"Okay everyone, hand me your phones! We need to gather all of the phones, and give it to Sensei!" Shinji said to his classmates. After gathering all of the phones in a box, Shinji picked up the box and started to walk towards the teachers, but before he did that, he whispered something to Yosuke:

"I'm counting on you to calm everyone. In situations like this, we all need to be calm, or else we won't be able to accomplish anything"

"Sure. Do you have any plans for this test?" asked Yosuke

"Right now, we need to find a suitable spot to set up our base camp, and then decide on our leader and occupy the spot"

"Okay. Then, I'll calm everybody, tell them of our plan, and when you'll come back, we'll head into the forest" said Yosuke, and Shinji walked away.

When Shinji arrived at the teacher's post, he saw Sae and Chie Hoshinomiya, the homeroom teacher of class 1-B

"I've come to deliver our phones, Chabashira-Sensei"

"Good. Put them on the table" said Sae, and gestured at the table

"Hi~~~, Ayanokoji-Kun!" said Chie in a playful tone

"Good morning, Hoshinomiya-Sensei" said Shinji as he dropped the box on the table

"Good morning to you too~~~ So? How are you and your classmates are holding up?"

"We haven't even started to do anything. The class is still a bit shaken about the test, but they'll calm down soon"

"I see. It's too bad that you're not in my class. We could have used a capable student as you~~ How did you end up in class D anyway?"

"Who knows? I'm not the one who decides who will be in each class. By the way, I wanted to ask you something, Chabashira-Sensei"

"What is it?"

"Well..." Shinji said, and his eyes trailed to Chie

"Is it possible that you don't trust me, Ayanokoji-Kun?" asked Chie and pouted

"It's nothing personal against you. It's just that the question is related to matters of our class, and you're class B's homeroom teacher. I also heard that you specifically are close to your students, so I can't risk it"

"Chie, can you please go for a couple of minutes?" asked Sae

"Okay~~~" Chie said, and walked away, leaving Shinji and Sae alone

"So? What do you want?"

"As of now, the test hasn't started yet, right?"

"Right. Only when a class is headed into the forest, its test starts"

"Then, I can still use my phone, right?" Shinji said, taking out his phone from the box

"What do you need it for?"

"On our first day, you said that we'll be able to buy anything using our private points, right? If that is the case, I would like to buy something from you"

"What is it? As long that it isn't something that listed in the manual, you can buy it"

Then, Shinji smirked widely and said:

"Then, how many points will it cost to buy a fake leader card?"


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

"I'm back!" said Shinji

"Great! Now that Shinji-Kun is here, we can head out!" said Yosuke, and class D started to walk into the forest. Shinji quickly walked next to Kikyo, and whispered in her ear:

"I have it. You remember what are you supposed to do?"

"Yes" Kikyo answered

"Good. I'll give it to you by night"


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

"Everyone! I think it's time to go and look for a spot for our base camp" said Yosuke

"There's no need" Shinji said as he stood up

"What do you mean?" asked Yosuke

"When I was looking at the island from the ship, I saw something that is possibly a suitable spot. I'll go and check if it's not occupied. You need to stay here, or else I won't be able to find you"

"You saw a spot from the ship?" asked Kei in surprise

"I only figured it was a spot after they told us about the test"

"Are you sure it's safe to go alone?" asked Yosuke

"Don't worry. I'm quite used to places like this, so I won't get hurt. Well then, if I won't return in an hour, start to look for another spot" Shinji said, as he disappeared into the forest. After he created some space from his class, he started to run

'Good, I got rid of them. Now, let's start and look at the spots the upperclassmen told me about' Shinji thought and started to speed up


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

After half an hour, Shinji managed to run by three spots, and now he was on his way to the fourth. However, he managed to hide, just when he saw Kohei walking out of the cave that was supposed to be the fourth spot. Shinji noticed that Kohei was holding a leader card

'That's weird... there's no way that someone as cautious as him would hold the leader card in his hand when anyone can see him...'

"We were lucky, Katsuragi-San!" said a familiar voice, from inside the cave, and a few seconds later, Yahiko walked out of the cave

'I see... so it's a trap to make people think he's the leader... it would work on most people, as everyone is desperate for cp, but not on me...' Shinji thought, and quickly run away, before they could spot him, and continued to the last fifth spot


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

"So? what do you think of this spot?" asked Shinji as he led his class to one of the spots. It was a spot near a river

"Now we won't need to buy more water!" said Maya

"Now we only need to decide on the leader!" said Yosuke

"I can be the leader if no one else wants to and if no one has any problem with it..." said Shinji

"I think it's a good idea! Shinji-Kun is very reliable!" said Kei

"Don't you think we need to choose someone who doesn't stand out too much? I don't have anything against Ayanokoji, but after what happened with class C, I think that the other classes, especially class C, will watch Ayanokoji" said Teruhiko

