Classroom of the Elite

Prologue

I had always believed that it was all okay to be alone. Being alone gave me a feeling of independence. Since childhood, I had put a lot of effort into my studies and sports. And I know that I am better than average in both regards. As long as I have the skills in me, I would be able to live without relying on anyone else. That's what I used to think.

But after enrolling in this school, I have slowly and surely come to understand that there are times when you can't do everything on your own. There are times when you need to rely on others or in simpler terms rely on a friend.

Even after enrolling in this school, I behaved indifferently and tried to do everything on my own, without relying on others. But this school has taught me that there are some things that you can't do alone. If you work along with others, you are sure to achieve what you couldn't alone.

In the various special tests that I have undergone, I have come to understand how necessary teamwork is.

So, now I have decided to throw away that notion. I will throw away the notion that I can do everything on my own and work together with everyone. I am sure if you all manage to work together we will surely be able to reach Class A until graduation. 

 But I have a huge obstacle to overcome in order to realize this dream,

Kushida Kikyou

A figure of benevolence for both boys and girls. She is popular and trusted by every one of her friends and she tries to do anything she can for her friends.

But for a very very stupid reason, she hates me. Just because I happened to attend the same middle school as her, she assumed that I knew about her past and she wanted to expel me to ensure that there was no one that knew about her past.

Honestly, I was more of a loner in middle school than I am here and I didn't even know her. I just happened to hear that a certain class was broken apart due to some reasons and I didn't care about it, to begin with.

I have told her many times that I knew nothing about it but no matter what I couldn't get my point across. 

But now, things are different. She has told me about her past. And now since I know that, she will do everything she can to expel me. No matter what, she won't be giving up.

But I won't give up as well. I will try as many times as I can to win her over. If I want our class to reach Class A as a whole, she will definitely be a key player. So, I can't afford her to always remain on my bad side which may result in the downfall of the whole class. I know that. I know that she would do anything as long as it means that she could expel me.

As Ayanokoji-kun had said expelling her was also an option but I had declined that immediately. I know that she is an integral component of Class D and I couldn't afford to lose any students from our class. 

So, to make my dream of graduating from Class A come true, I will convince Kushida no matter what.

I was dead set on this.

There was another reason why I was so fixated on this matter.

Once when Ayanokoji-kun had told me that he would expel Kushida, I had stopped him. And I gad also assured him that I would handle the matter with Kushida on my own.

So, after saying that to him there was no way I could back down.

If I couldn't even manage to do this, how would I ever be able to be acknowledged by him?

Yes, winning over Kushida would be one of my ways to prove my worth to him and it will be another step for me towards getting acknowledged by him.

Note:

Hello everyone, Kinugasa here. Sorry for the wait. I have already said that this will be a full novel, but honestly, I don't know how it would turn out to be. I racked my brain to come up with something but man it was so so difficult. After trying to think hard for a whole night, I managed to think of something. I know that I am nowhere near the level of the legendary Syougo-sensei but I think it's pretty decent. (Yes, pretty decent, I guess). Hope you all would stick along with me and see through the end of this!!
