Actually, Endo Etomi had many things which he did not disclose. For example, he did not tell that Sakura Kyu Academy’s atmosphere problem was correlated with Kazuki.

Also, he did not tell that the members from Sword Believers’ Club were all rebellious teens. They only had drastic improvements in their academic performances throughout this year and able to reach the average mark from the lower end.

These were all closely related to Kazuki.

That was also why he immediately thought of Kazuki when Furuhashi Harashin told him that he was looking for a private tutor. It was a shame that Director Furuhashi was looking for a female teacher.

However, Director Furuhashi was going to send someone to investigate the matter. By that time, he would have more of an understanding regarding this.

Looks like Kazuki will get this job. Endo Etomi thought to himself. After exchanging greetings with Furuhashi Harashin, the two of them ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, Endo Etomi glanced at Kazuki, who was sipping his tea on the couch. He was calm and steady, which was also one of the reasons he admired him the most.

“Kazuki... Director Furuhashi agreed to send someone here to investigate next week.” Endo Etomi smiled, “Based on how Director Furuhashi spoke, the chances of you to get hired is really high.”

Upon hearing that, Kazuki sighed in relief. A slight chance was better than no chances at all, “Thank you, principal.”

“You don’t have to thank me,” Endo Etomi waved his hand, “Actually, Director Furuhashi and I should be the ones thanking you. You’re the one who corrected the atmosphere of Sakura Kyu Academy. You should seize this opportunity of becoming their private tutor and don’t say anything unnecessary. I have no idea how Director Furuhashi will investigate you, so you should prepare yourself in these two days.”

“Alright.” Kazuki bid him goodbye after thanking him.

In the end, Kazuki did not manage to discuss the matter regarding Kazuki’s Fan Club... Initially, he wanted to ask the principal to abolish the club. But looking at the situation now, he tried to secure this job as a private tutor. It would be better for him not to get into any trouble.

He was not sure that he could really abolish the fan club as Furuhashi Natsui could just change the name of the fan club and continue the activities. There was nothing he could do about it.

So in the end, Kazuki was too lazy to look into it.

Walking out from the principal’s office, Kazuki was prepared to head home. After activating sword’s spirit, he did not go to the abandoned teaching building at the mountain at the back. As for the private tutor job, it would be great if he could pass the test. But it was also reasonable if he failed.

Kazuki saw Furuhashi Harunaka when he started to walk.

Although they were quadruplets, the Furuhashi quadruplets were quite easy to differentiate due to their different hairstyles.

“Senpai,” Furuhashi Harunaka hid her distress as soon as she saw Kazuki. She greeted him with a smile.

Kazuki looked at her and to the side. Furuhashi Harunaka just came out from the office of the student council. He was someone who did not have much curiosity. However, after some contemplation, he asked out of the blue, “What is the matter?”

Furuhashi Harunaka expected him to nod coldly like how he always did when she greeted him. It was unbelievable that Kazuki noticed her vexation and bothered to express his concern about her.

Although she did not pick up any expression on Kazuki’s face that indicated that he was concerned, she still assumed so. She smirked before she remembered his identity as the president of the student council. She then proceeded to tell him.

“Senpai, is it true that more new students are coming to Sakura Kyu Academy recently? The members of the Kendo Association increased, but we do not have enough uniforms, masks, and bamboo swords for our members. So I am here to request for funds for my association.”

Kazuki frowned slightly, “Aren’t you a new student? How did you become the president of an association once you entered?”

He remembered about the application for funds for associations. Usually, president or vice president of the association would be the ones who write reports to request for funds. It was hard to believe that Furuhashi Harunaka, a new student, became the president of an association so soon.

Furuhashi Harunaka glanced at Kazuki and said without an ounce of embarrassment, “Actually, it was because of you, senpai... Our president knew that you were sitting at the same table with us during the lunch break. So, he asked me to submit an application for funds for our association.”

The students in school knew that the president of the student council, Yanagawa Izumi, was a member of Sword Believers’ Club and Kazuki was the president of the Sword Believers’ Club. Since Furuhashi Harunaka and Kazuki knew each other, the chances of getting funds for their association was very high.

I see.

