Demon Slayer: I was taken home by Shinobu Kocho at the beginning.

After hesitating for a moment, Nanase nodded.

"I'm thinking about Yagami."

Yagami, it seems his death has had some impact after all.

Are you very familiar with him?

“No, we barely spoke.” Nanase shook her head. “But a brilliant student like Yagami must have saddened many people because of his death—his parents, his friends.”

Kamio Tatsuya simply listened to these words; after all, he was the one who killed Iori, so he didn't want to bring up the topic of Iori.

However, given Yagami's personality, some of his friends might be saddened by his passing, but his parents might not necessarily be grieving over his death.

After all, it's hard to say which parents would send their child to a place like the White Room for fifteen or sixteen years.

Speaking of this, Tatsuya Kamio remembered Ichika Amasawa. She had been away from school for several months, and he wondered how she was doing.

She was a pitiful person too. No, not just her, most of the children in the White Room were pitiful. Ayanokouji's father was a real scoundrel.

"Life is full of uncertainties. You can never be sure whether tomorrow or an accident will come first." Tatsuya Kamio shook his head and said in a deliberately profound tone, "So, cherish the present."

After saying that, Kamio Tatsuya patted the person standing up on the shoulder, left the room, and went back to rest.

The next day, after having a buffet meal on the ship, Kamio Tatsuya encountered Kanzaki from Class B, who was accompanied by a girl.

Her name seems to be Hime, she has twin tails and looks like a little devil.

Can we talk?

"Of course, no problem. Let's find a quiet place. You probably don't want anyone to hear what you want to say, right?"

Kanzaki paused for a moment, then nodded.

Afterwards, the three arrived at the stern opera house on the first floor of the ship. It was still early, and most students had not yet gotten up. This place, which was not usually crowded, was even more deserted, and the performance had not even started yet.

"Just tell me what's on your mind, and I'll answer accordingly."

After sitting down, Tatsuya Kamio spoke to Kanzaki and Himeno.

What are your thoughts on Class B?

After hesitating for a moment, Kanzaki asked the question.

What are your thoughts on Class B?

Of course I'll just sit and watch.

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Tatsuya Kamio frowned. "If you're just asking me about my impression of Class B, my answer is that they're a very competent group."

"Do you think Class B has any hope of being promoted to Class B?"

Are you provoking me? Or are you declaring war on me?

Faced with Kanzaki's question, Tatsuya Kamio was somewhat speechless. "You want a promotion? Doesn't that mean you're trying to get rid of me?"

"I'm not provoking you, and we don't need to declare war, do we? Although we get along well in private, we've always been enemies at the class level."

That's true. Kamio Tatsuya and Kanzaki have a pretty good relationship in private. They greet each other when they meet, and they sometimes go out for meals or play together when they bump into each other on weekends.

"From my perspective, I won't promote you to a higher class, and frankly, you don't have the ability to do so."

Tatsuya Kamio gave a straightforward answer this time.

To Tatsuya Kamio's surprise, Kanzaki nodded.

I said, since you already know, why ask again?

"Indeed, if Class B doesn't make changes, it's really impossible..."

"So what if we make changes?" Upon hearing Kanzaki's words, Tatsuya Kamio basically understood what Kanzaki wanted to say.

Originally, everyone in Class B was very happy when they were promoted to Class B in the third semester of first grade.

But his joy didn't last long before Tatsuya Kamio kicked him off his throne.

Even now, they are at risk of falling into Class C. Kanzaki probably came to find Kamio Tatsuya on behalf of the students from Class B who did not want to see this happen.

As for the evidence, Ji Ye next to him is the evidence.

"Kanzaki, you've got one thing wrong. Class B is already at a very high level of combat power."

"If you want to move up to the next class, the most important thing you need to do isn't to change your own class, but for someone to beat Longyuan, and beat me!"

Finally, Tatsuya Kamio pointed to himself with his thumb.

To be honest, Class 1 and Class B are now about the same in terms of overall strength, and Class 1 is even slightly inferior to Class B.

But so what? Even if the soldiers aren't top-notch, a good commander can still win.

Therefore, what B-Class needs to do now is not to strengthen the soldiers' abilities, but to have a strong commander step forward.

Not only Class B, but Class C is the same.

To defeat Ban, you must defeat both Tatsuya Kamio and Sho Ryuen at the same time.

Chapter 341 The Exam in Kamio Tatsuya's Mind

Seeing Kanzaki's silent expression, Tatsuya Kamio shook his head speechlessly.

Is it so hard to admit your failure?

Or rather, is it really that difficult to acknowledge my strength?

It is indeed a sign of great courage to do something knowing it is impossible, but it is foolish to know that there is a dead end ahead and refuse to take another path, and insist on crashing through the mountain.

"Kanzaki, failure is a constant in life. That's life. If you can't do something, you just can't do it. Not graduating from class doesn't mean your life is over."

As he spoke, Tatsuya Kamio stood up and reached out to pat Kanzaki on the shoulder.

"He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened. In short, think it over carefully."

What cannot be done is simply not done. This is not only advice for Kanzaki, but also a warning to himself: do not do things beyond your capabilities.

Just like playing a game, if you can't beat a boss, try not to provoke him for the time being. Wait until your level and attributes are higher before challenging him, otherwise he will show you what death is.

