Vol 8 Chapter 2 (2/2)

C class was aiical consideration They couldn’t fight it out to decide the winner the last tiht B class I can understand that

“But is that really good? I remember B class’s Nemoto-kun…should be Koyama-san’s boy—”

“I’ll kill you if you dare continue”

It seeettable past

“I like suys who’ll only study”

“That’s right That Nemoto’s just a despicable scum”

“To achieve victory, it’s rather effective to use all sorts of despicable tactics, isn’t it? I kinda like it…but I had enough of that guy”

Koyauys I guess everyone thinks differently…

“I’ll be later than others when playing janken”

“What are you saying!? Don’t you always lose even when you showed up late? You’re not despicable Unlike me, I’ll pretend to have a tummy-ache every time it’s my turn to sweep the floor!”

“Nonono, I’m the real despicable person”

“There’s no such thing I’m the really despicable one here”

“…Actually, I have a cousin of the sa, and he introduced his classmates to me”

““YOU damnED bastard! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!””

“…But I reuys’ school”

“…I’ll give you this can of juice”

“…I’ll treat you to takoyaki e go home”

“…Thanks guys…”

Our nearby classuys were really too understanding

“I see, so Koyauys”

“That’s right, Hiuys Fufu~”

Koyaful smile

“In that case…Sakaht?”

“““…(Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh)!”””

“Oi, you guys! Don’t stab those penknives into the tatami mat That’s really uncomfortable, you know!”

A few of our classmates far away stabbed the tatami mats beside them with the penknives If they were a little h wouldn’t just be tatami mats, but Yuuji’s body

“Speaking of which…really? One, teeks after the ban’s lifted…I see…”

Koyaful tone, and Yuuji looked surprised as he stared at her

“Thanks for sharing this with me It seemed that our aim was different Let’s do our best e start the battles, then”

Leaving this sentence behind, Koyama-san folded her arms, turned around and left F class’ classroo C class in the next su battle, there was one less enemy we had to be wary of

“Looks like the other classes are already testing each other out and preparing for the su war”

“It’s been a while ever since apped classrooed, it’s not really that surprising, isn’t it?”

The last time, it seemed that only F class took the initiative However, the su war that will soon start see the 2nd years Will that be good or bad for us…

“Ah, speaking of su battles, didn’t I hear that the sued? What will they be like now?”

Beside ht, how do our summoned beasts look like now?

“Change in equipment…we have to check it out so that we can control the su battle well”

“…It seems that the system’s repaired”

“Noe can suht?”

“I guess Do you want to try it out? Who’s going to get the teacher—”

Anye have to get permission from a teacher before we can summon our summoned beasts

Perhaps it was perfect ti asour homeroom teacher, nicknamed Ironman—Nishi+mura-sensei walk over from the corridor…

“It can’t be helped then…”

“Yeah, lunch break’s about to end soon”

“Then…Nishi+mura-sensei!”

“Hm? Yoshi+, Sakamoto, what’s the matter?”

Once I called out, Ironman walked into the classroom He frowned in an irritated manner That attitude was basically ‘there’ll be trouble once we talk to him’ How rude!

“Sorry, can you please ‘nope’ allow us to ‘no way’ suive up’ so the new summoned beasts ‘don’t force me’…oi, how , and you refused me six times before I even finished This is the first ti!”

“It’s because you brats never listen to ht?”

No, I think that was co to me…

“I mentioned it before that your suht?”

“Even though you did say so…”

My summoned beast’s different from others, one that can touch other physical objects As I have a special summoned beast that can touch other objects and has several tith of an ordinary person, it’s no wonder that Ironman would be so worried However—

“Sensei, don’t worry about it Have we deliberately caused trouble up till now?”

“I remember you two had to write ht?”

“Let me see…that’s about 1 every day”

“That’s enough to make a book…”

“How many have you tritten anyway…?”

Yuuji definitely wrote 99 of them!

“Besides, if you would call oing to coain?”

