Ee~to, What happened? . . . . Oh that’s right ! Nagi-chan!
I rush out of the bed and try to go outside.
“Please wait, Ruina-san. Where are you going?”
“Of course I am going to Nagi-chan ! I need to hurry . . . .”
Or Nagi-chan will be killed.
I buried that thought.
That is the worst outcome.
“. . . .Ruina-san,it must be a terrible time for you, but please listen. Akade institute has decided to abandon Nagi, though that may be a harsh way of saying it”
. . . What the? What the hell is she saying?
I refuse to accept that.
“Judging by your reaction, Its that black haired lady with two sheep like horns who also killed your mother, made that barrier. Isn’t it?”
Director Firu is one of the few people that knows the truth about what happened 5 years ago.
“If you understand that, then ! ? Then you know how dangerous that woman is. Nagi’s life is in trouble!. . .”
“For this reason. Me and you are absolutely no match for that woman. While we were there we were useless. Fortunately Linde had no trauma it was only her clothes that were bloody. All the other students have already evacuated. The only people on the island anymore is Nagi”
Linde-chan didn’t die?
That’s good but then where did that blood- – –
“If Linde wasn’t wounded than is that blood, Nagi’s blood?”
“No. Awhile ago, Linde-san woke up and told us that she was seriously wounded but Nagi-san healed her.”
It’s unbelievable that that woman would leave an opening for healing.(あの女がそんなスキを与えてくれるとは到底思えないけど)(TN:Meh’d)
“Also Linde said that Woman had no intention of harming others, but only wants Nagi’s life.”
I heard Firu’s words and was on the brink of fainting again.
Why!?
Why does she want to snatch away my special someone!?
“Even so , That’s why you said to abandon Nagi !?!? Director Firu, aren’t you still an educator !?!?”
*PAN* A dull pain emerges on my cheek.
Did Director Firu just slap me in the face?
“Do you. . . . think that I do not feel anything?.”
Her voice was shaking.
“I truly didn’t want to abandon Nagi !But . . .but we couldn’t do anything! My duty as director of this academy is to protect the staff and students.I could not afford to put them in danger. And if i were told to choose between 1 life or many other lives, I must take the latter. We couldn’t win so there was no choice but to abandon Nagi. . . .”
I heard the grievous cry from Firu.
I understand her thoughts, however.ーーー
“But still I will go. It doesn’t matter that there is no chance of winning. I am Nagi’s everything. There is no meaning in living if Nagi is dead. So therefor. . . “
“. . . You’re going regardless?”
“Yup, Oh also, Firu you don’t need to come, you have to protect everyone from your school. Besides, that woman will kill me regardless of, if i have company or not.”
“Such determination. . . I understand, I won’t say anything else. Do as you like. . .”
Wait for me ! Nagi-chan. I will definitely save you.

-Director Firu Pov-
“Well. . . aren’t you going?”
After seeing off Ruina-san i collapsed on the bed.
Tears were overflowing from my eyes.
I can not let my students or teachers see me like this.
Because i have to be the face of the academy.
However. . .
“Why. . . . why did this happen? . . .”
I can’t stop myself from whimpering out a weak tone.
Right before me, Two people are going to die.
And in addition, its my student and former student.
I couldn’t protect them . . .
As Ruina had said. I am not qualified to be an educator.
The island is used for summer training camp is under the control of the Academy.And during the training I placed a huge barrier around it.
Therefor there should be no dangerous event. I made light of the situation.(そうタカをくくっていた)(TN:i try.)
Even so,An intruder easily came in and put the life of my students at risk.
That is only an excuse though. . .
“Director Firu, Are you okay?”
I wonder, how long was she here?
Mure sat right next to me on the bed.
“Mure, Why are you here ?. . .”
“I saw Ruina-san running from here. So it seems that Director-san wasn’t able to persuade her.”
“Please Laugh if you want to laugh. I couldn’t even stop 1 former student.How pitiful I am.”
“I don’t plan on laughing.Concerning Ruina, she can only see Nagi. Trying to stop her is impossible in the first place. I don’t think even god could stop her.
“. . . .Mure, You are awfully calm. Despite the fact that your close friend left to die.”
“Oh, do you see that? Perhaps you are growing old.Do i look like that?”
When i looked close enough her fist was clenched so much that her fist were red and her teeth were also clenched.
“ . . . It is frustrating that i am afraid. A student and a close friend and i can’t even save them .If that’s the case i want to be full of rage and fired up. But what we do now is not that .It is not even crying . We should prevent this from happening again, don’t you think? “
“ . . . .”
“Well, that wasn’t so bad. I got to complete my preach to the director.”
“No.Thank you very much. You are right.”
“All right!, I will go to the students.I get all hot and bothered when not around them for awhile.”
“Right….. Still, can’t you do something about your word choice??”
“My bad, it’s something I’ve done my whole life. Give up on changing it”
