BXBX NOVEL Chapter 146
Rito started the class again in class.
However, Tsukasa only listened in a perfunctory manner, thinking about what had happened before.
After he invited Lilith, she invited all of them to the Death New Land and played together there. Frankly, they had a blast.
Unfortunately, in the end, she invited him again to become his Duo.
His answer had never changed, and of course, he rejected her.
Still, Tsukasa didn’t ask her to become a Trio since he knew that girl might shoot him with her rifle if he made such a shameless request. Even Julie would also look at him with a strange gaze, wondering what he was planning.
However, Tsukasa didn’t feel guilty or regretful since his answer would never change no matter how many times Lilith asked.
Still, Tsukasa didn’t think Lilith would give up so easily, and he was sure that girl must be planning something to surprise him.
“We’ll be having an interclass battle with the second year soon. We call it…”
Rito built up suspense and shouted excitedly, “The Dragon’s Bite Battle!”
While everyone was confused about what was going to happen, Rito brought everyone to the arena to watch the selection of the second year that would be fought with them.
“You won’t be fighting as a Duo this time. It will be the first year against the second year. The first year will take on a few chosen second-year members.”
Forty of the new students would be fighting against the eight students in the second year that were chosen from the selection that happened in front of them.
Tsukasa looked at the fight with Julie and Miyabi on his side, and personally, he felt bored and didn’t feel that this was interesting at all.
While the second year had the power of Level III, Tsukasa didn’t think that they could threaten him. After all, he was also Level III, and his experience and talents weren’t something that could be defeated by a mere eight people. He even had many goons this time, so he felt that this event was simply useless.
“Having you all participate gives you the advantage… If you really think that, you’re naive! Way too naive! The second year is either Level II or Level III.”
“Am I also included?” Tsukasa asked.
“No, of course not.” Rito smiled and said in a whisper, “If you come out, they’ll be decimated. Still, as a teacher, I have to remind them and also don’t help everyone, alright? Otherwise, they will all be full of themselves.” If Tsukasa came out, she was sure that all of those second and third years, even if they were together, would be decimated by him, so if possible, she didn’t want him to help everyone in the first years and did a solo or just with his Duo alone.
Tsukasa also understood Rito, so he didn’t intend to interrupt the event.
While he knew that his power could overwhelm everyone, he still understood the power of the group.
If he came out just to manage the small fries, he would be tired to death.
Those goons, small fries, or any others were necessary to manage those little problems.
As for him, unless there was an opponent that could destroy a city or two, Tsukasa didn’t intend to come out at all unless there was something that interested him.
Still, with the appearance of Tsukasa, the girls and some guys that fought in the arena became even more excited, and their power increased several times since they wanted to show him that they were the best.
“By the way, Usa-sensei, can I ask you something?” Tsukasa asked.
“Yes?”
“How long are you going to hug me?” Tsukasa could feel the gaze of everyone on him.
However, Rito only smiled and said loudly, “I am tired. I can’t move my body.” She did this while showing a smug expression to all the people around her, causing her to become the enemy of the public.
“……….”
Tsukasa was speechless, so he said, “Sakuya is looking at us.”
“It seems I need to remind everyone about “The Dragon’s Bite Battle!” Rito excitedly explained it to everyone as she stood up briskly.
“……..” Everyone.
“By the way, Tsukasa, you seem bored,” Miyabi said.
“Well, you think they’re stronger than Usa-sensei?” Tsukasa asked in a whisper.
Unlike the rest of the students, Julie, Miyabi, and Tomoe had seen how strong Rito was, and with her real power, they could see how all of them would be massacred by Rito alone, and somehow they felt stupid for feeling slightly nervous in this match. They also felt if Tsukasa came out, he could deal with all of them easily, so they also didn’t think his reaction was weird. However, they must admit that he was so handsome.
If Tsukasa knew what they were thinking, he wouldn’t be surprised, considering how Julie, Miyabi, and Tomoe were just ordinary girls before they were an Exceed.
While Tsukasa was thinking about whether he should continue to train, suddenly, someone interrupted the selection.
“Lilith?”
They were surprised to see Lilith, the transfer student from England, appear in the arena.
“What’s your deal?”
“Who is she?”
Under the gaze and talk of everyone, Lilith was unfazed, facing everyone. “Sorry to interrupt, but can we start the Dragon’s Bite Battle right now? I’ll take you all on as a first-year representative.”
“Do you want to fight us all alone?”
“Are you out of your mind?”
“You’re not making any sense!”
Lilith only smiled and summoned her Blaze. “Okay then, maybe this will make it more clear.” After those words fell, she shot all of them and defeated all the second years in the arena in a few minutes.
“……”
Except for Julie, Tsukasa, Tomoe, and Miyabi, everyone was dumbfounded by how strong Lilith was.
“This is a problem.”
Sakuya’s voice echoed, attracting everyone’s attention.
As usual, Mikuni stood by her side and glanced at Tsukasa for a moment.
“…….” Tsukasa.
“Even if you’re an “Exception,” it’ll trouble me if you ruin the Dragon’s Bite Battle that I’ve worked so hard to put together,” Sakuya asked, but there was no trace of unhappiness on her face. Only a calm smile that didn’t suit her age appeared on her face, asking that question to Lilith, who messed up everything.
“Don’t worry. In exchange, I’ll host a dance party to deepen my relationship with my classmates. It is I, as the Host, who will take care of them. The dress code will be “Blaze,” and our dancing swords will be the supply of the tune.” Lilith looked at Tsukasa, wanting to see his reaction. “The dance shall be called… Let’s see…” She rotated her rifle in her hand and aimed it at Tsukasa.
“Survival Battle: Survive.”
