Chapter 116
With just a “bang,” Tsukasa ended the battle.
Everyone was instantly attracted by him, and they showed a dumbfounded expression.
Even Rito and the rest of the teachers were dumbfounded since it was their first time to see a gun-type blaze.
However, Sakuya and Mikuni were unfazed since they had expected this situation.
Even if Tsukasa was a normal human, he had the power to defeat the majority of Exceeds easily, and now he had become an Exceed. If he wanted to, it was possible for him to decimate the entire people in this auditorium.
While everyone was stunned, it didn’t mean the battle had ended, and they quickly fought once again since they didn’t want to be diminished from this school!
Even Imari also started to fight someone whose Blaze was a shield. “Shield?” While she was surprised since she saw someone whose shape of Blaze wasn’t in the shape of a weapon, compared to Tsukasa, the shock that was brought by her opponent was incomparable.
“But even so, I have to win!”
However, her opponent seemed reluctant to fight Imari and didn’t show the determination to win like everyone in this place.
Tsukasa only looked at Imari for a moment before he observed his surroundings. While he sat down on his chair, no one seemed to fight around him. It was as if there was a barrier that separated him three meters from his surroundings.
However, this wasn’t surprising.
His charm was one thing, but his power was something that made people wary of him.
While they were fighting from a close distance, Tsukasa could just shoot them. They might have a power that exceeded the boundary of humanity now, but it didn’t mean their cognition changed. They were just normal humans before, so in front of a gun, they would obviously be shaken since it was the strongest weapon that people had ever invented, so while he sat down on his seat, no one dared to do anything to him, and fought quite far away from him.
Still, Tsukasa felt weird when the girls fought harder than the boys, but he just observed his surroundings, looking at whether there was someone that interested him, and he found them.
There were three girls and one boy.
The first girl was a girl with a kusarigama-shape of the Blaze. She was quite cute with long navy blue hair with a yellow headband attached to the side of her hair. She fought gracefully with her chains, fighting her enemies from a distance that couldn’t be reached by her enemy.
While the girl was powerful, Tsukasa only nodded since her kusarigama skill was lower than him, and what attracted him the most was her appearance, not her skill.
As for the second girl, she was the one that he had seen outside before. She had twin blades on her hands, fighting with hit and run strategy and the speed that was faster than the majority of people.
Tsukasa looked at this girl in doubt for a moment, but he shook his head, thinking it might be related to one’s talent instead of mutation or something else. While he had been in this world for a few days, there were many things that he didn’t understand, and Sakuya also didn’t help him that much since even though she often told him that he would become her husband in the future, it didn’t mean she would tell him everything.
Tsukasa also didn’t really mind, and it was something normal, so instead of mulling over this matter, he decided to focus on becoming Level V first.
Tsukasa then focussed his attention on one boy, and the reason why he put his attention to this boy was that first, he was Imari’s opponent, and the second, because the shape of his Blaze was a shield.
Yes, a shield.
While Sakuya had explained the shape of Blaze could only be the shape of a weapon, this boy broke that restriction and had a shield as his Blaze.
It was amazing since this boy was irregular, but at the same time, Tsukasa felt that it was kind of lukewarm.
A shield might be an unexpected shape, but in the end, it was only for defense, not for an attack.
However, Tsukasa didn’t think that this boy would lose to Imari, but at the same time, he also didn’t think Imari would lose since the boy lacked the means to attack Imari.
Tsukasa was quite optimistic about Imari since her swordsmanship was quite good. He could tell that she could become a kendo champion easily, and she pushed the boy easily.
However, something unexpected had always happened, and the boy pulled his fist and sent out a shockwave to Imari, defeating her instantly.
“…….”
Tsukasa was silent and felt weird by the boy’s punch.
While the punch seemed simple, Tsukasa felt that the boy’s punch was similar to the pistol shrimp.
The pistol shrimp was a unique animal since it could send out an air bubble-like blast through its claws.
However, of course, it didn’t mean the boy could mimic the movement of the pistol shrimp since it was dangerous.
If Tsukasa had to say, it was the lower version of the pistol shrimp attack.
Why did Tsukasa say that it was a lower version?
Because the special attack of the pistol shrimp wasn’t a human could mimic since its special attack would create a temperature that was comparable to the surface of the sun.
Even if humans could make a similar attack, their fists might melt because of the temperature alone.
Tsukasa also had the idea to create a similar move to shrimp mantis or pistol shrimp before, but he gave up since he had tasted the feeling of his melting hand. It was so painful that he cried out loud, and his magic wasn’t enough to protect him since he only had a limited amount of magic. Luckily, he had a regenerative healing factor, so his hand had healed up pretty quickly back then.
However, when Tsukasa saw this boy, he thought he might be able to mimic the attack of the shrimp mantis or the pistol shrimp again, considering how his body had broken the boundary of a human and how his magic had increased.
Still, it would be scary if his hand melted all of a sudden, so Tsukasa only copied the special attack of the boy by pulling his fist and sending a powerful shockwave that sent everyone away on its path.
“……..” Everyone.
Tsukasa could feel some tingling pain in his arm with a sigh before it slowly recovered. He frowned slightly, but then he noticed the cute silver-haired girl that he met before was looking in his direction. He only looked at her for a moment before he put his attention somewhere to the last girl that attracted him the most.
This girl might not have the most skillful technique, the most powerful strength, or the strongest.
However, it was his first time seeing someone who could match the size of Kanata and Stella in this world, and this dumbfounded him for a moment while sighing, thinking this world was really amazing.
With such a useless thought on his mind, everyone had mostly ended their battle.
“Time’s up! Only those who have already won will be accepted to the school. And finally, let me leave you with these words.”
Sakuya took a moment of a breath and said, “I pray thou will one day reach Absolute Duo.”
Along with those words, the Qualification Ceremony ended.
Tsukasa turned his attention to Imari, who showed a dejected expression, and let out a sigh slightly since while her strength was on the stronger side among the new students, she had bad luck for choosing a strong opponent.
However, this was how life was. Nothing would come out as one expected.
While it felt sad for not being able to meet this cute girl again, Tsukasa thought that he needed to talk to her since he knew that it might be his last time to meet this girl.
