Chapter 69

The next day, everyone tried to enter the 13th training field to watch the match that was about to start in this place.

Still, there was a limit to the number of people that could enter the field, so some of them couldn’t enter and could only stand outside, watching the match that was about to start from the large screen located on many parts of the academy.

Some people even decided to stay on the training field for a night since they didn’t want to miss this match and could watch it from the best position.

Still, one thing was for sure there were many people scrambling around to get their seats to watch this match.

Ikki, who had recovered, felt quite complex about this match, especially when he thought about last night…

“…”

Ikki’s face turned red, but at the same time, he wondered whether this relationship was alright. Still, he didn’t really want to give up this relationship.

However, Ikki also knew that this wasn’t the time for him to think about this matter since he needed to put all of his attention on this match.

The match between his friend and his little sister, Ikki, felt conflicted, but even so, he was going to watch it.

On the side of Ikki, there was Alice, Stella, Kagami, Kurono, and Nene, who was also watching the match that was about to happen in this place. They talked to each other, wondering how this match was about to develop.

Stella and Nene noticed each other, but they ignored each other since their relationship wasn’t exactly good, considering they were falling for the same male.

Luckily, Kurono was there, so neither of them would start the fight, but she sighed, thinking that Tsukasa really gave her a headache. However, she put the matter of the two aside since she wanted to see how the fight between Tsukasa and Shizuku would develop.

The popularity of Tsukasa was extremely high, and everyone, whether they were students, teachers, the academy staff, or even the people from the outside, wanted to watch their fight without hesitation. It wasn’t that they were interested in his battle. Instead, they just wanted to see the appearance of the most beautiful and handsome man in this world.

Still, Tsukasa’s appearance, which gave him popularity, was one thing, but Shizuku’s popularity was also high.

While Shizuku had a petite body, her appearance was as beautiful as a doll, and if she didn’t act so cold, many people might confess to her since there were many lolicons in this place.

Unfortunately, Shizuku had someone on her heart, and they had just started their relationship last night.

Shizuku was full of happiness and wanted to spend her time with her older brother, but she knew that she needed to put the matter of her older brother aside since she was afraid that one mistake would cause her defeat.

‘I’m going to win.’

Shizuku watched the other passage where Tsukasa was located. While she couldn’t see his figure, she knew he was there, preparing to fight her in this match. She took a deep breath and sharpened all of the fibers on her body, showing her determination to win this match.

While the audience was talking to each other, they wondered when the match was going to start.

All the members of the student council also came to watch Tsukasa’s first match.

Renren, Utakata, and Ikazuchi talked about their opinion about this match.

However, Touka and Kanata couldn’t care about them and focused their attention on the place where Tsukasa was located.

“Okay, this is the last match of the third day of the selection! This is the match that we have all been waiting for! Oh, by the way, there are so many people here! But I guess it is normal since everyone, including me, also wants to watch this match! Okay, continuing the live coverage is me, Tsukuyomi from the broadcasting club, and in charge of commentary is Yuuri Oreki-sensei!”

“Hel— Cough!” Oreki coughed blood out of her mouth.

“……….” Everyone.

“Sen-Sensei, are you alright?” Tsukuyomi asked nervously.

“I’m okay. I used to cough liters of blood every day,” Oreki said calmly as she wiped the blood from her mouth.

“……….” Everyone.

“Um… are you sure that you don’t want to go to the hospital?” Tsukuyomi asked.

“It’s okay. I think I can hold on since I want to watch this match as soon as possible,” Oreki said since she also wanted to see Tsukasa’s match right away.

“That’s true! I have almost been impatient now! So let me introduce our contenders of this battle! First is one of the famous figures on the new student this year! She is the princess of the Kurogane family and also B-Rank Blazer, whose power is water manipulation! Her power over her water manipulation is so great that she is being called the Lorelei, the Witch of the Deep Sea! Now, let’s not wait any longer! Shizuku Kurogane!”

Shizuku entered the field calmly with a graceful movement, but everyone could feel the chill whenever they saw her eyes. While her body was petite, no one would underestimate her since with that small body. She could defeat most of the people in this academy.

—

“Good fighting spirit.” Nene nodded and said, “She can become a good stepping stone for Tsukasa.”

“……..” Everyone.

“Sensei, don’t you think that you favor Tsukasa that much?” Ikki asked with a frown since while he admitted that Tsukasa was strong, similar to what the broadcaster said, his little sister, Shizuku was also strong.

Unlike him, who was a failure, Ikki knew that his little sister was a genius.

“You can say that since you haven’t fought Tsukasa.” Nene also had fought Tsukasa in the past, and she still remembered his cold gaze that made her body shudder and her face turn bright red.

Kurono let out smoke from her cigarette and said speechlessly, “Don’t get horny in the middle of your story.”

“Wh-Who is horny!?” Nene complained in red face and said, “Anyway, it is useless if I say more. You should watch the fight yourself, so you’ll understand what is so different between your little sister and Tsukasa.”

Even though Ikki couldn’t accept it, he also felt that Nene’s words were right. Instead of arguing about who was better, it was better to watch the match so the result would be clear.

When Shizuku walked out to the field, Tsukuyomi continued with her broadcaster. “Now, Kurogane Shizuku has come out! Now, it is time for her opponent to come out!”

When this voice fell, everyone turned quiet and waited for his moment to come out.

“He might be a new student, but I’m sure that everyone already knows him! He has the most beautiful and handsome appearance that we have ever seen. If there’s an angel in this world, then without a doubt, their appearance will be like him! However, if you think that he’s special because of his appearance alone, then that’s where you’re wrong! On his first day, he defeated Kurono-director!”

“…….” Kurono.

“He has also defeated the famous princess of the Vermillion Empire, who boasts the strongest magic in history and the world, Stella Vermillion!”

“……..” Stella.

Kurono and Stella looked at the broadcaster and thought they might need to talk with her later.

Tsukuyomi didn’t notice the gaze of Kurono and Stella. Instead, she fervently introduced Tsukasa since she was also his fan.

“Now, he’s going to challenge the famous Lorelei, the famous princess of the Kurogane family, Shizuku Kurogane! So is his legend going to end here? Or he’s going to write another legend?”

“……..” Shizuku squinted her eyes at the broadcaster.

Tsukuyomi became even more excited and even stood from her chair while holding her microphone high.

“……..” Oreki, who was on the side, felt that she needed to reprimand this girl.

Everyone also became even more excited, and they just couldn’t wait any longer.

“Now, let us welcome him! Fallen Angel, Kugayama Tsukasa!”

“……..”

The field was silent, and it was devoid of voice.

All the people forgot to breathe, and they could just stare at the figure that calmly walked toward the field, trying to engrave his appearance into their memories since his charm was just so breathtaking.

Still, while everyone was in awe of him, Tsukasa wondered when the hell he got a new epithet?
