Much better than being alone in a table.
Earlier, when Kyouko-san was fighting, she didn’t purposely send any hostilities to the young ladies and their bodyguards
Margo-san said.
Therefore, the young ladies who never had experience watching people fight and bodyguards who lack training couldn’t say that our fight was dangerous at all. To them, they see it as professional wrestlers on stage There’s an intense fight right in front of them, though.
Yet, they think that it’s all just a show?
Didn’t Reika-oneesan say it herself that it’s an exhibition match? And so, they think that it’s nothing but a practice match. The young ladies only thinks of Reika-oneesama and Kyouko Messer as celebrities on Television. They think of it as fiction? So they see the fights happening on television as Kyouko-san and Rei-chan playing around? as Fabricated fights? Not really. People hardly care if it’s real or fiction
Hardly care?
What’s important is their relationship with them. If it doesn’t affect their life, even if the other country is at war, they only think, Oh, I see. People can’t tell the difference between real war and a murder case in a show, see?
If it’s unrelated to their life, then they don’t care if it’s real or not.
On the other hand, they feel sympathetic to anything pitiful in fiction, saying Poor -chan and such. It’s nothing but fiction, nobody died in real life
yeah.
A movie director back then carried out an experiment during a school lecture
Margo-san said.
At first, they had some old fashioned Shakespearean playwright. And in that historical drama, the names of the British nobles who were killed in action are called out. He handed the lines to one of the students and told read this Okay. And since we’re talking about the middle ages in Britain, the names were exaggerated since it’s a rose war. Naming them Prince and Duke Therefore, the reader laughed, and those who were listening aren’t serious about it either Well, yeah.
It’s an old fashioned list of names of dead people, getting serious while reading it is hard.
Then, the same student was handed a list of people who died on a recent great earthquake and told to read it
People who died in an earthquake disaster?
This time, the names read Machi -san or Mura -san The student reads the names nervously and with care, the students who were listening turned quiet and listen earnestly
Margo-san looks at me.
Why were they laughing at those killed in action in a Shakespearean historical drama, but turned serious when they started reading names of those who died in the great earthquake?
That’s.
Because the great earthquake happened for real and the names of the dead have died. As for the play, it’s because it’s fiction?
Margo-san smiles gently.
Shakespeare’s work is a play, but the rose war was a real war. The names of those killed in action in the play were real people who died. It’s not fiction, they were all real people who died
Real people.
In a sense, the two are the same.
The students turn quiet when the names of the people who died during the great earthquake because it’s still clear in their memories. It might be someone in school or their family or a friend who died Therefore, they accept it sincerely. The names of people on Shakespeare’s age, during the rose war, were people from their father or grandfather’s era. Therefore, the names of the people who died in that war don’t seem real for the audience at that time. It’s just names of those who were killed during their ancestor’s era People will get serious if it’s close to them at the moment.
If they think it’s unrelated to them, then they don’t pay attention, even if it’s real.
Lastly, the movie director told the student to read the names of the list of people who died during in the historical drama with the same emotion as those who died from the great earthquake Then, the student starts to read the Count who died in battle, which they laughed at earlier. Those who listen starts listening with serious intent as well I see. Everyone can see that Kyouko-san’s strength is real. But, if they don’t sense hostility, they’ll only accept it as a fun show. That’s how ordinary people see it
If it’s just a show, then they won’t care about it after it’s over.
They can have fun talking with Rei-chan.
They don’t care about the meaning of the fight.
What’s frightening about Kyouko-san is how she can do that easily. Those who sensed the meaning of that fight will no longer be cautious of Kyouko-san if they see her next time
Ah.
For example, if they meet Kyouko-san on a hotel somewhere.
The young ladies will only see her as the happy go lucky lady who had a match with Rei-chan on an event created by Kouzuki house.
They only think of her fights with Rei-chan on TV as a promotional campaign from Kouzuki SS.
Then.
Oh, right. Back then, she didn’t show any hostility. Therefore, I can trust her, or so they think.
The scariest person in this world are those who come close to you without showing any hostility. And even more frightening is the idea that the person is coming at you with kindness. People are weak to those they see as kind to them Margo-san said. Then, once they slip their hand to your pocket, they change suddenly
If you think that person isn’t an enemy and that person likes you.
You’ll get backstabbed right away.
Yoshida-kun, how do you feel about Kyouko-san and me?
That’s.
Do you sense hostility? Do you think that we’d do something evil on you? I don’t
Instead, I see you as someone who has goodwill and is kind.
See? You’re dancing in Kyouko-san’s palm. Maybe in mine too
Margo-san laughed.
Those who send their hostilities your way are nothing big. You will have to fight your real enemies from now on
Enemies who are pretending to be friends with you.
And as soon as you lower your guard, they’ll backstab you.
Kyouko-san shows off a fight like that to test the young ladies and their bodyguards for today. Who’s easy to fool and who noticed the plans we had
Some sensed that there’s something wrong on why Kyouko-san, an absurdly strong person, purposely shows off a fight that looks like she’s fooling around.
It’s not about people’s abilities. You need insight, as well. Some of the bodyguards there have become strong through training. But, even if they had strength, if they got caught in Kyouko-san’s trap, they’re useless. Instead, Kyouko-san looks at those who aren’t that strong and yet have insight Margo-san looked at the courtyard and said. You can improve strength with some training, but girls who don’t have insight have it in their nature. Your perception is the only thing you can’t train with other people. You can’t get better unless you understand it Insight. Earlier, about the bodyguard groups you mentioned. It’s not three but six
Six.
First are those who gather around Rei-chan and me, those who didn’t notice Kyouko-san’s swindling. They’re real fangirls. Those who are in the school just to deal with the bullies by name
Girls who don’t have insight and were assigned as bodyguards due to her family lineage.
However, their strength is unknown. They probably are strong when you send them to training. But they’re likely useless in actual combat, or they just become a dead weight to their allies
I see.
The second one is those who are still making a fuss with us, but they noticed Kyouko-san’s plans. They’re scary. They saw Kyouko-san’s real strength, and so they purposely fake having fun to protect their masters They prepared themselves and pretend to be having fun. The third ones are those who hadn’t noticed Kyouko-san’s plans and stayed with their Masters. They don’t know what’s happening. They can’t point out how fearsome Kyouko-san is, nor they can’t point what’s the meaning of our match, but they think Kyouko Messer and Kouzuki SS aren’t that big of a deal. I’m stronger Oh, the real idiots. The fourth one is those who noticed Kyouko-san’s plans and is protecting their Master with maximum cautiousness. They’re standing around, watching out for the dangers coming to her and her master. Well, they pass as bodyguards, but they’re uninteresting Yeah. The fifth are those who didn’t notice Kyouko-san’s plans, but they got excited from watching our fight. Then, they’re thinking of abandoning their master and finding a new one. They’re like a child who watched a hero movie and wanted to become a hero themselves, see? Basically, they saw us fight and hallucinates that she wants to get stronger as well Oh, the most troublesome type.
