In-School Tournament ~Bead~

After which, the match between class C and class A advanced without delay .

Shortly after the boys team match between Class A and Class C, the match for the girls side was also held .

That being said, the participant Geonis whom Lily paid special attention to in other words, Ranze-sans son, was very strong . Rather, he was overwhelming .

At any rate, the match ended in only a few seconds .

The other students abilities were around the same . But Geonis was the only one who stood outfrom the crowd . And this was someone who only had the overall battle prowess of those from the class S .

His opponent couldnt release any magic, couldnt even swing his sword, his distance was covered in an instant and then knocked out in a single blow .

In the meantime, the girls matches started, and class A advanced in victory due to only sheer difference in status .

Maan, what a wonderful fight isnt it! As expected, participant Geonis was overwhelming Michael-san, whats your opinion on this match?

I cant tell what happened . I havent the faintest idea .

I see! So youre saying that was such a high quality fight arent you!

We dont need that commentator!

Rather than commenting, go work instead will you!? It wont do if you dont understand!

Theres no meaning for commentators if you cant even explain it to amateurs isnt it!? Get your shit together, Michael-san!

Putting that aside, after the match between class A and class C, it was finally our turn .

After seeing class A taking their leave, I turned my eyes toward Agnos and the rest of the class .

Well then, our opponent will be class S

There isnt going to be a problem!

Thats right . Well just do it as per usual .

Sensei, please rest assured .

Its okay . I wont lose .

I, Ill do my best~!

Finally, the time to showcase my beauty!

YOSHAAAA!! FIGHTINGGGG!

Milord . Im hungry .

Endure it!?

Apparently, they did not seem nervous at all, even without my concern . Rurunes nervous vein is too thick, though .

Well, anyway Lets go .

Yes!

Receiving a vigorous reply, we set out or foot into the stadium .

And then, the cheersdidnt rise .

A lowly class F getting full of themselves

Those lot who cant even use magic, like hell they could win, right?

Isnt it embarrassing, I wonder?

They wont win anyway .

A storm of disdain and ridicule .

Beatrice-san and I, and including Leon and Saria, were not directly exposed to them as we were watching the match from the benches at the far end of the stadium, but I still felt an indescribable feeling from this situation .

Beatrice-san too had a very sad and painful expression on her face .

Leon too, frightened by the surrounding disdain wore a very bitter expression . But Saria didnt seem to care at all, as she was cheering on them .

And Agnos and the rests expression were, not dead .

Cant use magic huh

Well, theyre right . No, they were right .

Hey, are we seriously doing that shit? Isnt this like throwing in our own cards?

Hn . Go ask this idiot .

Thats obvious, aint it? Theres no meaning if we dont win with our own strength

Well, Im fine with it . At any rate, I dont feel that we will lose anyhow .

I agree as well . I mean, isnt it more beautiful that way!

U~n well, I dont understand hard things! We only have to fight as usual for now!

Now that we have been taught by our teacher, I doubt whether we could fight as usual .

W, what do we do~? I think we have gotten stronger, but magic is another thing~

Apparently, Agnos and co . started talking something that I didnt quite understand and not bothering with the surrounding voices at all .

As Beatrice-san and I tilted our neck in wonder to that, class S entered the stadium a little bit later .

Well then, I hope they could be an experience for my students even if it a little .

That teacher, he cant live without saying sarcastic stuffs? Must be tough .

Even so, they say that your face mirrors your personality, but looking at that teacher, well, he certainly has a reasonably well-shaped face, but you would immediately understand that he has a nasty personality .

No matter how ugly you are, your face will be bright if youre often smiling .

Well, in my case, I always had a gloomy expression, so it couldnt be saved .

While my face was clouded, the hosts announcement flowed out .

Well then, the second is also another combination of extremes! Its a match between class F and class S!

What do you mean by that?

In this academy, class S is a group of outstanding grades, and class F is, well a group of people who has difficulties in grades .

Difficulties in grades do you mean theyre stupid?

No, thats they cant use magic, you know . Thats why, its an extreme pairing of class S who can use magic and class F who cant .

I see so its like the difference between Elites and Dropouts .

Id like you not to waste my effort of glossing it over! Well then, the participants, please prepare yourselves .

Following the host Lilys words, everyone that wouldnt fight dispersed from the stadium .

The ones who remained were Bead from my class, and the opponent was maybe it was a bad way for putting it, but he was a male student with blonde hair and blue eyes and no notable features . However, he had a nasty smile resembling his teacher . Smiling nastily must be a trend . Really, I cant keep up with recent trends at all .

