Volu 10, The Fifth Question

Please answer the following question:

Please calculate the area of the shaded region. Use π as the circular constant.

Hiji Mizuki answer:

Assuming that the radius of the small circle is r, and the circumference as ?.

= 2πr

The question asks for the area between radius 1 and 3, so we’ll call it ‘S’.

Therefore, the answer is 8π.

Teacher's Comnt:

Well answered. This is a standard question for area.

Yoshii Akihisa's Answer:

Teacher's Comnt:

It's been a while since I felt my veins popping.

Tsuchiya Kouta's Answer:

Teacher's Comnt:

Co over to the counselling room. I would like to hear your explanation.

Having finished our strategic eting, we were all feeling very motivated, what awaits us is the replenishnt tests as we have to replenish the marks we lost before noon.

“…”

There’re still a lot of questions I can’t understand, so I’ll try to answer with the best of my ability.

Answer, skip, answer, skip, answer halfway, skip, skip, skip

As I continue to write, the difficulty of the questions becos harder and harder. It looks like the questions at the back are ones I can’t answer, so I jump back to the front to answer.

“(Scribble scribble scribble scribble scribble)”

“(Scribble scribble scribble scribble scribble)”

Minami and Hiji-san are near , Minami filling her maths points, and Hiji-san filling her chemistry points. Both of them are writing with their pens practically glued to their hands.

It’s dangerous to let both of them leave the frontlines, but there’s a good reason why we’re doing this.

Minami’s taking the replenishing test because her best subject's points had been depleted.

Hiji-san’s taking part in the replenishnt test because we heard that Kubo-kun’s taking the replenishnt test.

We need Hiji-san’s strength to stop Kubo-kun's powerful attack, so Hiji-san’s taking the replenishnt tests at this mont.

“Ono, Asaga, Mitarai, go to the second level for standby. Try and fight using combined subjects. They switched subjects three tis, so there should be quite a lot of enemies with depleted combined subjects points. Also, I hope you can try and make so big actions to lure them.”

“““Understood.”””

“Saitou, bring the physics teacher near the stairs. I’m going to use a diversion to make them think the subject will be changed to physics and change their mbers.”

“Affirmative.”

“Once Saitou takes action, Watarai, go get ready and change the subject on the linkway to world history. Harada, follow their actions and lead the reinforcents with Manaka, Mutou, Watanabe.”

Yuuji continues to give commands one after another as his voice can be heard from afar. He has never given such detailed commands in our battles before, and this shows how strong the opponent is.

However, this also ans that we—who weren’t treated seriously when we challenged D class to a war half a year ago—are now able to fight this powerful A class as an opponent head on.

We—who were viewed as a bunch of idiots half a year ago—have gained the admiration of all our fellow peers

As I think about this, my hand that’s holding the pen becos a little more forceful. Maybe this might be the first ti I feel that the summoning war is interesting.

The replenishnt tests lasted quite a while.

“Fuu~ finally over…”

Once the second check was over, my modern language’s replenishnt test is over. My scores should be the sa. Now, once I hand my script over to the teacher for marking—

“SAKAMOTO!! KUBO APPEARED!!!”

At this mont, this intel ca flying into our ears.

“Kubo? That guy should need so ti before he can get back onto the battlefield.”

On hearing the report, Yuuji imdiately frowned.

Hiji-san’s still having the exams, but Kubo-kun’s back on the battlefield. This itself is weird as Hiji-san is taking the replenishing tests at the sa ti as Kubo-kun in order to fight him, so both of them should be back on the battlefield at the sa ti.

“No, that’s definitely Kubo! Anyway, hurry up and send reinforcents!”

But based on the report, it seems that Kubo-kun’s back on the battlefield.

Both of them are taking the tests at the sa ti, but they’re leaving at different tis. In that case, the only possibility is—

“In other words, that bastard ended the replenishnt tests earlier!”

This ans that Kubo-kun took lesser ti for the replenishnt tests.

“Damn it…he’s a model student, and yet he’s using such underhanded thods!”

Kubo-kun’s actions are really not to be expected of A class. His act of handing in the replenishing test earlier is more of F class’ style.

If we consider Kubo-kun’s breakthrough ability, there’s now no ti to wait for Hiji-san to return. Even if she can hand in her paper earlier, the opponent will break through our defenses if we wait for the teacher to finish marking the scripts.

