4-27: How the Weak Fights II (3/4)

4-27: How the Weak Fights II (3/4)

Shinichis group was just a few steps away from the group of three.

The three terrorists foolishly stood there in front of the whole class with their weapons undrawn.

They didnt even plan on taking advantage of their air superiority or distance themselves from them.

And so, inadvertently, a fed-up smile appeared on Shinichis face.

If these fools were merely at this level, then there was no need for him to support the students from the shadows.

What are you keeping quiet for!? Hurry up and answer, Earthlings! A terrorist asked.

Other than Tomoe and Shinichi, the rest of the students believed that this was part of the exam.

Because of that they werent intimidated and merely pondered how to deal with the situation at hand. No matter what the man that was most likely to be the commander of the enemy squad said, they remained on guard.

As such, they didnt have the leisure to answer their questions.

Wait, they dont even know who we are, so its normal for them to be afraid and confused, another soldier told the yelling soldier.

He had mistaken the students reaction for fear and confusion.

The moment they came here to confirm the explosion, theyd already checked the Status of the students.

After confirming that these were lower-ranked people, they didnt even recognize them as combatants.

And since they were commoners with no role in combat, it was a given that they would fear them. Because of that they didnt even realize that the students were tense not because they were afraid but because they were hostile.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

So it wasnt that they were being negligent, rather they had merely let their guard down because they were convinced that these students were non-combatants.

We are the Gaen Volunteer Army! We stand here before you today because of the worrying condition of the world! There is no need for Garesto to interact with the uncivilized and barbaric Earth!

Weve taken arms to petition the severance of all contact between the two worlds! We have no intention of attacking normal people such as yourselves, but we hope that youll be able to obediently answer our questions!

Despite the huge openings the three soldiers were showing, in some sense, they were much a stronger adversary to the students than the giant worm earlier.

Every stat of these soldiers were at least B Rank, and they were all equipped with military-grade exoskeletons.

They didnt have any of the fatal weaknesses raybeasts had that allowed them to reverse the situation in one blow.

Even without any weapons, the firm speech they gave was more than enough to make the students falter.

But

So, thats the kind of setting were using for this exam, Shinichi said.

Oh, of course, a student said.

For a moment, I thought they were being serious, a female student said.

Yeah, me too, a male student said.

That was all Shinichi had to say to make a joke out of their claims. The students faltered for a moment there, but after that one line, they were back on their feet.

In fact, some of the students were even amazed at how realistic the acting of the soldiers were.

Tomoe alone made a dumbfounded expression.

I see, so thats what theyre making this out to be Tomoe said.

Of course, the enemy wasnt about to just let themselves be done in like this either.

They upped the output of their exoskeletons to force their way out of their humans weighing on them and fly into the sky.

The torrent of photons released while forced down on the ground could easily change the situation depending on the person, and the students were easily blown away.

What a disgrace! What a humiliation!

A-Are these students sane!? Ordinary people with nothing but simple exoskeletons actually dared to attack us soldiers!?

These Earthlings dont even understand the difference in Status!!

After managing to fly back up, the soldiers were all furies and unbelieving.

They looked down at the students that had been blown away.

Although their faces were hidden by their visors, one could easily imagine how ugly their expressions were now.

Listen, you dummies! This is Earth and youre fighting Earthlings! Why should the common sense of your world apply here!? Are your heads screwed on right? Mocked a boy in a grating manner.

That boy stood at the center of the mixed class. Despite having the weakest Status among the students there, he acted the most self-important. When the soldiers realized that, blood immediately rushed to their heads.

Shinichis actions were mocking their common sense.

A pathetic All D dares mock us soldiers in the battlefield!?

You think anyone will spoil you just because youre a kid!? Ill make you taste pain enough for three people!?

When the soldiers tried to take out their weapons, it was then that they finally realized it.

That a great number of unknown weapons had been coiled around them.

Because of the sparks illuminating and the sounds resounding from those

Hmph! Dont react to everything your opponent says, you amateurs! Shinichi said.

They didnt even realize them until it was too late.

As Shinichis words resounded, so did their scream.

GUGYaAAaa!?!?

AGAGUGAAAaa!!??

HIGYAaAAAaa!!!

Fierce sparks surged up in the sky and wrapped themselves around the three terrorists.

Like that the electric shock from the anti-theft system of almost all of the weapons of the mixed class descended onto them.

Despite the exoskeleton, the pain delivered by the electric shock was a great ordeal.

The weapons had been tied up all around them as well, so they could only watch as they were thoroughly fried.

Before long that fierce electric attack even seemed to have penetrated their armor and paralyzed the functions of their exoskeletons.

At that, they boorishly fell to the ground, not a whiff of that grace one would expect from the high-tech armor.

GUAH, GAH, im-pos-sible

Uu, Aa W-What just, happened