Ironman stared at Yuuji and me with a suspicious look What the heck, so we called hily

That’s sie the e call him

“Please, Sou-kun~ (PAKK!)”

“Thousand please, Souichi~ (BEKK!)”

“WHO ASKED YOU TO CALL SENSEI BY HIS NAME NAME DIRECTLY!?”

““MY HAAANNNDDD!!!””

As we just said that, our arms that were reached out were twisted by a powerful pliers-like force If we can’t call him that, what’s next?

As ere clutching our right hands and rolling on the floor in pain, Himeji-san and Minami went in front of Ironman

“You can’t allow us, Nishi+mura-sensei? It’s not like I and everyone else want to do so bad We just want to call out our sue in equipment”

“Minaht We won’t summon our summoned beasts for pranks”

“No…but…”

““Please, Nishi+mura-sensei””

“Haa…it’s not like I don’t understand how you feel about wanting to check out your new equipment”

As the two model students in our class pleaded earnestly, Iron

Alright, now, once more!

“Please, Tetsun (PAKK)☆”[1]

“We’ll leave it to you then, Te-chan (BEKK) ♪”[2]

Now our left hands, which were fine, were twisted dauy!?

“You two, really…okay, make it quick”

“Eh? What quick?”

“I’m busy here Just summon if you want to Really…”

Ironreed in the end

“And besides, no matter how I refuse, you’ll use Sakaht as well let you take action under my watch, and I’ll…feel more at ease”

I see, so there’s such a reason But in that case…

“If you think that way, shouldn’t you have just allowed us to su?”

“Yeah, and ot twisted That was really quite the loss”

“If I gave you peret ahead of yourselves”

Of course on’t…ah, maybe

“Never ot permission”

“Yeah, we got anted in the end”

“…(Nods head)”

“I’ forward to it I don’t kno our summoned beasts would look”

“I’ll just pray that it’s not a concrete wall like the last time…”

“Then lets summon and see, ready—”

“““SUMMON!”””

Our gang shouted out Soon, patterned array appeared around our feet, and the summoned beasts that were shaped off everyone’s looks appeared

“Wow…nice ar”

“A lance and arreat that I’reat!”

“Oi, Yuuji, look at on woven”

“Look, Akihisa, er”[3]

“A longsword and a coat…so I beca”

“…I got improved to a jonin”

Unn, I see So everyone’s equipment became better

““JUST WAIT A SECOND, damn IT!!””

“What now, Yoshi+, Sakamoto? You’re really noisy”

“OF COURSE WE HAVE TO COMPLAIN! THIS IS OBVIOUSLY UNFAIR!”

“Really?”

“Yeah! Just look at the changes on Himeji-san!”

“Eh, er and larger”

“Minami?”

“My arht’s uniform, and my spear became a lance”

“Then Hideyoshi+?”

“My Naginata warrior becaumi member”

“Muttsurini!”

“…I went from a Chonin to a Jonin”

“But Yuuji and I—”

“Only had patterns woven on our school uniforms!”

““THAT IS WAY TOO STRANGE!””

Yuuji and I said that in perfect unison This is way too different from the rest! Why is Yuuji and my equipment almost the same as before!

“No, Akihisa, wait, I’ed too”

“Eh? Really?”

“Yeah My metal knuckles became a bat”

“THAT’S NOT MUCH DIFFERENT!”

It looks like no iven the equip?

“Alright, you should be happy now, right? I’ to revoke the permission”

Once Iron field disappeared, and at the same time, our summoned beasts disappeared GUUUUUU…! I CAN’T ACCEPT THIS…!

“Lunch break’s almost over Don’t play around and prepare for the next lesson”

Leaving those words behind, Ironman left the classroom

“Aki and Sakarown up at all”

“shi+mada, don’t associate me with that idiot It’s too disrespectful”

“Yeah, Minami My brain’s different frorow—(CRACK)”

“What did you just say?”

