"Perhaps it is out of courtesy, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they are cute juniors."

"What about little hearts?" Frustrated by her uninteresting response, Kasumi Toyama turned to someone else.

She had long, straight, golden hair that was even brighter than Hatsuka Sangoku's hair color. She had bangs framing her forehead, and her pupils were also a brilliant gold. She exuded an air of nobility, and her face was always beaming with a smile that seemed to never fade.

"Me? Hmm! I'm looking forward to it too!" In response to her question, Kokoro Tsurumaki grinned cutely and made a cheerful gesture.

"Right, right! Look, it's Arisa!"

"No, it's not easy to find someone like you in this world... Rather, what's up with you, Tsurumaki-kun?" Ichigaya Arisa was exhausted by these two clowns.

"Huh? Because Misaki is the student council president now!" Kokoro Tsurumaki said with a matter-of-fact expression.

"so?"

"Hmm... I don't know! But as Misaki's friend, of course I have to help!" She brushed it off with a smile.

“Heart…” Okuzawa Misaki was deeply moved.

“I really don’t understand if you’re genuinely unaware or just pretending, Michelle…” Ichigaya Arisa sighed, touching her forehead.

"Shh—" Kasumi Toyama tugged at her sleeve, stopping her from continuing, "This is a topic that shouldn't be discussed."

As the group talked, the emcee on the stage, after a brief transitional speech, announced the next step in the proceedings.

"Next, please welcome the freshman representative, Asahi Ogura, to the stage for a speech."

Bang bang! ! !

The audience responded with applause, a gesture of respect for the invitee, but some were inevitably surprised.

"Huh?!" The students in Class B of the first year looked at the person with silver-white hair in surprise.

"Asahina-chan...is this the surprise you were talking about?" Mikasa Hatsuka was equally surprised, staring in astonishment at Ogura Asahina beside her.

"Unexpected, isn't it? Surprised?" she said with a faint smile, reciting one of her lines from "a collection of lines I want to say at least once in my life."

The Kamen Rider line I said to Serina Ii on the train last time was also from that show.

Earlier in the classroom, the homeroom teacher was asking her if she, as the freshman representative, had prepared a speech for her speech on stage.

Sanjiao Chuhua nodded slightly, without refuting: "It is indeed a surprise. I didn't expect that the freshman representative would be my seatmate. So you are a top student."

"Well, that's how it is." Ogura Asahi propped himself up on his lap with both hands, and slowly stood up. "Well, I'll be right back."

"come on!"

Leaving behind everyone with her back turned, she walked step by step toward the microphone that Osawa Misaki had just used, under the watchful eyes of everyone in the auditorium.

The moment she turned around and faced the microphone and the teachers and students in the audience, a small wave of restless noise suddenly rose in the already quiet temporary auditorium.

Discussions about her were rampant in every corner, giving every teacher a headache, and they all stood up to shout and stop her.

But not only the students, but even the teachers and directors watching from all sides were astonished by her true appearance and took the lead in breaking the rules by exchanging pleasantries with her.

The third-grade students watching the newcomer from the side of the podium also reacted in various ways:

"Arisaki! Arisaki!" Kasumi Toyama stared intently at the podium, reaching out her hands to shake vigorously at her teammate beside her.

"I know! I know! I admit she's very cute, okay?" Ichigaya Arisa, who knew her best friend's thoughts all too well, replied resignedly.

"Hehe~ This year's representative is quite outstanding in appearance, this is interesting." Yamabuki Saya said with interest.

"Wow~ what an adorable junior!" Kokoro Tsurumaki placed her palm flat in front of her eyebrows and stood on tiptoe to take a closer look.

"They're so popular! Everyone down there is so excited!"

“Arisaki, you know what I’m going to say, right?” Misaki Okusawa said.

"I understand... I'll help you get her into the student council, okay?" Ichigaya Arisa looked at her helplessly.

"Hmm! But we don't know if she has that idea yet. Let's ask her again later!"

"..."

On the stage, Ogura Asahi glanced at the audience below before turning her gaze to the side—the direction from which Osawa Misaki had just stepped off the stage.

