This news reached Japan at about 7 am on April 1, 2097.
Tatsuya and Miyuki arrived yesterday from Okinawa, watched an ergency news release sitting at the dinner table.
-... This is not an April Fool's joke?
-The usual third-rate jokes would be more appropriate. - Frowning, Tatsuya answered Miyuki, who asked in a frightened, unbelieving voice.
Using the remote control, Tatsuya divided the monitor screen in the dining room into 4 parts. Each part of the screen showed news with subtitles on different channels. Everywhere it was talking about the sa bad news.
- ... Apparently, it's still not a joke.
The area of Santa Cruz in the territory of the forr Bolivia in South Arica, local ti on March 31, 17:00. In a battle between the Brazilian army and independent ard guerrillas, which continued uninterruptedly for three months, the embattled Brazilian army used Strategic Class Magic "Synchronized Linear Fusion".
-The scale of the explosion is estimated at several kilotons? ... The problem is, in what situation was the magic used. If around a mountain or a desert, then the damage was limited only by the fighting forces.
"What if they used it near urban areas or refugee camps ...?"
-In this area there are often fights, therefore there should not be many civilians.
Imdiately after Tatsuya answered Miyuki, the news showed an official ssage from the Brazilian army.
- ... The epicenter of the explosion was in the center of the ghost town, in which guerrillas were based. About 1000 dead, only mbers of the ard partisan organization beca victims. - Tatsuya read the text from the screen with a grim face. His face was not pale, but his eyes expressed despair. Under the fixed gaze of Miyuki and Minami, who are looking at this uneasy expression, Tatsuya continued his evasive tone in an uncharacteristic manner. - I did not think that "Synchronized Linear Fusion" would be released for such a quantity of enemy.
-... Then, the actual number of victims ...
-At the mont I can only say that there are more of them. However, there is no doubt that among the victims there are not only the guerrillas of the battle.
-How so!? Miyuki was indignant at Tatsuya's suggestion. Sitting opposite, Tatsuya stretched out his right hand and laid it on Miyuki's left hand. Miyuki did not beco enthusiastic, as usual in such a situation. But to so extent the anxiety passed.
-Because the division of guerrillas combat forces and civilians in this case is ambiguous. For example, in the regular army, supply teams are also considered to be a combat force, but people providing partisan supplies are generally classified as civilians. - Having said this, Tatsuya raised his hand from Miyuki's hand to her head.
"Even if we worry about them, there's nothing we can do now." - Tatsuya slightly patted Miyuki's hair. It was a rough movent with such a gentle hand. Fixing her hair, Miyuki looked at Tatsuya relaxed and clearly was happy. Seeing that Miyuki had cald down, Tatsuya again looked at the monitor showing the news.
"Despite everything, Brazil seems to have easily recognized the use of Strategic Class Magic ..." Tatsuya muttered, talking to himself. It was just an expression of doubt, but for Miyuki it sounded like an ominous prediction that "an era is coming when Strategic Class Magic will be used quite often." Miyuki felt the chill run over her back growing into a small tremor all over her body.
9 am. Tatsuya, Miyuki and Minami ca to school, despite the fact that there were spring holidays. Although Tatsuya was worried about getting further information about the use of Strategic Class Magic, but, unfortunately, they had a planned schedule. Because of their stay in Okinawa until yesterday, the eting to prepare the entrance ceremony for the school was postponed.
With the graduation of previous high school students, and with the start of the new academic year, in a few days Tatsuya and his peers will beco pupils of the third, final year. In October of last year, the new school board of First High was, as usual, assembled from the most well-known and top- ranking students on the list of pupils.
But this did not an that Tatsuya had strong emotions about this. He did not have to suffer a sense of responsibility, like Miyuki. He could only hope as much as possible that there would be no problems.
When they entered the school board room Tatsuya, Miyuki and Minami were already expecting Izumi, Kasumi and a first-grader who will represent the newcors of this year. Kasumi was as a replacent for the head of the disciplinary committee, who could not co.
It seems that the representative of the newcors, Mitsuya Shiina, was familiar with Izumi and Kasumi for a long ti, because they were talking lively when the three entered, headed by Tatsuya.
"Miyuki-senpai, have not seen each other!" Ah ... Today you are beautiful, as always ... No, you have beco much more beautiful ...
But at the sa mont, when Izumi noticed Miyuki's appearance, she jumped up from the chair she was sitting on.
"Good morning, Izumi-chan." Thank you for doing various things in my absence. - Miyuki was taken by surprise by the enthusiastic greeting of
Izumi, but she could skillfully reply with gratitude with a smile on her face.
"Miyuki-senpai, these are undeserved words of praise!" Ah, is it true that such happiness happened to ? ... - These were not just words, Izumi was literally ready to faint.
"Izumi-chan, you're exaggerating." - Miyuki smiled and lightly rebuked Izumi. Miyuki knew already from personal experience, what it is not to stop, until she herself will say a couple of such words.
"Kasumi-chan, and good morning to you." Thank you for your work on replacing Yoshida-kun.
-Good morning, President, Shiba-senpaii, Sakurai-san. "Unlike the twin sister in the clouds, Kasumi responded with a polite greeting to the proper junior high school student. After Tatsuya's and Minami's answer, amidst the awkward silence that arose, Miyuki drew attention to the new one.
-Good morning. It's nice to et you, Mitsuya-san. I am Shiba Miyuki, the president of the school board of First High.
-Good morning. My na is Mitsuya Shiina. Nice to et you. - Shiina with a strain on her face bowed to the wide-smiling Miyuki. Dark brown lush airy hair slightly jumped, and it beca clear that she was wearing headphones. Raising his head with a face expressing the cry "A ~ ...!
