The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button

Chapter 231 - Cherin, The Land Of Sakura And Seven Holy Swords [2]



231. Cherin, the Land of Sakura and Seven Holy Swords [2]

At the end of the student council executives election, the president suddenly recommended me for the position of Vice-President in front of the entire academy.

Of course, I haven’t been told of this at all.

「P-President… What are you saying!?」

As soon as I asked so,

「Because, if I don’t do it like this… you will turn it down right, Allen-kun?」

She tilted her neck adorably, while not seeming to be sorry in the least.

「I see that you understand that well… But this time that’s not going to work, you know? The “Student Council President” does not have the authority to hold an election without permission after all.」.

Student council executives have a significant impact on the management of Thousand Blade Academy.

Executive elections to determine the personnel will be held by the “Staff Board” or by a higher body.

In other words, there’s nothing Sie Arcstria, the student council president, can do about it.

「Fufu, there’s no problem regarding that.」

「What do you mean?」

「Because I got Leia-sensei’s permission just a moment ago.」

The president said and turned her gaze towards sensei.

「Well, it sounded interesting. So I just gave the O-K!」

She said and showed a thumbs up.

(I’ve thought of this once before, but…)

I should probably break that rather annoying little thumb after all.

「Haa…」

Even if she is like this…

Even if she is stuck in the director’s office reading manga and not doing any work…

(Unfortunately, she is still the “Director” of Thousand Blade Academy.)

The Director is a decision-making body that is higher than the staff board.

Because she issued permission, an executive election can be held here and now.

(Man… she just does as she pleases as always.)

As I dropped my shoulders dejectedly, sensei spoke with a slightly serious expression.

「From an objective point of view, Sie’s recommendation is exceedingly appropriate, isn’t it? You have an overwhelming swordsmanship skill, as well as a high paperwork skill, and also a lot of consideration for others. Your reputation in the eyes of the world that does not know anything is extremely bad, but… Our staff have a very high assessment of you, and it is probably the same for the students of this academy.」

She took a breath and continued.

「This is a matter for the future, but… Allen will most definitely be the student council president in the third year without a shred of doubt. In other words, it’s not strange for you to be appointed as the vice-president in your second year. Rather, I don’t think there’s any other better choice.」

「E-Even if you say that… I think this kind of thing is something that should be acknowledged by everyone, and not something I alone should decide on.」

The moment I gently tried to turn it down,

「Don’t worry about that, Allen! If it’s you, we have no complains!」

「New Vice-President, Yoroshiku!」

「If you lead Thousand Blade, we’ll become even stronger!」

The students who lined up under the stage pushed for my appointment as vice-president.

It was not a matter of one or two students either.

Almost everyone from the first year to the third year were cheering.

「Hmm, there seem to be few voices against it, but…」

「Look at that, everyone wants Allen-kun to be the vice-president.」

「T-That’s…」

From the top of the stage, sensei and the president, and from the bottom of the stage, the whole academy – I, who was sandwiched between the two, no longer had a choice.

「Haa, I understand. However, if it turns out to “majority opposing”, please give up on this, okay?」

「Aa, of course. From here on, we will decide whether or not to inaugurate Allen Rodore as the new Vice-President! Since there is no rival candidate, we will hold a vote of confidence as before!」

As a result of the primitive show of hands voting,

「Five hundred forty in favor, zero against. By unanimous vote, next year’s student council vice president will be Allen Rodore!」

Unbelievably, I gained confidence from the whole academy.

It took about a minute from running for the position to inauguration. A “super-speed election” that would normally be impossible.

「But this is amazing… Allen is the first person to win with one hundred percent approval rating in the long history of Thousand Blade Academy!」

Sensei happily clapped me on the back.

「Is that so…?」

Should I be happy?

Should I cry?

I sighed deeply, not even knowing what to feel anymore. At that time, Ria and Rose, who were watching the chain of sequences from a distance, ran up to me.

「Vice President Allen… I think it sounds cool!」

「Well, you were already doing the work of the vice president. So, isn’t it more accurate to say that your “position caught up with you” rather than “newly appointed”?」

「…Thank you. I’ll try to be as positive as possible.」

When we were talking about that, Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai came over.

「With the responsible Allen-kun becoming vice president, we won’t have to do our work anymore!」

「Well, we haven’t done any work since the beginning though…」

「I see, so you both are at least aware that you don’t do any work…」

After Sebas-san, the vice-president, was gone, I was doing everything from office work, management, and miscellaneous work of the student council.

(Thinking about it again, it might be exactly as Rose said.)

Just because my position has changed from general affairs to vice-president, it doesn’t seem like I have to do anything specific.

When I was thinking to myself about that,

「Fu, fufu. I look forward to working with you again, Vice President.」

Sie Arcstria, the student council’s biggest problem child, smiled happily.

(Well, whatever I suppose.)

Being by her side, I can at least reduce her pranks a little.

(If you leave her alone, she’ll start doing whatever she wants.)

Someone needs to stay by her and play the role of “keeping her in check”.

「From next year onwards, things will get a little tougher, so be prepared for it…President.」

「A-Ahaha… D-Don’t be too hard on me.」

At any rate, the student council member of the next school year was decided safely.