Sure enough, she saw several familiar figures, but... she opened her eyes wide in surprise and unexpectedly saw half of the existing third-year students.

In less than half a day, she met eight potential future "best friends," and she was so moved that she almost covered her mouth and cried.

Before anything seemed amiss, she quickly averted her gaze and turned back to the front.

I'm happy as I am, but it wouldn't be good if these guys with "superpowers" saw through my disguise.

However, putting others aside, the High Ancestor should be able to easily bring her surprises, right? After all, he is a humanoid succubus who loves everything, so he should not mind sharing some of her "Star Rhythm, Power of Friendship" with her.

Two minutes later, after much effort, the auditorium finally returned to silence.

Asahi Ogura gazed at the numerous heads below, lost in thought. What should he say?

Although she did stand up, in reality—she hadn't prepared a speech at all. What's the point of preparing a speech for a mere student? That's such a waste of time.

When I told my homeroom teacher this morning, "I don't think there's a problem," it was just a perfunctory response. She was just planning to say a few words and call it a day.

Anyway, even if it explodes, it doesn't matter. All she cares about are those people with their own halo; everything else is irrelevant.

Compared to sticking to old rules and saying boring things, open and free topics are definitely more likely to make them feel close and happy.

Should we learn from the former student council president of the neighboring school and just say, "Let's do whatever makes everyone happy"?

No, that person's personality is different from hers, and she's not the student council president.

If we're going to talk about it, shouldn't it be about a penguin that inherited from the other club?

Although, given her personality, let alone making such provocative remarks, just being able to speak loudly in front of everyone would be considered a significant improvement.

After thinking for a moment, she opened her mouth and said, "I am Ogura Asahi. I am very happy to be here at Hanasakigawa Girls' Academy and I am honored to give a speech as a representative."

"Today is such a happy day. Not only did I become friends with my idol who sits next to me in class, but the two classmates in front of and behind me are also beautiful. I look forward to developing a good relationship with them in the future."

"As a freshman, it's good to abide by the school rules and study hard, but from my personal point of view, I hope to build a kirakira, dokidoki (sparkling, heart-fluttering) youthful relationship with my classmates and seniors."

"Don't be bound by seniority or juniority, or what your status is outside. The most important thing is to be able to create new relationships and joyful memories with people you respect from an equal perspective."

"If we can achieve this, I think it doesn't matter if we reduce the importance of other things a little."

"If everyone in this school can shine with a smile every day for the next three years, then my wish as the freshman representative will have been fulfilled... Don't you all think so?"

"..."

Below the podium, in the area for Group B of the third year.

Sanjiao Chuhua stared at her figure, lightly covering her mouth, surprised by her bold and unconventional remarks;

When Shiina Tatsuki and Hachiman Kairin, who happened to be sitting together, heard themselves mentioned, they leaned forward in surprise and made a "Ha~" sound. Then they looked at each other and returned to normal.

The third grade is located to the side of the podium.

"Is this the kind of personality this freshman has? He seems a little arrogant."

"No way! She's really amazing! And she's also a follower of Kirakira and Dokidoki, you know? As her senior, I think we'd definitely get along well!" Kasumi Toyama clenched her fist excitedly.

"And she said she wanted to develop good relationships with her seniors, right? As a senior, I feel obligated to support my juniors' ideas!"

"What about Xiaoxin? She also said she wants the campus to be filled with smiles, what do you think of her?"

"Hmm... how should I put it, we need to take another look, right?" Kokoro nodded her chin, still returning the smile.

"Eh~ That's a bit unexpected. I thought Kokoro would happily rush up and pull her down to talk to her." Okusawa Misaki was surprised.

"Soso, I think so too."

Xian Juanxin smiled softly, offering no response or comment. She narrowed her eyes and continued to observe what lay ahead.

Let's turn our attention back to the microphone.

"..."

"I sincerely wish that in the days to come, you will all have wonderful encounters and destinies, just as I have today."

"In the days to come, we hope to create a vibrant and colorful youthful life that benefits ourselves, others, and the campus."