Even so, the opponent boy is, how do I put it he looks like someone who would cling and fawn on influential people . Its a very rude impression of mine, though .

Then lets we start the match between participant *Toramaki* Fauner from class S versus participant Bead from class F!

Isnt that name cruel!? You mean hes a fawner!? No, I likewise, have the impression that he feels like someone who fawns over the strong! Im also generally quite rude arent I! Its only my hearts voice, so forgive me!

A stereotypical bootlicking noble .

She uttered it!

As I reflexively turned my head, there was Olga-chan who looked sleepy as usual .

Tte Eh? Olga-chan . Werent you going to watch from the audience seat together with Al?

Al-oneechan told me to watch from here . I invited her too, but since shes not particularly exclusive to class F so shed decline, she said

She doesnt need to worry about that though

Well, even if I dont mind it, others do . Mainly class S, or class S, or maybe even class S .

As I was thinking over such trivial things, Fauner and Bead held a conversation in the stadium .

Hn . The likes of dropouts like you trying to participate . Well, do your best at being my magic experimentation dummy .

Lets make best of each of us .

No matter how much Fauner plunged into him, it didnt seem that any of it worked to Bead at all . Thats strange, now that bear costume looks very reliable .

. Making light of me . Ill make you regret it!

However, Beads attitude seemed to have triggered Fauner instead, as he glared at him with hatred .

And thus .

Well then, participant Fauner from class S versus participant Bead from class F Match, start!

Responding to Lily-sans voice, Fauner made a big jump backwards and then instantly launched his magic .

Ill make you regret for screwing with me! Fire Lance!

The magic Fauner used was the type that shaped flames into a lance which flies towards he target .

Its firepower was high, and it was classified as intermediate magic .

This would do huge damage to him if he didnt avoid it .

Bead, punched that lance of fire down .

. Hah?

Fauner was baffled by the scene that laid before him .

Bead sure played it recklessly . Certainly, in this In-School Tournament, there were many people deployed who could use greater recovery magic . Therefore, any attack except instant kill ones were permitted .

Even so, people are normally afraid of injuries and wouldnt do it like how Bead did .

Only, Bead looks uninjured though .

Bead cracked his knuckles .

Come forth and perform your magic experiment without any reservation .

! Do, DONT FUCKKKK WITH MEEEEE!!!!

With only a brief comment, Fauner whose blood rushed to his head, launched a number of intermediate magic and beginner magic such as Fireball and Fire Lance

But, within that storm of magic, Bead kept advancing toward Fauner boldly while knocking his magic down .

DontcomeanycloserdontcomeanycloserdontcomeanycloserDONTCOMEDONTCOMEDONTCOOOOMEEEEEE!!!!!

Then, in order to distract Fauner, Bead did a side-step on that spot, after his opponents awareness swayed left and right, he went around him at once then landed a decisive blow to the crown of his head .

Gagappu!?

Fauner staggered on that spot and immediately collapsed to the ground, face first .

As Bead was viewing such spectacle, he took out his sketchbook as usual .

Are you satisfied with the experiment?

P, participant Fauner, down! Therefore, participant Bead from class F comes out as the victor for the match!

Even after Lily-san said so, the venue was dead silent .

Barna-san was grinning widely, but people other than him had a disbelief look on them .

Well, that was given . Why, Bead defeated his opponent without using magic at all after all .

Normally, you would invalidate the magic before attacking, or wrapping your arms with some kind of magic else it would be implausible, but in Beads case, he only relied on wind pressure when he swung his arms to suppress the fire .

Because of that, it would appear to be knocked down from the surrounding gazes .

Either way, its still not an ordinary way of fighting is it!

Bead who brazenly walked towards the other class F students then showed his sketchbook to Blood .

Blood . Go show it to your older brother .

No need to say it, huh .

Having received Beads words, Blood walked to the centre of the venue gracefully, audaciously smiling .

At that time, for us the benchwarmers expression, both Beatrice-san and Leon were bewildered, and Saria was cheerfully encouraging him .

Seiichi-oniichan .

Nn?

They, really dropouts?

I dont want to know anymore!

Seeing the previous unordinary way of fighting, I abandoned my train of thoughts .

TL Note: The Class S student is called (Toramakii) which means followers/sidekicks . As such, we have named him as Fauner to mimic the play of words . (Fawner)
