CHAPTER 4 - Preparations.

(Pov - Saik.)

People gather to see the results board outside the school. Well, well. How many people are there in this place? I estimate there are about 400 people, maybe more. And did all of them pay for the entrance exam? I hope they don't actually steal the money and use it to improve public schools.

I hate it when the rich steal money to become even richer.

Let's see... There's a list, from 1 to 100. If 400 people took the entrance exam, that means only 1/4 managed to get in.

"Father, I did it," said a girl next to me who is also looking at the board.

I glanced at her because I heard a sob coming from her.

She's crying... Well, well. Was she afraid of failing and making her father angry? No, those tears are of pride and happiness, not relief. She probably wants to make her father proud.

Yes, I understand, random girl. If I had taken this exam on my own and without cheating, I would also cry from happiness. But I cheated, so I'm not yet able to say that I succeeded. I can only say I've fulfilled my promise when I can be the best without cheating.

Oh, that man behind her is crying too... I see.

Hey, random girl, don't worry. You've made your late father proud... I wish I could say the same.

"Well, well. That girl has big breasts. Hehe. Don't you like that, Saik?"

Ignoring Yuki pretending to grope that girl's breasts, I looked for my name on the list. I should be first or second.

Ram got two questions wrong, so I should be first because Number 2 helped me by correcting the exam.

Let's see... Yes, I'm first.

Saik Norsai - 27282937dhd7282 - 1 - Class 1-B.

My name, registration number, position, and the class I've been assigned to.

I wish they had put my score, you know, to boast about an achievement I got through cheating, but an achievement is an achievement. Besides, that would help restore some of the reputation my family name lost because of me. Beating up the rich kids who used to mock me gave me a bad reputation.

Anyway, I'm in the first place, and Ram, the girl we copied most of the answers from, is second and in my class.

Why did they put us in Class B? Isn't Class A the best? I guess it doesn't matter.

I moved away from the crowd.

Some people are crying because they failed. Why are they crying? They have plenty of options. Seriously, I don't understand what makes this school so special, aside from teaching humility to students.

I should have researched it more, but I can't be bothered. I've already gotten in, there's no turning back now. I'll go pick up my papers and pay for the three years.

Yuki stayed behind, looking at the people, or rather, looking at the women. Is she still going with her plan to find me a girlfriend or friends? Unnecessary. I don't need a girlfriend, let alone friends. They won't do me any good; they'll just be distractions.

"Saik!!"

This random guy again?

The fat guy I saw during the entrance exam grabbed my shirt collar, looking at me angrily.

"What's the matter?"

"What kind of cheat did you use?! It's impossible for an idiot like you to get first place!!"

Ah, now everyone's looking at me, and the criticism toward me begins.

The usual stuff I've always heard: "Is that scruffy guy the first place?" They're mainly criticizing my appearance for hiding my eyes with my hair.

Ah, what a nuisance.

"Look, I'll warn you once, just once. Stay away from me, pig, or you'll be without children. You disgust me."

"I've always been better than you!! Why did I fail and you didn't?! You definitely cheated, you miserable..."

... He shouted so close to my face that his saliva landed on me. Disgusting.

Well, I don't want witnesses. It might jeopardize my entry into the school.

Mmm. Let's see... Well, I came up with something.

I recognized the bodyguard of this idiot and approached him, dragging this idiot by the ear with me.

He tries to push me and hits me, attempting to make me let go, but his punches are weak, they don't hurt me at all. Pathetic.

"I'd like you to take us to a discreet place. I'd like to talk to him privately."

"Alright."

"What do you mean 'alright'?! Don't listen to him, idiots!"

"Your father said that if you got into trouble with Saik, you should handle it yourself. You're no longer a child, sir. Don't behave like one."

Well, well. This idiot has a good father. My respects, sir.

Amid tantrums and struggles, I forced him into the limousine, and we were taken to an old abandoned factory. On the way, this idiot scratched my arm, which was holding onto his ear, and even drew blood, but he'll soon regret doing that to me.

I pulled him out of the limousine and stretched my arms.

"Are there security cameras?"

"No."

"Perfect. You tell your boss that his son earned this."

"Tsk. Shut up, you're nobody to...!" the fat guy said, but I didn't pay him any more attention.

Blah, blah, blah. What a bother.

