5.25 Their Story

[3]Aris Ril Letia: I saw the devil.

Now, here are your t

We ran the moment the professor opened his mouth. We could hear him shout inannoyance behind us, butwe ignored it.

Dont fight the professor. Our target is the upper floors. Today, our goal is not to escape!

-Understood, boss!

I made them call me thatsincethey kept calling me miss andtalked to me ina respectful tone, butwhy is this making me feel like a gang leader..?

-I can feel a powerful energy pulsating nearby. Be careful.

[Thank you forthe warning.]

God-ranked summons really were something else. WhileAthena doesnt have any powerful attacks oranything, she was still a goddess of war andwisdom.

Her experiences andwisdom allowed me to get away from several critical situations, andher weapons allowed me to increase my survivability by a huge amount.

What the?!

Attack!

Whenwe, whoalmost always went down whentrying to escape, went up, the professors guarding floor five all turned around inshock. Butdid we wait forthem to recover? No! Afterall, they never did wait forus whenwe tried to run!

Appear, Krinn!

Out with you, Ahma!

Destroy your enemies, Macis!

The twenty students here all summoned their beastsand began attacking the professors. Eventhoughmany of our comrades here contracted weaker beasts, we still had the initiative.

Boss, please win forour sakes!

We believe inyou, boss!

Word hard, boss!

Alright! You can definitely trust me to succeed! Seniors, lets go!

I took the ten of our elitesand began walking upwards. Andthe moment we broke into the sixth floor, the voice of the Student Council President began to ring throughout the entire school.

Beep!

-My name is Nerkia Nes Leria. AndI want to ask each every one of you students, no, my comrades, a question. Arent you angry?

Alright, hes begun! Lets go!

The representative of the second years led their grade andjoined us. It was nowtime to take over the seventh floor!

-Sure, us third years are all trying to get out of here, sincewere done with everything. To the first years, whostill have much to overcome, andto the second years, whorealized the harshness of the world, the great wall known asthe faculty might seem impossible to break through. Right, this is reality. Afterall, the grades you get inyour second year determine your entire future. Afterall, the companies inthe empire would recieve your grades afterthe end of second year. Andone of the biggest things thatdetermine your grade inthis school are the professors. Becauseof this, you need to try to look good to the teachers, andyou need to try not to rebel infront of them. I get it. This is what reality is like.

You bastards?!

The fights began the moment the professors heard us going up to the seventh floor. Aswe were onthe lower ground, we were atthe disadvantage, butwe still outnumbered them greatly!

[Goddess!]

-Right, you may borrow my power!

Heros armor, appear!

It becomes easier fora summoner to draw onhis orher beasts power whenthe two mutually agree to share their power. Of course, whena beast doesnt agree to lend its power, it takes a lot of strength forthe summoner to use the beasts strength. Butas I andthe goddess both have a mutual enemy, she is supporting me 100%! She is onmy side!

-But lets not think about reality fora moment. Arent you angry? Arent you angry thatyou have to stay inschool evenafterclasses end to study? Do they think we do nothing back inour dorms? Do they think we dont evenstudy back inour dorms? To be honest, we dont. Of course we dont. We dont do shit evenifthey tell us to study inside school, sowhyd we study inour free time? Butevenifthis makes us angry, we need to stay quiet. But butthen again. It really does get me angry. Ifyoure trying to get me to study, just make me study. Whyare you provoking us to run? Ifyou just tell us to study andend it atthat, wed just study quietly inschool. Wed complain, andrun every onceina while, butwed mostly study. Butthe faculty just decided to tell us to run outright. Whodo they think we are? Were one of the students thatgo to one of the most prestigious schools inthe empire. We outnumber the faculty by ten times. Buteven so, theyre still provoking us!

Swears began to pop out of the professors mouths assoonasthe Student Council President said this.

Bullshit. We all know youd run evenifwe didnt tell you to run!

Nerkia was the first to go, damn it! Whythe hell is he eventhe Student Council President?!

Did you forget thatthe Student Council was composed of Yugrasias greatest blockheads? Remember how they decided to host a crossdressing contest inthe national festival andfailed spectacularly?

