Vol 2 Chapter 3 (2/2)
I look at her
Receiving e eyes,
”I'll feel embarrassed if you stare at me like that ~”
She says and sain
Unlike Gunjou, she'sThus, she probably won't tellthough
I turn aze in the direction of the
It's snowing again I hate snow As it chills my mood
”Hey shi+nnosuke-kun”
Says Kiri
I did not answer I just continue to stare into the night outside the
”Why did you come?”
””
”This raid is a foolhardy one, don't you think?”
””
”I think it's better to give up on it and also, I've always thought you would be the rational kind in so as precarious as this”
””
”Or, could it be that you are in love with Gunjou-san?”
At that moment, I turn towards Kiri and say
”Shut up Then, let's go with that It's because I love Gunjou so much that I can't help it I really want to kill her That's a hobby of irls That's the reason why I caht?”
I grin foolishly
But, as if she hasn't been listening to me, Kiri looks hard at me, pouts with a troubled look, and says
” if you were to die at that kind of place, then you wouldn't be able to go on that Christmas date with me”
”Did you just hear what I said? That I have a hobby in killing girls On Christmas, I'll kill you too”
”Ah-haha All right Kill me”
”You know”
But, Kiri says with a serious face
”shi+nnosuke-kun It's better to go back This is really a labyrinth that you shouldn't be entering”
But at that s
Biih biih biih
”Paging all students of the Girl Killing Curriculum Please head to your classrooms ASAP In the Musashi+no area of Tokyo, a labyrinth disease victiirl”
It has been close to four hours since Gunjou's disease ation by the research institution has probably ended And that means we have six hours from now before Gunjou transforms into an eternal labyrinth
Since it is standard to spend five hours to learn about the labyrinth and the labyrinth diseased girl, and the last hour to deal with it
shi+ro's eyes open at the sound of the siren He scratches his head, then looks in my direction
Seeing me seated at my seat, he looks a little surprised, then smiles
”Hey shi+nnosuke I knew you'd come”
Completely opposite of Kiri
I scowl and say
”Ah? What the hell're you talking about?”
”You're the type who can't look away fro classmate, aren't you?”
”Don't joke with me”
”Then why did you co should have been the no-brainer choice”
”I could ask the saht you were on bad terms with Gunjou, weren't you?”
But shi+ro answers readily
”I've said this before, but once someone becomes my comrade even once, I'll never abandon him to the best of my ability That's my principle”
”I like how you mention that 'to the best of your ability' part”
On hearing that, shi+ro shrugs his shoulders
”It's foolish to throayas the possibility exists, I won't abandon anyone”
”So, are you going to kill Gunjou? Did she ask you to kill her if she contracts the labyrinth disease?”
shi+ro smiles and looks at me
”I don't see the point of this discussion --- I'm here for the same reason as you, shi+nnosuke Gunjou's the type ould burden herself with everything; she's definitely the good kid on't want to drag others into the labyrinth disease along with her That's why I' there to kill her Since she's a comrade”
A good kid
Comrade
Friends
Lovers
shi+ro could actually say all those disgusting, creepy-sounding words with a straight face I wonder what kind of environet involved with hiet involved with these people, I can't be myself
”I'm different from you I'm here for a different reason”
That's right
I have a reason
I'm here to test my newly obtained 《Holy Sword switch》 It's not because of a cos like friendshi+p I'm here to perform human experimentation I'm not naive Not weak There's no way I'uy
But, shi+ro interrupts
”Ohh I see But I don't believe you You really want to save Gunjou right?”
””
”Just admit it You're”
”You really piss me off I really am”
”A nice guy who just won't admit that”
”We really can't get along The first person I' the labyrinth is you”
”Hahaha”
On hearing our conversation, a girl who I don't know, probably froer and speaks up
”Hey! Aren't you guys the Hero Tea in such a situation!?”
Yousuke then smiles and says
”No no, they're always like that But in the end, shi+nnosuke went to karaoke with us”
I stand up and kick the desk The desk flies toward Yousuke who's rattling away like a know-all
Yousuke holds out his hand calmly
His ic has already activated
”Reverse Force switch ---”
He ood at And I know that ic
An invisible abstract space gets created before Yousuke's hand, and within that space, he's able to freely ravity to a certain extent
The desk gets pulled violently by the strong gravity And it flies towards the young man called Santou
”Eh, ah, hey”
Santou dodges the desk Just in the nick of tiirl who has a boyfriend in class 2 is unable to dodge it
”Ugh”
She can't even scream
”Rebound”
Says Yousuke The desk stops right in theitsthat, he says,
” ah ~, from their movements just now, they probably won't be of much use shi+ro”
shi+ro nods
”Yeah If you guys are co for this labyrinth raid, then fill up all your slots in your 《Headphone Fuzz》 with support-class ic”
On hearing that, Santou says
”Hey, wait a minute I'm the top of class 3 after all ---”
But, cutting him off, Yousuke says
”Himi, show him”
Hi called, and with a fearful face,
”Eh? Erhm, me?”
”We have to s clear to our comrades before class starts, don't we?”
”Erhm but”
”Just do it ~”
Looking flustered, Hi to face Santou She stands before him
As Santou is tall, and Himi has a slender body, there is quite a contrast between their builds
Yousuke says
”By the way, in our teaic is not her forte either But, as she's good at support ic”
Santou looks down at Himi She still appears to be afraid
”Haah and? Could it be that you're trying to tell me that I'm weaker than her?”
