6 Exposed

The school is so lively, There are many visitors mixed with the students, they are the parents of the freshmen.

Some of them are weeds, their heads down, influenced by the stare of superiority coming from the blooms.

But not all of them had an inferiority complex. Among the weeds, there were some of them that walk with their backs straight and parents at their side. They are proud of getting accepted into top magic institutions for elite students.

In the midst of these students, two men and two women could be seen having animated conversations.

"Shiba-kun, which class are you in?" Erika asked, rather excited.

"Class E," Tatsuya said. His tone is flat as always.

"Yay!" Erika smiled happily, "We are in the same class."

Mizuki also had a smile on her face, "I am in the same class as well." but disappointment could be seen in her gaze. "Leon-kun, what about you?"

"I'm in class A," Leon said. As if noticing Mizuki disappointment, an encouraging smile formed around his mouth, "Even if we are in a different class, we can still hang out sometimes."

"Ah... right." Mizuki's cheeks turned pink, somewhat surprised that Leon able to read her mind.

The blush on Mizuki face seems very alluring to Leon, so he can't help but having a wild thought, 'This chick is not seducing me, right?' Leon pondered for a moment before wiping the thought away from his mind.

Mizuki is a shy person that blushes from someone's stare so it's normal for her to blush, but Leon can't help but feels that something is different about this one. Alas, he can't seem to put his finger on it.

It was Erika who breaks the pink ambience, "Let's ignore these couple, Shiba-kun, what shall we do? Shall we take a look at our homeroom?" Erika asked as she looked up at the face of Tatsuya, while Mizuki was looking up at Leon, thinking that this will be the time for them to go their separate ways.

The first high school has twenty-five students in a class and weeds were placed in classes E to H while blooms were placed in classes A to D and they were located on different floors. So, it's impossible for Leon to be in the same class as Mizuki, Erika, and Tatsuya.

"Sorry. I had to go home with my little sister." So he rejected Erika invitation. For Tatsuya, his sister is his top priority.

"Hah, this siscon..." Leon couldn't help but sigh.

"Siscon?!" Erika laughed and then exclaimed, "Shiba-kun, you have sister complex?"

Tatsuya was troubled as to how he should answer this seemingly difficult question. It was Leon fault for saying such unnecessary things, if other people heard, it could cause a misunderstanding. He was by no means had a sister complex, at least he thinks so.

Fortunately, he didn't need to answer Erika's playful question.

"Shiba-kun, could your little sister be Shiba Miyuki?" Mizuki asked.

Before Tatsuya had a chance to answer the question, someone had already beat him to it, "Indeed, you are right," Leon said, "Tatsuya little sister is the representative of the freshmen, Shiba Miyuki."

"Really? Are you twins, Shiba-kun?" Erika asked, rather surprised. Sibling in the same year, this is what lead her to this conclusion.

"No, we are not twins. I was born in April and she was born in March."

"I see... I guess that makes things complicated..." Erika let out a wry smile.

A bloom little sister and a weed big brother in the same school year, it was bound to make things complicated. Not to mention the fact that Miyuki is the representative of freshmen in a school filled with discrimination. There are bound to be troubling matters. At least Leon knows that the trouble will be easily suppressed by Tatsuya, so he didn't take it seriously.

Leon is more interested in Mizuki ability to see the aura in people, "Mizuki, did you know they are siblings from their aura?"

Mizuki seems very surprised that she can only nod in return. She had no idea that Leon knew this from his previous life memories so there's no guess or even insight involved.

Tatsuya didn't say anything, but his frown seems to get even scarier than before. He is worried that Mizuki will be able to find out his secret with her eyes, though her lack of control makes it seems unlikely. Meanwhile, Leon seems to be lost in contemplation.

The Aura Cut Lenses is aiding her oversensitive eyes by preventing Mizuki to see the magical phenomenon. So, there's only one reason for Mizuki to see their aura.

