“Nii-san…” Ikki felt conflicted when he saw his older brother.
“I don’t have a family! Don’t call me “Nii-san!” Ouma answered coldly.
On the other hand, Shizuku only frowned, but she didn’t say anything since her relationship with Ouma wasn’t close to begin with.
The others also looked at each other, and their expressions became solemn. With the destruction by the six of them, they could clearly tell how strong the members of the Akatsuki Academy were. They were strong, and without a doubt, this battle would be something they would be looking forward to.
Yet the six members of the Akatsuki Academy didn’t seem to be in a hurry as if they were waiting for something.
Then as expected, Arisuin started his move!
Arisuin was the spy who was placed by the Akatsuki Academy on the Hagun Academy. When the time came, he would also attack the students of the Hagun Academy, yet if the plan could be so smooth, it wouldn’t be called a plan.
Arisuin didn’t throw his daggers toward the students of the Hagun Academy. Instead, he threw his daggers toward the six members of the Akatsuki Academy!
As long as his daggers hit their shadows, they would be immobilized and lose their ability to move!
By then, the initiative was in their hands!
Even if they wanted to fry or boil the students of the Akatsuki Academy, it was possible.
However…
*Splash!*
The six figures they thought of as enemies suddenly turned into splashes of ink.
“This is…?!”
Everyone was startled by the sudden change, but suddenly another voice came from behind.
“Wow, I didn’t expect that he would betray us.”
“Isn’t it natural? I guess this kind of development usually happens, right?”
“We are lucky to have you.”
Apart from Ouma, the rest of the members of the Akatsuki Academy looked in the direction of the petite cute boy in surprise.
“With my power, it’s a normal thing, right?” The boy smiled, then said, “But isn’t it bad for the betrayal not to receive a punishment?”
“That’s true.” The man with the clown mask nodded, then said, “I hope you’re prepared for the punishment from your teacher, Black Thorn.”
“I have made my decision, so I’m ready for anything.” Arisuin didn’t fear them since he felt secure with him around. However, his body was slightly shaken when he heard his opponent mention his teacher. He looked at the people around him before his eyes turned firm since he didn’t regret his decision.
However…
“Eh?”
Arisuin was dumbfounded when all the daggers he had thrown suddenly bounced back into his direction!
Yet all of the daggers suddenly were thrown by the blade.
Tsukasa had made his move, and he protected Arisuin.
“Thanks, Tsukasa.” Arisuin sighed in relief, and his gaze was so gentle at him.
“If you’re going to thank me, stop giving me that disgusting gaze.” Tsukasa was speechless, then looked at the six members of the Akatsuki Academy. He could see that all of them were looking in his direction.
Ouma Kurogane, Sword Emperor of the Wind.
Amane Shinomiya, Bad Luck.
Sara Bloodlily, Bloody Da Vinci.
Reisen Hiraga, Puppeteer.
Yui Tatara, The Unturning.
Rinna Kazamatsuri, Beast Master.
Tsukasa was familiar with their identities, and he somehow didn’t feel surprised that they were able to rampage through the Hagun Academy. Even in other schools, he believed they would be able to do something similar since he knew they were strong.
On the other hand, the six members of the Akatsuki Academy looked at Tsukasa in a daze for a moment since it was their first time to see someone as handsome as him. Even though many of them have trained their mental strength under tough training and battle, all of them failed.
When he was there, they were like an apple that fell from the tree to the ground by gravity. It was impossible not to glance at him, yet after a momentary appreciation, they quickly focused on the battle that was about to begin.
Still, whether it was Sara or Rinna, they looked at Tsukasa obsessively.
On the other hand, Tsukasa noticed a malicious gaze that came from the petite boy. He frowned slightly since he didn’t remember this boy, nor did he recall they had met each other, yet he could see how obsessed this boy was toward him.
‘What the hell is this maliciousness?’
Tsukasa just stared at the boy and thought of plucking out his eyes if this boy kept looking at him.
However, as if a force of nature, the boy somehow wiped his eyes because dust entered his eyes.
“……” Tsukasa looked at this boy weirdly before he asked naturally, “Are you sure that you want to fight? You don’t even have an advantage in numbers, you know?”
“Do you think you can defeat us with just an advantage in numbers? Look, your school has been ruined by us even though your schools have more people than us,” Hiraga said proudly.
“Can you say that when the “World Clock” or the “Yaksha Princess” are present?” Tsukasa asked.
“…….” The members of the Akatsuki Academy.
“Put aside the fact that you guys are cowards. Before I beat the shit of you, can I ask why you attacked our school?” Tsukasa was still clueless about the Akatsuki Academy since he didn’t know why they had attacked their schools.
“Put aside, we’re not cowards, and the fact that we’re the ones who are going to beat you up, I’ll kindly tell you why we have attacked your school,” Hiraga said kindly and politely.
Even if Tsukasa was blind, he could tell the reason why Hiraga acted like he was a leader was that this guy was the only person with the ability to talk normally.
As for the rest…
Tsukasa looked at the rest of the members of the Akatsuki Academy and didn’t think they were able to talk in a human language.
“Alright, I’ll explain it in a simple manner.” Hiraga coughed, but before he was going to say anything, Tsukasa stopped him. “You don’t need to since you just want a qualification to enter the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, right?”
“…Can you not cut my words?” After all, wasn’t it usually time for the villain to explain the purpose of their action?
Yet Tsukasa cut his explanation rudely.
Still, Hiraga didn’t deny Tsukasa since he was right.
“Then go ahead.”
“As you have said, we’re just a nameless academy after all, so in order to gain the qualification to enter the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival. The fastest way is to show our might, right?” Hiraga asked with a smile.
“Do you think the committee will let you?!” Stella frowned.
Their actions were excessive, and it was normal for them to be banned.
Yet…
“They’ll let them, of course,” Tsukasa said.
“Tsukasa?”
“They have provoked the League of Mage-Knight Nations. If the organization ignores them, then they’ll be seen as weak, so they have to accept this provocation. However…” Tsukasa glanced at them and said, “That if you can defeat all of us, right? If you’re too weak to defeat us, then everything will be nothing.”
“Fufufu…” Hiraga laughed and said, “You don’t need to worry. All of us here are “very” powerful, so without a doubt, we’ll defeat you all here in this place!”
“Done?”
“We’re done.”
“Then we’ll beat the shit of you now.”
“Fufufu, those are our lines.”
“Kill them!” 2x
They didn’t hesitate and charged forward!
