Chapter 529 – Episode 57. Sports Day Mayhem
The match did not take place immediately after lunch. There were performances by several singers invited by the academy. Of course, Serif’s performance was there as well.
The atmosphere was quite good, perhaps because there were performances by not only Serif but also many other singers. There were large screens placed here and there, so the performance was clearly visible even from a distance.
Immediately after the hour-long performance, there was a game against each class, which was a dodgeball game. It was a 10-10 10-minute match, and the rule was that the team that eliminated all opponents before 10 minutes or had the most survivors at the end of the 10 minutes won.
Missing from the dodgeball game were Shiyo Naruse and Tsubaki Shido, who were weak, and Karen Uenozono, who was exhausted after performing just recently.
Naturally, there was nothing rough about our 3rd grade special class. Seizawa Shii threw the ball with tremendous power, as if to avenge their loss in the morning lacrosse game, rendering one student unable to fight (in fact, many students were unable to stand up after being hit by Seizawa Shii’s ball), and Kina Kujo was so scary. Haha, I laughed and threw the ball. Rena Sakagami, who specializes in throwing techniques, put out two or three people with one throw, and Alic threw a ball as fast as lightning with his characteristic expressionless expression.
Otagi Yuka and Saionji Diana didn’t think there was any need for them to come forward, so they just buried it. Nevertheless, the special team was overwhelmingly victorious. The academy will be very grateful for the tight workout schedule as each game ends in almost 3 minutes.
In the finals, we met the 3rd grade C class led by Muko Neika, Vice Chairperson of the Discipline Committee, and even though Muko Neika alone put out as many as 7 people, it was our special class that won. By the way, isn’t Muko Naika great? With this level of skill, it was as good as the students with high combat skills in our special class.
I wanted to recruit him like some of the students in my class, but Muko Naika was probably… Together with Rina Nakanoin, the chair of the Discipline Committee, we will become Taira Kanna’s limbs.
Watching Tyra Kanna do it, it seemed like she was steadily gathering all the forces she could muster at St. Francis Girls’ Academy. The disciplinary committee members under the student council were well-armed and had constant combat experience, and if you listen to the stories of the student council members, they were all talented people who were outstanding in their fields.
It certainly seemed like they were gathering forces within the confines of the school to take over a piece of the empire called the Tyra Group.
“Good job.”
“Teacher, I won!”
“Wow~! Ryu Tachi won!”
“Ryuta, you won… !”
He hugged the students who rushed at him at once and congratulated him on his victory. The parents were there, so I was able to tell, but as a homeroom teacher, I can’t be cold-hearted and ignore the kids when they’re so happy.
So, I didn’t pay attention and let the students be happy to their heart’s content.
The next match was a fencing match between red and white. Yuka Otagi was supposed to take part in fencing, but a problem arose. It was not our class’s problem, but the Hong team’s problem.
“So, the student who fainted after being hit by a ball thrown by Seizawa Shii was a fencing participant this time?”
The captain of the red team in the fencing match came to me with a dark complexion and said. In fencing, one or two students are selected from each class, but since only one person was selected from our class, they asked us to select one more person from our class. Since our class was the one who prevented us from going to the game, we should take responsibility.
“Okay. Don’t worry. “I’m kicking out one more person from my class.”
“Alik will go out, Ryuta.”
As soon as I said I would send out one more person, Alrik, who was standing next to me, took a step forward and said. Are you okay? Alrik is familiar with the German swordsmanship book he obtained from the United States, but he probably doesn’t know much about fencing…
“Alrik? Alexandra, right? “I’ll list you as a promising player~!”
The captain of the red fencing team was excited about Alexandra’s participation and ran to the competition support room. Seeing as he could pick anyone, he thought the student who passed out might not be that strong.
“Don’t you know the basic rules of Alik fencing?”
“Alrik, I don’t know… !”
I don’t know, but is it okay to be this bright? I sighed and called Yuka Otagi.
“Yes, sir. What’s going on?”
“The fencing player who was supposed to participate in fencing got injured and has to participate. Can you at least teach me the rules?”
“That’s simple… However, there is not much time left, so I need to teach you quickly. Alrik, let’s go~!”
Since there is a fencing match right away, it will take quite some time just to teach the basic rules. Yuka Otagi lifted Alic by the back of his clothes and went to where the fencing team was gathered. Alic was gently carried into the hands of Yuka Otagi, like a kitten being carried by its mother by the scruff of its neck.
