The Irregular at Magical Worlds

Ultimately, the mystery surrounding this world is still too low. Even if strategic-level magic can achieve a high level of destructive power, that is not the true power of strategic-level magic itself.

Most strategic-level magic requires specific environments and the triggering of natural phenomena to achieve its power to destroy an army or military base.

For example, consider Sirius, the captain of the American Stars, and his [Heavy Metal Burst].

This magic transforms heavy metals into high-energy plasma, increasing the pressure and amplifying the electromagnetic repulsion between cations, thus spreading the magic over a wide area.

This magic, unless fired in an area with a significant amount of heavy metal, will not be as powerful as his [Atomic Ray].

Therefore, when he was creating his own strategic-level magic, he deliberately avoided magic with strict usage requirements and instead studied the current [Dragon Star Cluster].

What I never expected was that everything was ready, but the problem arose because the materials were not strong enough.

Even if the materials collected are completed, it would probably only be a one-time item that can be used to launch two spells.

"There's no other way. If we can't find suitable materials, we'll just make it first and finish the magic gun in the next world!"

"But I heard from Grandpa that Yu Yi is spending all his time in the lab every day in order to find suitable materials, and he doesn't even come home, which makes me feel a little embarrassed."

Kushima Mitsunobu rubbed his swollen and sore eyes, deciding to stop thinking about these things. After all, these were limitations imposed by the world's environment, and there was no solution no matter how hard he tried.

"Ok?"

Just as Kushima Mitsuyuki put down his mobile device, he saw two familiar figures walking up the stairs. The boy saw him the moment he came up, whispered something to the girl he was with, and then the two of them walked over together.

"Tatsuya-kun, Shiba-kun, would you like to go shopping together?"

Since they had already arrived, Kushima Mitsunori quickly stood up to greet them.

"Yes, because Miyuki wanted to buy some new summer clothes, so I came to accompany him shopping."

Shiba Tatsuya nodded slightly in response to Kushima Mitsunori.

He was dressed in the same formal suit as Mitsunobu Kushima today, as if he had just finished discussing business somewhere.

"So, Kushima-kun, are you shopping with the president today?"

Shiba Miyuki asked with a curious expression. After all, these two were one of the few high school couples around her, and she was quite interested in the progress of their relationship.

Shiba Miyuki's outfit was quite simple: a pure white knee-length dress with floral trim, and her long legs were completely covered by black stockings.

"Yes, Mayumi and her twin sister are inside. I'll wait outside."

"In that case, Miyuki, why don't you go in and stroll around with the president?"

"Guangxuan and I will just wait here!"

Shiba Tatsuya lowered his head and whispered to Shiba Miyuki.

"Yes, elder brother!"

The two, who sat down again, only discussed some technical problems with CAD and some school-related matters.

To be honest, Kushima Mitsunori had always wanted to find time to talk to the Shiba siblings about their hidden Yotsuba identity, but he hadn't been able to find the time because he was always busy.

However, it didn't seem appropriate to discuss such matters in the current setting, so Kushima Mitsunori refrained from speaking.

"Tatsuya-kun, what are your plans for the rest of the summer?"

"Ha! Probably not! After all, Miyuki and I are just ordinary students! We usually rest at home during holidays, and going out shopping like this is just an occasional thing."

Kushima Mitsunori was speechless as he watched Shiba Tatsuya lie to him with a straight face. As a direct descendant of the Yotsuba family, how could he say he had plenty of free time? Before you say that, please take off the suit you're wearing.

Where would people choose to wear a suit when they have nothing to do? Normal people would choose to wear casual clothes when they go out!

However, Kushima Mitsunori did not intend to expose his lie here; he had mentioned that sentence earlier for another reason.

"Since you're free, how about we go to her private beach together?"

P.S.: Chapter 3 is here.

Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Young Lady's Good Fortune

"Shall we go to the chairman's private beach?"

"Won't this disturb you?"

Even Shiba Tatsuya found it hard to accept the sudden change of topic, and he himself was aware that he wasn't close enough with Kushima Mitsunori and his group to go out together.

"No, besides, it's not just the two of us. The members also include Watanabe-senpai and Mayumi's two younger sisters."

"ha......."

"Although I really want to accept the invitation right away, I still need to discuss it with my sister. I'll let you know my answer tonight!"

Shiba Tatsuya personally didn't want to agree, but this was his younger sister's precious high school life, and she might be interested in going to the beach with her friends.

"Out."

Kushima Mitsunori ended the conversation between the two and got up with Shiba Tatsuya to greet the group of girls.

Both of them naturally accepted the handbags from their sister and girlfriend.

As for the Nanagus twins' tote bags, Kushima Mitsunori naturally didn't reach out to take them. If it were a bag containing clothes, he would naturally help carry the things.

But inside were either underwear or swimwear, which was something he, as the brother-in-law, could never touch.

However, he now had another idea: to secretly see what kind of swimsuit Nanagusa Mayumi had bought.

