章節 138: Chapter-137 The Competition Begins pt-13
And as for the questions, I will ask "sensei" to help me find some answers!
A blue glint flashed through my eyes.
***
Erik had just dominated the entire [Pillar-Break] event without saying a single word.
He had kept silent the entire time he was performing.
Usually, the crowd would go crazy whenever he would perform but this time was different.
Unanimous silence reigned supreme!
This, of course, raised many questions as to what was the reason for his silence?
Even though he didn't show it, Erik was a little angry at the [No-Head Dragon].
He had known Mari for over two years now and she was one of his close friends.
The action of rigging the contestant's CAD was already illegal but by doing so, they had put the lives of not only one but all contestants in danger!
Mari and the [Seventh-High Contestant] had to face life-threatening accidents just so that some people could make some money?
How detestable!
With all these thoughts going through his mind, he made his way back towards the pavilion.
"Hm?" (Erik)
Suddenly, Erik sensed a spike in the psion-density around three different locations around the arena.
It then occurred to him that in the novel, the [No-Head Dragon] had tried to create chaos during the [Nine-School Competition] using [Generators].
Unfortunately for them, they failed to achieve the desired result due to the combined effort of Tatsuya and the [101-Battalion].
And judging from the multiple powerful presences surrounding these [Generators].
It was safe to assume that the danger would be neutralized with much effort.
"Sigh! Poor souls!" (Erik)
"Forced to suffer under the cruelty of true demons!" (Erik)
Pity!
Yes, Erik felt pity!
Pity for the [Generators]!
Now you may question!
Why!?
Why does he feel pity for the terrorists!?
Well, that's because he wasn't ignorant!
Because he knew of the terrifying truth behind a [Generator]!
For those wondering...
[Generators] were reconstructed Magicians, created to be tools!
Creates using a combination of surgery and magically crafted medicinal herbs.
Eradicating any free will or emotions while completely controlling all thoughts and flushing all unnecessary thoughts that might obstruct magic activation.
The effect of magical herbs' not only adjusted the personal consciousness, emotions, and perception of a [Generator] but also improved their physical mobility.
They being stripped of their emotions couldn't falter!
So they remained stoic in whatever situation they were in!
Innocent magicians converted into soulless dolls!
Only to be used by their creator, to wage wars and spread terror.
If you hate a [Generator] then you must also hate Tatsuya, they are after all the very same thing!
And so, he could only feel....pity.

(Inside V.I.P box)
The [101-Battalion] sat inside the V.I.P box, they have been observing the competition to see the potential within the young magician.
And to see if any one of them were worth recruiting?
They had just witnessed Erik Saltzman crush every magician within the [Pillar-Break] with any effort and were very surprised!
They were also very interested in knowing the reason behind Mr. Saltzman's seemingly omnipotent talent!
Unfortunately, their contemplation was cut short by a surge in the psion-density around the arena.
"Commander Yanagi, I feel an intense spike in energy around us!" (Mob.1)
One of the [101-Battalion] members immediately informed his superior of a dangerous spike in energy!
"This energy signature?...a [Generator]!?" (Yanagi)
Yanagi immediately recognized the energy signature of a [Generator] and sprung into action!
*creak*
The floor squeaked under the weight of his feet!
Or rather by the force behind it!
Anyway, he quickly made his way out of the V.I.P box and immediately dashed towards the closest [Generator]!
He was using [Acceleration-Type] to increase his speed so that he could quickly neutralize the danger!
Back inside the V.I.P box, the other members of the [101-Battalion] had a serious expression on their faces.
Seeing their Commander leave, the other members also sprung into action.
"Delta-unit! Move towards the south-east target and minimize the damage!" (Mob.2)
"Beta-unit! Move towards the north-west target and minimize the damage!" (Mob.2)
"We will contact the organizers and inform them of this attack!" (Mob.3)
"Everyone go go go!" (Mob.1)
"Someone, inform Major Kazama about the situation!" (Mob.2)
"Yes sir!" (Mob.3)

(In the Pavilion)
Mari had woken up after taking a long nap and was startled after seeing so many people standing within the pavilion.
Each one of them that serious expressions over their faces and if they were thinking about something very important!
"What happened guys?" (Mari)
"Why so serious?" (Mari)
Mari tried to make light of the situation and joke a little so that her boyfriend wouldn't worry too much!
Unfortunately for her, Naotsugu wasn't having any of that crap and gently grabbed her shoulders.
"Mari, there is something that we think that you should know about..." (Naotsugu)
He spoke in a serious tone!
Unfortunately for him, his words didn't seem to have the desired effect as he had expected them to have!
"Wa-Wait! I a-am not re-ready for that stage yet!" (Mari)
She blushed very hard and started fiddling her fingers while trying hard not to look towards Naotsugu.
"The hell are you on about Woman!? Just listen to me, okay!?" (Naotsugu)
Naotsugu immediately dropped a light karate chop on top of his perverted girlfriend's forehead.
"Ouch! Alright, Naotsugu...say it! Don't scare me like this!" (Mari)
Mari immediately adopted a serious posture as he noticed that Naotsugu wasn't in the mood to fool around.
Naotsugu took in a deep breath and dropped the bomb on his girlfriend!
"Mari...we think that your accident was pre-planned!" (Naotsugu)
Hearing his words, Mari started having a bad feeling about all this.
"What!? What are you saying!?" (Mari)
"Yes, Mari!" (Naotsugu)
"You see...." (Naotsugu)

Mayumi and Suzune motioned for the others to leave and let the love birds spend some time alone.
Even they exited the room and moved towards the main screen when Suzune decided to speak.
"Mayumi-san, can you please go and bring Erik-san to the [Meeting-Room]?" (Suzune)
"With him winning the [Pillar-Break], we are currently holding the first position in the competition." (Suzune)
"But it also marks the end of the Senior-division events except the [Battle-Board] which has been rescheduled on a later date." (Suzune)
"The [Newcomer's Events] are about to begin and we need him to be present when we discuss the strategies for the upcoming events." (Suzune)
Suzune requested Mayumi to go and invite Erik to join them in the [Meeting-Room], to discuss the upcoming events.
Mayumi, of course, agreed to her friend's request.
"Ah, sure!" (Mayumi)
"Thank you, Mayumi!" (Suzune)
"No problem, Su-chan." (Mayumi)
"I will go and get him." (Mayumi)
"Alright!" (Suzune)
