High School Hack and Slash Chapter 126 Part 2

They moved their legs toward the prefab clubroom building, which was also provided to the F-ranked clubs.

Naturally, all the while looking for prey.

「… There’s just no suitable prey, huh.」

「Almost all of them have become badge-less.」

The rules was that the club badges, which had been distributed to all members, had to be worn in a conspicuous place.

Naturally, there were also those who hid theirs, but they were all subjected to guidance and penalty by the duel committee members who appeared out of nowhere.

As their gazes swam around looking for badges in such a manner, they caught sight of a badge that was being displayed in an ostentatious manner.

It had a cute crest of crossed knife and fork, plus a fancy deformed wolf sticking out its tongue.

「By any chance, do you want to challenge me to a duel?」

A mysterious Doggy with a badge pinned on the tip of her tail, waving it around, approached the two with a squeak.

As the pair quickly averted their eyes, cold sweat was dripping from their foreheads.

「… N, no. You’ve got the wrong guy.」

「But you were looking this way.」

The mysterious Doggy Lady, who was a petite female student, peered into the faces of the boys, who were hanging their heads, from below.

Even though a non-discriminatory match was the rule this time, it was forbidden for the members of clubs that had already passed the qualifying round were to issue a duel challenge.

For better or worse, the reason for this was to prevent unfairness, but the rules being loose was just the usual matter.

「It, it’s just your imagination.」

Pressed by someone who was famous in a lot of ways in the academy, the boys were retreating, shaking their heads frantically.

「But, somehow, you’re making a face like you want to have a duel.」

「Y, you’ve got it wrong. The one I was looking at was… Yeah, ah, that guy. Hey, you! Come and have a duel with me!」

「Huh? Me?」

A female student who happened to be passing by tilted her head slightly, a half-eaten crepe in her hand.

Near the quasi-duel arena, a number of stalls had been set up to take advantage of the festivities.

It was a duel challenge issued without even checking for the presence of a badge, but fortunately, it seemed that she was a badge-holder.

「Well, I don’t mind, though. Rather, you seem to be a face I’ve seen somewhere before. Hmm~, welp, it doesn’t matter, I guess.」

「Mai-san. We are looking for Touma-san, though….」

「It’s fine, isn’t it? It’ll be done in a jiffy anyway, and somehow, I find that guy’s face irritating, you see.」

The other girl, letting out a sigh, pressed her fingers against her temples.

「Mai-chan, stealing someone else’s prey is not fair~」

「Ah, isn’t it Doggy-chan-senpai? Sorry, sorry, I’ll give you this crepe, okay.」

「Mu. It can’t be helped.」

Handing the half-eaten crepe to the Doggy Lady, who tottered over in protest, the girl cracked her knuckles.

She then grinned brightly at the boy, the former member of Wild Bunch, who had challenged her to a duel.

「Now then, let’s do it, shall we? I’ll make you tremble and cry and pee your pants.」

◇ ◇ ◇

「Match! Qualifying points shall hereby be added to the『Hero Group (Bravers)』.」

「Yoshaaa!」

Cheers could be heard from the quasi-duel arena set up in the courtyard.

The one who was raising his fist in the air on the stage was a large boy carrying a battle-ax.

However, the cheers were not directed at him, but at a man of delicate figure, the next duel participant.

「Hahh, women truly are such fangirls. Good graciousness.」

「What’s it? Are you by any chance jealous? Sigh, know your place, so they say, Eiji. Between you and Hero-sama, the difference is like between the moon and a turtle… Haan!」

「Oh, how’s the taste of the turtle head, huh?」

「Hyaa, Eiji, so suddenly….」

Behind Ruruka, who rocked her ass while letting out a flirtatious voice, Eiji, with his trousers down, was shaking his hips.

The club they belonged to, the『Foolish Wise Men (Donquixote)』, had already passed the qualifying round.

「Lulu-kou’s ass condition is just the best. It’s completely become accustomed to me.」

「Hyaa, hnn, that’s because every day, you do tons of lewd things to me, Eiji….」

「Isn’t that only natural? I mean, you’re my woman, after all.」

Eiji was humming a tune as he held Ruruka’s ass in his arms.

「… I can’t stand to watch all those flirting anymore.」

「Ahaha. Erika can’t be honest with herself in front of others, after all.」

「Huh?! Wh, what are you talking about, you lowly Amane?!」

Her words were thorny, but Erika, who was holding Amane’s arm in hers, did not try to get away from him.

The evaluation of her being unable to be honest with herself in front of others was dubious.

However, Erika was a holder of a special class that despite the fact that it was of the『Arts User (Magi)』 branching, it boasted no combat power.

So she was being carefully safeguarded so as not to get dragged into the matches.

Though, the『Foolish Wise Men (Donquixote)』 was an F-ranked club formed after the previous tournament.

There was no reason for them to be specifically targeted in this point scramble competition.

