Even if Ange and Machina had no intention of grouping together Saya naturally
tied them together
As Class Rep Sakae drove the entire class out before leaving himself
The rumors were true She’s in the auditorium
He locked up the classroom as he explained
Shirohara-senpai was there
Megutono Academy had an elementary middle and high school and they each had their own opening ceremony to get through so there was a real motivation to speed them all along
Each ceremony was scheduled to begin in the auditorium an hour apart so that luckily meant the headmaster could not give too long a speech It unluckily meant they were rushed in and out
This time no one was paying a lick of attention to the headmaster’s mercifully short speech
Almost everyone was watching the one student standing alongside the teacher’s on the side of the auditorium stage
And next we will have a greeting from the Student Council President
The headmaster stepped down from the stage and a broadcast club member made that announcement
Excitement filled all of the middle school students in the auditorium
She moved across the stage
Not only was she beautiful but her hips were positioned incredibly high which gave her a strange intensity as she walked Her light brown hair fluttered elegantly behind her which filled everyone with tension as they watched She bowed toward the national and school flags hanging behind the stage and straightened up Everyone naturally straightened their back as she faced them
I would like to begin by greeting you all
Her speech had a mysterious ability to draw people in
At the request of Previous Student Council President Tanaka Kozue I have returned to my position of President today I am Shirohara Ren
It was the same as the year before
Mutsuki was especially tense
I left this school before but I have returned for this term and will do what I can
to give you all a proper school life
She was speaking through a microphone but every last person listened attentively as if she were facing and speaking to them personally
This term will be busy with the cultural festival athletic festival and other events and it is time to focus on trial exams and your studies for the 2nd and 3rd years With so much to do it will not be an easy term It felt like being admonished by their mothers In a word it was a comfortable speech
But it was more than just kind It also contained a strength that seemed to burn their ears
That imposing girl’s words were always like this
My name is Lavriel Baran I am Miss B of the FeTUS Witches as well as daughter of the proud Baran family which has left its name in 350 years of British history
You may call me Dame Lavriel
She had spoken to them when he had met her at the campground on that day halfway through summer break and those words still rang vividly in Mutsuki’s ears
This reminded him that they really were the same person
A gloomy feeling rose in his chest and he bit his lip
Shirohara Ren had left the school in March but she retained enough influence to gather everyone’s attention with a single speech She had been Megutono
Academy’s Middle School Student Council President for the previous year
And Mutsuki had secretly looked up to her
But she was Miss B of the FeTUS Witches
She was part of an organization that was targeting him
FeTUS was a relatively trustworthy group and Mutsuki at least did not feel all that nervous about them He had even visited their headquarters without a bodyguard
He was on friendly terms with Machina aka their Miss E
But it was still a complicated feeling
That ends my greeting Thank you very much for listening
Ren finished her model speech as boldly as ever
She bowed toward the audience bowed toward the flags behind her and then descended from the podium And as she did
Mutsuki thought she briefly looked his way so he quickly looked away
Adolescent Adam 6 Chapter 2 - Arrival of Student Council President Shirohara Ren
Shirohara Ren had served as Megutono Academy’s Student Council President through the previous year
At the time she had been known as History’s Greatest President
She got excellent grades and was skilled at sports She was the lacrosse team’s ace and she was beautiful to boot That alone would have been enough to make her the school’s most prized student
But her excellence as President had come from another talent her superb leadership
Her mere presence had a way of whipping people into shape Her naturally lofty aura filled people with tension
She could be a little hardheaded herself Whenever someone confessed their love to her she would give them a lengthy lecture about how a student should be focused on their studies so she could be inflexible She gave off a strict atmosphere but that did not seem like a bad thing unless you were truly up to no good Everyone had sensed a slight disturbance of the public morals after she had left this spring
She was of course incredibly popular
Her light brown hair and bright white skin gave her an almost ephemeral look but her slanted eyes held a shocking depth
