Chapter 42

While invading, Arisu and Tamaki’s classroom is also liberated from the orcs . Even though they saw their classmates’ bodies, the 2 of them only clasped their hands together and prayed for a while .

「Now there is no time for us to cry . 」

Tamaki said in a low tone, and hugged Arisu who is a bit down .

「Let’s take revenge together, Arisu . 」

「Okay . 」

From the classroom at the south, you can see the courtyard from the railing . Although the campfire has extinguished, but beside the small mountain made from corpse, there are still about 20 orcs which are in tip top condition lazing around .

Tamaki is right, we cannot waste time here .

Luckily at this time, because of the influence from the light, the courtyard should not be able to see what is in the classroom clearly .

Even so, if we continue staying around, there is no telling what may happen . Before the orcs notice us, we left the classroom .

After that, we spent roughly 20 minutes suppressing the level 1 and basement of the main school building .

We saved 3 girls on level 1 and another in the basement, a total of 4 person .

Until now, we killed a total of 18 small fry orcs and 2 elite orcs .

「I want to ask you all to bring the girls we saved back to the Cultivating Centre first . 」

I instructed Shiki-san .

「If there are more survivors, we should also consider how we can move them . 」

Even if the girls we saved took Arisu’s treatment, they are still very tired, and unable to even stand up .

This also can’t be helped, they had spent a whole day under the violence of the orcs .

「I understand, all of you should be careful . 」

Shiki-san and the others carried the powerless girls and left through the broken window .

Okay—— I turned to face Arisu and everyone . From their colours of the faces, they do not seem to be tired .

「By the way, if you want to go to the toilet, you should do it now . 」

「I will not pee in my pants!」

Tamaki growled out like a wild dog .

「Roar~ Kazu-san really have no tact, right, Arisu . 」

「Argh……」

Arisu looked at me with some hesitation . What is it, my little angel, feel free to praise me .

「Kazu-san, yo . . you only wanted to see Tamaki’s perplexed expression right? 」

Thank you for giving me sentence that was harsher than I have expected .

I shrugged my shoulders, like changing the topic to the nearby stairs and said:「Go, to the second storey . 」

There are stairs at the 2 ends of the school building that can lead from level 1 to level 2, we are currently near the stairs on the left side .

The crow that went to investigate the stairs to level 2 had already came back .

According to the crow’s report, there are a few orcs gathering along the corridor on level 2 .

This is a bad news, as we will be discovered once we walked up the stairs .

I thought while I was biting the CalorieMate that I took from the bag .

Or we could go outside first, then climb the railings up to level 2 . Our arm strength has risen due to 《Mighty Arm》, so this method should succeed . And with 《Silent Field》, we will not make any noise .

But this method is based on a premise—— which is that our hands must be empty .

Arisu’s iron spear and Tamaki’s giant axe are big and heavy, it would be tough bringing these 2 weapons to climb up to level 2 .

Of course we could let someone climb up first then throw a rope down…… But in such a situation, that person is akin to being completely defenseless in an enemy territory, which I feel that the risk is too big .

「Mia, how about 《Path Wall》?」

Rank 4 Earth Magic 《Path Wall》 is like how it is said, it is a magic that can open a hole on a wall . In other words, it can allow one to sneak past a wall without being discovered, most suited for a bank robbery .

As for the hole that was created with magic, it seems that it will disappear after a certain period of time .

「It is fine using《Path Wall》on the ceiling, but without a ladder, we can’t climb up . 」

「If we use 《High Jump》, can we reach?」

Rank 2 Wind Magic 《High Jump》 can greatly increase jumping power, as long as there is no weight on the body, it can let a person jump up to a tree branch .

「It should be possible, but we have to reach level 2 in a try . 」

「Right, if the classroom above has orcs, then it will be dangerous when the landing fails . 」

If they are just small fry orcs, they it is fine, but if we fall in front of an elite orc…… Even if Tamaki’s skill rank is 5, I feel that it will be dangerous .

「To find ladders, there is no need to get back to the Cultivating Centre…… There should be some ladders that are commonly used somewhere in the campus?」

「That, Kazu-san . Things that take up a lot of space like ladders, in the middle school section, we always put them in the storeroom in front of the courtyard . . 」

Arisu said it with a face of apology . I see, currently it is filled with orcs at the courtyard, even if we have raised a few levels, facing 20 at once is still very tough .

And if we make trouble in the courtyard, the orcs on level 2 and 3 will discover our presence . Then the covert actions that we made painstakingly, will be wasted .

Okay, what should we do, I crossed my hands and thought .

「Right, there is a magic in Wind Magic that can make a person invisible . 」

「《Invisibility》 is a Rank 3 Wind Magic, I can’t use it yet . 」

Indeed, but Tamaki and Mia has only 30 exp to next level, which means that we only have to defeat 2 more ordinary orcs .

Mia has 1 skill point left, so as long as she level up, then she can raise Wind Magic to Rank 3 . Though we have to take a longer route…… should we go and gain some exp?

I felt that this seems like an single player RPG . Hmm, but it is better to gain some exp . I let the crow fly outside and search for some orcs that are alone and near the school building .

Before long, the crow came back to report . Situated behind the shoe cabinets on the right side side of the school building, there are 2 orcs . From the courtyard, it seemed to be a blind spot . This building has 2 entrances . From our position, the crow is talking about the shoe cabinets that are within that entrance which is the furthest away from us .

「I understand, I will finish them off now!」

Tamaki finished with a happy tone, and rushed out with her giant axe . Mia chased after, and casted 《Silent Field》 for her .

After roughly about 2 minutes, we came to the white room and listen to the report that Tamaki and Mia leveled up .

