#6 Their story: a certain student council presidents story

Are they not even letting us go home normally

Well, we expected this.

But since the number of teachers are half what they normally are, at least well be able to go home.

Were probably the weird ones for feeling confident with that, right?

We all sighed as we stood up.

Well, Lady Aris will clean up the third floor and below well on her own.

Regardless of the fact that Yugrasia was constructed knowing that summoned beasts would pass through its corridors, there is only limited space in the hallways.

Because of that, even if the number of teachers has been reduced, the number of teachers that well actually fight are probably similar to before.

Although one advantage is that there wont be another teacher immediately coming in as soon as we defeat one.

Moreover, the fact that the god-class elementalist Professor Harian also returned to the elven forest is also a significant boost for us.

If the god-class summoners and the student council all charge while relatively fresh, not even Professor Muam could hope to stop us all.

Right, as we planned!

To go home!

And while we all fought and cleared the seventh floor, and were fighting on the sixth.

At a time approximated to be around 1PM, the apocalypse came.

-For the students who have not yet left school, we will now be entering the special holiday plan for fast exit.

What bullshit is that?

Everyone on the sixth floor agreed heartily with Risens words.

We went to school even though we didnt want to.

We went to school even though it was the holidays! Does he actually not know how much we want to go home?

Were doing our best to leave school, and the one thats stopping us is the school?

But a special plan for students who havent left school yet!

Step. Step.

But at the footsteps of someone coming down from the seventh floor, where we had just come down from ourselves, our rage instantly evaporated.

Ahh ahhhh..

Step. Step.

It began with the despairing gasps of the student that was standing at the rearmost end.

And the moment that the students that heard it turned back, that thing smiled brightly and said.

Weve got sum bad kids who havent gone home yet?

Bang!

She tilted her head slightly, with an appearance that a stranger might find cute.

But for us it was a smile of fear and despair, and with that the silver devil kicked off the stairs and charged in.

Ru, run away!

Kyaahhgh!

Uheehiit! Finally, finawy Aru time! Ive been waiting for dis!

Guaahhgh!

In this situation where chaos, fear, screams and tushitushis ran rampant.

Run!

Risen, the first person who realised the situation, summoned Lokis shoes and started running away at lightspeed.

Run!

Oho, you think well kuk?!

Even though wed been struggling against them mere seconds ago, but perhaps it was because the harbinger of death was approaching?

One student surpassed perceptible speeds to knock the teacher out and started running.

Help meee!

Leave him, leave him! All units only focus on pushing forward!

Use all the strength you have except what you need to run!

Kuwaahh! Sa, save me, Pres!

Sorry, buy us time on the stairs!

Abandon the ones that fell to the trap stairs and keep going!

Was it because of the chaos, there were a large number of casualties that were caught on the staircases traps that few people normally fell to.

No, to the point that I thought it would be a relief if the silver devil took longer to get down while she was dealing with them.

But unlike before, the silver devils goal was not to enjoy herself in hitting us.

Uwheeheehiit! My goal is to beat all ya kids!

Just one hit. Sometimes the more resilient ones would take two.

The speed of the silver devil that was coming down while only hitting enough to knock people out was straight up insane!

Because the students fell unconscious after so much as getting grazed by her, since we still had to fight the teachers on our way down, one student, then another were sacrificed to the silver devil.

But, but!

Its the second floor!

And as expected, or should we say thankfully.

Because the third floor was already clear, we could run without suffering any more casualties.

And as we ran down to the second floor, we saw Lady Aris fighting Professor Aruhan in front of us.

Kwuuuuuhhhht!

Dammit, she caught up again!

But the silver devil caught our backs at the same time!

RUUUUUUUUUNNNNN!

Explanations?

Aint nobody got time for that.

We dont even have room to breathe properly, explanations my ass!

Heeheehiit, you kids still havent left school yet, bad children!

And as if she read my intentions, or heard the devil behind our backs.

Lady Ariss face blanched as she weaved her way through Professors Aruhans strikes with movements that could be described as miraculous.

What. what kind of holiday is thisss!!!

The silver devil is coming.

But at Risens words I automatically bolted upright.

N, no!

Risen smirked as he looked at me immediately summon a high-ranked elemental and look around my surroundings, and said.

See, he woke up, right?

And when I looked around, I could see the other students.

How?

And the majority of them were lying on the ground.

A few of the students that had already woken up were moving around waking the others.

And the place we were at was none other than

Why were we sleeping in the auditorium?

Indeed.

In that very auditorium where we swore to become victorious in the imperial festival not long ago.

The majority of the students were out cold lying on the ground!

Because we were hit of course.

Kuugh

At Risens words, I slowly began to recall things like an amnesiac whose memories were returning.

-Kuwuuughhh!

-No, save me!

-Heeheehiit, since youre the last kids, unnill play with ya more!

-Stop, stop!

-Kuk! Please, no more

Urgghh

And what I remembered were things Id much rather forget.

The moments where nothing but pain existed began to stir around in my brain once again.

Oh, and Pres. This is pretty important.

And looking at me, Risen had an extremely rare self-mocking smile on his face as he told me the catastrophic truth.

Right now, its 6PM.

What?

Its six in the afternoon.

What the hell was this? 6PM? That cant be?

I understand how much you want to deny reality.

This, this cant be!

What had I done?

All I did was get hit by the silver devil and wake up, so what kind of bullshit are you saying when youre telling me that five whole hours have passed!

Lies!

Even as I staggered I forced strength into my legs as I opened the auditoriums doors.

What I saw, was the slowly but surely setting sun.

Perhaps because it was summer, the sun was still in the sky but it was definitely setting lower and lower.

You mean.. You mean it seriously 6 oclock?

Maybe if it was just one person.

If it was one classroom I could stand it.

If it was an entire year level I could think as long as its not me!

But, but!

He made the entire school stay at school til 6PM!

Even on a normal day, the majority of the other academies would have already closed already!

And worse, this was the first day of the holidays!

Fwump.

This, this cant be.

My two knees dropped to the floor in despair.

As my arms barely held by body off the ground, hunched over as if it couldnt take it anymore, I began to cry out the resentment inside my heart.

Damn it. Daaaaaaaaaaamnnnnnn iiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttt!

Its the holidays! The freaking holidays!

And its six in the afternoon!

And this will be part of our daily lives from now on!

Why, just why did this pain have to come in our final year!

But then someone began to pat my shoulder.

M, milady?

If it wasnt Risen, I thought another member of the student council would be the one to be patting my shoulder.

But against my expectations, the one who was patting my shoulder was Lady Aris.

And with a benevolent smile, Lady Aris said to me.

Sunbae(1), you graduate this year.

Ah

At that moment, I realised just what mistake I had made.

That expression, was not a benevolent smile. It was the smile of one who had forsaken everything, a saintess who had achieved enlightenment!

But, this is my first year.

As I saw that smile, I felt my knees rise by themselves.

Its true. I am a fourth year.

But, at this academy there are still third years that still have a year left, and second years that have two.

And.

I still have three more years to goooooooooooo!

The fact that the ones that should be despairing isnt me, but the first years that have three more years left in this academy!

What have I done wrong!

For Lady Aris, who was howling sorrowfully in a manner unbefitting for a daughter of a marquis.

I could do naught but watch over her.
