Tokyo Soft Rice King.

This time, he really couldn't figure out the class monitor's true intentions.

That is to say, if Kuroba Akira could still firmly believe that this was another test of his humanity by the class monitor.

After experiencing numerous perks and rewards, especially after the class monitor actually showed him up her skirt and let him smell the original panties worn by a high school girl, Kuroba Akira was a little unsure of the appropriate boundaries.

Perhaps in the class monitor's distorted perception, it's truly possible to provide such extravagant benefits to a friend...

impossible!

It's impossible no matter how you look at it!

The class monitor isn't some naive girl with absolutely no knowledge of health or physical exercise; she's a seasoned veteran who knows everything. It's impossible that she doesn't know that carelessly handling a gun can easily lead to accidental discharge.

Or perhaps she truly embraced the role of a girlfriend?

If it were a girlfriend, this kind of flirting wouldn't be a problem, but the problem is, the class monitor previously said that she was allowed to have a girlfriend...

How much of that statement is true and how much is false?

Kuroba Akira originally thought he had a basic understanding of the class president's personality and character, but this sudden and unsettling reward made him lose his ability to judge the class president.

He now faces the class monitor as if he were facing something indescribable, and once again becomes uncertain about everything.

I can't tell the difference! I really can't tell the difference!

Forget it, if I can't tell the difference, I'll just pretend it doesn't exist.

Thinking about things you can't figure out is just asking for trouble, so Akira Kuroba decided to take a clean break.

Moreover, upon closer examination, the perks of seeing and touching are no longer particularly rare rewards for Kuroba Akira at this point.

If you're looking, you've already seen Shirai Shiori's snow scenes; and if you're touching, you can enjoy touching Murasaki no Miyako's silk stockings every day...

It seems unnecessary to obtain these two benefits from the class monitor anymore; it would be too extravagant to use the class monitor as a meal replacement.

Moreover, this is a rare one-day usage right, so it feels a bit wasteful to just use it for something else, doesn't it?

Isn't this the perfect opportunity to exploit the squad leader's intellect and labor?

I see……!

That cunning class monitor, she deliberately seduced herself into being with Se Se!

Because whether it's looking or touching, the class monitor doesn't have to do anything at all during the whole process. At most, she just has to change clothes. For her, this is the easiest job! She can even enjoy it!

Phew... Luckily I realized it in time, otherwise I would have fallen for the class monitor's big trick, blinded by his petty nature, and wasted such a good opportunity to exploit him.

After successfully breaking free from the triple dilemma of "whether to touch," "can touch," and "should touch," and returning to the key question of "what should the class monitor do," Kuroba Akira decided to temporarily suspend the specific usage of the one-day usage right.

"Let's talk about it later. It's not like I necessarily have to make a sexual request. Class monitor, don't keep tempting me with your body."

Anri Hitomi pointed to her cheek and tilted her head in reply.

"After all, I don't have enough money to pay you, my lord, so I have no choice but to sell my body."

During this time, Anri Hitomi has been taking private lessons with her mother to catch up on basic business theory knowledge, and has already made some progress.

If Kuroba Akira were to check the proficiency, he would find that Anri Hitomi has several new level 1 proficiency levels in her left hand.

Her progress was no slower than Murasaki's, and in fact, due to the versatility of her A-level academic ability, she accumulated theoretical knowledge even faster than Murasaki.

"If you can't pay now, you can pay later. I also accept installment payments, class monitor."

"I hate the feeling of being in debt, just like you, Mingjun. It makes me feel really bad to owe a good friend, so I'd like to pay it off in one go."

"Oh yeah... Speaking of which, why are we already discussing the reward? Whether I can convince Takanashi to come back to school is still an open question, isn't it?"

Anri Hitomi stood up, picked up the lunchbox, put her hands behind her back, turned to face Kuroba Akira, and smiled with narrowed eyes.

"I believe that as long as we ask a wise ruler for help, any problem can be solved smoothly."

"It seems I have earned your trust, class monitor."

"Hehe, now I'm more willing to believe in you, wise ruler, than in myself, okay?"

It was an exaggeration, but Kuroba Akira didn't take it literally; he just took it as the highest praise he could receive.

"It seems that in order to live up to your trust in me, class monitor, I need to work even harder."

After talking for so long, it's about time to go back to the classroom. Kuroba Akira stood up and asked the class monitor.

"So, shall we visit Takanashi's house today?"

After shaking his head, the squad leader began to explain the upcoming arrangements.

"No need to rush. Today I will first greet Aunt Takanashi and get her permission. Then tomorrow we will have a class meeting to decide on the program for the cultural festival. There is nothing for me to worry about in the class for the time being. So I plan to take you to visit Mirai-chan's house the day after tomorrow."

"So, I'm going to see Takanashi again this Friday?"

For Akira Kuroba, this was the second time he had gone to a girl's house; the first time was when he went to Shiori Shirai's house.

