Chapter 150: Epilogue : The Results

The bottom five groups will be called in beforehand, and the first thing they will be asked to do is to see if can take remedial action. Students who can be prevented from being expelled will be saved by paying the price here.

Students who do not have enough private points, or who have them but do not use them for some reason, will be expelled at this point and will have to pack their bags and board the small boat.

After taking my first shower in a few days, I decided to take a walk around the ship. Normally, I would have used my cell phone to communicate with my friends and loved ones, but since the school was still holding onto my phone, I wasn\'t allowed to do that.

I passed a few Class D students and exchanged a few words of appreciation with them, but I made my way to the deck. There, I saw an interesting combination of two people.

They were facing each other, talking. I didn\'t do anything to hide, so one of them noticed me right away.

His face was covered with scars, indicating that he had had a fierce battle with Hōsen during the exam.

"I\'m sorry to interrupt, but don\'t forget your promise to me, okay? That and the money."

Bringing up the word "promise," Ryūen only gave me a passing glance before heading back inside the ship.

"Of course, Ryūen-kun. Whenever the time comes, you can come and tell me." Sakayanagi smiled happily at Ryūen\'s back.

"Promise?"

"Yes, since the strength of the first-years was unknown. I prepared Ryūen-kun as a skilled mercenary soldier, but he\'s not the kind of person who would cooperate for free. I told him that if he would listen to my request, I would grant him a wish."

I see. So that\'s why Ryūn appeared to fight Hōsen.

"By the way, do you know the result of the quarrel?"

"I can\'t say I do. I know that both Ryūen-kun and Hōsen-kun returned to the starting point covered in wounds and were sentenced to retire after receiving medical treatment."

So the fight ended in a painful split, with both sides retiring, though the winner of the fight was unknown. But it must not have been easy to convince Ryūen who was only focused on winning the deserted island test.

"Yes. It\'s a promise that I don\'t even know when it will come true, and besides... that wish is like strangling his own neck in the near future." She smiled at me, and her eyes were as innocent as a child\'s.

I could tell the promise wasn\'t something as nice as a sweet date.

"I\'m glad you\'re okay. Did you have any problems with the timing of the GPS disappearance you instructed me to do?"

"It was perfect timing. I\'ll be sure to pay you back."

"I have only one hope for the future. It\'s to have a serious match with Ayanokōji-kun without anyone getting in the way."

"That\'s a rather difficult proposal."

"I know. Right now, Ayanokōji-kun wants to lead a peaceful life as much as possible. I\'m well aware that I can\'t do anything that would inadvertently make you stand out. There\'s no need to be hasty. We still have almost a year and a half of school life left."

Sakayanagi said that if there was an opportunity to compete somewhere before graduation, that would be fine.

"It\'s almost six o\'clock, time to announce the results, isn\'t it?"

"Yes, it is."

Which groups had won and which had failed? I think I\'ll go check that out.

At the 7 o\'clock dinner time, the members of Class D naturally started to gather together and started eating at the same place. Yesterday and today, the list of subordinate groups was unavailable for viewing, so the only way to find out which group had performed poorly was to ask them directly.

"First of all... I think it\'s a great thing that none of us, the second year Class D students, were able to finish the special exam without missing any group. The fact that all Class D students are here means we all avoided expulsion. I\'m really happy about that." Looking around at his classmates, Yosuke just said that with all his heart.

I was a little concerned because I hadn\'t seen Yosuke once on the deserted island, but he seemed to be more preoccupied with his friends than with his own fatigue. If they were all here, it meant that the group with Akito was also safe.

I decided to take a quick look at the rest of the second-year classes.

There didn\'t seem to be any students missing. The students were eating their first hearty meal in two weeks, but they couldn\'t stop enjoying themselves.

As the teachers begin to gather, the 8:00 p.m. signal is given and the microphones are turned on.

"Please stop eating and talking for a moment."

Such an announcement is prompted by Sasaki, the homeroom teacher of third-year Class A.

"First of all, I would like to thank you for your hard work on the special deserted island exam. We, the teachers and staff, are amazed that you made it through the two weeks without missing any group, even though a total of thirteen students retired."

He began with a word of appreciation for the labor.

"As some classes may have already noticed that some students are missing, we have penalized and withdrawn the bottom five groups as we had explained to them beforehand. If there is more than one person in a group, one name will be read out as the representative: the five groups will be: third-year Class D, Mutou; third-year Class D, Kawakami, third-year Class C, Katsumata; third-year Class C, Shinonome; third-year Class B, Mikitani, for a total of fifteen students."

The first and second year students collectively breathed a sigh of relief at Sasaki-sensei\'s explanation.

I had confirmed that there were indeed those names in the lower ranks at the end of the 12th day, but it was so unexpected that the group of all the dropouts was from the third-year. I had thought that Nagumo would be the one to bail them out and pick them up. I had also expected that some freshmen and sophomores would also fall through the cracks. But as it turned out, five groups of three third-year students were gone.

"Of these, there are no students who could have used remedial measures, so a total of 15 students have been confirmed to leave the school without any change."