If we can send in our remaining forces, we can stop Kubo-kun. Kubo-kun’s just attacking without bothering to defend, so everyone should be able to wear his points down if we all attack with a suicidal mindset.

But doing this will cause our side to lose my people. With many of us dying, the chances of the final strategy succeeding will be lowered. The plan that everyone hoped that would grant our wish will fail easily.

—I want to go over.

I thought.

I hope Yuuji leave Kubo-kun to so that we can focus our forces in the plan. I want to gamble on this in order to increase the chances of the final strategy succeeding.

I was completely helpless when I t Kubo-kun before noon.

And I don’t have any decisive strategies of winning here.

If I go over now, I won’t be able to wait for the teacher to give the modern language score. In that case, I have to give up precious ti to replenish.

There’re too many disadvantageous factors.

In contrast, there’s practically no advantage to . I still have so confidence in my summoned beast control—this only advantage is the only chance of winning I have that I’m using to encourage myself.

Normally, I won’t be doing such a disadvantageous bet, and I won’t even think about this.

This should be the case, but—

“Akihisa! Scramble! Hurry up and stop Kubo!”

Yuuji imdiately says without hesitation.

“Oi, Sakamoto, Yoshii’s still waiting for the teacher to mark the modern language paper—”

“We have no ti to wait! Stopping Kubo is more important here! Mori and Hirata, follow Akihisa. You’ll be the support!”

Such a fast and decisive choice. Even I do feel that my urging self is rather stupid.

“Can you do it, Akihisa?”

Yuuji stares at my eyes as he asks.

Before answering, I have to check sothing.

“Yuuji, Kubo-kun doesn’t look like he’ll hold back no matter who the opponent is.”

“Ahh, I know that, but I have to ask you.”

Yuuji’s eyes aren’t showing any signs of joking. Does this guy really feel that I can fight Kubo-kun? Does he really feel that I can fight the 2nd ranked in our year?

This guy’s really here? Even I, who wanted to raise this plan, is doubting whether I can stop Kubo-kun.

“Akihisa, if it’s you, you can definitely stop Kubo.”

Yuuji concludes decisively as if he’s trying to nudge from behind.

These words blow aside all doubts and anxiety in my mind.

“Understood. I’ll definitely stop him.”

“Sorry for making you lose the marks you worked so hard to earn.”

There’s no need for Yuuji to apologize for this. I even want to thank him.

“One more step before we fight it out. Listen up…we mustn’t let him through!”

“““Understood!”””

As we answer back, I rush out to the corridor with Mori-kun and Hirata-kun.

Then, we see the opponents rushing over here.

“Yoshii, it’s A class! Two of them broke through the line so quickly!”

There’s only 2 people for now, but if so people are able to break through like this, it shows that the defense line on the front is collapsing gradually because of Kubo-kun. Now’s a ti where we have to fight for every single second. Not a single mont of hesitation is allowed!

“You intend to interfere with Kubo-kun? I won’t let you do so, Yoshii-kun! Summon!”

The girl who cos running over here has permission of Ujiie-sensei as she summons.

“Gek! Isn’t that Satou Miho?”

Mori-kun’s words cause to rember. That person is Satou-san who fought against half a year ago. I’m not very familiar with her, so I can’t rember her na imdiately.

“What should we do? Yoshii. She’s rather powerful!”

“We take her on!”

“WHAT TAKE HER ON! YOU WERE DEFEATED THOROUGHLY BY HER HALF A YEAR AGO! IS THIS REALLY ALRIGHT?”

“—Summon!”

I didn’t answer Mori-kun’s words as I run and call out my summoned beast.

A class, Satou Miho, Japanese History, 281 points.

Vs

F class, Yoshii Akihisa, Japanese History 189 points

Satou Miho-san beat thoroughly in physics the last ti when we challenged A class to a summoning war half a year ago. At that ti, I wasn’t able to fight with her at all.

But if it’s a duel of Japanese History—

“Yoshii-kun, let’s go!”

Satou-san let her summoned beast raise its weapon as she charge at .

I let my summoned beast charge from the front, and as we move by each other, I use my wooden sword to hack at the opponent’s body before quickly turning back to hit the opponent’s back.

