102. Abnormality and White Lily Academy [3]

Although two weeks is somewhat of a short period, hearing I will be transferring to White Lily Academy, made me refuse immediately.

「No, no, no… that’s a joke, right? In the first place, White Lily Academy is a girls’ school, isn’t it? 」

「I would never make such a boring joke. Sure, you’re right. White Lily Academy is a girls’ school. However, there’s no problem with that.」

「No problem?」

A male student moving into a girls’ school. There is nothing but problems no matter how you think about it.

「It’s not known to the general public yet, but White Lily Academy is aiming to co-ed in a few years. Well, in other words, you’re the『first model case』.」

「I-Is that so?」

This is the first I’m hearing of it.

「But… am I really suitable for such important model case?」

Honestly, I think there are more suitable people for the job.

「Hmm, how do I say this? No one is more qualified than you in this matter. Seeing as how you’re a『monster of reason』, I can send you forth with peace of mind.」

「A monster of reason?」I asked, puzzled.

「Fufu, living under the same roof with the extremely beautiful girl, Ria Vesteria – not to mention the master-slave relationship, yet you haven’t made a move on her. What else can someone call you, but a “monster of reason”?」

「M-Make a move? O-Of course I wouldn’t. That isn’t normal!」I raised my voice in protest, as my cheeks turned red.

「Hahaha, well, even if it’s a joke right now, all the students over there are so-called『Ladies』from high-profile families. They have little immunity to men. So, don’t you think a gentleman like you is the right person for the model case?」

「Is that so?」

That still doesn’t make it any less troubling.

「Moreover, Idol seemed eager for your transfer. The director of the academy is also very welcoming to you.」

「Idol-san?」

「Aa, yes. I am told she seems to be quite obsessed about you. Apparently, she had been replaying the recordings of all your matches in the Sword King Festival and is burning with revenge.」

「Aha, ha. That’s scary…」

The next time I fight her, it’s going to be much more fierce.

After finishing the general explanation, sensei exhaled greatly.

「Well, that is why… What do you think? If you really don’t want to, I can call and refuse the model case proposal right away.」

Apparently, I still have a choice in this matter.

「This is not an easy decision…」

Do I go to the Ice King Academy with everyone?

Or do I go to White Lily Academy by myself?

It’s difficult to choose one.

(Training with Sid-san is very attractive. But I don’t know if I’ll ever get the opportunity to train with Idol-san…)

However, White Lily Academy is a girls’ school.

It will be different from the co-ed Thousand Blade Academy and Ice King Academy.

(…How troubling.)

As I was in the middle of wracking my brain,
「Well, if we were to talk about the practical profits without covering them up – it would be most helpful for Thousand Blade Academy if you transferred there. Speaking of White Lily Academy, it is a famous powerhouse academy. If we can make connections with them, we will be able to raise the level of our students in the form of an exchange program in the future.」Leia-sensei said.

「…I see.」

There seems to be a practical profit for Thousand Blade Academy, too.

「And this isn’t a bad deal for you either, is it? It’s a competitive society, the same as ours, or even more. In particular, I have heard that the『ability measurement』that is carried out every month is very exciting. Different classes, environments, and friends; gaining diverse experiences will lead to great growth as a swordsman.」

Certainly… it’s not a bad deal for me either.

(There were many excellent swordsmen besides Idol-san at White Lily Academy…)

The two female swordsmen who defeated Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai at the Sword King Festival.

Although defeated by Sebas-san, Lily Gonzalez also emitted tremendous pressure.

There will surely be a lot of things to learn from them.

「Okay. It’s a great opportunity, so I’ve decided on transferring to White Lily Academy!」

「Oh, that’s great! I’ll get in touch with their director. You should take a quick look through this brochure by tomorrow.」sensei said, and handed the enrollment guidebook of White Lily Academy.

「Yes, I understand.」

Thus, I decided to attend White Lily Academy where『Prodigy』Idol Luxmaria-san belongs, for a short period of about two weeks.

■

The next day.

I was standing at the main gate of White Lily Academy with Ria and Rose.

「It was pretty close to Thousand Blade Academy」I whispered to myself.

「Un, has a very fresh feel to it!」

「Aa, it’s not bad.」

The two were satisfied.

(…Even so, I never thought I’d come with Ria and Rose.)

Yesterday, after talking with Leia-sensei, I went to the hospital where they were hospitalized.

As Ria and Rose confirmed my safety, they patted their chests with relief, and were very surprised to see my black-and-white hair.

Then, I told them about moving into White Lily Academy, but – “We can’t let you go alone to a place crawling with women!” they said, in unison.

After that, Ria and Rose immediately negotiated with sensei and obtained permission to transfer.

(…Nonetheless, this is amazing.)

I looked up at the main academy building in front of me.

The foundation was made of white stone.

The roof, which was covered with light navy blue tiles, was as steep as a tower on all four sides. Atmosphere of dignity hung over it.

Luxurious chairs and desks were placed on the terrace.

(…It’s almost like a castle.)

As the three of us were looking up at the elegant academy building, the surroundings became noisy.

「W-Why did they come to White Lily Academy..?」

「And that person is… AllenRodore, who defeated onee-sama.」

「W-Why on earth did they come here?」

As we were dressed in the uniform of Thousand Blade Academy, it seems to have made us stand out a little.

「Ria, Rose. Let’s go say hello to the director.」

「Okay.」

「I agree.」

After that, I decided to step into White Lily Academy, relying on the enrollment guide that I had read in advance.

