"Alright, this spot looks good."
Beginning to set up our base camp, I placed the tent down.
Someone kneeled down next to me.
It was Shinohara.
"Have you decided? Setting up one toilet will limit our use on points going forward."
"Yes, having some time to think was nice, and most, if not all, of us girls would like a proper toilet."
I sighed, standing up, and clapping my hands, gathering everyone's attention.
"Concerns of hygiene, amount of time needed to use the cardboard toilet, whether t-to turn the sheet or get a new one ready, personally, I also agree that we should set up a toilet, h-however, this deducts 20 points from our 300. Remember this. This means that other t-things you will become uncomfortable with may have no solution to solve. I want everyone to confirm with me right now, those of you willing to give up one kind of comfort, for a-another, raise your hand."
Slowly, some hands began to raise in the air, and after seeing others do that, more joined in.
Well... it makes sense I guess.
All it takes is one brave soul to help others express themselves.
Take a revolution, for example. It starts off as a small resistance, but is able to grow in number because the resistance is fighting for the thing that everyone want to say, or do, but dares not to.
Such is the mind of a sheep.
I looked around.
Then again, it is many times better than if everyone here was as intelligent as Sakayanagi is.
If everyone on the world was far more intelligent, it's hard to say what would happen.
However, it wouldn't be unfair to say that things would be peaceful.
If everyone was equal, nothing bad would happen.
That is, until one bad thing happens.
If everyone is the same, everyone would think the same, so if something happens that one of them doesn't know the answer to, the problem will remain unsolved.
It will grow.
Unfortunately, there's no such thing as paradise.
The only way paradise can be achieved, to my knowledge, would be if all of humanity was under rule by a higher being, one which we have no knowledge about.
These higher beings can solve problems for us, and make us think the problem was solved naturally.
We'd be safe, but under control, but we wouldn't know it, so everyone would be living their best life.
But even something like that...
All it takes is one crack in the system, and everything is turned on it's head.
I sighed.
I've noticed it.
That is alike to what is happening in my class right now.
Someone is hiding away in the shadows, carefully guiding us to all of our decisions, and contracting us into working for him, all while we are unaware.
I'm frightened.
This person... I have no doubt he is more powerful than myself.
This person that I was created to protect, or perhaps it was someone else?
I have no proof that person is in my class, for all I know he's not in my grade.
Perhaps, once our spot in class A is secured, I'll try to fight him.
