"Money, huh? Yeah, that's definitely a huge problem."

  Fujiwara could somewhat uand the difficulties President Shirogane faced.

  Shuchi'in Academy actually had a schorship system, if a student ranked iop three, their tuition would be pletely waived.

  It ecial reward system designed for schorship students since most of them had entered Shuchi'in based on their academic excellence.

  Naturally, those with the highest grades enjoyed additional privileges.

  But while Shuchi'in had such bes, h schools didn't necessarily offer the same financial aid.

  So, if transferring seant incurring costs he couldn't afford, the idea of following someone else to a new school would be pletely out of the question.

  "Besides tuition, there's also the matter of the school's reputation," Ren added.

  "Teitan High School is a good school, but at the end of the day, it's still a publistitution. There's a huge gap between it and private elite academies like Shuchi'in."

  "The social work built within Shuchi'in is a form of unshakable wealth."

  "There's no resident Shirogane would throw that away."

  "And after graduating from Teitan, you wouldn't receive the same level nition or career opportunities as a Shuchi'in graduate."

  It would be a miracle if students from ae private school and a regur public school were treated the same.

  Everyone khat graduating from an aristocratistitution opened far more doors.

  Ren believed that Shirogane, who had climbed to the top from ro, uood this perfectly.

  Rather than transferring to another school just to chase after Kaguya, who had already moved on, it made far more sense for him to remain as the student cil president of Shuchi'in.

  Though whether he could keep that position was another matter entirely.

  Most of Shuchi'ie didn't actually fear Shirogane Miyuki himself.

  They feared Shinomiya Kaguya.

  In terms of leadership ability, Shirogane was no more capable than previous student cil presidents.

  A, his predecessor had bee off to maea pntation.

  So why was Shirogane able to maintain his authority?

  Because everyone in Shuchi'ihat Shinomiya Kaguya was bag him.

  Fujiwara however, had some doubts.

  "Hmm… would the president really be that pragmatic~?"

  Ren shook his head slightly, correg her interpretation.

  "It's not about being pragmatic, it's about being realistic."

  "If there were even the slightest ce of him winning over Shinomiya, maybe transferring schools would make sense."

  "But Shinomiya isn't giving him that ce."

  As much as she hated to admit it, Fujiwara had to agree with Ren's reasoning.

  If Kaguya had given the president some hope, he probably would have transferred to Teitan without hesitation.

  But now that Kaguya had made her stance clear, transferring schools wouldn't ge anything.

  "Yeah… you're right."

  And besides, she also knew Kaguya's secret.

  A story from another world.

  Even she couldn't help but be intrigued by the existence of the supernatural.

  Kaguya's ability to freeze time had e from a diary.

  Was that even logical?

  Could a normal person not be curious about something like that?

  Fujiwara certainly couldn't suppress her curiosity.

  That art of the reason why she had transferred to Teitan.

  Anticipatioement.

  "Then, do you think I'll ever get one of those magical diaries?"

  "You're ied in mysteries too, huh?"

  "Hehe~ I am the great Love Detective Chika, after all. Anything mysterious piques my i."

  Fujiuffed out her chest proudly, then quickly moved closer to Ren.

  "So? I?"

  "I'd love to say yes, but I'm not the one in charge of distributing them. It's all random."

  "Random?"

  Fujiwara sat back down beside him, crossing her arms in thought.

  "A phenomenon as mysterious as this 't be purely random. Kaguya mentioned something about rules, right?"

  Ren nodded.

  "There must be a pattern."

  "But to firm it, we o see who gets the diary."

  "That said, we've already identified some of the existing rules."

  Fujierked up immediately, her eyes gleaming with i.

  "For starters, the first diary holders, Shinomiya, Mouri, and Sanzen'inbare all the heroines of the story."

  "Oh~ Heroines, huh~?"

  Fujiwara narrowed her eyes in amusement.

  "Then what about me?"

  "Am I an important supp character?"

  "Yes."

  Fujiwara was an incredibly important supp character.

  But at that moment, Reated slightly.

  "Is there something you 't say?"

  "Well… it's just that one of your niames iory isly fttering."

  "Oh! Now I definitely want to hear it!"

  Fujiwara's curiosity only grew stronger.

  "...A well-fed sow with all her nutrients trated in her chest."

  "…Eh?"

  Her expression froze.

  That was… way too harsh.

  "Well, to be fair, that was just Kaguya iory venting her frustration when you interrupted her aloime with President Shirogane."

  Fujiwara stared bnkly for a moment before slowly looking down at her chest.

  Then, she thought about Kaguya's almost ent chest.

  Gradually…

  She started to feel better.

  "Huhu~ Kaguya's jealous~!"

  "The Kaguya iory is so mean! She bmes my figure when hers is the problem!"

  As she spoke, she subsciously rolled her shoulders.

  "She has no idea how much trouble a good figure causes!"

  "First off, shoulder pain! The weight isly light, you know!"

  "Then there's physical activity! Having these around makes some things way more inve!"

  "Not to mention how I always have to be mindful of the way guys look at me!"

  Fujiwara tinued venting about the struggles of having a well-endowed figure.

  It was the kind of pint only blessed individuals could make.

  A, for the less fortuhis kind of pint was nothing short of a luxury.

  People who had everything often took it franted.

  And those who cked it… could only envy from afar.

  "Click!"

  Just as the versation was about to tihe door to the clubroom suddenly swung open.

  Bright sunlight spilled into the room.

  A petite figure stepped inside.

  Her voice, sharp and unmistakable, sent a chill down Fujiwara's spine.

  "I don't have a good figure, so I'm jealous of you. I'm so sorry, Fujiwara-san.."