"These are all my thoughts for today. Thank you for listening."

After bowing and paying his respects, amidst enthusiastic applause, Ogura Asahi reluctantly stepped down from the podium.

In any case, he has mentioned the points that needed to be made, planting the seeds for future development. How things will develop from here on out depends on his future actions.

While such a straightforward statement might arouse suspicion in some intuitive individuals, it should be fine at this level.

Since we'll have to meet sooner or later anyway, it's easier to gain the other person's approval than to lie, deceive, or be secretive by stating our position from the beginning.

Ugh, this is such a hassle.

If he were outside, why would he need to work so hard?

Volume 1: Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 155 I Really Need to Control You, Haha

"I am back."

"Welcome back."

After exchanging a few words with Misaka Chuka with a smile, she carefully watched her movements and sat back down in her seat.

It was only at times like this that she felt the inconvenience of changing her identity.

To conceal her identity and avoid being recognized, she must completely imitate women in her daily behavior to avoid appearing different. This is undoubtedly more strenuous and mentally taxing than when she could move freely and do whatever she wanted as Sakurakoji's alias.

To give a detailed example—for instance, before sitting down, she needs to hold the outside of her skirt with both hands and then slowly sit down to prevent the skirt from pressing down on her.

Do you think she'd talk about things like going to the toilet? Just kidding. She knows those scenes by heart, those scenes that have been played out so many times by countless romantic comedies. There's no way she could make a mistake.

Because she rarely left her home, she wasn't very clear about how girls outside behaved. The only men she could learn from and have the most contact with were her mother, sister, aunts, and young great-aunts... those were probably the only ones.

Although there are still maids in the mansion, their movements are all trained in a formulaic way. They are fine for work, but they are too stiff and abnormal for everyday life.

These past few days, she has been constantly recalling and pondering the usual actions of everyone in her family in her mind, replaying their figures a thousand times over, as if they were real people in front of her—sometimes she even felt that she was about to awaken a ghost mind.

There's no other way; if you want to transform it into a long-standing habit and naturally integrate it into your body in a short period of time, this is the only way.

"Ogura-kun is amazing! She's even the top student!"

"Ah~ She's already so beautiful, and her grades are so excellent too. Is this what they mean by being both beautiful and talented, Kishira?!"

"I am honored to be your classmate!"

"..."

The female students around her, upon seeing her return, all offered their congratulations!

"Thank you everyone..." she replied with a forced laugh.

Fortunately, the emcee's announcement interrupted their actions.

"Hey, that concludes today's opening ceremony. Please leave the venue in an orderly manner under the guidance of your homeroom teachers and return to your classrooms."

As the venue instantly returned to its noisy state, Ogura Asahi was temporarily relieved.

Led by their homeroom teacher, who was dressed in a professional suit and wore red-rimmed glasses, the students of Group B in the first year returned to their classrooms.

"Now, it's time for class meeting. First, please introduce yourselves."

The homeroom teacher returned to the classroom with a black-covered, A4-sized booklet in her hand, which was probably a student roster.

"First of all... Ogura-kun, could you please demonstrate first?"

This wasn't because she intentionally wanted Ogura Asahi, as the representative of the new students, to set an example for everyone. Rather, it was because in the class roster arranged by surname, the "o" at the beginning of Ogura's name is the 5th character in the Japanese syllabary, which happens to be at the very top of the roster.

"I understand." Ogura Asahi stood up and faced the entire class with composure.

"My name is Ogura Asahi, and I'm very happy to be in the same class as you all."

"My interests are making clothes and music. I have some knowledge of common musical instruments. My hobbies are stargazing and cooking. I don't have any food preferences or dietary restrictions."

"As I said on stage before, I hope that in the future, we can build a good and harmonious relationship with everyone. That's all."

I didn't say much, because I had already said most of what I needed to say on stage.

Nevertheless, after she sat down, there were still slight gasps and enthusiastic applause in the classroom.

When talking about interests, Ogura Asahi made a point of observing the three people around her and found that they all showed some surprise.
