“Oh—! Hohohoho! Looking at this cute reaction… It seems like there wasn’t enough space in the criminals’ minds to engrave the true woman’s noble appearance! Please forgive me especially! Hehehe~”

Shiny blonde hair.

Shining red eyes.

Cute, protruding fangs.

A casual dress with a length that exposes the calf.

“Ho—Hohoho!”

A vampire girl suddenly appeared and stood in the center of the conference hall, showing off her noble appearance. It looked like it was strutting around like an ancient Greek statue.

‘No, I have to sit down again anyway…’ Why… ?’

Hilde has to conduct a meeting.

She spoke in a blunt but somewhat tired tone.

“… Take a seat, [Yellow Fog].”

“Hoot—! Ho ho ho! Brunhild! To give an order to your wife—this is truly rude! As someone in a shining position, I understand my mission to lead others. How could criminals be deprived of the opportunity to appreciate the appearance of the true woman, the embodiment of the most noble night and the crystallization of beauty… ! You truly are a cruel person!”

“… Astrid. There is no such person.”

“Hohoho!! I guess so—!! There is no one anywhere in this universe who would hate the beauty of the original woman—!! Now, enjoy it to your heart’s content, criminals—!”

“… Astrid. No one wants to watch you. If you are not seated, you will be considered not attending the first joint meeting.”

“Hmph… ! You are a boring person! In order to celebrate your love, the main woman has prepared 17 performances that the criminals could not even imagine in their heads—!”

“… Just take my heart.”

“Heung, boring person.”

Hilde pressed and rubbed the area around her eyes.

“Whoo—“

Hilde’s tired sigh is really hard to hear. But Astrid paid no heed and began to confidently walk to her seat.

The cheerful sound of shoes.

Again

Again

As she walked, the girl’s rich blonde hair flowed, and the scent of cheap soap wafted through it. A spicy mint scent that may be found in public facilities or relief supplies…

‘She’s not really a young lady, she’s the daughter of an ordinary family… ‘

If you look closely, you can see that the brightly colored midi dress she is wearing is also poorly finished and has slight discoloration. In terms of quality, you could even believe that it came from a used clothes collection bin.

Overwhelming looks and confidence. Those two things completed the cosplay of the second-year middle school student Astrid from [Light Yellow Fog].

“Huhu~”

Astrid was twisting her blonde hair with her fingers, her red eyes searching for anyone to admire her.

“… ”

“… ”

sense…

We’re tired of wearing that cosplay for so long. He was slowly averting his eyes from the sparkling red eyes.

“… ”

Among the third years, Skadi, who had never met Astrid for the first time, looked away as if she had figured out her annoying nature just by her appearance.

Skadi muttered in a very quiet voice.

“Why are those with [Unique Aether] abilities in Academy City evil…? ”

but.

Except for me, an ordinary person,

I agree that everyone has their own unique personality.

‘Is it because I stirred things up? I guess it feels more bouncy and bouncy than the original… ‘

Albit, who was sitting next to me, was also silently lowering his head and trying not to make eye contact.

…

‘I’m not a bad kid… The kid is a little tired.’

mosquito… Although vampire girls have a tendency to indulge in vampirism, Astrid’s was particularly severe.

in the foggy northwest forest. It was the most geographically remote of the nine union schools.

‘I wonder if there’s a sense of compensation because he’s in a corner, and if he comes out, he’ll do something strange… ‘

The representative of that place, [Yellow Fog], Astrid. Unlike Belle, who knew when to quit, her situational drama was endless.

Even I, who had a certain inner affinity as a gamer, found it difficult to match her cosplay consistently.

what… Except for that…

There was nothing particularly strange or bad about Astrid. I was like a flower pot that would grow on its own if you just gave it the right amount of attention.

Around the time everyone was thinking that way.

There was a metallic sound that echoed throughout the conference hall.

Clack—!

Everyone looked there,

I could see Hilde taking out the watch from her pocket. Luxurious silver sparkled on the pocket watch in his hand.

Gulp—

Astrid must have thought that the watch looked very ‘ladylike’, so she was gulping and staring at it.

“Wow, it’s a very elegant watch… ”

“… ”

Of course, Hilde recognized that gaze, but ignored it.

“… ”

After checking the time, Hilde hesitated for a moment and spoke in a business-like voice.

“… Hmm, I guess it’s too late. Originally, there was an event to be held before the meeting started, but we will postpone it.”

“Ahaha… ☆”

Even though I smiled slightly, I broke into a cold sweat inside.

‘that… Should I do it? ‘Can’t we just assume that the congratulations we received earlier are done?’

Representatives from nine schools. The meeting began with the ten students gathered here with their eyes shining.

*

Time to talk about the abnormal situations we each witnessed in Academy City. A brief report from representatives of each school followed.

The representative of , second-year knight commander Helina.

Helina, dressed in gloomy black armor, finished her report by saying just one sentence in a voice that resonated through her helmet.

“… There is nothing wrong with the dark side of the roots of the world tree.”

“I see.”

Whooo— Pushee—

“… ”

And she sat down, sighing.

