Book 1: Chapter 5: Silent Water, Satsuki’s Text and a Fight
Volume 1 Chapter 5 Silent Water, Satsukis Text and a Fight
Im back. I opened the door and took off my shoes. Silent Water came out to greet me
Welcome back. Silent Water replied
En, Im ba I raised my head and an unprecedented visual impact stung my eyes.
Todays Silent Water was so pretty that I almost didnt recognize her. How could I describe it? It was obviously only just a change of clothes.
The Silent Water in front of me was wearing the clothes I bought her yesterday a blue dress that fit her appropriately. She pulled off the look very well and it brought out the sea-like color of her dark blue hair.
Uhmm Silent Water asked shyly as her face flushed red: Is there something on my face?
I suddenly realized that I was being rude so I scratched my head, embarrassed. Looking at the floor I told her what I had been thinking: Haha, how do I say this, Silent Water looked too pretty today so I got careless
*Bang~* I raised my head to discover that Silent Water had disappeared. White mist was drifting out from the washroom door
Oh~ yeah. I spoke too soon. I obviously was fully aware that Silent Water was an especially shy girl.
Hrm? This feeling its as if the house had been renovated as I look at the spotless floor and the sparkling walls, I felt as if I had entered the wrong house. If Silent Water wasnt here, I really would have believed that.
I crouched down and wiped the floor with my fingers. To my surprise, there was not even a speck of dust. Wasnt this too exaggerated? Could it be that Silent Water used water magic to clean the house?
I carried my bag into the kitchen and began to wash the vegetables that I plan to eat today.
After I finished washing, Silent Water finally came out but she did not dare to enter the kitchen. She sneakily looked at me as if she was a misbehaving child. It was extremely adorable.
Hehe, come over, no need to be so shy, okay? I said with a laugh.
Silent Water then slowly came over, one small step at a time.
Silent Water, what did you do today? I was interested in how Silent Water passed the time today. Being alone all day ought to be boring, right?
I watched TV, and then ate food, and then did the laundry, and then Silent Water put her index finger on her chin, recalling her activities for the day.
Really now, Silent Water is really great. Take a look around the house, you made it look as if it were brand new. I point everywhere: Thank you, Silent Water.
No~ its something I ought to do. Silent Water said as she lowered her head, extremely embarrassed.
Youre home alonewill you be bored? I asked.
N-no I wont. Arent you already home now?
I heard the loneliness in her response. Truthfully speaking, I could understand Silent Waters feelings. Wasnt I also all alone before?
If Silent Water wasnt a spirit, I would have brought her to school already. To let her the experience what its like to live like a human girl.
I stretched my hand over to rub her head. At the same time, I wondered if there were other spirits who had the appearance of a human, like Silent Water: Hey, Silent Water, there should be other spirits like you, right?
There are. My mother told me that besides us water spirits, there are wind, fire, and electric humanoid spirits.
Humanoid spirits?
Right, our composition is exactly like that of humans, except that we are spirits. My mom said that we could have possibly started out as humans, but by migrating to go live in the Demon World, our spiritual energy and soul experienced a transformation, converting us into spirits.
So it was like that. I nodded.
And? Master?
Hm? Did Silent Water have a problem? Wait, wait. Did she just call me master?
But if I think carefully about it, I feel like this wasnt that big of a surprise. I dont believe that Silent Water would deem me to be her master. She only addresses me like that because I am the master of this house, on top of the fact that shes extremely courteous. Calling me by my name would be impolite, therefore this would be the cause of her calling me master, right?
Whats wrong? I saw that Silent Water still kept her head lowered.
Your handdoes itpossess magic? This feeling being touched by you, my body numbingly gets filled with power. Silent Water quietly said.
At this moment I realized that my hand had been caressing Silent Waters head nonstop. I promptly withdrew my hand and said: Sorry, sorry, if you dont like it then its fine.
*Sigh~* I lost control of myself. Although I already consider Silent Water as family, it would seem that Silent Water doesnt consider me to be part of her family. I felt like she was a good person so I treated her like she was someone I am familiar with. When will she change and get used to me?
Since I didnt really have much of a family, I considered Takahashi as a brother and Satsuki as my little sister.
No~~~ It..itsn-nott-that I dontlike itit would be better to say, I really like it Silent Water stammered.
Is she comforting me? Ha~ Shes a really considerate girl.
