Chapter 1828 - The 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion
After his conversation with Miyuki, the event continued as usual, and the girls from the First High School, which consisted of Eimi, Shizuku, and Miyuki massacred everyone on the Ice Pillar Break with their power and won against everyone.
Mayumi didn't talk with the three of them immediately, but rather she watched the Battle Board event since both Honoka and Haru were competing in both girls and boys rookie division respectively.
Everyone also did the same and watched the event, but they had confidence in both Honoka and Haru and they didn't think that both of them would lose, especially Haru.
When the First High School watched the Battle Board game, Tatsuya also watched the event with a group of people. Among the group there were several men and one woman, watching Haru on the screen with interest.
"If he wasn't someone from the 18 Assistant Houses..." one of the men said with a sigh, especially when he thought about Haru's performance before and had to admit that it was so amazing.
"With his character, I don't think that he'll become a soldier," Tatsuya said calmly.
"Oh? Why do you think so, Tatsuya?" One of the men clearly showed an interest in Tatsuya's words.
"........" Tatsuya wanted to say that Haru was Kasugano Haruka, who was the most popular singer in the entire world at that moment, but he knew that Haru had trusted him, so he decided to keep this secret and said, "The salary of the soldier isn't much."
"..............."
"...Does he likes money?"
Tatsuya thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure, but he isn't someone who loves being bound by a rule and I also don't think that he'll be suitable on the 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion. Unless..." He glanced at the only woman in the group, but he didn't say anything.
The 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion is a detachment of the main unit, which is an experimental magic-based unit, separate from the normal chain of command. The 101 in the name of the battalion is read as "One-Zero-One" and not "One-Hundred and First". It was established by Major General Saeki Hiromi.
Major General Saeki Hiromi, the former Commander-in-Chief of the battalion, established the Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion with the aim of having a magic-equipped military force independent from the Ten Master Clans. The Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion carries all the characteristics of black-ops. The current Commander-in-Chief of the battalion is Lieutenant Colonel Kazama Harunobu.
Only the Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion's command structure allows for soldiers during active duty to not be restricted by the military's ranking system, yet still manage to maintain their right to participate on the front lines. Although called a battalion, it is only the size of two companies. The majority of the troops in the battalion are Magicians who use Ancient Magic, such as Kazama and Yanagi Muraji. On some level, all the soldiers are considered lab rats for magical experimentation, but they aren't ashamed of being members of the battalion.
"Eh? What's wrong? Why are you looking at me? The only woman in the group looked at Tatsuya with confused expressions. Her name was Fujibayashi Kyouko and she could be said to be the only flower among the 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion.
"He's quite lustful, so if he sees you then he might be interested in coming to this battalion," Tatsuya said, but then even though his emotion had been erased by his mother, he felt quite weird when he thought Haru might eat Fujibashi Kyouko.
In truth, Tatsuya was a bit worried by the close relationship between Haru and Miyuki, but Miyuki only said to him not to worry since they were only normal classmates, but would a normal classmate be so close?
Tatsuya didn't know, but if Haru dared to hurt Miyuki, he would kill him. His emotion had been erased, leaving only his feeling toward Miyuki, and it was also the reason why his reaction when it was related to Miyuki was so extreme.
"..............."
In an age where the chastity of a girl was very important, the guys would have never done something perverted to a girl, and both a man and a girl needed to marry each other first before they could have sex, Haru's lustful trait was very rare, or rather, it was so rare that it made everyone dumbfounded, after all, the genes of the Magicians was very important and there was no way for them to marry someone randomly, but this guy, even though he was so talented, he had a lot of girls, which made them felt complicated.
It might not be related, but if the Penguin Empire knew there was such a world in the world, then they would be crying in tears, feeling very sympathetic by this world since the sales of the porn was very low or rather there was almost no porn in this world.
Fujibayashi stunned, then looked at Tatsuya with a smile and asked, "So if I get close to him, what do you think?" She rested her hands on her chin while watching Tatsuya's reaction.
"If you're interested, then you can go to him," Tatsuya said simply. His voice was quite cold, but everyone had gotten used to it since this was his character.
"..........." Fujibayashi looked at Tatsuya and couldn't help but shake her head since it wasn't that fun to tease Tatsuya. "Well, I'll try to talk to him later, but first, let's watch his match first."
Everyone looked at Fujibayashi weirdly, but they didn't say much. They were Magicians, and being part of the 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion, they were also considered lab rats for magical experimentation, so something like a relationship or marriage was something that they had never considered since they didn't know when they were going to lose their lives, and serving the country was their purpose of life, rather, if Fujibayashi could become close with Haru, then it might be good, considering the resources that the Rokkaku clan had, as the Rokkaku clan's heir, Haru must have a lot of considerable authority and power on the clan, especially when this clan was the first clan who found the Flying Magic and right now, they were working with the National Defense Force to apply the Flying Magic on the army.
Even though Tatsuya was very talented, with his identity, it was very hard to show all of his capability, and even if he showed his capability, a lot of people would be hostile toward him since he didn't have the power to protect himself beside killing the enemy.
Unlike Haru, who had controlled the media and several people, controlling a number of the politicians, and even tying powerful people on the country with an interest. It could be said that he could control Japan easily, and even a lot of countries in the world by his influence as a singer in the world so he didn't need to fight alone like Tatsuya, rather, he could use a lot of minions to fight a lot of his enemies.
In other words, the Rokkaku clan had become a hegemony like the 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion wanted to win over.
Then everyone watched Haru's event, and they could only stare at him on the screen with dumbfounded expressions, watching him dominate everyone with his ability, but Fujibayashi secretly glanced at the big bulge that was shown through the swimsuit, and somehow she was a bit curious now after she heard Tatsuya's introduction.
As for Haru's lustful trait, Fujibayashi had never seen someone like that, or rather, she could see Tatsuya seemed to be a bit jealous of Haru, even though Tatsuya's emotion had been erased, and it made her even curious about Haru.
Tatsuya looked at Fujibayashi and he was wondering why this woman might be eaten by Haru soon.