“… ”

“… ”

“… ”

“… ”

Four people, including me, who had reached the level of martial arts or higher, looked at her for a while. But Helina didn’t pay attention to those gazes.

‘Oh, I heard that you have the [Unique Ether] ability, but you have a poker face? Even though they are weaker than us, they are good at maintaining their momentum… ‘

Our turn finally came back.

Hilde looked this way and said.

“Then, it’s time for .”

“Yes, this is the first time we will meet officially. This is Albit, the student council president of .”

“Wow—☆ Applause—☆”

“Seo, senior?!”

Clap clap clap clap

“Uh, huh? Should we clap now?”

“Hiyaaa!! Let’s start with three applause!!”

Clap clap clap clap

Then, several students who were caught up in the atmosphere clapped in agreement.

Albit looked at me with evil eyes. However, Hilde looked at this with happy eyes and then turned to Arbit and asked him to continue reporting.

“First of all, our school is a very small school, so there were no troubles or accidents on the premises… I witnessed most of the big events. To start with, one of our students was caught up in a large-scale kidnapping that took place at the beginning of the first semester.”

Rbit’s subsequent presentation was surprisingly sincere.

During the first semester, followed incidents and accidents, and what they witnessed… And why I wanted to help them.

When Eir, Freya, Anna, Astrid, and others heard that, a hint of quite a bit of humor appeared in their eyes.

‘Well, due to the circumstances, I can’t talk about the airship incident, but… Still, thanks to going around and helping for free, I suddenly found myself in the position of a trustworthy third colleague.’

Actually, Hilde talked to me on the phone,

I knew everything about quite a few issues, but…

He didn’t particularly interrupt the conversation, but was calmly listening to the story about .

Albit finally finished the story.

“This concludes the presentation. … Clara senior, you don’t have to applaud.”

“Ah, I got caught—☆”

Albit glanced in my direction, nodded and sat down. Then, Anna, Eir, Freya, and Skadi, who received help or had good impressions, spoke as if they were proud.

“Oh, that first-year student is the student council president? It’s really amazing~”

“When you see injustice, you can’t stand it and go out to help… Hehehe, he’s a smart guy.”

“Hehehe, you are our proud junior—☆”

“Well, well… Oh, we also received help from in the end… So, honestly, I think it was more helpful than .”

“… Not bad. Having neighbors who can keep morals. It is a flaw that it is used as a hideout for Maya to run away to.”

oh…

Maya, everything you’ve been doing has been caught… ☆

“Ma, the last one is definitely … ”

Among them, the last one was the presentation by , which was also the big event of the first semester.

How complicated it has become.

Even if I summarized it as best as I could, there was no end to it.

Still, there were signs here and there that they were trying to organize as much as possible and give a summary presentation.

It was like watching purple pictures that started to come to life and a PPT using all kinds of magic.

“Whoo, whoo… ”

Freya finished her long presentation with a tired face.

“This, above… This is my content about this situation… Jill, does anyone have any questions?”

It was Eir who raised his hand.

“Uh… So what is the damage conclusion? To be honest, I couldn’t listen to it because it was long.”

“Hwang smashes a dog in the northwest of Golden Street… Gui, the leadership of the aristocratic faction was wiped out… The exploration group is out there cleaning up the poop… 30% of public funds evaporated from … All, ‘I will never cheat again.’ Documents signed… ”

“Aha. I see. You are good at explaining things.”

“Ah, anyway, I don’t think I’ll be able to hold the summer-fall festival at this year… ”

“Then shall we do it for you? They said the last runaway festival had a good response.”

“Okay, that’s enough… ”

The alliance between the Eastern Alliance and .

After the report summarizing the incident,

Katrin, who was present as the representative representative of , was bowed with a white face.

‘Well, they say she was the one who didn’t actively follow Andrea’s orders… I guess I’m scared. ‘I have to listen to the grievances of the damage caused by my seniors.’

If it were me, I wouldn’t have come because I was scared of having to wear a gun instead. Just coming here and nominally assuming the position of representative was quite respectable.

Skadi also seemed to have the same feelings for Katrin, and quietly advised her with his arms crossed.

“… joy. I take responsibility now. No one will do anything to you here, so keep your head up. That’s what you have to do here.”

“… Yes.”

We exchanged information about and the damage situation, and before we knew it, we were really exchanging information as a ‘coalition’. Clearly, this was a situation that was unified much more quickly than the original.

‘I’m glad we were able to have a meeting like this… ‘

“… ”

There was a white wedding dress in front of me.

Somehow, the size fits my measurements so precisely that it gives me goosebumps. Decorated with pink ribbons and embroidery, it looked like something a bride would wear on a refreshing spring day.

And next to it was a dress with an understated design, embroidered in silver and blue.

“… ”

No… ?

This isn’t that… ?

Please say no.

But Hilde held my shoulder and whispered sweetly.

“… I couldn’t measure the size properly, so I used some old records as a reference. sorry… ”

“… ”

“Let’s be blessed in front of everyone… ”

hey…

This is a bit…
