79 75 Falls from blind spots (front) (1/2)

Another side

It dates back to the time when Jiro was doing his best to fight the knights who were waiting inside the cathedral.

Isn't it noisy out there?

”Oh, by the way, what's happening today at ......?

I don't think so.

A male student who was having a conversation in his dormitory common room notices the commotion outside.

The noise, which you don't usually hear in a quiet cathedral, makes you pause to wonder if he had any special plans.

In your mind, today must have been a perfectly normal day, except for one classmate who is sick in the hospital or something, nothing unusual happened.

Did a high-ranking person suddenly come to check on you?

Oh, but this is headquarters, right?　That's where the big guys are always.

No, you're not from another country.

”It's not going to happen, let's use common sense.

One of the boys says that it's strange that there would be so much commotion if an important person from another country were to come here.

The other boy, on the contrary, thinks that it's strange that the person who said that is so, but then he comes back to the question of what the fuss is all about.

It is natural to leave your seat in the common room and approach the window to take a look.

You go up to the window in the direction of the commotion and look out.

I think I found something on .......

”Oh.

What I saw from there was a flurry of soldiers moving about.

The commander shouted loudly and the soldiers moved around to meet him.

Spears in hand, shields lined up, and wizards lined up behind them.

The bizarre scene, as if to protect the building from something, made it impossible to let it go out of my mind.

Hey, what do you do?

”What do you do with what?

No, like after this.

”Why don't we just gather around where everyone else is?

The unusual scene makes them anxious, and their tone of voice is naturally tense.

The only action the two of them can take is to look for other classmates who have gathered in order to gather information.

If you go downstairs, you can find your classmates who have heard the commotion, so you go downstairs from the second floor common room.

Sasakawa, what's going on? There's a bunch of soldiers outside!

It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what's going on, because it's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what's going on.

I don't know, Manami has been asking you about it, but the soldiers won't open the front door for you to stay indoors because it's too dangerous.

If you listen to your classmate, Sasakawa, and look at the entrance, you'll see Saeki yelling and screaming at the soldiers standing in the doorway to prevent them from opening the door.

Meanwhile, the commotion outside is getting louder and louder.

Didn't you hear an explosion just now?

Yes, it was small, but I think I heard it.

I'm not imagining it. There it is again. Hey, isn't that what they're fighting about?

Who's fighting?

”I don't care!

The sounds of battle, including magical explosions, are played in the ears of the students who have become brave enough to hear them in the distance.

The turmoil caused by it seeps in deeply and persistently.

Until a few months ago, they were just ordinary students.

The reality that the place they thought to be safe, without having gained any real combat experience, may not be safe was a shock to them beyond their imagination.

Locking them up without explaining to them that they are dangerous and should not go out is more of an act of anxiety than a reassurance to the students who do not know the situation.

That's why we're asking for an explanation!　I'm not going to just be told to stay here because it's dangerous!

”We are not authorized to explain by our mouths. The Commander of the Order is working to put things under control. Please wait for me.

It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

It's pretty bad, isn't it, that the Knight Commander is on the move?

It may have been a reassuring explanation from a soldier's point of view.

It is because he is a soldier who knows the competence and personality of the knight commander that he can feel secure and trust his words.

But what would the receiver who digested the information lacking either of them think?

The students know about the knight commander's strength, but they don't know the details of his personality and don't trust him completely.

They don't know how strong he is.

In the information given to them, they think in their hearts: ”That man may be strong.

He may be strong, but isn't the situation in which he operates quite dangerous? And

Hey, man. Shouldn't we help ourselves?

”Baccha!　What are you talking about? This is the kind of guy the Knight Commander would move!　It's not our place!

I know, I'm sorry.

No, I said it too strongly.

Take precautions against danger.

Japanese students are educated so that they can think without stopping to think about what to do now.

At present, what helps them is the knowledge of earthquakes and the knowledge of terrorism that they saw in the news.

However, as students, they have no technical knowledge.

They could only do their best to move quickly to the evacuation center with emergency food and valuables.

The boy's words were only a suggestion of the combat ability he had acquired in the past few months.

But the Japanese mindset is safety first.

That suggestion is immediately rejected.

The situation changes as you think about what to do then.

”Hey, hasn't it gotten louder than before?

”Really?　Isn't it all in your head?

”Yeah, it's definitely getting bigger!

Earlier, all you could hear was a magical explosion, but now a distinct burst of sound began to mix in.

In addition, a sound like shaking the building could also be heard.

The person fighting at the scene saw that Jiro had overtaken Oki and started to fight the knight commander.

The flying blade uses a slash to pierce the ground and cut the building.

It's impossible to fight quietly when you're intercepting magic and fighting with the leader of the order.

The sound is even more disturbing to the students.

Even the boys who insist it's all in their imagination know it's true.

The battle is getting more and more violent.

It would be different if there was a student here who could do justice and organize, but the faculty member who should be organizing it hasn't been seen in over a month.

There is a class committee member, but he doesn't have any charisma and can only handle things according to the manual.

At last, the behavior of the class is about to get stuck.