◆ ◆ ◆

We gathered in the white room . With this, the 2 of their levels is now 8 .

「Ah, and, Kazu-san, I found a surviving girl . 」

「With the orcs?」

There are also girls captured in that sort of place? Although it is a bit regretful, but my heart seemed to be numbed, As long as she survived then she should be thankful—— I had already thought like that, separating my emotions and thoughts .

If it is possible, I hope that the survivors will become our power in the battlefield .

I hope that the person will began from tomorrow, to fight for the sake of surviving . Even if it is just one more person, gathering more companions, is also one of the aims of attacking the main school building . But Tamaki shook her head .

「No, that girl was hiding in the cabinet that stored the cleaning tools near the shoe cabinet . And Arisu, she is Sumire . 」

「Oh~Sumire-chan is still alive? That’s great!」

Arisu revealed a smile that was a vibrant as a flower blooming . Ah, they are friends?

「Ah—— in other words, that girl called Sumire is fine…… am I right?」

「Mmm! She is very afraid, so she has been quietly hiding there since yesterday . 」

Tamaki happily reported .

「Then, because she could not come out the whole of yesterday, so she peed her pants!」

「Why are you so happy about reporting that someone has peed her pants……」

「Eh~ didn’t Kazu-san like girls peeing in their pants?」

I looked at Arisu and Mia while speechless, and the 2 of them kept nodding their heads .

「I do not have that sort of interest . 」

「Eh—— there is nothing wrong with this . Kazu-san is a guy, having one or two perverted interest is also natural! I don’t mind it at all!」

Oi oi, why is it only on this matter, that you seems like a very understanding girl? Arisu blushed, and glanced at me without a word .

No, you are mistaken . I am perfectly normal, that is nothing but Tamaki’s delusion .

「Arisu, believe me . 」

「Is it better for me to leak as well?」

Arisu held her breath while blushing, filling her abdomen with strength . What are you saying and doing?

Mia lightly patted Arisu’s shoulders, and shook her head gently .

「No, not like that . It must be like desperately enduring but yet『no I can’t, I am going to pee, don’t look——』, then shuu and peed out . 」

「You don’t need to say those excessive stuff . 」

I pulled Mia away from Arisu . Really, this girl has a bad influence on Arisu’s education .

No, Arisu is older than her .

「Back to topic, that girl called Sumire, can she walk?」

「Probably so . Ah, but at that time I was very nervous, so I did not speak with Sumire-chan, so I do not know the exact details . 」

「Why?」

「Because there is 《Silent Field》 . 」

Ah right—— I face-palmed . The area around Tamaki, is under the effect of the silent field .

「If that is so, how do you know she has been hiding there since yesterday?」

「That part is by charading . 」

That is what we called linked by hearts—— Tamaki said it jokingly . I see, they have a good relationship .

「Then, it is better to let her hide a bit longer…… No, that should be pretty hard . 」

I do not wish to spent too much time attacking the main school building . From my view, decrease the number of the enemies moderately, at least confirm that the Cultivating Centre will be safe until tomorrow morning, and that will be fine .

I hope that we can retreat before the general orc and that beast-like monster appears .

Although I thought so, but asking the girl who was saved to endure a bit more is kind of cruel .

「Anyway, can you bring her over first?」

「Mmm, I understand . Then again, which one do you want?」

「Which?」

「Should I bring her to the toilet to change then come over, or just bring her directly over in her soaked pants?」

I squinted, staring at Tamaki unhappily .

「Let her change her clothes first . 」

「Yes yes——」

I sighed .

「I will use the transceiver to contact with Shiki-san . 」

Okay, the direction has been confirmed, next is regarding the use of the skill points……

「Mia is of course raising her Wind Magic to Rank 3 . As for Tamaki…… Since your Sword Skill can be raised to Rank 5, then we will do that?」

「Mmm, I feel that it’s very good . Great—— my skill rank is finally above Arisu’s, I am number 1!」

「Congrats, Tamaki . 」

Arisu congrated Tamaki directly . Aiya, Arisu is really a good kid, she is an angel .

Then again, Tamaki is really…

「Wh . . what, why did Kazu-san show that sort of expression? It is as though I am an idiot who don’t know how to see the situation……」

「You knew?」

Tamaki pouted, showing her displease .

「Kazu-san is too much! Hey, Arisu, do you feel so too?」

Arisu revealed a troubled smile and looked at me .

「Reprimanding is also an expression of friendship . 」

「Argh, well, but I will not be angry at Tamaki……」

「Yes yes yes, it is fine, Kazu-san . I am best friends with Arisu!」

「Mmm—— forget it, just don’t be too carried away . 」

「I wouldn’t be like that, my character is one that is very cautious, right—— Arisu!」

「Argh, this……」

My eyes met with Arisu’s, then she slowly turned away .

「Only good friends will understand each other well . 」

「Oh~ what, I am obviously cautious okay? Even during exams I would not forget to write my name . 」

「Such a thing like forgetting to write your name is something that will not happen even in a lifetime?」

「Tamaki will have such a time every year……」

Argh, mmm——

Tamaki: Level 8 Sword Skill 4 → 5／Physical 1 Skill Point 5 → 0Mia: Level 8 Earth Magic 4／Wind Magic 2 → 3 Skill Point 3 → 0

Even though there is some unease, we still left the white room . ◆ ◆ ◆

After returning back to the original place from the white room, I opened the transceiver, but Shiki-san did not reply . Ah—— that’s right, with the forest in between, they should not be able to receive radio waves .

Other than that, distance is another problem, this transceiver is really useless .

As I was considering such matters, Tamaki brought a girl back .
