Classroom of the Elite (LN) - Chapter 3: Ladies and gentlemen, thanks for waiting! (Intro)

Ladies and gentlemen, thanks for waiting!

“Good morning Yamauchi!”

“Good morning Ike!”

While arriving at school, Ike called out to Yamauchi with a smile on his face.

It’s unusual for those two to get to school early. One week since the entrance ceremony. Ike and Yamauchi have always arrived at school right before the bell.

“Wow~ the lesson is so fun that I can’t sleep~”

“Yup, this school’s the best—swimming will start soon! I say swimming, but girls are the important part! And by girls I mean their swimsuits!”

Certainly, swimming is taught to both boys and girls. In other words, Horikita, Kushida, and all the other girls are wearing swimsuits… and their skin becomes visible. The girls in the room backed away from Ike and Yamauchi’s excitement.

On the other hand, I was still sitting in my chair, all alone. I have to be proactive in joining a group of friends. Fortunately, their conversation was paused, so I stood up. However…

“Oi, Doctor. Come over here.”

“Fufu, did you call him?”

A chubby boy, who apparently has the nickname “Doctor”, walked towards the ones that called him. I think his name was Sotomura or something.

“Doctor, can you record the girls wearing swimsuits?”

“Leave it to me. I’ll pretend to be sick and skip class to observe them.”

“Record? What are you planning to do?”

“Doctor’s going to rank the sizes of the girl’s boobs. If there’s a chance, he’ll try to take a picture.”

“… Oi oi.”

Sudou also draws back from Ike’s plan. If the girls find out it’ll be a bloodbath. However, regardless of what they’re talking about, I’m envious of their conversation. Must be good to have friends. I want friends too.

“Sad.”

“…You were here too, Horikita?”

“A few minutes ago. I walked in while you were looking at those boys. You wouldn’t be thinking of trying to be friends with them, would you?”

“Shut up. It’s difficult for me to make friends anyway.”

“The way I see it, you don’t seem to have a communication disorder.”

“I have a lot of circumstances. Ha… even now I can only hold a conversation with you.”

Even if I can text with Ike and the others, conversation is still hard.

“Hey… I already told you to not include me in your list of friends, right?”

She looked at me with a disgusted face as she took a few steps back.

“It’s ok. No matter how low I go, I’d never become friends with you.”

“I see. I feel relieved.”

How much does she hate having friends?

“Oi Ayanokouji.”

Suddenly, Ike called out to me. When I looked up, I saw his smiling face beckoning me over.

“What, what is it.”

I slightly stammered as I got up. Horikita already turned her attention to other things.

Anyways, my chance to make a group of friends has come. I walked towards Ike.

“To tell you the truth, we were going to bet on the the girl’s chest sizes.”

“We even have a table for the betting odds.”

Doctor took out a tablet and opened an Excel sheet.

All the names of the girls in the class were listed. Bets were also attached. I’m not interested in betting, but I won’t let this chance to make friends get away.

“Hmm… Should I join?”

“Yea! Do it, do it!”

Right now, the contender for the biggest breasts on the sheet is Hasebe. Her odds are 1 for 8. (T/N 1 for 8 or 1 to 8? don’t know)

It’s a name I haven’t heard before. I haven’t memorized the names of my classmates. This is pretty bad.

“This is more detailed than I thought it would be… aren’t you guys observing too much?”

“That’s because we’re male. We’ve only got ass and tits constantly in our minds!”

Even if that’s true, they have no restraint at all.

Near the bottom of the odds, there was Horikita’s name. It was about 30th.

Well, in terms of breast size, it’s obvious who wins and who loses. She has a pretty low chance of winning.

“So, what are you going to do? It’s 1,000 points to join.”

“I see…”

Without knowing anyone’s names and faces, let alone their breast sizes, it’s hard to join.

The only people I hear about, after all, are Horikita and Kushida.

Kushida certainly has big breasts, but it’s hard to say that she’d take first place with only that much information.

“It’s fine, we’re only playing. There’s a lot of people to pick from too.”

“I’ll do it!” “Me too me too!” “I’ve scouted boob sizes before too!”

While I was thinking about it, the boys all gathered and got excited over breasts. All the girls in the classroom looked over with disgusted expressions.

“I’ll join too. My bet’s on Sakura.”

Yamauchi cut in and gave his bet. Sakura is an ordinary girl who wore glasses. I don’t really talk to anyone, so I wouldn’t really know.

Pondering about something, Yamauchi took Ike and Doctor’s shoulders and started whispering something.

“I’m only saying this to you guys, but I actually confessed to Sakura.”

“Ha!? What, really!?”

Ike was the most surprised and impatient. Did someone beat him to achieving his goal?

“Yea, yea. But this is only between us, ok? I thought she was really ordinary at first. And then I saw her clothes. Those things are huge.”

“Stupid, you’re asking her because she’s big and not because she’s cute?”

“I wouldn’t date anyone unless they’re at the same level as Kushida and Hasebe. I don’t have any interest in ordinary girls.”

Yamauchi was being merciless because no one else was around.

I wonder how much I can trust his words about asking her out.

In the end, I decided to place my bet on the girls with higher odds.
