Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai - Chapter 185.1 - Class Meeting 1
Chapter 185.1 – Class Meeting 1
TN: Check out my new project too! The Replacement for Suicidal Undead catches up with the raw.

「Well then, let’s start our class meeting.」
「Haah?」
The one who raised such a voice was none other than Class Rep herself.
「I mean, a discussion when everyone in the class is together is called a class meeting, right?」
「Well, that’s correct but…」
Though Class Rep wanted to retort, she couldn’t say anything hearing my sound argument; but let’s set that aside for now.
「Then since everyone has gathered here, you shall take a seat for now.」
「Why Momokawa is the one in charge of this?」
Randou-san, please stop taking the initiative to push me at this important moment! I mean, the one who took the initiative in conversation often came out ahead of the others. All the more so amongst Japanese who rarely take the initiative.
If I didn’t take the initiative at this moment with an eloquent speech, I wouldn’t be able to change the atmosphere in this place into that of a peaceful one back in Japan.
「You’re the one who brought it up.」
「Hehe, just like Class Rep.」
I’m quite desperate inside, Randou-san. I’m fully aware that I am lacking the capabilities for this.
In the first place, the male class rep of our class was Higashi-kun. Well, even he was barely qualified as class rep. As for our female class rep, Kisaragi-san was way too suited for that position. Maybe 『Class Rep』 vocation was most suited for her.
「Yuuto-kun, Sakura, both of you are okay with this, right?」
「… Yeah. It’ll be much easier if everyone is working together.」
「I guess it can’t be helped.」
As expected of the owner of 『Class Rep』(Lol) vocation, her work was quick. Souma Yuuto had to accept this result, albeit reluctantly. And once he made known his stand, the rest would follow him.
「Class meeting huh, Momokawa used yet another strange term again.」
「I don’t mind that though. He’ll do a good job for sure.」
「Momokawa, our course of action is completely dependent on you! Please, do your job properly!」
Due to my sudden entry, the Totem Pole Trio’s role was relegated to that of a bystander, after all, the troublesome matter had been dumped on me. Despite them being like that, they’re my important allies in this kind of situation. At least, they’re more indebted to me than Souma’s party, it was literally impossible to get along with Souma’s party.
「You enjoyed my support after experiencing civilized life in the jungle tower, huh.」
「Yeah, we will give our full support too.」
「Well then, please wake Yamada-kun first, we can’t just leave him behind.」
「Oooou.」
Yeah, I really couldn’t left them after all. I’m sure none of the trio would wake Yamada unless I reminded them.
「Don’t worry Hime-chan, everything will be okay as long as we do as Kotaro-kun says.」
「Ah, y-yes.」
「It’s true, that’s why you mustn’t become a hindrance, okay?」
Mei-chan was sitting beside Mei-chan with a good-natured smile as we commenced the operation to form our faction. Nakajima was also sitting down with her.
HimeNaka couple didn’t have that much influence in the class, the evidence being Yamajun’s remark about their vocation. That’s why these two wouldn’t cause trouble during a class meeting. So, Mei-chan alone was enough to bring them into our faction.
「Do your best, Kotaro-kun.」
「Uhm, leave it to me.」
Naturally, everyone was working together to arrange a meeting place. As long as nothing went wrong, My, I mean our position shouldn’t be any worse but… Souma Sakura definitely wouldn’t let that happen.
I had no idea when Souma Yuuto’s emotions would get out of control again, so I had to prepare for the worst.
「Well then, since everyone is seated, let’s begin.」
「The one in charge of the class meeting is me, the class rep. And Momokawa as the initiator.」
No one complained about this. Class Rep truly had established her role as the class rep of Class 2-7.
It was evident from the fact that Souma party didn’t say anything about her taking that position. And to honour them, I had to act as a proper mediator too.
In reality, you could say that the class was currently divided into two factions— the Souma faction and the Momokawa faction.
That was evident from the fact that the seat was separated into two groups while the Class Rep and I stood in front of both of them.
Strangely enough, everyone’s seating arrangement was like that of a classroom instead of a circle.
The ones who sat in the front row, right in front of Class Rep and me who stood on the podium, were Mei-chan, Randou-san, and Souma siblings. Naturally, Mei-chan and Randou-san were on my side.