Kazuki said faintly, “Follow me.” He went and knocked on the door of the student council’s office. He then proceeded to enter the room without waiting for any response.

There were only four students in the office.

The president, vice president, secretary, and accountant were there.

Of course, there were more than four members in the student council. However, Yanagawa Izumi and his committee had to stay in the student council’s office as long as club activities had not ended.

There were two male students and two female students. The president and the vice president were the members of the Sword Believers’ Club while the secretary and the accountant was a sophomore and a junior female student respectively.

People would not feel tired when they worked with another gender, and Kazuki understood this principle deeply.

“President,” the four students, including Yanagawa Izumi, stood up subconsciously and greeted Kazuki when they saw him walking into the room.

Yanagawa Izumi had sharp sight. He noticed that Furuhashi Harunaka was behind Kazuki instantly.

Not only him, but the rest of them also noticed too.

Oh my God, she really knows the president.

Yanagawa Izumi got a headache as he recalled that he just rejected Furuhashi Harunaka’s request for funds for her association.

Kazuki stepped into the room, greeted each of them then asked straight to the point, “Does the student council still have extra funds?”

“Yes... We can cut down the funds for the Basketball Club and Baseball Club and move those funds to the Kendo Association.” Yanagawa Izumi said eagerly.

Although this outcome was predictable, Furuhashi Harunaka was still in shock. Senpai has a significant influence in Sakura Kyu Academy indeed.

But if the funds for the Basketball Club and Baseball Club are cut down and transferred to the Kendo Association, wouldn’t this cause some conflict between our clubs? Furuhashi Harunaka was worried. She bit her lip, held back her thoughts, and wanted to reject the suggestion.

Kazuki waved his hand and said, “The funds for the Basketball Club and Baseball Club should be maintained. The funds for the Kendo Association can be transferred from the Sword Believers’ Club.”

Sakura Kyu Academy had four popular associations which were the Basketball Club, Baseball Club, Karate Club, and Mahjong Club.

These four associations had won some good rankings in friendly competitions with other schools. Although they were never the champion, they still had certain fame. This had been a catalyst when it came to the enrolling of new students to the academy. Therefore, their funds could not be cut down.

However, there was a necessary expenditure for each and every society. So, to establish a new association, some strict verifications must be passed. For example, the Kazuki’s Fan Club founded by Furuhashi Natsui, might not even exist if it was not for the principal.

The Sword Believers’ Club was an exception. Although it got the principal’s approval, the members of the Sword Believers’ Club were free to join other societies.

Hence, the Sword Believers’ Club did not need any funds, and Kazuki did not ask for necessary monthly expenditures. He asked Yanagawa Izumi to save up all the funds from the Sword Believers’ Club for cases of emergency only.

Now that Furuhashi Harunaka was representing the Kendo Association in applying for funds, this was the best time to use the money.

“Sure!” Yanagawa Izumi did not decline. He looked at Furuhashi Harunaka and said, “Furuhashi-san, please ask Obata-san to write an application and submit to the student council tomorrow. We will approve the application as soon as possible.”

“Thank you, president,” Furuhashi Harunaka replied with a slight smile.

You should thank the president. Instead, Yanagawa Izumi wanted to tease her, but since Kazuki was there, he could only answer sternly, “You’re welcome.”

When Kazuki and Furuhashi Harunaka headed out of the student council’s office, Furuhashi Harunaka bowed slightly and said with sincerity, “Thank you so much, senpai.” She knew that Kendo Association could only have obtained this fund because of Kimura Senpai’s decisive role. It would be impossible for her to get the fund by herself.

“The Kendo Association have to rely on themselves if they wanted to obtain funds more easily in the future. If the Kendo Association can win some rankings on some big competitions, the process of applying for funds would be much easier.”

“Understood, senpai!” Furuhashi Harunaka answered with a serious face, “I will make sure that Kendo Association will get some high ranking in this year’s nationwide competition!”

“Good luck to you. If there is nothing else, I will leave first.”

“Erm... Kimura Senpai, can we exchange our numbers, if you don’t mind?”

Furuhashi Harunaka looked up for a moment after receiving zero response from Kazuki. The only thing she could see was the silhouette of him leaving.

“...”
