7. Is your backside safe? (2)

#2 Their story: Aris Ril Letias story.

Why?

The same night study time as normal.

Its time for night study, but in a situation where escape, not study, was the primary objective we were still fighting as hard as we always did.

But how did things turn out like this today?

I apologise, Miss Aris.

And the person that was in charge of marking me especially, Professor Aruhan, smiled wryly as he answered my question.

Plan A begins today.

Isnt this seriously too much against students?

-Thats right, this is strange! What kind of academy is this meant to be!

Even the goddess of contests was complaining of inequality.

Plan A? This was?

Students betraying each other was Plan A!

I still fall far short of Professor Aruhan in a straight 1v1.

Because of that, the supporting backline pours on all sorts of beneficial magic onto me, and curses onto Professor Aruhan.

But today, that support was absent and on the contrary, I was the one being cursed instead.

As I turned around to see what was going on I saw a few key members of the first years attacking the other students.

Is this what were supposed to be learning at school?

How to attack each other!

According to Professor Nicerwin, giving students the experience of going up against divide and conquer strategies is a part of the curriculum

Professor Aruhan muttered, not looking me in the eyes as if he was also embarrassed to say it as well.

Divide and conquer? Just what the hell were you going to achieve by teaching students how to deal with that?

What, just what did he threaten you with!

There were no threats.

S, Shir?

My classmate, and a fellow first-year god-class summoner.

Even so, the cold expression that Shir, my childhood friend was making towards me was shocking.

Wh, why why, Shir! Why did you betray us even though you werent threatened!

One of my few friends that had no relations to my family, but simply between one person and another, had betrayed me.

Even if you put the circumstances of the school into account, this shocked me even more than I could ever imagine.

Not just me.

Just what what is this

As I saw people walk out amongst the other fallen first years, my face turned sheet white.

There were only six people walking towards me.

But when you considered that there were only 100 first years, that meant seven, including Shir.

A whopping seven percent of the students betrayed us and sided with the teachers!

And four of them were the other first years god-class summoners!

Even while my thoughts were in turmoil, they said something to shock me even further.

Professor Nicerwin said to us. Hell exempt us from tomorrows night study, so side with the teachers tonight.

H, how could it be

The only thought that ran through my head when I heard that was.

Why, why not me?!

I was the best fighter among the entirety of the first years! If the deal was exemption from night study I could wipe out half the first years by myself!

So why the hell did he leave me out and make a deal with these posers instead!

-A, Aris? You werent this kind of character, right?

-Who cares about character right naaaoo!

Every day, school ends only when the clock is past ten at night.

We call it dormitories, but as a noble, as a woman, after we finish this and that the time is midnight.

Its already the next day.

And when we wake up, its time to go to school.

Other schools start at 10AM, moreover, Marcis actually starts at eleven!

Why, are we the only ones to go to school two-three hours earlier? And its not like theres even class on at that time!

And school on the weekends as well! Its the weekend, we need to stay til two in the afternoon!

I mean at least they could let us have our Sundays off, right?

Even if the people close to me since childhood all came to Yugrasia with me, this year Yugrasia selected the fewest number of enrollments in history.

Because of that, the people that couldnt make the cut for this school, or went to another school due to family circumstances are living their school lives in other schools that arent this one.

And the times I can meet up with them are very limited.

Weekend afternoons.

And the school life Im hearing from them is seriously just like a dream, something that we could never imagine here in Yugrasia!

-A, Aris? I get it so you can stop now.

-No, not yet, I still have more to sayy!

What treatment was I getting whenever we met up in the weekends to talk about what we did at school?

Everyone looked at me like I was lying, looked at me with eyes of pity, do you know how embarrassing that was!

Even if I cant meet up with boys from other schools on weekdays, I want to meet up with friends from other academies and go shopping, go to cafes, and other things like a normal student would in a normal school life!

But, but! Why was I left out and a deal made with those mid-tier god-class summoners with those conditions!

I can never forgive you.

We had no intention of begging for forgiveness.

We already resolved ourselves when we betrayed the other students.

