Chapter 1829 - This Is A Great Chance, Right?
After he won the Battle Board, Haru went to the tent of the First High School where Miyuki, Eimi, Shizuku, and Mayumi had been waiting for him.
Suzune walked next to him, holding a towel, helping to dry his hair. "Take off your glasses first."
"Oh." Haru didn't think too much and took off his glasses, but the moment he took them off, there was a loud scream.
"KA - KASUGANO HARUKA!?" Eimi was dumbfounded, but then her eyes were full of stars.
".........."
Suzune, Miyuki, Shizuku, and Mayumi forgot that Eimi didn't know about Haru's identity, and luckily, there was only Eimi here.
"Please give me a sign!" Eimi took a note out of nowhere and bowed her head.
"........."
"Cough! Cough! Akechi-san, we need to talk about the event first," Mayumi said with a stern tone.
"I - I'm sorry, President!" Eimi quickly apologized.
Mayumi sighed and somehow understood Eimi's reaction, after all, she was also Haru's fan, but she reacted better, after all, she was coming from a famous magician clan, so her demeanor was completely different from Eimi's childish character. "It's alright, I'm sure he'll give it to you later after we talk about the event."
"Yes, I'll give it to you later, Eimi." Haru nodded and didn't think too much.
"Ye - Yes!" Eimi nodded happily.
"Haru, is it alright for you to let your identity be known?" Miyuki asked in doubt.
"It's alright, I plan to let everyone know about my identity during the Nine Schools Competition, and I only need one opportunity," Haru said.
"When?" Suzune asked.
"Later." Haru didn't say much, but then said, "Mayumi-senpai, don't you have something to say to everyone?"
"Yes." Mayumi quickly nodded after a moment of stupor when she knew that Haru was going to reveal his identity. She was sure that once his identity was known, there would be a lot of reporters at First High School, which was very troublesome, but she didn't think too much, considering Haru's family power, and for now, she needed to focus on the Nine Schools Competition. "This is the first time there's been such a brilliant feat of one school monopolizing the final." She smiled and said, "Miyuki-san, Kitayama-san, Akechi-san, you really did a good job."
Then the three of them bowed their heads, thanked Mayumi's praise.
"Regarding this, we got a proposal from the tournament committee members. Since the points our first high school gets will be the same even if we do matches, "how about having the three players share victory" is what the proposal says," Mayumi said. "Still, it is up to you to decide, but Haru, as the engineer of the three of them, what's your opinion?"
"Honestly, Eimi's condition isn't really good. I think it would be better for her to avoid any more exhaustion," Haru said.
Eimi quickly nodded with a tired face and said, "As Haru said, I don't mind withdrawing."
"I understand you did your best. How about you, Kitayama-san?" Mayumi asked.
Shizuku clenched her fist, moved forward slightly, looking at Mayumi, and said, "I... believe that I want to compete." She glanced at Haru lightly and saw him nodded. She then had this confident smile and believed that she could win now.
This exchange of course was noticed by everyone, which made them wonder what was happening between Haru and Shizuku.
Shizuku then looked at Miyuki and said, "I don't want to give up this chance to be able to compete seriously against Miyuki. That's it."
Mayumi nodded then looked at Miyuki. "How about you, Miyuki-san?"
Miyuki glanced at Haru slightly who gave her a smile, and it caused the corner of her mouth to twitch a bit, but then she looked at Shizuku without hesitation and said, "If that's what Kitayama-san wishes... then there's no reason for me to decline."
Mayumi looked at both Shizuku and Miyuki for a while then nodded. "I see... if you two have decided, then I'll talk to the committee about this matter."
"Thank you very much." 2x
Miyuki and Shizuku said at the same time.
Mayumi then looked at Haru and said, "Haru, can you take care of both of them?"
"Yes, you don't need to worry." Haru nodded easily, after all, he was always lenient toward a girl, especially a beautiful girl.
---
As an engineer of Shizuku and Miyuki, Haru needed to take care of their CAD, even though they would have a match to each other. He took care of Miyuki's CAD first since it only took a moment for him to do so.
"Did you plan this, Haru?" Miyuki suddenly asked.
"What do you mean?" Haru looked at Miyuki weirdly.
Looking at his expression, Miyuki's lips twitched and said, "I mean, are you the one who caused Shizuku to ask me for a duel?"
"No." Haru shook his head and said, "Shizuku is a very competitive girl, and of course, she wants to defeat you, who is known as the strongest female student among the freshman."
"Well..." Miyuki nodded and believed in Haru's words.
"But I provided her with some help since she paid me a lot of money," Haru said and gave Miyuki her CAD.
"............." Miyuki.
"Test it first so you can see that I didn't sabotage you at this event," Haru said.
Miyuki didn't think too much about Haru's joke and checked her CAD for a while, before showing a satisfied expression and nodded. "It's great!"
"Better than your brother?" Haru asked with a smile.
".........." Miyuki didn't want to admit it, but she knew that the CAD that was maintained by Haru was better than Tatsuya.
"Do you want to know why?" Haru asked.
"Why?" Miyuki asked curiously.
"It's because you're a beautiful girl. If you're a boy, I wouldn't bother to do this much tuning since it is very troublesome," Haru said with a smile.
".............." Miyuki.
"Well, just get ready, I'll prepare Shizuku's CAD now," Haru said.
Miyuki nodded and said, "I won't lose."
"Well, let's see later," Haru said with a smile.
Miyuki looked at Haru and wondered what kind of plan that he had prepared for Shizuku, which somehow made her anticipated.
---
When it was Shizuku's turn, Suzune also joined since she was curious what kind of plan Haru had prepared for Shizuku to be able to win against Miyuki.
Miyuki was without a doubt the strongest magician, among the freshman, she could match Juumonji, Mari, and even Mayumi, showing how powerful her ability was, except for Haru, she could defeat everyone.
As for Tatsuya, it was impossible for him to defeat Miyuki since she was his little sister, and without Elemental Sight, he was in a crippled condition.
"Haru, is it ready?" Shizuku asked with expectation in her eyes.
"It's ready, but it is a bit expensive," Haru said.
"Money isn't a problem," Shizuku said simply.
Haru had to admit that it was great to talk with rich people, so he took out a huge case immediately, and when it was opened, the eyes of Shizuku shone brightly, as, for Suzune, she was so speechless and lost for words.
"Do you want to use this CAD on the match later?" Suzune asked.
Shizuku and Haru nodded without hesitation, which caused Suzune to feel helpless at this moment, and thought that both of them really treated the Nine Schools Competition as their playground, but she had to admit that this year's Nine Schools Competition was really fun.
