Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! (The Eminence in Shadow)

(35) Romantic View From The Rooftop

Author: Aizawa Daisuke

　I went to the roof once and looked down at the academy from there.

　I can see the school officials who have been detained in the large auditorium. The auditorium is a large hall that all students can easily enter. We hold entrance ceremonies there, and occasionally see plays and lectures by celebrities.

　A group of knights had gathered outside the school after hearing the commotion. However, it would not approach from a certain distance. That must be the limit of something blocking magical power.

　There seemed to be almost no one in the school building anymore. The men in black were just looking for hidden students. While looking at the state of the school, I burst out laughing.

　I wanted to do this.

　The academy being attacked, students being detained, a mysterious terrorist organization, and I looking down on them from the rooftop.

　My to-do list is complete.

"I look down from the roof"

　Achievement.

　Now then, what should we play until the evening?

　Actually, I thought when the man in black entered the classroom. They say they have no aesthetic sense. Why don't you show up in a long black coat in the middle of the day when the sun is dazzling, the sky is clear blue and the breeze is refreshing?

　Impossible.

　They have made a crucial mistake.

　That's right... They have underestimated TPO. Fashion is free, but if you don't understand TPO, it will be a fashion misunderstanding. They must be paralyzed for not respecting the TPO. The black long coat is fixed at night. I was originally planning to enjoy it slowly, so I have no problem taking time. It would be a shame if it ended early.

　I've decided on strategy 'Take it easy until the night'. When I was looking down at the school while thinking about such things, I found two men dressed in black walking down the corridor.

　Wearing a long coat all black in the middle of the day is lame.

　Yeah... let's play sniper.

　I cut a thumb size slime from my slime suit.

　Roll it up and fill it with magic power, lay it face down on the roof and set it up in dekopin style.

"You idiot, there's line of sight in there."

　I muttered so and played.

　Pishun, and.

　The slime bullet pierced through the head of the man dressed in black, leaving a sound that cuts through the air.

"Ah......"

　It also pierced the second man's heart. It is without two pieces.

　I wanted to shoot another shot, but I feel like I lost.

"Well, the next target is..."

　I set up a slime bullet and close one eye as if looking through a scope. I found an idiot walking in the school building across the street.

"Target confirmed, girl with pink hair... What is that?"

　Isn't that Sherry?

　What is she doing? She's walking while looking around restlessly, but it's obvious.
