Majikoi – Love Me Seriously! – Momoyo Route
The Goddess of War – Deleted Scene
Ready As I'll Ever Be!
(During Chapter 23 – Momoyo 10)
At the S-Army's war council—
Aoi and Momoyo were discussing things.
"It would seem that the F Army truly moves at Yamato's behest and with Nagamasa as well it seems their morale is buoyed.." Aoi pointed out.
"Haha, that's what I want to hear." Momoyo was getting excited.
"Amakasu-san is simply window dressing, nothing more." Aoi commented.
Koyuki returned and brought everyone tea to drink before the battle. Afterwards, Hideo went to rallying his army and while some were more then willing to chant on the S Army's superiority, some knew that both army's were even in some terms.
Pride was currently at the helm of Hideo's thoughts as Aoi warned him, "That sort of pride can itself cause one's downfall."
But Hideo didn't seem worried at all, "Mwahahaha! Their quest is a dream, a fairytale! A myth of how commoners can surpass the ruing class, should they ban together."
Kokoro agreed, "A laughable idea. The squawking of monkeys can accomplish nothing. They should bow before us. Their eyes affixed to the ground only."
"Then let us show them how fearsome we can be. Oh dearest and only friend, Touma. Bring forth the map of the battlefield.
The class studied the map of the current lay out of the battlefield information they shouldn't have but given the sies they'd had embedded in the F Army they knew how the units were to be mapped out.
But one hope for Aoi was that Momoyo would take the vanguard and help end this battle quickly, but she had refused.
"I'm free to do what I want. I'm pretty sure that's what we agreed to when I joined your side." Momoyo reminded him.
"I suppose I did." Aoi replies.
"Besides look…" Momoyo looked on the map and just like her, she saw that Nagamasa had been put in the rear as well in the west as the F Army's ace. "Heheh, which side will bear fruit first? Come on, Nagamasa…"
"Any moment now… everyone…" Momoyo began. "Believe me, I know… this sinks pretty low, but for this one fight it's deserved…"
"I'll play the bad guy, that's fine, it's no fault of mine… and perhaps this is just how it was meant to be… but's it time to step up or it's time to back down and there's only one answer for meeee…"
"And so, I'll stand up and fight, cause I know that I'm right…"
"And I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready… ready as I'll ever be ~"
But for now…
In the F Army war council—
"Hehe, I always love how a light beating is just enough to make someone reconsider their ways. Makes passing along false info that much sweeter." I commented looking at the battle map. Unlike the original plan, some of units on the Eastern Mountain we're in fact in the west or center.
I had requested it like such.
"Nagamasa, are you sure about this strategy of yours? You'll be alone in the Eastern pass." Moro said with a worried tone.
"Not at all Moro, it's all part of the plan. Besides Kobayakawa needs to be kept in check, Capt's squad should be just the sight needed to keep him as such." I replied. "Besides our strategy relies on the enemy's pride after all."
"He's right, the S Army has Hideo deployed directly on the front lines in front of Tadakatsu. He could be taking us lightly. If anything their army plans to overwhelm by numbers alone, not withstanding their own shock troops." Yamato explained.
"Sorry about this you two, I know for now I'll be in the vanguard. But as soon as I see that breach in their line I have to take it." I nod apologetically to them.
"Not at all Nagamasa! They won't get past me and Ta-chan." Wanko was fired up.
"Hmph, bring it on" Tadakatsu was just as ready.
"But still kid, this plan of yours is risky. You really gonna take on that whole eastern side by yourself?" Lisa asked with a bit of worry.
"Like I said that's part of the plan. Part being the optimal word. Just leave it to me, besides I feel as thought most of the eastern troops on the S-Army will want my head in particular. Some of their Charge units consist of Momoyo's most zealous fans, they'll be gunning for me." I said.
"Homura-san, you'll be in charge of artillery. Your job's to help Miyako with support and above all cause chaos in the front lines. Chaos and control are the heart of our strategy. This will be a battle of endurance, the less morale and disorder in their ranks the better." Yamato turned to Homura.
"You got it!" Homura was pumped as she readied her cannons.
"Mouri, Hachiya; you both know your tasks right?" I ask them.
"Leave it to me, my arrows will beautifully pierce any enemy in their sights." Mouri said with a flick of his hair.
"I will complete my mission. Call for me when needed." Hachiya replied simply.
"Ryuuzoji, use the loose tongue of yours to… convince some of the S-Army of the error of their ways. I'm sure you could get a good following here in the East if you did so." I played to the guy's ego.
"But of course, I will turn over 200 of them by the end of all this. I swear! This shall be the start of my conquest in the East!" Ryuuzoji proclaimed, well moving on…
"M, you know your task right?" I turn to Oomura.
"Yes, should either the front or the west be in danger I will be your trump card, but be warned I may only have the strength to act once. Make your decision carefully." He said.
"So what'll you have me do kid?" Lisa asked us.
