After parting ways with Noah, Stella returned to her dormitory while thinking about how she could date Noah. Because after seeing that Edelweiss was also Noah's girlfriend, she felt she had to attack Noah more aggressively or she would be left behind.
But even though Stella may have a straightforward and bold personality, she still feels shy and confused about how to start.
While Stella's mind was wandering, that's when she realized she had arrived at her room.
After opening the door, she saw Shizuku eating a snack. The moments he saw Shizuku, she got an idea on how to start.
"Nee, Shizuku, don't you love your brother?" Stella asked.
Suddenly hearing Stella's question, Shizuku answered with a smile.
"Of course, I love onii-sama more than anyone else"
"Then how about we have a double date the day after tomorrow?" Stella asked.
Hearing this, Shizuku's eyes lit up and looked at Stella as if she had seen a confidant.
"Sure" said Shizuku.
"Then we'll start the strategy to bring down our brother," the two of them shook hands and spoke at the same time.
When class ended and Noah was preparing to go back and practice, Stella came to Noah.
"Noah, it's been a long time since we went out together," said Stella, reminding Noah that he used to often invite him to eat outside near the palace after training. He didn't dare take Stella too far from the palace after Stella was almost kidnapped. Now that his strength and Stella's own strength were no longer weak, he didn't consider that the same thing would happen again.
"Yes, it's been a long time," said Noah while remembering their past memories.
"How about we go on a trip together tomorrow?" Stella asked full of hope.
Finally Noah knew what Stella wanted was a date.
"Sure" said Noah, he couldn't refuse Stella's expectant gaze, besides that, even though he didn't want to admit it, he also loved Stella more than just a sister after what happened at the airport and also his liking for Stella in his previous life.
Hearing Noah's answer, Stella smiled very beautifully and ran to the dormitory to prepare for tomorrow's date.
'I don't know whether this is it or not, but I know that I have fallen in love with Stella' thought Noah as he walked.
As Noah passed through the academy garden he saw a young black-haired girl wearing a red, flower-patterned kimono. He held a folding fan in his hand.
"I don't know what Nene-sensei is doing here?" Noah asked as he approached Nene Saikyou.
"Oho, you know my name?" Nene said while covering her face with a fan.
"Of course, who doesn't know Yaksha Hime". Noah said lightly.
"Oho, I don't know what this young Desperado is doing here?, maybe you are here for me?, no problem, we can have private lessons tonight" Nene said jokingly while leaning on Noah.
"An interesting offer, but unfortunately I'm not interested," said Noah calmly as he removed Nene from his body.
"So, what do you need me for?" Noah asked.
"I just want to see the strong person Kuu-chan talked about" said Nene while waving her fan.
Kuu-chan is Nene's nickname for Kurono.
"I see, then see you later," said Noah as he walked away.
"Wait, I want to see how strong you are," said Nene while attacking Noah.
Seeing Nene disappear, Noah knows that she used "nukiashi".
Nukiashi is a move created by Nanggo Torajiro, this technique combines breathing and footwork to allow him to shorten the distance between himself and his target in an instant. However, it doesn't actually speed up his movements, it just makes it hard to feel and disrupts his rhythm, the opponent becomes unable to react until it's too late.
Even though Noah didn't see Nene, he relied on his instincts and perception to avoid Nene's sudden attack.
"Oho.. you can dodge so easily, not bad" said Nene while holding the fan in front of her face.
"Even though I also want to fight with you, this place doesn't allow it," Noah said calmly.
"What are you doing? Do you want to destroy this place by fighting here?" Said Kurono who suddenly appeared and dragged the back of Nene's kimono.
After seeing them off, Noah continued his journey.
Actually, Noah also wanted to fight Nene, because from what he had read in his previous life, Nene was very strong and her strongest attack was said to be able to affect the sixth dimension.
As we know, the dimensions in which we live now are only four dimensions consisting of three spatial dimensions (length, width and volume) plus time.
Meanwhile, the sixth dimension is a multiverse, so if we can enter the sixth dimension then in theory we can travel the multiverse.
thinking about Nene's information and the sixth dimension, Noah had unknowingly arrived at the academy grounds.
In the field he saw Ikki swinging his sword.
"What a beautiful sword technique, as far as I know, your sword technique is only inferior to Edelweiss" Noah praised Ikki as he walked closer to him.
"Really? I just hope I can meet Edelweiss and fight with him" said Ikki with fighting spirit.
"It's not that I'm looking down on you, but you're not capable enough to face Edelweiss. If you can see the same world as her, then you might be able to compete with her" Noah said lightly when he saw Ikki's fighting spirit.
What Noah meant by seeing the same world as Edelweiss was breaking the shackles of fate and becoming Desperado.
"I will definitely achieve it," said Ikki confidently.
Seeing Ikki so confident, Noah didn't say anything because he knew that as long as Ikki's determination was still strong, becoming Desperado was a sure thing.
"I want to fight with you and I want to know how strong you are" Ikki said frankly.
Since the first time he saw Noah he had long wanted to fight him, because he knew Noah was stronger than him.
Ikki is never afraid of facing strong opponents, because the stronger the enemy he fights, the stronger he will become.
"Okay, I will fulfill your wish," said Noah and summoned his device.
"Aeternum"
Seeing Noah take out his device, Ikki also didn't want to be outdone.
"Appear, Intetsu"
