Real teaching, but diary flow

What about my talents? What about my gifts? What about the skills I've honed over the years?

What is modeling? What is frontal armor? Why compare her to Yukino Yukinoshita? Who is Yukinoshita?

Is his courage only 75? What kind of person dares to challenge Grandpa Yamauchi?

How can there be loneliness? Is 59 considered high? Am I really that lonely?

In a daze, she seemed to hear someone's voice saying, "Mistaking loneliness for arrogance."

...Very good, she understands.

This thing wasn't meant to give her skill points; it was just a way to bring up the taunting she'd already mentioned before, and then mock her again, all under the guise of a skill.

Chapter 151 The girl's movements were still a little awkward.

Suppressing the strong urge to close the diary, Horikita Suzune calmed herself down and flipped back through the pages.

As expected, she easily found the corresponding page associated with these three skills and comments.

The former was the only thing he praised about himself when he was discrediting himself as a "low-tier Yukino".

'Modeling'.

Secondly, it was when he was praising "Uncle Yamauchi" that he was also praising himself.

'Courage'.

The latter was the phrase he had spoken in a brotherly tone, which was the very phrase she had just hallucinated.

'Lonely'.

None of them were things she wanted to add points to to become stronger.

Modeling... well, it's all about looks, and the front armor probably refers to that lump of fat on the chest.

The numbers in her diary also show that 94 is a very high number, consistent with her self-perception.

'I'm very good-looking.'

This number is already enough. To achieve this result without focusing on her appearance at all, she should be proud of herself.

There's absolutely no need to add any points.

As for courage... she never felt that she lacked the courage to stand up in important moments.

It was precisely because of this courage that her boldness was worthy of being given the number 75 in her diary.

Although the comments were subtle, she didn't feel she lacked courage.

...Although she wasn't completely fearless.

When facing her brother, she always felt that she didn't have enough courage.

Perhaps we could add one or two more.

As for loneliness, that's the last thing we're going to add.

Horikita Suzune had long ago repeatedly recited the line she had written in her diary, "Mistaking loneliness for arrogance," to reflect on and warn herself.

Her friendship with Kikyo Kushida is also a reflection of her progress.

...Although Kikyo Kushida has been acting subtly a bit strange lately.

But no matter what, they are still friends.

She also has such a friend!

In short, we're too busy trying to reduce loneliness, so how could Horikita Suzune possibly add that point?

Try adding a bit of courage.

With a sigh, Horikita Suzune picked up her pen and wrote '+1' after her courage.

Just like the last time when comments were open to the public, which had to be written down, although she hadn't left any comments, she naturally assumed that adding comments would also require writing, since she knew about it from Kikyo Kushida.

"Changing the 'Courage' value will consume 10 reading points. Would you like to add points?"

"Yes," the girl replied calmly.

As a result, the courage value jumped up slightly in her eyes.

"..."

However... to be honest, she didn't really feel it.

Is it because the value is too low? Or the change is too small? A mere 1 point is only a 1.3% increase from 75 points.

However, it takes 10 reading points to add one point of courage... It's hard to say whether it's worth it or not.

Regardless, Horikita Suzune has no intention of adding any more points.

Now that we know for sure that only the content mentioned in the previous diary will be extracted into skills, we should naturally save the remaining points for useful things.

After all, with the comment function available, if you plan well, you still have a chance to induce the other person to write down the skills they want in their diary.

...It's hard to say whether such a strategy will be approved by the diary.

She was written about quite a lot, but in the end, only these three skills were recorded in her diary.

The criticisms like "incompetent," "indecisive," and "pretending to be indifferent" were not displayed.

So she wasn't really sure if it would work.

But regardless of whether it's possible or not, giving up without even trying has never been her style.

"...Let me discuss it with Kushida first before making a decision." Horikita Suzune thought to herself as she sent Kushida Kikyo another of her annoying messages for the day.

......

"Buzz-"

The personal terminal vibrated a few times before returning to calm.

As always, Kikyo Kushida ignored the message, wrapped her arms around someone's neck, and flipped through today's diary behind him.

The contents of today's diary are not important, so she won't mention them.

The topic of the girl band from a few days ago has simply ended, and the conversation has turned to brief everyday topics.

Important, or rather, useful, points are being added to this new section, which begins today at the beginning of June when the class points are recalculated.

skill.

【Kishida Kikyo】

[Two-sided: 69 (Your disguise is masterful)]

[Kissing: 36 (The girl's movements were still slightly awkward)]

You can now use reading points to allocate skill points to optional skills.