"Your job is to eliminate any stragglers who get lost from their units. Don't get too cocky now, if you sense Margit don't engage unless absolutely necessary. Got it?" I ordered her.
She saluted me, "Sir, yes sir!"
"Besides I'll also be using the 80 men from the main brigade to set up an ambush." Yamato relayed.
"Inconceivable. The terrain is too exposed, not only that the enemy will be expecting one." Suguru objected.
"Trust me, I have a plan for that." Yamato replied.
"If Yamato says he has a plan, I trust him." Wanko spoke up for him.
"Alright. Wanko, Gen you and Nagamasa will engage Kuki's force lightly then fall back, in the meantime Nagamasa will pursue his stratagem." Yamato explained the plan.
But Suguru still objected, "Again I say to you, your plan is inconceivable. They will see an ambush coming."
Yamato however was confident, "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. Bandits, for now we want you at the west of the eastern mountain; you won't be lacking a fight there and we might need you for some action in the center if needed."
One of the thigs laughed, "Heheh… You got it, we'll trample 'em."
"The General HQ staff will be in support of you." Yamato said.
"Yamato, you'll be fighting?" Wanko asked.
"With a numbers disadvantage like this Wanko, we need everyman we can in the thick of it or ready to do so. Besides, he's got a pretty good guardian." I pointed to Cookie.
"Worry not. I will be beside Yamato-san for his protection. Heheh, today is the day I can finally swing my sword with abandon." Cookie laughed.
"Monk unit, when the time comes we will need your support so can you came camp just behind the summit of the eastern camp?" Yamato asked the head monk. "She's made it her mission to target Nagamasa… if our strategy works…"
"But of course, Nagamasa-san will have our full support." The head monk replied.
"Capt, for now you'll be in reserve in the west, but don't worry when things get heated you'll be in the thick of it." Yamato promised.
"Sweet, I trust you." Capt replied.
"Leave the west mountain then to us." The leader of the Third-years replied. "We too shall keep Kobayakawa in check, besides we want to pay those S-class elites back for all they've done."
The sophomore leader's unit was also over there, "And with Kazama-kun by our side we have some elites with us. Leave it us as well."
"And in that leaves only… Momoyo." I pointed out her place on the map. "Knowing her she'll only watch and wait for now. She'll come when she thinks the fight is worthy of her time."
Unfortunately we had no info on the enemy's outside fighters besides there were 10 strong-armed men, but the other forty were a mystery.
That and the only other issue was the opposing Archer unit made of the Archery club, Miyako was our trump card on that front, along with Homura.
In the meanwhile… Kuma-chan was getting dangerously hungry… which was good in our case.
"Our plans are in place, now we have to execute them." I say.
"If we all do our part, we can turn this around." Yamato said.
"Yes… All that remains is to act." Chris said with bated breath.
"Yeah. Mayucchi?" Yamato turned to the lone samurai girl.
"Y-Yes?!" She stood ready.
"Once the battle starts, open up this bag and do exactly what the instructions say." Yamato handed her a small bag.
"All right!" She took said bag with her.
"Nagamasa-san?" Mayucchi called to me.
"Is that it?" Chika asked us as we seemed finished with our war council.
"Mr. Tactician, Lightning, some final words?" Mayo said. Wait, what did she just say?
"Mayo, what did you just call me?" I asked her.
"Oh, some of the army has taken to calling you the Lightning Warrior, because of how fast you are. Actually it had been going around the school for a while before the Kawakami War." Chika told me.
So I had my own nickname huh? Lightning Warrior, huh? Not bad, I suppose.
With some last words needed Yamato said first, "Guys, let's do this!"
With me following up, "Now it's time to rise up or it's time to stand down, and the answer is easy to see…!"
Drawing my katana I lift it into the air as I continue, "And I swear by the sword, if you're in get on board…"
Bringing the blade to my face enough I could see my reflection in the glint of its blade, "Are you ready?"
Mayucchi did the same, "I'm ready…"
Chris joined, "I'm ready…"
Wanko and the others joined to, "We're ready, we're ready…!"
"Ready as I'll ever be…!" I finished.
As Mayo then joined Nagamasa's side, "Are you quite sure we can do this?"
I turned to our short Class Rep as I took her shoulder, "Together, we will guarantee…"
The scenes continue to transition back and forth…
As Momoyo starts, "I'll make them hear me…"
Both armies could now be heard singing, "Now it's time to redeem… Or it's time to lose all.."
I continued, "Prove they can trust me…"
The armies continue, "And the outcome will hardly come free…"
Yamato then joins in, "And it's all for home and family…"
"Now the line's in the sand…And our moment's at hand…" Both armies approach the borders of their respective camps ready for the fight to begin as the countdown starts…
"And I'm ready…" Wanko starts.
"I'm ready…" I reply.
"I'm ready…" The others join in as the scene transitions one last time to Momoyo then scene closing in on her resolved look her eyes glinting like a red hue like a wolf on the hunt…
"Ready as I'll… ever be!" Momoyo declares as the war begins!