I dont regret it! I We! We just wanted to spend at least a day like normal students!

I feel like an unforgivable reason was conveyed quite differently, but theres no need for me to tell them.

They dare, to leave me out and play normal student by themselves!

Clang!

Excuse me, Miss Aris. I would feel sad if you ignored me.

But the sword that suddenly flew towards my back prevented me from achieving what I wanted.

Professor Stay out of this!

No, but Im responsible for you, and these kids are on our side, you see.

I bit my lip but there was no other option.

All I could do was fight my hardest!

And that day, aside from the day that the silver devil descended.

The students recorded their most disastrous defeat in the history of the night study.

***

Owner, owner! That guy getting ragdolled, innt that the male vice-pres?

It is.

The first day after initiating Plan A.

After I finished the class for fourth years, I noticed students getting stomped on by other students in the hallways.

If it was my past life, this would be the time to call 117, no area code(1), but this situation is somewhat different.

The vice-president of the student council, the man they called the Trickster, Risen was currently rolling on the ground while making a euphoric face.

And the ones who were stomping on him were the other student council members who got backstabbed last night.

To think hed be this happy when all he did was come to school two hours later.

But he gets ta go home five hours earlier, dont he? Thats something to be happy about.

Ahahaha! Even as he happily laughed while getting stomped on, his happiness was on the verge of tipping over into insanity.

And the fellow vice-president Karen in particular whose face was several times more enraged than the others was aiming specifically for his family jewels, yet hes still laughing?

Risen, was he impotent or something?

Bursting is normal when those are stomped that hard!

But still ownerr. Doesnt that mean Plan A is useless now? Finally my time to shine?

The metal bat looked up at me with a look of expectation.

Hoho, this little brat!

Thats not going to happen, so give up.

Uwiing really?

What the heck is uwiing.

Yes. Plan A just began, why would it be ineffective?

The kids that sold out are already out, arent they? Looked like they were holding public executions in every classroom.

Its not looked like, you could hear screams coming from everywhere you went in the fourth years classrooms, where the majority of the traitors were from.

And the scariest thing was, the people that were making those screams were also laughing hysterically.

How should I put this, it feels like the time when I raised those kids in the organization a couple of years ago, when all I did was not feed them and they awoke to using sword ki all on their own?

Night study was a part and parcel of your average Hell Joseons student, but here the students are looking like theyre dying.

They havent even reached the gates of hell, you know?

I still havent gotten to say the line [hey, thats hell youre walking into,](2) but youre giving me problems if this is how youre all going to work?

Ownerth way too hardcore.

Im serious.

And that afternoon, as I expected, the effect of Plan A was spectacular.

I didnt choose the most important people as the traitors, but the stronger mid-tier students.

When I chose the students that linked the strategies that tied the operations between the middle floors and the higher floors together as the traitors, their movements were markedly slower than before.

Thanks to that, the teachers had an easier time of defeating the students as well.

Have the traitors backstab on one day, and then weaken the students fighting power even further by their absence the next day.

Kaaahhh~ look at this perfect strategy!

And the next day.

Ill do it! Pick me!

M, Miss Aris?

The person who slammed open the door to my office, Aris, shouted at me with a very aggrieved yet very jealous expression.

What is it that you were going to do?

Betray! Ill be tonights night studys traitor!

And starting from Aris, the student council, and even the ordinary students came to me demanding to become traitors.

-Is it the kids fault that theyre coming to you to be traitors, or is it owners fault for making it that way?

Since Ive done nothing wrong, this is all the students fault!

-As I thought, this is owners fault!

Was the answer already set for you or something?

No but seriously, no matter how you look at this isnt this 100% the students fault?

None of them have any sort of camaraderie, so that simply exempting them from the night study is enough for them to backstab each other!

These disloyal kids!

Back in my day when we ran from night study, when the teacher didnt know of one person that ran with us, the rest of us all told on him and we were all yelled at together!

That was true camaraderie where we all got yelled at together and looked after one another!

-I cant read owners mind right now but I get the feeling that youre spouting the bullshit of the ages

-Shut up and gather more mana. Youll probably have to use it once the holidays start.

