Chapter 41 School Trip (2)
The day of the school trip.
On the playground of Constell, there were a number of ready-made bus vehicles lined up side by side.
You have to take an aerial train to get to Kropol, but you have to take a bus to get to the train platform.
Constell’s students boarded the bus sequentially according to each class.
“… … Yes?”
Aten looked back without stepping into the bus.
Behind him was Frontier waving his hand. Cora was standing next to him.
“Next bus?”
“yes. Volunteering is a separate activity.”
Aten turned his attention to the teacher Jane, who was next to him.
Jane nodded too.
“The frontier student will wait for the next bus and then go with the other teachers. Did I tell you? It will be difficult to meet them during the school trip.”
“still… … .”
“Student Aten, get on board. It’s a pretty busy schedule until we get to Kropol.”
Aten reluctantly got on the bus as if her back was being pushed. Still, he looked at Frontier with an anxious face.
Frontier was still waving his hand with a smile.
“don’t worry. The next bus is coming soon.”
“… … I know.”
Aten turned her head as if she had no choice but to board the bus.
Watching the bus departing slowly along with the other buses, Frontier exhaled a light breath through his nose.
in between.
“Aster, look at this! Our news is up on Wizard View!”
On the bus from Class 2, Rooney showed the screen of the Sage Phone to Aster, who was sitting next to him, noisily.
As she said, in the news, the story of Constell’s school trip became a hot topic every day.
Lunia said with her eyes shining on the screen.
“Students at Constell are more likely to become famous professionals or hold high positions in the future, so they are very interested in the destinations.”
“Come to think of it, I think I heard something like that from an acquaintance.”
As Aster said so, she looked at the phone screen with Lunia. As he said, Constell’s school trips used to be a big deal in the Empire every year.
In particular, there was a lot of interest in the first-year students, who will be exposed for the first time under the name of Constell in a public place.

Not only the news, but also various media were talking about them.“Ah, what, ahaha! There’s also talk of Astor!”
“Ugh.”
The community was also talking about Constell, and Aster became their famous gossip. There was no reason not to talk about his outstanding skills and talents, plus his outstanding looks.
Aster looked a little embarrassed and looked away.
“There’s also the story of Elodie, and Oh, Atten-sama. What, don’t you have mine? Hmm… … .”
Lunia sticks out her mouth and manipulates the screen to find her story.
“… … Oh?”
Then I realized something strange and my hand stopped for a moment.
“why? Did you get any news?”
When Aster asked, Lunia shook her head.
“No, but there’s something about Frontier.”
“yes?”
“There are quite a few.”
Aster looked at Lunia’s pawn again.
There, the frontier’s name and face, personal information such as height and weight, and even the family they belonged to were all revealed.
Most of them praised Frontier, and there were even articles that were close to praise.
Runia said with a pimple.
“What, when did you say you became popular in Cropole?”
“… … Something strange.”
“yes?”
Aster looked at Rounia’s phone and felt he couldn’t do it, so he took out his phone and manipulated the screen.
There were certainly a lot of articles from Frontier. In terms of frequency, it’s just next to Aster and Elodie.
Moreover, even if it was just a compliment to Frontier, there was very little information about him.
Frontier’s front view, side view, back view, photos taken from all angles, and strangely many names of Frontier.
“Elodie, go Frontier.”
“yes. I saw it too.”
Elodie, who sat in the diagonal back seat, nodded at Aster’s words. She was also checking the posts right now.
Obviously, this sudden disclosure of information about Frontier was unnatural. It was just information that wasn’t really hidden.
‘Does anyone want to make the people of Cropole remember Frontier?’
… … no by the way
“… … But, Aster.”
“yes?”
“Why are you talking about Frontier to me? Selena is there if you want to hear her talk.”
Elodie narrowed her eyes and looked at Aster. Aster tilted his head and scratched his cheek.
“… … I know? Why?”
Elody didn’t like Aster’s reaction more than hearing a clear reason.

a few days ago.
Constell was excited about the upcoming school trip.
School excursions guarantee a sure break for students who are always tired of classes and training. Constell’s school excursions are clearly focused on ‘leisure’.
Preparations for the school trip were made steadily.
As a result, the atmosphere of the students also brightened, and the inside of the constell was dazzlingly bright with the expectations of the students.
However, it is always dark under the light to illuminate the bright daily life.
“Let’s start the meeting.”
A serious meeting was held in the conference room in Constell.
When Osfried announced the start of the meeting, the table in the center lit up blue. The light was entangled in bundles of lines, and gradually a map showing from Constell to the resort town of Cropole was revealed.
At this meeting, everyone was standing. It was to make a plan by checking the map and synthesizing everyone’s ideas.
