Chapter Thirty-Three: Advanced Relationships

The disturbance caused by the Japanese branch of [balance] has been successfully resolved thanks to the efforts of Mitsunobu Kushima. The Tenth Master also highly praised Mitsunobu Kushima's active role at the monthly clan meeting.

Mibu Sayaka was discharged from the hospital after only three or four days. Due to Tsukasa's confession, the students of No. 1 High School were forgiven and only given a one-week suspension without being recorded in their files.

Thanks to Mayumi Nanakusa's efforts, the system improvement for students taking two courses was implemented a week after the final exams.

The students in the second subject now have hope for improvement, while the students in the first subject no longer have any desire to be complacent because there are people chasing after them.

Overall, the atmosphere at school is currently quite good.

Although the two groups of students are not yet able to get along very well, the tense atmosphere from before is gone.

Logically, students should be on holiday and no longer need to go to school after the final exams, but there are still many students coming to school now.

All of this is because of one thing: a grand event known as the high school festival.

Nine Schools Battle

This is why the school is still so lively even though it's already on holiday.

Of course, most of the people who gathered there were from various clubs, since many of the sports clubs in the school were established based on the competition format of the Nine Schools Tournament.

The facilities inside are very similar to those in the Nine Schools Tournament, making it easier for students to maintain a good competitive state when practicing at school.

school swimming pool

The luminous green orb of light above the pool resembled a blazing sun.

The pool wasn't filled with water, but with huge ice pillars arranged neatly, each one meter long and wide and about four meters high.

Several beams of light shot out from the emerald green orb, and within seconds, the ice pillars in the pool were all pierced by the rays that split off from the orb.

The split-up group of children seemed to have completed its mission and disappeared into the air, leaving behind only a dilapidated swimming pool riddled with holes.

"Here you go, a sports drink."

Mayumi Nanagusa, who had been waiting on the side, got up from her seat, took out a drink she had prepared in advance from her bag, and handed it to Mitsunori Kushima.

"Thank you, Mayumi."

Kushima Mitsunori took the drink and gulped down two mouthfuls.

This is roughly how the two of them interact now; whenever they have free time, they spend time together and enjoy the atmosphere of being alone.

Of course, neither of them has yet made the first move.

"Is this the magic you said was almost finished when you were in the student council the other day?"

Mayumi stared in astonishment at the dilapidated swimming pool.

She wasn't surprised by the power of Kushima Mitsunori's magic; she was surprised that Kushima Mitsunori could maintain the form of such a large energy ball without it collapsing.

"It's still not working well. The penetrating power of the split-off [atomic rays] has weakened too much. Also, the preparation time required in the early stages is a bit too long, so it can't be applied to actual combat yet."

Kushima Mitsunori shook his head, still somewhat dissatisfied.

His [Atomic Ray] is a high-speed particle-wave cannon fired by manipulating the electronic state between particles and waveforms using acceleration magic and divergence magic.

Its advantage is that it has extremely high speed and strong penetrating power when fired at full power.

Penetrating walls and thick iron plates is a given. Even barriers formed by mages are no exception; according to Kushima Mitsunori's estimation, only the Jumonji family's [Linked Wall Array] could withstand his [Atomic Rays].

The drawback is that it is difficult to control. Even with Kushima Mitsunori's calculation ability, he can only stabilize its structural framework, but cannot drive it at will.

【Dragon Star Cluster】is a super A-level magic concept based on his A-level 【Atomic Ray】 and C-level 【Split Bullet】.

However, judging from the current situation, it is still within the category of A-level magic. After all, if the penetrating power of the [Atomic Ray] itself cannot be achieved, there should be quite a few people who can withstand this move.

"I think you've done quite well; at least your abilities have far exceeded what a high school student should be capable of."

Mayumi Nanagusa's lips curled into a slight bitterness. She was originally quite confident in her own strength, and even when facing those well-established A-rank mages, she still dared to say that she could win.

Since she enrolled in school, she has had a close rivalry with Katsuto Jumonji, who is hailed as a rising star in the Jumonji school.

But ever since she met Kushima Mitsunori, she has felt her confidence being shattered little by little by the boy in front of her.

This is not referring directly to the power of magic, but rather to all aspects.

For example, Mayumi Nanakusa is more skilled in the practical application of magic. Although she is also excellent in engineering and technology, she is still not as good as Suzune Ichihara and Azusa Nakajo, who specialize in these fields.

Releasing and using A-rank magic is not difficult for Nanagusa Mayumi, but that's another story.

