104 A Matchmaker's <<Minor Fate Manipulation>>
"Took you long enough to return."
Hawser commented to his students after noticing their late return.
"I apologize. The Lord's french fries were just too tasty. If it wasn't for Allen creating containers for us, we would have stayed longer outside."
Jade apologized to her adviser while occasionally eating french fries. And it was quite unusual that she could talk normally while eating food at the same time. She must have trained herself on eating while talking.
"Apology accepted. And besides, you guys don't need to attend your class. I'm already glad that all of you didn't skip classes. Since I have heard from my colleagues that their class was almost empty due to most of their students skipping classes."
Hawser accepted Jade's apology while telling his students how grateful he was that they even decided to attend classes.
"So have you already decided on who will present their <Supreme> talent next?"
Hawser asked his students.
"We haven't. But I have decided that I will go next."
Eros answered his adviser's question.
'',
"But for me to present another ability of my <Supreme Matchmaker> aside from <<Red Strings Of Fate>>, I need Buza's help."
After saying that, Eros shifted his attention towards Buza while Buza himself didn't know what Eros wanted him to do.
"What do you want me to do? As long as I can do it and it doesn't go against my morals and ninja code, I will lend you my assistance."
Buza seriously spoke towards Eros.
"You don't have to be too serious about it. I only need you to throw ten shurikens towards me with the best aim you got."
Eros playfully replied to Buza and his tone of speaking was contrary to what he said.
"Are you sure? If you die, it's not my problem. You do know that shooting shurikens at a human's vital organs will make them die, right?"
"I already know about that and I'm sure I will be fine. Worst comes to worst, my fiancee can just revive me using her magic."
Eros replied to Buza since he already knew that he would be fine. After all, he wouldn't have asked Buza about it if he was certain that he would die. And he already had an assurance that he would still be alive since Aimee had resurrection magic in her arsenal of magic spells.
"Since you are so certain that you will be alive after this, then I have nothing more to say."
After parting those words that were loud enough for all of Eros' classmates to hear about it, Buza took out a couple of shurikens in the small bag that he placed on his waist that contained numerous shurikens.
After taking out exactly ten shurikens in his shuriken bag, Buza placed five shurikens in each of his two hands. Performing a throwing stance, Buza released and threw all of the ten shurikens towards Eros.
Eros only reacted to that by standing still as he waited for the shurikens to hit him. Aimee didn't seem to be worried about his well-being so she must have already known about his ability.
As for Allen, he had already known what ability Eros was talking about since he also had that ability but much stronger and better than Eros' ability. After all, his <Supreme Order> enhanced the effects of all of his talents that were combined to create the <Supreme Order> talent.
'ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N(ov)elBin',
With that in mind, Allen only spectated at what was currently happening in the classroom with Iris beside him.
And with Iris' <Supreme IA>, she had also known about what happened towards the surroundings of Eros so she knew that he would be fine even with ten shurikens heading towards Eros.
And as what they had expected, there was something that did happen when the shurikens reached near Eros.
Before the shurikens could even reach a centimeter, the direction of the shurikens instantly went the other way, narrowly missing Eros. It happened to all ten of the shurikens that it made Buza doubt whether he was the best ninja in his entire clan.
After all, he was the best ninja in the Haya Clan so he dared say that he has near 100% accuracy in his shuriken throwing skills. Witnessing how Eros didn't move from his position and his shurikens moving away from Eros made him doubt his skills as the <Supreme Ninja>.
But with his indomitable will that was unwavering due to the many hardships that he had endured to become the greatest ninja within his clan and even the whole world, he didn't experience an existential crisis, unlike Lei.
"How?"
But, even with Buza's experience as a ninja, he had yet to meet someone who had managed to dodge all of his shurikens when that someone didn't even dodge. Even those who had dodged his shuriken throws at least had one of his shurikens landing on them.
But in Eros' case, even one shuriken didn't land on him as if the shurikens avoided him on purpose.
"It's because you aren't fated to hit me with your shurikens. The moment you had thrown your shurikens at me, it was my fate to not have a single shuriken of yours land on my body."
Eros vaguely replied to Buza's question but with Buza and his classmates' intelligence as a <Supreme>, they somehow got the gist of what Eros meant despite his vague words.
"So I am not fated to hit you with my shurikens… I see…"
As if receiving enlightenment, Buza went silent as he digested the knowledge he had received from what Eros had replied to him.
"From what all of you have guessed, my other ability as the <Supreme Matchmaker> is known as <<Minor Fate Manipulation>>. As long as it isn't too grand of a change, I can manipulate fate so that it will be advantageous for me."
"It's because of this skill that was used alongside <<Red Strings Of Fate>> that I was able to attach my red strings of fate to Aimee. If it wasn't for this skill, it would be nigh impossible for me to achieve that considering how powerful Aimee is."
Eros further explained his <<Minor Fate Manipulation>> skill to his classmates.