In fact, even if Alrik doesn’t know anything about swordsmanship, let alone fencing, I think he could win by fighting all of his opponents at the same time alone, but since many eyes are watching, I hope he wears the appearance of fencing. It’s a pain in the ass if Minamoto Ushin or Taira Danzo gets noticed for no reason.
Regardless of my worries, the fencing match started right away. Fencing is a dangerous game to play wearing only dolphin pants and a white t-shirt, so everyone was well-dressed in fencing uniforms. Alic, who suddenly registered, was also wearing a fencing suit that suited his body type to the fencing club.
The fencing competition was called Fleuret, and points were scored by stabbing the upper body excluding the arms, head, and legs. I thought the Saber, which can cut and attack the entire upper body, would be advantageous to Alic, but I sat down thinking that Foil would be good too.
The white team and the red team played 9 games with 9 players each, with 2 rounds of 3 minutes per game. The first team to score 15 points was the winner. If they did not score 15 points during 2 rounds, the team with the most points was the winner. Just like the archery match the previous morning, the first one to win 5 out of 9 games would win, so strategic placement had to be done well.
Most of the players were members of the fencing club, and there were Cheongsimgwan students who still knew some swordsmanship. On the white team, there was Rina Nakanoin, the head of the disciplinary committee, and the vice president and vice president of the fencing club, and on this side there were Alic, Yuka Otagi, and Kanna Taira.
Did Tyra Kanna handle her sword well? She did, and she thought, but she must have come out because she was confident, and she started watching the game as she did. Since Tyra Kanna was the vanguard anyway, my doubts will be answered quickly.
Since it was a best-of-nine match, the fact that Taira Kanna took the lead meant that she was quite capable. For reference, Alric was the last person to turn. It seemed like the thought was that even Alic would not have his turn. When I asked for one more player earlier, the captain didn’t seem to care much about Alrik’s skills.
“Salut, En Garde! Etês vous Prêts, Allez!”
A woman who appears to be a referee shouts something. I know En Garde is preparation, so maybe I should start preparing! It probably means the same thing.
Tyra Kanna raised her sword and stood calmly looking at her opponent. Although she didn’t have the posture of a foil at all, her intimidating appearance was no joke. Her opponent was the vice president of the fencing club, and she was by no means a weak opponent. Bout! A cheering sound is heard, and the foil is fired at incredible speed. Taira Kanna swings her upright sword downwards, deflecting her opponent’s sword, taking a step back, and stabbing her in the chest. 1 point. She wins one point in an instant.
“Huh!”
The frustrated expression of the vice leader of the fencing club. As if she can’t lose like this, she stabs her sword again. This time, she entangles her sword in the same stabbing position and bounces it upward. It was such a miracle that she didn’t know how to do it even after seeing it in person. And in the meantime, three strikes. A beep beep beep sound is heard, and 3 points are recognized. Even though her opponent was the vice president of the fencing club, she was not an opponent for Tyra Kanna.
The result of the match was Tyra Kanna’s victory with a score of 15 to 1. Even the 1 point that the opponent gave was as if 0 points would be too humiliating, so the intention was conveyed that he would give me one point, so the opponent looked despairing. I thought it might be a bit too much, but… Well, Taira Kanna might have other thoughts as well.
In the next match, the fencing team manager came out in anger and launched a flawless attack as if he was going to repay Tyra Kanna in the same way she did. The result was 15 to 6. It was not as overwhelming as Tyra Kanna. The head of the fencing club came down from his seat with a resentful expression even though he had won.
Afterward, our team’s Otagi Yuka and our opponent’s Nakanoin Rina won overwhelming victories, and the rest evenly traded wins and losses.
In the end, the score was 4 wins and 4 losses, and the final 9 games became the deciding factor for this fencing match. The red team’s fencing captain, who thought of Alrik as just a member to make up for the number of participants, collapsed on the spot as if in despair. He probably thought he had no chance of winning.
Alic can be seen asking Yuka Otagi something with a question mark on his face. At that sight, I burst out laughing without realizing it. Maybe it’s Yuka, what’s wrong with that kid? You might be asking innocently. Yuka Otagi, who heard Alric’s words, also laughed as I did and put a fencing helmet on Alric.
Alric slowly climbed onto the arena and held up his rapier in a clumsy manner. His opponent had a skillful posture that seemed to have been practiced for several years. Among the people watching this scene right now, there will be only a few who predict Alric’s victory.
“Salut, En Garde! Etês vous Prêts, Allez!”
Soon the referee’s shout was heard, and the game began.
