AN: I have returned.
From here on I will be updating Arifureta bit by bit basically like usual at 6 PM Saturday.
It's a story that is being done as though for Shirakome to have fun, but I'll be happy if I can have fun with you readers again.
About the story of school trip at the previous chapter, unexpectedly there were a lot of voices asking to continue it, so I tried to write a bit.
Although, it's not a story that can continue for that much so, (or rather, I don't even think about the chronological order and so on of this story)
It feels somewhat half-hearted (sweat)
Maybe I'll write it properly again somewhere.
Also, the Cthulhu term and rule that appear here are different from the actual thing. I prioritize the mood. I'm sorry.
It turned out long so I split the chapter.
After this I'll upload one more chapter at 7 PM.
The school trip that they were only told just yesterday.
Their destination was Kyoto. The travel of several hours using bus ended in no time at all.
The rookie bus guide had taken out all the plans for killing time mid journey she had prepared and her cheek muscles were starting to cramp from making twitching smile too much. She was relieved from the bottom of her heart that they finally arrived.
It helped that the students had good mood. The students this day were relatively cold, they wouldn't react even when she prepared things like karaoke or quiz, but the students here (especially Nakano and Saitou) were really hyped up.
Although they frequently showed speech and conduct that were far removed from mon sense, it was relatively endurable if she persisted in seeing and hearing nothing. The bus driver who was similarly seeing and hearing nothing casually giving her follow-up(mental analysis) was also a great help.
And so, even after watching the party trick (?) of the students that began from some time ago, even when currently right beside her there was a female student juggling countless knifes in a level that the video of it could be uploaded to the "World Shocking Video" even while looking like she felt it troublesome, the rookie bus guide was still enduring!

「Sonobe~. You're finished with just ten? You can do more aren't you?」
Tamai Atsushi said such thing with a disappointed look. It seemed that he wasn't satisfied with the juggling of ten knifes.
The rookie bus guide thought.
In the first place it's already out for a student to carry knife! Sensei! That child is carrying knife see! What's more it's a lot! Why are you making face as though it's normal!?
「Well, if I get serious then I can do around thirty, but the ceiling is low so that's impossible.」
「Sonobe-san, that's amazing~」
Sensei! What do you mean 「That's amazing~」!? What's with that carefree expression! Sure it looks cute, sheesh. But! Your cute student look like she is going to spend a sharp cutting life you know!? Please give her your guidance!
The rookie bus guide acted the straight man in her heart and stared at Aiko. Reach, this unsaid feeling!
「??」
Aiko tilted her head in puzzlement. A beat later she smiled carefreely for some reason.
The rookie bus guide whispered 「Damn iiit」. It didn't reach. But she was cute――how should she deal with this helpless feeling……
But, there a small whisper entered the rookie bus guide's ear.
「Ten more minutes……」
「Ah, yes.」
The bus driver was wearing his hat so low over his eyes that it was unclear how he could see the front, giving other nothing but anxiety seeing it. According to such bus driver, it seemed that they would reach the first sight-seeing area for today in ten more minutes.
The rookie bus guide cleared her throat with a cough and pulled herself together, then she urged Yuuka who had moved to juggle playing cards without her noticing to return to her seat.
The cards weren't only juggled up, they also flew horizontally, furthermore they returned back like boomerang. Although the rookie bus guide was entranced by the artistic juggling of dozens of card moving like that, but she forced herself to do her job properly.
Yuuka returned to her seat while getting applause from everyone. Her cheeks were slightly red from feeling a bit embarrassed.
「Sonobe-san, thank you very much. Everyone else also have amazing skill. This is the first time for me seeing students this amazing.」
She smiled sweetly. Inside her heart she was trembling with fear, thunderstruck, and on the verge of madness, but as a bus guide she couldn't forget to smile. Muscular pain of facial muscles? Bring it on!
Saitou and Nakano reacted.
「Please say that "This is the first time for me" one more time!」
「Put your heart into it! Please say it while looking a bit embarrassed!」
Truly a straight sexual harassment. The rookie bus guide's expression was screaming.
Anyway, card abruptly stabbed into the forehead of the two. 「My head, my heaaad-」 The two idiots were writhing around on their seat.
「Chih, it got dirty.」
Blood stuck to the card. Yuuka treated it like a dirty thing just as she said by wiping the card on Saitou's cloth. Her eyes were pletely cold that if anyone faint of heart saw her they would bee weak in the knees. Though all the other female students also had the same eyes.
「Guide-san, sorry. The girls in the class will firmly punish these two idiots.」
「Be, before that, blood is going spu~rt, spu~~rt out from their forehead like fountain though-. The hospital-」
It was a sudden bloodshed. The rookie bus guide was flustered.
There Kaori sighed while ing their way. Her gaze was unusually cold. She slapped a large band-aid on the two's forehead. 「Higii!?」 Saitou and Nakano screamed in harmony. *twitch twitch*.
「Geez, you shouldn't dirty the bus with blood! Nakano-kun and Saitou-kun is also playing too much!」
Seeing Kaori giving a scolding, the rookie bus guide had a thought. 「No, that's not the problem!」 She thought.

「I, I'm sorry for my students behavior! I'll scold them for this later. I'm really sorry!」
The small animal teacher bowed her head repeatedly. Her figure apologizing for her students who were screwing around too much really looked like a teacher, but as expected it seemed like she wasn't concerned by the bloodshed itself.

For a moment the bus guide was assaulted by a feeling that wanted to scream loudly while escaping by crashing through the window, but she would die if she did that so she barely desisted from doing it. Above all else, as a bus guide, there was no way she could abandon the guest!
「E, e~rr, everyone, looks like you all are full of energy there! After this, in less than ten minutes, we will arrive at our first sightseeing area for today, the Fushimi Inari Shrine. After that, we will go around several sightseeing area just as written in the guidebook before we head toward our hotel for today.」
'Yee~~s!' The students replied back energetically again with liveliness that was different from student these days. The rookie bus guide's mind that was almost toppled was slightly healed from that. These students were actually weled guest for a bus guide if the supernatural something they nonchalantly showed frequently wasn't counted.
'I'll do my best!' The rookie bus guide fired up herself while taking a bold action of releasing her personal information in order to shrink the distance a little between herself and the students.
「Honestly speaking, I came from Kyoto. I lived at the area slightly north from here, near famous places like Kurama hot spring and Kuramadera that everyone surely has heard before. Because of that, I know about various things like the good hidden places and so on, so please ask me anything without reservation.」
'Ooo~' The students immediately showed surprise good-spiritedly. How should she say it, this calls had an amazing sense of unity, they looked like they really got along with each other.
She was putting her guard up because they were the "returnees