“I didn’t say anything”

“Akihisa really hasn't grown up at all…”

I held my hands that were twisted to the limit and endured the sharp pain that came from the joint as I continued the afternoon lessons

Time flew, and it was already after school

“It’s been a while since things were quiet Let’s just look forward to the upco days of school dismissal”

Carrying the school bag that wasn’t really heavy, Yuuji walked beside me and muttered

“Because we had to stay behind for after-school supplementary lessons recently”

The school’s nature allowed for more supplementary lessons for classes that werebattles We had to take lessons, and also had to take exams to replenish our points

“It’s because you guys always skipped lessons that you ended up having more supplementary lessons than the rest”

I had no idea about what Mina about at all

“…We should be grateful that we can look forward to school dismissal in such a free manner”

“Speaking of which, it’s like our free time was extended It really feels like we earned it”

Muttsurini and Hily happy manner On a side note, Hideyoshi+ went for his dra part in club activities, so there’s not o back with everyone

“It’s rare for us to leave school early Why don’t alk somewhere?”

Yuuji raised this usual plan as we never had a planned schedule

Nor out with him, but…

“Forget about today I need to go to the superredients”

“You’re going shopping? I thought there was a lot of that seafood you won”

“There is a lot, but I want to cook s and meat will be cheaper on Monday”

In fact, as there were 3 people at home, the seafood as almost finished It’s okay if nee-san and I were at ho atAs we had been eating seafood for the past few days, I wanted to try a meat dish

“Really? I’ll have meat today too”

Yuuji’s in charge of cooking today too (In his situation, it should be ‘again’)? He see as he said this

“Oh yeah What do you intend to cook tonight?”

“Hm…about that…”

That’s really troublesoh I said that I wanted to cook s that I want to cook…and every ht!

“Hiht?”

“Eh? Me?”

I turned around and asked Hiuest of mine, so I’ll like to hear what she wants to eat I’ll have some idea on what to cook

“I don’t really have things I like or hate…but more than that, Akihisa-kun, what do you like to eat? Akihisa-kun cooked yesterday, and it’s my—”

“No no no no no! It’s my job to cook! You really don’t have to worry about this!”

Before Hierous, I hurriedly interrupted her I’ll handle the cooking; no ill I back off from that!

“““…”””

Just when I was discussing dinner with Himeji-san, Yuuji and company looked at us

“Oi, Akihisa”

“What is it, Yuuji?”

“Why are you asking Himeji what she wants for dinner?”

“Eh?”

Now that Yuuji mentioned it, Himeji-san and I subconsciously looked at each other

daht and accidentally blurted out that we’re living together! How could I ot to calm down! Got to find some way to hide this!

“Tha, tha tha tha that’s because of that! Right, Himeji-san?”

“Ye, yes! It’s because…eh, Akihisa-kun just wants to use what I like as reference so that he can prepare dinner tonight It’s not for me to eat!”

“““…”””

After hearing Himeji-san’s explanation, the stares on us had even more doubts and suspicions

“Eh…the…I’ to the supermarket first I’ll make a move first!”

“I, I have so I have to do Sorry, I have to leave!”

Before everyone else could coh they didn’t chase up, the stares onme

“Is, is it alright? We weren’t discovered, right?”

“I, I guess we’re definitely alright We just explained it properly just now”

After turning around the corner, Himeji-san and I looked at each other It’s really hard to hide secrets from others…

“In that case, how about you go ho the stuff”

“No, I should co if I want to buy stuff I've been treated kindly by you, and I would be bothered by it”

“But it’s not good for us to buy ingredients together…”

“How about you leave the shopping to o back to study for tomorrow’s lessons…”

“Alright, let’s go shop then! What should we have for dinner tonight?”

“Ah, Akihisa-kun, wait for me!”

Asking Himeji-san to cook, and for me to study…wouldn’t that be the worst case scenario? There’ll be no problems if it was the complete opposite…

“Akihisa-kun, I heard that eggplants are going at a special price today?”

As I carried the basket into the superetable area near the entrance

“Eggplantthat's good Do you eat eggplants, Himeji-san?”

“Yes, I like eggplants the most!”

