The Purpose of a Character Persona
Qianshu Lian naturally couldn't know about Yukino Yukinoshita's resentment, after all, the related abilities he acquired didn't include mind-reading or anything of the sort.
Moreover, he hadn't, like his seniors, lived alone in this world for so long that his thinking diverged greatly from ordinary people.
So, Qianshu Lian also didn't constantly think about using his power to easily acquire others' thoughts to see what they were truly thinking deep down.
"Good morning, Snow Below~"
It was precisely because of this that Qianshu Lian responded quite enthusiastically to Yukino Yukinoshita's greeting.
This left Yukino Yukinoshita's overflowing resentment with nowhere to vent, forcing her to suppress it herself.
"It just so happens that we'll meet at the club activity room this afternoon; I have something important to tell everyone clearly."
Qianshu Lian sat in his seat, turning his head to speak to Yukino Yukinoshita.
As long as he made it clear to his deskmate, basically everyone else in the club would also be clear.
Although he didn't know why, his deskmate seemed quite responsible when it came to his matters.
Even if he had already told the other friends in the club about something, Yukino Yukinoshita would still remind them again later.
If he hadn't said anything, then Yukino Yukinoshita would be even less likely to forget.
After all, regarding his affairs, Yukino Yukinoshita, as his deskmate, had far more avenues for understanding than his other club friends.
"Don't worry, I'll notify them. Wouldn't it be easier if you just sent a notification in the mobile chat group?"
Yukino Yukinoshita complained with a hint of resentment, yet without the slightest hesitation, she took out her phone and posted the message Qianshu Lian had just mentioned in the chat group.
Soon after, the chat group, which had been mostly quiet, saw several 'understood' replies pop up.
Ah, so you all brought your phones to school!
Isn't this a coincidence? I brought mine too.
Qianshu Lian looked at the group members who immediately replied to the message without any delay on his phone screen and couldn't help but sigh, the schools in this country are quite lenient with phone control.
At least in Qianshu Lian's original country, by high school, aside from when phones were distributed, taking out any electronic product at other times, if you weren't careful, was considered disrespectful to the teacher.
But now, Yukino Yukinoshita and he could openly and unreservedly take them out in the school classroom, and the other students who saw them didn't show any surprise, because they definitely had them too.
The tasks arranged by the school today were still quite relaxed; at least, this state would continue until the school's campus festival concluded.
Faced with this situation, not only ordinary students but even top students like Qianshu Lian and Yukino Yukinoshita were happy to take it easy.
After Sakura Megumi, the homeroom teacher, finished assigning the respective tasks on the podium, she announced the class's dismissal.
Students who were important club members naturally couldn't be forcibly pulled to be responsible for class programs, but students who weren't as central in their respective clubs would be pulled over to assist with class activities.
Typical examples of students who weren't pulled in to help were Qianshu Lian, Yukino Yukinoshita, and Sakura Chiyo. Qianshu Lian goes without saying; after all, he was a student who had bribed the principal, so he had certain privileges in this regard, not to mention being a club president.
Identities like Godslayer didn't even need to be brought up in this school; just the relationship he had established with the principal before was enough. Furthermore, the current principal should also be under the scrutiny of the True History Compilation Committee, right?
Yukino Yukinoshita's inherent attributes ensured that she couldn't be forcibly pulled into class activities. Sakura Chiyo, on the other hand, was primarily because, in addition to joining the art club, she also joined the club Qianshu Lian was in, serving in two clubs, which is why she wasn't pulled in.
First-year students generally don't hold too important positions in clubs, unless they are truly exceptionally gifted. Therefore, Qianshu Lian's class easily gathered the necessary personnel for arranging the class's activities.
As for what they specifically planned to do, Qianshu Lian, who had already left with Yukino Yukinoshita and Sakura Chiyo, had no way of knowing.
When Qianshu Lian arrived at the club activity room, the door was already open, and Hachiman Hikigaya, Yui Yuigahama, Kasumigaoka Shiwa, and Sawamura, Spencer, Eriri had already taken their respective seats.
"Only now do I realize the benefit of having few people in a club. Everyone is a core member, basically indispensable for arranging club activities."
Seeing Qianshu Lian walk in with Yukino Yukinoshita and Sakura Chiyo, Hachiman Hikigaya finally spoke.
"Xiao Qi is right. If it weren't for the excuse that there are too few people in the club and I'm needed to help arrange related activities, I wouldn't have been able to get away."
Yui Yuigahama also responded. As ordinary students who weren't particularly outstanding in class, both Hachiman Hikigaya and she could easily be called upon to help.
Fortunately, this time they found an excuse, because no one knew how their club's arrangements were progressing.
Using this information gap allowed them to steal some leisure time while other students were busy.
"That's your misstep, juniors~" Kasumigaoka Shiwa lifted her head from her book, looking at Hachiman Hikigaya and the others.
"Establishing your character persona is very useful. For example, because of my persona, I haven't had to personally arrange any school activities from middle school until now."
"Well, of course, for a senior like you, a simple shout and there'll be plenty of students and seniors willing to help~~~" Sawamura, Spencer, Eriri said with a deliberately strange tone.
"Heh heh, then what about the ace of our art club, the widely admired young lady?"
Kasumigaoka Shiwa retorted calmly, and this question instantly silenced Ying Lili.
Because whether it was her identity as the ace of the art club or her persona as the widely admired young lady, both were sufficient to exempt her from these unnecessary activities.
To some extent, the effects of personas like a cool, literary, scholarly girl or a well-mannered young lady were similar.
Both exempted them from unnecessary troubles, and even if they stayed by themselves, people wouldn't consider them students with isolated personalities.
What was that phrase again---- 'Highland Flower'?