Alright, lets eat. I changed the conversation
So theres wind, fire, and electric type humanoid spirits, eh? Since Silent Water already suffered an attack, the others should also have been attacked, right?
After we finished eating, Silent Water told me that she wanted to wash the dishes. I let her wash the dishes as I stood by her side. As I watched her skilled technique, I discovered that the chopsticks appeared to look brand new after being washed
I asked her why and she told me it was the waters cleansing effect.
After I took a bath, I watched some program called Spirit Analysis with Silent Water. It had already gotten this late.
After I washed my face and brushed my teeth, I laid my weary body on the bed. I turned on my cell phone to look at the time and discovered that I had a text message. It was sent by Satsuki, at 5:30? That was when I was still cooking.
This afternoon I actually wasnt mad at you, I only reacted like that because you scared me a little. Remember, Im not actually mad at you.
What is she talking about? The matter from this afternoon? Im still under the impression that I made her angry.
I replied: Understood, beloved Risa-chan. Closed my cell phone and prepared to sleep.
Not even ten seconds passed and my cell phone rang.
YouWhat are you sayingBaka, its true that Im not mad at you, butI never saidI liked you though.
Huh? As I read her reply, I couldnt make heads or tails of it. When did I say she liked me?
Silly, theres no way that Id think you like me, I already know you like Takahashi. Takahashi is handsome and strong. If you didnt like him, Id think you werent a girl, eh.
Actuallyyou arent that bad, its just that Takahashi is too outstanding thats all.
Understood, go to sleep. I replied and closed my eyes.
*Ringringring~~~Ringringring~* I had just fallen asleep when my cell phones ringtone woke me up.
I opened my eyes in a daze. Ive only slept for five minutes?
Incoming caller is Satsuki?
Whats up with this chick?
I pressed the answer button and heard the sound of Satsukis urgent voice coming from the phone.
Hey, Lin Xiang? You okay? Whyd you take so long to answer my call?
Huh? My half-asleep self couldnt hear clearly.
Why didnt you reply to my text? I already told you not to be angry. I couldnt understand Satsukis confusing words. Why would I need to be angry?
Im not angry. I tiredly replied.
Even if you say you arent, I hear your voice and know you are~~~sigh~~~ The Satsuki on the phone l seemed to be troubled.
In any case, Lin Xiang, you really arent bad, you are my only male friendnot only thatyouyoure even my best girl friend. I apologize, I shouldnt have compared you to Takahashi-kun.
What are you saying? The more I listened, the more confused I am: Do you know what time it is? Its already 11, Im very tired today. I want to sleep, beloved Risa-chan.
Babaka. Satsuki said with an flabberghasted voice and then hung up right away.
Truly incomprehensible. Honestly, whats going on with her?
No matter, Ill sleep first. At this moment, I saw that my cell phone displayed ten unread text messages, all from Satsuki. In a matter of five minutes, she already sent ten messages? Wasnt that an average of 30 seconds per message? Seriously, what is she doing?
While in a stupor, I opened the inbox and took a look. In the first part, shes telling me not to be angry. The middle portion asked me how I am and the final portion was about my good points. Yet, she couldnt list any good points and only wrote that the croquette I gave her today was good.
After I looked at it, I shook my head and anxiously said: This kid. In the future, I hope that she wont get abducted by someone just because of a croquette.
As I thought about it, another text message came and the sender was Satsuki once again.
Baka, good night.
I looked at my originally empty inbox that now had a bunch of text messages from Satsuki and wryly smiled: If youre still alive, I think you would probably die from happiness, eh.
The you that I mentioned naturally was referring to the nerdy Lin Xiang. That fellow, just a phone call from Satsuki asking a single question, was able to make him happy for an entire day. That super pure person and Satsukis phone calls only ever talked about school-related topics, apart from that, they absolutely never chatted idly nor did they ever mutually send text messages to each other.
Boy A strong and solid voice rang by my ear once again.
I opened my eyes and saw two dragons floating before my eyes, one black and one white, arrogantly looking at me in a dignified manner.
Freed, you must not look for a fight with me like yesterday, today, I must explain to him our current situation. The black dragon said.
*Hmph~~* The white dragon snorted.
*Coughcough~* The black dragon forced a cough. I felt that if his appearance wasnt that of a dragon, he would have a bit of a semblance to the people who tell stories under bridges.
