Exams

(Editor: Hello everyone. Now I will sometimes leave my comments in the chapter.

Now I am here to warn you about the offended state of the Author.

He recently read volume 9.5. But he did not like this volume.

Now he decided to take out his grudge against Ayanokōji in this chapter.

I warned you. Happy reading.)

At school.

Walking down the hallway at school, I randomly met quintuplets.

I didn't think I'd meet them so soon. Especially when they are all together.

Basically I can meet Itsuki in our class.

I can see Nino walking with her friends.

Miku is quite reserved and silent, so I can spot her alone or when she is with other sisters.

Ichika is quite popular in our school because of her work, but she can be seen during recess, but she mostly goes to work during school hours.

Yotsuba is a very generative personality, I see her all the time.

-Hello, Ayanokouji-kun.

- Hello. Today I will come to your house to test your knowledge.

- What? Are you going to make us cram again? Nino said.

- Exams tomorrow. Besides, I'll leave as soon as I check your level of knowledge.

I looked towards Itsuki. She saw my look and decided to help with the situation.

- Just one day. Why not? Itsuki said.
The rest also gave positive answers.

Nino completely rejected my idea, but I felt it was like a game on her part.

Doesn't matter. The main thing is that in the end she also agreed and gave her permission.

- See you at your house today. I said.

Then I headed in the opposite direction, going straight to the end of the corridor.

Having reached the last door, I knocked and waited for a while to be given permission to enter.

- Have you heard strange rumors at this school?

The words I said caused a lot of noise in the teachers' room.

After school in the house of quintuplets.

As soon as the front door was opened for me, I immediately gathered everyone in one place.

Almost 10 minutes later everyone was sitting in front of me.

Even I am surprised that I was able to gather them all without the slightest resistance.

Although if you remember, I said that I would leave as soon as I checked their knowledge.

-Thank you for agreeing to my idea.

-Hey Ichika, stop falling asleep. Yotsuba said.
- What? Oh sorry. Ichika said.

-Ichika, are you feeling well? I asked.

Ichika is now not only studying, but also working at the same time. Combining two activities at the same time, her body will get tired more and more often.

- Don't worry. It's just that yesterday I was studying from your notes that you gave me. Ichika said.

- Nice to hear that from you.

- Hehe, you can say that I got a little motivation.

-Okay, let's get started.

Then I ordered them to move away from each other. This is so they don't cheat on each other. Although even if they try to do it, I will just notice it.

After they sat down in different places, I gave each of them two test sheets.

Before they start, I'll explain something to them.

- You have 2 forms in front of you. Each of which has 25 questions. I divided them into two parts. 1 correct answer is equal to 4 points. The maximum you can earn is 200 points.

The first part contains questions at the level of the average student of our school. To be more precise, there are questions ranging from below average to above average student of our school.

In the second form, the questions of the level of the exam of this school ending with questions of the level of the university. Also the last five questions are the level of the White Room.

- First, I want you to solve the first part. And then after I announce the results, you will begin the second to solve the questions of the second part. Have questions?

- Only one.

- I'm listening to you, Itsuki.

- Will there be any reward?

- Hm?

I was expecting a different kind of question. I don't even know what I can offer.

- Oh, I know what I want. Ichika said.

For some reason, I have a bad feeling.

- How about one wish?

This is interesting.

- If you score more than 40 points, you can consider it a victory. I said.

- Agreed. Ichika said.

- I want to add something else. Itsuki said.

- I listen to you.

- We have two answer sheets. How about if someone gets more than 80 points on two forms combined, then he gets an additional wish.

- Interesting offer. But I will correct one point.

- And what will it be?

- To get 2 wishes you will need to score 100 points in total.

- I agree.

- Stop. Kiyotaka, I don't think that's fair. Miku said

– What do you mean Miku?

-If it's an argument, then even if you win, you won't win anything.

- It suits me.

As a result, if someone gets a passing score of 40 points, then he will receive 1 wish. If he scores 100 points in total, he gets another wish.

