Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai

"Why don't you join our squad, Crohiko!?

"Hey, hey, come on into our party!

"No, no, let's work with us, Crohiko!

After the surgical class, the lion group students who returned to the classroom received an explanation from instructor Joseph about the sacred ruins.

So, that explanation ended a while ago, and now it's after-school time.

There were not just lion group students around me, but other groups of students as well.

Some of them are probably mixed up with a few upper classmates.

Apparently, the story of the surgical class has spread and has come to hear it.

…………

I remember right after I defeated the first giant.

The giant melted off, completely out of trace -.

Then a while later, I turned my back.

"Yeah... I mean, I did it, okay...?

The students, instructors and uncles of the lions group were not even able to speak.

Everyone seems to be just losing their word about what is happening in front of them.

Also, including Mr. Cecily, Mr. Sieg, Mr. Hilgis, Mr. Ira, Mr. Ma Lu, Mr. Currier… They, too, remained silent, but were much smaller and stuck with surprising colors on their faces.

In the meantime, Mr. Makina smiled and opened his mouth.

"Yeah, you can do it... no, it's more than I expected. Thank you, Krohiko."

Good...

"... hmm?

Mr. Makina approached me, stroking my chest with relief.

What is it?

Somewhere, it's a non-floating look...

"So, Crohiko"

Mr. Makina lurks his voice slightly.

"Yes, sir"

"Can I ask you one thing?

"Doh, go ahead."

"... earlier, the black spear? Though it's about"

"Yes."

"Can I think of that earlier when I found out about that existence?

"Yes, no... Actually, there's another stage ahead of me when I first used the curse - that is, when I used it on the school director, I found out"

So Mr. Makina, hey, and one cough.

Cold sweat on those cheeks? tells.

"... thank you for not trying that first with me"

"Oh, I'm really glad I didn't try to use it then either..."

"Really, I'm glad..."

"... Yep"

"..."

"... Yes"

Often, we shut up.

"Well, that's anyway"

And, Mr. Makina breaks the silence.

"Either way, the demons of the Holy Ruins can't stay on the ground for long, so if we even tie them up with that curse, we'll wait for them to melt and disappear afterwards - if that doesn't seem possible, though I was going to do something about it... I didn't think the curse would have preceded us"

"But me, I know how to handle a curse, but you know very little about what a curse is like..."

"... well, if you're interested, you should ask Clarice. Because she knows more about the curse than I do. If you feel comfortable, visit."

Speaking of Mr. Clarice...... oh, the first time I met the school director, he came down the stairs with a bunch of books and scrolls.

"Okay. Next time I'll find some free time to visit."

"Clarice's been in the library most of the time. Well, it's about her, so if you want to know about the curse, you'll even tell me what you haven't heard. Well..."

Mr. Makina twirls and half-spins his body, walking on the ground toward the cuttlefish and the classroom.

"Ladies and gentlemen, once again, I would like to explain to you why I admitted him - Sagara Crohiko - to this school."

Your uncle, who was so called out, looks at each other.

And Mr. Makina said, on a slightly mean note.

"Well, you've seen where the curse is actually used, and there may be no need to explain it anymore."

Then one of your uncles roared with a stroke of his beard.

"Prohibition, or... hmm, I actually saw it with this eye, so you have to believe it... at least something is different from a known spell, I'm sure"

And my other uncle said.

"From what I've seen, he seems to be using the curse... well, I don't know what the school director would want to get into..."

Mr. Makina crossed the door and stepped inside the classroom.

And he turned to his uncles, and smiled confidently.

"Well, shall we?"

Thus Mr. Makina took his uncles and left the magic class.

And after class, it just so happens that rumors of a 'curse man' spread in the school......

"What do you say, Crohiko, we're in the offensive squad in sophomore year, but we think we can appoint you as deputy squad leader for a year. This is totally unusual."

"Oh, better with your sisters than these tough guys, to Seiseki, Mo, G., Li, huh? Right? What the hell, I think it's fun? Instead, if you put it together, it would be so much fun, I'd let you. Wow?

"Crohiko! We're from the same lion group, aren't we?!? I knew it was important for me to have the same set of bonds!

"No, I thought you weren't free from the start. Yeah, I knew there was no madness in my eyes! So let's party with me! Huh!?"

So, this is why.

…………

Honestly, I didn't expect this much change in treatment.

But now that I've been briefed on the Holy Ruins, I'm also convinced of this situation.