Himeji-san answered with an ever-radiant smile

We're now entering autuplant tastes best If it's a little cheaper, I'd really like to buy it Maybe I should deep-fry and then stew it, or reen peppers and meat slices to stir fry if I want soer soy sauce after frying My ood too…no, we can also steam it with chicken…”

“Sounds good Eggplants have low calories and are really healthy, and since it is autuplants”

“That’s right”

Just e intended to buy so energetically

“OVER HERE, OVER HERE! CHEAP AND HEALTHY STUFF ARE HERE! COME CHECK IT OUT!”

It seemed like I heard this ner?

As Himeji-san and I widened our eyes curiously, the shop attendant continued to shout in front of us

“TODAY’S VEGETABLES ARE VALUE FOR MONEY! ESPECIALLY THIS—”

At thatstopped

The shop attendant’s eyes were staring at the eggplant he was holding in his hand as he tilted his head slightly before shouting again

“ESPECIALLY THIS…how should I call it? Eh…THIS THING THAT LOOKS LIKE A PURPLE BAT! IT’S REALLY DELICIOUS!”

Doesn’t this guy knohat an eggplant is?

“IT’S COMPLETELY RIPE AND FULL OF HONEY! IT’S SWEET AND DELICIOUS!”

What’s with that eggplant? What’s added inside!?

“Ohh, the need couple over there! How do you feel about this…purple thing? Wanna buy some?”

Maybe ere looking too interested as the shop attendant that was hawking soon noticed us damn it This person doesn’t look noret involved with him…

“Call, calling us a need couple…”

Hi as she looked all fluffy, and had no intention of running away

Speaking of which, Hiirls are powerless against words like ‘bride’ or ‘needs’

“Come, look! What do you think of this purple rod, kiddo? It’s cheap and ripe! It’s extremely sweet!”

“Sorry If possible, please don’t give me that ripe and sweet one”

That unnaturally soft and sweet sht?

“No no, kiddo, you don’t have to be so kind with me! This purple rod’s sweet part is the best! This, eh…this has the label ‘local produce’! It has lots of calories, and has nothing to do with nutrition! Also—”

This shop attendant was not even listening to me at all as he continued to mutter rubbish…Himeji-san hadn't recovered yet Looked like I could only continue to stay there…

“…And soood that’s well-loved froetable had been used in the north pole 800 years ago…”

As I stood in front of the shop attendant as continuing to fire off, I sank into deep thought Let ht, is there anything else I need to buy?

“Ah, speaking of which, kiddo…”

There are still napkins, and there’s no problem with the toilet paper and toothbrushes

“I’d like to know the naetable?—”

If I have to say it, it’s the one thing we didn’t have …

“—Toilet cleaner…”

“Oh! I see! Thank you very much!”

“Hm?”

Once I recovered, I found that the shopkeeper was standing in front of?

“I’ll have a bag then Let’s go, Himeji-san”

“Ah, okay, my beloved—no, Akihisa-kun!”

Hi of eggplants, and soon after, left the vegetable section

“WE’RE SELLING TOILET CLEANERS CHEAPLY TO YOU! RIPE AND SWEET TOILET CLEANERS ARE NOW FOR SALE! FOR SWEET STUFF, CHOOSE TOILET CLEANERS!”

The shop attendant just noas shouting behind

“Akihisa-kun, as that shop attendant selling?”

“I don’t know either…”

I heard toilet clean or sweet or so a new product, edible toilet cleaner?

“Oh yes, Akihisa-kun, do you know?”

“Hm? What is it?”

“Do you know the saying ‘don’t let your wives eat eggplants in autumn[4]’…”

“Ah, I think I heard of that before”

The source of this saying should be because aunties feel that ‘it’ll be a waste that the delicious eggplants in autuuess That’s rude

But Hihly for her to ask this Maybe she ondering if she could eat eggplants

“Hi That’s an old generation's way of thinking”

“Tha, that’s right I shouldn’t be thinking about this and work hard to give birth to a healthy and energetic baby!”

