Chapter 31 - 30
Mibu Sayaka woke up from Aika's sleep spell a few hours after she was brought to the nurse's office of the school.
The fighting had ended with most of the infiltrators apprehended and very few escaping preemptively. Damage to the school was minimal, with only a few areas and windows broken from the explosion, and no students who fought against the infiltrators were heavily injured from the brawl.
Sitting on the bed, a solemn, regretful, and defeated expression painted Sayaka's face as she began to tell Mari, Mayumi, Kaito, Yuuji, Aika, Tatsuya, Miyuki, Erika, and Leon who had co to listen to her words.
"For over a year ago, Captain Tsukasa has been exhorting the kendo team to bring about the end of discrimination by magic. The captain once lured
to the Blanche office as well. Apparently, his brother is the head of the Japan branch."
"Not long after I enrolled, there was an incident in which I was discriminated against as a Course 2 Student... I think that is why I listened so intently to what the captain had to say."
"What kind of incident is it?"
Sayaka flinched slightly and beca uneasy as she glanced towards Mari for a mont before looking down to her hands resting on her lap.
"Um... It was when the Kenjutsu team had caused a disturbance during the recruitnt period. And I saw Watanabe-senpai's magic sword skills when she suppressed it, which took my breath away. So right away, I asked if she would take
on and advise , but she just coldly brushed
off..."
"What?! Mibu, is that true...?"
Mari looked genuinely surprised at her words, and even without needing to know about the ani, Yuuji knew she wasn't the type of person who would do such a thing. After all, she was the first person who acknowledged Tatsuya's skills and recruited him into the Disciplinary Committee. Moreover, she had also displayed her dislike of discrimination against Course 2 students multiple tis and built her Disciplinary Committee around that. So Mari discriminating against Sayaka because she was a Course 2 student was extrely unlikely.
"You said "You're not a match for , so it would be a waste of ti. Go pick out an opponent you're worthy of." I thought it was probably because I was a Course 2 student. And the thought of that..."
"H-Hey, wait a minute. I rember what happened that day. I've never brushed you off."
"Eh?"
"If I rember correctly, this is what I told you that day. "With my skills, I could never hope to be a match for you. It would be better if you practiced with soone worthy of your skills." Am I wrong...?"
"Eh...? U-Uhm..."
"Wait, Mari. So you said that you're declining to practice with Mibu-san because she's stronger than you?"
"Well, of course, if magic were involved then my skills might be superior. But there is no way I could ever beat Mibu, who has trained in pure swordsmanship, with my sword."
"Then... It was all... a misunderstanding on my part? I can't believe this... I'm such an idiot..."
Tears began to fell from her cheeks, darkening the white covers of her bed as she sobbed.
"Just assuming... misunderstanding you like that... Putting myself down... Wasting a whole year, resenting your kindness..."
"I don't think that was a waste."
"...Tsubakihara-kun?"
"...This is what Erika said after seeing your swordsmanship. You beca so powerful, like a different person compared to when you were in junior high. That is undeniably the result of your swordsmanship skills you polished with your own two hands."
"That's right~"
Aika smiled brilliantly from behind Yuuji, and grabbed Sayaka's hands with hers.
"Instead of wallowing in your sorrows, you kept on improving and polishing yourself. There's no way that year could be called a waste~!"
"Kiryuu-san..."
Slowly, as if water had overflowed from the dam, Sayaka burst into tears as she clung onto Aika tightly, sobbing and crying her heart out as Aika gently stroked her back.
As soone who was "diocre" and never "tried" to work hard to achieve greatness and improve herself, Sayaka's diligence looked very beautiful to her. Instead of giving up after being discriminated against, she continues to train, improve, and polish herself to be better. Such a thing was extrely beautiful to her, enough for Aika to be envious of her perseverance and diligence. After all, she was soone who was satisfied with "passing" and simply indulged in her porn.
It was only until she t Lelouch, Satoru, Tatsuya, and Yuuji that she began to work hard and do her best to get used to her new powers. After all, as the only one who was a regular human before getting the Group Chat, she didn't want to be left behind by them. For the first ti in her life, she didn't want to simply "pass
