Chapter 65: War?Council
Translator: Mr.Nobody
“Oi, what happened? It’s so noisy… You, you are Masatsugu!?”
“What!? Shit! Why that guy Naomi is here?”
The ones who said it was Miyamota and Ishijima who rushed from a corner of the castle to look at the situation.
And gradually the rest of my classmates came here following them.
There are 30 people total.
Miyamoto is the main bully while Ishijima is a bright person on the surface but under it he’s a person who defeats others with devious methods.
When the two of them saw me they were glaring at me with open hostility.
Even the rest of classmates looked at me like I was their parent’s enemy.
But, I don’t have anything to do with them and even with Miyamoto and Ishijima.
I’ve no time to bout with them even a conversation is a waste of time.
I made that decision and ignored my classmates who were glaring at me for no reason and went straight ahead for the inside of the castle.
But
“Masatsugu, how dare you! Don’t ignore me!”
“Shit, this will be the day where you’ll be done for sure! You pay for the disgrace at the mountain range!”
The two of them yelled and took up positions in front of the door.
I sighed and opened my mouth to talk.
“I’m sorry but I don’t have time to play with kids. You guys probably don’t know it but war will begin soon. As the supervisor of the orphanage I must talk with the King concerning this war. If you understood then move aside. The two of you are already at a good age so you can make decisions.”
I said so and warned them.
But the two of them ignored my warning and the opposite they got riled up even more.
“Kh! I’ll kill you! Masatsugu become rust by my new holy sword!”
“This is my and Miyamoto-kun’s combined attack! You’ll die surprised quickly! Eat this! Edge of Black Wind ‘Exhatio’!”
They screamed and released one attack towards me.
It seems it was a skill combination of Miyamoto’s ‘Holy Sword User’ and Ishijima’s speciality ‘Wind Magic’.
A black edge emanating death from it was heading towards me.
But…
“You’re annoying..”
I plainly said so and lightly flipped the approaching black edge like you would poke on a head.
When I did so the edge changed direction and went straight ahead for Miyamoto and Ishijima.
“Nge!?”
“Gyaa!”
While screaming they got knocked out by it.
But the momentum of the edge didn’t stop and changed it’s direction upwards from the impact at that rate it was going to hit the upper parts of the castle and splendidly with a Dokan sound bore in a corner of the castle’s top floor.
“The throne should be around here.”
I muttered and stepped over the two of them and slowly opened the door and began entering inside.
But, the rest of the classmates who were watching were resentful.
“Shit, what a guy!”
“Miyamoto-kun! Ishijima-kun! Come to your senses!”
“Shit, stop Masatsugu!”
“Oi, hold it!”
They were saying such and came to grab me.
Some were holding my arms behind while others were clinging to my legs.
“Master!”
Lucia yelled out to me and came rushing to help me. But…
“No, don’t mind them. It’s useless so let’s just go to the throne.”
“…UH?”
I feel like I heard a thunderstruck voice from her and I ignored the 30 people clinging to me. And like that me dragging them along we entered inside of the castle.
The throne is on the top floor so I opened the door that led to it.
Since they lead me once when we were summoned, I can remember the way somewhat.
When I first came here I was impressed by the dazzling furniture and the dignified interior design.
But now…
“This is bad, prince Salab fainted from shock due to the ceiling which fell earlier.”
“Count Bilderba also fainted! This has bubbles spouting out!”
“Where’s the healer!?’
“Sheesh, I have to participate in this war council!? I’ll return to my own territory!”
“Please wait, Frontier Count Meja-sama! I’ll be troubled if you leave and do as you want!”
It resembles a lot like chaos.
It seems the attack from Miyamoto and Ishijima from earlier made a large part of the throne’s ceiling collapse.
These old and fat men which wore gaudy clothes and were surprised and scream around were nobles probably summoned here for an urgent war council. It looked like I was in a hell of pandemonium.
Meanwhile, I suddenly appeared in the room with the 30 classmates that got dragged by me. When they saw me…
“Who are you!?”
“Do you know what place this is!? This is not a place for commoners to come! Oi, what are the guardsmen doing!?”
“Throw him out! Wait no, capture and torture him!”
They went bloodcurdling.
Sigh, like this we won’t have a conversation.
“You lot are too noisy. You lot weren’t able to decide even on one plan for this serious event therefore I’ll take over and do it for you. That’s why be quiet for a bit!”
I said so and cautioned the nobles.
But, their faces became vacant as if they couldn’t understand a single thing I said.
“Do you know who are you talking to!?”
“Treason! I’ll personally execute you!”
“What rights does a person like you have!?”
They heat up once again and said such things with faces red like octopuses.
But I was calm and sighed amazed at them.
“Good grief, you can amaze others at how disorderly you can be… What does it matter who I am but can you guys do nothing but raise chaos in a critical moment in whether country will survive or not… If you aren’t able to even debate then you’re a hindrance to the war council. Shut your mouth!”
“What!? How dare you speak to the people who hold the high position of nobles!”
“That’s right! Basing on the formalities we have to carefully plan for who’ll be the vanguard and then…”
“Sigh, I’m saying your opponent is coming right this moment. It seems you can’t see reality. You guys being here are no different than cancer cells. Even if we win it will be like we didn’t win. Since you can’t even quiet down even when advised, it can’t be helped.”
I sighed and I lightly grabbed and raised the head of one of the male classmates who were clinging to me.
And then I strongly threw my classmate towards the boisterous pig-looking noble.
Dokun!
Such crispy sound echoed in the throne room.
“Ngya!?”
“Hige!?”
Both of the men fell on the ground flat and raised voices that you couldn’t guess who let out which voice.
The other nobles looked at the scene.
“Hii!?”
And screamed a voice hard on the ears.
“This is treachery! Throw him in prison immediately. No, death penalty instead! It’s going to be carried right here and now. Did you think that doing this will be settled normally!?”
He said that raising his voice.
“Okay, you’re next.”
I listened to him only with a bitter smile and raised up another classmate that holding on to me.
And then in succession I kept throwing my classmates one by one towards the nobles who raised dissatisfied voices.
“Doing this, do you know what’ll happen to… Gya!?”
“This is a grievous offense! You’ll be executed! It won’t be just you but the rest of your family too… Ngya!?”
“Hiiiiiiiiiii. You can still be pardoned that’s why sto…. Giyaaa!”
“Please forgive me! I’ll be quiet! That’s why please stop throwing at me!”
“I’m different from the other foolish nobles! I didn’t have opposite thoughts from the beginning!”
“Me too!”
At first they continued arrogantly but gradually as the fallen nobles number kept increasing they began showing signs of obedience.
“Fools. I’ll tell this one more to you immature lot, I came to have a discussion with the King on this occasion so that I can fight against the Balk Empire instead of him. It’s not a place for people with minor roles like you. Wait in the corner until I give you an order. Wait quietly. It’s a thing even kids can do. Do you understand?”
I sighed heavily and informed them.
“Gu,gugugu…. Okay, please excuse us…”
They replied in a small voice.
Their voice is too small…
“Do you understand!?”
“Yes, WE SHALL DO AS YOU SAY!”
I vigorously yelled and they got surprised and replied clearly this time.
After 10 minutes, only the angered Warms king and few smarter nobles who were glaring at me with resentment remained in the throne room.
