NovelEnglishDuke, Liz, Henry, Mel, and I remained in the classroom to discuss the topic.
Duke’s magic prevented anyone from entering the classroom. He had also magically removed the stench of rotting rats.
Was there no limit to Duke’s magic power…?
Nevertheless, I envied him; magic was really useful. And it was also the only thing I couldn’t get through hard work.
Mel raised her hand and said, “Here, here!” as I was thinking about this.
“Why don’t we quickly put up a sign on the bulletin board saying that a new law was to be enacted?”
“That would require a lot of procedures.”
Henry immediately chimed in.
“You know, you guys are the ones keeping order in the school, right?”
“Yeah.”
Duke nodded at my words.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Well, if that’s the case, then do we really need to make it into a law?”
“”””What?”””
Everyone except Duke shouted in surprise.
They have been trying to make a law, but when I said this to them out of the blue, they were surprised.
I added so as not to mislead them.
“Since the Alicia and Liz factions are not widespread among commoners and nobles in general, why not make it a school rule?”
“Then we can’t make the punishment too severe, can we?”
Mel disapproved of my opinion.
“People might die next time!”
Mel spoke in a threatening tone.
If Alicia and Liz ever find themselves in a position to run the country, it would be better to make it a law. However, the issue is currently limited to the academy. This fact could not be changed.
I think it was a mistake to make a law based on what was happening in the academy. This was probably the little feeling of discomfort I had a while ago.
“Just give them harsh penalties. School rules exist to keep the students safe.”
Everyone agreed with Duke’s statement, and Mel also gave a small click of her tongue but didn’t argue.
“What are we going to name the school rules?”
Mel answered loudly to Liz’s question.
“No violent fights between Aliali and Liz’s group! However, disputes are allowed! If you break it, I’ll sew their lips shut!”
No, you shouldn’t do that.
“Oh, are you sure you want to go with that?”
Liz’s face was covered in anxiety, and Henry’s face was contorted as well. Duke and I were the only ones who were calm.
“Is that okay?”
Oh, wait, are you sure about this!?
I stared at Duke in surprise. I didn’t think he would agree to it, or rather that Duke wasn’t thinking along the same line of thought as me.
“Yes! That’s a given!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMel exclaimed in delight. I stared at Duke, unable to say anything.
Duke, you’re so random! I gave him a look that said, “Duke, is this really alright!”
I wondered if this would make the conflict go away, but he didn’t seem to care.
Well, it would certainly stop the fights, but would he still be okay with such a school rule?
“It’s just an awkward school rule, it’s OK!”
“Why “OK!”? Besides, it’s not just a little awkward, it’s pretty ridiculous!”
I couldn’t take it anymore and poked Liz Cather.
“I don’t think so. It’s a school rule with her name on it, you know? Wouldn’t Alicia be happy about that?”
I could only imagine Alicia’s reaction to those words.
Indeed, with a sparkle in her eye, she would say, “A school rule with my name on it? That’s great! I finally did it!” She would be overjoyed.
But that’s another story. It would be better to have a school rule with a different name. Something like, “No violent conflict between people with different ideologies”.
Why bother putting personal names in there? And why didn’t anyone try to stop it?
I knew that everyone here has a screwed up brain, but I didn’t expect it to go this far…
I made eye contact with Henry. He seemed to understand what I was trying to say and nodded deeply.
I gave him a look that said, “Give me a helping hand”, but he showed a smile that said, “I can’t do it”.
…Don’t give up.
