Chapter 13 – 2.5 Cal, Moonlight
(Left: Chairman Mizuki, Right: Shinozaki Shinobu)
“Welcome, Knives.”
President Mizuki, who was relaxing with a cup of tea in the president’s room, greets me.
“Hello, Chairman. Goodbye Shinoshino.”
“Whoops.”
“Don’t call me that…… !”
Chairman Mizuki, who is still pliable.
And, she was still the prickly Shinoshino.
“Yes? Knives seems to be in a bad mood today.”
『Kuk. He’s still an annoying guy. If it wasn’t for the president…… !』
“Knives, what happened?”
“…… Yes. My friend suddenly turned into a woman.”
I thought about it for a while, but decided to just say it.
Rumors will spread quickly anyway. If it was the president, he might have already known.
“That’s Kurosaki Yuuki.”
“Did you already know?”
Also the chairman.
It wouldn’t be strange if the president knew about it.
“No. I know now.”
『Because he is the only friend of Knives.』
Kuh……. I was angry, but I couldn’t resist.
“Did Knives do that?”
“Yes? How do I?”
“Oh my gosh! He couldn’t be satisfied with the woman he had right now, so he changed his male friend to a female one! No matter how much sexual desire is said to be the driving force of invention, Knives is really amazing !”
President Mizuki had wild imaginations.
What do you mean by changing a male friend to a female?
In the first place, I am a pure-hearted, pure-hearted and pure-hearted insect. I hope you don’t treat people like harem monsters.
“Because Knives seem to have a lot of strange talents.”
“There is no such thing as turning a man into a woman.”
“I do not know. What about?”
The president smiles brightly.
“It just went well. I hope Knives will feel relieved after receiving my present.”
Gift?
Would you like to give me the teddy bear pants that the president wore?
That would ease my mood too.
“Uh hmm. Well then, lunchtime is just around the corner, so I’ll tell you the business first. Shino.”
Upon the president’s order, Shinoshino placed the items she had prepared on the president’s desk.
A long box made of black lacquered wood.
The eerie aura it gave off reminded me of a coffin.
“Do you know Knives? Those weapons that can be used against monsters are being developed in common all over the world.”
“I heard the story.”
Monsters are the common enemy of mankind, regardless of nationality or race.
The whole world has come together as one before that common enemy.
Anti-monster weapon research and development project.
Scholars from all over the world are putting their heads together to develop weapons that can fight monsters.
The problem is that since data is shared all over the world, most countries focus on self-recovery rather than research, saying, “If I don’t do it, someone else will.”
So even decades later, proper results have not come out.
“Inside here is a prototype of the weapon.”
“…… Are you finished? A weapon against monsters?”
I don’t remember how it was in the original game.
I don’t think there was any mention of that while I was playing, but…… I can’t be sure. I was so shocked by the rape scene that other texts might not have caught my eye.
The fact that the chairman deliberately prepared for this kind of event must mean that he developed such a weapon.
It may be said that it is the signal flare of the great leap for mankind.
“It is not a finished product. It’s still in the testing phase. There are many problems to be solved. However, it has been confirmed that it is a weapon that also works against monsters.”
『A weapon that works even against monsters…… I hope the chairman gave it to Knives…… ?』
Shinoshino raises her alertness.
I hope you don’t stare at me like that. I didn’t even ask for it first. Of course, if you give it, you will receive it.
-It’s sweet.
The chairman unlocks the lock and opens the lid of the wooden coffin.
Inside, there are two Japanese swords of opposite colors, black and white.
Both were weapons I had seen in the game.
The length is usually shorter than Japanese swords. About 50 cm long?
Did you say this is wakizashi?
Among the two swords, the chairman held a white Japanese sword in his hand.
In the original work, it was the weapon carried by the captain of the guards.
“How are you, Shino? Isn’t it nice?”
“…… Yes.”
By calling me, he must have meant that he would give me that weapon.
Thinking so, Shinoshino put on an expression that seemed a little dissatisfied, but on the other hand, it couldn’t be helped.
“The name of this white sword is Daylight (日光, Nikko). Please protect me where the sun shines, Shino.”
Is that too
Even in the original work, it was the weapon of the captain of the bodyguard, so it was only natural that the incumbent captain of the bodyguard, Shinoshino, should receive it.
For reference, the captain of the guards in the original work took responsibility for last year’s situation and stepped down from the front line.
“M-Chairman Mizuki…… !”
Shino, as if he hadn’t expected his name to be called, got down on one knee in front of Chairman Mizuki in surprise.
And preciously, so preciously, he receives the knife that the president holds out.
I applaud from the side.
Oh If you go a little further, you’ll see Shinoshino’s panties.
But the president’s eyes are too scary to snoop around.
Let’s quietly applaud.
“Even at the cost of this life…… !”
“You shouldn’t sacrifice your life.”
Even as I clap, I throw jokes at Shinoshino.