A class, Satou Miho, Japanese History, 95 points.

Vs

F class, Yoshii Akihisa, Japanese History 189 points

“Eh…”

Satou-san gives a shocked expression, not knowing what happened, perhaps because she let her guard down because of the overwhelming victory she had before.

If it’s a battle using Japanese History, I don’t think I can lose!

“Nice going Yoshii! If the opponent’s Japanese History score is like this, I can barely take on the enemy!”

“ too! Leave this person to us! Summon!”

“Thanks, I’ll leave it to you, Mori-kun, Hirata-kun!”

We switch over on who’s to deal with Satou-san, and I continue to run forward.

Kubo-kun…you toyed before noon, but I’m not going to let you do as you wish. I’ll definitely stop you from moving forward in order to win this war!

I move through the old building and reach my destination, the linkway. I see everyone from F class in a disadvantageous due to the collapsing formation.

“Oi! It’ll be bad if we continue to let him through!”

“Talk is cheap here! Who can stop that monster!”

“Everyone in F class, I’m sorry, but can you please let through?”

“WHO’LL LET YOU THROUGH!? EVEN WE HAVE TIS WHERE WE CAN’T BACK AWAY!”

“—It can’t be helped then. Let’s settle this.”

“HOW CAN WE LOSE!!!”

A class, Kubo Toshimitsu, World History, 323 points

Vs

F class, Takashi Atsuya, DEAD

Takahashi-kun’s desperate attack grazed the opponent’s shoulder, and Kubo-kun’s giant mace sliced down Takahashi-kun’s summoned beast head.

“Let’s move forward, Kinosheeta-san.”

“Thank you, Kubo-kun. Then, we’ll leave the sweeping here to Okui-san and the rest. Let’s deal with Sakamoto-kun directly and end this war.”

With Kubo-kun leading, A class swept their way here. They have about 10 people with them, trying to break through the periter F class set at the linkway.

However—

“DON’T THINK YOU CAN GET YOUR WAY!!”

“!?”

The summoned beast walking in front of Kubo-kun stops to block my attack.

A class, Kubo Toshimitsu, World History, 323 points

Vs

F class, Yoshii Akihisa, World History, 158 points

“Yoshii-kun…!”

“Kubo-kun, it’s not like you to submit your script early. No need to rush things. Slow down here!”

The system shows my marks and Kubo-kun’s once it was depleted by Takahashi-kun’s attack.

Right now, Kubo-kun’s world history scores aren’t more than 400, so if he doesn’t use the power of the bracelet, we may have a chance!

“Nice going, Yoshii!”

“Now! Those still alive, gather here! We need to regroup with forwards and defenders!”

My comrades from F class imdiately regroup and get into action to hold off Kinosheeta-san and the rest behind. Their thirst to repay and the countless battle experience isn’t for show.

Also—

“Yoshii-kun. We have a war here, so I can’t involve personal feelings here, but at least I don’t want you to feel guilty. Can you please leave before you feel the feedback?”

Kubo-kun’s right in front of . If we force him back, we’ll be able to regroup our defense.

“That’s my line, Kubo-kun. Everyone in A class is kind, but winning this war is our long-awaited wish, so we can’t back away here.”

“…I understand. If you say so, I’ll make my resolve here.”

Kubo-kun’s summoned beast exchange glares with my summoned beast as we face off.

My opponent is holding his specialty weapon Deathscythe in a diagonal position, and it leaps at . Kubo-kun can’t use the power of the bracelet, but his score is still more than 300 points, and the onrushing speed isn’t small.

However, I went through lots of battles during this half a year. No matter how fast the opponent is, this straightforward attack can’t possibly hit .

I can predict the direction the opponent will be attack at from the way the opponent rushes in, the posture and the weapon type. Kubo-kun looks like he’s going to use a horizontal scythe that can maximize the attack range. Like before, he has no intention of defending.

“Fuu…”

I already predicted Kubo-kun’s attack path, so I exhale slightly and lean down to avoid his attack.

No matter how much the marks have improved by, it’s impossible to do this technique without actual combat experience. Including the study camp, Kubo-kun only had combat experience 4 tis, so I definitely won’t be beaten by his attack!

“Ku…!”