Listen well, boy, we are in fact Just as the black dragon had begun to speak, the white dragon cut him short.
Go to hell, youre trying to start your bullshit introduction again, right? Cant you leave that out? Dont you know how much time it wastes?
After being interrupted by the white dragon, the black dragon angrily said: HEY!!! Freed, Weve already been dead for more than a thousand years, whats the difference if I talked a bit more? Huh? Its just one sentence: We are precisely the shockingly unrivaled, incomparably handsome, favored mounts of God from the legends: The progenitors of dragons, the dragon gods.
Thats great. Now, are you going to explain or am I going to explain? The white dragon said, still angry.
Naturally, I will. The black dragon said, matter-of-factually.
Then, he coughed once again: Listen very well, boy, in fact, we are
Go to hell, Ive clearly become too old, I actually believed you? The tail of the white dragon swung and struck the black dragons face.
After being hit, the black dragon immediately roared: You want a f*cking fight? The black dragon actually spoke some Chinese. I dont know how long its been since Ive heard someone use Chinese to swear. I felt a strong sense of nostalgia.
Absolutely. A bug like you thats trying to pass off as a dragon needs a solid beating. The white dragon roared. Their roars caused the space around me to shake violently.
What happened after that was obvious without a need for an explanation. Their fight, the contest between light and dark, was precisely just like yesterday, neck and neck.
Nonetheless, if there is light, there will naturally be shadow that is the dark. The existence of darkness displays the brightness of the light. Its precisely in this way that the existence of the opposite party was the reason for their own existence; mutual restraint, mutual control
Damn had that weird dream again. I sat up and looked at my cell phone. It was already 6. I washed my face, changed into my school uniform and felt completely awake.
After I went downstairs to eat Silent Waters delicious breakfast, I headed off to school.
As I went out, Silent Water told me to be careful on the road. That made my heart feel warm and tingly.
Was this the feeling of having a family?
Due to my habit of snoozing the alarm, today Im going to be late to class again.
Today, Yamada didnt speak to me and only looked at me as if he was angry I didnt pay attention to him and just sat in my seat.
Once Satsuki saw me, she immediately lowered her head. Im not sure whether or not she had make-up on, but she seemed to have put on some pink blush today.
Yo~ Good morning. I took my bag and put it into the drawer.
En~~~ Good morning. Satsuki replied in a soft voice.
Since I didn't have anything else to say, I no longer spoke and just looked out the window.
Ne. You werent mad last night, right? Satsuki timidly asked.
Mad? Why? I turned my head and Satsukis face that was originally facing me immediately lowered.
Becausebecause I suddenlyhung up on you Satsukis two delicate index fingers kept twirling round and around.
No way. I said with a laugh.
Suddenly, Satsuki lifted her head to look at me and then angrily said: Thats right, why would I need to apologize to you? Clearly, last night youunexpectedly addressed me as Speaking up to that point, she once again lowered her head. The face that originally already recovered its fair complexion was red once again.
Huh? I recall the events from yesterday and then suddenly realized: Oooh~~ Sorry. I had already fallen asleep. Your call woke me up in a daze.
So thats the case. Satsuki sneakily glanced at me. At this time the bell that indicated the start of class rang.
First period is Math, a class the homeroom teacher was in charge of. He saw me sleeping and called me up to solve a super hard problem. I stood up to take a look and was immediately stunned. Wasnt this a problem that you do in your 3rd year of middle school? I remember this kind of problem, I did them until I wanted to puke. Piece of cake.
Homeroom teacher saw my stunned expression and laughingly said: Lin Xiang, you cant? If you cant then Ill punish you by making you copy this book thirty times.
As Satsuki glanced at me worriedly, Yamada then said: I cant believe it, theres actually a problem this nerd cant solve? Haha, hilarious.
Homeroom teacher looked at Yamada and asked: Are you saying you can do it?
Yamada didnt answer.
So? Lin Xiang, are you able to do it? Homeroom teacher beamed at me as he constantly slapped the blackboard.
I walked over, picked the chalk and I quickly wrote the answer without even looking at the topic. It was a simple and straightforward process.
How. could this be? Thats the important topic I prepared for todays class The homeroom teacher turned to stare at me suspiciously as I turned to go back to my seat and shouted: Stop, who said you could leave? Do another one. He said and then wrote another problem of that type. It was just a bit harder than the one already on the board.
