Chapter 6.7 (2/2)

hose who cannot move by themselves. But let them walk. Let them walk out with their own power!”

Nerkia shouted this at the front gates as he looked behind himself.

“Watch, feel, and walk! This is the path we’ve paved for ourselves!”

-Uooooh!

Nerkia turned back to the front gates, and shouted.

“This is… our victory!”

“This is… our victory!”

“They became really strange, master.”

“Yeah….”

Naruan, who was looking at the students from the library, nodded in agreement.

“But why didn’t you send me out? My body’s begging to fight!”

“I feel like they’d lose all sense of hope if you go out?”

“Hnng… being too strong is a sin as well… in any case, what will you do with them now? I don’t think you’d be able to control them.”

“I’ll just try to persuade them a bit, and if that doesn’t work, you’ll have to go.”

“Hahn, to think you’d send a young girl like me to fight those people… you’re mean.”

“Saying that with an expectant face kind of makes you very unconvincing, you know?”

Naruan sighed as he watched Arcadia.

“So we just have a month left, huh.”

School would start again the next day. Normally, schools would prepare for the Empire’s festival after vacation, but since all three events were taking place at once, they’d probably use all that time teaching.

“No, there’s nothing more to teach them, is there?”

Naruan wondered if he should change his plan, as the students grew much faster than he had expected, but gave up on it.

“Well, all will be settled in ten days.”

This event, which would start with the festival, would continue onto the sports compet.i.tion, then the cultural fest. The first event would take up four days, the second would take up one, and the last event would take up three days. Each event had a single rest day in between each other, meaning that a total of ten days would be spent.

The empire’s festival would be handled by the empire itself, and the sports compet.i.tion, along with the cultural festival, would be handled by the schools.

“Well, winning the cultural festival is pretty much in the bag, at least.”

Naruan was sure of having Yugrasia win in the cultural festival. No matter how strong Arcia was, Yugrasia was sure to win. After all, they had prepared something entirely new!

“Victory… is ours.”