“The president is active for some reason.”
Jane smiled warmly.
Osprit said.
“I hate cockroaches.”
It was figurative, but the message was clear.
Osprit lifted his head and looked at Frontier.
“Before we begin, in this operation, as previously mentioned, the Frontier de Roach forces are participating. He has a very important role.”
At Osprit’s introduction, Frontier bowed his head.
It was very foreign to have a frontier wearing a school uniform in this place, where everyone is a teacher.
Mother Malia glanced at Frontier and said:
“It would be dangerous for students to participate.”
“It’s okay. Frontier-kun will be in a very safe place.”
Malia was somewhat relieved by that.
This time Jane opened her mouth.
“Do you really think Indus will move during this school trip?”
“The chances are quite high. It’s a time when most of Constell’s students and faculty will be absent from the center. It’s clear how the Indus will react. Whether it is intense or gentle remains to be seen.”
He nodded at those words, and it was Pascal who opened his mouth this time.
“then… … . This is probably the most vulnerable position.”
Pascal pointed to a place on the map on the table. Everyone looked at the location and narrowed their brows.
“Aerial trains… … .”
A sheer cliff, a cliff that puts down darkness without knowing the end. An aerial railroad that connects that long gap.
If the Indus were to attack Constell, the moment the students passed by this train would be the most dangerous.
“To get to Kropol, you must take the public railway. Will we be able to fully respond?”
“The defense magic is complete. Any attack will not leave a scratch.”
“Of course, the contrast line is also-”
The teachers talked to each other. In order to fully cope with external attacks that occur while passing the train.
Osprey, who had been silently listening to it, opened his mouth.
“Yes, Frontier-kun.”
He suddenly called Frontier. Everyone’s eyes turned to Frontier.
“What do you think?”
This was surprising. Osprit gave the right to speak directly to Frontier, who he thought would only participate.
Frontier spoke slowly.
“The defense will definitely be there. but,”
“but?”
“Nothing will happen on an aerial train.”
Everyone was surprised by Frontier’s words.
teacher Isamaya asked.
“Nothing is going to happen, just watching the students of Constell pass peacefully?”
“I think so.”
Heh, Isamaya tilted her head as if she didn’t understand.
Pascal asked.
“Why do you think so?”
“They don’t want the Constell students to die. More ultimately, you want students to kill someone else.”
“… … Student Constell kills other people?”
“Now they have an item that might be possible.”
Everyone’s eyes widened at Frontier’s words.
“Business card!”
Frontier nodded.
“This item was obtained by the Kraken at best by breaking into Constell. I will definitely use it. But now the only command they can give is ‘Kill the Frontier’. Besides, Constell’s students are very wary of business cards because of the recent incident. It probably won’t work for students anymore.”
“Then how?”
“It does the opposite. We are distributing business cards to the citizens of Kropol, not the students. Before that, I’ll have to get the citizens of Kropol to get used to my face. There will be many ways. It’s a world where everyone has a sage phone.”
“… … Come to think of it, there have been quite a few stories about the Frontier students recently.”
Pascal said.
For a business card to be effective, the people who received it must know who Frontier is.
Of course, the one-time memory of scattering information on the phone won’t last long, but a few days will be enough.
“When students arrive in Kropol, the citizens who receive the business card will try to attack me, and there may be civilians who are injured trying to defend it. There must be some wind fighters who say they are over-repression. Of course, that’s not really what matters.”
“right. The important thing is that the students are bound.”
At Malia’s words, Frontier nodded.
“In order to suppress the citizens so that they do not get hurt, I and other students will be tied up, and the teachers will come forward to solve it. From a few seconds to a few minutes at most. In it, they will try to achieve their real purpose.”
“Real purpose?”
“I am not sure though. maybe.”
After saying that, Frontier raised his head.
he was thinking Should I say this now? Is it the right timing?
It was self-evident that the Indus would move faster than in the game for a revolution. After Armel was captured, they lacked the means to cover up the incident.
Since Indus’ plan has been revised, Frontier can no longer know every detail, but based on the information he knows, he follows Indus’ principle of action.
When that happens, the first step for the Indus revolution will probably not change.
“They are going to go after the president.”
“… … !”
The air in the conference room subsided.
The president is aiming for the ‘zodiac’ Osprit.
If these words of Frontier are truly true, then the Indus are far more savory than they thought.
“… … How do they go after the president? Dare like swings.”
Isamaya’s voice grew sharp. Because everyone in Constell has absolute support and trust in Osprit.
Knowing this, Frontier said in a cold voice on purpose.
“… … They also have a ‘zodiac’.”
What??
They also have Demi-Constellation??
