Feeling impressed by that fact, I laughed cheerfully and replied.
“More importantly, Acid! You’ve grown so tall without me seeing you!”
For a moment, his cheeks turned red and then returned to a cherry blossom color. Seeing his blushing cheeks, I felt like teasing him for some reason.
But Acid, looking at me seriously, said.
“Yes, I’ve… grown a lot.”
Hearing those sincere words, my heart began to beat subtly with an indescribable rhythm. I quickly moved my hand to the back and purposely playfully said,
“You’ve grown a lot! Yeah, awesome!”
“Really… is that bad?”
After muttering that, Acid nodded. Looking into his serious eyes… I felt a strange feeling.
I nodded and turned my gaze away, only to meet Leonhardt, who was spitting out orange juice from a cup, in the corridor.
“…Leonhardt?”
“Uh, uh…? I didn’t see anything. Keep going!”
‘What does he want me to continue?’
I tilted my head, but Leonhardt didn’t give any response.
I grabbed both of their hands.
Giving up on catching Martin and Burger today, I decided to play with Acid and Leonhardt.
“Let’s go to the trail behind our school!”
But…!
As we reached the trail, we found a scene where boys with fists as big as adult men were threatening a boy.
The boy’s face wasn’t clearly visible, but his voice was vivid.
“How much money did you make today?”
“Really crying, cry.”
“Hit him. Hit him everywhere except his face!”
It was literally a scene of school violence. I trembled, thinking,
‘Even though it’s a noble academy, how can school violence be so prevalent!’
Burger and the scene of school violence I witnessed just now, as a second-life child, I couldn’t tolerate such wicked school violence.
I clenched my fists, preparing to rush forward when I stopped abruptly. I saw the face of a boy in the middle of being attacked!
“The person beneath the feet! Burger!”
“Burger?”
“Yeah! My friend!”
No, a child who will become my friend!
I clenched my fist again.
But it was right at that moment.
Leonhardt went first. Perhaps having just finished the swordsmanship class, he had a small dagger in his hand.
“Sian, since you’re just, let me handle it for you!”
“I’ll take care of healing from behind! Please be careful, Miss Sian! It’s dangerous!”
Acid and Leonhardt jumped in instead of me. No, saying they jumped in would be a bit strange in this situation. Because Leonhardt’s fist was faster than words!
Dash!
The cheek of the boy who had been committing violence at school met Leonhardt’s hand.
The delinquent boy who seemed as big as a mountain when he harassed the math genius Burger now looked like a dry twig.
‘Wait, something’s odd.’
While Leonhardt and Acid were moving, I was free.
I decided to take on the role of watching to prevent a dangerous situation where violence is responded with violence from being exposed.
But it was precisely at that moment.
Near the trail, I saw a boy with violet eyes, Martin. Martin stared at me intently and grinned.
He looked at me and started fidgeting.
‘Come to think of it…’
In the original work, Martin was a collaborator with the Prince and the temple, using his power for sacred purposes.
He claimed that he had never done anything shameful in front of the gods, but there was one incident he felt embarrassed about.
It was about ignoring and tolerating the school violence taking place at the academy.
‘Martin, being as just as he is, and the protagonists he helps are also just characters, showing an episode where justice is instilled.’
Although his sense of justice conflicted completely with our family, it didn’t matter.
Teasing a person who values one goal was surprisingly not as difficult as one might think.
I stared at Martin intensely while maintaining a cold expression throughout.
His wavering gaze and my straightforward gaze met in the middle.
“Hello, Martin.”
“…Sian Mirmode?”
I took a step towards him. Fortunately, the disturbance near us seemed to be resolving more easily than expected.
I got up and ran towards him.
“You’re quite a just kid too, huh?”
By taking the initiative like this,
I aimed for the strategy of directly stabbing Martin, who was ‘cold and cynical,’ in the innermost part of his heart.
No one would notice the justice embedded in Martin’s inner self, so a strategy that directly pierced through had quite an effect.
He flinched.
“…Not particularly.”
“You came to save Burger, right?”
“…Sort of.”
I extended my hand for a handshake towards him and said,
“Let’s get along! I also believe that school violence within the school should be eradicated.”
