Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai Chapter 26

Chapter 26 (Mock Battle 2)

For now... I'll first point my sword forward.

"Well thenー"

Instructor Joseph turns his eyes down to the pocket watch in his hand and raises his other hand.

"ーBegin !"

My partner is the glasses female instructor.

I might be a little uncool here, but I have to at least put my whole effort in this.

Besides if I assume trying to look good unskillfully, it may result in a more terrible result, which would be bad.

Concentrateー

I imagine letting myself loose the wildness inside of meー

The wildー... withinー...

Suddenly... my sight becomes...ーred...

*Heartbeat*

...............................

This sensation...somewhereー...

If I'm not wrong, this sensation is similar to the time when I've used the forbidden spellー

*Dokun*

Ghuu...

My body... becomes hot ?

There is... a strange pulse within my bodyーー?

"Ghuuー"

I grasp my sword with both of my hands tightly.

Once again I fix my sword stance.

"Ghuuー"

I want to let it lose.

To release this chain and let it eat everythingー

*Dokun*

"Gahー"

I lower my sword stance.

And then...

I run forward...

"Gaaaaaaaaa !"

I move my sword and swung it against the female instructor.

"ーー"

*Clank-Clank* high-pitched sounds can be heard.

I do it a little more and the sounds of *clank* continue to resound.

................................................

"...H-Huh ?"

When I looked at my hand I was taken aback, the sword is not in my hand...

What... Happened ?

I turn my face to the back.

This atmosphere.

And then, the one who broke this atmosphere isー

"...Pfft, what was that..."

It was Maro.

"Being fired up to the point of yelling, and it ended with just one blow... ? furthermore, he uses the sword plainly... what the heck is that ? you know, I ask you a question but why you only looking at here ? does the super nature child-sama is being accepted to this academy because of his spirit only !? I'm seriously can't believe it, with something like this it makes me want to laugh ! Gahahahaha !"

Should I laugh here ? the other students who being tempted by it begun laughing too.

"..................."

Uwaaahー, seriouslyーー?

And furthermore, to end up as a laughing stock.

Zix-san, Hirgiz-san, Cecil-san, the instructors, and Kyurie-san

Uwaahー... you don't have to get that angry at me !

..................................

It seems like I was too weak and everyone loss for words...

"... Eh ?"

"Ah... about thatー"

"Y-Yes... I'm sorryー b-but..."

Instructor Isabella then looked at me.

"That is... how should I put it... somehow I have a feeling that I should protect myself seriously, or perhaps I should say... huh ? what am I going to say I wonder ? being a sacred tree cadet and furthermore in a mock battle, end up being serious is... err..."

Instructor Joseph responded to her while showing a bitter smile.

"Please pull yourself together, instructor Isabella. since among the five instructors, you're the best after all"

And then instructor Joseph looked at me.

"Kurohiko."

"Your sword art... Have you hold a sword before ?"

"I see... the first time huh ?"

Instructor Joseph then put his hand on the back of his head and shows a difficult face.

"Very well then... You will be put in a special class. it seems the content of your lesson will be slightly different from the others."

Unn, I guess that is much better.

But even with this, I'll still do my best !

Solo special training.

One day, I'll beat you to a plump...

"Instructor Joseph."

A dignified voice can be heard.

The students who laughed direct their face downward as if a child being reprimanded of their mischief.

Her expression is similar to last night... A very cold expression that freezes the atmosphere.

"In the first place, the most important for being a new student in this academy is that one can handle and use holy power(magic power) or not, if a person were to be weak in sword art, then it is not weird."

"C-Cecil-san..."

Cecil-san is approaching to this direction.

"Eh ?"

Cecil-san walk pass me one step.

Just what kind of education did that Maro receive from his father !

"No, wait for a bit..."

Instructor Joseph stick out his hand toward Cecil-san and direct his gaze toward Kyurie-san.

"Kyurie Velstein, you have not get your turn yet..."

Kyurie-san then took a small breath and nodded a little.

"... Yes"

Kyurie-san then walks toward the center of the training facility.

And looked at my own palm.

"........................."

What was that before I wonder... that sensation...

After I feel that sense of liberation, somehow, I feel good... nnn ?

Someone shadow entered my field of vision.

I rise my face.

"Emm. Aira-san, is it ?"

Why are you having such grim expression ?

"... Eh ?"

For now, before she shows an expression as if condemning me, I close my mouth and hang down my head.

"... I'm sorry, I said something weird... I just... about just now, please forget it."

After she said that, Aira-san turn her back and leave.

"... He ?"

W-What ?

Did I do something ?

... seriously, what is going on ?

While I'm having a large question mark in my head, Kyurie-san mock battle has begun.

Kyurie-san goes *fuuh* and shows an expression indicating not interested.

"I gave up..."

"I have no confidence in my sword art too. That's why, please put me in special class too."

But Kyurie-san rebukes her faintly.

"... Have you not heard what I said, instructor ? from the beginning the rule is if I'm not wrong, when someone said "I give up" the match should be stopped ?"

Instructor Joseph shakes his head as if saying "good grief"

When instructor Joseph is about to open his mouthー

"Don't fuck with me... "

The one who cut in is Maro.

"If you really don't have confidence then that's fine, and showing such unsightly appearance like that comical wild boy is also good but, what is this, trying to look good, furthermore, I don't like that attitude of yours, the weak should be weak and try to be more modest."

"........................."

Why is he always try to scorn every single person as if he's not satisfied without doing so ?

At worst I'll have to use the forbidden spell..

"W-What did you say !?"

"Aah ?! Don't make a bluff !!"

It feels like my heart is being grabbed.

Kyurie-san then declares it coldly.

"Against everyone here, I will fight using the sword andー massacre all of you."

Inside the training facility too, it's wrapped with different kind of tense atmosphere from before.

But, the thirst for blood that Kyurie-san gave is...

At the same times, the strange tense atmosphere melts away.

"... Good grief, within lion class there are a lot of lively fellows huh. I'm happy for this"

Instructor Joseph then takes the sword that Kyurie-san let go.

"Now then, all of you must be hungry by now. I guess we should wrap out the rest of the tree people"

................................

Thus the mock battle of the three other students Maro, Aira Horn, Cecil Arclight Begun.
