Compendium of Anime, Creating the Delta of Fate at the Start, Group Members Are Having a Blast

"No!!!"

From not far away, a woman's wail could be heard.

"Ah..."

Souichirou Kuzuki clenched his fist and turned around, looking at the young man's somewhat immature face, his tightly pressed lips, and the blood, dirt, and dust on his body.

His gaze shifted slightly.

The iron fist that was originally aimed at Hachiman Hikigaya transformed into a palm mid-swing, and finally gently patted his shoulder.

"Cough, cough..."

Blood spilled from Souichirou Kuzuki's lips, and his dark eyes held no hatred, calm as a deep pool in an ancient well:

"You are... much more suited to being an assassin than I am."

"Cough, cough... Is there... anything... you cherish?"

Hachiman Hikigaya lowered his head and slowly drew out his sword, his hands stained with blood along with the holy sword:

"—Yes."

In the final moments of his life, Souichirou Kuzuki, the assassin who gave up halfway, the Master who was not a Master, now returned to his original duty, admonishing like a strict and responsible teacher.

"Good, then... Never let go. If... you have nothing to cherish, cough, cough, a person will... get lost."

After saying the last word, Souichirou Kuzuki's eyes lost their vitality, his body lost all support, and he knelt on the ground. Before he completely fell, he turned into blue light particles... flying towards Medea, but dissipated completely in the middle, as if he had never been there.

Only the loot and a box visible to the player remained.

"..."

Hachiman Hikigaya was slightly stunned. For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity, a bit like his own older, single female teacher.

[Operator Hachiman Hikigaya - Killed - Master Souichirou Kuzuki]
[Hint: Servant "Medea" has lost her Master. Given her condition, she will automatically die in three minutes.]

He glanced at the prompt and shook his head. It was just a very realistic game.

Hachiman Hikigaya reached down and pulled his mangled leg out of the ground, using rapid healing.

At the same time, he made a gesture to Kazuma Satou.

"She'll die in three minutes. Find a way to hold out for now."

"There's even this setting? That makes things convenient, OK!"

Kazuma Satou looked back and rejoined Shido Itsuka and Mahiro Oyama.

He said to Mahiro Oyama:

"Use your Dao Tian Command Spell to strengthen my Concealment Command Spell, and we'll go into hiding for a while."

Mahiro Oyama nodded. She had been helped by Kazuma using a Dao Tian Command Spell, so it was her turn to use it:

"In the name of the Command Spell, strengthen the Concealment Command Spell effect of my companion!"

"In the name of the Command Spell, conceal the traces of myself and my companions around me!"

The three of them disappeared from sight. Thanks to the strengthening of the Dao Tian Command Spell, their presence became almost undetectable.

As for Hachiman Hikigaya, he had already slipped away unnoticed when Kazuma Satou looked back for his teammates.

"Ahhhhhhh!!"

Medea vented her fury, plowing through the entire campus once again. She narrowly missed Kazuma Satou and the others several times, but never hit them directly.

Finally, she staggered towards the school building, arriving at the spot where Souichirou Kuzuki had died. Closing her eyes, she too turned into scattered spirit particles and slowly dissipated.

"In the end, was it all just a fleeting dream..."

A faint voice echoed through the scorched campus, growing louder and then softer, until it could no longer be heard.

After waiting for a moment, the hidden group gradually reappeared.

Mahiro Oyama raised her small hand and touched a lock of her ahoge that had been scorched by the final wave of magical lasers, puckering her lips and blowing upwards:

"Tsk, I was actually feeling a little guilty about that."

"You are... the one who should feel the most guilt,"

Hachiman Hikigaya, who had been holding back all the way, finally couldn't resist complaining:

"You seduced someone else's husband and then played S&M. You've drawn so much hatred, it's greatly increased the difficulty of the strategy."

"If we were fighting normally, we probably would have been wiped out already."

"And you guys are playing like absolute psychos..."

"Seriously, I'm not saying this to brag, but if my buddy Kazuma Satou wasn't here, I really wouldn't want to save you two."

Hachiman Hikigaya's words made Shido Itsuka and Mahiro Oyama want to disappear into the ground.

"Bro, I get what you mean."

Kazuma Satou patted Hachiman Hikigaya's shoulder, agreeing with him and trying to calm him down.

"If you push someone to their limit, wouldn't the difficulty naturally increase?"

As the adrenaline from their fight subsided, Shido Itsuka and Mahiro Oyama recalled the events that had transpired. They wiggled their toes inside their shoes, still wishing they could die.

Kazuma Satou stepped forward. "Alright, let's loot the Boss's stuff and split it up. We'll watch."

