Episode 25 "Students' Meeting"

Following Mira's instructions, we immediately went to the student meeting room.

"Hey, Tweet. I wonder what this means."

Elysia walks next door.

"I don't know. But since you asked me to come in this way, it's possible that last night's incident was involved."

I glanced at Gran and Mize's face behind me.

They both seem anxious.

"Hey, Tweet. Shouldn't you tell the student council about the bomb?

"Oh, shut up if you can."

I want you to be as quiet as possible, but if you are not accustomed to interrogation, you may easily see lies in simple behavior. If the student council is seriously suspicious of our behavior, then we will have to give up.

Nevertheless - I don't suppose he's out of shape.

The bomb was dismantled with great care. There are no violent men who are sensitive to human signs and who can sneak through the double vigilance of me and Elisia. Even an Imperial agent would be impossible.

"Here it is."

Make sure the room in front of you is a student meeting room and knock on the door.

After hearing the man's voice, I opened the door.

"Welcome, I've been waiting for you."

The boy student in the back of the room smiled at us.

There are four students in the room. Sherya Nolan, the vice president, leaves the papers on the desk behind, and Housen, the leader of the Lions, looks at us with his arms together.

Please, go inside.

Mira, who was waiting near the door, invited us inside.

The first man to say hello sat before us on a fine leather sofa.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Ix-Dulite. I'm student chairman."

Student chairman, that is, the strongest student in the school.

The first impression is that it's a gentleman with thin lines. The soft, rough grey hair is characteristic, but there are no other characteristics such as this. Somewhere in the world... it seemed like a person with a thin shadow.

But according to what Elisia and the others have told us before, this man is rumored to be the best candidate for school alongside Valen.

I don't want to judge people by their appearance, but if I don't feel this way, it seems like I can do it on the contrary.

"The reason I brought you here was because I wanted to ask you a few questions."

"Question?

Ask back carefully.

Unlike me, who is accustomed to interrogation, and Elisia, who is accustomed to tension, Mise and Gran are more likely to get knocked out when a question is attacked. I took the initiative to accommodate the conversation so that they wouldn't get too close to asking questions.

"Ah... Actually, I recently found a suspicious person around the school. You're staying in school late at night to practice, aren't you? That's why I wanted to ask you if you saw anything suspicious."

After listening to the chairman, Mise and Gran appeared relieved. That kind of attitude could be flawed out... but should I point it out later?

But the answer to that question has already been decided.

All I have to do is be honest.

We found nothing. We were at war two days ago.

"... what?

"I'm sure a guy named Barren from the student council knows about this."

Perhaps the suspect is an agent of the Empire. I met Barren when I was fighting an agent. The student council should know that because the agent's identity was handed over to Valen.

I don't know what my intentions are, but in response to the question, I said, "Are you wearing a sickle? I thought, But it seems very different. The chairman saw wrinkles between his eyebrows, and the other officers around him were confused as if they had heard it for the first time.

"If someone hears that from Valen... it's true... it's not true, right?"

The chairman glances at the faces of the officers, but no one nods.

The chairman exhaled deeply.

"Housen, can you call Valen on the radio?"

Ha!

Hauser, who has been instructed to do so, immediately goes to the broadcast room.

That guy Housen... looks like a soldier.

A few minutes later.

A red-haired man entered the student room without knocking.

"Don't call me on the air. It's obvious."

"You wouldn't normally call me."

Well...

To the chairman who told him with a sigh, Valen returned without a scratch.

Then, Valen's gaze turned towards us.

Hey, we met again.

"... ahh"

Apparently he remembered my face.

Even after school yesterday, I saw Valen walking around, but he wasn't conscious at all.

"Valen, you were summoned precisely by his report.... two nights ago, did you fight someone at school?

"Oh, we fought."

The chairman puts his hand on the forehead for a quick affirmation of Valen.

"... why don't you report it to me?"

"I was going to do it the next time I came here. I mean, now."

The chairman lay face down for a while, holding his forehead down.

"It's always the case that I don't hang out with you guys."

"Things are a little different this time around.... so what happened to the people you defeated?

"I got rid of him properly."

"Hmm... I don't know..."

The chairman looks painful, even if he doesn't say hello.

"- Chairman!!

At that time, Mira shouted angrily.

"Come on, let's get this guy out of the student union! I'm sick and tired of such irresponsible men swinging us around!!

Her face turned bright red and Mira was furious.

In contrast, the chairman listened calmly to her anger.

"Mira, I know how you feel, but I'm in front of a customer right now."

"......! Excuse me...."

Immediately Mira returns to me and bows her head to us.

"If you want to take it off the student council, take it off yourself. I don't mind."

"... unfortunately, I don't think so for now."

"Chi."

Valen spoke plainly.

The chairman rubs the wrinkles between his eyebrows.

"Valen, for the record, did you treat the intruders as mere suspects?

"Oh, what else is there?"

"As a matter of fact, the story has surfaced that the intruder may be an agent of another country. That's why I wanted you to catch me if you could...."

I didn't ask, but I can't handle it.

From what I've heard, Valen is a student council officer, but she's quite uncooperative about student council activities. It's a rumored problematic child.

It certainly hurts to miss out on agents from other countries. But it appears that Valen did not know about the men he took down that night as agents of another country.

"... I couldn't reach you because you didn't come to the student meeting room."

Mira says to Valen with her eyes full of resentment.

"Hey, what happens to students who don't belong to a student council? In fact, the normal students there were fighting without knowing anything about it. Hey?"

Barren looked at me and said.

While the eyes of the officers are on me, I affirm "well." In fact, I was generally aware of the situation, but at least I did not receive an explanation from the university side. Unless my predecessor was special, Valen would have been right.

"If you can't solve the problem just by yourself, you should let the whole school know. It's funnier to handle things in a small room like this."

"... if you do that, the competition festival will be canceled."

Shouldn't we just call it off?

Mira kept quiet when she told Valen that it was obvious. Do you regret being beaten? There are tears on the corner of your eyes.

Seeing Mira like that, the vice president who had been silent opened his mouth.

"... Valen. The Magical Sports Festival at Builders School is an important event, both politically and economically… and above all, for the people to feel peace. We have a duty to keep this as safe as possible in order to embrace a peaceful world after a long war."

"Ha! After all, the great man of the country decided on his own."

That's how Valen looked at the chairman.

"Hey, Ikes. Put your men on the ground, I don't think so."

"... because my men are good, they're telling me what I want to say instead."

Keeping his gaze down, the chairman said.

"Hey, are you going to repeat this again?

Valen's condition changes.

The chairman silently pardoned Valen's angry words.

"Ha! It's as secret as ever. That's how I always lie down for someone else's sake.... that my sister's dead (...) is a secret piece of shit."

"Valentine!!

I wonder if something about the statement was in question.

The vice president, who had remained calm until now, shouted loudly.

Valen stares at the chairman. The vice president stared at Valen. In the student meeting room, a sudden burst of air rises.

I don't know, I don't know.

It was Eritrea's sighing remarks that broke the silence.

"I'd like you to behave a little more exemplarily in a student council."

I'm honestly impressed that Elicia is strong at times like this...

The word was cut off and the dangerous air dispersed.

"... I'm sorry. That's all I need to know, so go home today."

The chairman lowers his head. We stood up silently and left the room.

Just before closing the door, I heard Valen's voice.

"We held a magic competition festival and established a general school. It's all a push for peace.... don't think anyone will accept it."

The angry words of Valen were not going to disappear from my memory for a while.
