A Simulated Reality (COTE reacts)

Chapter 1.3: Against The Class (reaction)

Ayanokouji POV

A 100,000-yen monthly allowance was no joke. If students receive them unconditionally, it will surely pose future problems, even for a government as rich as Japan's. That's not even counting the cost of maintaining every top-tier facility inside the campus.

"Shocked by the amount of points you've been given? This school evaluates its students' talents. Everyone here has passed the entrance examination, which itself speaks to your value and potential. The amount you've received reflects the evaluation of your worth. You can use your points without restraint. After graduation, however, all of your points return to the school. Because it's impossible to exchange your points for cash, there's no advantage to saving them. Once points have been deposited into your account, it's up to you on how to spend them. Do as you like. In the event that you don't want to spend your points, you may transfer them to someone else. However, extorting money from your peers is not allowed. This school monitors bullying very carefully." Chabashira-sensei finished.

As bewilderment spread among the students, Chabashira-sensei looked over the room.

"Well, it appears no one has any questions. I hope that you enjoy your time here as students-" Before she could turn around and leave, I raised my hand and called for her attention.

"Sensei, may I ask you a few questions?"

Unlike the earlier clamor, the students and teachers were unusually silent this time around.

Even the Class D students eyes were glued to the screen, appearing slightly insane and mad of the suspicioun formed inside their minds.

I looked towards the teachers area. And as expected, Chabashira-sensei couldn't restrain herself and had a wide smirk on her face.

I couldn't blame her. After all, this exact scenario was probably what she was expecting over me, only to be dissapointed at my lack luster attitude.

The cheering stopped as soon as they heard me. Every single one of my classmates' eyes was glued towards me, even Horikita.

"You're Ayanokouji Kiyotaka-kun, right? Feel free to ask your question. I'll answer anything that I'm permitted to," she replied.

I should probably get used to this by now. If I'm going to establish myself as an exemplary student, attention was a natural outcome.

"Firstly I'm concerned about the mechanic of transferring points. To make sure that no one gets scammed during a negotiation, is there a system that can avoid that?" I asked.

My question rose to a clamor among my classmates.

"I didn't think of that," said one guy.

"It's a good thing he asked that..." said one girl.

Suddenly sigh of relieves came out of the students mouth. I didn't notice, they probably didn't also as well, but almost everybody was holding their breaths.

"So it wasn't as I th--"

Before those words could even finish, the video continued and proved their most wildest, ridiculous guess earlier.