On the second row, from my side was the Totem Pole Trio, while the ones who sat on Class Rep’s side were Natsukawa-san, Takanashi-san, and Kenzaki bit*ch.
And the third row was, if I was pushed to say, from my side was the HimeNaka couple with Yamada-kun who groaned as he woke up. Good morning, Yamada-kun.
And sitting on the last row was the neutral party with Tendou-kun sitting on the edge of the fountain and JuriMary waiting upon him.
Not a bad formation.
My goal was to gather everyone and make clearing the dungeon a common goal. And naturally, I would make sure that everything was fine by having a proper grasp on the leash. At worst, I would become a member of the Senate to have some control over our decision.
Seeing that I had incurred the wrath of Souma Yuuto, the only way for me to survive was to provide support for my classmates. Though Mei-chan was a powerful bodyguard, it wasn’t enough to guarantee our safety since I had no idea when would we return to the survival life of just the two of us.
I mean, even if we lived a leisurely slow life, THAT pair of WMD of hers constantly excited me.
My plan was to look for a way so that all of us could get out of this dungeon while aiming at the deepest level of the dungeon with everyone, even if it was only one more person. I’ve seen and experienced way too many battle royale among my classmates. Yeah, only after arriving this far did I realize just how many people had already died at my hands.
I’ve had enough of that. I mean, it’s not like we had to kill each other until only three of us were left. I had to do this for myself, and everyone who decided to believe me.
That’s why now was the time. Whether it was due to the fact that we were dancing to the tunes of the mysterious mastermind, or simply because of the whim of god, it was a fact that 18 classmates had gathered in this place. We might not get another chance like this. Now was the only chance to band together for a common cause.
It’s okay, I can do this. The current me would be able to accomplish this.
「Now let’s start with introductions.」
「Yes, this might be the first time for many of us to meet each other since we’re sent into this dungeon.」
「Tell us about your skills and vocation, make it short and simple. Also, mention the strongest monster you’ve defeated until now. We will start from you, Class Rep.」
「Eh?」
Though she seemed like she wanted to retort with something along the lines of “We’re not starting from you!?”, I gestured to her to speak while feigning ignorance.
「My vocation is 『Cyromancer』. For now, I can use offensive and defensive spells up to an advanced level.」
「OOOOH!」
Some of us raised our voices of admiration, the reason being they were also the owners of sorcerer-type vocation.
The last time we did this, Class Rep said that she could only use up to intermediate. It seemed she had yet to be able to use advanced when Mei-chan left with me after Reina’s murder.
Meaning that she had managed to use advanced spells after Reina’s murder. It seemed she wasn’t lying since it was only available some time ago.
「As for the strongest monster that I’ve defeated until now… My apologies, since we’re always ganging on the boss, the strongest monster that I’ve defeated by myself is goma.」
「That’s like the earliest stage of the dungeon, right?」
「Yeah, there were only Futaba-san and the other two at that time.」
「How nostalgic, unlike now, that’s the time when you’re being considered as baggage right, Mei-chan?」
「Ko-Kotaro-kun! Please don’t talk about that time anymore!?」
Maybe because Mei-chan considered that phase as her dark history, she hurriedly tried to stop me from talking. Well, if we continued as it was, we would eventually reach the part in which she was considered a piece of baggage despite her 『Knight』 vocation, whoops better stop now before she chokes me to death with her hug.
「Yeah, anyhow, since a certain Parasite-san can’t solo the boss, the boss has literally been defeated in a party battle.」
「Momokawa-kun… I wonder what you mean by Parasite.」
「Well, Class Rep, who can’t solo the boss, admit that you left all the boss fights to Souma-kun please~.」
「Guh… Wha-Whatever. The most difficult battle I had participated in might be the one when we fought five Gogmas.」
「EEEEEE~H!? Are you referring to the Gogmas in the pyramid who were single-handedly killed by Mei-chan? Are you sure that’s a party battle!?」
「… Sorry, Momokawa-kun. It seems I can’t cooperate with you anymore.」
「Ahahaha, no way, Class Rep, I’m just teasing you.」
Half of that was serious, but seeing that Class Rep was on the verge of crying, I had to make it look like I was teasing her.
