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

Chapter 192 Goto Ichiri Cannot Rise Again

"Review? There's absolutely no need for pre-exam review. As long as you study hard regularly, there won't be any problems. Last-minute cramming will only damage your health."

This is a lie! Shirogane Miyuki stared with dark circles under his eyes. There were still two weeks until the exam, and he had already asked for leave from his weekend job!

From ninth place in the entrance exam to second place now, apart from that genius Uchiha, Shirogane Miyuki will not allow anyone to surpass him.

This time, Shirogane Miyuki really wanted to be at the forefront! He wanted to actually get first place in this exam!

Kaguya Shinomiya smiled and said, "That's true. Just face the exam naturally and don't overthink it."

This is a lie! Kaguya Shinomiya will not admit defeat! As the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, to be surpassed in academic performance by two different people is an unbearable humiliation that her pride cannot accept!

Heh, Shirogane Miyuki is studying while juggling his student council duties, so his grades are bound to drop. As for Uchiha Ryo... I've never seen him study much, what an arrogant victor! He'll be crushed by me sooner or later.

Yukino frowned. "Even so, we still need to take every exam seriously."

Miyuki Shirogane: "However, relaxing before the exam is a good option. I basically don't look at any study materials in the three days before the exam."

Kaguya Shinomiya: "That makes sense. If you feel immense pressure studying before an exam, it's better not to study at all."

Everything they said was a lie!

In order to convince the other party that they were both just throwing dirty water.

Uchiha Ryo nodded. "Oh, okay, then I won't study before the exam."

This is the truth!

With the power of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, victory is a given. Let alone just one year's worth of high school knowledge, even if he took the college entrance exam right now, it would be a piece of cake.

Fujiwara Chika glanced at the speeches of the top three students in her grade. "Oh! I see. Well then, I won't study either!"

Yukinoshita looked at Fujiwara Chika helplessly, "You're different from them... Fujiwara-san."

.....

It wasn't just Shuchiin High School that was facing exams; Toyonosaki was too. Uchiha Ryo, because of her involvement in making games, had also inquired about their academic progress.

There's no need to worry about the two talented girls, Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri. They're more concerned about their jobs than their studies.

As for the four members of the Bond Band... except for Little Loneliness, they should all be passable.

[My sister is really troubled lately. Can Brother Ling help her?] — Goto Niri

With one week left until the semester exams, Uchiha Ryo received a message from Goto Nuri using her sister's phone.

Helping Little Lonely? It's nothing more than tutoring her or something, but he's really not suited to teaching people, as Shirogane Miyuki told him after experiencing it firsthand.

"Forget it, I'll just ask someone for help. Hmm... how about we hold a study session?"

Without hesitation, Uchiha Ryo dialed Hayasaka Ai's number, as she was better at teaching the little loner.

Hayasaka Ai: [Ryo-kun! You finally remembered me! I thought you had forgotten me~]

Don't say that. I remember everyone. You have some time recently, right?

Hayasaka Ai said that the young lady studies hard every day and is very bored at home. If you want to ask her out, she can come anytime.

【Hmm, do you remember where Little Lonely lives? Let's go and invite her out for a study session.】

Hayasaka Ai: [Oh? That socially awkward guitar-playing maid, okay.]

Not long after, Goto Ichiri, who was at home with his guitar, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. What was this feeling? Why...? He had a bad feeling!

"Sister, Brother Ling and Sister Hayasaka are coming to our house to play later."

Goto Ichiri: "Oh..."

"....."

"Eh!!! Why?!"

Why are friends I know coming over on my day off? Have I become a social butterfly? Wait, what are they doing here?

Goto Ichiri rummaged through her belongings and finally found the maid outfit that a kind Uchiha had given her in the corner of her wardrobe.

Oh right! Mom and Dad are both home today, so it's safe! With my parents around, Hayasaka shouldn't be able to criticize me so harshly, and Ryo shouldn't let me change into a maid outfit so easily.

Little Lonely's mind was in complete chaos. She didn't know what she was thinking, nor did she know why Uchiha Ryo was coming, or whether she should go to the door to welcome him.

As she was thinking, Goto Ichiri heard the sound of a door opening downstairs and her mother's voice.

"You're a classmate from Class 1, right? Welcome! She's upstairs, honestly, she always likes to stay cooped up in her room."

Goto Ichiri quietly slipped out of the room and peeked out from the top of the stairs towards the door. Uchiha Ryo, standing there, was as sunny and handsome as ever, as if they were from a completely different world.

"Aunt Goto, actually I came to invite Goto-san to the study group, but I don't know if she has time."

"Study session!" Goto Michiyoichi clapped her hands.

"I have plenty of time. My family doesn't have much else, but we have a lot of free time. I'm practically always with my guitar on weekends. Aside from practicing, I have all my free time!"

Mom...why did you have to reveal all your secrets to others?

Goto Ichiri quickly ran downstairs and stood behind Goto Michiyo. "Ah... um... Ryo-san, about the study group or something."

Uchiha Ryo: "I heard that your grades aren't very good, right? Even if you want to become a band guitarist, you have to pass your studies."

Goto Ichiri: "Yes..."

Michiyo Goto ruffled the little boy's hair. "I'll leave the rest of the grades to you. May I ask where the study session is being held?"

Uchiha Ryo pointed to himself, "If you don't mind, we can do it at my house. Of course, there will be other people in the study group besides us."

"We're going to the Uchiha Ryo family!" Goto Ichiri subconsciously took a step back, his social anxiety kicking in as he tried to avoid unfamiliar surroundings.

"Mom! Sister, I want to go too! I want to go to the study session!"

Xiao Erli's voice came from inside the living room, and then he actually ran out carrying his schoolbag like a proper student.

Michiyo Goto: "Niri, don't cause trouble for your older brothers and sisters. Go back and play with your father."

"No! I want to go to the study session too, and Brother Ling's snacks are especially delicious!"

Uchiha Ryo said nonchalantly, "Let both sisters come over. We can help with their elementary school homework."

Michiyo Goto: "Well... alright then. Jiri! Don't cause any trouble for your brother's family, and please take care of your sister."

Goto Jiri nodded, "Yes! I promise to take good care of my sister!"

Goto Ichiri: "....."

What about me? Why is Erli taking care of me instead of me taking care of Erli? And why wasn't my opinion asked?! Study session... I don't want to study!

Little Lonely wanted to back out, but her eyes caught sight of Hayasaka Ai standing not far from the door.

Waaaaah, Hayasaka-san is here too.

Suddenly, a pair of warm hands were placed on Xiao Gudu's shoulders. Goto Ichiri looked up and saw Uchiha Ryo's gentle gaze.

"Your grades are really bad right now. If you can guarantee you'll pass all your exams, how about I take you on a trip during summer vacation?"

Although it sounded like words to coax a child, Little Lonely lowered his head and clenched his fists.

In the past, during holidays, they would either stay at home or stay in their rooms. At most, their family members would take them out to play when everyone else was on holiday.

And now, is it possible for something as fulfilling as "going out with classmates during summer vacation" to happen to me?

"I...I will try my best!"

Hayasaka Ai, who was standing outside the door, also came in and smiled at Kotori.

"But if you fail even one subject... be prepared to be a maid for life!"

Goto Ichiri trembled—collapsed to the ground—unable to get up again.
