Teacher's Comment:
Two people being so close yet so far, ill be the final outcome?
After lunch break, we have a group of people on the frontlines so that we don’t show that we’ve regrouped, while our gang’s gathered with the class at the back
“Yuuji”
I call out to Yuuji, who has his eyes and mouth closed
“…”
No response
“Oi, Yuuji”
“…”
Still no response
“OI, YUUJI!”
“…Nn What is it?”
After calling hiain, Yuuji finally shows a response and opens his eyes
“It’s nothing Lunch break’s over What’re you spacing out for?”
After the strategy y for the afternoon to us, and had been sitting here with his eyes closed
“It’s already this late…wait, let hts”
Pak, he slaps his head as he says this It’s that kind of ‘slap a sleepy head awake’ act
“Then, okay”
Then, Yuuji lifts his head and shows his usual expression He has completely woken up
“Sorry I’ after lunch”
Hahaha, Yuuji laughs as he shows his bold side
Huy will sleep in the midst of this important battle
I ponder as I look over at Yuuji, but Yuuji suddenly looks at me
“What, Akihisa? Why’re you staring at , isn’t it?”
It’s rare for me to worry about what’s with that attitude of yours
“If you have tio into Zen hts out?”
“What Zen, you just fell asleep”
“It’s the sa to me”
Speaking of which, these ht be the same to be too
“Let’s not talk about this now Tiinal directive We’ll lose if we keep focusing on e did just now It’s hts and act like usual”
Muu…that truly is reasonable The afternoon battle seeht be better if I don’t think about anything else and act like usual
“And in such battles, on’t be able to show our usual abilities If you have the tiht as well focus on showing your abilities”
Yuuji says it with his usual expression
Since that guy has already thought of things to this extent, I’ll follow suit as well…besides, even if I say anything to hi too much’
Just e’re talking to each other, Hideyoshi+ and Muttsurini arrives
“Oh, you’re awake, Yuuji”
“…Is it time to attack?”
“No We’ll move a little later B class will open a path between 3-E and 3-B, and we’ll charge in through there”
If we attack so suddenly after lunch break, our opponents may become more wary, so it’s best for us to sit back for a while before taking action
“I’ll give the instructions at that ti”
“““Got it”””
We nod in response to Yuuji’s words
Then, let’s just follow the instructions and rando
10 minutes passed
“Holding theain? Goodness…”
“So and holding off”
“We’re sent to these boring places because we’re the worst class”
“Stop yapping This is important for our victory”
Yuuji calls out to pacify the unhappy voices of those in standby Whether it’s gla a lot of attention…in the wrong way
“Mu…B class’ about to take action too”
And right at the moment when Hideyoshi+ says so, there are shouts from the front,
“““Summon!”””
I hear them call out their summoned beasts The real afternoon battle’s about to heat up
“Still a no go, Yuuji?”
“Nope Let’s wait for B class to open a path for us”
The plan is basically B class opening a path with their high scores, our side will hold off 3-B, and at this moment, B class will team up with the other second year students and defeat the ene people fro Everyone wants to take part in the eye-catching annihilation battle, so I can understand why they’re unhappy
“And…well, I guess this is the first tiht?”
“Now that you mention it, that’s true”
Our F class’ about to take action, but it certainly is refreshi+ng for us to remain on standby in the classrooht
“We’ve been taking part in the su wars here”
“…That’s true”
In ter war experience, on’t lose to anyone Maybe we have ht much either
“I guess we ht be reliable to the other classes since we’ve always been in the wars”
“That ht be the case”
“It certainly feels as cool as being called some special ops, like a SWAT team or sorts”
“Ahaha There’s no way they’ll call us that”
While everyone’s laughing away, Muttsurini walks to us and says,
“…Calling us that”
“Eh?”
“…F class is called that because we’re often in the wars”
“Really!?”
“…(nods)”
Wow, I’s like SEALs, SAT, or maybe SAS?
“…Barbarians”
“““…”””
For soe difference compared to what I hope we’re called…
“Well, this is to be expected We’re the only ones a ith everyone”
“Now that you mention it, that’s true…”
It’d be good if it were a little cooler…
“Everyone’s being so relaxed even at this moment You’re very reliable”
Himeji-san, who heard our conversation fro to others, I guess this conversation ht not be as useless as we think, just like what Yuuji said
“Oi, you guys, chit-chat’s over Let’s go”
At that ive the instruction
Right, tiin the afternoon battle
“Listen up! We’re going to charge to where our allies in 2-B are at, but don’t interfere with their battle against 3-E! Let 2-B handle those guys, got it!”