I wonder what they want to wish?

- Get to work.

After 10 minutes.

For some reason it evokes a feeling of nostalgia.

The sound of pencil tapping. This sound takes me back to the past.

Closing my eyes, I saw a sheet of questions and a pencil in front of me.
All around was white light.

There is no one here but me.

Opening my eyes, I again found myself in the house of quintuplets.

My problems will not go away from me.

- Hee hee.

Raising my head, I fixed my gaze on Yotsuba, who had previously made a sound of laughter.

-Kiyotaka, did you sleep well?

Looking at the clock hanging in the room, I realized that I slept for 40 minutes.

It came out awkward.

- Yeah. As I see you have already completed the first part.

Yes, just finished. Itsuki said.

- Then take the second part, and I'll check your answers.

Well, let's get started.

Let's start with the Yotsuba.

Five correct answers in Japanese. Three correct in math. Three correct in the natural sciences. Three in the social sciences. Three in English.

Total: 68 points out of 100.

Now Ichika.

Three correct in Japanese. Five correct in math. Three correct in the natural sciences. Three correct in the social sciences. Four in English.

Total: 72 points out of 100.

Now Nino.

Three correct in Japanese. Three in math. Four in natural sciences. Three in the social sciences. Five in English.

Total: 72 points out of 100.

Next Miku.

Four in Japanese. Four in math. Four in natural sciences. Five in social sciences. Three in English.

Total: 80 points out of 100.

And the last one will be Itsuki.

Four in Japanese. Three in math. Five in natural sciences. Three in the social sciences. Four in English.

Total: 76 points out of 100.

Impressive result.

Now I can say that they are now about or above the level of the average student in our school.

Speaking of school. Very soon its gates will be closed.

There is nothing special to do. And after the study session, I have no plans.

In the meantime, I better sleep again.

After 40 minutes.

When I opened my eyes, I realized that I was used to this house. If I had been here for the first time, I would hardly have fallen asleep so quickly.

Working as a tutor gave me this opportunity. What would happen if I made a different decision? And what should I do after this job? I think somewhere in the future I will see the answer.

While I was thinking about what to do after work as a tutor. The quintuplets are done with the second part.

I gave them the results of the first part and began to check the second.

- Hooray! I scored over 60 points. The Yotsuba screamed.

- Do Nino and I have the same number of points? I thought I'd be the first. Ichika said.

- I'm happy with a draw. Nino said.

- Looks like Miku and I had a good fight for first place. But in the end, I lost. Itsuki said.

- Yes, you fought well, Itsuki. Miku said.

While they were talking among themselves, I took out 5 more sheets. But this time, no questions.

- Take them. There are hints and several ways to solve problems for each question. You can study them because you will need it.

Is this something you use all the time? Itsuki asked.

- You can say that.

- If you had given it to us from the very beginning, then we would not have had to spend so much time on cramming. Nino said.

- You wouldn't be able to understand them without basic knowledge.

There was a very high probability that if I gave this copy at the beginning of our training, then the quintuplets would score on this copy right away due to the fact that they would not have enough knowledge.

But after they had an idea and the ability to solve more complex examples, they easily understood the whole point.

-Now with this you can sort out your own mistakes.

I put the failed test of the second part on the table.

- No one scored even 20 points. However, each of you was able to answer 2 or more questions. I didn't want to reveal it, but in the second part there are university-level questions.

Maybe it was luck, but they managed to answer such difficult questions.

- This explains why I had to re-read the question over and over again to understand it. Miku said.

- You did a very good job. You have potential. You just need to point it in the right direction.

For them, it will be a difficult and long journey, but they have a chance even to get into the top 50 students of our school.

- Ha-ha-ha. Nino let out a laugh.

Come to think of it, she had held herself back for a while until now.

What made her laugh?

- Oh, I'm sorry. Nino said.

- Did I say something funny? I asked.

- Oh, don't worry. You said you would leave after you tested our knowledge. Am I right?

- Um, Ayanokoji-kun. Before you leave, you'd better wash up in our bathtub.

