96 - The Brave Goes to Test Your Heart

That night when Elise and her friends came to do their homework.

We, the members of the club, were at the school.

"Ha-ha-ha!　It's pitch black!　Something is going on!

"......[test of courage]. It's stupid!　It's really stupid!"

Oh dear," Gaius shakes his head.

"Gaius, are you blue in the face?　Are you okay?　Do you have a fever?"

"It's not that I'm not feeling well."

Gaius patted his brother-in-law on the head.

"Well, then why are you sweating so much?　You don't look so good."

"You're scared, aren't you, of the ghost?"

""""Ah ......"""

We nod in agreement.

"You're afraid of ghosts when you're a monster yourself, but there's something cute about you, too."

"Ba-ba-ba!　I'm not afraid of ghosts!　Sakura!　Don't you dare say a funny word!"

"Well, well, well. We all have at least one thing we don't like. Don't make fun of it.

"When you say it like that, it sounds like sarcasm coming from a perfect superhero!"

After homework was finished, everyone decided to play together.

So we decided to go to the school to check out the "Seven Wonders" of the school, and to take a test of our courage.

We enter the school building.

"I didn't know there was such a thing as the Seven Wonders.

"This school building seems to have been around for a very long time, so there are a lot of ghost stories. For example, there is a story that if you enter the school building in the middle of the night, you won't be able to get out.

"Ha, ha!　Of course that's because the security guard locked the door!　What's so scary about it, ahahaha!"

That's when it happened.

Boom!

"Heeeeeeeeeeee!"

Gaius yells out, his body jerking wildly.

"It's all right," he said, "the door just slammed shut.

"So, so, so, but it's automatic!　Sheesh!　The door!"

Elise rushes to put her hand on the doorknob.

And then she yanks it.

"Oh my God!　The door won't open!"

"Oh, no!"

Gaius approaches Elise, his face pale.

He pulls as hard as he can, but the door still won't open.

"Oh my god!　It's a curse!　The ghosts are trying to keep us from escaping!"

I approach the door.

"Tei."

Dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

I thought I knocked lightly, but the whole wall blew away.

"".........""

"Don't be rash. We can just break down the wall, can't we?"

"Besides, I can always go home by shifting, can't I?"

""Ah ......""

Both of them turn red and look down.

"Come on, let's go. Let's go see the Seven Wonders."

We leave the entrance hall and come to the hallway.

"Brother!　Don't you ever leave my side!"

"I know."

My brother grabs my arm and hugs me tightly.

"Isn't it normal for a woman to hug a man in such a situation?"

I'm a female in front of you.

Mikael is walking with Elise's hand in his.

"The seven wonders of the corridor are [teke teke], aren't they?"

"What the hell is that?

Sakura says in a calm tone to Gaius, who is trembling.

"There was once a boy whose torso was cut in half by a sickle during magic training. After his death he became a vengeful spirit and came back with the scythe. He said he would do the same thing to him. ......"

That's when it happened.

"Teke...... teke...... teke......"

There was something at the end of the hallway.

It was a maniac.

But there was no lower half of his body.

"Geeeeaaaah!　

The figure floats in the air, holding a sickle.

He came to us, making strange noises.

"Brother!　Brother aaaaaaaaah!　Ohhhhhhh, help me!"

"Take it, take it, take it!"

The guykotsu swings his scythe at me.

Snap!

The moment it hit my body, the blade of the sickle broke.

That's not all.

The impact spread throughout my body, and Gaikokotsu turned into white sand and disappeared.

"Brother! Don't worry. The danger is over.

"Ugh ...... gusun ...... really oh ......?"

"Oh, yeah. So don't cry no more."

I pat my brother on the head.

Gaius' trembling stops and he lets out a sigh of relief.

"You look like a girl, Gaius."

"Uh-uh!"

"Come on, let's go next."

We arrived in front of the infirmary.

"The slit-mouthed lady doctor. There once was a woman doctor who was born with a slit in her mouth up to her ear. She was bullied because of it and committed suicide.

The door opens with a bang.

