Chapter 192.2: Committee Member And Person In Charge I
Yup, just as I expected, everyone had a lot of questions about personnel placement.
「There, there, calm down first, I’ll explain. Ah, Class Rep has already explained to Tendou-kun about this matter. She’s in charge of him, after all.」
「Haah, it really can’t be helped. The only one who can look after him is me after all.」
「Hey, stop with this “In Charge” joke-like duty.」
「Okay, come with me, Ryuichi, I’ll explain it to you.」
Class Rep, who dragged Tendou-kun away from the rest of us, looked bright and sunny.
Yeah, Class Rep’s raison d’ĂȘtre was to look after Tendou-kun. I mean, she must’ve a lot of pent-up frustration due to dealing with so many kinds of troubles, thus I created a chance for her to vent that stress. There was prohibition of love relationship among our rules, but I was quite sure that nothing was gonna happen between them.
In a certain meaning, taking care of Tendou-kun was a kind of tranquilizer for Class Rep, but the true goal behind this duty was to secure a special treatment for him.
The reason for this wasn’t really that we wanted to give him special treatment, it was more because Tendou-kun didn’t seem to be willing to cooperate even in the current situation. In short, my title as class rep wasn’t enough for me to order him around.
Though our rules were imperfect, breaking them would only create antipathy. And those rules had the worst compatibility with Tendou-kun, a natural born rogue. He’d abide by it if he felt like it, and vice versa— a selfish person through and through.
In fact, I couldn’t imagine Tendou-kun willingly sweeping the floor. Yet, I saw Class Rep forcefully pulling him.
With the above example, it would be much more efficient to treat the rogue Tendou-kun as an exception from the very beginning. I mean, everyone must have known just how much Class Rep had suffered from nitpicking Tendou-kun every single time.
Thus, Tendou-kun was allowed to move freely, with Class Rep tagging him along. Naturally, I wanted him to do his best in assisting the subjugation of Yamata no Orochi.
「Well then, take care of Tendou-kun, Class Rep, leave the matter of explaining the roles division to me. Also, please stop quarreling for a moment, Randou-san, Sakura.」
「What’s with that sudden overly familiar way of calling, add honorific! I don’t think I’ve ever given you the permission to call me in such familiar way!」
「E~h, well, even I unknowingly called you without honorific, you know? Well, that will make us sound closer.」
「Don’t mess with me. The title “class representative” is ill suited to you.」
「I agree with you.」
「Momokawa, that’s enough! I also
 No, stop this useless quarrel already.」
「Ahahaha, look Mei-chan, Souma-kun started retorting as soon as Class Rep isn’t around.」
「But he has yet to reach Class Rep’s level of retort.」
「Yeah, he lacks training.」
「Hey, stop talking as if this matter is unrelated to you.」
「Well, I’ve nothing to say since you’ve already stopped your little sister.」
「And who do you think has caused this
」
「Eh, it’s you right, Souma? It’s because you’ve someone who easily snaps at the others with a simple provocation. You should do your duty properly as an “Onii-chan” to keep your troublesome little sister in check you know.」
Whoops, Randou-san’s retort was truly ruthless.
In fact, she was also pissed off by Souma Sakura who kept yapping non-stop. This matter wouldn’t become so complicated if only she could be quiet like a good child.
Her reckless remark had triggered a war of opinion

「I understand, Randou-san. I’ll remind her to not make any trouble again.」
「Big Brother! Don’t listen to this woman!」
「Sakura, I won’t say that everything is your fault, but everyone in this place has to work together. You can’t always nitpick on everything
 That’s why I was chosen as the public morals committee」
「Correct, Souma-kun.」
It’s just as he said. You might not trust me, but I trust in your character.
As much as I hate to say it, Souma Yuuto was truly a man with a strong sense of justice. If we exclude Class Rep, you could say that he was the most suitable person as the chief of public morals committee. But then, his inflexible train of thought almost rivalled that of his little sister, Sakura.
The thing that shook his sense of justice was his hatred toward the killer of his childhood friend, me. On the other hand, my case aside, Souma-kun could be impartial to everyone.
「If possible, I want public morals committee to stop incidents like just now. I won’t say something as grandiose as maintaining public security, but I want them to be the peacemaker for any kind of quarrel. That’s why both Class Rep and me think that Souma-kun is the most suited person for that.」
「So, why must I become the vice chief?」
「Well, it’s to give the most impartial judgement. If Souma Sakura is the vice chief, it’ll become special police instead of public morals committee.」
「You’ve thought that far huh, Momokawa.」
Whoops, the chief of public morals committeee started to enter the fray.
「But well, there’s a saying that a fish can’t live in extremely clean river, right?」
「Well, sure enough
 Sakura does have an obstinate side to her.」
「Yo-You actually agree with him, Big Brother!?」
Wait a minute, this situation
 Could it be that Sakura-chan had never realized this?
「What I’m trying to say is that Souma-kun is the strict police, and Randou-san is the flexible police.」
「E~h, nice idea, Momokawa~」
「Agreed. And it’s more reassuring since there’s Randou-san from the girl’s side, right?」
「I don’t want to be caught by Souma though.」
「This is the best mediation plan. And when it happens, we will hold another class meeting.」
In fact, the reason I chose Randou-san as the vice chief of public morals committee was for power balance.
I, no, I think everyone had at least noticed this fact, that some faction had already been formed in this gathering of 18 students.
Hero faction centered around Souma Yuuto’s harem.
And my mish-mash faction.
Number-wise, I won, but the Souma-harem party won in terms of solidarity. So it was quantity versus quality.
If the one I chose as the vice chief of public morals committee was someone from the Souma faction, I definitely wouldn’t chose Sakura. In short, I favoured those from my side.
I believed in Souma-kun’s personality, but I wouldn’t blindly trust it. I mean, he was also a man, I’m sure that if something happened to one of his harem, he would prioritize them over making impartial judgement. In fact, it had happened once before, when he didn’t pursue Kenzaki’s murder attempt.
In that regard, by placing Randou-san, whose judgement wouldn’t clouded by Souma harem, both factions could maintain impartial judgement.
Moreover, if Souma-kun and Randou-san had different opinions, the situation wouldn’t spiral down to killing each other. I mean look, if Sakura and I were in charge of public morals committee, a little incident would turn into a duel immediately.
「That’s why I’ll leave this matter to you, Randou-san.」
「Well, I guess it can’t be helped since Momokawa said so.」
「Thank you, Randou-san.」
She accepted her role, albeit reluctantly.
「Well then, best regards, Randou-san.」
「Yeah, me too, Souma. And stop acting familiar like that with me, the gazes of your women is scaring me.」
Randou-san rejected the offer for handshake from the ever smiling Souma-kun with a bored look on her face.
「Eh, wha-what do you mean?」
「Think of it yourse~lf」
Ooh, here it comes, blockhead correction of Souma-kun. Let’s keep him as he was for a while. There was a love relationship prohibition among our rules after all.