This school has a system called 'Little Sacred Degree'.

Simply put, it's like a student's on-campus grade ranking.

Previously, the same group of female students had questioned the instructor.

What is most important in determining this ranking?

At that time, the instructor replied, 'It is the fruit of the search for the Holy Site'.

The important thing for students in this school is to raise the Little Sacred Throne.

And the most effective way to raise the rank of the Little Sacred is through exploration of the Holy Site, and through attack….

Holy ruins.

A huge labyrinth stretching beneath the Wang capital.

It is not clear when this ruin has existed, he said.

The country is both resourcefully and economically moisturized by crystals that can be picked from the sacred ruins.

It also seems that the Holy Monument is treasured as an excellent training ground to avoid blunting the prospects for the Battle of the Sacred Tree Man.

This sacred site says the closer you get to the sacred tree, the stronger the demon becomes.

On the other hand, they say the quality of crystals they can pick is better and the quantity is higher compared to approaching the Holy Tree.

This means that at the foot of the sacred tree - a place where the sacred ruins part extends directly beneath the castle of St. Renounced is the most dangerous, and where the crystals are of the best quality and have a lot of harvest.

It seems that every day to the underground labyrinth of that castle, the Knights of the Holy Tree offensive squad continues to dive.

Because of this, the holy ruins, which can be reached from the entrance on the premises of this school, are somewhat less difficult.

That moderate difficulty is at an excellent level to train candidates… Teacher Joseph said so.

"It's about time, why don't we make it a big place and attack the Holy Monument on a group basis!?

A boy student raised his voice in the face that he had just come up with a proposal.

"But the more people you have, the more demons you come by, right? If so, isn't the Great Zone tough?

Other students complain.

"Well, that may be..."

"Once upon a time, I heard that some of the students I followed were in terrible spirits."

"Yeah... I'm talking about 'Fae' being easy to come by when there's a lot of people..."

Fae.

That's what they call the rare demons that appear in the sacred ruins.

Because Fae may have crystals in their bodies, if they can be killed, they may be able to get crystals.

But it's also highly dangerous for that matter, so he doesn't want to meet one way or another.

"But... if Crohiko has the power to defeat the demons of the Fifteenth Hierarchy, can't you afford it? With that curse, you can have it done all together, right?

From what I've heard, the maximum hierarchy of graduates last year is nineteen hierarchies.

So you don't know if you want someone who has the power to defeat the demons of the Fifteenth Hierarchy.

…………

I don't know, I don't.

"Can you use that curse against multiple opponents in the first place? Krohiko, what's going on around there?

That's what they asked me. I...

"I don't know... I don't know, maybe..."

I replied.

…………

In fact, it is possible to use it on multiple opponents.

That information was coming into me when I was fighting the first giant.

But......

I wonder what it is.

What we all want is the power of the curse, not exactly 'crohiko'.

In fact, until I found out I was a curfew, everyone kept me out of interest.

Some students were making it the object of mockery.

That's the curse - in other words, it also looks like he suddenly leopardized his attitude when he found out he had the power to defeat the demons of the Fifteenth Hierarchy.

Hmm.

I know it's not malicious, so I guess it's not that much of a concern either......

Just in the end, this isn't me being awesome.

The curse is just amazing.

So I can't honestly accept this favorable attitude towards me after all.

…………

But this group of lions - and then, of all the people I had contacts with in class, Cecily, Ira, Currier, and then the instructors... they cared about me, even if they didn't know I was a curfew.

So if you use the power of the curse for someone...... I would like to use it for them.

With a sense of grace.

Of course, for Mr. Machina and the Mias.

And...

I see Currier in the next seat doing the return routine - I guess going back to the quarters.

I...

"Ahhh, you guys are so awesome!

I heard Ma Lu.

The gaze of the students gathers in front of the classroom to Ma Lu, surrounded by surroundings.

"And even the upper classmates, Sama, bothered to take your feet...... Damn, that's a tough one! But... no curse? Is that it? Hmm, isn't that just cheating?"

I distort my face to discomfort and Ma Lu points at me.

"What, what? In that creepy hole...... on the chain, spear? That disgusting thing to use, the future saint tree man? Ha, jokes are tough!

Cancer, and Ma Lu kicked his desk.

"In the first place, can't you say that's strength? You're not, are you? All right? We're passing the exam. We're in school. In other words, we come in with the minimum qualification of 'I can handle sacraments'. What's that? Enrollment because a curse can be used? Hey, you can admit it, do that!

