Oh hey, chapter 100.
11. Not a myth, but a legend (13)
#16 Their story: Karen rel Regrenas story.
Karen, weve got contact from Unit Five. Theyve successfully secured their target, Mercaria.
Vice-president, report from Unit Twelve! Theyve successfully taken down one of Mercarias castles!
Very good, keep going like this!
As I listened to the reports coming in, I issued the next batch of commands.
Normally this would be the student council president Nerkias job, but that idiot flipped out on how hed clear up the misunderstanding with his lover and went over to Arucia.
Because of that, tens of our students and a castle was taken down.
Was this the price for my own fit of anger yesterday I thought with a bitter smile.
Senior, report from Unit Zero. They say they couldnt dispose of the pres, but they would continue to move as an elite unit to tie up Arucia and Marciss key forces. And it has also been confirmed that Marcis and Arucia have formed an alliance as we had expected them to.
Really now? Tell them I got it.
The pres is dangerous.
We, his schoolmates knew that better about the danger he posed than anyone else.
Especially in team events like these, were moments were Pres was stronger than anyone.
If Lady Aris, as a swordsmaster and god-class summoner, was someone who could change the tides of battle, then Pres was someone who could dominate the battlefield itself.
That was why I had left Risen alone to rampage to his hearts content.
Risen had neither the power to cause a reversal in battle, nor did he have the power to dominate the battlefield.,
But he had a disgusting personality that let him backstab an ally without even a moments hesitation, and in terms of completely f***ing a person over, there was no one that could even come close to Risen.
Therefore, as Risens target, the pres was f***ed.
Risen would care not for whatever means or methods he used to dispose of the pres.
If it were any other academys student, then I wouldnt leave him alone to do what he wanted.
Because if something went wrong, that could actually lead to us getting disqualified for cheating!
But if its the pres, one of our students, then underhand tactics are allowed to an extent.
Because there were no provisions on fighting between allies in the rulebook for the imperial festival.
Of course, the mere prospect of having to fight your allies is something that no one except Professor Nicerwin could come up with.
Once Mercaria is wrapped up, send five units that went to Mercaria and have them take a crack at Marcis. According to Risens reports, a number of their heavy hitters have headed over to Arucia.
Yes, I understand.
Which meant that my role was to ensure we claimed victory in the imperial festival so we could finally say goodbye to that damned night study.
Beginning with the weakest, Mercaria, as long as we kept on making territory gains, victory was ours.
In a fight where both sides were missing their powerhouses, the students of Yugrasia would never lose to the other schools.
Because we didnt spend our year so leisurely, oh no.
Lets do our best. This disgusting night study, we should end it, right?
Yes!
Everyone around me nodded and replied in turn.
Yes, this was finally the end.
Once this imperial festival was over, we were free!
Arucia, Marcis, Mercaria, all of them were sacrifices for our freedom!
The only thing that could stop us, who were strengthened by the silver devil!
Vice-pres, Press showed himself at Mercaria!
Damn it, retreat! Retreat!
Was our student council president, who had been strengthened by the same silver devil we had.

#17 Their story: A certain student council presidents story
Wha, why?
A Mercaria student blinked at me with shocked eyes, after Id just taken down a Yugrasia student.
Im on Arucias side now.
Huh? Huhh? Huuhhhh?
Judging by how his faces saying he didnt understand, it seemed that the stories of how Mercaria students would be the future talents that would support the empire were all lies.
They couldnt understand a simple betrayal even though it was explained this simply.
If it had been a Yugrasia student, the moment I attacked them from behind they would have judged me a traitor and retaliated accordingly as a matter of fact.
-Contractor, dont you think that believing that line of thought to be natural is the stranger one?
The Spirit King of Lightning hadnt said much even after I contracted him, but this time he cut in unexpectedly.
-There is no reason one would think something natural to be strange, O King.
-Forget it
It seemed that he had a lot he wanted to say.
That was rare, for a Spirit King.
Was it because he was a Spirit King?
Kughh you trai kugh!
What, had you not gone back yet?
Id stopped attacking because the enemy had been glowing faintly, but it seemed that it was a feint.
It seemed that hed been using light magic to pretend he was being sent to the healers.
Kugh.. Kuk! Wa, wait! Im gonna die. Im going to die?!
Oi, yelling you feel like youre dying from just this as a Yugrasia student. Do you need more training?
With the power of the Spirit King, I unleashed multiple bolts of lightning magic.
I could faintly smell burnt flesh along with a crackling noise, but a Yugrasia student could take it.
Gwuuuuugh
And around a minute later, this time with a proper flash of light that signified he had been forcibly removed from the battlefield, Nerkia watched to make sure he had actually retired, before he turned to the Mercaria students.
Hiik!
D, dont come closer!
Uaahhh Hnnnnnn.
Two boys and three girls.
As they all pulled each other in closely and shivered, I looked at them with a tilted head.
Are they couples?
Judging by how you couldnt even fit your finger between their bodies, so close together they were as they faced me, it seemed that they needed to be aware there was a time and place to be affectionate with each other.
Because if had been Risen and not me, he might actually try to kill them!
Then wheres the Mercaria student council pres?
D, do you think Ill tell you where the pres is hid ing?
Perhaps misunderstanding something, one of the boys said so while shivering, but his last words were so quiet I couldnt hear them.
No, Im not your enemy, Im telling you?
Hiik!
Oi, oi, just tell him! Just tell him!
Or else hell torture us by electrocution!
S, surely he wouldnt do that at the imperial festival right?
As I took a step closer to them, one of the girls flinched and backpedalled from where she sat.