Kubo-kun’s summoned beast pulls back the deathscythe that missed and raises it high this ti to reveal a large overhead cleave. Based on that position, he’ll definitely swing the scythe down. No matter how strong the opponent’s strength is, it’s not hard to dodge such a big move.

I let my summoned beast move sideways and swing the wooden sword right at the opponent’s body with minimal action.

A class, Kubo Toshimitsu, World History, 303 points

Vs

F class, Yoshii Akihisa, World History, 158 points

My summoned beast gives a light damage to the opponent and quickly leaps away from its position. At that instant, the deathscythe rips through a space no one’s at.

I already saw that even with a little damage, Kubo-kun will ignore it and continue to attack. In that case, I’ll dodge the hit and give a small yet sharp attack.

“…”

Kubo-kun’s summoned beast uses its right hand to wield the two-handed scythe, perhaps because he felt that big strikes won’t hit with my posture like this, while the left hand is clenched. He probably wants to use the fist that strikes faster and pulls back faster to stop my attack and use the deathscythe when I stop. As expected of Kubo-kun, his analytical and decision-making abilities are really amazing.

This ti, Kubo-kun’s summoned beast raises the deathscythe back onto the shoulder, and it then charges right at .

I gather my concentration and let my summoned beast use more delicate movents.

My opponent raises its fist, while I aim for the left shoulder. Klang. A soft and sharp sound rings. This attack can’t cause damage to Kubo-kun with his high marks, but this isn’t my aim.

“…”

Kubo-kun’s summoned beast can’t swing its fist out as the starting point of the movent is hit. In that case, Kubo-kun will think of using that deathscythe and let his summoned beast swing it in the right hand, but the power and speed by swinging with one hand isn’t enough, so even I can block it with my points.

This ti, the one attacking is . I let my summoned beast rush at the opponent, pretending to attack. My summoned beast then dodges the fist that cuts through the air and swings the wooden sword. However, this move is blocked by the opponent’s deathscythe in its right hand.

I didn’t stop as I quickly pull back. The opponent’s left fist misses.

“Oi oi oi…that Yoshii, is he for real…?”

“…Fighting against that Kubo head on. He must be mad…”

The tense attack and defense battle continue. A normal opponent will probably make much bigger movents due to anxiety, but Kubo-kun is rather calm as he controls his summoned beast within the best of his ability.

I want to force the opponent back, but the attack power isn’t enough. Kubo-kun can win if he can hit once, but he’s unable to hit the target. Everyone in F class is collapsing in formation, but they’re still fighting alongside their comrades. However, they’re starting to be pushed by the opponent.

Just when I’m thinking that this situation can’t last for long, she appears.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Akihisa-kun! Please move aside! Summon!”

“Okay! Hiji-san!”

“!? Damn—”

My summoned beast move aside, and the fiery path blaze through the space I made.

Kubo-kun’s summoned beast beca the target, and was slow in dodging as the right half of its body is burned off.

A class, Kubo Toshimitsu, World History, 34 points

Vs

F class, Hiji Mizuki, World History, 379 points

The system shows the points depleted in the damage Kubo-kun took and the power Hiji-san used.

Should I be saying that Kubo-kun’s amazing for not dying in battle after taking the bracelet attack, or should I say that Hiji-san’s amazing for being able to nearly kill Kubo-kun even if the attack missed? The clash between two people with high marks show that I can’t determine the outco.

“…Sorry, Kinosheeta-san. I have to retreat and replenish my points here.”

Kubo-kun isn’t stunned by the sudden change in situation as he quickly retreats from the battle area.

We’re unable to defeat the enemy thoroughly, but we managed to force them back. Now we’ll be able to regroup our defenses.

“Everyone, get in line!”

“““CHARGEEE!!!”””

My allies never let go of this chance as everyone tries to regroup in a lance team formation with Hiji-san at the center. I continue to dash forward to stop Kinosheeta-san who’s trying to stop them.

“You’re really ddleso, Yoshii-kun. I should have tried to find a way to get rid of you imdiately when we surrounded you this morning.”

Kinosheeta-san takes my summoned beast’s attack as she says.

“You flatter , Kinosheeta-san. It’s thanks to Hiji-san’s power that we could make Kubo-kun retreat.”

“No, Hiji-san is really strong, but that’s a strength that can be predicted and countered. Those opponents that can be countered through planning aren’t scary even if they’re scary.”

