Apparently, I’m a Childhood Friend of a Saint in the World of Light Novels, and When We Meet Again After a Few Years at School, She’s Turned into Some Kind of Yandere?
While attending first period class, a rattling alert suddenly begins to sound.
The classmates cannot hide their surprise and bewilderment at the sudden noise.
But…
(The teacher’s expression hardens. This doesn’t look like a good situation.)
I immediately stand up, holding the sword that was propped up beside me
In response, Charlotte and Princess Iris also stood up.
“Princess Iris! What’s going on!?”
“The defensive wards protecting the school are under attack! That means ……”
Princess Iris ran to the window and quickly opened the curtains.
What she saw were countless flying monsters trying to break the defensive wards.
The sight of them made Princess Iris gasp.
“How could such a large number of demons be allowed to approach so close to the capital?….”
“Think about it later! Teacher! Tell them to evacuate!”
The academy is one of the nation’s most important facilities, so it has a strong defensive ward.
Even so, it would soon reach it’s limit against this number of monsters.
If a massacre of the sons and daughters of important people in the country were to occur, the country could be destroyed, not to mention Princess Iris’s throne.
We had to stop it at all costs.
“We must evacuate immediately! Don’t take anything unnecessary with you, it will only get in the way!”
The teacher was competent and immediately began to organize the students.
I looked at the demons that were about to break through the wards with relief.
“I’m going to defeat them. Charlotte, will you help me?”
When I asked her that, she gently took my hand in hers and smiled.
She smiled.
“Of course. I will follow you wherever you go, Alan kun.”
She answered immediately without any sign of hesitation.
Her trust in me inspired me.
“Wait!”
“Wait!”
Just as Charlotte and I are about to go out, we are interrupted from behind.
I looked back and saw Mary and Foster sama standing there.
“I thought you two had evacuated …….”
“I knew you two would definitely try to fight! So …….”
Mary looked at me with the most serious eyes I had ever seen.
Her eyes look like those of a warrior who is ready to risk his life.
It was filled with a spirit that said nothing of its presence or absence.
And the same is true for Foster-sama.
“I don’t want to be the one running away when you two are fighting! We’re friends, aren’t we ……?”
“Take me with you, Alan! I’m jealous that you guys are the only ones fighting…I won’t be able to imitate you so callously! ”
“Mary ……, Foster sama….”
We can’t sacrifice anyone.
That’s why I wanted to evacuate them, but no matter how you look at it, it’s also true that we don’t have enough manpower.
I was shaking in the back of my mind.
“……, I understand.”
“……! Yeah! I’ll take care of it!”
“Gahaha! I’m on it, Alan! I’ll shoot down those little birds of prey!”
In the case of Foster-sama, I know he just wants to fight, but I’m well aware of his abilities, and above all, gravity magic is a good match for flying enemies.
Mary’s magic is also suitable for the current situation.
I decided it would be better to have her help us.
“Princess Iris, please go to the evacuation site.”
“You didn’t ask me to fight…I can’t help you…?”
“In terms of the right person for the job, Princess Iris’s powerful defensive magic is well suited to protect the evacuated students, and her use of the sphere of life ensures a certain degree of safety. I beg of you, please retreat from this place.”
“……I am also immature to be admonished in terms of the right person in the right place. …… I am sorry, I am distraught. I wish you all the best of luck.”
Princess Iris nodded broadly and ran to the evacuation site.
This means that as long as we don’t die, Princess Iris should be safe.
“Come on ……, let’s go ……!
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
“Ou!”
We jumped out of the window into the schoolyard.
At that moment, our defensive wards were breached…
◇◆◇
Slash and slash and slash.
That’s all there is to it.
So many enemies.
“Haha! You’re exhausted, Alan! There’s still some left!”
“I know! I think your sword is getting dull!”
Foster-sama gave me a stirring comment, to which I responded with a light-hearted remark.
The hero’s basic abilities and growth are amazing, and I don’t get tired of just doing this.
However, moving around so as not to let it pass through to the evacuation site, and firing magic at long distances so as not to hit the allies, was definitely sapping my concentration and physical strength.
“Charlotte! How’s the battle going!”
Charlotte, who supports us by casting auxiliary magic in the rear, is our commanding officer.
We had to rely on Charlotte because there were too many enemies to see well when we were fighting on the front lines.
“We are fighting hard in all areas and are thriving! We have not collapsed yet!”
On the school side, besides us, there are teachers who have finished evacuation guidance, 3-S, 3-A, 2-S, and members of the student council, who are called the elite of the student council.
Each of them has the strength not to be defeated by the violence of numbers, and there are more of them than us.
So…
“We’re here to help you, freshman! Do what you want with us!”
“This year’s freshmen are as promising as they say they are! I’m Beato! I’m in charge of music!”
As soon as there was enough room, the seniors and teachers came to follow one after another.
The change of commanders in the middle of battle would have caused confusion, so everyone came under Charlotte’s command.
The battle situation was becoming more and more stable, in fact, it was even picking up.
However, there was another factor that was the main reason for the recovery of the situation.
The one who was overwhelmingly shooting down the enemy, even with seniors, teachers, and even myself and Foster-sama in the background.
That is…
“I’m still going! A great explosion!”
With such chanting, a violent explosion occurs and a bird-shaped demon crashes down.
The force of the blast is tremendous, and even I, who am at a distance, am hit by a considerable blast.
(I had heard that she was strong in battles against many people, but I never expected her to reach this level… It was a good decision to ask her for help.)
Mary is the one who shows off her bravery.
She is not just a commoner who can use magic.
She is said to be one in tens of thousands of people who can use two attributes, and in the 1-S magic hierarchy, she is the third in line after Charlotte and myself.
But that is not her real strength.
“I’ve heard rumors, but I never thought I’d see it with my own eyes. ……”
“I can’t believe it. ……”
“I could go on and on!~”
Mary was the perfect child of magic, able to use a fusion of two attributes that is almost unprecedented in history.
Her attributes are fire and earth.
She fuses them together and uses explosive magic.
It is not impossible to use earth and fire at the same time to create pseudo-explosion magic, but Mary’s is incomparable.
Almost all of the magic she emits is converted into explosive energy, so her attack power and attack range are said to be top class among all attributes.
In short, in a word, Mary is extremely strong.
“Please support Mary san, everyone! Please don’t miss a shot!”
“””Ou!”””
Deal the final blow to the enemy who has lost their balance due to the blast.
The more people there are, the more efficient it will be.
(I’ve prepared a wide-range magic, but I don’t think I’ll be able to use it this time.)
I have learned a wide range of magic so that I can deal with situations like this.
I was going to try it this time, but Mary asked me, so I decided to ask her do it.
“This is it! Last!”
Mary unleashes her magic.
The magic finished destroying the few remaining enemies.
I could hear the cheers of the crowd as they realized that they had survived.
Nevertheless, my instincts were telling me
There is still an enemy out of sight.
It was as if……
“Demon…”
“Even so, I would soon reach my limit against this number of monsters.”
Due to information stated in previous paragraph (about barrier, and they not sorted out yet) I incline to believe that mc has nothing to do with it. Probably should be: “it(‘s) would soon reach it limit”.
Apologies if I wrong.
hey, you’re right, thanks