For the other classes in the second grade, Tatsuya Kamio was like a big boss standing in their way, an insurmountable obstacle.

Moreover, this boss can gradually grow stronger just like them, or even stronger than them, which is enough to make people despair.

"As expected, Ichinose was right."

After Tatsuya Kamio left, Himeno, who was next to Kanzaki, took out the lollipop from her mouth and muttered something.

"what do you mean?"

“Ichinose probably realized long ago that Class B had no chance of winning, which is why he insisted on protecting his classmates.” Himeno glanced at Kanzaki, then sat down opposite him.

“You’re right. To be honest, if it were Sakayanagi or Ryuen, I think we still have a fighting chance, but against Kamio…”

Kanzaki didn't finish speaking, but you could tell what he meant from his head-shaking gesture.

"So, have you decided to support Ichinose from now on?"

"Is there any other way?" Kanzaki nodded. "Besides, Ichinose doesn't seem to be giving up. She's been actively preparing for this exam."

"Yes, but her idea is probably not to get promoted, but to save up a few more points to avoid us dropping out of school."

Kanzaki agreed with this.

"By the way, thank you for suggesting that I come to find Tatsuya Kamio. It also made me realize the current situation."

Hime shrugged. She didn't particularly like Class B, but she didn't dislike it either.

So when she discovered that Kanzaki wanted to change the class, she immediately thought of how to stop him.

After much deliberation, she still felt it was important to let Kanzaki know just how strong their opponent was.

Therefore, she suggested that Kanzaki go directly to Tatsuya Kamio to talk about the class.

Tatsuya Kamio did not disappoint her either. In just a few words, he changed Kanzaki's opinion and gave the confused Kanzaki a new direction.

"However, I am still very surprised that you would suggest that I consult with Kamio."

"There's nothing strange about that, is there? If you have troubles, wouldn't it be better to talk to a smart person?" Hime said nonchalantly. "Besides, you probably don't want anyone else to know about this, right?"

"Then why can Kamio-kun do it?"

"Because he doesn't seem like the type to talk too much, does he?" Hime turned her face to the side.

"I remember you, Himeno, didn't seem to have much interaction with Kamio. Could it be that you knew each other before high school?"

Kanzaki also showed a curious expression.

"Who knows."

On the other side, just as Kamio Tatsuya left, he received a text message from Nagumo, asking him to go to Tsukishiro's office.

They even thoughtfully included the location of Yuecheng's office.

What's this guy up to now?

Kamio Tatsuya stroked his chin and headed toward the address written in the text message. On the way, he encountered Katsuragi and Ichinose, both second-year student council members.

"Judging from your appearance, it seems you're also heading to the acting chairman's office?"

“That’s right.” Katsuragi nodded. “Were you also summoned here by the student council president’s text message?”

"Judging from this situation, it seems that the student council is about to undergo major changes."

Because the distance was very short, the three of them quickly arrived outside Yuecheng's office.

Boom boom boom!

After knocking, a response came quickly from inside the house that Yuecheng had allowed them to enter.

"excuse me."

After opening the door and entering the room, Kamio Tatsuya found that in addition to Nagumo, who had called them over, Tsukishiro was also there.

Well, that makes sense. After all, this is Yuecheng's office, so he should be here.

However, compared to Tsukishiro's calm expression, Nagumo's expression was not so pleasant. After Kamio Tatsuya and the other two arrived, he only glanced at them and did not even bother to greet them.

Since that was the case, Tatsuya Kamio and the others didn't intend to curry favor with him and stood silently at the door.

"Please have a seat, all three of you."

"Thank you."

Then, Kamio Tatsuya sat down on the sofa opposite Tsukishiro, while Ichinose and Katsuragi obviously did not have seats.

So the two of them stood behind Tatsuya Kamio, like two lackeys.

"Seeing the current situation, Kamio-kun, you should know why I called you here."

"Is it about the student council?"

Yuecheng nodded, then glanced at Nanyun.

"This uninhabited island exam was actually proposed by Chairman Nagumo, and the exam was only held after the school approved it."

Unfortunately, an accident occurred during this exam. Although the school will bear the main responsibility, Nagumo, as the main planner, also bears an unshirkable responsibility.

While he wouldn't be expelled, he was no longer suitable to be the student council president.

I see. No wonder Nagumo seemed unhappy.

“I have already submitted my resignation to the school,” Nan Yun continued. “However, there are still some things to do before I retire, which is to elect the next student council president.”

Then, Nan Yun's gaze swept over the three of them one by one.

"Of the three of you, Ichinose was the first student to join the student council, Kamio holds the position of vice president of the student council, and Katsuragi is the most familiar with the work of the student council."

So although I have the right to nominate the next student council president, I still believe that you all have reasons to become the next student council president. If you are willing, I can help you hold an election.

Of course, third-grade students don't participate in this election, so you don't need to worry about me manipulating the votes.

"No need, I'm withdrawing from the race."

After hearing Nagumo's words, Katsuragi immediately gave his own answer.

Tatsuya Kamio had been kind to him, so he couldn't possibly go against Tatsuya Kamio at this time.

Moreover, he was genuinely not interested in the position of student council president.

"I'm giving up too. I don't think I'm capable of being the student council president." Ichinose then gave her answer.

As for Tatsuya Kamio, he shrugged after hearing their answers.
