Please answer the following question:

In the past, to cure the illness of those with authority, the shaman will,

“Use both hands to make imprints, use the vajra, have a ma.s.sage-like ritual, and start chanting’.

What does the ‘vajra’ here refer to?

Himeji Mizuki’s answer:

“It’s a Buddhist tool used as part of prayers with the objective to cure illnesses.”

Teacher’s comment:

Correct answer. This ‘vajra’ is ‘a weapon used to chase troubled and demons away’ when praying. It’s a weapon, so it’s either made from bra.s.s or bronze. The vajra is cla.s.sified as three-p.r.o.nged, five-p.r.o.nged or more. There will be photos for introduction later, and you can have a better impression after looking at them.

Yoshii Akihisa’s answer:

“A thing that is crushed and given to patients to drink for curing illnesses.”

Teacher’s comment.

It would, probably, be extremely hard to make it into a solution.

Tsuchiya Kouta’s answer.

“Something used to stuff into the backside to cure fever.”

Teacher’s comment:

That would be a really extreme solution.

“Princ.i.p.al. About the exchanging of facilities between C cla.s.s and F cla.s.s.”

“Oh ya. Those brats would finally change their facilities?”

“Looks that way.”

“So in other words, C cla.s.s now have F cla.s.s’ facilities? That’s quite the drop.”

“They themselves declared war, so they couldn’t grumble there.”

“I never thought of hearing any grudges about winning or losing—and then. What did the brats from F cla.s.s do?”

“Ehh. Once F cla.s.s got C cla.s.s’ facilities, they challenged E cla.s.s to a summoning war.”

“E cla.s.s? Looks like they intend to make use of other cla.s.ses without learning their lesson. It ended with a peaceful ceasefire, didn’t it?”

“No, well—”

“What?”

“F cla.s.s won in the end.”

“Oh my. So that happened. I didn’t expect a victor there. Looks like they were ambushed from behind or something.”

“Well, about that.”

“Un? What about it?”

“The C cla.s.s facilities F cla.s.s got were exchanged with E cla.s.s that was supposed to have downgraded facilities.”

“&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;Huh?”

“I think it was like ‘since we can trade facilities, let’s use this right’ or something.”

“Well, it’s not against the rules anyway. Really&h.e.l.lip;exchanging facilities with a losing cla.s.s. What are those brats planning to do next&h.e.l.lip;?”
