The Uniregular Sport School 1
Chapter 8: Useful

"Enough everything, please line up!"

The students including me and Elaina instantly lined up as ordered.

"Yes, I'll introduce myself. My name is Anthony West, just call me Mr. West. Now that this is our first meeting, I'm just telling you to play a game."

"Good!"

"It's just a light sport game, you just need to pull up over there as much as possible. You will do it one by one, for men must be able to do it more than 10 times and for women only need to do it once. If it is less than that then a light punishment awaits you too."

Ten pull ups, this is so easy because I can do more than 100 without a pause. But back again I should be able to trick Mr. West by doing it slowly, maybe shaking my arm when pull up is also a good idea.

I don't want my abilities to be visible and be flashy because of it, I think striking because stupidity is better. I want to use my abilities at the right time, that's all.

"As a beginning, you! It's a punishment because you're late."

Mr. West pointed his index finger at me, which meant he told me to be the first to do it.

"Isn't my punishment just one?"

"What are you talking about? Just do!"

"I understand."

There was no point in arguing with Mr. West, so I directly walked over to the place of the person who would normally pull up.

It feels a little lower because usually I jump first in order to reach the pole, but in this place I only need to tiptoe a little and the pole has been reached.

"Start!"

I held on to the pole and pulled my body up. I'll do it over and over again, maybe 11 times.

"One, two. three.. four, take it seriously!"

Mr. West's voice made me wonder if I couldn't trick him in a simple way, maybe just a coincidence.

"Nine.. ten.. eleven! So weak, why only eleven?!"

"My body was too tired from the push-ups, I'm sorry."

"That's just your excuse, why are you holding back? Do you want to be punished again?"

"What do you know? Didn't your own eyes see that my hands were shaking violently while doing it?"

"Say your name! You're a really interesting person."

Surprisingly, of the many people who thought I was weird, only Mr. West said that I was an interesting person.

"Satomi Adney, I call Satomi. Should I say hello?"

"By the way, I wish we could be good friends."

"Then Mr. West, can I go to the toilet now?"

"You're not gonna run away, are you? Don't call Mr. West, you can call me Anthony!"

"Of course not, all right. Anthony." -."

"Let me tell you one more thing. If you explain why you're holding back, then I'll release your punishment along with your boyfriend."

Before I actually left the field under the guise of a permit to the toilet, Anthony whispered a little to me.

All the classmates were staring at me confused and maybe they told me to stop making a teacher feel upset. They wanted to tell me, but they were too afraid to talk and they could only do it through gazes.

It was true that I couldn't fool him easily, I underestimated him too much and now Anthony knew right away that I was holding back.

I must have a good relationship with her to keep my tenure going, maybe I will also beg her to keep my abilities a secret if necessary.

From the beginning everything has been troublesome, now it has become even more troublesome. Yes, I do have to deal with it because it is my own choice.

The last offer Anthony made, I think it was good enough to protect Elaina. From the beginning he felt scared when he saw Anthony punishing him. For that I just need to answer with a little lie to make Anthony believe.

I just don't agree on one thing with her, which is that the relationship between me and Elaina is not a courtship or anything like that. Maybe a lot of people think I'm dating Elaina because at the time of the incident I hugged her in front of the class, but actually they were wrong because I had refused her to date.

"Wait, Satomi! Why is your path so fast?!"

A girl's voice rang out to me, sounding different from Elaina's. When looking back it turned out that she was Lina with her blond hair sparkling in the sunlight.

"What do you need?"

"At least appreciate me! I need more courage to lie to that terrible teacher in order to talk to you about something."

"If it doesn't matter, then I'll go."

"Don't just leave, I don't know if this is important to you or not. But I'm curious."

"Tell me."

"Excessive worship, I still don't understand about it."

"It's obvious, isn't it? Because of your beauty, they became upset with me for refusing you to be a couple in the exam."

"I know too. Can you explain it more fully so I can understand?"

"I'm leaving."

This conversation is not important at all because Lina should be able to understand it on her own without even bothering to ask me.

"Wait, all right Satomi. I'll get to the point!"

"What else is this time?"

"The feelings and emotions are interconnected and if one of them disappears, then slowly the other one also disappears."

"What do you mean?"

I was quite surprised because Lina was as if she was going to answer a question that kept repeating number four in my mind.

