Reincarnated into Classroom of TheReader Elite: Cote x

Kushida popularity decline,

Previously, I have refused every invitation from girls. This was done to create an image that would help me in my plan.

But today, I accepted the invitation of the second most popular girl.
Wanna guess who it is?
Play the drums.

Kushida.
Yes, Kushida is the second most popular girl in class.

Who is first?
Wanna make another guess?
Raphael Liebert.

I could just imagine the fury in Kushida's heart.

I would get one of the puppets.
But unlike Horikita.

I can't trust Kushida
Breaking Kushida would provide benefits but would be too time-consuming.

My research has finally taken shape.

Someone might think that I am impatient. But if look from my perspective everything makes sense.

I do not know how and why I came to this world.

I don't know if this change is permanent or temporary.
If the soul exists then,

Where did the Og owner's 'soul' go?

What would happen to my soul if Og owner's soul return?

And how can I use it for my benefit?

There are too many restrictions.

This has caused me to sleep only for four hours a day.

By the way, I invited Horikita too.

She would probably reject my offer.

"What a pleasant surprise, Horikita-San"

It was a surprise.
Horikita snorted and said in a cold voice," I am not here for the party but to discuss what you wrote in your message."

"Of course, of course, but first let's meet Kushida and others"

Horikita's eyes widened and she once again glared at me.

"What do you mean about 'Kushida and others'?"

Hmm.

"Oh! You don't know? We are having a meeting to discuss the money system in this school."

"What? Don't lie to me"

"Oh, I am not. There they are! "

I waved at her and called out, "Kushida-San".

Horikita snorted and glared at me, "Did you think I would fall for that?"

"Nah, we are going to meet and talk about points."

Horikita scoffed and stayed silent before moving behind my back.

"Raphael-San, It seems we made you wait."

Horikita was quick to answer but I cut her off.

"Ye-"

"No, We have just arrived here."

Horikita once again glared at my back.

Why does she even do that?

I mean half of her screen time is about glaring.

"I, I see. What a relief"

For some moments Kushida didn't know how to reply to Horikita.

"Good evening to you Horikita"
Kushida tried to shake Horikita's hand.
Horikita thought for a second and took her hand.

"Right now we are just wasting time. We have to start discussing the point system."

"I understand, Horikita-San."

"Why are you alone, Kushida-San? I thought there will be more girls."

Kushida smiled and said," I thought Horikita-San would have felt uncomfortable with so many people around. D, don't worry I will tell them all the things we discussed today."

Third person Pov:-

Killing intent surged Raphael's heart but she quickly shook it off.
In her previous life, she was not this emotional.
Her emotions were controlled by her but after her transmigration,n she started to feel more.
Maybe it's related to this body...

Raphael scowled in her heart but smiled outside.
"I can be relieved"
She felt like Kushida has become smarter than in anime.
Right now, the reason she has not called any o her friends is so that she could control information.
Even if she told any of her friends something wrong then she could apologize and act like she is the victim.

A cute girl crying and begging for help?

In this world, it is normal for people to favour the pretty and hate the ugly.

This was one of the situations expected my Raphael.
There were two choices for Kushida.
One was to make her image better and another was to make Horikita's image worse.
Raphael knew that If she was not with Horikita then Kushida would have chosen the second option.
Why she did not choose second now?

Because it would have increased Raphael's image.

The reason Horikita agreed to Raphael is not because she has become softer but because Raphael has mentioned the point system.
Horikita was already suspicious and when Raphael mentioned points she had no choice but to comply.
