Ayanokouji POV:

"Everyone, line up in front of me!" Our swimming instructor ordered us all to line up in front of him, while he held his clipboard holding a paper that contains columns .

Everyone lined up as told, I was behind Yamauchi at the back of the line.

"We're going to be holding a swimming competition. We will divide all of you into multiple groups, each being made up of boys and girls separately."

He took a deep breath before speaking again.

"First group for boys, Yōsuke Hirata, Hideo Sotomura, Haruki Yamauchi, and Kiyotaka Ayanokouji."

It seems I was paired with the first group for boys, I was familiar with each individual in our group.

The only relatively athletic male in our group is Hirata, I'll probably adjust my physical settings to the average human male before I get in the water to remove suspicion.

Winning wouldn't really matter since there would be n-

"In the final tournament the first place winner will win 5,000 PP, loser has to retake swimming lessons."

It seems I missed the list of other groups over my brooding but it doesn't matter much.

5,000 PP is quite tempting, I've already garnered over two million but I could possibly gain popularity from winning this race.

I'll look over my decisions once I win the first groups race, for now I'll spectate the rest.

...

Onodera won the girls competition and received 5,000 PP, it wasn't much of a competition because apparently she was already active in the swimming group.

Horikita was keeping up with her which would make sense due to her physique, but it seems she fell short at the last second.

"First boys group, into position."

Me and the first group lined up in front of the pool, Hirata to my right as I was at the far left.

"Good luck Ayanokouji." Hirata nodded to me while giving me a small smile, I nodded my head up and down quickly making him confused.

I saw Horikita at the bench to the left of us watching me, it seems I have at least a small audience to view this victory.

"GO!" The instructor blew the whistle as we all jumped in at once, the water temperature being measured by my skin, 27 C.

My mechanical body was sinking into the water while everyone started racing, I was adjusting to the water without propelling myself which I usually practiced.

It seems the calculations were in place for an average human male, I propelled the strength into my arms and legs and started to swim in standard form, passing everyone including Hirata.

Time went by quite fast once I started swimming, I touched the end and waited for the rest of the group.

Hirata finished second while Yamauchi finished third, leaving them in the tournament while Sotomura complained.

I got out the water and looked at Horikita, she gave me a dissatisfied expression and crossed her arms together.

While the second group was lining up,
I approached Horikita.

"Was my performance acceptable?" I wanted feedback from the only person I'm relatively acquainted with.

"I thought you were drowning at the start, the instructor was very close to hopping in and pulling you out." She smirked at me while taunting my adjusting position.