"Don't peek! It's what you said, Guangxuan, that we'd reveal it later."

As if she could read Kushima Mitsunori's mind, Nanagusa Mayumi snatched the bag from his hand and whispered something in his ear.

"Senior Miyuki, it's really nice to meet you today."

Nanakusa Izumi's eyes sparkled like stars, as if she had found her direction in life.

What's wrong with your sister?!

As Kushima Mitsunori watched the figure circling around Shiba Miyuki, he felt that the scene seemed somewhat familiar.

"It seems like I was captivated after seeing Miyuki just now."

"Izumi, don't be too enthusiastic, it will cause trouble for Miyuki-senpai."

Nanagusa Mayumi quickly stepped forward and pulled her somewhat irrational younger sister back, because she had already seen Shiba Miyuki frowning.

Having gotten rid of Nanakusa Izumi, Shiba Miyuki secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After exchanging contact information with Nanakusa Izumi, she quickly left with Shiba Tatsuya.

Seeing Nanakusa Izumi holding her phone with a happy expression opened Kushima Mitsunori's eyes; he had never realized Nanakusa Izumi was this kind of person before.

Since dinner was already arranged at Nanagusa's house, they didn't eat out. After buying clothes, they went to Nanagusa's mansion together.

Of course, Hirokazu Nanagusa was already waiting in the living room.

"Dad, let's go upstairs and change our clothes."

After greeting Nanagusa Mayumi and Nanagusa Hiroichi, she led the two sisters upstairs.

"Guangxuan, you don't mind me calling you that, do you?"

"Of course, Uncle, please make yourself at home."

"Then come with me to the study for a chat? There's still a while before dinner starts."

Kushima Mitsunori naturally nodded in agreement and followed Nanagusa Hiroichi to his study.

Hiroichi Nanakusa's study was decorated in a very ordinary way, with a large desk and a leather swivel chair behind which was a large bookshelf filled with books.

The room was decorated with green plants all around and on the table.

After the two took their seats, Hirokazu Nanakusa spoke.

"Come to think of it, this should be our first meeting!"

"I don't think I've ever seen you, Guangxuan, attend a banquet held between clans before."

Hiroichi Nanakusa asked tentatively, a question he himself hadn't fully investigated.

He naturally knew that Kushima Shinon had a young son, but the Kushima family had always been responsible for communication between the clans through Kushima Mitsunori's older brother and sister.

As for Kushima Mitsunori, he had never shown his face, so Nanakusa Hiroichi assumed that Kushima Shingen's newborn son must have no magical aptitude or extremely low aptitude, which was why he had been hiding his identity all this time.

Because in their eyes, Kushima Shingen's aptitude was already extremely poor, and his previous offspring were only slightly better than ordinary family magicians, but not by much. It was only natural that he thought this way.

A few months ago, when he first heard from Kushima Retsu that Kushima Mitsunori was going to be promoted to First High School, he didn't pay much attention. In his mind, he would at most be a second-year student.

However, when Kushima Retsu contacted him saying he wanted to get engaged to Nanakusa Mayumi, he then carefully investigated Kushima Mitsunori's background.

He broke all the test records at the start of the semester, and according to his intelligence, he was also closely related to Mitsunobu Kushima when resolving the [balance] riot.

With all that in place, and the fact that the next head of the Kushima family has already been chosen to be engaged to Kushima Mitsunori and his outstanding eldest daughter, there shouldn't be any problems.

That's why he agreed.

But what Kushima Mitsunori's performance during the Nine Schools War really shocked him. The bloodstained prince, whom the Ichijo family was most proud of, was like a toy that Kushima Mitsunori could play with at will.

"Because I was always learning magic and magic crafting techniques, my grandfather naturally told me to interact with other people more, but I was just too busy at that time."

These matters did not involve any secrets, and Kushima Mitsunori had no need to hide them, so he told Nanakusa Hirokazu the truth.

Hiroichi Nanakusa readily accepted the offer and even took out a ring-shaped CAD device from his drawer and placed it on the table.

"Without constant hard work, it would have been impossible to create such an excellent CAD product at this age."

"It's a pity that the person I sent was a little too late, otherwise I would have wanted a CAD just like Mayumi's!"

Hirokazu Nanakusa fiddled with the ring on the table while making half-joking remarks.

"Uncle, you're too kind. I'll send someone from my company to customize a CAD file for you as soon as I get back."

"That's really nice."

Hirokazu Nanakusa smiled gently, and the two chatted about mundane things until a maid came up to call them down for dinner.

"Nakakura, what do you think?"

After finishing dinner and seeing off Mitsunobu Kushima, Hirokazu Nanakusa sat in a chair in his study, as if talking to thin air.

The bookshelf was pushed open, not from the side, but from the inside out.

An elderly man with a full head of white hair, whose age was comparable to that of Ken Kuki, walked out from inside.

"The adults and young lady have excellent judgment. Young Master Kushima is an exceptionally talented individual."
