That was about three days ago.

 

During the morning assembly, the vice principal made an announcement.

 

“As you all know, this school is surrounded by magic called ‘thirstlessness’, which means that even if you don’t drink water, you don’t have to worry about it!

 

There’s an outside contractor coming in for three days starting today to work on this magic!

 

We’ll be working in the living quarters and the forest, so don’t get in the way!”

 

I didn’t know yet.

 

That this is my first test in this school, the Seven Days of Fire.

 

That, premonition.

 

From the principal and vice principal, to being the last declaration of war …….

 

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◆

 

The first day of “Seven Days of Fire”.

 

I woke up much earlier than usual, so I organized my materials and rechecked my own status.

 

My current level is 17, but looking back at the professions I’ve gained in the past, I’ve found that there are quite a few new skills.

 

“That new skill looks pretty good, I’ll have to try it out in class today.”

 

I thought it was time to go, so I went outside to get ready for school.

 

As we walked through the forest, a loud alarm rang out from the castle, the school building.

 

“I’m the headmaster of the Royal Pioneer Academy, Nekodran!

 

I hereby declare a state of emergency in my name!

 

From now on, for the next seven days, no teaching or exploration will be done!

 

Students, you are forbidden to leave your living quarters at all!”

 

“Declaring a State of Emergency” ……!

 

It can be issued by the chief executive officer of the academy when the academy is in a crisis.

 

For example, if a dangerous monster such as a dragon is confirmed in the vicinity, or if there is a conflict with the indigenous people, or if a plague spreads.

 

I hurried to the living quarters to see what happened.

 

But heavily armed guards were posted around the living quarters, and shields like an iron wall blocked me.

 

And if you look closely, those soldiers were classmates.

 

One person looks at me through his shield and smirks.

 

“‘Heh, you surprised me, you piece of trash.

 

We’ve been mobilized as the SS to declare this state of emergency.

 

If you perform your duties well, the headmaster will recommend you for the Kingsguard.”

 

“The SS has been delegated considerable authority.

 

I could have you beaten to death for trying to enter the living quarters.”

 

For once, I might be on the wrong side of the fence.

 

There are ten opponents, and they are fully armed.

 

Besides, if we let these guys get into the living quarters, the real guards will just rush in.

 

I guess I’ll just have to back off quietly here. ……

 

Then I saw two schoolgirls rushing towards me from the residential area.

 

It is, after all, or rather, the people that I know.

 

“Leo-kun!” “Master!”

 

When the state of emergency was declared, the two of  them were the first to worry about me.

 

But I was being thwarted by the SS, who treated them much more politely than I was treated.

 

“Monaka-sama, Kotone-sama, please return!

 

Especially during a declared state of emergency, you’ll need to follow our instructions!

 

Violating instructions can lead to a downgrade!”

 

However, this is not an opponent that such threats can be used against.

 

“Then, if I accept the rank down, may I go to Leo-kun’s house! If that’s the case, I’m willing to …… go as far as you want.

 

The SS clicks its tongue, “Tsk!”

 

One of them suddenly said something like this.

 

“Yes, ……, we’re above the students now, aren’t we?

 

Besides, you’re given the power to order your students around, right ……?”

 

“Well, then I can do whatever I want with these two!

 

All we have to do is cover our trash with it!”

 

“Great, we can clean up and the trash can be cleaned up ……, two birds with one stone!

 

I rolled my tongue.

 

To be able to think of something so instantly ghastly is a kind of talent, you might say.

 

“In the name of the SS, I order you to give Monaka-sama and Kotone-sama a physical examination!

 

An iron gauntlet reaches for both of their hands.

 

The two were huddled together, screaming.

 

“No! Don’t do that! What are you doing!?”

 

“Stop right now! The only one who can see our bare skin is our master!”

 

“‘…… I don’t know why I should look at it….”

 

I twirled the stone axe I had taken out of my coat.

 

…… zudoka, shhhhhhhhhh!

 

The big piece of armor that was about to attack Monaka and Kotone was blown to the side.

 

The gazes of those who were there focused on me.

 

“Leo-kun!” “Master!”

 

However, the girls’ figures were immediately covered up by the SS who jumped out from the side like an iron gate being closed.

 

“Oh, you’ve done it! You’re so weak, you’re so stubborn!”

 

“‘Hey, look at this guy, he’s got a stone axe!”

 

Seeing me standing with a stone axe in my hand, the SS laughed.

 

“Gyahahahaha! You’re going to stand up to our equipment with a rock!”

 

“Ihihihihihi! You can’t even scratch our steel shields with that!

 

“Hyahahahaha! Let’s show them what happens when you mess with the SS!”

 

I quietly slumped over.

 

“You’re the one who needs to be reminded. ……”

 

I looked up and glared at them.

 

“Let’s see what happens when you mess with Monaka and Kotone. ……”

 

From the bottom of my stomach, I feel anger rising up like magma.

 

I don’t care how you treat me, but I will not tolerate anyone messing with Monaka and Kotone.

 

The SS who were glared retreated as if they were uncomfortable, “Ugh ……!”

 

But one of them shook his helmet-covered head.

 

“Don’t let that unemployed piece of garbage scare you! We’re fully loaded!

 

I’m not going to be messed with by some caveman with just a stone axe!”

 

He throws down his shield, pulls out the steel battle axe he carries on his back, and challenges me.

 

And in the next moment, he was echoing a battle cry and a scream at the same time.

 

“‘Die gyuwā!!!?

 

He takes a counter blow, and his helmet pops off and his face crumples.

 

The SS is slammed face down on the ground as if it had been hit by a blow from a Titan.

 

The SS around me backed away with a “Whoa!” as if they were avoiding someone who had fallen from a height.

 

“‘Oh, no, you split my helmet with a stone axe!”

 

“Only we ‘Battle Axe User’s can do that!

 

And a pretty high level one at that!”

 

“‘No, no matter how high the level, you can’t break steel with a stone!”

 

I say to the guys, who are all scared out of their minds.

 

“It’s a strange coincidence, I’m also in the mood for being a ‘Battle Axe User’ right now. ……!

“I’m in a mood? You’re in the mood to pull off something like this?”

 

“Oh, no, ……! This guy’s too good to be true! He’s a monster!”

 

“R-….. run away ooohhhh!”

 

The SS relieved themselves of their duties and tried to escape with their crunching armor.

 

However, perhaps because the leader was not used to wearing heavy armor, he soon stumbled and fell, struggling like an upturned turtle.

 

“Sa-…… save me!!!!!!! !!!!”
