The scene rewinds a bit.
Yorha, alone, heads to the Student Council Room and places a few documents on Student Council President Esterize’s desk.
Esterize grabs them, looks at them. . . . . .raising an eyebrow in surprise.
Then, she looks at Yorha.
ㅤ
“Princess. What is the meaning of this?”
“Exactly as it appears. It’s about the mock battle between the S-class Summoner and the Student Council.”
“. . . . . .This states a four against one, three against one, and another three against one setup. And the prince will also participate?”
“I tried to stop him. . . . . .but sigh, Onii-sama apparently wants to fight for you.”
“. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Esterize sighed deeply.
Yorha didn’t miss that.
ㅤ
“Huh? You didn’t like it? I heard there’s a nice atmosphere between you and Onii-sama, but seems I was wrong.”
“. . . . . .That’s not the case. I just didn’t expect the prince to participate in such an event.”
“Hahaha. Well, why not? Onii-sama seems to really like you, Esterize. Maybe he’s trying to show off and earn some points?”
“. . . . . .”
“Besides, isn’t your real concern elsewhere?”
“Yes. . . . . .three against ten, right?”
“Correct. Honestly, given the skill gap, one against ten would suffice. . . . . .but that might bore the journalists.”
“. . . . . .And if we lose?”
“Yes, you will.♪”
ㅤ
Yorha confidently declared.
Esterize found Yorha disagreeable. She even showed hostility.
As Yorha was about to leave, she turned to Esterize and said:
ㅤ
“By the way, feel free to harbor any resentment towards the S-class Summoner, but you can’t win against them.”
“. . . . . .And why would that be?”
ㅤ
Without any emotion, Yorha spoke.
ㅤ
“Because, what have you achieved so far?”
“. . . . . .”
“The S-class Summoner has already defeated three demons. Their strength is evident just from that. But what has the Student Council done so far? Just defeated some demon beasts?”
“. . . . . .”
“Well, let’s use this opportunity. Let’s prove to the nation that the A-class Summoner is a stepping stone to the S-class. My hope is for the S-class Summoner to become the strongest force in this country, and a goal for future generations.”
“Despite being an A-class Summoner yourself, you acknowledge the S-class?”
“Of course, why not? And for your information, I’m not an advocate for class supremacy. I don’t really care about A or S.”
“. . . . . .”
“Anyway, it would be a problem if you fight in a sulky manner. If the Student Council defeats the S-class, I’ll grant any wish of yours. Farewell.”
ㅤ
With that, Yorha exited the room.
Esterize, left behind, clenched the mock battle details that Yorha had left.
ㅤ
◇◇◇◇◇◇
ㅤ
Esterize gathered the Student Council officers and checked the guidelines with Oswald and Sanbart.
Sanbart sighed.
ㅤ
“Yorha, when did you come up with something like this? Seriously.”
ㅤ
Sanbart didn’t know that his sister Yorha had approved a mock battle plan.
He had said he would fight for Esterize, but he never expected his own sister to take such action. Sanbart chuckled bitterly.
ㅤ
“Well, it’s fine. Esterize, I’ll fight too.”
“. . . . . .Thank you.”
ㅤ
It was clear from this alone.
Sanbart is incompetent, not even grasping his sister’s moves.
However, he can be relied upon for his combat skills.
Esterize told the Student Council officers and Oswald.
ㅤ
“According to the guidelines, we will fight with ten members of the Student Council and three from the S-class. Our opponents are all of the 『Parasitic type』. But. . . . . .I don’t think you all, who have been training since entering this academy, will lose. Moreover, we have Prince Sanbart, Teacher Oswald, and myself. . . . . .We won’t lose.”
ㅤ
Esterize is already overconfident in her abilities.
But no one points it out.
ㅤ
“The location is the B-class training ground. Teacher Grey of the 『tower』 will ensure the venue’s safety, and Doctor Ripper, known as the 『doctor hated by death』, will be on the medical team. You can go all out.”
ㅤ
Two of the strongest twenty-one summoners are joining.
Professor Grey has the hardest summoned beast 『Orichalcum』 specialized in defense, and Doctor Ripper in the medical team is the kingdom’s best doctor known as the 『doctor hated by death』. However, there are rumors he charges exorbitantly for treatments.
ㅤ
“The decisive battle is in three days. The reward. . . . . .Abolishing the S-class is probably impossible. So the only option left is exile from the country. Everyone, is this an acceptable prize for victory?”
ㅤ
No one objected to Esterize’s question.
Abolishing the S-class is now impossible. So, the decision was to send them away to a remote area outside the Asgard kingdom.
This was the decision of the A-class Summoners.
ㅤ
“We’ll win. And. . . . . .we, the Student Council and A-class Summoners, will prove we’re the best.”
ㅤ
Esterize looked at everyone with an unparalleled determination.
