Classroom of the Elite: All Parts of You (Ayanokōji x Kushida

Chapter 2: Lowest of the Low

I finally reached the dorms that would be my home for the next three years.

After the first floor receptionist gave me a card key for the room 401 and an information manual, I got on the elevator. While flipping through the manual, I saw the time and day for the garbage disposal and a warning to not make too much noise. It also said not to waste water and electricity as much as possible.

'They don't actually have limits on gas and electricity usage, huh...'

I thought that they would subtract from our points automatically.

This school really went through great lengths for the sake of the students.

I was surprised that they implemented coed dorms though. For a school that prohibits relationships between students, the coed dorms felt out of character. In other words, sex was a no-no.

There's no way to believe that such a pampered and easy life can train students to be admirable adults. Something is definitely wrong in this school.

If I think back at the reaction of those upperclassmen when Sudo agreed to being in Class D that was a clear red flag.

There's something wrong with being in Class D.

Now to think about it the classes are arranged from Class A to Class D. Could it be that Class A is where the most capable students are while Class D is the complete opposite?

I mean based on all the clues I've gotten today alone that answer seems almost too obvious. There's also one other thing that doesn't make sense to me. If Class D is really that terrible then what would Hirata Yosuke and Kushida Kikyo be doing here?

Those students seem to be exceptional individuals. I find it hard to believe they belong here.

Well whatever.. I won't get answers right now. I also have no intention of prying too much and drawing unwanted attention to myself. I'll just continue to observe the events in this school as the days progress.

Finally reaching my room I was able to see that it was a pretty adequate living space.. This is my house starting from today. It's also my first time living alone. Until graduation, I would have to live without contacting anyone outside of school.

Unintentionally, I let out a smile.

The school had a high employment rate, and boasted the best facilities and opportunities out of all high schools in Japan.

For me, though, these weren't as important to me. I had one big reason for choosing this school. In middle school, I was forbidden from associating with friends, relatives, and other students.

No chance of past demons getting me here.

I'm free. Freedom. In English that's "freedom". In French it's "liberté".

Isn't freedom the best? I can eat, sleep, and play when I want to. Without having anyone order me around, I can graduate with peace now.

Frankly speaking, before I passed the exam, the result didn't matter to me.

There was only a slight difference between passing and not passing.

However, when the results came out, I was really happy that I got in.

No one can judge me or order me around now.

I can redo... no, start anew. A new start, a new life.

Anyway, I plan to have a fun student life from now on.

Not caring about my uniform, I jumped onto the bed. Feeling far from tired, I tried to calm myself down, looking forward to my future school life.