"That's right..." said Yosuke

"That's not necessarily true. You see, while it's true that I did gain some attention, no class will just guess the leader depending on popularity, since the risk is too big. No class will risk 50 points by guessing the leader. If a class will want to name the leader, they would have to confirm it. Which means that either they steal the card, or catch the leader when he claims a spot. I'm pretty protective of my belongings, so they won't be able to steal the card from me, and we can simply form a ring around me when I'm claiming the spot. That way, no class will be able to figure out that I'm the leader"

"I see. That's a logical conclusion. Sorry for refuting you" said Teruhiko

"Then it's decided!" said Yosuke

"I'll go and get the leader card of Sensei!" said Shinji


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

"You again? What do you want now?" asked Sae as she saw Shinji coming

"You're horrible... treating your student like this..." said Shinji with fake sadness

"So?"

"I need a leader card with my name please"

Sae quickly issued a card, and Shinji started to run back

'Let's go and claim the other spots before I return'


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

After he claimed the other spots, he came back to the base spot and claimed it too. Then, the class proceeded to set up the camp, and when they finished, Shinji was quite surprised that Kiyotaka, who went to get some branches for the campfire, returned with Mio Ibuki, a student of class 1-C. One look at Mio, and then into Kiyotaka's eyes, made Shinji smirked inwardly

'I see... so that's the strategy Ryuen chose... looks like the card will be useful after all...'

Shinji inspected Mio. She had a bruise on her face, and multiple other injuries in other parts of her body, but not something too severe. Her tracksuit had numerous places dirtied by mud.

'Ryuen probably actually did hit her, to make it look real... Ruling by fear, huh? Such foolishness. After all, most of the dictators throughout history were stronger men than Ryuen, yet they ended up killed by their people. Be it by rebellion, or assassination, they always ended up dead. What gives you the confidence it won't be the same as you, Ryuen? But what caused all of their deaths, was not their people, but a smart enemy country. When a ruler is tyrannizing his people, they lose trust in him, making it easier for an enemy country to convince them to act. Shall I ignite a rebellion or an assassination? For now, I'll work on her, and I'll see how to continue later' Shinji thought, as he saw Kikyo offering Mio some fruits. Then, he suddenly heard Ken shouting:

"Damn him!"

Shinji came running to where his classmates gathered

"What happened?" Shinji asked

"Koenji said he wasn't feeling well, and returned to the ship!" said Teruhiko

"What will happen to our points?" asked Satsuki

"According to the rules, we will lose 30 S-points..." said Yosuke

Shinji pinched the bridge of his nose in annoyance

'That fucker... I knew he's selfish and would be troublesome, but I didn't think he will go this far. When I heard from the upperclassmen that he also received points from them, considering his selfish nature, I thought he'll simply gather enough points, so he could buy his way to class A, but now he's even sabotaging our test... Looks like I'll have to make sure he'll continue trying to get into class A, but without sabotaging the cp... I didn't want to mess with him since he's the type of man that won't listen to what anyone tells him no matter what, but I'll have to, or else he might sabotage my future plans as well...'


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

As night came, everyone went to sleep. After making sure that all of the boys are sleeping, Shinji silently walked out of the tent, just in time to see that Kikyo came out as well. He signaled her to be quiet, and slowly started to make his way out of the camp, with Kikyo following him. After they were far enough, Shinji turned around and said:

"You can get mad at me later, but please play along with it"

"What do you-" Kikyo started to say, before Shinji sealed her lips with his, holding her by her waist. Kikyo couldn't react, as Shinji's tongue invaded through her lips with ease, dominating her. With her mind in mess from the surprise kiss, Kikyo's instincts started to take action, and she wrapped her hands around his neck, deepening the kiss. While Kikyo's eyes closed, Shinji opened his, and looked pass Kikyo's back, and saw Mio, who he noticed following them, blushing deeply, and winked at her, as he firmly gripped Kikyo's ass, causing her to moan into the kiss. Only after he saw Mio leaving, he stepped away and smirked cheerfully at Kikyo. A second later, he received an expected slap from Kikyo, who was blushing deeply, both in rage and embarrassment

"What the hell was that!?" said Kikyo in anger, keeping her voice low

"I saw Ibuki-San following us, and that was the quickest way to make her leave. Only a pervert would stay and watch, but even a pervert will run away when he sees that he was spotted"

"It doesn't mean you can kiss me!"

"Why not? It looked like you were enjoying it, as you deepened the kiss, and even moaned~~" Shinji said with a teasing smirk. Still blushing, Kikyo tried to change the subject by saying:

"Whatever. Where is it?"

"Right here" Shinji said and took out of his pocket, a leader card with Kikyo's name on it, and handed it to her

"It looks exactly the same"

"Of course it is. I wouldn't pay 1,000,000 points for a bad fake"

"1,000,000 points!?"