-Well, I can't hold back any longer! Ha ha ha! Yotsuba started laughing.

Third person view.

Ayanokouji went to the bathroom.

Nino: Ha ha ha. I can't believe he said that with a straight face!

Miku: Even for you, it was too much, Nino.

Nino: Oh, come on. This is just a joke.

Ichika: It's funny, but don't forget to apologize to him.

Itsuki: I agree with Ichika. You should apologize to Ayanokouji-kun.

Itsuki: (Even though I say so, I didn't even stop Nino from doing that.)

Ichika: (But it was still funny to see him with that face. I can hardly help laughing.)

Ayanokouji pov.

Standing in front of the mirror, I feel strange feelings inside me.

I don't know how to describe them, but if expressed, then I think it's possible to say that this is anger?

And how did I not notice this?

After washing my face and wiping it with a towel, I left the bathroom.

The quintuplets were waiting for me downstairs.

"Now we can definitely say goodbye. All for now. I said.

- See you tomorrow. Miku said.

- Don't worry. When you leave, I will continue to study. Ichika said.

- I will continue in the same spirit! Yotsuba said.

-Will you forgive Nino?" Itsuki said.

- I'm not offended. It's my fault for not paying attention. See you tomorrow at school.

-Yes, bye bye, Pretty Woman. Nino said.

The next day. Morning. School.

The time on the clock is approaching 8:00.

Itsuki is still not in class.

There's still time before the exam, but it's best to call her just in case.

I dialed Itsuki's number, but there was no answer.

I sent her a message that she was still not in class. And asked where she was.

No answer.

Lessons will start at 8:30. I think I can still make it.

I have 25 more minutes.

After some time.

Finally, one of the quintuplets answered the call.

- hello?

- Have you seen what time it is?

- Time? Ahh! Wake up! We overslept!

On the other end of the line, the voices of others are heard.

- Why didn't any of us get up?

- There are 15 minutes left. This is bad...

- Can we have breakfast?

- Has anyone seen my makeup?

- So I want to sleep ...

- There's a doorbell. Look who's there.

- I will open!

I heard hurried footsteps approaching the door, after which the door was opened for me.

- Thank you for opening the door for me, Yotsuba. I said.

- Ayanokouji? Yotsuba is shocked.

- Yotsuba, who came there? Itsuki asked.

- The situation is clear to me. Heed my orders.

Scattered school supplies, books, notebooks. Blankets and pillows in different places. When I left, they continued to practice on their own in the same room. This proves the many notes in the textbook and notebook. It looks like they studied until late at night until they fell asleep.

I can even see correctly solved problems from the second part. How smart have they become?

-Ayanokouji-kun? You wrote that you were waiting for us at school.

- There is no time to explain this. We need to hurry.

After they left the house.

Now we are running to school. I can't let them be late for school. If they're late for school, then I'll have to justify myself to their father, which is such a hassle.

- Guys, you are too slow! I ran ahead, Ayanokouji-san. The Yotsuba ran away.

It will be great if at least one is not late, but it is better if no one is late.

- Didn't a car usually pick you up?" I asked.

- Ebata-san used to drive us to school Miku said.

- It would be great if dad was at home. Ichika said.

- Yeah, if we keep up this pace all the way to school, we might still make it.

There is still time. Now the most important thing is not to be distracted by extraneous things.

Speaking of which. Behind me, I noticed Nino examining his face through the phone's camera.

- Ah, I still had to put on makeup. I don't want people to see me without makeup. Nino said.

- You all look great without him. Therefore, it is better not to be distracted by such things for now.

- Shut up! And don't say that again!

The Yotsuba trail is no longer visible. She must be at school by now.

While we were running, Ichika decided to speak.

- Shouldn't one of the teachers be right at the entrance?" If we're late, the last thing we'll think about is the test.

- I know it.

Itsuki, who is now running in front of me, starts to slow down.

- I can't run anymore... This is my limit... I'm so hungry that I'm falling down...

