4-29: -C: Ignorance is Bliss (2/2)

It was not because of the oddity of the situation that they shuddered. After all, they had not even been given the time to process that oddity.

The reason for their shudder was because the voice had suddenly come from behind them.

Almost by reflex, they took out their weapons and turned around, but

Slow

The people behind them were much faster and before they could turn around, they cried out in pain and were shot down to the ground.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

As the sound of their crash resounded, a small crater formed and the three students could be seen in it.

Ku, u, w-whats going on!? Someone seems to have gotten us from behind, but the radar didnt show anything at all! Youko said.

Nee-chan, this isnt good. Our wings got taken out. We wont be able to fly properly Yousuke said.

The impact of their crash was absorbed by their exoskeletons, so they were hurt a lot less than it looked, but the attack they received from behind heavily damaged their wings.

Because of that, although they might still be able to fly, fighting in the air was no longer an option.

Thats a problem too, but What was that all about?

Although Ryou acknowledged the problem, he looked up suspiciously at the shadow above.

After confirming the enemy that the sensors couldnt pick up, the Senba siblings looked up too, and when they saw the figure, they became shocked.

What? But we were sent falling down at the same time in different directions, right?

At the very least, our backs werent pointed at the same direction.

Right, but if thats true, then how come theres only one person() up there.

The person was wearing an exoskeleton with dark red visor and a blue-metallic armor.

The sharp design gave the impression of the military, but regardless, only one person had attacked them.

Hmph, Earthling brats. Dont be so full of yourselves just because you won against that little toy. Let me teach you what a real battle is like.

The enemy that sent them to the ground literally looked down at them.

Before those evidently hostile words, the three students stood up and braced themselves.

But because of the difference in their understanding of the situation, there was a stark difference in their state of mind.

The Senba siblings were elated to be able to fight against a real soldier because they still believed this to be part of the exam, but Ryou was just nervous because he knew this was a battle against a real terrorist.

Although hes fought with plenty of raybeasts, he rarely had mock battles with other humans.

He himself wanted to spar with other people, but his terrible behavior that stemmed from his grades gave him few opportunities to do so.

Thats why you want me to prioritize destroying the devices? Dont look down on me. Id understand running if it was against dozens of them, but if its just one, I can win!

Frustrated as he recalled his lack of combat experience against other people being seen through, he yelled and lifted his great sword.

Fighting in the air wasnt possible, so he kicked off against the ground to try and knock the opponent down too, but

Suddenly, a scream resounded from behind, and he was forced to stop.

Oh, no! The others!

The three of them were too focused on the enemy before them that theyd forgotten about the rest of class 2 B, who were cheering them just earlier.

They too had been attacked by enemies that couldnt be picked up by the sensors.

Damn it, Shinguuji! Its because you had to say all that stuff! Youko said it.

That was an unnecessary flag, Yousuke said.

Youre making this out to be my fault!? Ryou said.

Around 20 people, whove been hiding somewhere all this time, suddenly appeared and attacked their classmates, who were equipped only with simple exoskeletons.

Because the three people that could be called their representatives were suddenly shot down, the class of 2 B panicked and they couldnt react fast enough. As a result, they were now completely on the defensive.

Nee-chan, we need to hurry up and provide cover for them! Yousuke said.

Hey, hey, dont forget about me, said a voice from the side as their enemy sent out an attack.

Yousuke immediately blocked it with his Tekkou, but the attack went through it and he was sent flying.

GAH!? Yousuke said.

Yousuke!! Youko said.

Thats why you shouldnt be looking somewhere else in the middle of a battle, the enemy said.

But Ryou and Youko werent even given the time to swallow their breath. It was true that the siblings were near each other, but it was still too fast.

That enemy, whod just sent Yousuke flying with a Hammer-Type weapon, was suddenly standing beside Youko with a blade.

I dont know who it was that suggested it, but he really knows how to work people hard. Just like a certain examiner Seriously, I wish hed give me a break already.

That scheming smile of his superior every time he was given an annoying order.

For some reason, when Ryou remembered that, he grumbled and shook his head.

What have you been muttering to yourself all this time? Yousuke said.

Dont start complaining now just because you got caught up in this. Those guys wont discriminate between students, Youko said.

With their assailant back in the sky, the three got themselves back on their feet and turned their backs against each other.

At the same time, the siblings mistook Ryous grumblings for him complaining.

Thats not it at all! In the first place, you guys Hah? Hey, Im busy right now, call me late What!?

Shinguuji?

10 minutes? And youll Wait, dont just hang up!!

Ryous attention was suddenly taken up by something else, so the siblings were taken aback for a moment, but they were already used to it. They could tell that someone had called Ryou.

But as far as Ryou was concerned, someone had suddenly started a conversation with him and then just as abruptly ended it.

Hey, you two, which do you want to hear first? The bad news or the vague news?

Ryou asked with a sullen face that he hasnt shown until now.

That was enough for the siblings to know that something was wrong, but the way Ryou talked was still too ominous.

Uh, normally wouldnt there be a good news too? Youko asked. But whatever, give me the bad news!

Ah, yes, the stereotypical order. Okay, Ill make this short.

It was curious if it was because the three of them had stiffened up or because 2 B was resisting harder than theyd expected, but the enemies seemed to be waiting for something and werent making any big moves.

To avoid losing sight of them, the Senba siblings urged Ryou to finish saying his piece while the enemy was idling.

The use of skills within the fields is going to be prohibited right about now.

After a moment of silence, the siblings screamed.

Youre kidding!?!? Youko said.

I-Isnt that too much of a bad news!? Why!? Yousuke said.

As if Id know! If you have a problem, then let the examiner who decided this hear it! He said you cant use it anymore! Ryou said.

Ah, its true. I cant even open a communication screen anymore! Were not even allowed to use skills in this situation? This is even worse than last year! Youko said.

Now as for the vague news Apparently, if we can just hold for about 10 minutes, help will come, Ryou said.

Apparently? About 10 minutes? That really is vague, Youko said.

All the support systems and various attack methods were done via skills.

Most of the combat methods that theyve learned revolved around skills, and yet they were now being prohibited from using them.

On top of that, they were given a half-baked time and an equally unreliable notice of reinforcements.

It was certainly a bad news and a vague news, the older Senba could only laugh in disbelief.

But that expression didnt last long before she showed a completely different expression.

So, in other words, we just need to endure for the next 10 minutes, right? Then lets do it, she said optimistically, and the boys wryly smiled.

This was definitely his decisive and stubborn older sister, Yousuke thought.

Meanwhile, Ryou, despite knowing that she didnt understand the real situation, made a fed-up face and said, You make it sound so easy.

Lets start the timer then. Thats 10 minutes to go. Come on, guys. Lets endure this with the rest of 2 B too.

With a simple goal to aim for, Yousuke started the timer.

As he left the gradually decreasing time at the corner of his vision, the older Senba and Ryou rejected his proposal.

Hah! Ill take that guy down before any help comes! Ryou said.

Obviously! Lets go!! Youko said.

With a clear time limit before them, regardless of whether it was merely a bluff or enthusiasm, the older Senba and Ryou became heated up. Unfortunately, their enemy had disappeared again.

Regardless, it was in this way that the 10 minutes of the terrorist with a mysterious teleportation ability and the three students began.
