Tenku didn't expect the students to flock to watch the fight between the two girls. He had to admit that the two girls were beautiful, and their swordsmanship was pretty good, but that was about it. If it were to be compared to the swordsmanship he had learned from the Thousand Weapon Emperor Technique, what they were doing was child's play.
One of the girls fighting there was the student council president, Setsuka Fuyushima. She was pretty strong, but her opponent, who could fight fiercely against her, was also great and was definitely not a random student. But Tenku didn't know who the girl with the ponytail was in that fight. When he was trying to remember the names of the famous second-year students, someone suddenly called out to him.
"Tenku! We looked for you here and there, and it turns out that you are here watching two beautiful girls fight! I didn't think you would be interested in upper-level students. But I advise you not to have any intentions towards them, and you better forget it immediately if you have that because the two girls are not something we can reach." The one who called out to Tenku was Takaya, who came together with Noboru after struggling to make his way through the crowd.
"You misunderstood. I came here out of curiosity when I saw the students gathered. I didn't know they would crowd around like that to watch two girls fight. I understand if it's the student council president, but is her opponent also famous?" Tenku asked in a low voice.
Takaya and Noboru fell silent when they heard Tenku's question. The two looked at each other and then looked at Tenku strangely.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Tenku was confused by their reaction.
"Are you seriously asking that?" Takaya and Noboru asked simultaneously. Tenku felt deja vu about the situation.
"Is that girl very famous?" Tenku looked at his two friends and then turned his eyes to the girl who was Setsuka's opponent. She was indeed no less beautiful than Setsuka and was the opposite of her. If Setsuka was like an ice sculpture that was extremely cold and could freeze anything around her, then that girl was like a blazing fire that could burn anyone who touched her.
"That girl is a second-year student, and her name is Hijiri Natsukawa. You know the answer after hearing Natsukawa's name, right? They are one of the strongest Realizer groups in Japan, the same as Fuyushima." Takaya explained.
"I know about the Natsukawa family, but there's no way I know every family member. I am amazed that you can recognize them among the seven hundred students in this school." Tenku could only shake his head and intended to leave the place. In the first place, he had come there only out of curiosity and would go as soon as he found out what the students saw. But Takaya quickly grabbed his hand and stopped him.
"Where are you going?" Takaya asked.
"Isn't it obvious? I want to register for the shooting club. Have you found the right club for you?" Tenku awakened a Phantasmal Object in the form of a gun, and he was still not used to it. Therefore, he had to enter the shooting club to hone his skills. He could learn how to shoot from the Thousand Weapon Emperor Technique book. But first, he had to learn the basics of using a gun.
"I will take the boxing club while Noboru will take the special club because his Phantasmal Object is like a snail house, cough… I mean drill." Takaya looked at Noboru, who was glaring at him after he said the characteristics of his Phantasmal Object.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's immediately register in our respective clubs. Didn't Mr. Yoshioka bring us here for that?" Tenku had to leave the place immediately because he felt uncomfortable if he had to linger in a crowd.
"You don't need to rush. Since we're already here, it's better if we watch the fight to the end. Don't you want to see the two prettiest girls in school clash swords with bodies full of sweat? Don't they look sexy?" Takaya whispered.
"You are right! Although we can't approach them, we can admire them from afar. Don't you want to see the shape of their bodies printed on their wet uniforms?" Noboru added excitedly.
Tenku sighed and massaged his forehead. He knew the situation would end up like this if he met the perverted couple. Tenku finally gave up on leaving that place after they held him back from both sides. So he was forced to watch the boring show while playing on his smartphone.
In the battle arena, the two girls fought fiercely. Setsuka looked calm in the fight while his opponent attacked him with gusto. The weapons they used were real swords, and that was Hijiri's request.
"I will win this fight and avenge my loss last week, Setsuka!" Hijiri smirked, and he dealt a series of attacks to Setsuka.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
"Do you need to make it this flashy by letting the students see our fight?" Setsuka blocked Hijiri's sword and quickly counterattacked her. She felt very uncomfortable under the students' gazes because most of their eyes showed greed and lust when they saw her body. Although it bothered her greatly, it didn't make him lose her focus on the fight.
"Of course, it has to be! I want those new students to learn about real sword fighting and witness my victory!" Hijiri dodged Setsuka's slash and kept a little distance from her. Then she charged again at high speed and delivered a stab to her chest.
"Is that so?" Setsuka said indifferently. She shifted her body slightly to avoid the thrust and gave a horizontal slash.
"It seems you have become stronger than a week ago. Have you taken on missions from the organization in recent times?" Hijiri blocked the attack with a vertical slash.
Clank!
"That's none of your business." Setsuka replied coldly and added a bit of his strength to suppress Hijiri.
"Come on, don't be so cold! We are both second-year students and also from the strongest Realizer group in Japan. We need to get to know each other better. Of course, that won't change the outcome of this fight since you will lose to me now!" Hijiri didn't want to lose and release more power to keep up with Setsuka.
During the fight, Setsuka accidentally saw a first-year student in the crowd watching their fight. He was a boy that made her shudder just looking into his eyes. But the male student didn't see their fighting and instead focused on his smartphone. For some reason, it made Setsuka uncomfortable.
"First, I don't feel that close to you. Second, you are the one who will lose this battle." Setsuka gave a cold snort and suddenly added more power to her sword, causing her opponent to be pushed back a few steps. Hijiri was taken aback by that and tried to stabilize herself, but Setsuka's sword touched her neck first.
"You lose." Setsuka said and quickly left the place. Before she left, Setsuka glanced at where Tenku was standing, but it seemed the other party had already left before the fight was over.
"Strange. The shudder I get from that student makes me uneasy whenever I see him." Setsuka sighed and rushed to the changing room to change into her uniform, which was drenched in sweat.
At the same time, Tenku, who had managed to escape from Takaya and Noboru, immediately headed towards the registration area for the shooting club. He had no trouble finding it because each club had a big sign.
When Tenku arrived at the venue, he noticed that few students were registered in the shooting club, as only a few first-year students had awakened a gun-shaped Phantasmal Object.
Not far from where the shooting club opened its registration, Tenku saw Asuka registered in the special club while Akina, Akio, and Masaru registered in the swordsmanship club. Masaru entered the club because his Claw Sickle was used similarly to a sword, but the technique would be different.
Tenku finished his registration quickly and reunited with Takaya and Noboru. Then they returned to the classroom together.
Time passed quickly, and school ended. Today Tenku would return with Akina, and she couldn't open his stall because Kouta and Misora had something to talk to him about.
"What do uncle and aunt want to talk to me about? Is that important? Why didn't they tell me directly?" Tenku asked Akina. He found the situation odd. Usually, Misora would notify him directly via message if something important had happened.
"I don't know. My father only asked me to take you home immediately and asked you not to open a stall for today." Akina shrugged her shoulders. She was also curious about it but didn't dare to ask her father and mother.
After Tenku got home, he saw Misora and Kouta sitting in the living room. He felt that the atmosphere in the place was a bit tense when he saw the grave expressions of Misora and Kouta. Tenku thinks that something must have happened between them, which might have something to do with him.
"Sit down." Kouta said and pointed at the seats in front of him to Akina and Tenku.
Akina and Tenku nodded and sat on the chair without asking. But after quite a while, neither Misora nor Kouta spoke. Because of that, Tenku decided to open his mouth first and break the mood.
"Is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Tenku asked.
"Tenku. Now you have entered high school and have also become an Official Realizer. In addition, you also have a stall and can earn your income. It looks like it's time for you to live independently and leave this house." Kouta looked straight into Tenku's eyes and said seriously.