Failed? Didnt they attract the most amount of people? I mean, we may be lacking ina lot of areas compared to Arucia orMarcis, butit is true thatwe have more pretty boys

Mm I dont know much about the schoolsince I got hired this year. Buthonestly speaking, this school performed the best inthe last years festival.

So what?! Do you think the elders want to see some crossdressed boys? They want to see sword fights andmagic showcases! Thats whywe got marked by them!

Ah

Evenwhilearguing like that, they managed to skillfully block us off with their skills. But!

The spear of Athena, Aegis, come!

I summoned the spear andshieldand charged forward. Eventhoughthese are merely fake versions of the real thing, they are still extremely powerful!

Haah!

A single swing of the spear brought down the stone wall thatwas blocking the staircase. The shield blocked all attacks thatwere aimed atme andthose thatwere unable to be blocked all got bounced off by my armor!

-Pressure is extremely important inwar. Ifthe enemy has a hero capable of killing a thousand, we just have to pressure them with ten thousand. War is not a one-on-one battle. It is a battle numbering between thousands, a battle between nations. Andthe battle here is something wherethe students severely outnumber their enemies! Aslongaswe strike atthe right moment, eventhe seemingly invincible faculty can be brought down!

I listened to her instructions, andimmediately ran up the staircase. I only had one role. I was to become the goddess of victory whowould sweep inthe feeling of hope into our soldiers!

-By the way you know what makes me really angry? They told us to run, andwe tried to run, butwe failed countless times. Thats what makes me angry. Cant students win against teachers? Is it impossible forstudents no, us to surpass our teachers?! I dont think thats true. If, ifwe asthe students, gather our power. Ifwe decide to unite together! Wed be able to take down any faculty inany of the schools! Thats what I think. Andso Ill just end this with this one statement.

Clack!

Asthe presidents speech was about to come to an end, we reached the seventh floor. I swung the spear ina wide arc andshouted.

This floor is ours!

The second years charged inas the professors dodged my attack. The ten professors onthis floor were unable to suppress the charge, andwe were able to push them to the eighth floors staircase.

This is the end!

Butjustaswe were about to finish it all, that appeared.

Heh~? Somaster really wasnt lying? Everyones here!

A little girl was seen, climbing up the path we cleared forfreedom.

-U, uhaaa?! R, run!!

A silver hairand a long, white one piece dress. From afar, the girls big eyes andsmile gave off a feeling of mysteriousness andpurity. ButI knew thatthis thing was an evil spirit thatcould beat up gods andgoddesses!

-Those of you whoare pissed off about staying afterschool. Those of you whoare pissed about having to be the teachers pet. And, those of you whoare pissed atseeing us fail all the time, please help. Atleast a little bit.

Beep!

Wheneveryones eyes turned to the little girl walking up, the presidents speech ended. The little girl then looked up to the ceiling with a curious face.

Eh? Did it end? Hed come down then, right? Sincemaster told me to get the president

The little girl scrunched up her face a bit asshe thought. Aftera moment, her face straightened out into a big grin asshe reached a conclusion.

So fornow, everyone heres dead?

Shup!

Aseveryone stared atthe little girl jump up towards them, I shouted to warn everyoneabout the impending doom.

Thats Nicerwins summon! Run!

Eh? Tha kuh?

Gurgh!

The two seniors whofirst came across her screamed, andfell down. Only then did everyone realize what peril they were in, andraised their shields. Butof course, thatwasnt enough!

-Dont evenbother using magic shields! Thatthing can ignore a shield made by god! Just block with physical objectsor attack first!

Attack! We need to take it down!

WhenI conveyed the words of the frantic goddess to the students, two third years immediately moved to dispatch the enemy.

Garett! Go tear her a new one!

Nogan! Smash her!

A giant wolf ran forward with its teeth bared, andan earth elemental raised its colossal arm inorder to attack the girl.

The girl was about to be either smashed orripped apart! However!

-GAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

-Guooooooo!

The wolf cried out inpain assoonasit bit the girl, andthe earth elemental returned to dust.

Kuo?!

C, cough! A, a forced unsummon?!