However, Shinoshino was so thrilled that he couldn’t even afford to reply to my words as usual.
Seeing Shinoshino holding the knife he received from the president with care made my heart warm.
“And the name of this black sword is Moonlight (月光, Gekko). Cut my enemy in the dark, Knives.”
“It’s an honor, Chairman Mizuki.”
I get down on one knee along with Shinoshino and receive the sword from the chairman.
In the original story, this ominous black sword was worn by the vice president of the student council.
And now, the vice-president died last year in an “Unfortunate accident.”
Thanks to you, this knife came to me.
In the original story, Shinoshino was also cut to death by this sword.
Write carefully.
“I… Chairman. I dare say it’s presumptuous, but lowering the knife to Knives…….”
Chairman Mizuki smiled at Shinoshino’s words.
“Do you think Shinodo Knives don’t deserve it?”
“…… No. However, the students said that the president and Knives…… That…….”
“You mean you think Knives is my lover?”
It was the chairman who smiled and brought up the story that Shinoshino couldn’t bear to say because he was sorry.
“It just went well. Shino, too, don’t be too denial, spread rumors as if you really are.”
“Yes?! President, that’s it!”
To say I’m President Mizuki’s lover.
If Chairman Mizuki finds out, I might have to go into the drum.
“It would be easier for Knives to move like that, right?”
It is common for students to evaluate Knives as “A neighborhood bully wearing an SS armband and going wild.”
Why is this bully joining the president’s bodyguard?
Among ordinary students, such questions naturally arose.
Then yesterday and today, many people saw the president and I getting along.
Thanks to this, rumors are spreading that Knives is actually the president’s lover.
A hitman who secretly handles the chairman’s enemy (the rapist)? Executioner?
To put it mildly, that’s it.
To put it bluntly, a bully who cuts down the guy I don’t like (the rapist)?
…… If so, is it as rumored?
Anyway, saying that I received a knife with the president’s seal on it means that killing me is the same as killing the president.
I will continue to cut many insulting insects with this sword I received from the president.
However, if my identity is known, the raping insects will surely be wary and hide like cockroaches.
If that’s the case, it’s better to be regarded as a simple bully who was stabbed by the chairman’s favoritism.
“…… That’s true, but I’m worried that the president’s authority will be lost.”
The problem is that my reputation is so bad that it will affect the president’s reputation.
The chairman laughed confidently and unfolded the folding fan.
“I don’t need it if it’s authority that will be lost that much. Did you think I was the kind of woman who would dwell on such little things?”
“Chairman……!”
Shinoshino is moved to tears by the president’s words.
『Whoops. It’s a funny story that Knives is my fake lover. It might be interesting to see the development of falling in love with Knives as it is.”
“Ah! Chairman! I will follow you until I die, Chairman! Haha!”
…… The chairman is a hedonist to the core. It’s safe to say that I chose that because it’s fun to do it simply.
Shinoshino can ignore it anyway, as he will unconditionally approve of what the chairman says, even if he throws fermented soybeans with dung.
“Chairman. May I draw the knife?”
A new weapon that works against monsters.
I was wondering what features it has.
I am a man too I have no choice but to be thrilled with the new weapon.
However, Shinoshino interferes with me.
“Nives. I can’t forgive you for pulling out your sword in front of the president. Do not be rash.”
“Hoo? What if I can’t forgive you?”
When he responded to Shino Shino’s threat with a provocation, Shino Shino put his hand on the hilt of his sword instead of answering.
Are you going to say that I can’t and that you’re okay? Chet.
Of course, I have no intention of seriously fighting with Shinoshino, so let’s stop.
“If you put magic into the sword, it vibrates. You could call it a super vibrating blade.”
“Magic power? Is it like this?”
As the chairman said, holding the hilt and applying magic power, the sword starts to tremble.
“Wow, a vibrator!?”
She was started to vibrate so strongly.
To the point that a naive person like me would immediately think of ‘that thing’.
“A vibrator…… !』
“A vibrator…… ?』
The reactions of the chairman and Shinoshino are subtly different.
The chairman blushes and Shino Shino tilts his head.
Shinoshino, you look like an innocent guy.
“Cutting power is strong in vibration mode, so be careful. It will easily cut through even the hard hide of a monster.”
“Indeed. Using magic as fuel means that you have succeeded in processing the ‘Rune Stone’.”
Rune stones are small stones that can sometimes be obtained by killing monsters.
I collected it thinking it would have a use for it, but I couldn’t figure out how to use it in the meantime.
The biggest reason why research has been slow even after decades of monsters came out is because they couldn’t afford it. Because the basic infrastructure and education system were all destroyed.
“I’m not a scientist, so I can’t tell you anything.”
“Well, I wouldn’t know even if I heard it anyway.”
Uh-huh, I pull the vibrating sword out of its scabbard.
“Shall we cut something?”
