 The academy building was divided into several buildings according to its use.

 The Classroom Building, where the students endeavored in study, was the largest building with classes for year one through five.

 Next to the Classroom Building was the Special Classroom Building, and the Student Cafeteria, which many students utilized not only for lunch but also for dinner.

 The large Purchasing Department, located near the entrance to the school, was a trait that couldn’t be found in other schools.

 The Clock Tower, which could be seen from anywhere in the school, and the Library, which was located at the end of the beautifully landscaped garden, were showcased even in the school’s public pamphlet.

 It was small in scale, but the Cathedral, which boasted beautiful structural craftsmanship, was a place for students to seek solace.

 The Gymnasium was small compared to the size of the academy and was mainly used as an auditorium for assembly.

 Instead, the Martial Arts Hall, which housed the training grounds for swordsmanship and various other martial arts, boasted a magnificent structure.

 There was also the Health and Medical Care Building, which was more well-equipped than the ones in normal schools.

 This facility was not of the scale of a single room staffed by a single school nurse, but rather could be said to be a hospital staffed by multiple doctors with medical qualifications.

 As there was also a hospitalization facility installed, one could see that they were sparing nothing at their disposal in their support for the students.

 Ostensibly.

 A number of expensive, state-of-the-art equipment, not even installed in a normal university hospital, was used to examine and research the various items produced inside the dungeon from the perspective of modern science.

 At the same time, research was being conducted on the lost magialogy that had been handed down in Japan since ancient times, but the sign of progress had yet to rise.

 The research department, set up in the depth of the health care building, was enclosed with a thick lead shield to protect the facility from the wide area noise jamming of unknown cause as well as the miasma that was believed to be leaking from Rashōmon.

… Damn it, lowly useless scholars, acting so high and mighty.

 Seiichi, being driven out of the hatch that was akin to the door of a nuclear bomb shelter, cursed.

 Don’t make us do something useless, he crumpled the print out, which was handed over to him along with such a warning, into a ball and threw it away.

It would make things way easier should anything have come up, though.

 Looking up at the sky in a seemingly irked expression, Seiichi moved his legs not toward the classroom building, but toward the Supreme Building located next to the library by the end of the park.

 Unlike the classroom building which was of a reinforced wooden school building, the academy building for the supreme class students, who were nastily pretentious according to Seiichi, was of a brickwork.

 He casually checked his surroundings and stepped into the school building through the service entrance.

 If a student from the general class were to enter the supreme class building from the front, he or she would be beaten down without question.

 Seiichi, who had already learned this unspoken rule with his body, briskly passed through the corridor and arrived in front of the student council room located in the supreme class building.

 As was customary, the student council of Toyoashihara Academy and its officers were elected from the supreme class students.

 As a voice echoed from beyond the door that he knocked in reluctance, Seiichi floated a faint smile and walked in.

Sup, pardon the intrusion.

I believe I’ve told you before to stop with that ridiculous greeting, haven’t I?

 A flat and rigid voice came from beyond a large, heavy mahogany desk.

 One could sense more of coldness rather than coolness from the lack of emotion in the voice.

My bad. Since I was born in a lowborn family.

 Laughing frivolously, Seiichi threw his butt on the sofa arranged on a low long table that was placed in front of the president’s desk.

 The president, dressed in an old-style gakuran uniform with a neatly fastened collar, looked up from the papers on the table.

 He was the student council president despite being a second year student, but at Toyoashihara Academy, where there were no student voting elections, the position of president was decided through recommendation.

 It was customary for the 『son of the most politically influential figure in the outside world among the current students to be elected, and at the same time, it was a place where younglings of the same generation, who would continue to have relationships in the same world even after graduation, could engage in raw political games.

 It was said to be the microcosm of real life, where the influence and connections of their family were intricately intertwined.

Report at once.

Yeah, yeah. Rather, I’ve said it before, but I think you are probably just harboring some misunderstandings about that guy.

You’re not the one to judge it.

 Facing someone who truthfully speaking didn’t want to talk with him, let alone that, he didn’t even disguise his revulsion at breathing the same air as him, Seiichi proceeded with his report that held no depth whatsoever while still plastering a faint smile on his face.

 As for the background check investigation written on the documents, he had already verified it with the documents provided by the academy.

 There appeared to be some problems in his family’s situation, but he was an ordinary person with nothing unusual about him.

 There were no traces of contact with any problematic ideological groups, nor was there any period of time when his identity was obscure.

 Even so, the reason why the individual named Funasaka Touma was placed on the list of those who needed to be monitored was because the subject who recommended him to the academy was viewed as a problem.

Mad Man Oni – Berserk Ogre, was it? That’s one heck of a chuuni nickname, but in the end he’s just a graduate from the general class, isn’t he?

 The one who once stood at high altitude and was referred to with such a nickname was Touma’s middle school homeroom teacher.

 The general class students who were sent to Toyashihara Academy were those who were recommended by graduates scattered across the country.

 The recommender would receive a bonus as a pension, but there were certain conditions that must be met for someone to be eligible for recommendation.

 To describe the complicated conditions in one sentence, the nominee must be 『someone whose presence or absence would not cause any problem.

 Due to the circumstances of the academy, there was a minimum number of new student that ought to be reached no matter what, but there was a limit to the document screening system

 The only reason why Touma was spotted was because he was the first student recommended by the recommender known as Berserk Ogre since his graduation.

Something like that, it doesn’t seem like he’s been in contact with anyone, and there’s also no trace of him colluding with anyone in the academy. There’s no point in investigating any further, is there?

I see.

 This was not meant to say that he agreed with Seiichi’s words, but was merely a reaction to his report.

 Just as he previously said, he hadn’t the slightest intention of considering Seiichi’s opinions at all.

 This had always been the case up until now.

In short, you see. Doesn’t that mean what I’ve been doing is meaningless?

And, what of it?

 In the end, he returned his gaze to the documents on the table without taking a glance at Seiichi even once.

 That was something he’d already known from the beginning.

 There was also no particular problem in the documents that he received in no considerable time at all from the detective agency, utilizing his authority that could be leveraged even outside the academy.

 For him, this was no more than a test case.

 It was no more than a rehearsal for when he ascended to a position where he could employ even more people in the future.

The heck is that, please don’t make me do something pointless.

Pointless, huh…. Considering all that, you seem to be having fun as you please there, don’t you?

You! You shitty big bro!

 Just as Seiichi realized the fact that he’d also been monitored, he froze in a posture of half-rising to his feet.

 Splinters of broken and scattered tea cup as well as drops of the still remaining black tea fell from Seiichi’s head.

You have no right to call me brother. Know your place.

… Yea, yea. I understand my position very well.

 Wiping the tea dripping from his bangs, Seiichi remained smiling frivolously at his brother from a different mother.

 His eyes were gloomy and dull.
