“Do you know how much trouble the student council is in right now because of you? They’re short on manpower!”

The Latina scolded me in an annoyed tone.

Even while nagging, she was busy looking at the documents.

Beatus’ festival is considered by many to be the largest event in the empire. As I was a member of the student council that coordinated and was in charge of the entire process, it was probably the busiest time.

In fact, the dark circles under Latina’s eyes seem to have gotten worse.

She narrowed her eyes and said while pressing her forehead.

“You know that today’s new student orientation involves courage training, right? Your role is as a ghost.”

“Is this festival again with that same concept? I was expecting something a bit fresh.”

“…I agree with that. Isn’t it annoying to hear those words coming out of your mouth again?”

Rarely did a Latina agree with my opinion.

At this point, we are at the beginning of Act 1.

The main content of the first act is that the main character, Jenna, goes through freshman orientation and a random incident occurs during courage training.

In particular, in the highlight of the first act, there are plenty of events that allow you to clearly feel the personality of our protagonist, Jenna, who is a bit pushy but very personable.

Thanks to that, I saved 23,000 hours.

“Anyway, he’s a ghost. I don’t want to take on that role.”

“…That was originally planned to be the bird, or rather, that bastard, Laur.”

The Latina glared at me.

I easily avoided it.

The Latina ground her teeth as if she was offended by even mentioning the guy’s last name.

Cont’s sins are deep.

That guy got ‘dyased’ too.

In orientation for new students, ‘ghost’ refers to the role of a tagger who scares the chicks.

The courage training of the Beatus Festival is a long-standing tradition of the student council, and new students must navigate a beautiful but dark path to bring five flags.

of course.

“In the history of Beatus, there were only three students who succeeded in courage training.”

“…Don’t talk nonsense.”

One of them is a Latina walking with me.

Moreover, among successful people, she is especially famous.

Just 3 minutes. Because I completed the rough course and swept the flag in just 3 minutes. It was literally the speed of light.

But the reason she’s famous isn’t just because of her records.

“The legend of a student who fell down and covered his ears and cried for 30 minutes after running in 3 minutes…”

“I think you have about two tongues. Can I cut off just one?”

“I don’t believe in legends.”

Look at those bloody eyes. I can’t even joke around.

Even while walking down the street, the Latina continued to grumble.

Do you know what the atmosphere of the student council is like these days, how did your body change like that, and has there been any change in your state of mind these days?

When I answered half-heartedly, the Latina made a sullen expression.

While heading to the courage training site, wild new chicks appeared!

“Huh?! Senior Dyers!! Senior Latina!”

“Wait a minute, Jenna, go slow..!”

“That person is the former executioner of those rumors..? This is my first time seeing him in person..”

“You two are walking together with the student council… I wonder what kind of relationship you two have…”

They were whispering amongst themselves and the sight of Latina walking around seemed very interesting.

Thanks to this, Latina’s face was rotten.

Meanwhile, Jenna came running like a puppy that found its owner and stopped in front of me.

It’s so lively and nice.

“Miss Jenna. It’s been a while.”

“Ah, yes!”

Jenna bowed her head to the Latina and immediately spoke to me.

“Senior Dyers, what are you doing here?”

“We were talking about student council.”

“Hmm. I don’t think so. They get along well with the senior and the Latina senior! Hehe.”

The Latina’s complexion immediately crumpled at Jenna’s crazy remark while smiling naturally.

Well, from the perspective of freshmen, there is nothing as interesting as the love stories of seniors. The problem is that the other person is a Latina who hates me very much.

“Miss Jenna, that’s all a misunderstanding… If I had to put it that way, this man is like a trash can that you need to dispose of trash. There are times when even a trash can is useful.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jenna chuckled.

“Ah. Hehehe. You got dumped by Senior Dyers.”

Is it because of her mood that Jenna’s eyebrows seemed to twitch slightly after the Latina finished speaking?

“It’s that kind of relationship, so please don’t misunderstand.”

“yes!”

Jenna nodded faster than ever. However, there is something strange about the expression… it feels like a combination of refreshing and unpleasant.

Relying on feelings is a bad habit.

I erased the useless point from my head.

“Oh, wait a minute, sir.”

While I was organizing my thoughts, Jenna suddenly smiled and lifted the stone.

Looking at the guy’s sinister expression, I don’t think there’s anything out of the ordinary. I think I need to stop it.

Latina also widened her eyes and concentrated on her sudden action.

He cleared his throat for a moment, then pressed his thumb and middle finger on the pebble.

You can’t believe this guy.

“Hmm. Hmm! Expelled from school.”

“…….”

“…….”

“……Phew.”

“…are you laughing just now?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Really, don’t laugh, Latina.

And how could you do something like that after how well I treated you, Jenna?

