So we can treat it as normal garbage if we divide it up?
"""DODGE---!!!"""
The instant we saw the curtain being flipped, we quickly retreated from the middle of the battlefield to the sides.
After that, several large blades of wind flew in from behind, where we once was.
"You alright, Akihisa?"
"Yeah. It's the second time already, so we're kinda ready for it."
Since we knew the meaning behind the curtains, we more or less managed to predict it, so it is more or less easy for us this time.
"It looks like the other guys are alright."
"Seems that way."
There has been attacks using the power of the bracelets coming from behind; this is the second time I saw it, and the third for the rest. Of course, there are few losses, both for us...and the enemy.
"It looks like the enemy has understood our intents."
"Those observant ones probably picked it up, huh?"
Our allies, except for those on the frontlines, understood the secret regarding the curtain, but the enemy's not stupid. They may be shocked for the first time, realize it the second time, and believe it will happen at the third time. There might be someone amongst them reading our intentions.
"I'll be worried if they didn't. This is what we're aiming at."
"Hm, Yuuji, you're here."
While we're talking, Yuuji, in charge of leading the operation this time, walks to us. Goodness, this guy's strategy is endangering us again.
"Ya, Yuuji, you just bluffed me again."
"Oh Akihisa, you just got bluffed by me again."
Yuuji doesn't look apologetic at all.
Speaking of which, he did say something, 'just go while thinking that you're being bluffed' during a previous summoning war. We really got bluffed as a result back then."
"Don't you feel guilty bluffing me over and over again?"
"Haven't you gained any learning ability after being bluffed over and over again?"
Ugh...! This bastard's answers are always like that!
"Yuuji, you should be careful of what you say now. It's not wrong to say that your fate is in my hands."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, well, that. If I say that your relationship with Kirishima-san has evolved...well?"
If everyone in F class is to know about this, Yuuji's destiny will definitely come to an end.
In response to my words,
"Humph...how naive."
Yuuji merely scoffs it off leisurely.
"Where's that confidence coming from...?"
"No matter whether you say it or not, those girls won't just keep quiet about it, right/"
I was completely speechless.
"Th-That...doesn't that mean that my plan to reveal everything after my execution is useless...?"
"It's going to be an execution either way."
"I'm not shocked about it since I more or less expected it."
Guess I have no choice now. I'll just enjoy myself by executing alongside everyone else. Hopefully, this will be a happy execution to celebrate our victory.
"Instead of that, we need to plan ahead. Akihisa, Hideyoshi, return your summoned beasts and come here."
If we're returning our summoned beasts now, it means we're going to move somewhere. If it's a battle to decide victory, that means we're going to where Takashiro-sempai is, right?"
"Got it. Will be there soon."
"I too."
After checking the enemies and allies on the frontlines, Hideyoshi and I exit the field, removing our summoned beasts in the process, and return to where Yuuji is.
"We're back, Yuuji."
"How about explaining the strategy?"
"Ah, wait a moment. They're coming soon--oh, here they are."
I look over to where Yuuji's looking at, and see Himeji-san, Minami, Muttsurini and Kudou-san coming out from the school.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
"Why does it feel like I've been wait for orders the entire day?"
"...Ready to go."
