Arisu officially started the conversation.
"You want to be elected Student Council President?"
Ryunosuke nodded, acknowledging it.
"That's right, I indeed want to occupy the position of Student Council President, so I must make preparations early."
"How about it? Are you willing to agree?"
"As long as you promise me, when the Student Council President election comes later, all of Class B's votes are given to me, then these points don't need to be returned."
His small plan was very simple.
The Student Council President election started two months before graduation, which meant ten months after entering school. Currently there were still three months left. In other words, they entered in April, and the election would start in February next year.
He had to prepare himself early to face Nagumo, while squeezing the last value from that man. He estimated that by that time, Nagumo must have already accumulated many points to fight Manabu.
When that time came, he would bet with him for the position of Student Council President. Whoever lost had to hand over all their points. That way, the 120 million debt he had outside could almost be paid off.
Nagumo wanted to fight Manabu, so his points must be no less than 40 million. Plus, after Manabu graduated, his 20 million plus personal points would also become Ryunosuke's. Combined with the 70 million in his hands now, that was already enough to pay off the debt, there might even be leftovers...
Arisu didn't know Ryunosuke's detailed plan and small intentions. She only considered the profit and loss. What was the benefit for her to help him fight for the Student Council President position?
What benefits could she gain?
Arisu didn't think long before giving an answer. She tapped her cane lightly, her large purple eyes emitting an intelligent glint, staring at him without blinking.
"I can accept your proposal, but I have one condition." Arisu wagged her finger.
Ryunosuke of course knew it wouldn't be that easy, so he gave leeway. "Fine, just propose it."
Arisu showed a satisfied smile and nodded slightly. "You owe me one favor. When I need you, you must help me unconditionally."
Ryunosuke was stunned hearing it. Why did this move feel so familiar? Damn! Wasn't this the move he usually used?
Arisu grinned cunningly because she knew Ryunosuke would definitely agree. If that man wanted to be elected Student Council President, he couldn't lose support from Class B.
Arisu waited for her opponent's answer patiently.
Ryunosuke resigned and was forced to nod in agreement, but he added a slight limitation. "Only things I'm capable of doing, and they can't go against my wishes."
"Fine, deal reached." Arisu extended her hand, signaling she wanted to shake hands. Ryunosuke welcomed it without hesitation, completing the transaction.
At this moment, Kohei approached Asuna's ear and reminded.
"Fukudancho-dono, don't you want to take this opportunity to propose a condition as well? If not, our side is too disadvantaged."
Asuna pretended to think, she didn't immediately react when called "Fukudancho". Kohei was actually being a bit mischievous; he felt the title Vice Commander suited Asuna very well, so he called her that.
Since that time, Class B people got used to calling Asuna "Fukudancho" because she indeed had an aura like a knight commander.
Asuna didn't think too long and immediately made a decision. After all, she didn't want anything. What she wanted—like that club application at that time—had already been settled by Ryunosuke. Consider this as returning the favor, helping him once for free.
Seeing this matter settled easily, Ryunosuke breathed a sigh of relief. He was already prepared if they would ask for big compensation, fortunately these two girls weren't that type of person. Just one condition, not a big problem.
He firmly transferred 4 million personal points to them. The other party said that 4 million points were already enough to cover their loss gap. Ryunosuke looked at the balance on his phone; now only a bit over 70 million remained.
Since earning large amounts of points, his expenses were indeed getting bigger. Even though his own lifestyle remained very frugal; eating instant noodles, consuming the cheapest food costing a few hundred yen, even going to the free food counter. However, when he needed to spend money, he wouldn't hesitate. After all, these points were spent for strategic interests that he could later earn back, so he wasn't in a hurry.
After the transaction was completed, Class B people prepared to leave. Ryunosuke also intended to return, but he saw in one corner of the wall there was a girl who kept peeking at him; it was Yamamura Miki.
Ryunosuke smiled thinly and walked toward her.
Miki, hiding behind the wall, saw herself caught, immediately lowered her head quickly, not knowing what to say...
Ryunosuke arrived in front of her and asked, "Have the candies I gave last time run out?"
Miki nodded hesitantly without daring to speak. Her hands squeezed the edge of her skirt tightly, clearly she was uneasy. She herself didn't know why, since the ship exam when this man gave her candy, she kept thinking about him. That was the reason why she was observing him from behind the wall.
And the result was, she was caught.
Seeing that, Ryunosuke didn't ask further. He took out candy from his pocket, forcibly put it in Miki's hand, and teased her.
"If you like eating candy, you can come to me anytime to get it. Candy at my place is free." Ryunosuke said while smiling broadly. He indeed had an interest in this girl, meaning as a "tool".
Miki looked at the candy in her hand confusedly and hurriedly refused. "This candy.... I can't accept it!"
Without much talk, Ryunosuke unwrapped a candy and forcibly put it into the girl's mouth. His finger even briefly touched a bit of saliva on Miki's lips.
*BOOM!*
Miki's face immediately turned completely red, hot steam seemed to come out of her head.
Ryunosuke didn't care, he waved his hand then looked at the saliva on his finger and licked it in front of the girl.
"Hmm... pretty sweet."
*THUD!*
Miki immediately fell prone and fainted on the spot with spinning eyes.
Masumi, who realized her troop was missing one person, returned to look. She coincidentally saw this scene and walked closer angrily. She pulled Ryunosuke's collar, lifted him, and shouted.
"You bastard, did you do that on purpose?!"
"Look what you did to Yamamura?!"
Ryunosuke raised his hand tremblingly. "Sorry, I'm already used to it, it was reflexive earlier..."
"What do you mean 'used to it'?!!!"
"Has teasing girls become your habit?! You trash!"
Without much talk, Masumi threw Ryunosuke until he was sent flying several meters. Her strength was clearly not small. Her chest rose and fell from anger; she herself didn't know why she could be this emotional.
Ryunosuke, who was thrown, rubbed his sore bottom. "Violent woman!"
"What did you say?!" Masumi walked closer with a threatening aura.
Ryunosuke jolted in shock and immediately fled at lightning speed. Masumi's strength was really big, how did she train?
Seeing he had already fled, Masumi didn't chase him. She shouldered the unconscious Miki and prepared to take her back.
Miki's eyes were still spinning; clearly the earlier stimulation was too much for her. That could be said to be an indirect kiss.