Given this result, had it been unofficially decided that the five groups of third-year students would be expelled? I thought so and looked at the faces of the third-year students, but apparently not. There was no room for doubt on the faces of many of the students, and they looked upset, as if they couldn\'t believe it. They looked as if they were terrified of the outcome, as if they were being turned into an example.

I looked for Nagumo, but the profile I saw for a moment did not look any different from usual. Perhaps, his last-minute altercation with me might have affected the outcome.

The giant screen was turned on and a white image was projected, then another person came out.

"Now we are going to announce the top three groups in the results of the special desert island exam."

It was Acting Director Tsukishiro. He doesn\'t give the slightest hint about the fight with me, and proceeds with the same calmness as when he announced the start.

"Third place, second-year, Class A, Sakayanagi Arisu Group, 261

points."

It seems that they took full advantage of the only group of seven sophomores allowed to participate, and slowly built up a solid score to slip into third place. On the last day, Ichinose left the team halfway through the day, but I guess that didn\'t have much of an impact. In terms of scoring, the Ryūen and Katsuragi group also fought hard, but the retirement of Ryūen on the 13th day must have had an impact. With Katsuragi alone, there was a loss of order of arrival rewards and fewer challenges to participate in. It must have been a tough two days for him as he had to play it safe to avoid the risk of retiring.

The doubling of the score on the last day must have been a headwind.

The students who were sent to stop the first-year students were all from outside Sakayanagi\'s group. The tablets she used were from another group, so she didn\'t take any big risks. She responded to the danger by sending out Ryūen. Sakayanagi should have been able to foresee that it would have been dangerous for him to have a fight with Hōsen. Did Ryūen go because his junior school connection with Hōsen or was it because of the "promise?" If it was the latter, then it would be more attractive than the increased rewards from the third place and the ordeal card. However, I was surprised to see that the Kiriyama group stalled at the end of the game.

And the second place.

It\'s no exaggeration to say that this is where it all comes down to.

At the end of the 12th, it was clear that Nagumo and Kōenji were the two leaders. Even if they lost some points, as far as the third-place score was concerned, no disturbance would occur. It would be Nagumo who would bring the three years together, or Kōenji who continued to show breakneck momentum on his own.

"Second place, third-year, Class A, Nagumo Miyabi group, 325

points."

When Acting Director Tsukishiro read that out, there was not a cheer but a scream. Without a pause, the announcement of the first place was made.

"First place, second-year, Class D, Kōenji Rokusuke, 327 points."

The moment his name was called, Kōenji was instantly the center of attention and gaze of all the students. The result was a mere two-goal difference, something that could have been overturned by a single trivial incident. Still, Kōenji was able to achieve first place under the most difficult of conditions. He received the 300 class points that would have been distributed for first place, one million private points for each individual, and one protection point.

"You\'ve really done it, Kōenji-kun."

Kōenji turned his gaze once to Horikita and asked, "You understand, don\'t you?"

Horikita would have no choice but to answer with a nod of her head. As she had promised, Kōenji was now exempt from all charges until graduation.

From now on, he will be able to live his school life as he pleases.

"I\'m not at all honestly pleased, or maybe I\'m just dumbfounded..."

"You can be happy now, can\'t you? Getting 300 class points alone is extremely significant for moving up to Class A. It\'s the second time you\'ve confirmed your escape from Class D."

Besides, if it\'s Kōenji who originally did whatever he wanted, there wasn\'t much to control in the first place.

"Yeah, you\'re right. This means the scores will be quite close, from Class B to Class D, trivial matters might just make classes switch."

"As long as we don\'t drop too low this month due to poor behavior in our daily lives we should be fine."

Because class points are subtly deducted for daily conduct and problematic behavior.

"Don\'t say silly things."

But once again, I think about the huge significance of this two point difference. It reminds me of Nagumo, who took the trouble to visit me today.

I remember the voice of his friend that I heard from the walkie-talkie at that time. If Nagumo had answered that voice at that time, the results of the first and second place would have been reversed. And I wonder if there would have been a difference in the group that was expelled.

It\'s not something that can be answered by thinking about it here. For now, this long special exam has come to a successful end. Miraculously, none of the second-year students were absent, and we were able to get through the summer.

I also found out that Amasawa is a White Room student. I don\'t know why, but at least now she\'s siding with me instead of the Tsukishiro. Whether this is a coordinated strategy or Amasawa acting alone after betraying the White Room is not clear at this point, but the information I have gained is not insignificant.

Still, there are some mysteries left to be solved. Perhaps this summer vacation will not end smoothly.

Translator Note

Hey, everyone it\'s Prince. So that\'s the end of the three novel long island exam arc. The novel was alright, and I thought I\'d put this translation out after neglecting it for months.

My favourite scene was the Hōsen vs Ryūen scene, I was waiting for Hōsen to throw down with Ryūen from y2v1. I can\'t wait to see what he does in the upcoming novels.

Props to my editor Cast for putting in great effort with editing and proofreading, he helped me a lot. Thanks man.

As always, a shout out to Kinusaga (the author) for writing this novel in the first place, please do support him by buying one of the official copies of Classroom of The Elite somewhere down the line.
