MEMORY:
    During the Free Time events.



    BYAKUYA: ............
    BYAKUYA: ...I have one question I want to ask you.
    MAKOTO: Eh? You have a question for me, Togami-kun...?



    BYAKUYA: It's been troubling me for some time now. I just want this mystery settled...



    BYAKUYA: You're known as a "Super High-school Level Good Luck"... What does that mean?
    MAKOTO: U...Um...
    MAKOTO: I'm not really sure myself...
    MAKOTO: It's just that I've been chosen in a lottery among every regular high school student in the country.
    BYAKUYA: So it really was just simple luck...



    BYAKUYA: ... I see. In that case, the mystery is solved.
    MAKOTO: Mystery...?
    BYAKUYA: The reason why a person with absolutely no talent such as yourself is enrolled in this school...



    BYAKUYA: No, strictly speaking, I should've said "a boring person with no hope of ever acquiring a talent".

    MAKOTO'S THOUGHTS: A boring person... With no hope of ever acquiring a talent...

    MAKOTO: T...that's a little severe...
    BYAKUYA: But it's the truth.
    MAKOTO: ...I guess, when compared to a "Super High-school Level Heir" such as yourself...
    MAKOTO: But... even I...!



    BYAKUYA: Don't sum me up as just being a "Super High-school Level Heir".
    BYAKUYA: It's not just about my bloodline. My mind, figure and physique are all Super High-school Level...



    BYAKUYA: I might as well be called "Super High-school Level Perfection"... That's what you should refer to me as from now on.

    MAKOTO'S THOUGHTS: H...he's really going that far...



    BYAKUYA: A person like yourself, who has nothing, and a person like me, who has everything. Truly, humans are not created equal.
    BYAKUYA: Naegi, you have my sympathy. Life sure can be cruel.
    ............



    BYAKUYA: Even I am able of some compassion. I'll do you a favor and tell you more about my magnificent deeds some other time.
    BYAKUYA: You should be honored that someone as plain as yourself gets to hear them directly from the man himself.



    MAKOTO'S THOUGHTS: Togami-kun left those words of pity, and walked out of the room...

    MAKOTO: I think I understood one thing about Togami-kun...
    MAKOTO: Talking to him... is like taking a blow to the ego.
