Utopia-like Dystopia - Part 1

It was the morning of the next day.

I made my way into the classroom of 2-E, and as usual, I was the first one inside. I placed my bag down and took a seat near the back. There was really no need to sit at the front, especially when I didn't really need to listen to the class. I didn't receive any notice of a seating plan, so I decided to sit where I liked.

Around twenty minutes later, the class filled up, and the teacher walked in.

I saw Ichikawa Mana.

Looks like my gamble paid off.

"Alright, everyone, it is mandatory that I tell you this. Basically, under the new system, all classes are optional. If you do not see the need to attend classes or if you want to study on your own, you are completely free to do so. The decision is up to you."

A cheer resounded as soon as she said that. However, she wasn't done.