-Wiing wiing! Its finawwy time for this goddess Arcadia to take center stage!

Thanks to that teacher named Teruterus demonic suggestion, Ive finally come up with a way to use the metal bat.

Raise their fear yet not their despair, on the contrary, a method to make them struggle even harder to run away from night study!

-Dat teachers a devil too.

-Although its because of that you can come out.

-Hes an angel! Hes totes gotta be an angel following the goddess Aru!

Look at that stance change.

That aside, where previously I havent had more than twenty students come to my office since school started, over two hundred students have been to my office today alone.

Seriously, not for anything else, but two hundred kids all coming to request to be a traitor?

Werent there around 1300 students at this school? But 200 already?

So the traitor hopefuls kept on coming, and thinking well of their enthusiasm I continued with Plan A.

Karen, how could you!

Risen, this was exactly what you did to me.

The female vice-president icily looking down onto the Trickster.

N, not Lady Aris!

You cant do this to us!

I cant help it either. I also want to experience the thing called freedom.

Or Miss Aris, skilled enough to go toe to toe with Professor Aruhan on a daily basis, now fighting in combination with him to annihilate the entirety of the first years.

Hang on a second! Isnt the student council president betraying us just aint right?

Shut up! The student council president also has the right to freedom! How dare a traitor thats already experienced a day off night study dare talk back? Are you going to take responsibility if Professor Nicerwin doesnt choose me as a traitor because of you?

Driving back the students with the power of eight high-ranked spirits, even the student council president Nerkia!

Let alone the ordinary students, but also the student council. And since even the student council president, who can be said to be the representative of the students all became traitors, it became a situation where everyone fervently wished to become a traitor.

Thanks to that, when they werent the traitor themselves, all the students were wary as to who might blindside them and so took their distance from the other students even while fighting the teachers.

Although their teamwork fell as a result, their gains as individuals skyrocketed!

The traitors have practically set the school ablaze! And at times like this, of course the thing you should do is pour oil onto the flames!

-This is Professor Nicerwin. From today onwards, we will be offering a special present for those participating in the self-directed night study.

Five PM.

I halted the students that were moving towards their clubs or other activities in order to avoid doing the after-school classes.

-People have been complaining how the traitors have been receiving far too many benefits.

Of course, not now. Because currently everyone wants to become a traitor.

-We will be answering that question. From today onwards, a special rule will be applied. The rule is simple. From now on, we will be giving out a Traitors Mark to students who have been assigned the traitor role.

There are many people who want to become traitors.

But if there are too many traitors, then wouldnt that become a separate force rather than traitors?

That was Plan X. The last resort for if the students became overwhelmingly stronger than the teachers.

We would divide the students half and half into two teams, and only let the winning team escape, but then over half the school doesnt participate in the night study.

Then what we need to do is find a method to make everyone happy with the least number of people.

That method was!

-Those who manage to escape with a Traitors Mark, or manage to hold onto it until the end of night study can enjoy the privileges of a traitor.

The reaction was explosive.

Its here! A ticket! This guy was a traitor! Now I kuhhk?

Moron. As long as you have a ticket youre also a traitor.

There were people who specifically hunted traitors to collect tickets.

Wh, why between fellow traitors

Actually, I wasnt a traitor.

There were people who collected tickets by fooling traitors into a traitors alliance, taking them out and collecting their tickets.

Now now, fifty meal tokens. Fifty meal tokens and a ticket is all yours!

There were even people who traded material goods for tickets.

And the student council, who was supposed to be guiding them were.

Now, theres almost certainly a traitor among us.

Its not like there can possibly be anyone stupid enough to just stand up and shout Im a traitor! here, is there?

And even if the traitor was caught, theyd still have to fight the others.

Yep, so.

The last man standing takes all!

The student council members were holding survival deathmatches between themselves.

-Itza shitstorm.

-That it is.

-How longre ya gonna do this for?

-Until you show up, of course.

Meaning, until the holidays started.

The days of students backstabbing fellow students continued.