But math was just a superficial subject and not to mention, this topic was something I was something I was already familiar with. After he finished writing, I barely looked at it and once again quickly wrote out the answer. Then, I faced him and asked: I can go back now, right?
Perhaps it was because I said that rather coldly because he didnt answer and only gave me a hard look. He no longer spoke.
As I walked off the platform, I realized I didnt return the chalk that was still in my hand. Not wanting to look at his face again, I casually tossed the chalk backwards and it actually landed in the chalk box. That was pretty lucky.
Not sure if its because I just went up to solve the problem, but the class became very quiet since the students had all stopped talking. I laid down on my desk and only heard the unpleasant voice of the homeroom teacher lecturing about the topic. I ignored him and fell asleep.
After class
Satsuki said to me: I feel like youve changed.
Really? Its probably because the weather had recently gotten hotter and drier. As a result, my temper has become more and more irritable.
What are you talking about? Satsuki gently hit me with her delicate hands: Be honest, without paying attention in class you could still solve the hard problem. Do you have some technique?
Technique? Not really? Youll naturally be able to do them if you do them a lot.
Is that the truth? Weve never encountered these type of problems before.
Ehyou know, I get bored at home so I just did some exercise problems. I didnt think that he would happen to discuss that topic today.
OhSo, teach me how to do this problem on the page. Satsuki said while shifting her book over.
This question, compared to the two I just did, is a bit more difficult. You can solve the two I did earlier?
Originally when the teacher wrote out the problem, I felt a bit unsure. But, after seeing you write the answer, I realized that theyre actually simple. Satsukis face started blushing again.
Hey you, you think just because theyre simple that you dont have to them? You have to properly understand this topic and then do it yourself once. That way, you wont any issues with these types of problems in the future. I patted her head and said.
Okay~~~ Satsuki lowered her head. Surprisingly, she didnt tell me to stop touching her.
Xiang~ A charming male voice called my name.
It turned out to have come from Takahashi? No wonder.
You might have been even cooler than me just now. Takahashi said to me laughingly after taking a glance at the blushing Satsuki who had her head lowered.
Im not sure why, but as I faced Takahashi, I suddenly sensed a strange hostility from him.
Was that an illusion?
Not really, its just that I was asleep, but then suddenly got woken up. I felt dizzy, so I wasnt in a good mood. I replied in that manner.
Really? Youre really impressive. Falling asleep and still being able to solve those hard problems. Takahashi glanced at me while also taking a look at Satsuki who was following my instructions and doing a exercise problem similar to the one I did.
I was just at home bored and casually did it. Coincidentally, it showed up today. Thats all.
So its like that. Im a bit unsure about how to do them, so do you have time right now? During the next class break, you need to properly teach me. Takahashis coming here? This is a good opportunity.
Sure, Ill definitely teach you. I happily replied.
.
After second period ended, Takahashi actually came and brought along his notebook. I tap Satsukis lowered head but she remained motionless. Fine, this girls shyness wasnt something that could be fixed all at once.
After a few simple explanations from me, the clever Takahashi in that short time understood it all. As expected. I dont even know how many times I had to do them over and over again to understand these problems.
Then, the Takahashi who liked Satsuki finally went into action. He started to speak to Satsuki.
Theyve spoken before, but they dont say much.
Satsuki-san, can you do them? Takahashi said, soft and gently.
En. To my surprise, she nodded I almost fainted. Arent you supposed to say that you dont and let Takahashi teach you?
I see, Satsuki-san sure is smart. In that case, Xiang~ Ill be going. As Takahashi said that, he took his notebook and left.
Hey! What are you doing? Werent you supposed to say you that you dont undetsand and let him teach you? I patted her head.
Im shy~~~ Satsuki laid on her desk and secretly regretted it
Lunch break
Wa~~~Croquette? Satsuki said shrilly and stood up once she saw me open my bento.
Want some? I said with a laugh.
Want to eat, want to eat. Satsuki looked like a puppy when she nodded her head, immediately took out her lunchbox and opened it.
Here, all for you. I passed all the croquettes to her and her eyes lit up, never straying away from the croquettes the entire time.
Delicious theyre too delicious. Lin Xiang, tell me which store made these.
I already told you, I made them.