"Yes, I want to investigate further these next few days to see who fought with Mirai-chan and why Mirai-chan fought with them. Actually, Makoto asked her before, but Mirai-chan didn't tell her, so I think that's the key."

Kuroba Akira nodded in agreement.

“That makes sense. If they don’t want to talk about it, there must be a problem… If I know the specific details, I’ll be more confident in persuading Takanashi. So, I’ll leave it to you, class president, to gather the information.”

"Well, leave this to me. You, Mingjun, should focus on preparing your 'speech'."

"I speak spontaneously without any special preparation. In fact, speaking my mind directly is more touching."

"I see...that's true."

No wonder even Shiori is so impressed with you... It seems that your words played a key role.

Conversely, does silencing a wise ruler completely render him powerless?

Hitomi Anri inadvertently discovered Akira Kuroba's greatest weakness.

"Then, wise ruler, you can continue to think about the reward. I also want to know what you're going to make me do."

"I'll go back and study it carefully, and I'll definitely try my best... um, to explore your value as class monitor."

Actually, Akira Kuroba wanted to say "exploitation," but that was too harsh, so he changed his words at the last minute.

The result, ironically, touched Anri Hitomi's heart.

Value is the word she cares about most.

She has always been searching for her own value, and Hitomi's value outside of Anri.

Therefore, if Kuroba Akira can truly discover her value, she is more than willing to show him everything about herself.

“That’s wonderful! I will eagerly await the day when you, my wise ruler, exercise your right to use it for even a day…”

Compared to Kuroba Akira, the recipient of the award, Anri Hitomi, the presenter, was more looking forward to the 'reward time' that followed.

But even if Kuroba Akira only made a superficial request for Shiseido, she would be very happy.

Because that way I can show him my naked body... and in that way I can catch up with Shiori.

If he touches you, you can surpass him.

The reason she proposed the one-day usage right and deliberately steered the conversation toward H was actually for this very purpose.

Anri Hitomi made dumplings just because she was jealous of this, and even showed off her dumpling wrappers.

Jealousy can make a young girl cunning and manipulative.

Chapter 158 He hasn't yet unleashed his true strength.

After school, Kuroba Akira came to the Literature Club as usual, mainly to see Aizono Moe's illustration coloring skills.

The character designs and storyboards for the illustrations have been finalized, along with the line art, and even the black and white illustrations have been completed.

Aiyuan Moe's artwork production speed is really too fast.

Although, judging from her talent and skill level, this result is not unexpected.

But Kuroba Akira still tried to analyze the reasons, because he wanted to know what exactly was the strength of Aizono Moe compared to other painters.

This will also help Kuroba Akira further understand the cheat he possesses.

Because there are dozens of types of drawing, it's impossible for Aiyuan Moe to be proficient in them all.

In fact, Aiyuan Menghui is indeed 'unbalanced' in painting. If you ask her to paint ink paintings, oil paintings, murals, or anything like that, she simply cannot paint any of them.

Although Aizen Moe has a good understanding, it's only because she's obedient and wants to draw better, so she actively makes adjustments.

This kind of personality factor cannot be considered an influence of talent.

So, if we let her start practicing a type of drawing that she's not good at now, could she learn it quickly?

Or, in the painting genre she excels at, is she able to reach the top level in the industry?

For example, if she were to draw comics, could she become the number one comic artist in Japan, or even the world?

Is it because you only have B-level talent that you can never become number one?

Akira Kuroba also wanted to know what the English letter after "talent," namely "rarity level," would affect.

Because drawing is a relatively common talent, besides Aizono Moe, Kuroba Akira saw two other students with this talent at school, but their talents were only at the E level.

So this is a good opportunity to understand where the differences lie between different rarities.

Does the rarity level of a talent limit its width, its height, or both...?

This time, Akira Kuroba wanted to use Moe Aizono to test it out.

So, to put it simply, the rarity level of a talent, as it stands, does affect both 'speed of progress' and 'versatility'.

This is also Kuroba Akira's feeling after copying the same abilities of different rarity levels and actually experiencing them.

The difference in talent between different rarity levels is very large.

If the E-rank drawing ability only made Kuroba Akira's hands more obedient, enabling him to draw circles freehand on the blackboard like a math teacher, then the B-rank drawing ability greatly enhanced Kuroba Akira's imagination.

Because people can't actually imagine things they haven't seen, and even things they have seen are hard to visualize in their minds.

If you don't believe me, try closing your eyes and imagining the faces of your parents or friends. Probably very few people can recall the complete details of their facial features; they'll only have a vague impression.

Because the images in a human's mind are only 'clearly visible' when they are dreaming; at other times, the images in their imagination are as blurry as if they have been pixelated.

The prerequisite for the skill of painting is "clear imagination", which requires a lot of observation to form details in the mind.

Therefore, many famous painters actually seek out a lot of references to complete their imagination before painting a work.

No wonder people say that the brain is the world's most advanced image rendering engine, and the end of the spectrum is the pixel, because although humans cannot 'imagine out of thin air,' they can 'associate and combine.'