“Does that ans I'm unpredictable?

“Yes, it's because you’re an idiot, Yoshii-kun.”

“…”

I’m rather hurt.

“Just joking. What I an is that you can call out two summoned beasts even with low points, and you’re the Punishnt Inspector. You’re more of a threat than those who are simply strong. Of course, the scariest is Sakamoto-kun who can make use of you to the maximum and manipulate the situation.”

Kinosheeta-san mutters. I wonder if I really have such a threatening ability, but it’s rather bad for us F class if the enemy knows of our situation like that. If A class doesn’t know anything, they’ll drop their guard thinking that we’re the worst class in the entire year, and they won’t even bother checking on Muttsurini or Hiji-san’s whereabouts. Maybe our only chance of beating A class is during that war half a year ago. I couldn’t help but think.

“Akihisa-kun, it’s alright now! Please retreat!”

Hiji-san’s voice reaches my ear, and my side’s reformation seems to be complete.

In that case, there’s no need for to appear.

“Bye then, Kinosheeta-san.”

“Humph, I definitely won’t let you run away the next ti.”

It seems Kinosheeta-san doesn’t want to rush over when our side is reorganized, so she doesn’t try to attack while I’m retreating back.

I return back to E classroom that beca F class’ base, and find that it is rather empty.

“Eh? Where’s the rest?”

I ask Yuuji, who stayed behind in the classroom. A lot of people were still taking the replenishing tests until just now.

“I moved everyone to the 4th level during the chaos. That was a perfect chance I couldn’t have asked better.”

Once the opponent sees everyone moving, Yuuji’s plan will be revealed. To , the attack Kubo-kun and the rest did was just a simple crisis, but it doesn’t seem to be like this for Yuuji.

“So we moved them successfully?”

“Un. Thanks to you showing off on the linkway, the enemy got distracted, so the movent was successful.”

“Great.”

I actually feel like the stepping stones to victory are falling to us one after another, pumping up.

“Oh yeah, aren’t you going to move, Yuuji?”

“Idiot, I’m the class rep. Our position will be revealed to the enemy like this.”

“Ah, you’re right.”

According to the rules, the position of the class rep has to be revealed to prevent the war from becoming a stalemate. If Yuuji moves up to the 4th floor earlier, the opponent will imdiately notice that we are scheming sothing.

“So I’m going to stay here until the last minute. Once the rest are moving, I’ll rush there at that mont.”

Until his position is revealed, the opponent will not be able to react to that exact mont. Yuuji will remain on standby at this position without any defenders. This ans that once an opponent breaks through the defenses, the war will imdiately end. However, it’s because we’re going to such an extent that the chances of us beating A class will appear.

“I’ll go over to classroom 3-C to wait then.”

“Oh. go then.”

I put my hand on the classroom door as I prepare to carry out the final battle.

“Akihisa.”

‘Hm?”

Yuuji suddenly calls right before I’m about to walk out of the classroom.

“…We’ve finally reached this point.”

Yuuji’s words has all sorts of aning behind them.

“Yeah.”

I answer back, and Yuuji silently looks down at the notebook beside his hand.

The decisive mont is slowly inching closer.

Once we reach classroom 3-C, I find 5 students there, including Muttsurini, and—

“Hello, Yoshii Akihisa-kun. How are you feeling today?”

For so reason, Takashiro-sempai is here.

“Eh? Why are you here, Takashiro-sempai?”

“…I just asked the sa question.”

According to Yuuji, the 3rd years should all be gathered at the sports hall attending the graduation guidance talk or sothing.

“Because I already knew what that event’s going to be about.”

He already knew what it’s going to be about? That seems rather weird.

“So since I have ti, I decide to check on Miss Hiji Mizuki’s class 2-F whereabouts.”

Hiji-san’s class 2-F’s whereabouts…

“You’re rather insistent on having Hiji-san.”

“Oh my, are you unhappy about that? Pardon for that.”

Takashiro-sempai pretends to bow as usual. For so reason, this sempai’s actions sowhat angers .

“…This can’t be considered the answer to the question.”

I couldn’t contain my rage as my tone grew harsher. But Takashiro-sempai’s eyebrows don’t even twitch even when he’s faced with my tone as he answers with a polite tone.

