Capítulo 632: -624- Call me that from now on
"Rozen!"
"Subaru! Stop!"
Finally, Yaya and Hinowa were forced to halt their clash, their attention fully captivated by Rozen and Subaru, struggling to separate the two.
It all began when Rozen noticed the effort Subaru was putting into driving his fist towards his face, a silk glove adorning his right hand.
"You're a glove wielder too, Subaru?"
Rozen questioned the young man trying to land a punch on him.
"Of course! I'm ranked 17th!"
Subaru replied, continuing to exert force while glaring at Rozen.
"I heard you're only 101st, quite pathetic. Do you even dare claim you defeated me, the 17th?"
Before Rozen could respond, the words were already heard by the students in the classroom.
"Hey, did you hear that?"
"The transfer student actually defeated the 17th ranked?"
"So... does that mean he's stronger than the 17th?"
"People ranked before 50 are selected based on practical skills!"
"Stronger than the 17th?"
"And he knows the Princess of the aristocracy?"
"Could he be a 'Thirteen' level Automaton user?"
"No way..."
The students couldn't contain their excitement, and even Charl finally looked straight at Rozen, making the dragon on her hat seem a bit cautious.
But for Rozen at this moment, these discussions were of little importance.
"I just transferred here, scored full marks in the entrance test. If it weren't for the Night Party not passing or some selection based on the top 50 strength, do you think I'd settle for such a cold rank?"
Rozen retorted, pushing Subaru back with force, reigniting the excitement of the entire room.
"Full marks...!?"
"How is that even possible?"
"This has to be a hoax!"
The students made these judgments one after another.
"Full marks?" Subaru exerted more force, trying to match Rozen, and shouted, "Who do you think you're fooling? I don't believe your nonsense!"
"Do you think I have an empty head like you?" Rozen smirked and said, "According to that indifferent teacher, there's only one person in the whole academy who can match my grades. His name is Magnus, I believe."
At these words...
"...!?"
Subaru's face froze.
"Uh..."
Mutsura, who stood helplessly behind, also opened his mouth, unable to utter a word.
"Nuragami-sama..."
Even Hinowa's expression changed slightly upon hearing Rozen mention that name.
The atmosphere in the room immediately quieted down from the previous bustling state.
In the end, Rozen, seemingly expecting this reaction, remained indifferent.
"Since you're a Night Party participant, there's no need to compete here. After all, I'll also participate in the Night Party. We can settle our score there."
Saying this, Rozen separated from Subaru.
It seemed like he no longer had the need to continue this contest, but truth be told, Rozen was quickly running out of energy, so he sought a way to withdraw from the situation gracefully.
Who wouldn't restrain themselves when 'Rigid Body' could only enhance Rozen's physical capabilities, not his stamina?
So, matching strength with the robust Subaru quickly drained Rozen's energy.
Of course, if Rozen didn't hold back, Subaru would have been sent flying by Kinu's cloak before he could reach Rozen to throw a punch, thus no contest would have taken place.
And so, the reunion after a long separation finally came to an end.
"Hmph!"
Subaru snorted, turned around, and seemed like he didn't want to look at Rozen again, just like in their childhood, straightforward and unambiguous, truly a rough guy.
At this moment, Mutsura found an opportunity to approach.
"Long time no see, Nuragami."
Mutsura greeted Rozen openly, appearing much more gentle compared to their childhood. It was a stark contrast to Subaru.
"You're here too, Mutsura."
Rozen looked at Mutsura.
Although he looked like a pretty boy and could be mistaken for a girl, the young man in front of him, in terms of background and status, was no less than Subaru. He was Yuge Mutsura, the legitimate son of the Yuge family, on par with the Kamo family, who were the top figures in the Far East.
After many years, the young boys and girls who were once ignorant and naive and used to run wild in the forbidden land of the Izanagi clan were reunited here.
A single glance was enough for Rozen to see that these three were vastly different from the past.
Both Subaru and Mutsura had a tremendous amount of magic power flowing within them, and they wore gloves that symbolized their qualifications to participate in the Night Party. The former was ranked 17th, and the latter was at least in the top 30. This was a far cry from their helpless situation in the forbidden land.
Not to mention Hinowa; just by the reactions of the people around her, one could tell her status within the academy. There was even a hint of demonic aura emanating from her. She was no longer the little princess that needed protection.
"I didn't expect you all to be here and preparing to participate in the Night Party."
Rozen's gaze swept over the three childhood playmates, and he smiled.
"I thought the Izanagi clan wouldn't be interested in the title of the Wiseman."
Why would they?
Even though the title of Wiseman was coveted by talents from all over the world, the Izanagi clan was an aristocracy of the Far East, the pillar of the nation. From their standpoint, they should be the ones to pull in the Wiseman, rather than aspiring to become one themselves.
Even though the Wiseman held significant privileges and could research taboos at will, these three were destined to inherit their families and couldn't engage in any research.
So, the fact that the three of them appeared here was genuinely surprising to Rozen.
In response, Subaru's brows furrowed while Mutsura forced a smile, seeming unsure of how to explain.
In this situation...
"Nura..."
Hinowa stepped forward, her gaze fixed on Rozen, about to say something, but Rozen interrupted her.
"I'm Rozen now, so call me that from now on."
Rozen corrected this and spoke up.
"We'll talk later; this isn't the place for discussion."
Rozen reminded them, and only then did Hinowa and the others realize where they were.
"At least you're a bit more awake now. I thought you'd completely forgotten where we are," Kimberly said coldly. "Disturbing classroom discipline aside, causing such a commotion during class shows that the Izanagi clan of the Far East is quite the big shot."
Kimberly exuded an unpleasant atmosphere.
"S-Sorry!"
Hinowa only now realized what they had done and immediately lowered her head in embarrassment, followed by Subaru and Mutsura quickly doing the same.
However, Kimberly didn't even spare a glance at the three of them and instead focused her gaze on Rozen.
"Since this started because of you, you're responsible for taking them away for me," Kimberly said coldly. "As for you, I'll deduct points from this lesson."
Hearing this, Rozen shrugged, grabbed Hinowa's hand, and pulled her out of the classroom, making her face turn red. Meanwhile, Subaru, gritting his teeth, chased after them.
"Ugh."
Mutsura, on the other hand, followed nonchalantly.
"Heheh... Heheh..."
Yaya, emitting a menacing aura that made the surrounding students tremble, chuckled ominously and followed suit.
And so, Rozen and his group left the classroom, skipping the lesson.
