Shinya Shibasaki: Character Story Translation: MDR
Chapter 2
Masachika Inoh	Shibutani, who was completely defeated by math and science, and Ushiwaka, who failed absolutely everything, you two will have makeup tests. Please study hard to prepare for them.
Minato Ushiwaka	Study, okay~
Kasuka Shibutani	Things like listing numbers.... I cannot comprehend what necessity there is to learn anything aside from the language of fate.
Masachika Inoh	With that, let's use this time to review. Everyone please look over the questions you got wrong.
	As soon as Inoh-sensei finished speaking, I tucked my test away into a folder.
Shinya Shibasaki	Whew, thank goodness, I got an average score this time too.
Mikage Asagiri	Shin-chan, you say that eeeevery time, yanno? Always staying perfectly average, is that fun?
Shinya Shibasaki	It's not that it's fun, but, I try really hard for it.
Mikage Asagiri	'sat so? Well, whatever works, bud.
Yanagi Hanabusa	Just like how you make a game out of scoring one point above having to take a makeup test, it may be interesting.
Mikage Asagiri	It's just logical, right?
Shion Mikekado	Just the opposite: it sounds like a pain.
Minato Ushiwaka	Kasuka, let's study for the makeup test together!
Kasuka Shibutani	If I were to study with you, incarnation of corruption, I see a future where you would only get in my way. In fact, I want you out of the room entirely.
Masachika Inoh	Everyone, please leave your whispering until the break.
Shinya Shibasaki	Ah-- sorry, sensei.
	Joking around with friends during class and getting scolded by the teacher; with such ordinary, wholesome days, I couldn't help but feel happy. -- Because of that, I started to forget the "true circumstances" I was bound by.
Location Change: Hallway
Shinya Shibasaki	Ah, it's finally lunchtime, I'm starving!
Shigure Hakka	Since it's nice out, shall we have lunch on a bench in the courtyard or near the sports field?
Shinya Shibasaki	Let's do the sports field! Then after we eat, we can call over the first years and play soccer!
Kiichi Saruwatari	Masachika-chan, is now a good time~?
Masachika Inoh	! Please refrain from calling me that in front of the students.
Shinya Shibasaki	Ah, Saruwatari-sensei!
Shigure Hakka	I wonder what he's doing in the second-year wing?
Masachika Inoh	Is something wrong, for you to come all the way to my classroom? Should I go back with you to the staff room?
Kiichi Saruwatari	Is Shinya-- ahh, there he is, wonderful.
Shinya Shibasaki	Huh, me?
Kiichi Saruwatari	I was wondering if you could come with me to my office? Your mother has just arrived.
Shinya Shibasaki	Eh....
Shigure Hakka	.......
Location Change: Saruwatari's Office
Shinya's mom	--and that is why I will be withdrawing Shinya from your school today.
Shinya Shibasaki	!? Withdraw--
Masachika Inoh	Again, for you to take such extreme measures so suddenly,
Shinya's mom	I enrolled Shinya into Shinonome with the expectation that such a prestigious school would be able to stimulate his competitive instincts; however, Shinonome failed those expectations.
Shinya Shibasaki	.....
Masachika Inoh	... Though you may say that, I believe, watching him as his teacher, that Shibasaki-kun's time here has been valuable. First, I think he himself should decide by his own will whether or n-
Shinya's mom	His own will? Please spare me from arguments meant for the mediocre. Anyway, I have already decided on his withdrawal. Please deliver the necessary documents. Goodbye.
Masachika Inoh	Hold on-- please, wait--!
Shinya Shibasaki	Sensei, I'll chase after her, so, [runs out of the room]
Masachika Inoh	Ah--
Masachika Inoh	.... What even was that? What kind of mother--
Kiichi Saruwatari	You've started making a scary face, Masachika-chan~
Masachika Inoh	As acting school chairman, how can you be laughing right now!?
Masachika Inoh	Being suddenly withdrawn from school, Shibasaki-kun looked so miserable....
Kiichi Saruwatari	Well well, I wonder what will happen next...?