On hearing Santou's words, Himi replies
”Erhe it”
”That'll be a breeze”
”Here I come”
Hie it, but immediately after that, pahn, the sound of an impact on his cheek resounds
Santou's eyes widen
”Hey, wait a uard down just now”
”Then I'll do it again Please dodge it”
Her hand flies up
”Kuh”
Just as Santou gathers his energy, pahn, the sound of is out
Even though Santou has a face showing that he is clueless as to what happened, nothing great really happened Santou is just weak
Hietically
” I' you twice”
Yousuke claps his hands twice and says
”Well, this is it ~ so let's er than Himi, compared to shi+ro, shi+nnosuke, and Kiri, ood at defensive ic I'll do my utmost to protect my comrades in this class, so let's do our best in our own roles”
Following that, the five new students seem to have decided to follow shi+ro, Yousuke, and Himi
But that's none of my business To top that, Yousuke easily sidestepped my fury because of what he did
Yousuke looks at
Hietically
shi+ro smirks
I don't find anything funny
” haah”
I sigh and Kiri says from beside me
”shi+nnosuke-kun, you're like an open book, really cute”
”Can you keep quiet?”
”But, your kindness will get you killed this time”
As if to stop , she touches my hand And looks up at me worriedly
I look down at her with half-opened eyes
”Why're you so worried about me?”
She then smiles
” I wonder why Maybe I fell in love with you when you saved me?”
”How should I know?”
”Or, maybe it's because I can see your brilliance, shi+nnosuke-kun Even though you live in the sa you still haven't lost your kindness”
Live in the same world
Thatin the same world as Liezel
A world where the words 'morals' and 'ethics' don't exist, where military corporations continuously conduct human experimentation daily
A world where countries force teenage soldiers to put on 《Headphone Fuzz》s and compel them to enter labyrinths
Furtheric is loaded into those 《Headphone Fuzz》s
If you lose, you die
If you lose, you die
If you lose, you die
Thus, there is no other choice but to win There is no other choice but to step on your comrades and win
I have always been in such a place, and I could feel faintly that Kiri is also from that kind of world
Different from Gunjou
Different from shi+ro
Right fro in a dark, dirty world as me
Her hand grip strengthens
I look down at her and ask
”I don't knohere you got the impression from, but I'm not kind at all”
”Ah-haha”
”Rather than that, what did you mean by the same world? Where on earth did you live?”
Kiri answers
” in a world where I dreauy I like on Christmas”
In the end, she's still not being honest about it
She won't speak the truth
She
Thus,
”I've said this just now, but it's less to talk to you”
Kiri says sadly
”Those are h”
”I don't believe you Neither is there a need to believe you”
”I know I know, but well ~”
Her grip on er With a troubled look, she presses it against her chest Whether it is an act or not, I do not know I also do not knohy she would do such a thing Does she want so from me?
Don't tell me she's really in love with me?
Kiri pouts her lips and says
” you're so worried about Gunjou-san, but yet don't believe a thing I said, it's really unfair”
What is this wo?
” I'uess”
Kiri is cute At the very least, her looks are way above average, I suppose She also has a good figure, and large breasts If the petite, flat-chested Gunjou were to hear that, she would explode in fury
But Kiri will never say all that
Because she is not adorable
Because she is too strong Because she has received the world's darkness Because she sle word of truth
Because she is able to abandon her comrades
I sit on the chair With her hand still grabbing mine, I say,
”Can you let go?”
But she looks at me mischievously,
”Don't wanna”
But, on hearing that, I brush her hand away
”Oh my ~”
She sain That face of hers is certainly cute But I don't get that cuteness of hers Does she really likeme?
I say
”As I thought, there's nothing to talk to you about I don't want to be manipulated”
”I'm not manipula”
But, her words stop As if she's troubled, her face contorts for an instant, but she breaks into a sain
”you I have an ulteriorhaah aaah”
She sighs to herself and looks up at the ceiling Drained
Seems like she has own troubles to deal with, but it's none of my business
She isn't telling me her true intention
That goes the same for me
In that case, there's no need for us to talk
And at that moment, the door to the classroom finally opens
”All right, I'in our class ~!”
Our homeroom teacher Honjou Tsukasa walks in
Carrying a stack of documents
Behind her, there's another male teacher who's around thirty, and another female teacher around forty
They are probably the homeroom teachers for class 3 and 4
The male teacher says
”All right, this time”
But Honjou Tsukasa interrupts him
”Who said you can take over soe here so keep quiet”
” guh”
The oes silent
The forty-year old fe outside the classroom,
” erho? Honjou-sensei, you are the one responsible for this class right?”
On hearing that, the female student who has a boyfriend in class 2 stands up and says
”Sensei! Please don't say so irresponsible”
However, the feirl and says,
”Well, please do your best Honjou-sensei is a capable teacher, so you should be fine”
And she leaves
”Sensei!”
The girl hollers but Honjou Tsukasa seems unbothered She places the documents on her desk and hits the blackboard with a hand
”No, class is starting! The tiirl and save the world!”
And thus, the lesson on the labyrinth
No, the lesson on Mizuiro Gunjou begins