And then, the couple who were flirting with each other in an ostentatious manner were giving off an air that made it hard for others to approach them.

「For the time being, we’ve got C rank in the bag, but… As expected, you’d like to have a B-ranked club room, wouldn’t you~?」

「I guess so. When it comes to a prefab club room, it really feels like a storage room, after all.」

Shou and Byakuya, both members of the Foolish Wise Men club as well as boys from the first year third group, were also sitting on the adjacent bench.

Their respective partners, Nana and Kyouko, were also next to them, waiting upon them.

They were girls who had once parasitized Amane in their dungeon conquest, but since forming their current party, they had been trained in a Spartan manner and had grown up to be full-fledged dungeon attackers.

And then, their somewhat intolerable natures had also been firmly disciplined by their respective partners.

「Say… Haku-kun. I want a reward too….」

「Hmm~, you sure are a lewd girl of no perseverance, aren’t you, Nana?」

「That’s because you’ve turned me into such a girl, Haku-kun.」

Nana, leaning against Byakuya with melty and moist eyes, twisted her thighs together.

Nana, who had been subjected to a bit of perverted and passionate discipline, was dependent on Byakuya both physically and mentally.

「But still, the Hero Group (those guys), for someone who had put on airs and picked a fight with us, they sure as hell have been completely ignoring us. We look like fools for waiting for them, no?」

「You’re strangely serious, aren’t you, Shou?」

As Kyoko covered her mouth and smiled cheek to cheek at him, Shou, scratching his head, looked up at the sky.

「I think it can’t be helped. The other side is C-ranked, while we’re just a newly established F-ranked club, after all. They must also be desperate to earn points to pass the qualifying round. We could have just made our move first and made them fail the qualifying round, though.」

Under the qualifying round system this time, if a lower-ranked club were to challenge a higher-ranked club to a duel time and again, it was possible to make them fail the qualifying round.

Though, considering the possibility of retaliation later on, everyone would have to think twice before carrying out such a thing, unless they were people with a lot of guts, that was it.

Including such means, these were rules settings whose purpose was to cause an upset in the tournament.

「That would make it, how should I put it, boring, wouldn’t it?」

「Fufufu, I love that self-confident part of you, Shou.」

「I have no such a thing as confidence from the start. There’s a monster living in our classroom that won’t let us harbor that kind of misunderstanding, after all.」

As Kyouko tilted her head slightly, Shou smiled wryly.

「You’ll understand once you get to see it, too. Something that makes your asshole go *squeeze*.」

「Alright, alright. The idiotic couple making out over there. Listen to what Amane’s saying.」

「… Eri, are you really one to say that?」

Kyouko rolled her eyes at Erika, who was snuggled up closely to Amane.

「Oh. What’s up, Vice-prez?」

「Err, you see. It’s about the Senpais who lent us their names alone when we established the club, but….」

「Ah, those excessively sexy big sisters, right?」

In order to establish a club, there was a need to gather at least ten club members.

The main members of the『Foolish Wise Men (Donquixote)』 were the eight present here, but the rest of the number-juggling members were ghost members that Amane had scouted.

Ten senior female students.

Even his partner, Erika, was put off before she could feel jealous.

「Ahaha. Amanecchi is very popular with the older girls, after all.」

「P, please stop it. Byakuya-kun. Erika is scary, after all.」

Not only Amane, Eiji and the others had also done what had to be done, but the relationship was that of them getting conversely overwhelmed.

Naturally, their partners had conspired and acted as a bulwark, but they were baffled by the senior girls who were all woozy, impossible to tell what they had in their minds.

「But for better or worse, the fact is that we’ve hijacked the club room. So I don’t think it’s a good idea to kick the Senpais out at this point, do you?」

The『Foolish Wise Men (Donquixote)』, who had annexed and absorbed those girls into themselves after having the club to which they used to belong disbanded, had also taken over the club room as they were.

「It, it’s not like I’m asking you to kick them out or anything.」

「I know. Erika is very kind, after all.」

「Alright, alright. Save your flirting for later, okay. So what’s it with the Senpais?」

Amane – having his arm, which was being hugged by the red-faced Erika, pinched – nodded to Kyouko, who let out a sigh.

「Yes. Up until now, they’ve been ghost members who are registered in name only, but I’m wondering if we could have the Senpais become full-fledged members of the club as well, or something.」

「… So that’s how it is. I have no objection to the idea, but I think you should properly listen to their opinions as well. There’s also the possibility that the slashing and striking in the dungeon is not to their liking, after all.」

「Well. Why not? It was originally a club created by Amane anyway.」

Shou briskly stroked Kyoko’s head as she gave him cold advice.

「I guess so. Just because you aren’t cared for by your man, eliminating other women around him is proof that you’re a small-chested… ah, sorry, sorry, I mean, a narrow-minded person, after all.」

「… Eriii, lend me your cheek for a bit.」

Kyouko, who boasted a modest bulge compared to the others, was smiling with a vein popping on her temples.