“Well…this might bring about misunderstandings—”

Takashiro-sempai pauses for a while, and then declares,

“—I want to do indecent things with Miss Mizuki.”

“““WHERE’S THE ROOM FOR MISUNDERSTANDING HERE!!!!!”””

Everybody present exclaid. What is this person talking about?

“Can everyone please be quiet? Even if the new school building has soundproof insulation, it’s not good to be so loud.”

“QUIET!? WHAT NONSENSE ARE YOU SPEWING UNDER BROAD DAYLIGHT!!”

“I WANT TO DO THAT TOO!”

“DO YOU THINK YOU'D BE ALLOWED IF YOU SIMPLY ASK POLITELY!?”

“That’s right, everyone. I really want to do indecent things to her.”

“““ALL OF US HAVE BEEN EARNESTLY WISHING TO DO THIS TOO NO MATTER WHEN!!!”””

Ahh, I see. So this sempai’s just elegant in words, but not gentlemanly at all.

“Is it really alright to be so loud? It seems that everyone is carrying out a secret mission that I don’t think anyone else is to know of.”

“““Ah…”””

Everyone frantically keep quiet. Sempai’s ridiculous words caused us to feel anxious, but if our position’s revealed, this won’t be good.

“But I suppose no one discovered anyone here. Once the doors and windows and closed, the sounds won’t be too loud.”

As the summoning war is an activity that creates lots of commotions, the soundproof facilities of Fumitzuki Gakuen are rather solid. Thus, this level of noise shouldn’t be a problem.

“…Why are you so insistent on Hiji?”

It’s rare for Muttsurini to ask. I’m wondering about this as well.

Hiji-san is definitely cute, and she does have a nice figure, but this sempai in front of doesn’t look like he’s going to lack any won falling for him. In that case, why is he so insistent on choosing Hiji-san?

“I heard of what happened during the baseball tournant?”

“The baseball tournant? You an the summoned beast baseball tournant?”

“Yes. I heard that she believed her classmates words and only focused on pitching earnestly, with her eyes closed too.”

The mory of that devastation, when Hiji-san stepped on the pitcher’s mound during our match against class 3-A, awakens in my mind. At that ti, she really believed in Yuuji’s words, and believed in (sort of), so she worked really hard to pitch. However, instead of trusting, I’ll say that’s simply being tricked…

“I can’t help but have feelings of love budding when I see such an innocent and pure girl.”

“Sorry sempai. It’s really too hard to understand when you say it this way. Can you put it in simpler words?”

“I love girls who’re easily fooled the most.”

Are these his true words?

“So that ans you like girls who aren’t good at saying lies because you’re easily tricked…”

“What are you saying? How can a hardworking person like who learns courtesy and elegance be easily fooled?”

“Sempai, being hardworking and graceful doesn’t have anything to do with being fooled.”

“Eh…?”

Takashiro-sempai gives a look of utter disbelief. Hm, this guy might be good at studying, but—

“You don’t seem to have a smart brain…”

“Wait a second. I don’t want you of all people saying that.”

No, this guy’s definitely more stupid than . I can’t be mistaken here.

“…Well, never mind. The truth is crystal clear to a 3rd person.”

“Yeah, I suppose my allies know what the truth is.”

“That’s rather fierce. It’s like letting a chimpanzee fight an orangutan over intelligence…”

”Ahh…it’s like both of them are fighting to death over a banana…”

These classmates have no sense of foresight at all.

“Speaking of which, there are 3 people in F class if we’re talking about cute girls. But amongst them, I feel that Miss Hiji Mizuki is still the most eyecatching one.”

For so reason, Takashiro-sempai’s words really annoyed . This isn’t jealousy…but how should I put it?

Hiji-san is cute, and sempai did say that Minami and Hideyoshi are cute too. My friends are being praised, but why am I feeling so frustrated?

“Innocent and diligent girls are still the most charming. I feel that Miss Hiji Mizuki is a splendid lady.”

I have no idea what kind of feelings I have exactly as I find myself saying these words to Takashiro-sempai,

“Takashiro-sempai. Please do not see Hiji-san in this light. She doesn’t like losing, and she will do things thoroughly. Minami has so girlish and cute aspects, and Hideyoshi is much more daring than anyone, and cool, you know?”

