Chapter 124: Tsukasa: Somehow, I feel something exciting will happen
After the accident in the cafeteria, Julie understood how her words could be misunderstood as having sex. However, no one could blame her since even if she had learned Japanese, it wasn't her first language, and she still had many problems, including kanji words.
After they ate, they came to the class to have their first lesson.
Tsukasa could feel an intense gaze from Rito, but he ignored her. However, she wasn't the only one who gave him such a gaze since Tomoe also did something similar to him.
Tomoe kept staring at Tsukasa with a reddened face, and somehow she wanted to do something, but she wasn't sure what to do. However, when he smiled at her, she quickly lowered her head shyly.
As he let out a sigh, thinking how much trouble that he would have with women, Tsukasa heard the explanation of the general knowledge that was explained by Rito. He knew most of the things that she explained since he had mostly read the books in the library of the Kouryou Academy.
"And so, by using Lukifer, your body will become exceptionally stronger, and the more you temper your body through training, the stronger you'll become! Therefore our curriculum consists of a lot of battle practice. So you guys better train hard and become macho!"
"...." Everyone.
Rito ignored everyone's reaction and continued with her explanation. "Okay, Exceed has different levels, which can be raised through the "Ritual of Sublimation." There will definitely be a "Ritual of Sublimation" at the end of the term, but if your body and mind haven't been sufficiently trained, you won't be able to level up. Also, if you don't gain at least one level all year, you'll be expelled."
"..." Everyone.
"To make sure that doesn't happen, next up is battle practice. Hooray! Right?" Rito smiled happily and said, "Ah, right, dear, can you come to me first before the battle practice?"
"No." Tsukasa refused without hesitation.
"....." Rito.
"Geez, dear, don't reject me, alright? I just need a bit of your time."
"No."
"..." Everyone.
"Geez! Geez! Don't treat me like that, alright? I am also a girl! Treat me gently!" Rito pouted, but her face flushed when she was treated baldly by Tsukasa.
Tsukasa didn't say anything and only looked at Mikuni.
"Ahem." Mikuni simply coughed.
"...." Rito looked at Mikuni and could only pout since she knew that she couldn't do anything with Mikuni around.
'However...'
Rito knew that there should be a chance for them to be able to stay alone in the future, and she definitely wouldn't let him go at that time.
After Tsukasa escaped from Rito, he knew that he needed to join the battle practice and physical training such as a marathon and weight lifting. While he didn't mind joining the physical training, he was too lazy to join the battle practice since he felt that all of them were too weak.
Tsukasa didn't joke since he knew that everyone in this place except for Rito and Mikuni was too weak for him to be his opponents, and even if they had leveled up, he also had leveled up, by then, there wouldn't be any comparison between them.
Tsukasa let out a tired sigh, thinking that he needed to focus on his physical training more since that way, he could control his strength better. The sudden increase in his strength was a good thing, but he needed time to adjust his body since the body that had been enhanced by Lukifer was different from his previous body, which was only a peak of a human condition.
While Tsukasa thought to ask Mikuni to do training on his own, Tomoe suddenly came to him and said, "Tsukasa, I challenge you!"
"To-Tomoe-chan!" Miyabi was helpless when she saw her temporary Duo's outburst.
Everyone was also looking at them curiously, wondering what was happening.
Tsukasa and Julie looked at Tomoe at the same time in silence for a moment. After all, her appearance was quite unique. Her entire face reddened, and she fumed, watching his face as if she was his girlfriend who had just found out he had cheated on her.
Well, their relationship hadn't even begun with, which made Tsukasa speechless somehow.
"Match?"
"Yes." Tomoe nodded and said, "We will have a friendly match during the battle practice, and I want to challenge you in that lesson."
"Why?" Tsukasa was confused.
"If-If I win, I want you to apologize to me!" Tomoe said with an embarrassed face.
"Apologize? What did I do?" Tsukasa even became confused.
"I want you to apologize to me for saying that I - I am a perverted girl..." Her voice was so low that only Julie, Tsukasa, and Miyabi could hear her voice. However, they weren't surprised since they knew her words weren't something that could be said out loud.
"You want me to apologize for that?" Tsukasa asked.
"Yes!" Tomoe nodded without hesitation as she stared at his eyes without looking away as if telling him that she wouldn't move until he agreed with her challenge.
Tsukasa looked at Tomoe for a moment and thought that this situation was quite troublesome. He then looked at her for a moment and suddenly got an idea. "Okay."
"Really?" Tomoe was surprised when Tsukasa agreed to her request easily.
"I can agree to your request." Tsukasa nodded and said, "If you win, I'll apologize to you, and I'll even say that Tomoe is a proper, disciplined, and gentle girl who can become the example of everyone."
"Eh? Eh?" Tomoe was happy when she heard his praise, but she asked him unsurely, "...Is that okay?"
"Okay. I'll do it if you win." Tsukasa nodded generously, but suddenly he said, "However, what if you lose?"
"...If I lose?" Tomoe was dumbfounded.
"Yes." Tsukasa nodded and said, "If you win, I'll have to apologize and tell everyone that you're a proper, disciplined, and gentle girl who can become the example of everyone, but if I won, what can I get? Isn't it unfair if I don't get anything?"
"Hmm..." Tomoe thought for a moment and nodded. "That's true. It isn't fair for you."
Tsukasa looked at Tomoe and thought that a good girl was the most gullible.
On the other hand, Julie and Miyabi could only stare at this scene in a daze.
However, their daze came from a different reason.
If Julie was just confused, Miyabi had realized that Tsukasa was a bad boy!
Miyabi knew that Tomoe was being played by Tsukasa. However, she knew that she was too late, especially after Tomoe said, "Then if you win, I can agree to your request."
"Request? Really?"
"Yeah."
"What kind of request?"
"Anything!" Tomoe said without hesitation.
"Anything, eh?" Tsukasa looked at Tomoe for a moment, which caused her to blush.
"Wh-What?!" Tomoe wasn't sure why, but she felt so embarrassed right now!
"Alright, I can't wait for my reward." Tsukasa was excited.
"I-I won't lose so easily!" Tomoe wasn't sure why, but she felt something inside her would change if she lost.
However, it was already too late, and there was no way for this spar to stop anymore.
Standing in the middle of the dojo, Tsukasa and Tomoe faced each other, and soon they would start their spar!
Tsukasa looked at Tomoe and thought his stay in this world wouldn't be as boring as he had thought somehow.