But what about Mitsunobu Kushima? He's incredibly powerful, capable of designing outstanding CAD products and creating new A-rank magic—that's practically beyond human capabilities!

"well enough."

Kushima Mitsunori naturally accepted Nanagusa Mayumi's praise.

"But Mayumi, don't you need to practice for the Nine Schools Tournament?"

"Don't come crying to me if you're not well-prepared and someone else takes away your chance for a three-peat!"

Kushima Mitsunori said this to Nanagusa Mayumi in a teasing tone.

"Really? Then do you want to test whether my strength has weakened or not?"

Both of them prefer this way of getting along, or perhaps their personalities are quite similar.

"I'll accept your thanks in this respect."

Kushima Mitsunori quickly shook his head. He didn't want to be subjected to a barrage of dry ice bullets for no reason. If he could fight back, that would be fine, but the problem was that he didn't dare to fight back at all and was just taking the beating for nothing.

"Humph!"

Mayumi Nanagusa gave a soft hum, then continued speaking.

"However, you shouldn't use this magic when you practice ice pillar attack and defense in the future. It's also very troublesome for me to ask the director to repair the field every time."

"The director has already told me that if you damage the site this badly again next time, you'll have to pay for the repairs yourself."

As she spoke, Nanagusa Mayumi imitated the tone of the headmaster who was only over fifty but already had very little hair.

"Yeah!"

Kushima Mitsunori nodded indifferently. After all, the practice venue didn't have to be at school, and even if there was compensation, this amount of money was nothing to him.

Chapter Thirty-Four: Do you have a grudge against him?

Although this training wouldn't make Mitsunobu Kushima sweat, he still took a quick shower.

"Have you decided to sign up for the icicle defense and precision shooting?"

"Actually, the 'Secret Stele Decoding' is more eye-catching in the men's category."

On their way to the student council room, Mayumi Nanagusa asked, "Does Mayumi Nanagusa still remember that Mitsunori Kushima is tasked with shining brightly in the Nine Schools Tournament?"

"There's no other way. If the Secret Stele Decoding were a singles competition, I would have chosen to participate. Among the students, I think only Thirteen Shu can cooperate with me."

Kushima Mitsunori was also in a difficult position regarding this situation, as the quality of the male students in this year's cohort was quite low and could not compare with that of the female students at all.

Decoding the Secret Stele is a three-person team competition, and apart from Thirteen Bundles, he doesn't think anyone can keep up with him.

"Moreover, this year the three highs also have a Bloodstained Prince from the family. Even I couldn't quickly deal with it while limiting high-damage magic in a short period of time."

"In a three-on-two situation, I don't think my victory will feel like a complete rout."

As Kushima Mitsunori was speaking, he noticed that Nanagusa Mayumi was covering her mouth and chuckling after hearing his words, her shoulders twitching as she clearly struggled to keep quiet.

"What's so funny?"

Mayumi Nanagusa shook her head, her long eyelashes drooping to her eyelids, a lingering smile on her lips.

"Hmm, Mitsunori, you're really confident in your abilities! The prince of the Ichijo family would probably be furious if he heard what you said!"

"There's nothing I can do. The Ichijo family's magic, [Explosion], manipulates bodily fluids, so even if I stand right in front of him, it's practically impossible for him to pinpoint my location."

"This is a matter of magic's restraint."

"As for using other counter magic, I don't think the Ichijo Shōki Society has more counter magic than I do."

These words spoken by Mitsunori Kushima were not based on his blind arrogance, but on rational analysis.

He had already mastered so much magic that it couldn't be contained even with two general-purpose CAD programs. [A general-purpose CAD program has a storage capacity of approximately 99 spell formulas.]

This is why he always carries three CAD machines with him.

"But if you don't participate in the Secret Monument Decoding, won't others think you're avoiding Ichijo Masahiro?"

Mayumi Nanagusa's statement makes a lot of sense, because compared to Masaki Ichijo, who had already made a name for himself, Mitsunori Kushima had nothing noteworthy to share except for his excellent performance at school before entering high school.

After all, in the eyes of those who don't know the situation, Ichijou Hikaru is definitely stronger, and Kushima Mitsunobu didn't participate in the most competitive Secret Monument Decoding because he was afraid.

"No, I think that besides decoding the Secret Tablet, the only other thing Hikaru Ichijo will participate in is the Ice Pillar Attack and Defense."

"what!"

Kushima Mitsunori's suggestion made Nanagusa Mayumi realize it immediately.

"It's probably because [Explosion] is very suitable for the attack and defense of ice pillars!"

"That's right!"
