#11 Their story: Aris ril Letia’s story

“We’re out of time!”

“Damn it, breaaaaakkk!”

As if this moment was the last in my life.

I focused and compressed my spread-out mana into a single point.

“This kid’s getting scarier.”

Professor Muam scowled as he looked at me.

But it can’t be helped. Why? Because from now the silver devil is getting closer!

“Diiiiieeeee!”

“Hold up, isn’t ‘die’ still a bit too much to your teacher…?”

As Professor Muam scowled and put his hand forward, water gathered and made a blue shape.

-Kagagagagagagk!

As the red beam and the blue mass collided the sound screeched throughout the first floor hallway.

“Nkiuuagh!”

“Nhoooooo!”

At the same time, I could hear screams of pain as well as the tushitushi sound from the other end of the hallway.

“Why is it impossible to get used to that!”

“Damn it, if you’ve got time to talk, break through this thing!”

The words ‘tushitushi’ began to come nearer and nearer.

“Please, can’t you let us off just this once? The student council isn’t here either!”

“Ahh, true. If the student council kids were here then even I would be having trouble.”

Unlike my frantic self, Professor Muam was calm.

Damn it, someone who hadn’t even been hit by that thing would never know our pain!

“Pleeeeaaaaaasse!”

-Do your best, Aris!

-Help me out, goddess!

-Don’t wanna! I got beaten up with you last time I did!

I asked for help from the goddess that was only cheering me on from the sidelines as always, but I was instantly refused.

It seemed like the time when I didn’t desummon her and got beaten up by the silver devil together had quite a large effect on her.

“I, have no other choice as well!”

I gave my everything to the spear.

Not just the mana that had dispersed to the surroundings, but my all, a single strike imbued with my soul!

“The kids in this academy really are weird…”

If he’d been hit just once, he’d understand why.

But not knowing that, Professor Muam simply did his job to the best of his abilities.

“Daaaaaammmnn iiit aalllllllll!”

Our largest fighting force, the student council all vanished overniht.

At first I thought they’d run away, but according to Professor Nicerwin the entirety of the student council are at school.

And moreover, they’re eating and sleeping at school as they focus on academia!

The moment I heard that.

I realised that the student council had gone and caused something, and Professor Nicerwin solved that problem.

They were probably imprisoned somewhere in this academy right now.

And because of that our chances of victory plummeted!

“Hyaaaaaahp!”

The devil had already come down, any further attacks are irrelevant.

And because of that I threw my everything into a single attack , and the result…

“N, no way!”

“Uraaaaaaahhhh!”

As I saw the blue mass slowly but surely split apart I felt an electrifying euphoria run through my body.

“I did it!”

“…is whatcha think!”

And that euphoria quickly vanished, replaced by a fear that pierced through by body.

“Sa, save me…”

“Told ya unni doesn’t kill?”

The silver devil raised her hands high with a bright smile, but I had already attacked with all my strength.

There’s no way I can run away, right?

“Then please, hit me as little as possible.”

And so the only thing I can do is beg like this.

“Wiing? I’m the type t’ eat the tastiest things last…”

I looked around. Nothing. There was no one left but me.

“I, I don’t taste good.”

“Nope, you and the goddess ya contracted with are the tastiest to my hands in this entire academy. Dat’s somefin’ this goddess Arcadia can guawantee!”

I got guaranteed something I never wanted confirmed.

To put it simply, that means since I’m the best to hit, she’s going to hit me for a long time, isn’t it?

“Noooooooooo!”

“Yes, scream and struggle like that! That’s even tastier!”

I had no strength in my legs to allow me to stand up, so I tried to escape by crawling along the floor, but I couldn’t proceed forward.

All I could do was wait for the devil’s mercy, that was watching my struggles with an evil grin.

It was then.

“Uwaaaa!”

“Run! Whatever you do, keep running!”

“It’s the devil, the devil dead ahead!”

A group clad in pyjamas came screaming down from the second floor.

But even from afar, any student of Yugrasia would recognise them as the student council.

“Wiing? Here alweady?”

As I saw the devil’s two eyes sparkle, I realised.

Ahhh… I have been saved.

I, am no longer the last to be eaten!

“What a shame…”

As I looked at the silver devil licking her chops, I was certain that I had been saved.

“Hmm… then unni, let’s play with me some more later?”

I don’t want to. Even if the world was to end, I will not play with you.

As I saw the tiny fist come closer as I made that resolve, I could fall into a peaceful rest with just one punch.

The next day.

I heard the story of what had happened to my knights on a white horse… or rather sandbags in pyjamas that were the student council from Professor Nicerwin.

And… I decided to be thankful of the fact, that I could go to school.

#12 Their story: A certain student council president’s story

“Alright, advance scouts, lead the way.”

Using a simple light magic, we began descending the dark stairs.

This academy was seriously screwed in all sorts of ways to the point where I was wondering whether I was going to the academy or exploring an ancient ruin.

What if we never realised that this was the school’s rooftop from Risen’s brave leap of faith?

How much longer would we have searched the ceiling for the escape route?

No hang on, even before that.

Just what was Professor Nicerwin thinking to remodel the academy’s rooftop like this?
