Chapter 65: The Manipulator and the Manipulated!

As long as one was distinguished enough throughout the three high school years, they would receive preferential treatment from the school after graduation, regardless of whether they started in Class D or any other class.

Therefore, Yuto had no need to worry about his own future. But... what about Sakura Airi? She wasn't exactly outstanding, was she?

This was why Chabashira Sae believed this bad boy would decide to lead Class D to Class A-all to help Sakura Airi.

Yuto looked at Chabashira Sae, who wore a confident expression, with some surprise. He slowly said, "Chabashira-sensei, I really hate it when people use Airi to threaten me."

Chabashira Sae admired him quite a bit and didn't want him to dislike her, so she hastily explained, "A threat implies using force or power to coerce someone. This is not a threat; I am simply reminding you."

"After all," she continued, "a student like Sakura-san, who isn't as outstanding as you, probably wouldn't receive preferential treatment from the school, would she?"

"That's right." Yuto nodded. "Airi is clumsy, lacks physical strength, and is far too shy. She's a fool whose eyes only see me."

Chabashira Sae's lips twitched. Had this bad boy just shoved a handful of sickeningly sweet dog food into her mouth?

Yuto turned to Chabashira Sae, a faint smile playing on his lips. "But Chabashira-sensei, I don't need to lead Class D to Class A for Airi's sake."

"What do you mean?" A seed of foreboding took root in Chabashira Sae's mind. Could it be that even his childhood friend, Sakura Airi, couldn't influence this bad boy?

"Chabashira-sensei," Yuto continued, his smile widening. "As far as I know, one can transfer a student to another class simply by amassing twenty million points."

Chabashira Sae's eyes widened slightly. In an instant, she understood Yuto's plan.

"Before graduation, I just need to spend twenty million points to transfer Sakura Airi to Class A. Then she'll be able to enjoy the school's preferential treatment."

"..." Chabashira Sae fell silent.

Ah, he's right. There's no flaw in his logic!

"Though twenty million points seems like an impossible amount to earn," Yuto said, a confident grin spreading across his handsome face, "I have both the confidence and the ability to raise that much."

Chabashira Sae found herself nodding instinctively. She believed it too.

Twenty million points was an astronomical sum-almost no student could earn that much through normal means.

But Shimizu Yuto was an anomaly!

On his first day of school, this delinquent had amassed over eight million points from various sources!

Last night, however, he'd blown seven million two hundred thousand of them in one go, purchasing the three-year lease on a private apartment. Now he was down to just over eight hundred ninety thousand.

But so what?

This bad boy had earned over eight million points in a single day using his wit, cunning, strength, and sheer audacity.

And there were still over a thousand days left in high school!

Yuto had plenty of time to earn the twenty million points needed to transfer Airi to Class A!

As incredible as it seemed, Chabashira Sae believed that if Yuto set his mind to it, he could easily amass twenty million points.

Suddenly, an idea struck the already bewildered Chabashira Sae. She quickly interjected, "Shimizu, anything can happen at this school. What if you can't gather twenty million points? Wouldn't that be a problem?"
