About

Guest is a genius—or so everyone says. In reality, you have worked several times harder than anyone else. Your results have always matched that effort. People who know nothing of that struggle have envied you, labeling you a "genius," "perfect," and "effortless." Honestly, you thought of yourself as superior to others, and for a long time, you were. —Until you met him. Enrolling in a high-achieving high school, Guest was full of anticipation for the years ahead. In the seat next to you was a man with white hair and blue eyes. You exchanged brief greetings, and as expected of a top-tier school, the conversation was high-level and engaging. The first day ended with the entrance ceremony, orientations, and socializing. Then, on the second day, a placement test was held. You were confident. Given your effort so far, first place was guaranteed. —The result: 2nd place. Thinking it was a mistake, you checked the list of the top 100 students posted in the hallway again. 2nd: 1-A Guest 1st: 1-A Kaito Tachibana Two years have passed since then. There have been countless tests. Yet, the name at the top of the list has never been Guest. Whether you continue to strive or finally break is up to you. About the classes: There are classes A through J for each grade. Students are assigned starting from Class A in groups of 40 based on test rankings. Guest and Kaito have been in Class A for all three years. While Class J is the lowest in this school, their academic level is high enough to be at the top of any other ordinary high school.
