Chapter 367
When Ikki heard the name of his opponent, he knew Akaza didn’t even let him escape. Instead, he wanted to trap him, but he had decided to accept this duel, so there was no turning back for him.
Railgun, Touka Toudou.
As someone who aspired to become a mage-knight, Ikki obviously knew who this person was. Instead, it would be weird if he didn’t know her. After all, Touka had just defeated Shizuku, and Touka was also the girlfriend of his best friend, Tsukasa.
However, what was even more enchanting was her identity as last year’s champion of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival!
Ikki’s goal was to become the champion of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, so he could graduate and gain his license to become a mage-knight. In other words, even if he didn’t want to, he had to fight against Touka Toudou.
However, there was one big question on his head.
‘Can I win?’
Ikki was known as the weakest, and Touka was known as the strongest.
It was obvious who would win against them.
Ikki also didn’t even think he could handle Touka’s “Raikiri,” her most basic attack, which was known as an ultra-electromagnetic battoujutsu. He also had heard the reason why Touka wanted to win was that she wanted to show everyone that even if she was an orphan, she could win the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival. She wanted to become a beacon for those orphans so they wouldn’t give up on their lives.
On the other hand, Ikki came for his own reason. It was selfish, so he started to doubt whether he could win against Touka since the weight she endured was several times heavier than him!
Watching Ikki, who started to become low, Akaza was happy, but suddenly his phone vibrated. His mood was good, so he answered without much thought. “Hello? Oh! It’s the miss of the Totokubara clan! Is there something that I can help you with?” His mood was good, so he was quite good at Kanata, who suddenly called him, and her identity made him even more respectful since she came from the 2nd richest Zaibatsu in this country. However, Kanata’s following words caused him to frown and bark, “What do you mean by that?!”
“Akaza, watch your position! Even if you’re the head of the Ethics Committee, you don’t have a right to control me, or does sitting in that position make you feel so comfortable? Should we change your position with someone else?”
Akaza gritted his teeth, but he couldn’t say anything. After all, even the Ethics Committee or even the League of Mage-Knight Nations couldn’t control everything.
The League of Mage-Knight Nations, the organization which controlled the Ethics Committee, might be able to control all the Blazers who came from the countries that joined this organization. However, it didn’t mean they were able to control the countries which joined their organization.
It might seem weird, but those countries which joined this organization couldn’t control the Blazers in their own countries, even if the prime ministers or others couldn’t say anything in this regard.
While it sounded quite ridiculous and even stupid, those weak countries without a strong Blazer were afraid of those countries with a strong Blazer. After all, with just one strong Blazer, it was possible to destroy a country. It was also the reason why all the Blazers who joined this organization were under the control of this organization instead of the country.
Those mage-knight schools such as Hagun Academy also weren’t under the control of Japan. Instead, it was under the control of the organization.
However, it was also the reason that the organization couldn’t say anything or try to enter the voice of the country since if they did so, this organization might have had internal turbulence and even died, so Akaza couldn’t say anything about this accusation. “So, who is going to be his opponent?”
Ikki looked up and watched Akaza with wonder since he didn’t know what had happened. However, he knew his opponent might change at this moment.
“…Kugayama Tsukasa?”
Kugayama Tsukasa, even Akaza, had heard his name since he had heard what kind of crazy things happened around him. His life was full of mystery, and he was also so close with Nangou Torajirou, the God of War, and Nene Saikyo, Yaksha Princess. However, he knew one thing was for sure, Tsukasa was a man with power, and Kanata also reassured him that Tsukasa was strong, so he decided to believe, and after talking for a while, the call was hung.
“….”
Akaza took a deep breath and calmed himself since he was afraid he was going to get angry. He then looked at Ikki and smiled. “Congratulations, your opponent has changed.”
“…Who?” Ikki asked, but somehow he could tell who his opponent was.
“It’s Kugayama Tsukasa.” Akaza smiled, then said, “I hope you can do well on this duel.”
‘Tsukasa!’
Ikki was dumbfounded and also excited since he would be lying if he didn’t feel excited to fight against Tsukasa. After all, Tsukasa was a strong swordsman, and if he fought him, he knew he could get stronger.
However…
‘Can I win?’
Ikki knew if he wanted to win against someone stronger, he needed to know everything about his opponent, whether it was style, physical ability, magic, Device, and even the very essence of that opponent, especially when he thought about Tsukasa’s ability.
Ikki somehow had a headache.
Akaza smiled when he saw Ikki’s reaction, then he said, “Oh, right, your father wants to meet you. Get up and meet him.”
“Father?”
Ikki was dumbfounded, and all the dark thoughts on his head vanished since he thought his father came with good intentions.
—
“Thanks.”
Tsukasa and Kanata were at her dorm, cuddling with each other.
Kanata was in his arms, sitting on his lap while leaning on his chest with a sigh. She looked at him and asked, “So how are you going to pay me?”
“…I’ll let you be at the top,” Tsukasa said with great humiliation on his face.
“Really?” However, Kanata was so excited since, for once, she wanted a taste to humiliate him from above!
“Yes.” Tsukasa sighed and wondered why so many women wanted to be at the top position. However, it might be because they could see the delight of the man they loved? Or did they just want to humiliate the man when they were at their peak of delight?
Tsukasa wasn’t sure, but he was a wild horse, so he was afraid, as a newbie cowboy, whether Kanata could ride him or not. However, even if she fell, it didn’t really matter since he could ride her by then.
Still, when Tsukasa was about to reach Kanata at how to ride this beast, Touka entered the dorm and looked at the two.
“…Why don’t you wait for me?”
“……..”
“Okay, come on.”
Tsukasa decided to fight the two strongest Blazers in the Hagun Academy together.
Let’s go ahead!
