Ghost School
Being a Spirit: The Next Target



*


After Izumi, Kagusa, and Kei partied eating the monster king, they continued the discussion for the revival of the school territory.


"Which other territory will you lead for conquest?" Ask Kagusa


"The area is not adjacent to our territory. That area is called the G complex" I replied


"Isn't it better to conquer the territory around us so that our territory becomes a large and strong territory?" Ask Kei


"That's right. But the area around us is very strong. It will be difficult for us now to fight him. So we're gonna jump through one of those regions and come into that territory"


"That's risky! How can we leave our territory empty and go to war to a faraway place? The region around us could take the chance of ruffling our territory for that long"


"So much worse, it could have been the neighbors who intervened in the war. Suppose we really managed to conquer the region, the neighbors could have directly attacked us who are still exhausted after the war" continued Kagusa


"Because of that, if we'd taken out all the spies before, now we'd have taken advantage of those spies"


Kagusa and Kei's faces immediately sparkled with curiosity, wanting to hear my explanation.


"I'll explain the plan, and why I chose that faraway territory"

2 Days later...


In the square, the place where the spirits fought before...


"Eh, did you hear? He said our leader decided to take a few months' rest to restore the condition of the region"


"Yes! I heard it that way too. That's a wise choice! No hurry and make the spirits trust him first"


15 Minutes later, in the same place...


"I saw suspicious movements from the residential area. Looks like they're going to attack the apartment area? The two regions are also quite close, so they could be preparing for war, right?"


"So, I don't pay much attention to it. But I also feel the same way in the alley area. Such an alley region would start a war with the riverside region"


5 Minutes later...


"I should have heard the leader of the discussion with his left hand, he said we were going to war with the neighboring region. Know it? The park area"


"What's? War again? Just finished the war again..."


"Well, what else? We're just following orders"


10 Minutes later, again in the same place, through a pair of evil spirits walking together.


"We're going back to war, you know! And this time his opponent was from the Southwest region. That, the hospital area"


"I can't wait to fight! But I'm afraid you're lost in that war"


"Gosh, I'm looking forward to it too. Do I look that weak just because I'm a girl?"


20 Minutes later...


"We'll take a break from the war. Leaders are also not used to being leaders, so they still need to learn"


5 Minutes later...


"He said we will not fight in the near future, and the leader will sort out the spirit that obeys him and that defies"


10 Minutes later...


"The next target is the spirit on that big bridge"


it keeps on, it keeps on happening. Spirits talk about the future of the region, but with different information from one spirit to another.


*


In a hidden place, gathered together spies from neighboring regions.


"So which is true between everything they say?"


"Either. I don't know either. I hear them say different things every spirit says. But most of the spirits there said the school district wouldn't attack"


"By the way, I got info from other places, he said the park area will also be waging a war with the residential area"


"Totally too!! I also heard the news that our area will be attacked from a residential area. They are secretly making plans to attack us!!"


"God! I also just got word that our territory will be attacked by an alley!!"


"But what I heard, the alley region will attack the riverside region"


"No matter what, our territory is threatened because at least 2 regions are planning to attack us in the near future. This cannot be allowed!!"


"It's dangerous! We must immediately return to our territory and tell the leader!"


"Come!!"


They all teleported back to their territory. And without them noticing, Kei kept eavesdropping on their conversation from start to finish from outside the room.


"..."


Kei recalled Izumi's remark for the beginning of the previous conquest plan with his mouth smiling faintly.


*


"I'll explain the plan, and why I chose that faraway territory"


"The first plan is to spread rumors through the spies"


"Rumors?" Ask Kagusa


"Yes. We make our neighbors wary and suspicious of each other. The trick is to make a rumor. Rumors about their territory that will be attacked by other regions so that they can not leave their territory just in case"


"In addition to that, we have to make them confused about our territory. As much as possible to make them not suspect the school area"


"Spread various rumors ranging from our own territory, to enter other regions. Then we try not to let the rumors get into the area of the G complex that is our target"


"If you meet a spy in the G complex area looking for information, just disappear"


"Tomorrow morning, gather spirit representatives to deliver our plans. And we will start the plan in about 5 to 7 days after the plan is implemented"


"You understand?" Ask Izumi


"Yes!" Answer Kei and Kagusa in unison


"For those 5 to 7 days, we will wait and see the situation. If the neighbors start to be vigilant and tighten their guard, we start a war"


"Then the second step is..."


*


Draper... Draper... Draper...


Izumi and his entire army entered the G complex region confidently.


"Lord leader!! Our territory.... Our territory was invaded by the school territory!!!"


"Hurry and prepare the troops immediately!! Call all spirits to battle!!"


The two spirit leaders from the G complex came and faced off against Izumi and his entire army.