The skills displayed under one's name are only two: "Two-faced" and "Kissing".

The two sides that had been mentioned countless times in her previous diary were completely ignored by Kikyo Kushida, whose gaze was slightly fixed on the 'kiss'.

'36'

That's a bit low.

She was too lazy to think about why only these two skills were displayed, nor was she too lazy to ponder the meaning of these two skills.

It's nothing more than the kind of satire that diaries love to do; there's no need to delve too deeply into its original meaning. Maybe this book doesn't even have any special significance.

However, upon seeing the number associated with the 'kissing' skill, a slight, inexplicable feeling of dissatisfaction arose in the girl's heart.

How come you're only 36?

Despite the obvious message that she could add reading points if she was dissatisfied, Kikyo Kushida paid no attention to the text and simply propped herself up slightly while hanging on someone.

Her slender fingertips gripped the already disheveled shirt tightly, her slightly relaxed fingers tracing upwards with her weight as she leaned back, her hands supporting her body.

She wrapped her arms around his neck, looked directly into his eyes, and gently parted her lips:

"Look at me."

"..." Asakusa Tetsu smiled silently, then decisively lowered his head.

A moist, sticky feeling pervades, and the casual demands are kept to a minimum.

At first, there was a brief exchange of temperature, but it soon became more than that.

Her slightly relaxed hands unconsciously crossed, their heavy breaths mingling, and the girl's eyes gradually became hazy.

When the principle of "stopping when you've got it all" is forgotten, someone begins to become addicted to it.

"..."

Kikyo Kushida opened her diary again.

Her gaze swept up and down, quickly locating the area she wanted to focus on.

Soon, she saw that the number after 'kiss' had jumped up by 1 point.

[Kissing: 37 (The girl's movements were still slightly awkward)]

Then, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

“Again,” she said.

'37→38'

Chapter 152 Sakura Airi Lacks Courage

6 month 5 day.

Several days have passed since the fixed class point settlement, and the long-awaited arrival of individual points has finally eased the suffocating atmosphere in Class D.

Although it was only a mere 8000 points, in their eyes, which had been empty for a month, it was 8000 points!

After the midterm exams, each class's score increased to varying degrees based on their performance.

Class A maintained its advantage, with its class score rising to 902. However, perhaps because they were originally Class B, and influenced by the class teacher's nonchalant attitude, coupled with the relatively harmonious and friendly atmosphere in the class, everyone lost their initial tension. Due to this relaxation, they still lost some points on behavior and conduct.

In contrast, Class B worked much harder, quickly rising to 900 points, and only 2 points away from overtaking them.

After all, they should have been in Class A. Seeing their seats taken by the former Class B, while they had to humiliatingly bear the name of 'Class B', they would naturally work even harder.

However, when it comes to effort, they are certainly no match for Class D, who have no money at all.

Thanks to the efforts of the vast majority of students, they ultimately received most of the class points awarded in the midterm exam.

Despite the several disturbances in class, perhaps because their class had only zero points before, all violations before the midterm exam results were not counted, and this time they actually received the most class points.

As for Class C... the drawbacks of the high-pressure rule still appeared. After a month of pressure, the second month saw the fatal lapse in discipline.

They only added two points, bringing their total to 752.

"..."

"8000 points is still too few; they can't be spent in time."

"Yeah, it's all gone in no time. Didn't they say there would be a hundred points? So even though they said there wouldn't be a test, points still get deducted?"

"No way, do I really have to go to class again this month? I've had enough..."

"Who told us to have an old man in our class?" someone said sarcastically.

No names were mentioned, but everyone knows who it refers to.

Koenji Temple.

Not only did they not share the class's debts, but they also showed no consideration for the class's points, acting very casually in the classroom.

Honestly, if it weren't for the intimidating reputation of the Koenji Zaibatsu and the truly frightening muscles he displayed during outdoor classes, the class's opinions would have overwhelmed him long ago.

The reason why everyone has tolerated him until now is partly due to Hirata's mediation, but more so because of the other old men.

For example, Haruki Yamauchi and Kanji Ike were completely liberated after the midterm exams.

Although there was a slight rift between Ike and Yamauchi because of the exam, since no one in the class paid any attention to him, after feeling awkward for a while and realizing that he wasn't a pretty girl and no one would take the initiative to reconcile with him, he still happily hung out with Yamauchi again.

They were arm in arm, exuding an aura of illicit collusion.

"Hey, Haruki, I need to talk to you about something." Ike glanced around and whispered, "Didn't you say before that Sakura confessed to you? If you don't want her, how about you introduce her to me?"
