Chapter 109.1 - Abnormality and White Lily Academy [10] – part 1 (1/2)

109. Abnormality and White Lily Academy [10] – part 1

Idol, Sid-san and I moved to the first exercise hall next to the gymnasium.

There was a large square stone stage in the building, which was only slightly smaller than the gymnasium.

The swordsmanship club was practicing there until just a while ago, but…

When Idol explained the situation, they gave up the place readily.

And as the members of swordsmanship club watched from the sleeves of the stage,

「Come, Allen. We can fight to our hearts content!」

Idol excitedly took my hand and tried to get up to the stage.

However, Sid-san stopped her.

「Oi, wait a minute, Idol. Why are you first?」

「I’m the one who got this place. It’s my natural right.」

「That doesn’t have anything to do with anything. First of all, you lost at the Sword King Festival just recently! It’s not like you’re going to win, so stand back!」

「…Kuh. Who was the one that got beaten to a ragged state at the Big Five Holy Festival…?」

One thing I’ve learned in the past two weeks.

The short tempered Sid-san and the belligerent Idol – the chemistry between the two is the worst.

And as I heaved a sigh loudly,

「I’m gonna kill you.」

「…Let’s see you try.」

The ground under Sid-san’s feet began to freeze, whereas electricity began to flow through Idol’s body.

(Oi, Oi, give me a break…!)

If these two fight in such a place, this first exercise hall will surely be blown to bits.

Then, the trouble I went through to prohibit soul dress will be for naught.

「P-Please calm down. Uh… I got it! Why don’t you decide the order of battle with “Rock, Paper, Scissors” fairly? 」

I forced my way in between them right away and managed to calm them.

「Muh… If Allen says so.」

「Tch, whatever.」

Idol agreed, followed by Sid-san’s consent.

「Then, let’s start… Rock, Paper…」

I took the lead, and the two shook down their right fist towards their open left palm.

Looking closely at both of their hands… Sid-san’s hand was paper, and Idol’s hand was rock.

(The opponent for the first match is Sid-san.)

The moment when Sid-san laughed, assured of his victory, Idol’s face clouded and tremendous electricity ran through her whole body.

(Flying Thunder God?! And that amount of output…)

But why on earth…?

When I was closely observing Idol’s hand, something incredible happened.

(This!)

Her『hand』slowly changed shape.

『Change』that transcends human reaction rate.

『Change』just before the right hand hit her open left palm.

As a result.

Sid-san’s hand remains the same『Paper』.

On the other hand, Idol’s hand was『Scissors』.

Idol became the first one to cross swords with me.

「Fufu, my victory…」she said, and took my hand and went up to the stage.

(That feels a little sly, but…)

There was no rule that the use of soul dress is prohibited in this rock-paper-scissor.