I clenched my fist and hit him so hard in the groin that a loud scream escaped him.

Nah, that's not enough.

I kneed him in his massive belly, knocking the wind out of him, and he vomited. Fortunately, I managed to move away, but when he stopped vomiting, I kicked him in the face, leaving him suffering on the ground. He didn't faint, but it would have been better, sparing him the suffering he's feeling.

Feeling his testicles as if they had exploded, the stomach pain, and his broken nose.

Yes, this will do.

"Well, I'm off. I'm leaving him to you."

I started running back to the school.

Ah, this idiot wasted my time. I hope I don't worry Yuki; she was watching the women.

After running for 15 minutes, I returned to the school and saw Yuki still observing the people, or rather, observing the women in detail, as if analyzing them, searching for the best options.

Ah, Yuki, that's unnecessary, but since I see that it entertains you so much that you didn't even notice I went off with that fat guy to beat him up in private, I won't say anything about it, at least not today.

I entered the school and looked at the map at the entrance to find my classroom.

The school consists of six main areas. The administrative building, the first, second, and third-year buildings, the cafeteria, and the club rooms. They also have a swimming pool, sports areas, a soccer field, basketball court, tennis court, and running track. Is that what it's called? No idea.

The place is quite extensive, but it still doesn't seem like a school for millionaires to me.

Anyway, whatever.

I reached my new classroom, where we'll receive our papers and get to know our classmates. The latter is optional; I'll leave after receiving the papers.

I entered the classroom and only glanced at the people inside.

The girl who cried for her father and other random people I'm not interested in. That girl's ghostly father is here too, behind her. He looks like an intellectual man, and the emblem on his suit is the same as the teacher's. Was he a teacher at this school? Most likely.

Well, well. That blonde girl with the cleavage looks like a slut, no offense, but she does. I can see her large breasts and her red bra, in addition to her overly short skirt. Well, well. It's true what they say about not judging a book by its cover. She passed the entrance exam; she must be intelligent.

I approached the teacher.

"Are you handing out the papers?"

"Yes. Your name?"

"Saik Norsai."

"Oh, the first place. Congratulations."

She handed me an envelope with the school's emblem on it, consisting of two white hands shaking hands with the black cursive letter "R" in the background.

"Can I leave now?"

"There's a small celebration for those who passed the admission exam. Don't you want to stay? The bus will arrive in 20 minutes. It will be at the restaurant..."

I interrupted her, as I'd already lost too much valuable time.

"No, thank you. Goodbye."

Without wasting any more time, I left the classroom with the envelope in hand.

Ah, what a hassle to stay at a party with people I don't know.

"Hey, wait!"

Ah, what a nuisance. What now? I want to get home and celebrate with Yuki.

I stopped and turned around to see the guy who was shouting at me.

A guy stopped in front of me.

Glasses with very high prescription, very overweight, brown hair... No, I don't know him. What does he want from me? Some diet advice? Is he going to ask me to train him to lose weight? What a bother, but I feel sorry for him. Well, the main reason I'll help him is so that he owes me a favor. He's rich; I'll probably need his help someday. I'll recommend some easy exercises for him to do and advise him to see a nutrition specialist since he needs a personalized diet.

"What do you want? I'm in a hurry."

"Here, the teacher asked me to give this to you."

A box of chocolates?

"For me?"

"I think she's giving them to all of us."

"I see."

I took the box.

"Thank her for me."

"Sure, no problem."

I continued on my way.

Let's see...

An overweight guy, a potential easy girl, girls and guys with normal appearances, a sensitive girl, Ram (though she wasn't in the classroom).

Mmm... Well, I guess I can have a normal school life. Everyone seems so normal, except for that girl who seems easy and Ram, who surely thinks she's better than others.

Ah... Well, I won't judge them until I get to know them. My mother would probably scold me if I thought that way about people I don't know. Maybe that girl just likes to wear comfortable clothes, which is why she dresses like that.

Girls consider me ugly and repulsive, so they always keep their distance from me because I'm a weird and violent guy.

And if someone tries to mess with me, I'll hit and humiliate them, and that'll keep others away from me.

Yes, I can definitely have a quiet and normal school life... Normal, huh?

Being a normal person... What do normal people do? I should investigate about it.

If I'm going to be a normal person, I'll do it right.
