After getting back, Kaoru washed his hands and planned to check out his rewards. There were still two wish rewards he hadn't claimed yet:
"Join the student council" and "Ehehe, I want to experience what it feels like to touch senpai hand."
"Drawing the corresponding rewards... "
"Congratulations, you've received the reward—'Magic Tool'!
"Magic Tool"
Can transform into whatever tool the user currently needs, with a level of technology matching that of civilian tools available on the market.
"Congratulations, you've received the reward—'Dexterous Finger Technique'!"
...
The rewards from the Wishing Machine are as stingy and baffling as ever. The first one makes sense, but what's with this dexterity thing?
"Dexterous Finger Technique,"
and suddenly, some new knowledge popped into his mind, leaving him a bit stunned. So that's how this works?
He studied it for a while, then quickly pulled himself together. After draining Nagumo Personal points, it's time to start getting some rewards. As for who the next target is?
Of course, you start with the dumbest one first.
....
The next day at noon.
"Even though it's a bit late now, Mitoma-kun, do you feel happy after becoming the vice president?"
Sakayanagi Arisu rarely showed up in the student cafeteria, sitting elegantly across from Kaoru.
"Not really, unless you come over and be my underling." Kaoru sounded a bit disappointed.
She was sitting right across from him, and he couldn't even see her white stockings, so there was no way she'd stretch her leg out to step on him.
Meanwhile, Kamuro Masumi was next to him, head down and focused on eating, completely unfazed by anyone's gaze. But Kaoru didn't really get why she chose to sit next to him instead of across from him like Sakayanagi Arisu.
"Seeing you actually putting in effort, I can't help but feel relieved. I was worried you might just be teasing me on purpose, when in reality you only like to laugh and joke with girls."
Isn't your weird misunderstanding a bit of a problem?
"Actually, I've heard a bit about what you've been up to lately, but I don't think you can pull it off."
Kaoru expression turned odd. He had a vague idea of what Sakayanagi Arisu was about to say.
"First off, your contract has some loopholes. I don't know how you got the third-years to agree to it, but as a personal suggestion, you'd better fix that."
As she spoke, Sakayanagi Arisu expression grew serious.
"I don't want to see you go down the wrong path. Maybe you don't fully understand this school bottom line yet, but I can tell you're very serious about this, if something serious happens, the school will step in directly."
Normally, disputes between students are handled by the student council, unless it's something really bad—then the school gets involved. Like that scam incident before, which was obviously beyond what the student council could handle. In the end, the school expelled the student.
Sakayanagi Arisu thought Kaoru might be getting impatient. This kind of thing definitely has a big impact, especially since it involves the student council own reputation. If it gets serious, expulsion wouldn't be out of the question.
However, Kaoru expression just got even weirder. Seeing this, Sakayanagi Arisu frowned, a little displeased.
"Do you really think you can keep this hidden until graduation, and that the school will take your side?"
Nagumo had come to the student council alone, and at the time, there were only a few of them in the council. The news wouldn't spread too quickly—after all, it was Nagumo who got the short end of the stick, so he might even try to downplay the whole thing.
Besides, Horikita Manabu and him were planning to stop exchanging personal points anyway. The whole point of this plan was just to make Nagumo lose once, to shake his influence. Not to mention, his yen was already completely spent.
It would probably take a few days for the news to get out, depending on how Horikita Manabu decided to handle it. That's why Sakayanagi Arisu was still stuck on the previous version of events. And at that moment, Kaoru finally realized why Sakayanagi Arisu had invited him to eat together back then—it was to talk about this.
No wonder she seemed a little annoyed when he turned her down. Kaoru silently took out his phone, opened his personal system, and then turned the balance page to show her.
"Six million and ninety thousand... Are you trying to show off your achievements to me?"
Sakayanagi Arisu looked even more displeased.
"Don't you have anything you want to say to me?"
She didn't care about these personal points at all; what she cared about was Kaoru explanation. But right next to them, Kamuro Masumi almost choked when she heard that number. What the hell, while she's still riding a bicycle, the guy next door is already driving a BMW?!
"You might have a bit of a misunderstanding about me. What you said just now isn't exactly wrong, but I need to clarify something," Kaoru said.
"Actually, half of these personal points were specially prepared for me by my most respected senpai."
Hearing this, a question mark seemed to pop up over Sakayanagi Arisu little head. Even Kamuro Masumi was looking at him with a face full of doubt—what kind of respected senpai could this guy possibly have?
Seeing the looks on their faces, Kaoru felt a bit exasperated. How could he let his most respected Nagumo-senpai be doubted like this?
So, he patiently told the two of them everything.
"I could never repay what Nagumo-senpai has done for me, not in a lifetime. I plan to properly return the favor in the future." Kaoru said this with a straight face, not the least bit embarrassed, even though just yesterday he'd taken the chance to get a feel of his childhood friend.
Sakayanagi Arisu fell silent. She'd thought Kaoru was playing with fire, but it turned out his ambitions were much greater—he didn't need to scam anyone, he was just inviting them into his own trap. If it were her, if she hadn't thought things through carefully, she'd probably have jumped right in herself.
Because she knew her own personality well. Once she saw through the problems in the contract, she'd probably start to look down on Kaoru, even if just a little. If she wasn't familiar with Kaoru abilities, she really might have gone in with some inexplicable confidence and boldly taken the bait.
"What do you need so many private points for?" Kamuro Masumi thoughts weren't as complicated as Sakayanagi Arisu. She just saw Suzuki Toru's six million.
"Kamuro-san, if I were willing to pay you a million, would you be willing to do what I ask?" Masumi Kamuro suddenly became alert and kept a certain distance from him.
"You'd better explain what you want first."
"Like the thing I mentioned to you last time."
Masumi Kamuro thought for a while before finally remembering that he had once asked her to look at her panties.
"Even if you gave me ten million, I wouldn't do it!"
"What about twenty million?" Kaoru Mitoma tried to solve it with personal points.
Masumi Kamuro was speechless.
"Do you believe I wont kick you to death?"
"What if it's twenty million personal points, and I threaten you too?"
"Would that get you to agree?"
Masumi Kamuro was dumbfounded. Was this guy a little too obsessed with her?
She was about to refuse him, but suddenly changed her mind. Masumi Kamuro winked at him.
"Alright, beg me, and I'll give you what you want."
