The headmaster’s office of the Royal Pioneer Academy is the most luxurious of all the school buildings.

The furnishings glisten in the light of the chandeliers, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.

But those who were there were shivering and huddled together like stray cats in a winter alleyway.

“There is no more .. left to go! Perhaps the chancellor has begun looking for a new principal and vice principal ..!”

“The vice-principal too!? .. That means me too..”

“Why did you think you were the only one who could survive? Of course, Deputy vice-principal! You’ve screwed up too much, and you’re the only head teacher who’s been struck by the thunderbolt of judgment!”

“Even the acting principal looks like a pig!”

The two of them were about to get into a bad fight, but they managed to control themselves.

“This is not the time to be fighting ..!”

“That .. is right! If we don’t do something, we’re both finished!”

“Damn it, if only that trash hadn’t been there, none of this would have happened!”

“That’s right! I shouldn’t have done anything lukewarm like exile, but dropped him out of school!”

The two hate Leopin, but Leopin’s actions lead to an unexpected opportunity.

“Good news, Headmaster .., Onesco of Class 1-2 has passed the first trial of the Holy Knight!”

“The shortest record for the first trial of a holy knight is three years! It’s impossible to accomplish an ordeal that’s supposed to take longer than creating a base in such a short amount of time!”

“It’s true! The Holy Knight Association sent me a certificate!”

“Oh, wow, my luck has finally turned for me! It will be to my credit if I can make this known to the outside world!”

“Yes, it will be to my credit! We’re going to invite a lot of guests from outside and have a big commemoration ceremony!”

“Onesco will be on the front page of the newspaper! If you can recommend me in the comments there, I’m sure I’ll rise in the ranks!”

“If you can comment on the fact that it’s because of my guidance, I’m sure to move up in rank, and I won’t even dream of moving up two ranks!”

A bumpy combination that expands dreams.

But suddenly, the face of a boy came to mind.

“I’m sure there’s no way .. that piece of garbage is going to show up in your face..? For example, he processed gems to achieve the trial. ..”

“There’s no way that piece of trash can work on jewelry, he’d be a freak of dexterity.”

“But you can never be too careful. Even if that garbage was involved, just don’t let others know about it. For once, no matter what, failure is not an option. ..!”

“I’ll do everything I can to get rid of that garbage!”

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◆

When I woke up in the morning, my body was unusually not glowing.

Oh well, I thought, I’ll just leave the house to go to school..

Around the entrance to the forest, a crowd had formed.

The school’s guards are lined up in a row, blocking the way.

At the center of it all was the vice principal.

The vice principal shouted at me from a distance.

“Leopin, not .., you must not step out of that big house today!”

Neither the vice principal nor the guards would come near me at all, as if I were a biker.

I shouted back.

“What? Why?”

“Onesco has completed the first test of the Holy Knight! Today, we’re renting out the school for the day to celebrate! Specially, many guests from outside are coming! A lot of newspaper reporters came and took a lot of photos! If any of the dropouts from the ‘special training class’ were to run out, we’d be in big trouble!”

Outsiders are not allowed to enter the pioneer academy unless there is a special event.

It’s a “school festival” to show off the progress of the development, and class visits.

However, when a student makes a particularly outstanding achievement, a celebration is sometimes held with guests to honor that achievement.

This time, it is the latter case.

I don’t understand why that would get me grounded, but I get it as a reason.

Besides, I’m used to being treated like this.

I reluctantly agreed, but the vice principal added an extra word that seemed to take away even my enthusiasm.

“There will be lots and lots of delicious treats! If you stay quiet at home, I’ll puff that smell and send it to you!”

“No, I don’t want that! Anyway, I understand! I’ll be working in the fields all day today!”

“No, you can’t leave the house!”

The vice principal cut him off with a bang and pointed a finger at him and shouted.

“Come on, guards, lock that bad boy up in his bad house! And keep a close eye on him and don’t let him out, not even one step!”

The guards, however, do not move an inch.

They were wobbling and shaking their heads from side to side at the vice principal’s command.

I wondered why I was so far away, but then Mark and Tom rubbed up against me and I understood.

Well, the vice principal and the guards are afraid of my guard dogs.

The vice principal was hysterically ordering the guards to charge, but when none of them moved stubbornly, he finally relented.

“Then that’s enough! You’ll stay here for the rest of the day to make sure that bad boy doesn’t leave this forest! If that fat boy tries to take even one step, I’ll beat him mercilessly to the point that he’ll run away screaming!”

That order was fine, and the guards returned the salute in unison with a zap!

I wanted to be a little mean, so I ordered, “Go, Mark, Tom.”

As soon as the two beasts, large and small, raced out of the forest with a?“Goaah!”

“Hiii!? Gyaaaaaaaaaa....!!!!!!!!!!!”

The guards ran away like spiders with girlish screams.

The vice principal, who didn’t get away fast enough, got bitten in the pants by Tom.

*Biriii!*

And the fabric was being eaten off their buttocks.

“This tuxedo was bought just for today! It hasn’t even been an hour since I put it on! Gyaaaaaaaaaaaa!?”

The shameful figure of the vice principal is driven away by Tom and leaves with his raw buttocks bare.

That made me feel a little better.
