Chapter 26 An unexpected invitation

Seidoukan Academy, underground vault.

The light was still dim, with only pieces of green universal ore emitting green light, slightly illuminating the space.

"boom!"

With the sound of shattering, pieces of the All-purpose Mineral turned into powder, and the All-purpose Element contained inside flowed out, turning into a stream of green light, which slowly flowed in one direction under the guidance of the bright red light and gathered on Aize's body.

Aize closed his eyes and held the engine of the Black Furnace Demon Sword. The red all-purpose crystal on the engine glowed with bright red light, attracting a large amount of all-purpose element.

Under the influence of these universal elements, Aize's power as a member of the Star Vein Generation continued to rise, and his momentum became stronger and stronger.

"call……"

After a while, Aize exhaled and opened his eyes.

"Just stop here, Blackforge."

At the command, the Black Furnace Demon Sword immediately retracted its bright red light, causing the all-purpose elements around it to no longer gather and dissipate into the air.

Aize stretched out his empty hand, shook it twice, and then smiled.

"Yes, another perfect improvement."

This was the third time that Aize absorbed the power of the Universal Mine with the help of the Black Furnace Demon Sword.

Although it was only the third time, Aize could already feel a very obvious improvement.

Be it physical fitness or star power, after absorbing the universal ore, both are growing rapidly.

The current Aize is much stronger than when he first came to this world.

"Now, even without the Black Furnace, I can easily defeat Yakdi Fanken, right?"

Aize developed such confidence.

When he was named to challenge Yakdi Fanken, Aize had only absorbed the Universal Mine once. Whether in terms of physical ability or star power, he was inferior to him who was once one of the twelve people in the first page.

If the help of the Black Furnace Demon Sword was not taken into account, then Aize at that time could only rely on the fighting instinct brought by his authority to fight on equal terms with the opponent.

And now, after two more absorptions, Aize's physical ability and star power have been greatly enhanced. Not only is he no less inferior to Yakdi Fanken, he is even better.

In this way, Aize's physical ability, star power, combat skills, combat awareness and other aspects will no longer be inferior to Yakdi Fanken, and naturally there is no reason for him to be weaker than the other party.

Even if he doesn't use the Blackforge Demon Sword, if the current Aize fights against Yakdi Fanken again, he can win within ten rounds!
What this means is self-evident.

"Now, I have the strength that is not inferior to the twelve people in the first page, and I truly have the power of a top-ranked person!"

The smile on Aize's face became more and more intense.

"Even without the Black Furnace, relying solely on my own strength, I can still rank among the top ten. It's not impossible for me to even strive for the top five!"

At least, in Aize's opinion, if the current self were to face Julis who had lost her temper in front of the girls' dormitory not long ago, he would not lose even if he did not use the Black Furnace Demon Sword.

Unless Julis had hidden strength at the time, otherwise, she, who was ranked fifth, would most likely be defeated when facing Aze who did not have the Blackforge Demon Sword.

If we add the Blackforge Demon Sword...

"I don't have to wait until the next official ranking battle. I have the strength to challenge that little girl now, right?"

Thinking of the shy girl, Aize couldn't help but mutter.

"I wonder how she is doing now..."

That day, the news that Toudou Kirin rescued Julis in front of the girls' dormitory had already spread widely on the Internet.

Naturally, Aize's appearance was also mentioned.

It was also specifically stated online that after Toudou Kirin rescued Julis, it was Aize who stepped in and saved her from a sneak attack.

Because of this incident, it is said that Todo Kirin has not appeared for a while. She can only be seen in the first-year classroom of the junior high school during class time. But I heard that she did not look very well at that time, and it seemed that she had saved someone but had not gotten anything good in return.

"She was scolded by her uncle, right?"

Because of this incident, Aize would think of Todo Qilin from time to time in the past few days.

Unfortunately, he hadn't been able to run into her outside recently, so he really had no idea how she was doing now.

"drop!"

Just as Aize was adjusting to his body and lost in thought, a spatial window suddenly opened in front of him.

Someone sent him a message, which brought Aize back to his senses. "Huh?"

Looking at the message unfolding on the space window, Aize was stunned.

"Julis Alexia von Lisfeld?"

That’s right, the message was signed by none other than Julis.

The content of the message is also simple.

As mentioned above, in order to express her gratitude for saving him from the sneak attack last time, she planned to invite him and Todo Kirin out for dinner on the weekend.

"I didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the Princess would actually invite people to dinner."

To be honest, Aize was still quite surprised.

If he remembered correctly, although Julis had a good appearance, strong abilities, and a distinguished family background, she was too upright and often treated others in an impolite manner, so in the eyes of others, she was a very difficult person to get along with.

Julis entered the Seidoukan Academy when she was in the third year of the middle school. She has been studying there for about a year now. However, during this year, except for Claudia who occasionally appears beside her, she does not have any close friends around her.

She is such a person, but now she would actually take the initiative to invite others to dinner...?
"Could it be a by-product?"

Not knowing what he was thinking about, Aize smiled.

"Outside?"

Aize was really moved.

Thinking about it carefully, since I came to this world, I seem to have never left the Xingdaoguan Academy to take a look outside.

Although Asterisk is a duel city, in addition to the six academies and the stage and facilities for the Star Martial Arts Festival, it also has normal residential areas, living areas and even commercial areas.

"It's a rare opportunity, so let's go and have a look."

I can also take this opportunity to see how Toudou Qilin is doing now.

I just don't know if the girl controlled by her uncle will agree to this invitation...

Thinking about this, Aize didn't slow down and replied to Julis.

"I'll be there on time."

…………

On the weekend, outside the gate of Xingdaoguan Academy.

On this day, Aize, who had already adapted to his improved strength, rarely got up early to exercise. Instead, he changed into casual clothes and came to the meeting place.

"Student Ai! Here!"

When Aize walked out of the school gate, a voice immediately called him.

The other party was naturally not the serious Julis, but someone who was not mentioned in advance.

He had loose black hair and a loose expression. He wore a shirt and a thin jacket on the upper body and ordinary jeans on the lower body. He was a very ordinary boy from his appearance to his dress.

When he saw the other party, Aize showed an expression that said "as expected".

"It's you, Amagiri-san."

The opponent was none other than Amagiri Ayato.

Next to Amagiri Ayato, Julis was standing there.

Unlike Amagiri Ayato who was dressed normally, this witch who looked righteous in the past was wearing a black and pink dress. The skirt of the dress was slightly short, and her slender thighs were covered with frilly over-the-knee stockings. She was holding an umbrella in her hand, and was dressed in a very girlish style, which was very different from her usual image.

If someone who is used to seeing Julis in her usual appearance saw her dressed like this, they would definitely look as if they had seen a ghost, right?
Even Amagiri Ayato seemed surprised, and he looked somewhat uncomfortable standing next to Julis, like a poor partner who was ashamed of himself.

“Are you here?” Julis saw Aize appear, looked at him for a moment, and then said with some satisfaction: “Very good, this is more appropriate, unlike someone who is dressed too casually and is unbearable to look at.”

Although Aize was not dressed up, he looked much better than Amagiri Ayato who was dressed casually. He wore a white top with a black jacket, black pants, and sports shoes, giving off a low-key cool vibe.

"Just some random clothes I took out of my closet."

Aize spoke the truth, and before Yulis could speak again, he looked at the two of them with a smile on his face.

"Actually, you two don't need to invite us, you can go on the date by yourselves."

In one sentence, the defense of a man and a woman was successfully broken.