“““Ohh!”””
”Hih from the front! If you see any 2-B’s eneo!”
“Ye-yes!”
“““OHHHHH!!!”””
As as said just now, Yuuji and Himeji-san leave our standby area Once we reach the frontlines, we see the battle beween 2-B and 3-E
“It’s not an overwhel win because of the difference in experience, but at least our side’s obviously in the advantage”
Hideyoshi+ looks around and whispers,
It looks like 2-B is really pushi+ng back 3-E, and 3-E’s formation is divided into half In that case, their mission will be done
At this moment
“They’re here! It’s 3-B!”
Someone’s voice came from behind
3-B too came out to act in order to help the suppressed 3-E
“You guys! Those are our opponents! Ignore 3-E and continue on!”
Yuuji gives the instructions If the path leading to the 3rd level can’t be used, it’s to be expected that 3-B will appear here
We ignore the battle between 2-B and 3-E, and proceed to face 3-B on the courtyard If we can buy time here, 2-B’s victory will immediately turn the situation in our favor We h no matter what!
“““Summon!”””
Voices calling out their suht, in that case, I—
“Wait Akihisa, don’t go first”
“Eh? Why?”
“3-B only sent in a part of their forces, and 3-A reinforcementsto deal with the attacks from the side”
“Really? Got it”
Though we spent all our efforts dividing the enemy forces into two sides, it’ll be a battle of endurance after that, so we can’t go all out at once afterwards Looks like I’s
“It’s tough e have 3-B as our opponents, but we can still handle such nu opponents”
Yuuji says as he sees our F class guys fight against the 3-B upperclassmen
“Sempai, your shoelaces are untied—AN OPENING!”
“YOU WANNA BEAT ME!? YOU REALLY WANNA!? I’LL TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THAT!”
“If you beat es and curses at your ears until you graduate…”
I’ll just close my eyes at how unscrupulous our tactics all These are skills we trained ourselves in to survive
Whatever the case, there’re no problems up till now
“We’ve more people here! Send h!”
Yuuji sends souys withwars respond to that instruction and form several human walls
A over to help
And then, there’re other people co over from there
“Sakamoto! 3-A’s here, but there’re a few of them!”
“Go, Akihisa! Hideyoshi+ and Sugawa are to help too!”
“““Got it!”””
I go along with Hideyoshi+ and Sugawa-kun to where 3-A is
There’re 5 opponents, but we don’t have enough space for a fight against everyone If we fight the on
“““Summon!!”””
Both sides take over the ones that had been battling We have 3 on our side, and the opponent has 3 6 summoned beasts in total appears before us
3-A, Koe, 456 Points
Vs
2-F, Yoshi+ Akihisa, Language, 152 Points
3-A, Moriya Kana, Language, 484 Points
Vs
2-F, Kinoshi+ta Hideyoshi+, Language, 212 Points
3-A, Tada Nanaka, Language, 446 Points
Vs
2-F, Sugawa Ryo, Language, 124 Points
Because this sue’ and ‘Classics’ are her than usual simply because it’s a combination of 2 subjects
“Duel!”
Our summoned beasts rush towards our eneently, and I naturally back away to avoid the attack It’s obvious that he never used strength in this attack, but the difference in points is too great That’s why I didn’t intend to take on this hit directly, but decide to dodge
“Yoshi+ Akihisa…so it’s this guy…?”
The 3rd year opponentuess that’s because of the su tournament It certainly feels nice to be feared by the opponent
“Will the idiocy infect uy before the exam…?”
I take back those words This feeling really feels unpleasant
“WHO’S THE IDIOT!? THOSE WHO THINK THAT SUCH THINGS CAN SPREAD ARE MORE—”
“COME ON! YOU’LL BE INFECTED BY IDIOCY IF YOU APPROACH US! IF YOU DON’T WANT TO FAIL IN YOUR EXAMS, YOU BETTER NOT APPROACH US!”
Sugawa-kun yells beside us Is it really necessary for us weak guys to go to this extent just to survive…?
“Akihisa! We can’t survive on pride! It’s best to y!”
“Ugh…! I got it!”
Guess there’s no choice Let’s pretend to be idiots to maintain our scores!
“I say, se—”
“NO! DON’T TALK TO US, YOU IDIOT!”
“NOOO! THE IDIOCY’S GOING TO INFECT US!”
“DON’T APPROACH US!”
“Nice going Akihisa! That’s how it is!”