"I just want you to be able to express yourself more and not be anti-social, and if you do that then the previous events will not happen again. By the way, are you really okay? I saw you beaten pretty hard by them."

"Is that so? I don't think there's anything to worry about because I can still move around very freely myself."

"Yuboh as well. My first impression when I saw you until now was just one, you were useless."

"Huh?! Yubohs? Whatchu mean?"

"It'll be hard to explain, so please just forget it."

Lina is useless?

Of course, when I heard the answer that seemed to answer the fourth question. I became convinced that he was useless, and the answer did not satisfy my curiosity.

One more thing, he was just curious and wanted me to give my first impression of him like he told me.

Because his last name was difficult to name, so I called him Yuboh. But, I will stop calling him that name now. The reason for that was because he must have thought that I thought of him as a special person when I called him that.

"You are weird! Look at it later, I'll definitely be more useful than him."

"his blood?"

"Truely, from the girl who had already snatched my position!"

Lina's pretty face turned red, maybe because of the sunlight or it could be because of her angry feelings. Then he left me shortly.

Lina definitely did not understand what I meant by being useless, explaining it also felt useless, so I let it go.

It seems like Lina also intends to be better and useful than Elaina, so I hope for more results from her words.

Forget it, I should go back to the field and tell you why I'm holding back. I went to the toilet and peed anyway.

"You've been a long time, Satomi!"

"Sorry, Anthony. I'm lost."

"Haha! What the fuck, you don't know your school environment?"

It was unexpected that Anthony who was known to be more terrifying than Mr. Smith could laugh and smile at me. Even some of the students were surprised and wanted to talk to him, but the feeling of fear still haunted them and in the end they just kept quiet.

"This school is so vast, it's only natural that I'm lost?"

"Yes, it's natural. Now what if I take you around?"

"Hmm.. I don't mind, but how are they?"

"yes too. Hm.. Until here first our learning, you are free to do anything and please return to class if the martial arts lesson is up. There is no penalty for the loser, after all pull ups are important because many muscles can be formed if they do. So, I hope you enjoy the little game!"

"Ready!"

The students instantly disperse themselves with confused expressions and feelings, now the field leaves the girl alone, who else if not Elaina.

Anthony was great, he easily ended the lesson just to accompany me around school.

Now only the three of us are on this field.

"Hoi, Satomi's boyfriend. Can you come any closer?"

"Ah, fine!"

With her frightened face, Elaina walked quickly towards the two of us.

"Anthony, he's easily scared and please don't scare him with your creepy orders! And also, I have a lot of questions for you, but I'm confused where to start."

"Haha! I'll try to answer it. First, I'm purely from London. I'm 24 years old and I already have a wife and one child."

"I think it's a lot different than what I wanted to ask."

"You mustn't ignore your charming girlfriend, now let's have a casual chat while going around school."

"Hmm. good."

The three of us started walking the straight route, I'm sure Anthony didn't intend to take us for a walk.

"Satomi's boyfriend, what do you think of your own boyfriend?"

"Anu. We're actually, not dating at all. But, that Satomi is someone who is calm and can solve any problem."

"It's lying. You look friendly, moreover you are also late almost simultaneously. Aren't you guys doing a pervert thing until it's too late?"

"That-..."

"You pervert, Anthony. Stop making her feel uncomfortable!"

I interrupted the conversation before Elaina opened her mouth.

"Then I'm sorry, Satomi's boyfriend. Hope your relationship is closer."

"Yes, thank you."

The three of us continued walking with endless talk until we finally got to where I was and Elaina registered herself as a couple.

"It's a shame Satomi, I can only take you around to the teacher's office."

"No problem."

"Tell me now, why are you holding back? If you don't answer, then I'll report your delay to Mr. Smith."

"Like it, I am a person who is too quickly satisfied with the results I get. Moreover, I was always inconsistent with what I was doing, so that's why I held back and tried to develop one of my abilities alone."

"Hmm. Your excuse makes sense, all right. I look forward to one of your abilities. You can leave now!"

"Good."

Me and Elaina then turned around after Anthony entered the teacher's room, we had no other purpose than to go to the classroom.

"You're not good at lying. In your own way, others will easily know your abilities and you will be troubled by them."

"I see, I just need to be weaker and stupid in order to trick more people as well."

Harlow Elaina, I learned a little about her. I think she's more useful than Lina.
