Vol 1 Chapter 3 (1/2)

uo

It was a bloody red dusk In an unpopular residential area, the road reflects the heat from above

Death have approached before the very eyes of Takeru

That was a huge mass of iron

It was a truck

Before he noticed it, he was already on the verge of getting hit

He didn’t have the time to be terrified

In front of Takeru, the brakes have been stepped on

The truck leaned forward and it’s side was seen

It was the ed with strong force

He can see the blue sky and was knocked into his back

He saw sorandfather—

Takeru thought he should help his grandfather

His foot was caught on by the toppled truck

The old man smiles Takeru smiled because of his safety

But behind that s red

It was fire

It seenited

And the fire violently burst into flames

As for Takeru, all of his otten cold

With the way things are going, his grandfather will–

Takeru reo Then he ran immediately to their warehouse

Takeru was stopped by his grandfather with a desperate voice

His desperation convinced Takeru He really thought that what his grandfather said was not a lie

But soet “that” from their warehouse That was his hunch

The warehouse was forcefully opened

It was in the center of the pedestal

It had no sheath It was a katana wrapped by a white cloth

Reon pattern coiling around it

After getting it, he irandfather is

The katana which had a dragon pattern shone

Black Out (The world went dark)

The house and the truck Before he noticed it, everything had vanished

The only one there was Takeru together with the katana with a black dragon coiling around it

He doesn’t knohether that was just a black space

It’s just that, it looked pitch black in nothingness

In his eyes, “so” moved

The black dragon pattern that coils around the katana had moved

The black dragon have crawled all the way into the katana

He tried to throw the katana but it already had crawled it’s way to his hands

The black dragon coiled around his arm And it entered his arm smoothly The hilt of the katana entered to the palm of his hand As if there was no skin on Takeru, it sank to the deepest part of his body—-

And then, Takeru sprang up with a stiff voice

“……daain”

Takeru gru up from his futon

The pajaht by Sakuya from nowhere have become sweaty

“That’s right From today onwards, I’m admitted to the Academia…”

♦♦♦

The day after the duel

After the duel Takeru had yesterday, the chief director permitted the admittance of Takeru to enter the Academia

The Acadeh school Each year level of students are divided into ten classes

Wherein Takeru takes the sainally the skill the Yaht of However, als had changed (TLN: 光波剣(Kouhaken) ana Luht Waves I’ more relevant than just that)

For example, Flames with their fire attribute and Zamilzani with their water attribute as their personalized special attributes (TLN: 炎熱剣科 ht and has the furigana Flaana Zaestion for Zamilzani(ザミルザニイ)?)

However, in addition to the Light Waves of the Lu Heat and Water Snow attributes It’s aHeat hence IHeat 水雪 is Water and Snow and I can’t think of anything for it Maybe Water + Snow = Melting Snow? xD)

And the depart top is Konozuka Sakuya and it see it

—That’s what Takeru heard from the homeroom teacher in the staff room

“T-then Kisaragi Takeru-san Please come here Hi-hiiii P-p-please don’t come near meeee”

Having teary eyes while saying those words was Takeru’s who seemed to be a homeroom teacher

Nowthat she still looks like a student Because she’s wearing a suit, you can barely tell that she’s not a student Her se She says with a tensed tone

“A-a-a-a-anyway, let’s go to the classroom”

With a nod, Takeru followed the small back of his teacher

“Kisaragi-san Let me tell you this beforehand if you still don’t know”

“What do you mean?”

“I-in my class, there’s a certain iron rules that you must always abide to”

Is it a local rules within the classroom?

An existing rules that to be adhered to So that a student cannot disobey Is that it?

“………………………(whisper whisper)”

He had a hard ti to her small voice

That’s why Takeru approached the small back of his teacher and asked,

“Excuse me I didn’t heard what you said Once more please”

“Hoheeeeee!? A-ahe, ahiiiiiii! That’s! That’s!”

His teacher turned towards her back Upon seeing Takeru’s face in an instant, she let out a strange voice and flew backwards

Then she rolled down on the corridor She nailed her body down on the wall and groaned with an “Uwaaa”

“U-um…?”

