Ayanokouji POV
After some days pass, we all started training for the sports festival. All of Class S was on the field doing exercise routines and other things that would allow them to train. Some key things to list:
1. Currently in our team. Suzaku and I are the coaches as we try to help the less athletic students. We subjected them to push-ups, lifting weights, squats and all the normal stuff to make the body physically strong. It was easy for the likes of Ryuzaki since he did play sports like tennis before, Yumeko was pretty motivated even though she doesn't play much sports, and Tatsuya made most of the exercise routines look like nothing, he's definitely strong that's for sure. As for people like Yuuichi, Sora, Shiro, and Miyuki. This was kinda hard. Sora and Shiro have always played video games and barely done any physical activities in their lives, so Suzaku had to motivate these two.
2. Yuuichi has never played any sports or physical activities as far as I know but for some reason, he told me a vague story about that time that he was once in a shooting game of sorts with Kei which required a bit of action. I didn't understand what that was, but I ignored it. (A/N: only Tomodachi Game manga readers can understand what Yuuichi meant by shooting game)
3. On Kei's team. He and Karma are coaching along with Light and Kaguya who gave some assistance. It was a bit tough for them since I noticed that their exercise routines are quite extreme to say the least, but I noticed that Karma made the training look easy for him. I wonder where he got all that physical strength from? Also, the same thing for Kei and he surprisingly told us that he trained in judo and karate which explains why he's also physically strong even if his short stature looked like he isn't.
4. Houtarou is the toughest one to train since he's the definition of laziness. Kei tried to motivate the guy but to no avail, it took a few hours, but he managed to at least get Houtarou to do some push-ups. I really want to see what happens if he really used up all that energy if he wasn't conserving it all the time.
"Man, why did our training have to be this difficult?" Kazuto said while lying on his back on the ground tired.
"Hey! blame Kei-kun, it's his idea" Karma said
"What are you talking about!? you agreed with me in giving them this kind of training remember?!" Kei said sounding irritated
"It's fine guys, I mean as long as we make progress, right?" Kaguya said while wiping her sweat from her brow.
"Yeah, but I can't say the same for this guy" Kei said pointing at an extremely tired Shirogane Miyuki who collapsed on the ground after running for 10 km on the track
"I...can't....r-run....anymore" Miyuki said while panting and sweating profusely.
"Are you alright Miyuki?" Suzaku ran towards the tired boy as he checked on him
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
While Suzaku was checking on him, both Sora and Shiro also collapsed from exhaustion as Yumeko and Yuuichi checked up on them.
"Are you guys alright?" Yumeko asked
"Too.....tired....." Sora said barely catching his breath
"N...Nii.....need...rest...." Shiro looking like she's going to pass out
As expected, most of the non-athletic students in Class S would be tired so easily. It's going to be tough to get them into shape but there is no other option other than this.
"Ohh come on guys, let's pick up the pace. We can't just lie down and do nothing" Karma said trying to motivate the others
"Easy for you to say" Houtarou said while as usual conserving his energy after doing push-ups
"Hey guys we need to keep training just a little longer, we won't be able to keep up against the other students if we don't get into shape" Kaguya said also trying to motivate the others.
"What are we gonna do Kiyotaka? I mean they're kinda hopeless on this one" Yuuichi said
"Hey, don't say stuff like that Yuuichi-kun, besides I get it maybe my training is a bit harsh, so I'll give you guys a 15-minute break before we start again is that alright with everyone?" Kei asked his team.
"Sure, I am getting tired at this point after all" Lelouch said while hiding the fact that he's also as extremely tired as the rest.
"Same" Asuna said who was also lying on the ground on her back.
"I think we should do the same with our team, what do you think?" I asked my own team
"It's fine Kiyotaka" Tatsuya replied
"Yes, we should!!" Both Sora and Shiro said as well as Miyuki.
"Yeah, a bit of rest is fine, I mean we have been exercising for a while now" Yuuichi said who was also tired as well.
We all agreed and decided to take a small break.
"Hey Karma-kun" I heard a voice, and it was Kaguya's
"What is it?" he asked
"I don't think any of us have asked this yet, but do you work out a lot?" she asked
"Well, you could say that. I used to help train a bunch of losers in my previous class from my previous school." He replied
"Really, but why would you call your own class losers?" Light asked
"Well, you could say that the class I was in were all pretty pathetic in terms of grades but some of them are impressive in other things such as in terms of sports since I have one classmate there who plays baseball"
"So, you trained them?" Akise now joins in on the conversation.
"Yep, I did but of course with a little help from our sensei and the rest of the class."
"I see, so you were in a lower class before?" I asked
"Yeah, I was but as it turns out they were the best class that I've ever been in, aside from this one of course" he said
We all took our 15-minute break, all drank water, ate some snacks and chatted a bit on what we should do next. 15 minutes have passed, and we were all ready to train again
"Alright, break's over but before we begin training again. I have something that I want you all to do first" Kei said as he took something out of his bag.
"Here I want you all to test your grip strength first" Kei said as he took a hand-held dynamometer.
"Ohh so we're using this to test our grip strength?" Akise asked
"Exactly, we need this to check everyone's grip strength. It's information we need to document so that Kiyotaka-san and I can create our rosters." Kei explained
We all started testing grip strengths as of now. I won't go into too many details but here's the grip strength of everyone in Class S:
Akabane Karma: 93.1
Aru Akise: 55.8
Tatsuya Shiba: 99.7
Shinomiya Kaguya: 70.1
Shirogane Miyuki: 44.5
Jabami Yumeko: 56.4
Sora: 42.2
Shiro: 24 1
Yagami Light: 72.3
Rue Ryuzaki: 71.5
Lamperouge Lelouch: 46.7
Kururugi Suzaku: 99.8
Shinomiya Kei: 92.4
Katagiri Yuuichi: 50.2
Kirigaya Kazuto: 68.2
Yuuki Asuna: 59.3
Oreki Houtarou: 45.2
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka: 110.6
"No way! you're this strong Kiyotaka?" Kazuto asked in shock.
"As expected of you Kiyotaka-san" Kei said sounding proud
"Looks like you're the second strongest person in this class huh Suzaku?" Lelouch said
"Yeah, but I didn't expect Kiyotaka to be this strong." Even Suzaku who had trained in the military couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"You're quite strong Kiyotaka-kun, do you work out a lot too?" Karma asked
"Yeah, a bit"
"A bit? does 110.6 sound like a bit to you?" Yuuichi said sounding shocked as well
"Well, what is the average grip strength of a normal person?" I asked
"If I recall, it's around 45 or 50, something like that" Karma replied
"Wait so most of us got above average?!!!?" Sora shouted
"Yeah, I guess some of us are quite strong unlike some people" Kei said while staring and smirking at Miyuki
"Okay I get it I'm not strong!" Miyuki said while pouting, wow I don't think I've ever seen Miyuki pout before
"Anyways I'm sure you all know the deal. We are not leaking this information on to anyone. Even the other teams. Besides it would ruin the element of surprise after all. So, let's keep our rosters a secret for now agreed?" Kei asked everyone
"Agreed" everyone said in unison
