Chapter 352

The match between Shizuku and Touka had finished, and everyone could only lament how strong Touka was.

When Shizuku lost, Ikki came to visit Shizuku and consoled her.

No one really knew what had happened, but without a doubt, the relationship between the two became closer.

However, if the path they had chosen wasn’t easy and it would be full of obstacles, considering the blood that flew in their veins.

Tsukasa wasn’t sure whether Ikki could defeat this obstacle, but he supported them anyway. Still, while the match between Shizuku and Touka ended, he also had his next match.

Then, a month had passed, and his 18th match was to fight against Shizuya Kirihara.

Kirihara was the first opponent that Ikki had fought, and his ability was the famous “Area Invisibility,” which gave him the ability to turn invisible.

Ikki had trouble fighting Kirihara before, but he was able to defeat him by reading the information about what kind of person Kirihara was.

Frankly, Tsukasa must admit Kirihira’s ability was quite nice.

Unfortunately, Kirihara was too lazy to train and spent most of his time on his playboy’s activity. If he trained harder, he might be able to erase his presence not only from a vision but also from other senses such as smell, sound, and others.

However, it might be because Kirihara had lost against Ikki that his spirit to become stronger was shining brightly. Even if his opponent was Tsukasa, who was famous for defeating many monsters in the Hagun Academy, he wouldn’t lose.

That was what Kirihara was thinking, but he lost so fast that he was in a daze.

Even if Kirihara might be able to erase his smell, too, it didn’t mean it could make him able to escape from Tsukasa’s sense of smell.

His sense of smell was like a supernatural power. It was like an instinct, so it was easy for him to know the location of Kirihara.

The moment the match started, Tsukasa slashed Kirihara in half with the illusionary form, defeating him instantly.

Frankly, his match was just useless, and he was quite lazy to fight since they were all too weak for him.

Tsukasa could even defeat Nene, who was famous for being the third strongest Blazer in the League of Mage-Knight Nations.

‘Still…’

Tsukasa thought about Stella and Touka, wondering whether he should make them into a Desperado. It had been a month since he had become a Desperado, and he had learned many things alone. Frankly, he wanted Nene to teach him, but she wasn’t a good teacher, and all the things she said were incomprehensible.

However, Tsukasa didn’t feel weird since he knew what kind of person Nene was.

Instead of her teaching him, Nene might be the one who asked him to teach her.

Nene told him to ask her teacher to teach him. After all, her teacher was also a Desperado, and his knowledge was several times better than her.

The teacher that Nene mentioned was Nangou Torajirou, the God of War, the Flawless, and the legendary Blazer of this country.

Tsukasa thought it might be good to ask that old man, and he knew that old man would help him since that old man was also his pseudo teacher. However, he wanted to surprise that old man, and frankly, it wasn’t that difficult to train the power of Desperado.

As Nene had mentioned before, the Desperado was the boundary between a human and a demon. They were special beings, and in this world, their existence could be counted with two hands.

In other words, among seven billion people, only a few of them could become Desperado, showing how extraordinary this existence was.

Oh, right, instead of being called a Desperado, it was called an “Awakening.”

‘Is it because it’s cooler?’

Tsukasa wasn’t sure, but he must admit the abilities he got from being able to achieve “Awakening” were amazing.

Firstly, they had an incredible aura.

It might seem useless, but he felt it was an amazing ability since it could help him to clear up the small fries, and with his aura alone, he could make all of them pass out, wounded them, or even worse, kill them.

Second, the amount of his magic could increase based on his training.

Thirdly, he had an attractive force. It might be hard to explain, but it was like gravity. He had become a star. His existence wasn’t bound to this world, so if he wanted to, he could create a result that he wanted in his mind. For example, if he wanted to, he could do many things.

Still, it was only a month, so the only thing he could do was to immobilize, wound, or kill Blazers, just thought his mind.

It might seem ridiculous, but he didn’t think so.

When he awoke to the power of Desperado, his entire body changed. However, it wasn’t those of a human body. Instead, it was a combination of a human body and magic.

The magic in this world was amazing.

It could change into a Device, and it also gave many unique abilities based on the individual.

Part of Desperado’s body was magic, and it might take some time, but he believed he should be able to learn to create those Devices of the other Blazers and learn their abilities as long as he was given time.

Lastly, he was immune to the causation manipulation system type of Blazer, which was able to manipulate fate. After all, he was a Desperado, and he could affect fate, so he was immune to causation manipulation.

If Utakata Misogi wanted to use his probability manipulation on him, it would be useless.

Anyway, there were many things he could learn on becoming a Desperado, but he must admit the consumption to awaken was so damn huge!

Tsukasa wanted to complain somehow and wondered whether there was a way to increase his magic.

The amount of his magic wasn’t bad, and it even reached an A-rank in this world.

However…

‘It isn’t enough…’

Tsukasa knew he had to go to another world again, but he wouldn’t go now since he had a lot to do in this world.

Still, after his training, he rested with Touka and Kanata together in their house together.

“A mysterious giant?”

“Yes.” Touka nodded while pushing the frame of her glasses. “You should know that the qualification match is almost over, and the candidates are going to have to train in the facility of the training camp in Okutama.”

“But there’s a rumor that a mysterious giant appears in that place, so we, the student council, are going to come to see whether the rumor is true or not,” Kanata said.

After all, even if there was danger in the training camp, they weren’t weak and could protect themselves.

“…”

Tsukasa thought they would have fun together, but who would have thought trouble was coming.

“Okay.”

What could he say?

Anyway, they were going to have fun first.

Let’s go ahead!
