Seeing Chiba Yeyou toss her CAD file over from afar, Mayumi Saegusa was startled and quickly reached out to catch it.
Be careful!
Chiba Yeyou rolled her eyes at Mayumi Saegusa, annoyed. This guy really didn't care about the value of this thing!
And CAD is indeed really expensive!
What if it breaks?
"Don't worry, the CAD's materials are quite good; it's impossible for it to be damaged so easily. Your worries are unnecessary."
Mayumi Saegusa Chiba Yeyou n't mind Nanagusa Mayumi pouting and pretending to be angry; instead, she looked towards the arena.
Wishing you a resounding victory, my guild leader!
Mayumi Saegusa winked at Chiba Yeyou.
"Puff!"
Thank you!
Mayumi Saegusa Chiba Yeyou's funny appearance. The slight nervousness that had been mixed with anticipation because of Mari Watanabe's words quietly dissipated, and Mayumi Saegusa regained the confidence that belonged to the student council president, or rather, she became even more confident!
Mayumi Saegusa waved the CAD in her hand, then went to prepare to enter the competition venue.
Meanwhile, in the stands on one side of the arena, Tatsuya Shiba was looking in their direction. As if sensing something, Chiba Yeyou turned around and looked right at Tatsuya Shiba. Their eyes met in mid-air.
One hour ago.
"Knock knock knock!"
" Major Kazama, the guests have arrived."
Come in!
A young man in a white navy uniform knocked on a door and entered with Tatsuya Shiba behind him.
"Excuse me!"
After Tatsuya Shiba entered the room, he saw a group of people sitting at the table, and finally fixed his gaze on Harunobu Kazama, where he greeted him.
Then, Tatsuya Shiba immediately stood up straight, adopting a standard straddle stance, and stood at the doorway.
"You've come!"
"But don't be so formal."
Seeing Tatsuya Shiba's very formal attitude, Major Kazama immediately softened his tone, after all, this was not a combat mission issued by the military.
" Tatsuya- kun, we didn't call you out today as a strategic-level mage to fight the Black Dragon."
"It was invited by our friend, Tatsuya Shiba."
"Too much worry will only cause us trouble."
Wearing brown clothes and with brown hair, Shigeru Sanada looked at the Tatsuya Ooguro in front of him with a wry smile. He felt a bit of a headache. It was indeed good to have this kind of person as a teammate. He was very reliable. But it was very troublesome that he always maintained such a posture.
There was a certain distance between them.
However, he also knew Tatsuya Shiba very well, so he naturally prescribed the right remedy.
"Captain Sanada."
As expected, upon hearing Shigeru Sanada's words, Tatsuya Shiba's serious demeanor immediately eased somewhat.
He then stopped maintaining the straddle stance, letting his arms hang freely at his sides, appearing more relaxed.
"I understand, then I won't stand on ceremony."
Tatsuya Shiba bowed to everyone present, then walked to an empty chair, pulled it out, and sat down.
"Although using a teacup isn't quite proper, let's have a drink anyway."
A woman placed a cup of black tea on a small tray in front of Tatsuya Shiba.
The woman had black hair, and even her light yellow top couldn't hide her two prominent breasts. Her features were very delicate, and her black eyes were very bright. She exuded a very capable aura.
This person is Harunobu Kazama's adjutant, Tatsuya Shiba's mentor in hacking, and the granddaughter of Kyoko Fujibayashi, known as the " Electron Sorceress," Lieutenant Fujibayashi Retsu Kudou.
Tatsuya Shiba gave a soft thank you, then looked at Harunobu Kazama. He didn't believe the major had nothing to ask him for.
"About what happened last night..."
Harunobu Kazama picked up his teacup and took a sip, as if to moisten his throat, before continuing his speech.
"The perpetrators' identities have been confirmed; they are now identified as members of the previously mentioned No Head Dragon."
Harunobu Kazama stopped speaking at this point.
"Is their goal really Nine Schools Competition?"
Tatsuya Shiba frowned as he pondered.
"The investigation is still ongoing. We'll let you know when we have the results."
Please.
Tatsuya Shiba looked very serious.
"But speaking of which, you really are lucky to have stumbled upon this..."
Kyoko Fujibayashi was unsure whether to call Tatsuya Shiba lucky or unlucky.
"So, you were already on guard before that?"
Kyoko Fujibayashi thought of Tatsuya Shiba's cautious nature and couldn't help but speculate.
"No, not at all. I just happened to notice something unusual while taking a walk."
Tatsuya Shiba looked at Kyoko Fujibayashi and explained.
"Taking a walk so late?"
Tatsuya Shiba Kyoko Fujibayashi a somewhat suspicious gaze.
"Because we need to adjust the CAD software used in the competition."
Tatsuya Shiba only offered this reason, which didn't really convince Kyoko Fujibayashi.
The walk was real, and the vigilance was perhaps not unfounded either.
Kyoko Fujibayashi.
Do your teammates know you're Silver?
Upon hearing Tatsuya Shiba mention adjusting the CAD, a square-faced, short-haired man looked at Tatsuya Shiba with a serious expression.
"No, Yamanaka, that's still a secret for now."
Tatsuya Shiba could understand the question posed by Army Doctor Yukinori Yamanaka.
"Not playing as a player?"
"If we used ' Flash Cast, ' we should be able to get pretty good results, right?"
"Leaving aside the extraordinary magic of ' Mass Explosion,' you also have ' Material Burst ' to use, right?"
Kyoko Fujibayashi asked, somewhat puzzled.
"The destructive power of 'Dissipating Material Burst and Mist,' which Decomposition matter to the molecular level, is comparable to that of an A-rank magic. It cannot be used in the Nine Schools Competition."
While explaining the rules of the Nine Schools Competition, Shigeru Sanada also introduced the rules, stating that magic with a destructive power of A-rank was not allowed.
"Oh?"
"Captain Sanada, don't you know?"
"The restrictions in the Nine Schools Competition are rules designed for events that might affect people, but there are no such rules for events that do not affect people, such as Speed Shooting and Icicle Destruction."
Kyoko Fujibayashi, not to be outdone, explained the rules of the Nine Schools Competition.
"In any case, magic, being a designated military secret, cannot be used in a match watched by a large audience."
" Tatsuya."
"I understand, Major Kazama."
Tatsuya Shiba didn't find anything wrong with what Major Kazama said; its existence was inherently meant to be hidden in the shadows.
"Alright, let's move on to the next topic!"
"Next topic?"
Tatsuya Shiba looked at Harunobu Kazama with a puzzled expression.
Upon hearing this, Kyoko Fujibayashi became much more serious, showing a look of great interest.
For example, your friend, Chiba Yeyou!