The reason why I’m not feeling happy isn’t because Hideyoshi and Minami are rated lower than Hiji-san, but another basic reason.

I continue to search for the reason behind this frustrating feeling. At this mont, Takashiro-sempai says to ,

“I have no idea who this girl called Minami is…but I heard that Miss Kinosheeta is very good at acting and concealing her own heart. Soone like her may lie or hide things, so her personality charm is a little—”

“That’s not true at all, sempai.”

I interrupt Takashiro-sempai’s words.

On hearing these words, I think I vaguely understand sothing, why I feel annoyed about this person’s words.

“You’re mistaken, sempai.”

“Mistaken?”

“Yeah. Hideyoshi is good at making poker faces, and it’s not easy to read his heart, but this is because Hideyoshi works hard to do what he wants to do.”

Hideyoshi continues to focus wholeheartedly on developing his own interests and spent quite so effort on it? Is this part of him not even a result, but a flaw? This is probably the charming point about him beside his good point appearance-wise.

“It’s because Hideyoshi works so hard to do what he wants to do that he’s so charming. I even feel that I feel proud having this buddy of mine!”

This sempai only looks at how other people appear like.

He only appraises everyone through what he sees on the surface.

This is the point that I don’t like, which is why I feel repulsed by it.

“Since you can't see their greatest charming points, can you please not comnt on my most important comrades, sempai?”

Even I feel that it’s rude for to use this tone to speak to sempai. However, I had to say those words.

“Yoshii Akihisa-kun. This is your own personal view, and my view may not be similar to yours.”

That’s true but—

“…It’s about ti.”

I want to argue back, but Muttsurini says this as he points to the clock on the wall.

“Ahh, unknowingly…”

Ti unknowingly flew as I was talking to Takashiro-sempai. We have to hurry up and prepare for the raid.

“Sorry, Takashiro-sempai, we still have things to do.”

“I understand. Then, I’ll leave first as an outsider. Besides, it’s enough for to simply watch this summoning war.”

“Simply watch the summoning war?”

The sowhat unnatural words cause to feel sowhat puzzled. Takashiro-sempai ignores my response as he puts his hand on the classroom door.

“Ah, that’s right. Allow to ask one more question, if you don’t mind.”

“Okay, what is it?”

“Yoshii Akihisa-kun. When a person with ability, but is unfairly treated, tries to get back the position he deserves, will you step in to interfere?”

Is this a question on whether those who work hard should get back what they deserve?

In that case, I obviously have only one answer.

“I won’t.”

“Well answered. I hope you can rember these words.”

Takashiro-sempai leaves these words that are hard to comprehend behind, and leaves the scene.

What is that person trying to say? What does he an by interfere?

No…speaking of which, why is that sempai here in the first place? Since his grades are outstanding, he should belong to A class instead. There’s no reason for him to co to the current 3-C classroom.

“That sempai…he’s not here to cheer for us, is he?”

“Probably not. We may be hated by the 3rd years, but definitely not liked by them.”

My classmates’ words enter my ears, and I suddenly rember sothing.

That’s right, that person was the one who helped the opponent co up with the plan during our war against C class—the enemy.

Then, he’s here to interfere with us, is it? But sempai just said that ‘just watching is enough’. In that case, he feels that we will lose? Or does he feel that this strategy will fail?

“And why does he view us as an enemy…?”

I know that 3rd years aren’t on good relations with us 2nd years. In fact, I do have so sort of resisting feeling when it cos to that sempai. However, I don’t understand the reason why that sempai ca out to interfere with us.

If that sempai doesn’t like like how I don’t like him, he probably has no need to co to . No, if I really have to say it, I only had such negative feelings on him just now. We don’t know each other, but the reason why he ca to talk to is—

“…(Tok tok)”

“Eh? What is it, Muttsurini? I’m thinking about sothing—”

“…Concentrate.”

Ah…

Muttsurini’s soft words cause to recover.

I nearly forgot. Now’s an important scene to decide the winner, and I’m thinking about such unnecessary things ssily! Have to concentrate on the task at hand and beat A cass!

“Sorry Muttsurini. Thanks.”

“…It’s nothing.”

I look at the clock to check the current ti.

It’s ti to get ready to attack.

“Is everyone ready?”

”””Okay”””

We nod at each other, open the windows, and get ready to move.