“Knives!”
“Wow!?”
I had just unintentionally pulled out my sword, but suddenly Shinoshino’s horizontal slash came flying by.
I jumped back and dodged the blade.
The blade passed narrowly in front of my stomach.
Cold sweat wells up.
“Shinoshino! It’s dangerous!”
“You know best that if you take out your weapon in front of the chairman, you will have nothing to say even if you die, right?”
“You took it out too!”
“I am the captain of the guards.”
“I am also an SS member!”
Shinoshino was aiming a knife right in front of me.
Do you really want to kill me! Such an obstinate bitch!
“You know that jokes don’t end, right?”
I follow Shinoshino and threaten her with a knife pointed at her head.
If you can’t communicate through words, you have no choice but to fight back. Because my life is precious to me too.
Of course, I’ve never learned anything like kendo.
It’s probably that the basic posture is clumsy in the eyes of a person with knowledge.
However, I did not think that even such a country would lose to Shinoshino.
Because this guy is weak.
“Knives, you can’t kill Shino.”
“Not me, but Shino!”
Let it dry!
I’m trying to say
Shinoshino moved without a sound.
The clock slows down.
Shinoshino’s stab aimed at my talking neck.
I only move one step to the left.
Do you seriously want to kill me, you bastard!
Shinoshino passed by me as I stepped aside.
I aim for his neck his and strike his sword his.
– Whiing.
A strange feeling, as if it had been touched, as if nothing had been touched, was transmitted to the hand of her.
– Pallang.
A red scarf falls from Shinoshino who passed by.
I caught it in the air.
Academy student scarves have different colors for each grade level.
Yellow for 1st grade, blue for 2nd grade, and red for 3rd grade.
From the 4th grade, it is yellow, blue and red again.
By the way, I’m nerdy, so I’m leaving it out.
“Shinoshino. Now you are dead As a bonus, the president died too.”
“Ugh~.”
Poof, as he swung the knife at the chairman, the chairman pretended to die as a joke.
The reason Shinoshino’s neck is still attached is purely because I didn’t hit him.
In real life, he would have died inevitably.
Even Shinoshino knows that much.
“Kuk!”
Shinoshino turned around with an angry face.
However, Shino Shino couldn’t take another step and knelt down on one knee.
Oh This time I can see the panties.
White. Plain.
Shinoshino-style unadorned panties.
Funny guy.
I’ll have to see though.
“The problem with the super vibrating blade prototype is that it consumes too much magic power. Even if it is operated for a short time, the normal rune holder will run out of mana.”
It’s unbelievably costly.
Shinoshino’s collapse must have been due to a lack of magical power.
『How can Knives be fine? Even after consuming so much mana…… !』
That’s because the basic magic power is different.
From our generation to the older generations, most of the men have more magic power than the women.
This is all because of the Japanese forced labor. During the great disaster, the man dragged all the children to the battlefield.
At that time, the person who killed even one monster leveled up and became stronger.
In particular, I was killing hard.
It was only natural that there was a difference in the amount of magical power compared to Shinoshino, who was watching a magical girl anime at home at the same time.
“I usually need to practice so that I can only use my magic the moment I cut.”
As soon as the mana stored in the sword was removed, the vibration of the sword also stopped.
The gas mileage is so bad that I sigh.
No matter how prototype it is, who is going to use it like this?
“Did you hear that, Shino?”
“…… I’m sorry, Chairman.”
Despite the president’s words, Shinoshino couldn’t get up.
It seems that his mana has been robbed to the point where he can’t even stand.
Would you like to play around with this?
I pointed my finger at Shinoshino and shouted.
Of course, her gaze was fixed on Shinoshino’s panties.
“Huh! You look good! He jumped on his own and fell alone! If I were the real enemy, you and the president would die! So, can you say that you are the captain of the guards? It’s a waste of the sword the president gave me!”
“Nice……!”
Shinoshino gritted her teeth and blushed in anger.
“As expected, I am weak. I can’t protect the president with this weakness…….』
Uhm, should I end here? If you tease her more, she might really cry.
Still, Shinoshino wants to use this humiliation as a stepping stone to become stronger.
Even to protect the president.
“This scarf is confiscated as punishment for suddenly attacking. I’ll give it back to you next time you come to ‘politely’ apologize.”
Shino puts Shino’s scarf in his pocket.
It was useless, but it was grumpiness for being suddenly attacked.
『Nives, you unscrupulous…… ! What kind of apology are you asking me for? No way…… !』
Just say you’re sorry and give it back.
I don’t know which one is more shameless.
– Ding dong dang dong.
Just then, the preliminary bell announcing the end of lunchtime rang.
“Then I will go back. I will use the knife well, Chairman.”
“Don’t kill too many, Knives.”
I waved my hand and left the president’s room.
──And when I returned to the classroom, Yuuki turned into a water-soaked mouse.
