a fuck about this? hahah.”

’You should never look down on hungry vultures lurking around....’ Hachiman thought to himself.

“Then 1st place——”

Teacher Hoshinomiya had already begun announcing the results.

Although it was her first time standing there as a representative of Class A’s teachers, she turned around and looked at Chabashira.

Sae’s class was promoted to A, but did not have the right to speak in public.

’....And does Sae-chan envy or miss her Class A now?’

No.

???

Hoshinomiya only saw Chabashira talking to a second-year female homeroom teacher, and didn’t pay any kind of attention to her.

Snort! Hmph!

Chie angrily fulfilled her duties as the homeroom teacher of Class A.

Announce results of the examination.

“The Group of the third-year leader, Manabu Horikita, 2nd-year leader, Sakagami, and 1st-year leader, Komiya, won first place.

Each student will receive 10,000 private points, and class evaluation score will be increased by 3.

The rewards for class with a leader are superimposed.

Each student in third-year class A will receive 1X (15/10) X2X2 = 60,000 private points, and class evaluation score will be increased by 3X (15/10) X2X2X14 = 252 points.”

.....Hearing this result, Hachiman looked at Nagumo with a subtle gaze, “Didn’t you say that he is definitely going to lose? Horikita-nii got first place....”

“• •” Nagumo....’The fuck....’

The group that Horikita Manabu was in won first place.

Manabu’s class received a class evaluation score of 252 points, and the 14 third-year Class A students in his group received a total of 840,000 private points.

This is 3rd grade, and there are more classes participating in second, including ABCD.

The same is true for 1st grade, including ABCD, and then extra points were given to each.

“hehe--” Even though Nagumo showed a surprised expression, but he smiled the next second, “Do you want to see me surprised? In fact, I already knew about this result.”

“Hikigaya-kun, I used to think you were amazing, but I had a very thorough plan, and fact that you showed this expression shows you didn’t see through it at all.”

“I want 3rd year class A to fall in this exam, so it’s whole group, and President Horikita is already very strong, and then he armed his own and made it win first place, so this is not surprising at all.”

“So, didn’t you notice that in Horikita Manabu’s group, I arranged 15 second-year students from all four classes, ABCD. So by comparison, my dogs got more points than him. So I’m actually taking advantage.”

In other words, does this guy Nagumo actually did to arrange for his people to earn points for free?

This cannot be denied.

Because Horikita Manabu only joined two classes in third grade, there were 14 people of A and one person of C.

So extra points can only be doubled.

But Nagumo’s side has 4 classes, so overall, bonus points will be 4 times.

In other words, the second-year students got the lowest 3X (15/10) X4X15 = 270 points, and the total is 1X (15/10) X4X15 = 900,000 private points.

This does not include situation where person in charge doubles the points.

Nagumo was in control of the entire second grade.

No matter how many points any class got, the points had to be redistributed with his nod.

Therefore, for Nagumo, every time there is a school exam, he does not need to consider how to compete with other classes, but how to get more points from the school.

So, thinking in this way, Nagumo has already skipped individual exam.

What a scary man.

Uh...Chi was very angry right now, but she did her best to remain cheerful.

“Now I’m announcing the 2nd place.

3rd-year leader.....Random

2nd year leader, Nagumo Miyabi

1st year leader, Tokito.

Each student can get private points and the class evaluation score will be +1.

Rewards for class with a leader are combined.”

This is Nagumo’s team.

He gained points again because he finished second.

1X (15/10) X4X15 = 90 points, total is (15/10) X4X15 = 450,000 personal points.

Next was 3rd place, but it was not the group that Hachiman was in.

Although Hirata-kun had high hopes for them, unfortunately they only got fifth place.

There were a total of 12 groups, including 6 male and 6 female, so once the top three passed, remaining 4-9 places would receive no rewards or penalties.

Then it depends on final three.

“If I’m not mistaken—Reason you mentioned that President Horikita’s Class A fell is because--”

“Now your brain understood,” Nagumo did not hide it, because this kind of thing will be known to everyone later, “Group that President Horikita’s classmate, secretary of the Student Council, Akane Tachibana, belongs to will be the last one!”

So it can be said that Secretary had indeed failed her one job.

Did not tell Horikita Manabu that she was being targeted and bullied, so Manabu only had information about the boys, and did not consider that Nagumo was actually targeting girls!

Whatever he said about making a bet with him was just a cover, Nagumo just wanted to hide the real target he wanted to attack - Bun-haired girl in Class A of 3rd grade.

.....This girl has become a burden that drags down entire 3rd-grade Class A.

A terrifying atmosphere appeared.

Because rankings of two boys’ groups of 3rd-year Class A boys have already come out, Horikita Manabu is in first place, and other six boys are in seventh place.

Although results are not very good, at least there is no punishment.

As rankings of the middle groups were continuously announced, 14 groups of girls from Class 3A ranked fourth, but they found that group of Secretary Tachibana Akane from Class 3-A had not been announced yet.

Could it be that Nagumo betrayed the bet and involved innocent people?

No, this is very likely, because temptation to let Class 3-A fail is too great, so it is possible that Nagumo will target Tachibana Akane and others.

“I think I am... getting a bit older....Eto...9th place will be announced now...jeez.”

9th place is from other groups, and Secretary Tachibana Akane’s has not been announced yet.

“Now I will announce second to last place.....”

”hehe--”

Because he was well prepared, the composition of group that Akane Tachibana was in was as follows.

Grade 3: 6 students in Class 3-A and 9 students in Class 3-B.

Grade 2: 5 students in Class 2-B and 5 students in Class 2-C.

Grade 1: 6 students in Class 1-A, 2 students in Class 1-B, and 3 from 1-D.

Here, all nine students from Class B of 3rd grade would lag behind, forcing the overall level of their group to decline.

Not only that, it would be unsafe.

So Nagumo Miyabi ordered that all 10 students from 2nd grade to lag behind!

In other words, there are 19 people in Tachibana’s group who are dragging their feet!

In this case, it would be a miracle if group didn’t come last.

Here, if Akane Tachibana is last in the group, as person in charge, who can force one person to expel from school, even someone from Class 3-B, but unfortunately, student from Class 3-B is already prepared to be expelled.

At the same time, if he helped so much, wouldn’t second grade students here also be expelled?

It doesn’t matter here, because he can use 20 million points to prevent drop out and revive, and cost will be paid by Class 3-B.

It can be said that Class B of Grade 3 invested a lot.

Even if means sacrificing one of their classmates and losing 20 million accumulated over several months, they will still launch a final attack.

As for Nagumo, Horikita Manabu suffered a huge loss.

Not only was his points deducted, but he also didn’t want Tachibana Akane to drop out, so had to spend all his accumulated points.

Therefore, Class A in Grade 3 was completely at a disadvantage.

Then Horikita Manabu will definitely bow to him for the sake of his classmates to graduate as Class A.

In this way, combined with what he just said to Hikigaya Hachiman, he can obtain the position of student council president.

Once he becomes President, what else is impossible?

Nagumo doesn’t believe in that guy’s curse on his future. ’This is your failure, Sakayanagi.....’

Nagumo looked at Hikigaya without mercy, at this junior who had been a bad boy in his 1st year, but now looked handsome and capable with glasses.

“Hikigaya Hachiman, just watch.”

“I won this exam.....”
