28 – Student Council (3)

* * * *

“Now! Then, about the party composition of the 1st year student council members…”

Irene kicked off the desk and stood up, looking at Ian and me alternately, smiling lightly.

And finally, he turned his gaze to me and opened his mouth.

“First of all, I can beat that monster 1:1. Raise your hand. Except for Ian Cedric. He’s the co-chief.”

“…”

“…”

Silence filled the room.

In the midst of that silence, the eyes of three people turned to me.

One is, of course, Irene’s glancing gaze.

In addition to questioning why he hadn’t learned knightly swordsmanship with such skill, he seemed a little displeased.

Even so, I proved that skill, so I can’t bear to say anything.

Another is Lily’s gaze.

A different feeling from the wary gaze I encountered in the B-04 area the other day… It seemed like they were looking at me for a moment, but I felt it.

what? What am I doing wrong?

But there was no time to think about it.

It was because the last third gaze was so enigmatic.

‘Selina?’

She is the main heroine of ＜Academy Demon God Subjugation＞ and was originally scheduled to be enrolled as the head of the Faculty of Magic.

However, now she has been pushed back by Lily and has become the second seat.

He looked at me sideways and gave me a look that was difficult to express in words.

It’s unbelievable that a freshman like himself could have defeated such a guy. A look that seems to want to say

Even though she did the same thing in the original work, it was hard to believe as she hadn’t actually experienced him.

However, her expression disappeared as Irene’s applause soon followed.

Then, as Irene took a step between me and Ian, he too was quickly forgotten.

“Then, first of all, the two of you take turns deciding on the party members. Properly and in a balanced way. And the party members are fixed at 4, you know?”

It was quite different from the original, but

It wasn’t a bad result for me. It also meant that I could have the ideal party members I wanted.

However, it seemed that our protagonist did not think so either.

“Then, are the remaining members active as a party? Wouldn’t there be a bias in power?”

If this unnecessarily caring guy chooses the members to suit his taste, won’t the party with the remaining members become relatively weak?

He spat out words that were acceptable.

I actually spit it out with that meaning, and that’s true too.

But there was one thing Ian couldn’t figure out.

The fact that sometimes facts can come with very unpleasant violence.

The people gathered here are obviously the people who took the top and bottom seats in each department.

Wouldn’t it be dangerous if the number of people left behind by such people organized a party? To say something like that, the reaction of the children here was obvious.

“Don’t say that kind of stupid nonsense, just choose quickly. Do you think the duties assigned to the student council are limited to physical use?”

Lily, who had been quietly watching the situation from a corner, was still glaring at Ian with her arms crossed, and was so confused.

For her, who is also educated as a princess, Ian’s way of thinking, which has only held a sword for a lifetime, must have been looked upon with displeasure at its simplicity.

“…Kuhup.”

My shoulders twitched slightly, unable to hold back the laughter.

He hadn’t even thought that Lily would shoot Ian so openly.

Irene looked at me and Lily with a strange gaze, and then, with a proud shrug, said to Ian.

“Well, the head of the Faculty of Magic is right. There are people who do combat missions, but there are also a lot of people who do other things.”

“Ah…I didn’t know that. I apologize for my hasty judgment and words and actions.”

Ian lowered his head and closed his eyes. Then, with Ian’s kind smile, Irene patted Ian’s shoulder.

“It’s okay. Every year, there’s at least one kid who gets the same illusion as you. Two years ago…I did.”

“senior….”

Ian looks as if he is moved by Irene who comforts him.

Ian let out a short sigh, taken aback by Ian’s movement, as if he had already opened his heart after meeting him not too long ago.

“her.”

The fuckers do it. do the shit

And, as if having thoughts similar to mine, a woman’s faint voice was heard indistinctly.

“…why.”

A voice so faint that it was difficult to tell whose voice it was.

I moved my eyes around in search of the source of the voice, but no one showed any reaction, so I decided not to take it seriously.

* * * *

“Ian, it’s not like we have to choose between you and me anyway, right?”

“right?”

“Then, from now on, take out the three I’m talking about and choose.”

“It’s okay, but… have you already decided on the member you want to take?”

“uh.”

A corner of the student council room.

Ian and I exchanged stories while whispering to each other with our arms around our shoulders.

I did it because I didn’t know what kind of wariness I would have with Lily if I openly said that there was someone who had decided in advance.