Inside, a masked doctor is sitting in a chair.

She stands up and takes off her mask.

"Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!　Oh, my mouth is ripped open!

The doctor approaches us.

Gaius is frozen in place, unable to move.

My companions get scared and get behind me.

"Activate!　Aniue guard!　The other guy is dead!"

"I'm not going to do something so stupid."

A woman doctor stands in front of me.

"Hey ...... am I ...... pretty?"

"Be careful, Julius!　Give me the wrong answer and you'll get killed!"

The doctor asks again.

"Am I ...... pretty?"

"Yes, you're so beautiful. You're so beautiful.

"Eh ......////"

The doctor blushes and flinches.

"Oh, no. I'm disgusting with my mouth like this, aren't I?"

"Oh, so that's what's been bothering you. I'll fix it."

Apply the healing spell.

The laceration closes and the face becomes normal.

"Look, it's healed. Yes, you're a beauty!"

He creates a hand mirror and hands it to the doctor.

"No...... this is ...... me ......?"

Gradually, the doctor bursts into tears.

She shakes her body.

"Thank you ......."

The doctor laughs as if a flower has bloomed.

Soo ...... and her body becomes transparent.

"You look better with a smile on your face, don't you?

With a look of satisfaction on her face, the doctor left the room.

"That's great, Julius! Even ghosts can be cured by healing!

"You're a real charmer, aren't you? He's just breathing like a man. That's what I'm talking about."

The women's team nods in agreement.

"There you go, Gaius. The scary ghost is gone."

"............"

Geesh!

"What, what are you mad at me for?　Nah."

"Shut up, you stupid brother!"

The younger brother turns away and leaves the infirmary.

"Did I do something wrong?"

The usual? The usual..." "The usual..."

What do you mean, "the usual"?

After that, we went around the school and experienced the Seven Wonders.

Mr. Myrtle in the bathroom.

[Ghost Story]

When you call out "Mr. Myrtle" to a private room at the far end of the farthest toilet, she comes out.

→When I called out to her, she answered, "She's not here!　He's not here!　He's not here!" I was rejected.

Red paper, blue paper

Ghost story.

The toilet asks you if you want red or blue paper. If you answer red, you are burned with fire, and if you answer blue, you are iced to death.

→Before I can answer, they say, "I'm sorry, sir!　Please don't kill me, please don't kill me, please don't kill me, please don't kill me.

The Notebook of the Grim Reaper

[Ghost Story]

A person whose name is written in a black notebook without a title in a library dies. After killing any human being, you must place an apple as an offering or the Grim Reaper will drain your soul and you will die.

→I didn't die even though my name was written in the notebook. After a while, the Grim Reaper came and looked at me and said, "Are you a colleague of mine?" He asked me. He left normally.

"What's so scary about the Seven Wonders of the School?"

"I can usually get by with Julius, can't I?"

"That's great, Aniue!　It's awesome!"

We came to the rooftop of the school.

"Is this the last of the ghost stories?"

"Yes. There are 12 steps leading up to the rooftop, but when you come here at midnight, there are 13 steps. And if you take the last step, you'll be taken to another world and never come back.

"Hmm. Well, let's try climbing it."

"Hey, hey, brother!　It's dangerous!"

Gaius pulled my arm to stop me.

"If you really don't come back, I'm not going to ......."

I pat him on the head and say.

"Don't worry. You wait here."

He pulls away from me.

"Make sure you come home."

"Yeah."

I'm going up the stairs.

There is only one more step to the top.

"There it is. Well..."

I put my foot on the 13th step.

Suddenly, a hole widens under my feet.

I fell down and the hole closed.

"Ni, bro!　Niisama!"

"What? What?"

With a "good boy," I climbed out of the ground.

"What's going on?"

"Well, I just used the void sword to cut through the dimension and escaped from the other world, didn't I?"

The members were stunned.

"Aniue is amazing!"

"...... really, your brother's existence is more of a ghost story."

So, our summer test of courage ended without much fear.

Well, that's how rumors go, isn't it?
