Unlike the art class, the content of the information processing class is similar to a classroom lecture, but the purpose is to learn techniques. Since the main purpose of the class is to "make those who can't do it do it". the speed of the class is slow, and to Chihiro, who has some knowledge of the subject, it's like resting his bones.-tinytranslation.xyz

He took it easy and let the class sink in.

Then, the homeroom teacher told the whole class.

「At the end of this month, there will be a regular exam and an ability assessment. For everyone, this will be your first assessment after entering the school, so please try to prepare as much as possible in advance」

Ability assessment for [Lost Item]. At Shibahou Academy, the results of this assessment and the regular examinations are both taken into account in determining the student's grade.

The ability judgment is especially important. As Shibahou Academy is an institution for the gifted, students with poor prospects may be dismissed from the school. On the other hand, if they perform well, they may be given some preferential treatment. This is an event of great significance to Chihiro as well.

After the homeroom teacher gives a command and leaves the room, the students are all in a buzz.

Then as he exhaling lightly while packing up his belongings, Chihiro hears the students talking.

「Kamishiro, are you going for B rank?」

「You can do it, right?」

Intrigued, he looked up to see Kamishiro smiling as he is surrounded by boys.

「Of course, I'm going for it. ...but it's going to be difficult, as expected」

There are only six ranks in total. So, even just going up one rank is quite a challenge. It is even more difficult to go from D to C or from C to B than from E to D. In particular, the number of students who are ranked B or higher is much lower, and it is said that they can find a job that makes full use of their abilities when they reach the rank.

In this class, Kamishiro and Maria have a good chance.

「Okay, bye」

「Yeah」

Chihiro left the apartment with Maria. They parted at the entrance and went their separate ways.

Riko is not with them.

She said she is going to miss school today too because her physical strength is not good enough, and that was why she had not changed into her school uniform when they ate.

Maria did not seem to be alarmed by the fact that she would be left alone in her room. After all...

「Well, I didn't leave anything there that I didn't want anyone to see」

「...And the computer?」

「I put passwords on all the logins and folders. Besides, she'd be committing a crime if she went through someone else's computer without a solid reason, wouldn't she?」

「I see」

Considering the fact that Riko would be making an enemy of Chihiro and Maria, it's unlikely that she'd be messing around in the room. With only half a day to spare, time is not on her side.

「There's also the possibility that if we show our trust, her resistance will be weaker...」

Riko even had a key so that she could bring in her personal belongings later today.

No way, she thinks it's a trap.

Saturday is a half-day class, and the content of the class is quite irregular.

To be more specific, all four periods are free choice. The students can choose from a wide range of subjects from sports, martial arts, skills training to arts and technology, except that they are not allowed to not take any classes.

The classroom lectures held in the mornings from Monday to Friday concentrate on the main subjects, and do not include practical classes such as music, art, and information processing. The main purpose of this course is to supplement what the student need from such "omitted" subjects. Of course, if someone have no particular interest, they may exercise their body to become stronger.

The classes on Saturdays are basically a set of two periods, and each student can take a maximum of two classes.

Chihiro is taking art in the first and second periods, and information processing in the third and fourth periods.

The reason why he chooses to take these courses is because he is too weak to train, and also because he wants to get a good score on his unofficial application for admission to a university. In the first place, those who have the ability to read the mind generally go on to become psychologists or counselors, so the requirements for non-motor skills are high.

In addition, Kamishiro allotted four hours to physical education and training, and Aika chose home economics and art. Unfortunately, Aika and Chihiro are not in the same class because of their class schedule. -tinytranslation.xyz

It seems that Riko chose home economics and training.

And...

「...Ah」

When Chihiro took his art bag - a big, bulky bag - to the dedicated classroom, he found Maria there.

Apparently, she is also taking art at the same time. And when she glanced at him, she said, as if to say, "Surprised?".

...Actually, he didn't expect to meet her here.

She told him later that she chose the "express yourself" course to relieve stress and clear her mind. Incidentally, she chose music as her third and fourth period elective.

As Chihiro continued to draw his subject, a still life, he took the opportunity to look into Maria's sketchbook and found that she is using her time sparingly to draw the shadows. The accuracy of her work is remarkable, but the overall level of perfection did not seem to be improving.

As for Chihiro himself, he is neither good at art nor bad at it. Although he likes sketching and other subjects where the basics are important, he is not sure what to do when it comes to landscape painting or clay work.

Perhaps he likes to spend his time quietly immersed in his work.

In a sense, it is like meditation. While he concentrates on his work, various things come to his mind. As he does so, his mind becomes calmer. Then, he began to remind something.

――This week, something happened to him.

He met Maria and made a deal with her. He was attacked decisively by Riko. And being approached by Kamishiro.

He also held Maria and Riko many, many times.

Before he knew it, the time for art ended while he is thinking about the changes which he could not even imagine a week ago.

After art class, he goes to the information processing class in the second half of the day. And it's easy.