Takeru confusingly asked her and she slowly stood up and said

“T-teacher have a serious case of anthropophobia! Please be a bit more careful…!” (TLN: Anthropohobia is the fear of stares)

Takeru becaht

Meanwhile, his teacher explains the local rule

“N-never approach sensei within a 1 meter radius okay?”

“Uh… okay…”

“That’s rule number one Rule nury at me And then, the third rule This one is very i with sensei”

“O-okay……”

“Having said that, do not look between my eyebrows Because if you did, I would definitely see your face Please look atwithPlease treat me just like a lovely, newly born rabbit-chan In other words, sensei is a lovely, newly born rabbit-chan”

“…is that so?”

What a brazen human she is Takeru had a very poor of distance with people and he didn’t thought about it until now

Their steps halted when they reached the classroom What ritten on the plate in front of the classroom was Class 1-9

Because Sakuya is also a first year, she ht be in a different class

After co to this world, he spent all his time with Sakuya

Sensei opened the door with her hand and itnoise

It certainly is a classroo the classroom Takeru knows of

Blackboards, chairs and desks Generally what describes a school

There were several dozens of students inside that looked at Takeru It’s a ju races inside

However, there’s no air of a single japanese person inside

To their glances, sensei was shaking her shoulder in fear

“U-u-u-ui Takeru-kun”

Every classmates of him simultaneously opened they mouths:

”Woah！”

as they made a fuss

Sensei, who’s next to Takeru jue voice fro her forehead to the teacher’s desk, she rolled in pain and face the wall

“Scary, scary The students hates sensei…hii…gu-guh S-so harsh Monster students are scary They’re Monstudents”(TLN: She says モンスチュ here Basically taking Mon from monster and Suchu(Stu) from student)

No one seems to be worried of sensei It must be usual case inside here

And then, the reactions coirls were considerably favorable

“Yi-yippee! T-the Yauy is in our class Lucky~”

“You see, he’s froe which is Yamato”

“Moreover, he’s quite cool”

Though they were nice words, and Takeru saw,

The boys’ reaction were divided into three: Those who show a friendly reaction, those who doesn’t care in the slightest, and those who gives glares while clicking their tongue

Takeru speaks upon seeing them

“My nai Takeru Because of sonorant of social etiquette of this place However, I hope to get along with you all”

He did a safe greeting but, a bigger reaction came back obviously

“Takeru-kun, let’s get along well~!”

“I-I have a lot to tell you Dihihi~” (TLN: Dihihi = creepy laughter Run Takeru! Your chastity is in danger)

And all of the girls wave their hands

“Y-yeah…”

So drawn to some force

“Then, the first period will start Ah, everyone, please lower to your desks a bit more So that sensei won’t see Takeru-kun! Anyone who fails to do so will have demerits”

While saying those words, sensei stood before the blackboard

“Originally, this tiineering However, in order for us to proceed forward, let us review lightly on e learned”

Sensei began to write letters in the blackboard

“First of all, this Academia studies techniques on how to use the 《Sword》 The world’s logic got rewritten by the 《Sword》 thought it’s not that oic justpercentage of the declining Ether for activating weapons Is there any questions? Yes Takeru-kun” (TLN: 論理式 ic)

“……How do I pinpoint this Um in other words, to know the laws behind it’s nature as strong as possible, we must learn the law itself Is that how it is?”

“That’s right Seems your head’s not that bad just like how you look—–hii, d-d-d-don’t g-g-g-glare at me p-p-please It’s a hindrance on class”

It’s not really anthropophobia, but more of a persecution complex

“No I’ Please continue”

“Aheht physics studied on Though vaguely, it’s not that good Out of 100 potential people, with only 5 people being able to use it, 95 are just losses with ten people who can use a tenth of it’s power are already being defeated”

“Excuse h…”

Sensei while looking away, opened her mouth

“……please do your best”

Nodding to Takeru, sensei drew a figure on the blackboard next

“This Luether with Land, Water, Fire, Wind, Void, and Darkness have representatives for respected departht Students who has 《False Sword》 with them has various attributes with As to why they study them, for example, a 《False Sword》 of “Fire” attribute can do aother attributes But to that extent, it’s perforht That’s just how it is” (TLN: 無non-existent But what does it represents on eleht It’s Void)

A circle was then drawn on the blackboard In the middle was, Void with the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind on the sides