Cancer, and Ma Lu kicks his desk even harder.

"Whoa, whoever thinks I'm wrong, come out! Did I say something wrong? Well, you guys got in here hard, didn't you? Yet you're such a jerk... you know, you're fooling me, you guys! There you go, you chicken curse bastard!

In the classroom, it became as if water had been struck.

Nobody talks, nobody moves.

There seems to be no student gathered around me trying to defy Ma Lu even on the surface.

And you're looking at the reaction of those students.

"Shit."

And I tongued that Ma Lu didn't seem to like it.

…………

Well... I think what Ma Lu says makes sense.

As I thought earlier, I do have my doubts as to whether the curse is my strength.

But... I think there's something a little more to say, Hemaru...

Ma, maybe it's not my in-laws I could have told you...

And that was then.

"Hey, wait - Currier!

Ma Lu called Mr. Currier, who was about to leave the classroom.

With this strange sense of urgency, only one person was about to leave the classroom flat, so there was about doing it and everyone's eyes.

The only way out of the classroom is in front of the classroom.

Mr. Currier was just in the process of passing beside the hemp lu who were gathering in front of the classroom.

"... what can I do for you? Just because you're angry doesn't mean you're in trouble for me to mess with you."

Mr Currier said, looking somewhat troublesome.

But I'm not ignoring you. You're serious, Mr. Currier.

And I noticed that Ma Lu's face, which had been frustrating until earlier, was turning into a face that had come up with some wickedness.

"No, no, that's not what I'm saying. Look, Currier, with that scammer starting to get fucked, you're the only one in this group that's finally floating."

"... I don't care"

No, and I hoisted the edge of my mouth, and Ma Lu face-to-face with the surrounding people.

And

"But what about the Holy Site attack? You're not diving alone, are you?

And I told Mr. Currier.

"... I don't know"

Mr. Currier does not appear to have moved, and returns it flat.

"Ha, so what? Do you cry to other groups of students or even to your superior classmates? Using a woman's weapon? You just look good."

"... Whatever I do, it won't be what you know"

"Damn, you have to be strong. But I think I'm pretty good about you, Currier. This is the woman who ate me in combat class. I don't hate powerful women."

…………

"Oh, he said he didn't have to tell me. You're just not good with people, are you? So, you miss me on the inside, huh? Look, I don't know. Because there's always an atmosphere out there for you. Even today, on your way out of the classroom, in your heart, you were expecting someone to speak up, weren't you?

"I don't know what you're mistaken about, but that's all I'm telling you... you better stay out of this for me"

"So I said, 'You shouldn't get involved,' and I said, 'OK ~' in my heart! No, as you can see, you could be pretty cute, you! Hey you guys!?

Hemp Lu smiles with a teared smile and laughs at the wind ridiculed by his surroundings.

…………

I slowly pulled the chair.

"Fine, Currier! Why don't you join our squad? We'll all work out and adore you forever! Hey, you guys!? That's all right!?

The surrounding people replied with a low laugh, ooh, and a low voice.

And as he licked it around, he began to crawl his gaze into Mr. Currier's body.

Some of them used dirty words to stand up.

I could see Mr. Cecily walking down the steps.

I was standing up reflexively, too.

I'm gonna punch you, that guy.

And he pushed the students around him, trying to make his way to Mr. Currier - that was then.

"Damn...... ah? Oh, my God..."

So Mr. Cecily's movements and mine stopped.

What happened.

Currier grabbed Mariju's neck with his hands when he moved at an unexpected speed.

Za, and the surroundings of Ma Lu set themselves up.

Mr. Currier said.

"Sure, Fiburg or something... I think what the congratulations guys said earlier, but you're the real, congratulatory guy"

"Gu... haha, let... and, hey, I... who... I know..."

"Hum... that's more of a dialogue here."

"... ah? Heh..."

"I'll tell you one good thing. If you're going to catch on to someone, you better be able to measure their strength. Its poor conjecture and dullness will reduce life expectancy"

"Heh, heh... meh... guh..."

"Hi, I don't seem to have enough imagination, so I'll tell you clearly."

Mr. Currier let go of his hand.

Then, Ma Lu pounded his knee on the floor, holding his throat, and coughed up, ho, ho, ho.

Then, with a distressed look, Ma Lu looks up at Mr. Currier.

Looking down at Ma Lu, Mr. Currier told him.

I'm from the Sixth House.
