The next day at school, when Ellard was in his class, all the students were already huddled in negotiations. Ellard remained silent, expressionless, and walked straight to her seat and sat back down.
"Ellard, you've come, yes" said Tatsumi.
"What's wrong?" ask Ellard.
"There will be another test. And this exam is a test challenge that the OSIS chairman himself proposed this exam," said Tatsumi.
"Have the exam been announced?" ask Ellard.
Tatsumi nodded his head, "True, I was called to the teacher's room earlier," replied Tatsumi.
"What's testing?" ask Ellard who pretended not to know about the exam this time.
This time it was in the form of a challenge test! Classes A, B, C and D will be in a random group. From each group there will be one person who becomes a 'Forward' within the members. Forward is a forward player or rather forward that must be another group of targets.
If one of the groups guesses a forward that is from the same class, then the answer will be considered invalid and automatically that class will be reduced by 25%, more precisely 25k points will be reduced at each point owned by students from the same class.
"Hmm, so they have to be careful in guessing a forward. But if one group of its members is random, there's bound to be traitors in each group" Ellard's inner self.
"Whatever this test is. We have to try, not let us go the wrong way" Erica said.
In a group division, the teachers are the ones who will organize the members of the group and not the members of OSIS. For the group that has been determined, it can not be changed again. If Samapai had a student protesting, then he would have been immediately expelled from the school without mercy.
Ellard was in the group (II), with about 12 pupils. From that group, there were 4 students from class A, 5 students from class B, and 3 students from class D. Ellard, Kakeru and Takumi of X-D are in the (II) group.
For class B its members are Clarissa, the head of class B, Manabe, Kurumi, Rui, and Isara. For Class A its members are, Kitahara class A, Shu, Adely, and Silvy.
"Well, for this group I will lead yes according to the orders of the teachers," said Clarissa Class B chairperson as she stood up from her seat.
"Clarissa, yes. Hmm, can he be a good leader for this group?" inner Ellard.
Then another man stood up from his seat. "And I'm the vice chairman of this group, I hope we can work together even though we have different classes" said Kitahara, class A leader.
For the first time negotiations that group II did not go according to their expectations. In fact they were at a loss as to how to think about the forwards of the other group. And Ellard, as usual, just kept quiet to hear their talks without taking part in the rites. And during the discussion, Ellard saw their unbound cooperation.
"Hmmm, is it possible that group II will succeed? I see they can't even work together properly yet" Ellard's inner self as she listens to what Clarisaa and Kitahara are talking about.
"Clarissa, is it possible that the C-class forward is Dominic?" manabe asked the class B student with black green hair with black irises.
For group II, their job is to find a forward of a class C student. But if there may be from group II there is a forward, then there will certainly be a betrayal from other classes who already know the forward.
"Hmm, rather than thinking that, better think first who of the group II members is the forward?" ellard thought to himself as he looked at every student in the group II room.
"I don't know either. But I saw it before I came here, and it looked suspicious" Manabe replied.
"You're wrong to look at someone in one direction" Ellard thought.
"Huh, have any of you thought of a good idea?" ask Clarissa.
All the members fell silent, they shook their heads signifying they had yet to find a good idea to find out who the forwards from C class were. Because surely in every class there will be at least one or more students who become forwards (forward players).
Clarissa took a deep breath. "Huh, okay. It seems like today's discussion we've already done yes. We'll have another discussion tomorrow, thanks to you guys for the time" Clarissa said.
Then as Ellard walked out the door, she unintentionally set her sights on a purple-haired girl with glasses of pretty blue irises named Adely. Ellard felt that there was something strange about Adely's attitude.
"Hmm, I should have been watching him," Ellard's inner voice as she looked at Adely's direction then she left the discussion room.
While Ellard was casually drinking a choco latte in the cafe, Hailey suddenly came and sat down at a table with Ellard.
"Do you circulate who's a C-class forward?" ask Hailey.
"You don't need to know, you have nothing to do with this" Ellard replied flatly.
"Of course there is! We are of the same heart, so be it. We'll work together, will you?" hailey.
"Currently, he wants to take advantage of me, yes," inner Ellard.
"Cooperate on what?" asked Ellard while drinking his choco lattenya.
"My group got a section to find the forward of class X-A. There are students from Class C who are in my group, maybe they are the forwards. Do you understand what I mean?" ask Hailey.
"He really wanted to use me. Cih, he's pretty good too," inner Ellard.
"Let's go, we'll see it later" Ellard replied, then left where he sat and left the cafe.
As Ellard was walking casually through the school corridor, suddenly there was a girl carrying a book that quite a lot accidentally hit Ellard, and the one that hit Ellard was none other than Adely, who was the only one who had been carrying the book, students of class X-A. Luckily Ellard did not fall, Adely's hand was immediately held by Ellard when Adely almost fell because of a slip, only his books fell.
"I'm sorry, I was in a hurry" he said.
"Heh, she's the girl from earlier. Her name is Adely, hmmm do I have to watch her?" inner Ellard.
Then Adely immediately picked up his books that fell and immediately left Ellard.
"He was unique" Ellard said with a flat face and walked away to his class.
