Editing Hidan no Aria:Volume12 1st Ammo



Only hearing of an “important announcement” and following Takamagahara sensei and co. to the headmaster’s office... I di...didn’t think that the headmaster actually personally announced that he would deal with us.... . This really let me have a feeling of suddenly getting attacked.

Quitting school---This, this indeed is an important announcement.
And hearing these two words, the me who inadvertently forgot Butei High’s rule of “not casually asking questions” of teachers, hurriedly asked “Yes... Quitting school?”

The two teachers, Takamagahara Yoshi and Ranbyou, who were standing at the side looking at me, and also Reki whom the headmaster announced would be quitting school with me, were all silent.

“Yes, Yes. However, this is not due to your problematic actions, I hope that you all will not have misunderstandings on this point” Headmaster Midorimatsu mechanically nodded his head, continuing with a personless, unimpressionable voice saying “Both of you have twice submitted notice of changing schools to the school authorities. During the first submission, the school authorities rejected on account of incomplete submission, but this is not true. This way of handling things is in fact like a habit, and encapsulates not only the school authorities suspecting that someone could be making a fake, but also because we hope that the student can reconsider before submission.

The school, did indeed let me resubmit my application. However.. when comparing the fact that this was actually the faculty’s artful hand, what surprised me more was that---Reki actually also submitted a notice of transfer.

“Reki, you...” I inadvertently turned my line of sight and looked at the blankly gazing Reki at my side. She turned towards me “Kinji, as I have said, I, am yours. The loyalty of the Ulus is, eternal. No matter where Kinji goes I will be the one who will always be with you, and I will  live and die with you” not caring that she was in the midst of the headmaster, uttering Reki-speak.

Takamagara-sensei, misunderstanding this speach, “Woah” and blushed, while one of Ranbyou’s eyebrows twitched....

Like that, I indeed felt that Reki had once said something like that. Concluding from what she just said--- even if I left the school, Reki would still follow me...

“Wanting to transfer from Butei high to a normal school, is extraordinarily difficult” Headmaster Midorimatsu said, not reacting to Reki’s words “Originally, we should let students transfer at the end of March together... if it was like that however, the accepting school’s secretaries would rush towards the Education committee together. Mainly to complain that students from Butei High are poor in studies, are uneducated in societal norms, and that the percentage of those leaving the school is high. Butei High has therefore submerged into a crisis of banned schools. After all in educational society, Butei HIgh has not received proper recognition and understanding."

Err...Headmaster, I on the other hand feel that other schools do understand very well. Our school was indeed full of weirdos.

“Therefore, the issue of transferring schools, has been changed to a method where a small group of students are transferred over a period of time, and in secret. But due to this, there would be students who would leave before April’s weapon renewal registration period. No matter whether it is actual weaponry, as long as students posses the pass... they will be ostracized. And if other schools know that the students come from Butei High. they will definitely not allow them entry.”

Although I could understand the concerns of normal schools, but this is..........discrimination.

However---based on article 8 of Butei law “protection of personal information’, the humanities department have been saved the work of giving documents of  thanks. Although transfering schools is not allowed, but transfer students... that is students that have left school, will henceforth not be required to tell the school authorities which high school they came from. However this is a result that has arisen from  the usage of some budget, and the communication with and morals of  headmasters from every school.

Which also means that the law is thrown away, and they used cash to squeeze us into other schools. But what the headmaster said about “not doing this, Butei high school students will be unable to transfer schools” I already understood. Seems that on this point, I really am lacking in experience.

At this point, Headmaster Midorimatsu turned slightly suddenly to the side.

“Ah... Takamagahara-sensei, Ran-sensei. There is a fine school called East Ikekuburo High in the Toshima area right?”

“Yes indeed”

“Yes”

“....Ok, just now we slightly left the topic at hand , now back to the main topic”

Headmaster said, again looking at us.

Seems that, he has already spoken to the other school. This is an order to Reki and I, as students that are non-affiliated to Butei High, to go to that school on our own initaitive.

“Please rescind the decision”
Reki, who has the same mechanical tone as Headmaster Midorimatsu, suddenly spoke at this juncture.

“Kinji requested to change schools, and not to leave school, so please follow Kinji’s wishes in letting him change schools. Also, the same thing regarding the timing. Not the end of this month, please follow Kinji’s wishes and change it to end March of next year”

Hey, Reki....! You, didnt you listen to what the headmaster just said? Also, you keep putting Kinji at the edge of your mouth, why is it that you resist the headmaster for me?

Of course, Reki was totally right. But this is, Butei High, and this is the faculty. Not a place where logic comes through.

“----Reki! A little girl like you dare talk back to the faculty, you have some guts!"

The furious speech at the side was by Ranbyou, who after hearing this speech swished her ponytail, and then increased her voice. Takamagahara sensei who was also at the side gently said, “student Reki. Students who transfer schools all have to leave their school and then take an admission test for other schools” and advised her.

But standing straight at the original spot, Reki, dared to say “This are all problems of the school authorities. They have nothing to do with Kinji”.....haaa......spreading her killing intent.......!

Reki, do you mean to say that if it is not according to my wishes, you, you will even challenge to teachers?

And panicking at my side, Ranbyou’s killing intent suddenly became scary----Takamagahara sensei, also emanated a different feeling.

(This, this is getting worse.......!)