As soon as I entered the main academy building in front of me,

「Welcome, Allen… also Ria and Rose, I’m guessing」Idol-san welcomed us.

Idol Luxmaria.

Azure pupils which almost seemed transparent.

Long, beautiful, pure white hair that was half-up.

Noble facial features as though sculpted.

Slender body.

Snow white skin.

Dressed in the White Lily Academy uniform which is a blue accent on a white fabric.

「Good morning, Idol-san.」

「Nice to meet you. I am Ria-Vesteria. It’s only a short time, but let’s get along with each other.」

「I’m Rose Valencia. Hello.」

As the three of us greeted her,

「…Ah. I am Idol Luxmaria. Regards.」

Idol-san was a second late to realise and slowly began to introduce herself.

(…As usual, she’s a person who lives in her own world.)

As I absentmindedly thought about that,

「-Come. I’ll show you around the academy building」Idol-san said, and started walking down the hallways.

「Ah, sorry. I’m happy to hear that, but I’m supposed to greet the director first.」I gently turned her down.

「It’s okay, the director asked me to show you around. And that thing always comes to academy only around lunch time」she said, nodding

「Oh, I see.」

「Yes. That thing is simply a “decoration”.」

「I-I see…」

Apparently, the directors of Five Academy have a tendency to slack off.

「So, leave it to me.」

「Yes, then, we’ll be in your care.」

We accepted the guidance of Idol-san and looked around the facilities of the academy buildings.

Vast training grounds, complete training supplies, and an amazing number of spirit swords and practice-swing swords.

(The quality of the facilities is the same as that of Thousand Blade Academy – No, it’s higher than that.)

As expected, of one of the Five Academy, White Lily Academy.

I was a little worried about the change of clothes and the toilets, but those seem to have already been prepared for the male teachers here, so there’s no problem on that front.

At the moment, there seems to be no inconvenience to academy life.

「The rest of the facilities are all about the same… Okay?」

Idol-san, who guided us through the main academy building from the first floor to the third floor, said while tilting her head.

「Yes. Thanks to you, I’ve got a general idea.」

「Glad to hear that. Then, I will show you the gymnasium and the arts building next.」

「Yes, please.」

We left the main academy building, following after Idol-san.

Just as we were leaving the main entrance of the academy building and moving to the gymnasium, there was some commotion at the main gate.

「Tch… Don’t get in my way. I’ll kill you!」

「Move out of the way! Or be prepared to receive divine punishment!」

Harsh voice belonging to two men.

「Hey, you guys! Calm down!」

「People who don’t have a school permit can’t enter!」

Voices of two guards trying to pacify the situation.

There was a considerable distance from here to the main gate, but the exchange was heated to the extent that the conversation could be heard all the way over to us.

「Tch, so noisy… I told you to get out of the way!」

「Gua?!」

Immediately after the loud yelling, the guards were blown away.

At that moment, an unpleasant thought crossed my mind.

「No way. Is it the Black Organization again?!」

They failed to kidnap Ria.

It would not be surprising if they tried again.

「Let’s go, Allen!」

「This time, I will have my revenge!」

「I’ll go too!」

The four of us pulled out our sword and immediately headed to the main gate.

And the person who was raging there —

「You bastards. You’ve got some nerve to rob Allen from the Ice King Academy… Aa?!」

「Give me back Allen-sama! What kind of person do you think you are, snatching away God?!」

It was Sid Euclius and Cain Material. First-year students of Ice King Academy.

「Sid-san?! Cain-san?!」

As I stared in wonder at the unexpected culprits,

「Bastard, Allen! Quit this boring charade and return to Ice King Academy!」

「God! You are alright!」

The two noticed me and started hurling nonsense.

「Eh, umm…」

I was confused as to how to respond.

「We are the ones who acquired Allen first. I won’t give him to you.」

Idol-san stood in front of me and declared.

「Aa? I don’t care whether you’re called『Prodigy』or what not, but if you get carried away, I’ll bloody kill you!」

「『Acquired』!? God belongs to everyone! That is blasphemous, Idol Luxmaria!」

Sid-san raised his eyebrows, and Cain-san launched his own theory to attack Idol-san.

(At this rate, it’ll get worse…)

Deciding that, I immediately jumped in between them.

「L-Let’s settle down for now! First of all, how about everyone calm down and talk this through?」

When I suggested as such, they both shot a glance at me, and faced each other again.

「Give him to me.」

「No.」

The negotiations between Sid-san and Idol-san broke down in two seconds.

Their communication skills were too poor.

Then the next moment,

「Eat away -〈Vanargand〉!」

「Fill up -〈Neba Glome〉!」

Sid-san, who is short-tempered, and Idol-san, who is surprisingly belligerent, brought out their soul dress at the same time.

Extreme cold air and azure lightning surged out, as they stared down each other fiercely.

(Oi, Oi, Oi… this is no joking matter!)

If these two went all out at this place, White Lily Academy might collapse.

「…W-Wait a minute!」

The moment I tried to stop them, jet-black darkness covered the whole of White Lily Academy.

「What, the?! This absurd output!」

「Allen, just how far have you?」

Sid-san and Idol-san widened their eyes, and locked on me.

「…E-Eh?」

I tried to calm them down, while trying to suppress the unexpected amount of darkness that gushed out from my body.

「Well, umm… Why don’t we talk a little more calmly?」
