Shirogane Aya - Beautiful, Strong... Hero?

[Shirogane Aya POV]

A beautiful woman with messy black hair in a loose, spiky ponytail stood on the school's roof, looking out towards the city.

"Haa..."

She seemed a little stressed, wearing a black leather bodysuit and bright red jacket with a pack of Marbol Reds in the arm pocket, while her extra long katana was now hanging from her waist after cutting dozens of wooden boards.

Of course, these would be used for the school heating later.

Shortly after, Shinji was beaten by Ryu near the old bike shed. Aya was forced to hide the incident to avoid trouble coming to him.

'Stupid Ryu! What was that threat message!? What "Discipline Chairman Aya's Raunchy Sex Tape" that bastard... I'll punish him for this later.'

"Hehe, since you want to play rough. I'll tell Dad you cheated on me."

The loud click of a lighter opening, something she stole from some delinquents smoking on the roof.

Her beautiful red lips kissed the brown tip, sucking gently with a long drag; thanks to her power as a martial artist and development in science and technology, the human body is now immune to diseases and viruses that used to kill them.

Cancers, aids and even horrible diseases like MS could be cured with the right money and treatment.

"Phwwoooo~ ah... that hits the spot."

To avoid issues with the contracts made by tobacco companies, hospitals and a special charity worked to make all cigarettes healthy with this new medical technology.

Now, still seen as a slight taboo but to the rich, smoking became a free vice to misuse like alcohol and gambling.

Tapping the railing, Aya felt a strange irritation, reading the morning texts from Ryu several times before rubbing her forehead in frustration.

'What does he mean? Is this a confession? Or does he just want to fuck me... I don't know what to think of that guy... He's popular with so many women, rich... kind..... good in bed...damn it!'

"Why does everything become frustrating and complicated when you are involved... Ryu?"

[Ryu... I don't have time to speak to you at college. So let's meet tonight at the same hotel.

I want to speak with nobody listening or watching.

You can choose whether we become strangers or something more...]

"No... I can't send this to that bastard."

But it was too late. As her finger pressed the send, she felt her heart sinking, but relief began to sprout.

With this, she could put that mistake behind her.

She didn't hate Ryu, but neither did she like him.

The sex was addictive, like smoking and swinging her sword. It helped her avoid the fate of carrying her family's martial arts title, and even that had relations to Ryu.

The unorthodox Kurogane assassination school of combat

The orthodox Shirogane Divine Sword School of protection

One family that reigns supreme in the east, and the only reason she was here was the successor battle ending in her father's loss...

Her uncle won, but sadly his entire family were killed in an accident.

Another family was banished, their arts deemed too dangerous in the modern day and exiled to this land.

Where their heir married a beautiful Russian woman and had Ryu.

"Phwooo~ well whatever... He will come to the hotel, and we can positively end everything."

"If Dad knew I was more of a thug than the heir to Kurogane, wouldn't he be pissed..."

'Well, it's great drinking and partying to relieve the stress of acting like a perfect princess... How does Ryu manage to seem so perfect all the time...'

She flicked her extinguished cigarette into the air with a large arc; her hips lowered before grasping her sword.

She gripped the long handle tightly, watching the butt float down with narrowed eyes.

'Now!'

The moment it entered her range, she used her clan's rapid divine drawing technique, her blade shining golden with the sun's reflection as she slashed it a dozen times; 12 glinting silver arcs flashed in two seconds, cutting it into tiny fluff and blowing with the wind.

The faint red of her lipstick shimmering in the hot morning sun.

However, Aya didn't notice, but her phone showed an error sign as it slipped into her back pocket.

*Network Error! No Signal!*

***

Aya returned to the Discipline Committee room before class with her jacket fully zipped, hiding her abundant bosom and curvaceous figure due to the bodysuit.

"Oh! Senior Aya!"

"Chairman Aya, there was an incident today involving those three troublemakers."

A young girl with brown hair and glasses was mentioned as she rapidly typed on the black keyboard, seeming to be the clerk of the Discipline Committee.