Why must you mention a baby? I don’t understand what she meant at all

“Akihisa, I think I have to explain it to you The saying ‘don’t let your wives eat eggplants in autuplants have few seeds, and they feared that the chances of pregnancy would be lowered’, so they would prevent their wives froplants”

“Heh~ I see Yuuji’s really knowledgeable”

“It’s not that I’eable, but that you lack common sense”

Really? I didn’t know that—HEY, HOLD ON A SEC!

“Yu, Yuuji? Why are you here?”

“Sa, Sakamoto-kun! When did you come here?”

“Nothing, I just caredients for dinner…”

Speaking of which, Yuuji did ht too…there are not many super that ould meet here It’s because we just went our separate ways that I e mistake…

“Say it! What’s going on?”

“Wha, what are you saying? Himeji-san and I just happened to ether!”

“That’s right, Saka in the supermarket!”

“Hoho? Really, you two said that you wanted to buy ingredients for dinner together Looks like you have quite the good relationshi+p there”

“That’s not it It’s not like that at all!”

“Speaking of which, it’s too suspicious that you tould enter a super else besides shopping together, right?”

Seeing that Hi uncomfortable because of his words, Yuuji placed his hand under his chin and gave a pondering look

“Yesterday’s dinner, today’s lunch and tonight’s dinner are the saether…and you two caether…”

WAAAAHHHH!! Yuuji’s getting closer to the truth! Got to find soe the topic!

“S, speaking of which! There’s a lot of social news everyday!”

“Yes yes! Like airport strikes, flights terminated and all that stuff!”

“That’s really bad! A lot of people can’t go back to japan if the airport’s under strike!”

Himeji-san and I tried our best to divert the topic to the latest news But after hearing e said, Yuuji frowned harder

“…Airport stop…Hio…are you two…”

Most likely, Yuuji noticed some critical fact as he inadvertently widened his eyes Wha, hat? Does he know about it?

“Oi, Akihisa, answer me honestly! Don’t tell me—”

“Wha, what do you want to say?”

“—You’re staying together with Himeji…!?”

WERE WE DISCOVERED? SO QUICKLY TOO!

“NO, NONONONONO, OF COURSE NOT! HOW COULD SUCH AN IMPOSSIBLE THING HAPPEN!?”

“THATHATHATHATHATHAT’S RIGHT, SAKAMOTO-KUN THAT’S COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE HOW COULD IT HAPPEN! YOU DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT HAPPENING!”

“Yo, you thylike this at this moment!?”

Our denials were lared at Himeji-san and s happened inme…

I predicted the attack ot into defensive position However—

“How did that happen…this is bad! This is really bad! damn it…!”

Yuuji was clutching his head and shaking as he didn’t do anything cruel to e?

“What’s with you, Yuuji?”

“AND YOU DARE ASK ME WHAT’S WRONG!? damn IT…WHAT DID I…WHAT STUPID THINGS DID I SAY!? I REALLY WANT TO WHACK AKIHISA AND ME THIS TIME…”

If you really want to do so, couldn’t you just hit yourself only?

“Ah well, it’s pointless to grumble about it Oi, Akihisa nobody knows that you two are living together, right?”

“Uu, ah, yes I don’t think anyone other than Yuuji knows”

“That’s really the best thing I heard in this misfortune If you find out that this is about to be discovered, hurry up and tell me, and I’ll try to cover up for you”

“Eh…Ah, un, thanks then”

To think that Yuuji would say such things I thought that he would be hollering in anger ‘how can you get so cocky you idiot’ and beat me up

“However, youtogether! You must be extremely careful, understood!?”

“I’ll definitely try my best not to let others know…”

“What’s with those spineless words!? It’s not even to try! Akihisa, listen up! You must, never, ever, let anyone else know about it!”

“Uu…un, I understand”

Yuuji glared at ain

“If other people come to know about it, I’ll beat you down into the path to hell, or else I won’t be able to erase the anger within me!”

What’s going on? Will so happen to Yuuji if the fact that Hiets out?

“Got it, Yuuji I&rsqu