I dont believe it. Hmph~~ If you dont want tell me, then its fine. Satsuki stopped paying attention to me and ate her croquettes.
At this time, I saw Takahashi walk out the classroom. I originally wanted to call out to him, but he seemed to be a little mad, so in the end I didnt.
The action of me giving my croquettes to Satsuki was seen by Yamada, who stayed in class to eat his bread today. He was in an extremely bad mood and threw his half-eaten bread out as he fiercely looked at me.
After looking at each other momentarily, I stopped looking at him. If I looked at his ugly face any longer, I was afraid I wouldnt be able to hold it in and would probably beat him up.
Speaking about that, didnt he tell me to wait for him? Yesterday he didnt even go get his seven friends, what happened?
Didnt I tell you already, you have to wipe your mouth after you finish eating. I saw that Satsukis chin had a grain of white rice sticking onto it, so I stretched my hand out and took it off.
I forgot I forgot seriously theres no need to touch me so suddenly Satsuki, with a red face like yesterdays, ran out of the classroom.
I chuckled a bit and helped put away her lunchbox. Then I poured a cup of water and placed it on her desk.
Three minutes later, Satsuki returned. It seemed like she had washed her face; her pink face was moist. She sat down, saw a cup of tea on her desk, then glanced at me until she finally drank it all.
After school
Why do you always sleep in class now? Satsuki said to me.
Too tired. I replied.
Fine, today, I need to go buy a notebook. Will you come with me? Satsuki without being too excessive, gave me a beautiful look at her profile.
The beautiful Risa Satsuki-san is beckoning me, of course Ill go. The moment I said beautiful Risa, I saw that Satsukis face had started to turned red so I fixed my speech at once.
*Hmph~~~* Satsuki snorted gently and her face still turned red.
Its to talk about Takahashi, right?
En. Satsuki looked at my face as she answered.
Right now, one day has already passed so there are still three days left. You still havent even said a word to Takahashi Oi, one more thing, you only have three days left. You need to seize a good opportunity. It will only mean something if you personally confess, understand?
En.
Satsuki and I left through the schools back entrance and head towards the direction of the bookstore. The road we passed through was a rather remote and desolate place.
At that moment, I saw Yamada and his seven friends.
Whyd you stop talking? Satsuki asked.
Satsuki, it wont be a problem for you to go back a bit late, right?
What do you want to do to me? Satsuki asked as she used her backpack to block her chest, and both her face and ears turned red.
I didnt reply, and only gave her my backpack: Help me hold it. And then I walked over.
You actually came! Fearlessly, I looked at the wooden wand in Yamadas hands: Why here?
I was very confused; based on Yamadas nature, he shouldve fought with me in front of the school entrance, so that he could make the other students be afraid of him.
Youre asking me why I chose this place, right? Yamada replied, full of anger. Then, he opened his hands: While you can still talk, Ill tell you why. Right now, I need to beat you until youre crippled, so that youll understand. No one dares to oppose the Yamada!
Lin Xiang~~~ Satsuki ran up: What happened? What does Yamada-kun want to do?
You still remember how I told you yesterday that Yamada tripped and fell? I was the one who tripped him. I said as I laughed.
What? You Satsuki was extremely shocked. Then she said to me: Lin Xiang, thats not good. Why dont we apologize to them? So they can forgive you. Satsuki worriedly looked at me..
Apologize? Its possible, Satsuki-chan. You tell him to come over here to kneel down and apologize right now, and you can play with us afterwards Ill consider letting him off then Yamada laughed with extreme lewdness: Look guys, I wasnt lying, right? I told you she was extremely beautiful, right?
Truly beautiful The seven boy swallowed their saliva. The scared Satsuki hid behind me.
Lin Xiang~~~ What do we do now? Ill go find people to help us. Satsuki said as she planned to run somewhere with more people.
Then, one of the boys used magic. A single glass-like see-through shroud surrounded us. I knew that this was called Isolation Shroud, this type of shroud can isolate the inside from any attack coming from outside of the shroud. Unless assaulted by a powerful magic attack, it would not break.
The chubby boy that released the shroud said: I cant let you leave, miss~~
Oh right, I forgot. They use magic, dammit. I underestimated them. If they didnt have magic, would I even be afraid of these morons?
Release Satsuki. Dammit, I have to give up my sure-win plan. As much as possible, I need Satsuki to leave this area.
