Advanced Nurturing High School promises guaranteed success to those who survive its brutal three-year isolation. When Minoru Shirō enters Class B, he plans to coast through quietly - no drama, no complications. Just three peaceful years of minimal effort. But his resolve crumbles when he discovers Ayanokōji Kiyotaka in Class D. Their shared past at the White Room casts a shadow over everything, and despite Shirō's attempts to ignore it, their old rivalry awakens an obsession he can't suppress. Each calculated move by Ayanokōji becomes a siren song, drawing him deeper into the very power plays he swore to avoid. In a system designed to test humanity's worst impulses, his greatest battle isn't against the school - it's resisting the magnetic pull of settling their unfinished game once and for all.

"Simple." "You're a God." "...and you're my little Orchid." Edit: Made it to number two in the classroomoftheelite tag, let's keep it going! Feb 27th, 2023 Edit: Got to number one in Ayanokoji tag 🗿