"I don't want anything."

"Me neither,"

Shido Itsuka and Mahiro Oyama said awkwardly.

Kazuma Satou looked at Hachiman Hikigaya.

"What do you say?"

"Let's open them first. We'll split them when we're about to extract. Everyone will definitely get something then."

"OK, but let us two open them, hehehe."

"Hehehe."

Kazuma Satou and Hachiman Hikigaya rubbed their hands together with a chuckle. Shido Itsuka and Mahiro Oyama naturally had no objections.

Hoo hoo hoo hoo!

The long-awaited joyful looting session.

Kazuma Satou tilted his head and suggested, "Why don't we go wash our hands first?"

Hachiman Hikigaya's eyes lit up.

"Sure! Gogogo!"

The two went to the disastrously damaged school building and found a relatively intact washbasin. After washing their hands, They came out and opened the boxes simultaneously.

Shido Itsuka and Mahiro Oyama curiously gathered around.

Hachiman Hikigaya opened Souichirou Kuzuki's box.

He quickly scanned the quantity.

One, two, three, four... seven, eight?

A total of eight items?

This is... way too generous?!

Hachiman Hikigaya's last shred of lingering complex emotion completely vanished.

Damn you, Kuzuki, so generous!

Hehe, I'll definitely farm you again if I get the chance!

[A-Xiu: "It's finally over. I suddenly feel a bit emotional."]

[Gokou Ruri: "I don't know why, but even though there were so many things to complain about, I still feel a little touched now that it's over?"]

[Kirito: "This is the charm of games."]

[Umari Tsuchima: "This game is so fun, I want to play."]

[Kanna: "Want to play."]

[Sora: "Want to play daily +1"]

[Sora: "But honestly, that last team fight was actually pretty brilliant. Several waves in the middle were well-executed, especially the last one."]

[Sora: "Overall, even though Kazuma Satou didn't deal much actual damage in the recent battle, if I had to give him a score out of 10, I'd still give him a 10."]

[Tet: "Surviving Souichirou Kuzuki alone, single-handedly infiltrating to replace the Beguiler's Noble Phantasm, designing the most concise and effective pre-battle strategy, providing infinite crowd control support during the battle, and breaking deadlocks multiple times."]

[Tet: "The final plan even tricked teammates and enemies, coordinating with the true trump card, Hachiman Hikigaya."]

[Kurapika: "This is already top-tier on-the-spot tactical response. Especially the overall grasp of the battlefield is definitely perfect-score level."]

[Kabul: "Top-tier team awareness, top-tier ranger talent, top-tier scepter (command) talent. If someone like this were to tackle the underground labyrinth, they would probably reach the lowest level very quickly."]

[Kilchak: "Hachiman was also crucial. There were opportunities multiple times before, but he was able to hold back and wait for the most perfect moment, finally coming out with a decisive blow. The synergy between the two was indeed excellent, and their coordination and awareness were also top-tier."]

[Kabul: "That last sword strike, when he came down from upstairs, he had already lost half his health... I can only say that he didn't let down Kazuma Satou's expectations of him, and he was indeed worthy of his teammates' trust."]

[Sora: "Hachiman also gets three points, but it's the three points from the latter half of the ten, the decisive three points."]

[Sora: "As for Shido Itsuka and Mahiro Oyama, one point each. They listened to commands and cooperated on the battlefield."]

Aizen: "If they were on my side, I'd definitely have them join the Espada. Or at least the first two."

Gokou Ruri: "Speaking of which, doesn't this add up to 15 points? The maximum was supposed to be 10."

Tet: "Because this was an enemy they couldn't possibly defeat. If this were a test, they gave an unexpected answer, so it's super-full marks! (Applause)"

Sora: "That's right."

Mahiro Oyama: "Ho ho ho, there's still one point to be gained here."

Sora: "I'm talking about their performance after the battle within the battlefield. Looking at the entire game, you guys are in the negatives, and quite a bit in the negatives at that."

Shido Itsuka: "Waaah, don't say it, it hurts."

Mahiro Oyama: "Who knew they'd assign this, with mental side effects too."

Char Aznable: "Confirming combat readiness or unit performance before battle is the most basic of basics. If they had used it at the start, then quickly deactivated it while their minds were still normal, I wouldn't have been fooled by you... Cough, cough, forget it, consider me silent."

Amuro Ray: "What a disgrace!"

Tenju Yoha: "...So happy and free. Is this Earth with true gravity?"

Tet: "Hahahaha, yes, it's very happy and free. That's the highest praise for a game."

Tet: "I really want to... exchange experiences with the producer of this game!"

Tet: "In any case, I super want to play!"