"We cannot tolerate your actions. We will fight in earnest"


"I wish it was like that too" I answered


The spirits from the G complex region began to appear.


The spirit leader of the G complex and we started a fierce war.


However, with only 1 hour of war, the school territory dominated the war.


The two spirit leaders who realized their territory would not win, chose to surrender rather than lose.


The two leaders immediately knelt down before me for help.


"Chief of school district. We admit defeat of our territory. Please don't disappear on us"


From the front of the chest of the two of them, appeared a red and blue crystal, then they gave it to me.


"We'll give you our heart crystals. So, please don't lose us"


"You're smarter than I thought you were"


I took the two crystals and put them inside my body.


*


"Then, step two is..."


"As usual, we will attack the territory in earnest"


"Make sure you don't underestimate the spirits of the region, because they're also powerful"


"If they're strong, why did you choose to wipe out the territory?" Ask Kei


"They have weaknesses...."


"The good spirits of the region are few, almost 70% of the spirits there are evil spirits"


"If war, the strength of both spirits must be balanced. If there is a strong one and there is a weak one, then that power will be weak"


"Had many good spirits were 35%, then the evil spirits needed only 35% as well. So the total amount of power of the region was a maximum of 70%"


"I don't pay much attention to the area. Why are there more evil spirits?" Ask Kei


"Key, where have you been all this time until you don't know?" Kagusa Syndic


Kei immediately stared intently at Kagusa as if he could stab Kagusa with his deadly gaze.


"Complex G is a place where many criminals act. There are often murders and other crimes there, because there are more evil spirits than good spirits there"


"Although, the region is strong because it can last long enough with good spirits that are less than evil spirits. So don't be careless in the war"


Kagusa and Kei nodded in understanding with serious faces.


"As I said earlier, there are fewer good spirits there than evil spirits. So, Kagusa will come with me to attack on the front row of the war" I continued


Kagusa and Kei were confused and threw gazes at each other.


"What about Kei?" Ask Kagusa


"Kei will lead the spirits to guard our territory"


"so. So Kei is guarding the school just in case the spirits in other regions attack, yes" muttered Kagusa


"Not" I said quickly


"The reason is not that simple"


"Because of my plan to set 1 trap and get 2 birds"

5 Hours later after the conquest.


Zuuungdo....


My crystal-shaped power spreads into every spirit.


"I have given you my power to increase your energy. At midnight we'll start the next war"


The situation immediately became a prick. In general, the war has just been completed but will already be waging another war. This has never happened before.


I immediately left after saying that and met Kagusa.


Once I was away from them, I immediately collapsed as my strength was depleted by the war and also distributed it to the subordinates.


While I was breathing heavily exhausted, Kagusa came near me.


Kagusa sat down beside me and shared her strength with me.


"Stupid. You know war again, but you drain the power of your good and evil spirits" Kagusa said flatly


I just glanced at Kagusa and looked back to the front.


"That's my way for them to believe me" I replied, wiping the sweat that was running down my chin.


Kagusa only smiled faintly at my answer.


"Don't let you vanish because of that way"


"Later in the night my powers are full. No need to worry"


"You are too good. But you could have been an evil spirit before"


"Don't remind me of that"


Instantly things became quiet.


"alright. I'm going to check this area. You rest first, Izumi. I'll organize the spirits later, too, so you won't have to do anything until war time"


"Thank you"


Kagusa smiled faintly, then walked away.

At midnight, in the park area...


"Leader! The school territory is attacking from the north gate!"


"What?! Quickly prepare the troops, counterattack!!"


30 Minutes later...


"The troops from the school area are not too many, master leader "


"good. Attack them until they're all gone"


However, just now that the leader said so, another spirit came reporting.


"Lord leader!! school district!! The school territory attacked from the southwest gate!"


"What?! Isn't it in the north?!"


"They... They're surrounding us, master leader! The main force we've all deployed for the fight at the north gate. But they are now attacking us in the southwest with a no kidding amount!!"


"Deploy the rest of the troops to the southwest!!"


There was a fierce war in the area.


And, the next night...


The state of the region was extremely severe due to the fight. And of course, the school territory managed to conquer the park area.


*


**


"Because of my plan to set 1 trap and get 2 birds"


"So... That means we're going to conquer 2 territories at once?" Ask Kagusa


"Not all at once, but rightly will conquer 2 regions"


"After G complex area, next we will attack the park area"


Kagusa and Kei could immediately understand the continuation.


"I understand. Because the park area is flanked by the school area and the G complex area, so if the G complex area is conquered, the park area is surrounded"


"really"


"After we have conquered complex G, we will contact you. In the evening you immediately attack the park area, Kei"


"For sure we're still tired of just finishing the war, so our main attack is to leave it to you"


"Give me, Mister!"


"Attacking will be done soon. Everyone prepare for conquest!!"


"All right!!"