"C-chairman...." Shinji was lying on the black sofa, seeming to feel sorry for himself.

'This guy, does he think I would be interested in such a little wuss...'

'Come to think of it. Isn't this kid the type that is a hero in novels? His crush is involved with a young master, then he gets some cheat and slaps the face of that young master and wins the girl..'

"So stupid..." Aya muttered as she moved towards her desk; with perfect posture, she returned to the "Princess" Aya that these people forced her to show.

She leaned back in her red leather chair before looking through the documents; her work was fast and accurate.

Unlike a genius like Ryu, she practised hard 140% of the time to keep up with him.

"Do not worry about that; just focus on getting better. Shinji, we cannot work if you are all beat up, right?" Aya said without moving her eyes from the documents, signing and stamping various complaints and tips.

Around half an hour, she took a slight break.

"Mari, how is the budget for our activities?" She asked the girl from earlier.

Hearing the chairman call, she jumped, interrupting her typing as she looked at Aya adjusting her glasses. "Ahh.. that, we are fine, but there are a few expenses we should handle."

"Oh? Alright, forward me those expenses, and I'll see what I can do."

"Y-yesh!" Mari bit her tongue.

'Haha! Mari, you work so hard for no reason. Nobody wants that position, but let me treat you to a nice meal next time.' Aya thought, returning to her work.

Shinji kept looking like a sick puppy—the discipline committee could be 1 hour late to class and thus normally did work here first, but the time was close to finishing, and for some reason, he always tried to accompany Aya.

"Hmmm... it's a little dark. Did someone close a curtain?" Aya asked while everyone was working silently, the room now almost pitch black apart from the computer screens.

"Huh!?"

"W-What is that!" Mari gasped, pointing to the window behind Aya.

Suddenly the sky was filled with huge gates; gunshots and screams filled the room before the group reached the window. As Aya looked to the ground, she saw people being pushed on the ground...

"Oh god!? Are they Zombies???" Mari shouted with a fearful voice.

Then the attackers, rotting, almost like corpses, began to eat their flesh.

'Oh shit... what's going on?!' Aya panicked, her hand slightly trembling while holding her sword.

Despite being strong and fearless before strangers, she was just human. The sight of people being killed... Eaten, her heart began to race, and a certain person's face hovered in her mind, but the moment she was about to turn around.

Shinji jumped towards her, "Look out, Aya! Something is coming!"

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw two balls; a black ball went downstairs while the white ball shot from the gate heading towards this room!

Because everyone was at the window, making a ruckus, she couldn't draw her sword; as Shinji came close, it seemed like he was fated to intercept that white orb...

However, out of natural reaction, Aya lowered her hips and thrust forward with her left leg, smashing the abdomen of Shinji as he dropped to the ground like a sack of rocks, rolling in pain as she accidentally hit his crotch.

"Get down!"

"hurry, avoid it!"

Once the windows smashed, the committee members screamed, even the males crouching low, thinking it was a stray bullet.

'Whoops...'

The next moment the white light penetrated her abdomen, sending her body flying across the room with inertia and force. As her back slammed against the wall, she felt a strange string of voices entering her mind before collapsing.

'Ryu... please be safe.'

Once the committee noticed she was injured, they panicked and began to rush about carrying Aya to the chair.

Despite being hit in the balls and feeling a strange pop or crunch in his lower body. Shinji was grateful to Aya... "She took that deadly blow for me... I cannot let her get hurt!"

"Come! Find anything we can use as weapons, find something to protect your bodies!" An avid gamer Mari recovered thanks to the pair's actions.

"Look! They are getting up after being bit! No matter what, avoid being bitten!"

"Oooh!" A male with gloomy luck cheered, his hands holding wooden swords, confiscated knuckle dusters and air guns.

"Help the Chairman recover! Whatever crashed through the window hit her in the stomach!" Another blonde female added, getting the medical kits and clubs spare water and snacks and rationing them off.

The sounds of rifles, screaming and pistols were only an accompaniment for the rallied and organised committee's melody.
