Chapitre 82: Her wish
Inugamigyoubu Tamazuki became the holder of Ser-Veresta!
It had only been a few hours, but the entire Asterisk had known about it.
Why?
Because Tamazuki had never stayed low-key, the moment he got his hands Ser-Veresta, he was ready to announce it to everyone in the Asterisk and the world, but the high-level people in the Seidoukan and the executives on the Asterisk quickly stopped him since they wanted to turn him into a secret weapon.
The Festa would be held in a few months, and naturally, everyone in the Seidoukan and Ginga hoped he would win this tournament and achieve a Grand Slam, so in order for him to have a bigger advantage on the Phoenix Festa, they wanted him to the matter of Ser-Veresta as a secret.
However, he couldn't be stopped and just announced this matter anyway.
"....."
Everyone was speechless, but when they saw how well he was with the Ser-Veresta, they decided to believe in him. How to say... it was also good to make an invincible brand known as Inugamigyoubu Tamazuki. Still, even so, they kept the video recording of his compatibility tests a secret. Moreover, they knew they had gotten good data from Tamazuki, and they could tell the Ser-Veresta could become even stronger under his hands. Yet, the reason why they agreed to all of this was that even if the other schools, what could they do? In their minds, the Festa was already as good as his.
Each company naturally sent their spies to other companies, but there was the part that was impossible to be breached or invaded by a spy like the Materiel Department, the facility in which he had taken his test before.
With that said, the way executives of Ginga (The parents of the Seidoukan) had changed, and as long as it was within their limit, they would help Tamazuki with anything, especially in business, since they knew in the world of business; he was also a monster. Lastly, deep inside, they hoped that he could grow into a similar existence to Banyuu Tenra since that way, they could have powerful backing that could help their student to become stronger.
As Ginga was located in Japan, Tamazuki often worked together with this powerful company, and as of now, he had become a parasite that tried to fatten himself through the calf of this monster.
However, while Tamazuki, the Seidoukan, and Ginga were in a good mood, the other schools and companies couldn't stay calm. No one doubted that Tamazuki was a monster, and even if he had never confirmed it, everyone knew that he had the ability to either rob, copy, or learn the techniques of others to perfection with just a moment.
Then, they were told someone like that had become the holder of the Ser-Veresta.
Could they calm down? No!
Yet, what could they do? They could do nothing, and they could only continue to do what they were doing as they worked even harder.

"Hmph!"
Dirk grumbled, feeling annoyed before he let out a helpless sigh, but it didn't matter since Le Wolfe Black Academy had never focused on the Phoenex or even Gryps. Instead, his academy had always focused on the Lindwurm, which was the most popular Festa, and he had his own ace. When he thought about that ace, he knew that no matter how strong Tamazuki had become, it was impossible to become a threat to that witch.
Still, without a doubt, the stronger Tamazuki was, the more reassuring their corporation was. The only problem was about the two talented scientists that he favored; he wondered whether their dream was crushed by Tamazuki.
"So amazing..." Korona's eyes shone brightly.
"....." Dirk.

In the laboratory, two girls stared at the news, which appeared so abruptly.
"What do you think, Ernesta?"
The exotic beauty asked her partner, who seemed silent for a while. Usually, her partner had this sloppy and annoying smile on her face, but strangely enough, she was solemn now. Yet, this was normal, especially when they learned about the news of him getting his hands on the Ser-Veresta, the Black Furnace Blade.
The two had a dream, and to realize that dream, they had to win the Festa.
Yet, could they win against this monster?
"Hahaha... this has become more interesting! If we can defeat him, then our dream is even closer, right?"
"Ernesta..."
Ernesta didn't give up. The flames in her eyes blazed even hotter.
"It doesn't matter, and we can't control him, but I want his data more. Also, who do you think will become his partner at the Phoenix Festa?"
As they talked about what they should do, a certain girl was also in a complex mood. When she thought that he had become even stronger, she started to question whether it was possible for her to defeat him. She had to win the Festa since she had a dream that she wanted to realize. Except for becoming the champion of the Festa, she couldn't think of any way to realize them, so she had to win.
Yet, even now, she hadn't found her partner on the Festa. Still, a certain someone emerged in her head, and this person was the first person she thought to become her partner since he could give her a surprise, yet she realized that this person was nothing, especially in front of Tamazuki.
Tamazuki was invincible.
This thought was already planted in the minds of everyone's subconscious, especially those who had lost to him. No matter how hard, struggle, or anything they showed, it was meaningless.
However, this was normal since unless they were protagonists or had a "Nakama Power," it was impossible for one to have good confidence all the time.
This girl wasn't a protagonist, and she didn't have a friend, so it was impossible for her to have a "Nakama Power." Instead, she was realistic, and she knew when one wanted something, she had to pay a certain price.
Her relationship with Tamazuki was zero, and even if they knew each other, their relationship was far from good. Even with her status as a princess, she could tell how much disinterest he had toward her. Her princess status meant nothing. She also thought the same since her status couldn't bring her anything, especially when it couldn't help to achieve her dream.
Hesitating, thinking as her head kept drowning in the spiral of negative thoughts, she could only find one solution. She had to find him and talk to him since she knew the only way she could achieve her dream was to have him as his partner on the Phoenix Festa.

Tamazuki knew that many people wouldn't be able to sleep because of him, but it was good since that way, their state wouldn't be good, and he could weaken them with mental warfare, but he hoped that they could go all out, so they could push him even further. His growth in this world was incredible, but it was far from enough.
The limit which he felt was still unable to be broken.
Whether it was his physical ability or "Osore," he wanted them to become even higher, yet how?
"Tamazuki. Do you have a wish?"
Claudia leaned on his chest, asking him this question.
After they finished the test, she brought him to her room immediately, and they did something that shouldn't be done in her dorm once again.
Her face was flushed red as if she was drunk from the liquor known as love.
"Wish?"
Claudia was stunned by his confusion. "...you don't know?"
"What should I know?" Tamazuki was confused.
"If you win Festa, you will be granted a wish. No matter what it is, the IEF will grant your wish. Naturally, it can't be something that is impossible to grant like immorality."
"What about world domination?"
"........."
"I was kidding, but I don't have that kind of wish. The reason I came to this island is to become stronger. The rest of that is number two."
"Then, am I also the number two?"
"Yes."
"....."
Claudia bit his neck with all of her might.
"Ow! Ow! I was kidding."
"You were kidding?"
"Yes, I might have thought so before, but after getting to know you, you have become an important part of my life, and I am glad to know you, Claudia..."
"Tamazuki..."
Claudia couldn't control her emotion, and she kissed him with all of her might without letting him go. She loved him, wanted him, and wished to be with him forever. This is what she thought in her mind, but all of her thoughts stopped when she heard his question.
"Do you have a wish, Claudia?" Tamazuki asked.
"...I do." Hesitating, she answered.
"Then, if I win the Phoenix, I will give you a chance to realize your wish."
"...really?" She was at a loss.
"Yes." He gently patted her head, then stared at her with a stern expression. "But I expect you to repay me well, okay?"
"..."
If he knew what she wished for, what would he think?
She didn't know, but she knew she was glad to meet him and would use everything to make him happy.