I couldnt make out what they were whispering between them but if I got a little closer
Um
Yes! Th, the pres is where, wheres the map?!
Desk! On the desk!
Ah, here it is. Ah, the pres is over here. Hes in the room used as food storage.
Thanks to the truly detailed explanation, I found out where the Mercaria student council president was.
I approached them to thank them for the information, but why were they running away?
Im not a scary person?
-Im starting to get the feeling I chose the wrong contractor
And now for some reason the Spirit King is saying something weird as well, now whats with him.
Im just doing my best to survive as well!
Is it here?
It was the smallest of the castles that had been assigned to Mercaria, but it was also the furthest away from Yugrasia.
Normally it wouldnt be used as the main base, but as Arucia, Marcis and Mercaria had all joined in an alliance, it seemed that they had chosen the location furthest from Yugrasia.
Now, then.
If I went through the front door then of course they wouldnt believe me.
Learning from experience, I used a wind elemental to fly into the castle.
Intruder!
Enemy spotted in the air!
Theres only one, get him!
Correction, I tried and was noticed.
I knew it!
But I had also expected this!
Since three days ago, when I had spoken out about Professor Nicerwin, nothing had gone right for me.
Id been kidnapped by Professor Nicerwin and beaten up by the silver devil, Id fallen into Risens devious trap and became an evil asshole who would even use his lover, and I was being chased my students who were trying to actually kill me because Id betrayed the academy.
But just this!
I blocked 26 spells that were casted at me, deflected 82 more back to the ground and caused massive destruction, once I landed I used earth elementals to create 23 earth pillars to hoist up the 23 students that had come charging in at me to effectively imprison them 10m above the ground.
P, please spare me
And I laid a light hand on the Mercaria pres who had raged at me, not believing me, to the end.
-Light?
-Yes, that is light by Yugrasia standards, O King.
-Yugrasia standards
Kuhk
Hey now, the student council president cant fall that easily. Whos gonna lead the students if their pres falls?
As the teleportation spell to the healers began to kick in, I hurriedly used a water elemental to heal him.
Lately the equation [healing = increased time getting the living crap beaten out of you!] had formed in the night study so I wasnt as practiced at healing as I used to be, but it was good enough to stop him from being forcefully retired.
Kugh.. Cruel bastard
No Im telling you, Im on your side. Even if I heal you youre still complaining.
I even kind enough to wipe the blood off the corners of his mouth.
Im just here because I have a message from the Arucia student council president, Kiir.
No wait a second, why is the Yugrasia student council president the one carrying a message from the Arucia student council president?
Mercarias vice-president said with a voice reeking of disbelief. Unlike Mercarias president, their vice-president hadnt taken as much damage and as such his words were more comprehensible.
I said it before, but Im on Arucias side now?
No seriously, thats what Im trying to say! Why the hell is the Yugrasia student council president on Arucias side!
He asked me to tell him so I told him, but he simply got angrier.
Hes weird.
Hm
But even so, right now were on the same side.
I need to explain it simply for him, what should I say
Thats it. Mm. Yep. Why Im at Arucia?
Why?
The power of love!
A leaden silence filled the room.
As I thought, everyone was speechless at my flawless explanation.
Thats how it is, so listen up. These are Kiirs orders. Theres no point in defending Mercaria, so get everyone to pack up and come to the Arucia main base.
Everyone? Youre telling us to just hand over 1000 points over to Yugrasia?
The other members of Mercarias student council, who hadnt let out a peep so far, began to raise their heads one by one.
Their eyes were filled with strong doubt and suspicion.
Its true, isnt it? Besides
Heated fire. Flexible wind. Cold water. Durable earth.
I dont have a reason to lie to you. If I was lying, beating you all would be a simple job.
I summoned four highest-rank elementals of the four cardinal elements and smiled brightly.
Perhaps it was due to contracting with the Spirit King of Lightning, but lately I could contract even more highest-rank spirits after I met Professor Nicerwin.
Thats true.
In the depths of a giant storeroom.
As the giant highest-rank elementals glowed with a mysterious light, the Mercaria student council stared, gaping up at the figures before nodding.
So, pack up and send everyone over?
The events from here were dealt with quickly enough.
I looked at them quickly pack up their base, and communicate through the magic communication tools provided for this event to order all of their students not currently under attack to retreat from their castles.
Right then, Ill head off in advance.
I waved and left the Mercaria students.
Behind me I saw the Mercaria students sprinkle something like a white dust, what could it be?
-It is better if you do not know.
-Really?
Well if a Spirit King is saying so then it should be alright to not care about it anymore.
I had plenty of other things to care about anyway.
Yes, like
Hand over Nerkiaaaaaaaaa!
How many times do I have to tell you hes not here!
A giant sword of flames collided with Risens god-killing stick, causing a giant explosion.
Haap!
As Lady Aris grunted, scores of Arucia students flew through the air.
Already, many Arucia students that looked no better than corpses were littering the area around them.
Keheheheh
And further away, was Reedan laughing truly diabolically as he watched over the carnage.
At a single wave of his hand, the Arucia students turned their blades on each other.
As if he was bored, every now and then hed wave his hand at the few Marcis students, who would dump a magic artillery barrage onto the Arucia students.
Gruaaaaagh!
Awoooooooo!
On one side a bear was flipping people away, and behind it, a giant wolf was howling towards the sky.
Yep, Ill hang around a bit before I go.
I snapped myself out of my blank stare and discreetly lowered my altitude to land silently on the ground. From there, I quietly watched over them until Risen retreated to resupply his team.
