"Rule number one: no making moves on Class A in the future. Rule number two: Class C will hand over one million personal points to me every month from now on. Rule number three: I don't want to see these boring tricks again. Do you understand?"
Shikime Natsu stood in front of Ryuuen Kakeru, speaking softly as he slowly held up three fingers.
Given Class C's current situation, taking out one million personal points should still be sufficient. It had only been a week since school started, so expenses shouldn't have been too excessive. Plus, Ryuuen Kakeru had likely forcibly collected the majority of personal points from the whole class.
Even if Ryuuen Kakeru had used one million personal points to trade with him at the start, he should still have one to two million personal points on hand now. After all, one million divided among everyone's head was only twenty-five thousand.
"Im... Impossible..."
Ryuuen Kakeru spoke feebly. His eyes were not as fierce as they were at the beginning. If Ryuuen Kakeru was a venomous snake at the start, he was now a caterpillar, completely devoid of lethality.
"When you make a move, you should always think clearly about the consequences. You dared to act without that kind of resolve?"
Looking at Ryuuen Kakeru before him, Shikime Natsu spoke with some amusement. If his own combat ability hadn't been sufficient, he might have really had to cash in his chips here.
Truly excessive, Ryuuen Kakeru.
Listening to Shikime Natsu's words, Ryuuen Kakeru didn't say anything more. He just breathed in and out; his mouth was full of the metallic taste of blood, his whole body was weak, and it looked very difficult for him to speak.
Shikime Natsu's gaze fell on Ibuki Mio nearby. The only figure in Class C who could speak up right now was Ibuki Mio, but... Ibuki Mio couldn't represent the entire Class C. At least compared to Ryuuen Kakeru, Ibuki Mio's weight was too small.
Forget it. He would treat Ryuuen Kakeru slightly, just to the level where he could speak normally. Of course, he used the ultimate technique of the Master Thief, so Ryuuen Kakeru wouldn't notice at all.
Ryuuen Kakeru didn't know what happened; he just suddenly felt his condition improve a bit, and he could make sounds normally.
"I can only agree to the first and third conditions. It's impossible to agree to the second condition, and I can't do it either."
This was Ryuuen Kakeru's bottom line. After all, he had the idea of gathering eight hundred million points. That was already a considerably difficult task. If he gave Shikime Natsu another one million personal points every month, then don't even think about gathering eight hundred million personal points in these three years.
Of course, there was another quite major reason. Even if he signed such an agreement himself, the people in the class would absolutely not obey.
One must know that they obeyed him now only because he suppressed them with force. Once they learned they had to pay one million personal points every month, they would absolutely explode. At that time, even if he used force, no one would yield to him anymore.
Oppression must always be moderate.
Shikime Natsu was also very clear that once Ryuuen Kakeru forcibly collected one million personal points from the class every month to pay off a debt, he would absolutely suffer a fierce counterattack.
The one million personal points used for the transaction at the start were nothing, after all, it was to obtain intelligence on this school. Not many people would dispute that payment. However, if one million personal points were handed over every month for no reason, absolutely no one would be willing.
Especially if they learned this was because Ryuuen Kakeru's personal actions caused the entire class to shoulder a debt, it was even more impossible for anyone to be willing. At that time, it was really possible they might change their leader.
Ryuuen Kakeru's actions had indeed helped Class C know the rules of this school, but it also let the people of Class C know that because of Ryuuen Kakeru's move to conquer Class C, Class C had already lost quite a few Class Points.
If a debt of one million per month was added on top of that, then Ryuuen Kakeru's negative impact on the entire Class C would be immeasurable. At the very least, absolutely no one would be willing to take out their own points every month to pay Ryuuen Kakeru's debt.
The mistake Ryuuen Kakeru made had nothing to do with them.
If they weren't willing, then it would be difficult to collect one million personal points. It had to be said, looking at it this way, Ryuuen Kakeru was still quite useless, unable to even produce one million personal points a month.
Truly disappointing.
Ryuuen Kakeru had lost his initial sharpness. No matter how many fists landed on his body now, it would be meaningless.
Shikime Natsu still had another choice now, which was to hand the Item Card: Recording Pen over to the school and let the school handle these Ryuuen Kakerus. However, once the school intervened, the benefits Shikime Natsu could obtain would decrease.
The benefits gained from solving it privately were definitely greater than if the school intervened.
If the school intervened, they would probably just make Ryuuen Kakeru pay some personal points, then have Ryuuen Kakeru expelled or suspended. It was even possible they wouldn't give the personal points to him.
Then the benefits Shikime Natsu obtained from wasting a day would be too few.
"Then give me 1.2 million personal points right now, and then 200,000 every month. Add another condition: Class C will listen to my arrangements in the future."
There were four people here who participated in the violent action against him. Fifty thousand personal points per person should be no problem. Shifting the conflict from the whole class to four people.
Of course, Shikime Natsu's main goal was still for Class C to obey his arrangements.
This school operated on a competitive system, and the four classes of the first year were also competing with each other. Shikime Natsu couldn't guarantee that other classes wouldn't join forces to deal with Class A. If that really happened, it would be troublesome for Class A no matter what.
But with the addition of a lackey, Class C, the pressure could be alleviated quite a bit.
"Class C will only listen to your arrangements for one semester."
Ryuuen Kakeru proposed a condition again. As long as it didn't involve the waste of large amounts of points, the people in the class would still absolutely obey him, at least on the surface.
As for changing the 200,000 points per month to one semester as well? The Shikime Natsu before him would absolutely not allow it. This was likely that guy's bottom line. Ryuuen Kakeru wasn't a fool; if he really had to pay one million personal points every month, he would drop out of this school.
After all, that would prove he was a failure. But with only 200,000 personal points a month, although it was still a headache, it couldn't be considered a crippling injury. He still had a chance to counterattack.
"Of course. Sign the contract."
Shikime Natsu wrote up a new contract and handed it to Ryuuen Kakeru.
What did 'only one semester' matter? As the saying goes, if there's a first time, there's a second. Just give the leeks some time to grow.
Besides, he still had the Item Card: Recording Pen in his hand. Controlling Ryuuen Kakeru was simple and easy.
Coming before Yamada Albert and Ishizaki Daichi, Shikime Natsu used the Skill Card: God-Tier Massage Technique to directly wake the two of them up.
"Ryuuen-aniki, what happened to you?"
Ishizaki Daichi stared blankly at Ryuuen Kakeru's miserable state, completely stunned, and then glanced at the unscathed Shikime Natsu.
"You guy..."
Looking at Ishizaki Daichi's appearance, Shikime Natsu was also speechless for a moment. Clearly, a week ago, he was the one who helped him and saved him from being beaten by Ryuuen Kakeru. Now, he was being loyal to Ryuuen Kakeru instead.
"Enough, Ishizaki. We lost."
Ryuuen Kakeru spoke up to stop Ishizaki Daichi.
"Ryuuen-aniki..."
Ishizaki Daichi looked at Ryuuen Kakeru in this state and couldn't help but be stunned. He was beaten until he lost his sharpness?
"Well then... happy cooperation."
Shikime Natsu put away the contract he had obtained, placed the few people's mobile phones on the ground, turned around, and left.
Ryuuen Kakeru watched Shikime Natsu's retreating figure, a trace of fear appearing in his eyes. He really couldn't defeat this guy, nor did he have a way to scheme against him. He had originally wanted to use threats to force this guy to submit, but he hadn't expected...
He had suffered a double loss.
And... the Item Card: Recording Pen was still in the other party's hands.
