“It looks like everyone is here, so let’s begin. We are gathered here today to discuss a top secret task…”
Not long after Yui and the combat miko were taken by Koumaru, Rami stood before the students she selected.
There were about twenty, all boasting considerable strength.
She had been tasked by Koumaru, a diplomat from Yamato, with guarding the combat miko as they were transported, so she picked students to accompany them, and explained their strategy.
She was not told Raiha was half loong, and all she was told was that the combat miko could not remain in an unsafe city. This being an assignment from a foreign diplomat meant she was earnest in her intentions to see it through.
Suffice to say, there were hero prospects, reincarnated students, among the ones gathered by her.
Egos was not present due to his expulsion, but all others were there.
Their eyes were on Rami, but not their attention.
They had cleared Luminous History several times, so they also heard her multiple times.
That meant they all knew what was to come.
However, their expressions did not show such a lax attitude, and they whispered to each other in a way that Rami would not notice.
“What’s going on here? Isn’t this event happening too early?”
“None of us are strong enough, and the climax is already here?”
After suddenly coming face to face with the powered up enemies in the insectary, they focused on training themselves and the members of their parties, but… They were suspended from school after attending the meeting of the Friends of the Night Society to attempt to lure the combat miko to their side.
Not only that, but in the meantime, Sakura joined Yuugo’s party, and now they were being faced with an event even though they could not make any moves and did not polish their strength at all.
Everything was happening too fast. They should be leveling up and growing at their leisure, but suddenly, they were going to have to fight something far beyond their power.
Shian actually fought monster armor beasts that evolved to level two, so he was more aware of the gap in power than the others, and was even more anxious.
(This is pretty bad. At this rate, I could very well face off against an enemy I can’t beat and get a game over.)
Before they knew it, the high stats they had due to their reincarnation bonus were not cutting it anymore.
They felt flustered over not only the story advancing, but it all happening too soon, but still felt confident enough.
“Well, it will work out. We’ll be saved by the contents of the event.”
“We can avoid the boss if we sacrifice Ryuuga…”
The story about the exchange students from Yamato split off into three routes at the end. And if they did not follow the path that led to both Ryuuga and the combat miko surviving, this boss fight could be avoided.
They had already decided to follow this route a while back, so this was where they reaped the benefits.
And since they did not grow, nothing could be better for them than to avoid the very strong boss of this part.
(The requirements to go through this route are simple, so there’s no need to worry. Not to mention that it’s good for us if Ryuuga dies anyway.)
Ryuuga’s survival pretty much guaranteed a flag with Raiha.
He was certainly useful as a fighter, but since Shian and the others wanted to be heroes, having a man that was stronger than them by their side was something they definitely wanted to avoid.
They wanted to make a harem of cute girls, and be acknowledged as successful people.
They all confirmed once again their wishes to advance through the route that guaranteed Ryuuga’s death.
And after also confirming the things they must absolutely not do, they began to discuss what came after this event.
This event might be an opportunity to pry the combat miko away from Yuugo’s party.
And once that happened, they would outsmart the others and add them to their harem… Was what pretty much all the reincarnated students were thinking.
But one seemed out of place. Zenon was called there due to having the same main character status as the others, but he had a somewhat depressed look on his face as he heard the others.

I was like “No way it