I was very disappointed.

The Latina couldn’t help but laugh a little as she saw Jenna reenacting the same posture that knocked out Cont with a rock.

After finishing the reenactment, Jenna proudly squared her shoulders, looked at me, and held out her hand.

“It’s a victory handshake!”

“Jenna.”

“yes!”

She said, smiling innocently.

I held Jenna’s hand, my hand shaking.

I just gave it my strength.

“Ah, ah, ah! Senpai! Sorry! Cancel! Surrender!”

“It’s a shame.”

He couldn’t have been a very unpleasant junior.

.

Suddenly, I ended up tagging along with Jenna and her friends.

On the way to the courage training site, Jenna talked to Dyers non-stop.

“I also learned how to cook the food you cooked back then. I’ll cook it for you later.”

“It’s not bad. I’ll make it even tastier next time.”

Latina frowned upon hearing the contents. It was force majeure.

It wasn’t even funny.

‘When I asked him to cook, he mercilessly refused.’

“Senior. Senior. How about working out together again like we did back then?”

‘When I asked him to participate in a sports competition, he refused because he didn’t want to break his body.’

“That’s a good idea. Let’s try to arrange a date.”

For some reason, the longer Jenna spoke, the more cold the Latina’s face became.

If before, you looked at him like he was looking at expired food, now he’s looking at food waste that’s three weeks old.

The person who was so strict during the student council days shows an extremely soft attitude in front of Miss Jenna. That fact was quite disturbing and absurd at the same time.

It is not a low-level rational mind. I feel like I’m being discriminated against just as a person. A very unpleasant feeling.

He was someone who knew how to cook, exercise, and take pranks like that?

Then what about me? What am I? Why did you do that to me? What a duplicitous scum you are.

I feel a bit dissatisfied and bite my lower lip.

At the same time, I glare at him.

Yes and now. These are eyes whose inner thoughts cannot be known.

In fact, the reason he was brought into the role of courage training was not only due to a lack of manpower, but also for surveillance purposes.

If I were to commit suicide, I would be in trouble.

Because I found content in his diary that hinted at suicide. Even so, monitoring his personal life was essential.

“Latina. By the way, did you find my luggage?”

“…I’m sorry. I don’t have time because of the festival, but I will definitely find it for you.”

He was looking for his luggage, but his whereabouts were unknown, as if someone had stolen it.

“If it doesn’t work out, give up. It’s not that important.”

“But a promise is a promise. I will definitely keep it.”

I was relieved to hear that it wasn’t a very precious item, but I still had to find it quickly.

With that in mind, the group continued walking.

That’s how we arrived at the courage training site [Wailing Chick].

“wow…!”

.

The trees bathed in sunset light boast a subtle beauty.

Due to the festival, lights and street vendors are everywhere.

It’s a huge forest road with a lot to see now, but it’s different at night. This [Wailing Chick] is a scary place where all kinds of darkness lurk.

After taking the mask from Pur, I separated from my group and walked separately.

Before we knew it, the sunset had set and the forest was filled with darkness. It was time for action.

As I continued following the forest path, I saw a person wearing a mask.

“woah.”

“Riché.”

“Hey. It’s not working.”

She took off her mask. But what are you doing here?

“Are you also here because of a request from the student council?”

“Well, that’s right. Latina, her dark circles are down to her knees. How can you not help her?”

Saying that, Richet put on his Shinigami mask again and looked for a scapegoat. It’s a rare sight to see excitement.

“Hehe… There’s nothing more enjoyable than the screams of chicks that didn’t become chickens.”

“…It’s in bad taste.”

“So you’re not going to do it?”

Richie asked, moving his eyebrows.

How could it be fun to scare new students? It’s a shame that we can’t take care of newbies!

“Don’t involve me in that kind of hobby. If you’re a senior, you’ll be fine…”

“You boring guy. Either do it or you’re an old man.”

As he said that, Richet stuck out his tongue.

what the. It’s so childish.

“Hey hey. Shhh!”

I held my breath at her cries. A group of four freshmen were walking, relying on a single light.

Richet took advantage of his lightning movements and approached quickly.

And then he quietly ambushes them behind them and blurts out a word.

“woah.”

“Aaaah!”

“Aaaah!”

“Kwaaa

The chicks were distraught and scattered. She smiled for a while as if she was satisfied.

This bastard… as a senior, he wouldn’t do something like this…! stop..!

If you just tempt me with that mask…

“Hey. Are you really not doing this? Is this fun?”

“……”

“I guess that red kid is there too?”

“……”

Let’s do it right now.

“Let me join you.”

“Ahahaha..! I said I was going to do it, but I turned my head.”

I quickly put on my mask.

Because we have to prepare for something that will happen soon anyway.
