Chapter 33: Triumphal parade, part 1.

4:44 pm

Everything was ready for the start of the parade: along the Avenue of victory a stage had been set up for the authorities, where Miho and the other commanders of the various teams, plus other representatives of the aforementioned, were gathered in addition to Hilda and her collaborators. On the sides of the road, crowded behind two rows of white and red striped easels, there were countless students, all anxious.

Finally we will see the tanks of this school ...

Maho thought, wiping the sweat from her forehead. In fact, that afternoon it was definitely sultry.

"Much still missing?" Miho asked.

"A few minutes." Hilda replied, consulting the clock.

"By the way, Himmler, what about that other matter?"

"What other matter?" The bespectacled was perplexed.

"Did you forget it?"

"Ah ... All right, mein führer!"

"Better…"

After a while, a music band attacked to play martial music.

"And what song would that be?" Katyusha asked.

"Erika, an old German military march." Nonna replied.


"A song suitable for a Nazi school." Andou commented.

"Hold your tongue!" Marie scolded her, not wanting to create new problems with the landlords.

"Watch!" Ruka exclaimed.

A small squad of eight female students had appeared on the road, two of whom proudly carried the German and school flags.

They marched with a proud expression on their faces, and the group leader kept her right arm raised.

Behind them, an uncovered black-colored car paraded, from which a girl in full uniform with blond hair and blue eyes performed in an impeccable military salute.


"That's Nikolaus, captain of the hawk team." Hilda explained to Miho.

"And which one do you direct?"

"Wolf team."

"Why did you choose that name for your team?"

"Because the wolf is a noble animal, my favorite."

"I understand…"


Behind the car marched the students of the school, united in impressive formations, lined up for 6. None of them gave a sign of nervousness, they were all upright and confident.

"Remember our parades a lot ... Right, Maho?"

"Right, Erika. Even if the students seem to me even more serious and disciplined than ours. "


"How many students do you think will be per group?" Orange asked.

"117, I counted them." Darjeeling replied seriously.

"So many?" Assam looked incredulous.

"Are you surprised? After all, we are on a ship that hosts more than 100,000 people. "


"Have you seen what organization?" Haru asked.

Nishi nodded.

"They are sober and disciplined, surely they will be used to this type of demonstration." She stated.


"Damn ... Have you seen how many there are?" Carpaccio asked, amazed.

"Hundreds!" Pepperoni replied, excited.

"We can only dream of such organization skills at Anzio!" Anchovy admitted.


After the students it was the turn of the SS, who like the first marched compact in large groups, lined up for four.

"After our diligent and hardworking students, it's the turn of the SS, our heroic police who maintain peace and order in the school!" A voice from the loudspeakers announced, with an enthusiastic tone.

At their appearance the band attacked with a new piece of music.

"A black tide ..." Klara commented, shrugging.

"Comrade Klara ..."

"Yes, Comrade Katyusha?"

Katyusha spat in her face, surprising her quite a bit.

"Shut up! Last warning!" She ordered her.

She, having overcome the bewilderment, nodded.

Kat snorted, then returned to watch the parade.

I hate using certain methods ... I'm not a cruel person.

She think.


"What do you think?" Hilda asked, turning to Miho.

"Extraordinary ... Your students are truly exceptional!" The aforementioned replied, amazed.

"It is the result of a long training that our students undergo, strengthening both in spirit and body, becoming formidable warriors."

"You must be proud of them."

"You can say it well ... Indeed, honestly speaking I love them all."

"Love them?"

"In a sense ... Familiar, I mean. As if they were my relatives."

Miho smiled and nodded.

"Very noble on your part."

"Now it's the turn of the foreign students!" The voice announced.

"So those before were only the Germans?" Momo asked, amazed.

"Exact." Himmler replied, adjusting her glasses.

After a few minutes, in the street, groups of students began to march, less numerous than the previous ones: they wore various types of uniforms, and some of them held national and school flags in their hands: first the Italian ones, led by Salò, then Hungarian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Finnish, Danish, Polish, Belgian, Dutch, Norwegian, Slovak, Czech, Austrian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Baltic, Russian, Slovenian, Croatian, Bosnian, Macedonian, Albanian, Greek, French, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Israeli, Yemeni, Indian, Iraqi, Thai, Taiwanese and, last but not least, a Japanese delegation.

"Have you already recruited Japanese students?" Miho asked, surprised.

"Exactly, many asked to join us, and since their parents were in favor we welcomed them. After all, we are a prestigious school. " Hilda said cheerfully.

"Miporin!" Saori called her, shaking her by the shoulder.

"What is it, Saori-san?"

"Look at the flag carrier girl!"

Puzzled, Miho stretched her neck to get a better look, and when she did, she was shocked.

"But it's ... Mako-san!"