Why should I need to listen to the words of a future cripple? Another boy asked.
Didnt you guys want to beat me until Im crippled? Satsuki is at eighth rank in our entire grade, a level 5 Junior Magician. With her here, can you really beat me and come out unharmed?
Lin Xiang~~ What exactly are you trying to do? Satsuki heavily hit me
I didnt answer Satsuki, but instead spoke to Yamada: Yamada, you know how strong Satsuki is.
Yamada thought about it and then said to the boy who released the shroud: Sekisawa-nii, hes right, that girl shouldnt be provoked. Let her go.
What do we do if we let her run away?
Letting her run away isnt a big deal. I have money Yamada and the shroud releasing boy looked at one another and obscenely laughed together. The shroud releasing boy created a hole in the shroud: Brat. Im warning you, dont you dare leave.
Satsuki, go out now. I said to Satsuki.
What are you talking about? Lin Xiang? Are you crazy? Satsuki looked at me with concern, with no intention of leaving.
As soon as you get out, run away at once.
Not leaving, not leaving. Im not leaving.
Listen to me, go out, okay? I rubbed Satsukis head.
Wh.. why? Satsukis gem-like sparkling tears flowed out.
Because I need to protect you. I dont want to let you to get hurt. After saying that, I pushed the dumbstruck Satsuki out and then the shroud releasing boy quickly sealed the shroud.
Satsuki threw down her backpack and started beating the Isolation Shroud: Lin Xiang, hurry up and come out, you could actually die.
I didnt answer Satsuki and instead focused my attention on the figures of Yamada and the others.
Truthfully speaking, I felt breathed in a sigh of relief after seeing Satsuki go out. These blind idiots should know that students like us, who knew how to use magic, needed their wands to cast spells. Since a magic wand was typically put in the schools locker, who would actually bring it home with them?
You have quite a bit of courage, brat. At that time, two boys came out: You guys stay back, let us go and beat him crippled first.
Ichikun-nii, Ichimin-nii, no need, everyone go together. I didnt realize this before but this guy can actually fight. Yamada worriedly advised.
Youre worried that well lose? The one called Ichikun glared at Yamada ruthlessly.
No, no, no, you two brothers are undefeatable if you guys fight together. Yamadas concerned face was already gone.
Another person also said: Ahhh, I came here for no reason. You guys hurry up and end this so I can eat dinner early. Grand daddy here wants to go pick up some girls.
There was no one in the area, just the sound of Satsukis crying echoed in the remote alley.
These two guys in front of me seemed to have underestimated me, so it seemed like they dont plan on using magic. Then itd be for the best if I was a bit more ruthless this time. If I can beat them down first then Id have two less people to deal with.
That guy Yamada probably doesnt have any fighting capacity. He didnt bring a sword along, so if I rule him out, I only actually have five opponents.
Aniki, use Rio Battle Method to beat him down in one go? Ichimin proposed.
Hm~~~ Not a bad idea, we shouldnt waste too much energy on this kind of trash. Ichikun nodded.
Ichikun charged in front of me and at the same time he swung his fist at me. His leg didnt remain idle when I caught his fist and used his knee to strike my belly. I dodged it but discovered that the one called Ichimen already ran up beside me. His fist directly struck my face and immediately, I fell to the ground.
Satsuki was there crying: Who will come~~ who will come help him?
Satsuki was pounding the Isolation Shroud.
Aniki sure enough, this brat has few moves. His reaction speeds pretty fast.
Thats true, but right now he cant even get up anymore.
I shook my head and quickly got back up.
Those two guys, did they concentrate spiritual energy into their fists?
Originally, I had no chance of winning, but right now my odds of success were extremely good.
I recalled now that this worlds boxing match and what not, all relied on concentrating spiritual energy in order to fight. So long as one person gets knocked out by spiritual energy, the attacker is considered the victor. They dont pay attention to which spot is the most effective to hit. Since thats the case
What? He actually stood back up?
I took advantage of the time they spent being shocked and charged over. My fist struck the one called Ichikun in the chin and followed it up with a spin kick at the one named Ichimen. He got sent flying into the air for quite a distance.
Even though I sent them flying, I didnt remain idle. The one called Ichikun got hit in the chin with a fourth of my strength; it was enough power to knock him out.