“With this, the nearer it is, the higher the efficient power conversion With a Fire 《False Sword》, then it would be Fire at 100, Void at 75, and Earth and Wind at 50 It can’t use it’s opposite ele of opposite eleht and Darkness are quite special I’ht now”

Yes Somehow he understand He understands but he will never be able to understand it with all these infor dumped at him at once

“Ah, and also, equations on creating ical creatures They are too much complicated to performAnd also—-”

Takeru whose consciousness is gradually thinning out but somehow he endures it

“Oh? Takeru-kun You’re closing your eyes in consideration for sensei right? Additional points for you”

♦♦♦

Recess tiirls from his seat approached him

“Hey, that was aainst that Noel from the Vento Ah, my name’s Cosette by the way” (TLN: 風魔剣科 means Demon Wind Sword Department as read as ヴィント(Vinto) but this is wind stuff so Vento fits right?)

With a hair color just like a squirrel, this sirl had a smile floated on her face while she placed her hands on Takeru’s desk

This girl had a 《False Sword》 which is a slim sword attached to her waist

“……um”

Did Takeru do so cool? He doesn’t know In this world, what does amount to be called as cool? He doesn’t know and it made him puzzled

“Because, Noel-san In Vento, she’s one of the top ten ranker you know An elite person you know”

“Is that really awesome?”

Takeru bewilderingly asked Then, a curling girl forced her way in

She had a curved 《False Sword》 that resembles a Saber attached to her waist

“You’re truly a it is, then I, will tell you I, am called Katja”

To the Katja who has a gentle style, she saw Cosette pouting just like a small animal

“Ahe inside this Academia was already wonderful The entire student body froh school numbers to twenty thousand With an approxioes in every year”

“Isn’t that comparatively, a lot?”

Katja swings her body Her hair gently shakes

“That’s not quite! In this world, every human aspires to be the person that can enter desuno Those who take the aptitude test including children counts up to ninetyof this desu?”

“E-erm…”

“The passing rate is approximately thirty thousand desuwa In other words, each student in the Academia is one in a thirty thousand desuno”

Thirty thousand

…That’s, how much of an elite is that?

Whatever kind of exam it herever university it was, isn’t just not that different from them? That kind of examination is just truly absurd

Takeru spoke ords of honest praise

“You guys truly are elites”

The tiny Cosette nods

“Of course we are But you see, Noel-san is far more elite than a percent that was enrolled here In other words, if we say it by approximation, umm”

“One out of three i Takeru-san You are at least, defeated so in that kind of position On the contrary! You even drove away that Olivia-san of the Blazing Star! In other words, this–”

Katja, just like earlier, continued to speak

There, a girl who had a body with the charm an exotic skin of those who hailed from Lindia stole Katja’s speech(TLN: 褐色 means Tanned Skin or Brown Color and read as Lindia Seriously author It feels like an indirect racism there)

“Takerusaid that, Anju desu~! Nice to meet cha~!” (TLN: Anju shortened よろしく to よろ so I just ith infor)

The Lindia girl na Attached to her back was a sword of an unusual type In contrast to its short but sorip At the end of the huge blade had some brass knuckles attached to it or was it?

Certainly, it looked like a sword that definitely from India Jamadhar was it? (TLN: Jamadhar A specially made katar with two blades that move like scissors to reveal a third blade from within Think of IF from Hyperdimension Neptunia She uses these as her oeapons)

“Ah! Even though I want to say it myself!”

“The faster ones wins dayon You’re being childish for being angry yon That’s so typical of ainst that monster of an opponent, super-nice! Super cool! Like a treht to eat the curry on my country, Lindia!” (TLN: The Oni made i which is the surname of Takeru)

“Lin…dia…? Not India?”

“India? Where’s that? … Anyway, I would gladly make you eat it everyday if you and I do “that”! You know “that” mar—–”

“Wa-ait for a moment! P-p-please be wed to me…!”

Suddenly being told by that, Takeru was agape in surprise

The short girl who had a light brown hair whose cheeks are dyed red, lowered her eyes in embarrassment

That girl spoke in low tone “I’m Ra-Ra-Rachel…”

So she adds The 《False Sword》 in her waist was visible I guess that can be called as Dual Swords?