I tried to encourage Itsuki to keep running, but unfortunately we ended up in the bake shop.

And then Miku and Ichika helped a little foreigner boy find the central hospital. As it turned out, this boy lost his mother.

- I'm so glad we were able to find his mom. Ichika said.

- That's all well and good, but have you forgotten anything?

I took out my phone and showed the time. 8:33.

- We are late. The test is about to start.

-Wh-what should we do? Itsuki asked.

- It was close. The school is right around the corner. Miku said.

- That's just ... Will the teacher let us through? Ichika said.

I took out my phone and started dialing the number.

- And what did you think? Nino asked.

- Hello, Yotsuba? Are you at school now? Great. Follow my instructions.

Third person view.

There is a teacher at the entrance to the school.

Suddenly, a door opened behind him and a student stepped out.

Yotsuba: Teacher, I need your help!

Teacher: What? What happened?

Yotsuba: The man was locked in the gym!

Teacher: Who did it?

Now the two of them go to the school stadium where the sports equipment is located.

The teacher removes the barricade from the door and then opens the door.

Ayanokouji: ha, thanks for getting me out of there. It was so hot there.

Teacher: You better tell me who did it?

Ayanokouji: Unfortunately, I didn't see who did it.

Teacher: Okay, better hurry up and go to class.

Ayanokouji pov.

Yotsuba and I walked down the corridor until we met the remaining sisters.

- Phew, that was hard. Yotsuba said.

- Honestly, use Yotsuba to lock you in the sports equipment room and then use that to distract the teacher to get you out. Did you come up with it right away? Ichika said.

- I just did what first came to mind.

- Okay, now it's our turn. Ichika said.

- Yes! Mika said.

-Let's surprise Kiyotaka with our grades! Ichika said.

- Nino, you try too! Yotsuba said.

- I'll try. Nino said

- Come on, girls, now everything will be in our hands. Itsuki said.

- Let's do it!!!

- Yes!

Third person view.

Intermediate exams.

The teacher checks the time on his watch.

Teacher: There are 10 minutes left.

After that, he looked at a certain student. Who looks straight out the window.

Teacher: (What's the problem, Ayanokouji? You came to the staff room yesterday and brought a stack of last year's exam questions with you. I had to prepare new questions all night because of you.)

Ayanokouji: (He's been staring at me for a minute.)

Teacher: (I hope you enjoy it to the fullest! Because I have prepared the most difficult questions especially for you.)

Ayanokouji: (I wonder how the others are doing?)

Venue Social Sciences.

Miku: (As expected, the questions are difficult. But I can answer. I wonder what expression Kiyotaka would have if I scored higher than him?)

Miku wrote a few more answers.

Venue Japanese language.

Yotsuba: Hmmm...

Yotsuba: (Oh, I remember. They say that the fourth answer has the highest chance of being correct.)

She suddenly stopped before writing a reply.

Yotsuba: (No. I need to stop thinking like that. I know the right answer.)

Venue English Language.

Nino: ("Debate", "Debate". If I don't remember, I'll skip it.)

She remembered the words of her tutor. "Remember, 'Debate' means to discuss something."

Nino: (Stop messing with my head in the middle of the dough.)

Venue Mathematics.

Ichika: (Finished. It was easy. Maybe take a nap.)

Ichika was about to take a nap, but decided not to.

Ichika: (Hmm. I'll check again just in case.)

Venue Natural Sciences.

Itsuki: (I won't let you quit.)

Itsuki remembered talking to her father on the phone.

- I said that I would fire him if even one of you failed.

Itsuki: (I'll check everything again)

Ayanokouji pov.

The next day the teacher gave us the results of yesterday's exam.

- Well. Sorry to bring you all here.

The quintuplets and I met in the library to see the results of each.

- What's happened? Why did he start speaking so formally? Ichika said.

- Just like a stranger. Yotsuba said.

- Debriefing after the exam. Don't forget to teach us the things we failed at, okay? Miku said.

- Absolutely, but first show me your results.