"I know right!? Sensei sure do like to make my life harder. Anyway, we'll be changing our plan a little, since Ibuki-San appeared. All you need to do in this test is to "accidentally" show the card to Ibuki-San on the sixth day"

"Fine. Are you going to claim the other spots again now?"

"Yes. Want to come with me? It'll make it more believable if we'll come back together in an hour"

"But it took you an hour to look for the spots, and claim them by running yesterday. I can't run as fast as you"

"You don't need to. There is a reason I chose a specific spot to be our base camp out of the 4 I found. I chose it, since it was in the middle of the other spots. That way, it will only take me 20 minutes by running, and an hour by walking, to claim the other three spots, after I claim the base spot with the rest of the class, so it won't be a problem to have a little date with you with the full moon above us"

"Aren't you dating Karuizawa?"

"Not exactly. Let's just say that she has her circumstances"

"So you blackmailed her too?"

"No... she was the one who asked for a fake relationship"

"Is that so? Why are you telling me that?"

"Well, it looks like you were jealous of her, so I wanted to ease your worries" Shinji said with a teasing smile

"You're imagining things. But I guess I'll come with you. I can't return alone, and simply waiting for you here will be boring, so I might as well come with you. But if you'll try something like that again, I'll castrate you!" Kikyo said with a threatening tone

"So scary~~~" Shinji said playfully, and the two went to claim the spots


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

"Why did you drag me with you?" asked Suzune in annoyance

"Well, you're one of the smartest people in our class, and I can't have Hirata leaving the camp, as he is the supporting pillar for our classmates" Shinji said

"So where exactly are we going to?"

"To make a little visit to the other classes!" Shinji said with a cheerful tone


~~~ Time Skip ~~~

"Shinji-Kun! Did you come to visit us? And Horikita-San is with you!" said Honami as she approached them

"Yes. We decided to see how the other classes are doing. Though I have to say, you guys are doing very good" Shinji said and looked around class B's camp. It was near a waterfall, and all of the students were cheerfully chatting with each other. It really looked like they were on a class trip, and not during a test.

"Really? Then I guess that it's not as good in class D?"

"I wouldn't say it's bad, but we still have some minor problems. Not something you should worry about"

"Ichinose-San, can we assume that we are in a relationship of cooperation?" asked Suzune

"Yes! That's how I want it to be at least. After all, we're all friends!"

"Can't argue with that logic!" said Shinji with a smirk

"Sorry for interrupting, but I was wondering if there is anything I can help with?" asked a student, who Shinji recognized as a class C's student, from the time he spoke with Ryuen

"You can help Chihiro-Chan and the others over there!" Honami said and pointed at a certain direction

"Understood" said the student and walked to the direction Honami pointed at

"It looks like you have a visitor from class C as well" stated Shinji

"You have one too?" asked Honami

"Yes. I don't know what Ryuen is planning, so be careful"

"Don't worry! Anyway, I'm sorry but it looks like I have to get back to work, so come back soon!" Honami said, and both Shinji and Suzune left

"It looks like you as well, don't think Ibuki-San is in our camp coincidentally," said Suzune

"Of course I am, and now that I saw another student from class C with class B, it's even more obvious. Ryuen probably planted them as spies in each class, so he could reveal the classes' leaders identity"

"So what are you going to do?"

"Nothing at all. I said that I'm protective of my belongings, didn't I? You don't need to worry. She'll never be able to take my card off me"

"What are you planning?" asked Suzune, narrowing her eyes

"Who knows? All you need to know is that you don't need to do anything. If you want to get to class A, don't interfere with my plans, unless you're willing to work under me. I can use someone like you"

"And why would I want to work under you?"

"Well, I am superior to you, both academically and physically... But I think that you witnessed the reason for yourself. I outsmarted your brother, who you look up to, and he was in class A for three years, and he's the student council president, so I think it counts as something, isn't it?" Shinji said with a smirk

"What you did is blackmailing!" Suzune said in anger

"And does it change the fact that I outsmarted your brother, does it? In the real world, as long as you win, it doesn't matter what means you use. But since I know that you're pretty stubborn and proud, I know you won't agree to work for me easily. Tell me, do you think you can get our class to promote to class C by the end of this class trip?"

"You must be joking, right? To do that, we need to gain at least 403 cp in this class trip, without class C earning even one!"

"So, in other words, you say you can't do it"

"As much as it pains me to admit it, I can't"

"Then, if I manage to do that, it means that I'm better than you, right?"

"Are you saying you can?"

"Let's make a bet. If I can get the class to promote by the end of this class trip, then you'll work for me. If I won't, then I'll work for you" Shinji said with a challenging grin

"Fine then. If you'll be able to promote our class to class C, then I'll work for you"

Unbeknownst to Suzune, Shinji was recording this conversation with a recording device


In this chpater, original author added Suzune to the harem, so the harem is now:
