My Second Life, In The Class Room Of The Elite World - Chapter 70

The school held a general election to decide who would be in charge of the next student council. Immediately after the election concluded, the school ushered in the handover ceremony of the student council. It was a large-scale event that gathered students from the entire school to the gymnasium. However, for most of the first-year students, it was a very uneventful experience.

“Now, here are some final remarks from president Horikita of the student council.”

Following the moderator’s speech, Horikita Manabu slowly approached the microphone on the stage.

“I am proud and grateful to have been able to lead the student council for almost two years. Thank you very much.”

After his brief statement, Horikita’s brother quietly retreated and returned to his original position.

However, it does not look like the retirement ceremony will end with just this.

The student council officers on the stage with him stood firm, not breaking their solid posture.

“Student president Horikita has worked so hard for you all. Now, please welcome the new student council president, a second-year student of Class A, Miyabi Nagumo.”

‘So, in the end, it comes to this huh,Manabu still lost to the pressure from Nagumo.’ Ryou thought.

Miyabi Nagumo, the new student president, walked forward and stood in front of the microphone.

“I am Miyabi Nagumo of the second year’s Class A. President Horikita, I really appreciate your strict and kind guidance so far. I am honored and would like to pay tribute to you. I am thankful for being able to accompany the legendary president who has played one of the greatest leadership roles in the history of this school.”

With that, he bowed deeply in the direction of Horikita’s brother, and then re-faced the students.

“Let me introduce myself again. My name is Miyabi Nagumo. I will be the next student president of Advanced Nurturing High School. Please take care of me.”

It was quite different from the attitude Ryou had glimpsed at the sports festival. Nagumo was very polite and gentle. But he felt they were only being shown the surface.

“I’ll get straight to the point. First of all, I promise to change the terms and appointment method of the student council as well as the practice of the general election. This will mean changing the date of the general election of the student council from December to October. This shift will be an attempt to move to a new generation for the student council and I judge that they will be when the new student council will move towards a new era. I will change the tenure of the president and officers from terms to indefinite so they can serve until graduation. At the same time, I will abolish the current restrictions on the number of student council officers. In other words, as long as it is an excellent and necessary person, they can become a member of the student council at any time regardless of the number of slots that are open. In the event that someone is judged unfit for office, I will establish a system of majority vote at the meetings for expelling them from their positions. As a starting point, let me make a declaration to the students, teachers, and leaders of the former student council who are ȧssembled here. The school system of the future… I will destroy all that has been preserved by the previous student councils for the sake of the appearance of the school.”

He spoke so forcefully that it seemed to negate all the merits of the former student president who stood behind him.

“I originally wanted to implement this new system immediately, but unfortunately, I cannot do that. This is because the new student president will be bound by various kinds of constraints upon first taking office.”

Nagumo glanced at Horikita, the former student council president, and then turned back to the students.

“I promise that there will be a great revolution in the near future. Students with strength will climb up to the top and those without strength will fall to the bottom. I will turn this school into a real meritocracy, so please show me what you all can do.”

The gymnasium was immediately silenced by his declaration, but almost all the sophomores soon started screaming with joy and became rowdy. There was a battle between the second years and the third years that most of the first years didn’t know about.

Back into the classroom, Ryou talking with his friends.

Ryou: “So, in the end, the one who becomes the president is Nagumo-senpai huh.”

Honami: “It’s a little bit hard now to join the student council.”

Ryuji: “Huh? Why? Aren’t you already offered by him?”

Honami: “Well, how should I describe it, I just felt insecure around him. And Ryou already gives us a warning about him.”

‘I will not be able to change everything, I’m not a god who knows whatever he did after all.’

Ryou: “Don’t worry, as long as we move to class A next year, it is good enough for us right?”

Ringo: “Yeah, I don’t want to be near him too.’

It’s because Ringo was approached too by Nagumo.

‘Man, aside from his ability, Nagumo really looking for a girl with good looks and figure huh.’

Fumino: “At least we know that the 2nd year and 3rd year are in a conflict.”

Ryou: “Actually to call it a conflict is a bit too much, maybe competition.”

Ryuji: “Unhealthy competition?”

Ryou: “Something like that. As long as we’re not on their way, I think we will be alright.”

He knows that someday Nagumo will come to them, that’s why he has to warn his close friend to be wary around Nagumo.

Preparation is needed to face someone like Nagumo.

He is cunning and will not hesitate to do whatever he has to do to reach his goal.

Even if he has to sacrifice other people, and that is very dangerous. Now he was in command of the student council as a president, he has a lot more power to do that.

‘If I’m forced, I will not hesitate to do a hard way too, Nagumo.’

A/N: This is a little bit dangerous for Ryou and his friend since they already rejecting Nagumo’s offer before.

But I’m sure Ryou has his own way to face him.