Now I have the results in my hands. Let's see.

Subjects in order: Japanese, Mathematics, Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, English.

Yotsuba received: 62, 32, 37, 41, 31. Total 203.

Miku received: 43, 45, 33, 76, 35. Total 232.

Ichika received: 35, 63, 44, 32, 48. Total 222.

Nino received: 34, 36, 46, 35, 69. 220 in total.

Itsuki got: 39, 34, 73, 37, 40. Total 223.

(Editor: random numbers.)

This is victory. Each of them received a passing mark in each subject.

- Well done. I said.

- What about you? How many points did you score? Ichika asked.

I show her my results.

The rest also became interested and they also decided to look.

- What the heck? You only have half in all subjects!? Nino said.

-Wow, you must be that manga character who hides his abilities, but actually... Yotsuba said.

Yotsuba then talks about a popular manga she read.

- But in fact, he does it in order to live a normal school life. Yotsuba finally finished speaking.

-Um, that sounds interesting. I said.

Just at that moment, Itsuki's phone rang.

- This is Dad. Itsuki said.

I took the phone from her and answered the call.

- This is Ayanokouji.

- Oh, so you're with Itsuki. At first I wanted to talk to them in person, but since you're here, let me hear it from you.

- Will you believe my words?

-Even if you lie, I will still find out the truth.

- Well, if so, then I will say that everyone passed. If you don't believe me, ask your daughters. They are right next to each other.

I gave the phone to Nino. She confirmed my words. After that, he believed and told them to continue to work with me.

I picked up the phone again to say one last thing.

- I hope you remember what you promised me.

Then I hung up.

So, now I need to tell the quintuplets that their father promised me.

- What are these words? Our father turns out to be your debtor? Ichika asked.

- You're hiding something? Along with our father. Miku said.

- I don't feel like explaining everything right now, so Itsuki will do it. I said.

- What? What are you talking about? Itsuki said.

-Remember the previous time you gave me your phone number. After all, you asked your father about it later.

Memories Itsuki.

- This is an attempt to manipulate me. You will regret her. Ayanokouji-kun said his last words before ending the call.

What did he mean by these words? I need to find out before he leaves.

So wait, he may not answer it if I ask directly. We must start with another question.

- What did my father say?

- Nothing interesting. He said as he returned my phone.

- It's hard to believe, considering I heard you talking to him at the end.

After that, he declines to answer. And we're leaving. Later, I asked my dad, and he said that if one of us fails the exam, then he will fire Ayanokouji-kun.

Again Ayanokouji pov.

- Ahh, about that. In general, listen. Itsuki snapped out of her memories.

Itsuki further said that if even one of them failed even one subject in the exam, then I would be fired.

- And why did he set such a condition? Nino asked.

- Obviously, to see if I'm suitable for the job. I answered.

- And yet, it turns out now you will continue our studies? Is this what our dad promised? Miku asked.

- Yeah, that's exactly it.

- And I already thought that you would manage it somehow. Ichika said.

Now all doubts have been dispelled. Itsuki helped me very well with this. A person will trust the words of a neighbor person.

In fact, there is much more behind that promise than just continuing to work as a tutor.

- By the way, have you already thought about what you will spend your desires on? I asked.

- Oh, we decided this yesterday, when you left. Itsuki said.

- What do you want to wish?

- Actually, we want to save the wish for later. Itsuki said.

- Because... They started talking at the same time.

- It's a secret.

×××

Good day.

I will officially say, but this is the most difficult chapter so far.

In general, tell me how you like to read such chapters, where I try to describe in my own way how their classes go?

I recently realized that I love to offend the main characters in my fantasies. That's why I added Nino's prank where she puts makeup on Ayano's face.

I don't know if you liked it, but the editor laughed.

While I was writing this chapter, the editor suggested dividing it into two parts, but I refused and wrote it to the end. Finally, here is the chapter.

Luffy's Gear 5 will be revealed very soon. Hooray! Finally, I've been waiting for this moment.

I think that's all.

Words: 4067.
