Crossover Anime: I'm at Shuchiin Academy, and my surname is Uchiha.

Chapter 181 Saying I'm a genius?

Monday, the day students hate the most. And in the lead-up to the midterm exams, not only academics but also extracurricular clubs are becoming increasingly competitive.

Clubs like the kendo club, judo club, and baseball club are all preparing for the national tournament. This summer, they will be giving their all in the summer.

Uchiha Ryo said, "What does this have to do with me? Isn't it nice for him to be enjoying the air conditioning in the clubroom?"

Therefore, compared to sports clubs that can bring glory to the school, literary clubs like the Classical Literature Department, although they also need to prepare a summary for a semester, are much easier to do.

For example, in the Astronomy Club, Dragon Ball Momo plans to casually record something using a telescope, then search for relevant information online and submit it.

For example, the board game club is responsible for submitting new games they have developed themselves.

The student union is generally responsible for approving the semester-end reviews of various departments and groups, and adjusting the department's funding for the following semester based on the academic performance.

"So, what is our Classics Department supposed to do?"

As the vice minister, Uchiha Ryo looked at Amakusa Shino, who was doing nothing.

Amakusa Shino: "Well... our club usually writes for newspapers and then publishes them in conjunction with the news department. But right now, there's a major problem: because of Kojima from the Kendo club and Kondo from the Judo club, the news department has started following and reporting on the sports club."

Chitanda sighed. "I asked Kiran from the newspaper club, and they rejected all the literature-related clubs. They want to follow the sports club and report on the latest news."

Hayasaka Ai rested her chin on her hand, idly twirling a pen in her other hand.

"I heard that the semester review work for the clubs and student organizations was delegated to the general affairs department by President Shirogane..."

Yukino: "I will treat any club fairly and justly."

Amakusa Shino's expression showed slight disappointment; it seemed that using connections was out of the question. But!

"Although the school newspaper from the news department is no longer available, another club has approached me and hopes that we can work together to complete the semester's tasks."

Amakusa Shino smiled broadly, "Everyone, you've probably heard of the drama club, right?"

Uchiha Ryo: "I don't know."

Haika Hayasaka: "I haven't paid attention to it."

Yukinoshita: "I don't know much about it."

Chitanda: "This sounds interesting. What are we going to do?"

Amakusa Shino looked at everyone helplessly. "Here's what happened. The drama club wants to put on a play in the school's gymnasium next week, which is their semester assignment, but they're missing half of the script."

Chitanda heard the key phrase. "Excuse me, why is it half?"

"I heard that the person in charge of writing the script got sick, but the script was only half finished, and they only had a week, which meant there was no time to practice with different scripts..."

Yukinoshita nodded. "I understand. So you mean you need our help to refine the script, right?"

Absolutely correct! Amakusa Shino explained.

"The head of the drama department has already reached an agreement with me. As long as I help them improve the script, this play will be considered a collaborative project between our Classical Literature Department and the Drama Department."

Uchiha Ryo responded with an "Oh," and said, "It's great that you can complete your semester assignment by writing a script."

Amakusa Shino: "Since everyone agrees, let's meet at the Third Gymnasium after school today!"

After school... Hayasaka Ai's expression froze for a moment, but she quickly recovered. Everyone else was fine after school, but she had to escort the young lady home.

But this is a rare opportunity to work with Ling. If I don't step in now, what if Yukinoshita and Chitanda catch up and surpass me?

Oh right, it seems Kaguya-sama has a bet with me, that is, I get to take one day off every week... Hehe, well then I'll let her go home alone today~

Kaguya Shinomiya from the archery club sneezed. She's been really tired lately with both club and student council duties. Maybe she should go home and have Ai Hayasaka give her a massage...

.....

Time quickly passed to four o'clock in the afternoon, and when the bell rang for the last class, Shirogane Miyuki breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry, Uchiha, you guys are going to prepare for the club's mission, right? I'll be missing it again."

Uchiha Ryo turned to look at the exhausted student council president, who was also a workaholic and the king of academic competition.

"It's okay, we'll just help the drama department write a script, it won't be too tiring."

You guys aren't tired, but I am!! Shirogane Miyuki's dark circles have gotten even worse lately. Lately, he's either processing documents in the student council office, preparing for midterms, or working on weekends.

Sigh... I'm just destined to be a workaholic. He also wanted to go to the stadium with his club members to watch a play, think about the script, and then play video games together on the weekend.

"Uchiha, sometimes I really envy geniuses like you... People like me who have no talent can only try to catch up through constant effort, but in the end, we may not even be able to catch up."

Uchiha Ryo stopped in his tracks.

"Envious? In reality, even if geniuses yearn for it, they can't have the ordinary life of normal people."

"Sometimes, the word 'genius' can easily ruin a person. Genius and stupidity are like good people and bad people..."

If a truly virtuous person accidentally does something bad, they are likely to be seen as falling into depravity and moral decay. If a wicked person does good deeds and this is seen by everyone, then people will say that they are a prodigal son who has returned home.

With just a simple sentence, you called me a genius... but little did you know that you had already taken me away from the life that ordinary people could enjoy.

Shirogane Miyuki seemed lost in thought.

"You're right, it's not easy to be a genius in this world... Geniuses may also experience unimaginable suffering."

Uchiha Ryo patted Shirogane Miyuki on the shoulder, revealing an expression that said, "This kid is teachable."

"Yes, are geniuses always as happy as you imagine? You're wrong... You can't even imagine how happy geniuses are!"

Shirogane Miyuki: "???"

Uchiha Ryo laughed and then followed Chitanda out of the classroom toward the school gymnasium.

Once everyone in the Classic Literature Club except for Miyuki Shirogane had arrived, Shinobu Amakusa pushed open the gymnasium door.

The gymnasium was incredibly dark inside. Under the shaded skylight, curtains blocked the summer sunlight. Suddenly, a girl who seemed to know Amakusa Shino stepped forward and made a shushing gesture.

"I'll be troubling everyone in the Classic Literature Club today. I'm Fuyumi Irisu, the head of the Drama Club."

"Please come and watch our drama club's test performance first, although it's only the first half."

Led by Fuyumi Irisu, the group sat down below the stage in the gymnasium, watching the drama club members who were practicing their script.