Although the one the called Ichimen received a kick from me that contained more power than the punch, he didnt necessarily faint. I promptly ran up, grabbed his collar and landed a punch on his chin
In this manner, there were just five remaining.
Hows that possible? Hows this possible? The six people who were originally watching were all scared silly.
What a good opportunity. I called them idiots and they really were idiots. How do you have time to be shocked in the middle of a fight?
With a kick, I sent Yamada flying and the four magicians who were scared into chanting their spells at once got beaten down after I quickly adopted chin attacks.
Finished four off, and now there was only one left
Brat No Bro, please, please dont hit me. I can only use the Isolation Shroud, I dont have any other spells. So, since you are a great and magnanimous person, forgive me? The shroud releasing boy threw his magic wand on the ground and raised his hands in the air as he surrendered.
And if I dont forgive you? This damned fatass. Although he said he that he surrenders, his entire face said that he was unwilling.
ThThen you wont be able to leave my Iso Before he even finished speaking, I knocked him out.
You think Im stupid? Even though the nerd Lin Xiang cant use magic, he could still remember the special properties of most spells. Isolation Shroud, as long as you knock out the caster, it will naturally dissipate.
After fatty fell, the Isolation Shroud broke down.
I breathed a sigh of relief. I didnt get arrogant because the reason I won was due to the fact that they underestimated me too much and also because they were way too surprised.
If it were only two from very the start that fought me, then perhaps I could win. But, dealing with magicians who use magic was akin to me bringing out a knife while the other person brings out a semi-automatic pistol during a war. Although semi-automatic pistols needed time to load, if theres a lot of people together, they could no doubt combine together to be like a small submachine gun.
Everything happened in a split second. Satsuki stared at me with a dumbfounded expression as glittering teardrops streamed down her face.
I walked in front of her, lightly touched her, and said: Cnon. Lets go buy your notebook.
Satsuki stood there, gazed at me for a moment and used her delicate finger to poke me: Are you really Lin Xiang?
Absolutely. I lifted up my backpack and patted her shoulder: Lets go, we were already held up for ten minutes.
Satsuki looked at the seven who were on the ground who were silent and unconscious, and said: They wont die, right?
They wont, they just fainted, thats all. I walked over to the groaning Yamada, and then laughingly said: Yamada-kun, sorry, you couldnt cripple me.
Satsuki patted off the dust on her body and Yamada Yukihito roared as we left.
Why arent you saying anything? Didnt you say you needed to buy a notebook? Youre still not going in? I brought Satsuki to the stationery store, but discovered that she only kept staring at me and didnt say that she was going in.
Youre really Lin Xiang? Satsuki asked me.
Yes, my little princess. As I said that, I stretched my hand over and wiped the tear stains off her gloomy face.
Satsukis face quickly became red. She knocked my hand away: Ill wipe it myself. She said, as she wiped her eyes that become red from crying.
Nerd Lin Xiang~ Satsuki cried for you, she really treats you like a friend. Are you happy?
When did you become so able to fight? After wiping her enchanting eyes that were red from crying, Satsuki looked at me and asked.
Alright, the truth is that I practice boxing at home. In my original world, if I couldnt fight, wouldnt I have died a long ago?
Really? Satsuki opened her eyes wide, with a face full of disbelief.
Why would I lie to you? Didnt you see me knock them out in one move? Thats the result of my training.
It certainly did look like that. Satsukis face looked like she was recalling the events from that time.
Since theres an opportunity right now, Ill just tell you. As long as you use a certain amount of spiritual energy and hit someones chin, the force of impact on the chin will shake the brain. This will create a moment of dizziness or unconsciousness. Naturally, dont use too much force as too much force would cause brain concussion.

Lin Xiang, how did you know that I live here? Satsuki was not against me sending her home today.
You know that big supermarket near your home? I frequently go there to buy my groceries. I saw you around here once, so thats why I knew. The Satsuki in this world and the Satsuki in the other world had different types of family too. In this world, Satsukis family seemed to be rich and pretty well off, since I saw that they own a huge house.
Oh so thats it. As you send me home, you could also buy groceries on the way?
Yeah. So Im going to go now.. I said as I started to turn around.
Lin Xiang
What? I turned my head back and see Satsuki looking at me with a small red face. Then she shook her head: Nothing. She ran back into her home.
How strange As I left Satsukis house, I went to the supermarket to buy groceries.
