Chapter 1: Game Start Part 2

Start from the beginning
                                        

Yamauchi: "Ken, is that you?"

Sudo: "It's me, so what?"

Yamauchi: "No, just..."

Ike: "A lot of unexpected things happened."

"We showed you, sensei! When we try our best, we can do anything!"

Ike wore a smug, confident look.

Shinohara: "Stupid"

Ike : "Shut up, ugly"

"Yes, I recognize that. You all did very well. However—"

Chiyabashira-sensei held a red pen in her hand. Sudou unintentionally let out a

"Huh?"

She drew a red line right above Sudou's name.

"Wh-what is that? What does that mean?"

"You failed, Sudou."

1st Year Student: "Hah why he fails"

Nanase: "Isn't that the class average"

Asahina: "It's not like that Nanase-chan, you will know"

"Huh? You're lying, right? Don't give me that crap! Why did I fail?" he cried.

Of course, Sudou was the first one to protest this. In response to Sudou's failing grade, the entire classroom did a complete eighty. We stopped our delighted cheering and erupted in confusion.

"Sudou, you failed the English exam. That's all."

"Don't screw with me! I got thirty-two points! I passed!"

"When did anyone say that thirty-two points was were a passing grade?"

"No, no. You said so, sensei! Right, everyone?" shouted Ike.

"Say whatever you want, it won't matter. This is the undeniable truth. You had to score at least a forty to pass the midterm exam. In other words, you were just one point short. You were so close."

"F-forty?! You never told us about this! I won't accept it!"

"Should I tell you how we determine the passing grade?"

Chiyabashira-sensei wrote a simple formula on the blackboard: 79.6 divided by 2 equals 39.8.

"We set a passing grade for eual class, just as we did for the last test. We calculated that number by dividing the average score by two. That's how we arrived at our answer."

Nanase: "So that's it"

Amasawa: "Did you just know Nanase-chan, I thought you were a smart person"

Nanase: "Well because at the beginning of school I focused on taking care of other interests"

That interest probably meant me before the second-year island exam

In other words, anything at 39.8 or lower was considered failing.

"I provided proof that you failed. That's all."

"No way... So... Does that mean I'm going to be expelled?"

"Although your time here was short, you fought valiantly. You'll be asked to fill out a withdrawal form after class, but you will need to have a legal guardian present when you do so. I'll contact them for you."

As we witnessed the scene unfold, the teacher rattling off the information as if she were casually giving a report, we finally realized that this was actually happening.