The strategy meeting between me and Ian was brief,

Soon after, Ian cautiously approached Selina and asked.

“Would you…would you like to party with me?”

And the dialogue that follows… .

‘uh? me? I’ll be fine… ?’

“Huh? Me? Will it be okay with me…?”

thank god. Since I hadn’t intervened in the relationships between the characters yet, these detailed conversations didn’t seem to have changed.

And according to a pre-determined bar, next it’s my turn to choose the party members.

The first person I would choose was very natural.

However, given her current personality, the possibility of rejecting my proposal was high, so I took a step while repeating the excuses I had prepared in my mind.

“The princess…Your Highness. Would you like to have a party with me?”

She took me from bottom to top for a moment. He glanced at him again, looking down from the top, then let out a light sigh and nodded.

“Yes, there is no reason to refuse.”

Rather, it was none other than me who was momentarily taken aback by her consent so easily.

All the excuses I had thought of beforehand had become useless.

Even so, I didn’t feel like my liking increased. If so, she would have shown traces of affection in her eyes as she looked at me.

Her gaze was still stinging, but she accepted my offer with ease.

I had no choice but to move on as Ian had already taken the elf, the head of the archery department.

This time, to Grace, who had promised me beforehand.

“Grace.”

Grace smiled lightly at my call and nodded softly.

Soon after, Ian also took the deputy head of the Divinity Department because he needed a healing role group.

My gaze turned to the girl squatting in the corner opposite Lily’s.

As I step towards her,

Other student council members in that direction swallowed expectantly.

Hearing my rumors, he seemed to have decided that if he had a party with me, he would be able to achieve decent results while still in school.

However, as I passed him and them one by one, their gaze was at first regretful.

Then question.

And finally, it came to send a look of astonishment.

“Anna Freesia, Alchemy Department, right?”

“Ah, yes…? Me, me? Yes…but…?”

“Let’s party with me.”

“yes?”

“You want to party with me.”

Knight (Assassin), Mage, Healer.

If the combination was chosen like this, of course, the next would be the martial arts department or spearmanship department that could protect the healer.

Or it was because it was the right thing to do to help the knight move and choose the archery department where he could scout the surroundings.

Even so, I’m not directly helpful in battle.

It was because he chose Anna from the Faculty of Alchemy, who could be said to be similar to Grace in a way.

‘It’s definitely a very unbalanced combination… For us, no. For me now, this is the best choice.’

Soon after, Anna, who had been staring blankly at me, grasped the situation and began to quiver silently with her lips quivering.

why. It was because I didn’t have the courage to say a single word and didn’t spit it out.

So, when I pressed her again,

“no?”

She shook her head with a slightly weeping look on her face.

One is because I feel sorry for myself that I can’t even say a word like that.

One is to resent me for taking myself, an alchemy student, to a combat mission.

“no….”

With this.

The party was complete with all-purpose potions and all-around doping agents.

* * * *

After me and Ian chose all the parties, the rest of the members talked about each other and organized the party.

all 4 people.

Irene takes out a bundle of papers from her desk drawer after confirming that everyone has gathered in groups of four except for the party of five who have to do office work.

“Then, the party is all set, I’ll assign you a mission. The duration is 10 days in total, and it’s a mission that only needs to be completed within 10 days, so you can do it when you’re free, and I don’t care if you start right away. Attendance is allowed for the student council mission during the mission period, so Don’t worry about that part.”

There was another reason why I made Grace come to my party instead of Ian’s, unlike the original story.

The reason Lily and I went through the main scenario was because of my hypothesis that it was the result of us taking away the main character and main heroine’s place.

The grounds were sufficient.

First of all, the similarity between Lily and the main heroine was the reason.

As a user of the same colorless magic, Lily was also a sub, but a heroine.

That’s why, in a situation where Selina couldn’t participate in the scenario, Lily was something worth using as a replacement, and I was also the head of the fencing department like Ian, so it must have been a very suitable replacement for them.

If so, we needed Grace because there was a strong possibility that the main scenario would appear again until we gave them the lead again.

That’s because she was a person who played that role very well in the main scenario of this student council mission.

Conversely, in this scenario, without her, it was close to impossible to achieve anything worthy of being called a success.

That is also the content of this main scenario.

“First of all, a berry party. It’s a mission to find out heretics in Triang Village.”

It was a very easy mission if there was a woman who could grasp the truth and lies of words.