Interrupting her speech was the Lindia Girl who raised her lips

“That, I was supposed to be the one who say that Good gried Your butt’s curving outward”

The short haired girl ignores the Lindia girl and continued to speak

“A-ah Me saying you to ma-marry me all of a sudden Quite pre-pre-presumptous of me isn’t it…? I-if you’re fine with my body then–”

Takeru was perplexed on hoas unable to understand theof this development He knit his eyebrows

“No, not just your body…I think that it’s not good”

“B-but… Ranada was already absorbed by Neorika… My household too, it has already fallen… In order to revive it, u child…!”

Canada, no, Ranada girl named Rachel embraced her body with her small hands Her cheeks were dyed red as if she’s about to faint

“Ah! Takeru-san No way This person is taking advantage of you… Ah, that kind of request is just… I-is that your et into Yamato? Aah… N-no way, no way I’ll allow it”

Zubishi+! And there, Anju energitically gave Rachel a chop

“Hau”

“This pink brained wench! He’ll choose Lindia instead of Ranada of course! Curries are delicious!”

Anju grabbed one of his hands and said it Katja gracefully trusted it aside

“Leaving that aside, have a smell of Rushi+a, Takeru-san It may be quite cold at times but, it is abundant in natural resources It is quite peaceful too It’ll never give Takeru-san any discomfort at all”

“Si about ht about that at all I’ asked all of a sudden”

“Even if you get yourself in an affair, I’ as your first priority is just m——”

“Things like that is quite impolite towards Takeru-kun you know?”

Cosette says with her innocent voice

“Everyone, your conditions are just too cruel What really is important is, “love” “Love” That’s why, I wish for you to corance ‘kay?”

“Is that the coland and France…!?”

“E-erh You see, in my country, our food delicacies aren’t that delicious but that’s not really the reason However, I will do my best!”

Says Cosette as she softly smiled

“…No Allow me to refuse”

The chiirls from each country have returned to their own seats

“Though the recess is there for student’s break, I did not feel any break at all…”

With such feeling, his first day of school has passed

And then, it was the time to leave the school

Takeru rise up fro to return home, Cosette who’s like a small animal rushes up to him

“Takeru-kun, want to go hoether? I’ll walk you ho—”

“Nope, I’ll go back home by myself”

“I-I’ether”

“Not fa~~~~ir! Me too!”

The students’ attitude towards Takeru after the duel completely became the opposite Takeru felt a bit of headache and held his head It wasn’t really that they sneered at Takeru particularly However even so, their attitude is just too different

—Why did it became like this?

Takeru went to the corridor froirls have followed afterwards

Ast them was the squirrel colored hair Cosette who talked to him earlier She peeked at Takeru’s face and asked him

“Takeru-kun, which dorh the central town? I wonder if you could “play” withthe priuess what the sentence meant)

“I’m sorry but, a person is not called a place”

“Then, how about my villa then? I, have a villa within the territory of Rushi+a inside of shi+nrei Fuyuu Academia”

Katja locks the ar that

He thought that if he unfastened his hand forcibly was bad o on

She pushed her breast against him

He felt it as if it was a soft war pushed on him

Even if this was Takeru’s first ti voice

“O-oh… Even if you say that, allow me to refuse”

“How about this then! If you come with ain Intentionally made the sentence this way)

“……Allow me also to refuse on that”

Rachel, while quietly holding towards the cuffs of Takeru, faintly smiles

This child’s attitude is the most reserved one and makes you feel at ease

“Th-then, will you come to my house? Within in ood…?”

I can’t completely be at ease!

“Rejected!”

“eh… O-outside then…? That’s, that’s just… no way, no way…”

“Why did it reach to that!? Allow me also to refuse that!”

“Since it’s not good on outside Y-you wish for so… B-but… I-if Takeru-san wishes for it, I would… A-ah…”

With such situation, they already left the school building

Upon reaching outside the school building, he caught gliirl by the road

It was Sakuya

It see both of her hands

Sakuya saw Takeru, pleasantly smiled and immediately raised her hand—-

“Take—–”

Upon seeing Takeru crowded by the girls of his class, Sakuya turned into an expressionless Noh Mask in an instant

After that, she floated a chilly smile It was the same smile as before yet why is it scary?

“—-ru JUST what on earth are you DOING?”