The senior whosummoned the elemental fell forward with a moanand the senior whosummoned the wolf shouted inshock ashis face paled more thanever.

Hehe, are you idiots? Attacks arent much. An attack counts whentwo things collide, andpain rises asa result. Think about it, ifa person punches a brick wall, would the fist hurt, orwould the wall hurt?

The girl raised her fingerand went tsk tsk asshe spoke.

The answer is, the person whohit the wall is the one hurting!

Assoonasthe sentence came to an end, the girl balled up her hands andjumped up.

Meaning that, youll feel hurt no matter what you do!

Kwek?!

Whoosh! Vuun!

Sound effects from your m gah!

R, run!

B, block her!

The students either ran orattempted to block the girl, no, the silver demon whoadvanced whileshooting out sound effects from her mouth. Butmost, ifnot all of them all turned into a living sacrifice.

Eh? Its the girl whocontracted with the woman whofelt really good to beat up?

Hmph!

Crack!

I barely managed to block the girls attack with my shield. The shock thatI got from the strength of her attack was nearly indescribable.

H, her strength?!

-D, dodge! Y, you mustnt allow yourself to get hit by that!

[B, butit looks like I can block her attacks aslongasI dont get a direct hit from her!]

-E, eh? Sophysical defenses work? Butits still best to just dodge! We still dont have a foolproof plan against her!

Heh, you blocked?

Hii?!

Too weak~!

I immediately attempted to stab her with my spear whenshe grinned atme, butthe girl simply dodged the attackand aimed formy wrist.

-Throw away your weapon!

WhenI threw away the spear asinstructed, the girl immediately grabbed the spear andstabbed it down onthe ground.

A good spear! ButI dun need!

The girl leaped forward!

Hmph?!

I tried to move further away from her, butthen the girl stopped inher place. She jumped back towards her spear.

The reason I moved back was!

The moment her feet landed onthe spear, the weapon bent back, andsprung her forward!

To gain speed!

Bang!

The girls flying kick was nearing me atan extreme speed.

[Goddess, please grant me strength andpower!]

-Ah, wait! Im gonna be damaged ifyou use that! N, no!

[Im gonna use it!]

I decided thatI would not be able to block her attack with my own power, anddecided to merge my soul with thatof the goddess using a technique known asspirit merging.

-I, I dont like you!

My body let inhalf of the goddess soul into it. AsI was unable to take inall of her soul, I was only able to use a portion of her power.

Haah!

Our wills to survive worked together fornowand the Aegis Shield began to shine.

Bang!

Kuh!

I was sent flying from the kick, butI still managed to block it!

-Ugh, t, too strong! I cant block the next one!

My legs were already trembling. This was dangerous. EventhoughI borrowed strength from the goddess, my body was thatof an average female. It was insufficient to block an attack from something thatcould destroy immortals!

Hehe? Did you block it? You blocked twice! Asexpected, youre fun?!

Whenthe girl began to laugh out of excitement, both my face aswell asthe goddess turned pale.

-Aris, stop using spirit merge.

[G, goddess!]

-G, go die alone.. I dont want to get beat up

[Were contracted together, though!]

-T, this was a cheat! It was a cheat!

Justasthe friendship between a summoner andher summon was about to break, a miracle occurred.

Rustle!

Eh? Whats this?

The eyes of the girl met with thatof a single student whohad just stood up.

What? Did you pretend to be passed out? Is thatit? What a!

H, huaaaa!

Asthe boy tried to run from fear, the girl smiled an evil smileand kicked the boy down from behind. She then promptly mounted herself onto the boy!

Bad kids need to be punished!

Kueee?! Uaaaah! Im, Im sor Geeeh!

Crack crack crack!

Seeing the boy faint andcome back to life again andagain from each hit made me paler by the second.

Comrade Aris, just what is going on?

Atthat moment, the student council arrived.

A demon. A demon is here.

I managed to spit out a few words afterswallowing my fear. Then, I pointed to a single place.

Heehee! Wham wham! Yap! Hiya!

There was a drooling human whowas repeatedly trying to say forgive me.. along with a silver demon whowas beating up the human mercilessly.