“…Sakuya What happened? Your eyes are scary”

“Nothing really It’s the saet that, quite the situation you have Every girl here serving you—— in addition, getting yourself entangled omen on two arms”

“Takeru-san’s arm It’s quite warm I wonder if you’ll embrace me more?”

Sakuya saw the voluptuous chest of Katja Giri As her teeth sounded fro

“Really! Just who is the HAREM KING!? YOU!”

“Ah, no Please don’t shake me violently I should say that I’m also troubled by this”

“Your sloppy face says so otherwise!”

Sakuya’s lips bended into へ Takeru tiredly breathe a sigh

“Perhaps that was just s…”

“I wonder if it really is so?”

At that tiripped Takeru’s hand and ht dropped down to her

” Yo-your arm is unexpectedly, s-sturdy isn’t it…? I-I’ood”

Sakuya opened her eyes and yelled

“H-how dirty! What are you saying all of a sudden!?”

“It’s not! You’re oes, it’s not her problem”

Sakuya quickly gulped and then the look in her eyes became sharp

“A-a-as a eous! So whatever Takeru will do, I, I, I will be worried of course”

To theSakuya, Katja spokes

“Konozuka Sakuya-san Being surrounded by men from different countries, doesn’t thaton your own ht to interrupt our conversation”

“Mis- of the sort!”

“Fufu Talk as much as you want but that’s just prove that you don’t understand a thing”

“What’s with you! Release his hand this instant!”

Sakuya yells as her eyes beco more wet

Just like that, Sakuya re her head dohile her cheeks dyed red

After that, her lips pouted It was a little bit but Takeru saw her spiteful eyes

“Uot… that…?”

What destructive power it had That gesture directly pierced the heart of Takeru

The other day, Noel’s attacks were precise and sharp leaving him no time to evade at all

“N-no……”

Surely he was su about that time

His heart throbs Takeru have no idea what he feels

What… is this…?

No, I already know this feeling long tio

Yet, Why I still can’t coht of what this is?

“That time, Takeru…… su-suddenly, forcibly you see……

I-it was e you see……”

“That, my bad…”

“Even living together with a man That was my first……”

With her speaking「Kyaaaaaaa!」 screams rose

“Living together!? You really do!? No way…! Eeh… Eeeeh………!?”

“So Takeru-san and Sakuya-san was like that… However, I don’t care about it”

“I, I can dance belly dance! I won’t lose! It would give you extre sound And Anju please Stop Right this instant)

“……Mo-ood, not good”

To the girls who started talking as the pleased, Sakuya sent an abated glance

“You guys will never be able to understand However, nothing’s can be done It’s truly wond——-makes me “sick””

Says Sakuya as she draws the red scabbard from her holder

“”””!!””””

To the girls who saw it, they uniformly opened their eyes wide

“To threaten us with a eapon, that’s far too cruel!”

“Right As a person of noble lineage from Rushi+a, I cannot withdraw…”

“My anti-war body’s fully tre dayo!”

“Such long and hard thing—- hat are you ood”

Sakuya’s voice lowered

“…Huh?”

A sword of force was shot out of the scabbard The ground around the place Sakuya stood upon cracked

The said crack extends radially

All of Takeru’s fe

“I planned to go to an art et that…”

“…Ah That’s right I et in touch with my mother in my beloved motherland”

“I-I’onna eat curry now!”

“M- and hard scabbard…… no-not good! Not good!”

They said different kinds of stuff and gradually left running away

“Takeru! You’re being lovestruck with them!”

“Nu-uh Am not I wasn’t”

Sakuya’s cheeks swelled She said in displeasure

“…I told you that I would protect but even so, you still feel so dissatisfied!”

“Nope, nope Not true I’rateful to you”

“……If you say so then”

Says Sakuya as she turns away

Her htly loose

♦♦♦

When all of the feroup came after

They tried to woo her incorrigibly but Sakuya with a disheveled black hair cut their sword in two

Takeru asked after seeing that state

“……Say Sakuya Occasionally, do you feel nervous after being confessed?”

“There’s no way I could”

What a flustered, immediate reply

“Is that so?”

“I hate people who only see e I am the true nature of myself Konozuka Sakuya”

Sakuya replies while showing an angry expression

“Is that so? But, even if little, did nobody ever see you apart from your linea—”