"Mizuki, did you take off your glasses to look at their aura?" Leon raised his eyebrow.

"No, even with my glasses on, I could somewhat recognize their similar aura, it was intense," Mizuki replied, there is a little hint of pride in her voice.

This Mizuki is already different from the one in the show, she didn't show any negative reaction when someone mentioned her eyes. Her conversations with Leon might be what changed her for the better.

Still, It was a surprise to him, Leon never would have thought that Mizuki still could see something even with her glasses on.

"Your eyes must be more sensitive than I thought, it's amazing Mizuki." Leon smiled, "You should use your eyes daily so you will get accustomed to them."

"... Okay. Do you think I could do it? Control my eyes?" Mizuki asked, rather hopeful.

"Of course, it's just a matter of effort," Leon put an encouragement in his voice. "I will also help you with it, so don't worry too much." This seems to put Mizuki in a good mood.

Leon exchange with Mizuki attracted the nearby redhead.

"So Mizuki eyes are special, huh?" Erika said, rather intrigued, "Leon-kun, is this what are you talking about in the auditorium?"

"Eh, you heard it?"

"Of course. Do you think I'm deaf?" Erika pouted.

"Nah, I just think it's not your style," Leon said, "To think Erika didn't say anything stupid."

"You were so into Mizuki that time, so..." Erika's pout faded, it turned into teasing smirk, "I managed to convince myself not to ruin the mood."

"Uh huh, good for you," Leon replied in a deadpan voice. This seems to trigger something in Erika and both of them starting to squabble with each other.

Looking at them, a sigh escapes from Tatsuya lips, while envy could be seen from Mizuki's face.

Halfway through his squabbles with Erica, Leon seems to remember something important. He can't recall any of this anime's events that will happen in the future. He knows something big will take place in the competition, and there is also some kind of invasion if he remembers right, but that's about it, everything is somewhat vague.

Leon wonders if it's his memories fault or there is something fishy with the system, but he quickly denied this notion. After Leon acquired his Magekyou Sharingan from the system, he seems to gain an extraordinary memory.

When he walked on the street trying to find the first high school using his mobile terminal, he spotted a woman with a fat white cat in her embrace. Due to its ugly form, Leon only takes a single glance at the fat cat, but now he can still remember clearly how many whiskers on its face.

This must be the reason why Kakashi is known as the copy ninja.

Leon had a ridiculous clarity of perception provided by Mangekyou, so just like Kakashi, Leon might be able to copy almost any martial arts he sees with near perfect accuracy.

He had no experience in martial arts, so it's impossible for him to fight against someone in close combat, especially those who practice martial arts. Tatsuya is unmatched in close combat and able to defeat many magicians with his martial arts alone, but now with Sharingan's abilities, Leon had a chance to be better than him in close combat.

His musing was broken by a silvery voice and Leon can feel that his lifelong bachelor's sense is tingling.

"Onii-sama, sorry for the wait."

Listening to Miyuki's voice almost made Leon shudder. This is the first time he felt something like this, 'Weird...' Leon muttered under his breath, he turned his attention to the beauty walking towards him.

"You were quick," Tatsuya said, rather surprised. She was a little early than he expected.

Instead of Miyuki, someone else answered Tatsuya, her voice is familiar to Leon, "Hello, you must be Shiba-kun, the big brother of Miyuki. Nice to meet you." Mayumi let out a smile.

"...My name is Shiba Tatsuya. Nice to meet you too."

The one who appeared beside Miyuki is the Student Council President of the First High School, Saegusa Mayumi. She is the daughter of the head of the Saegusa Family, one of the two most influential families among the Ten Master Clans.

This is the first time Leon meet with her in real life, it was also the same for Tatsuya. Unlike the show, Mayumi didn't approach Tatsuya. Maybe the timing is not right or they missed each other because of Leon's actions. Either way, the interference from Leon seems to change the plot of the show. He doesn't know if this is a good thing or not.

Leon saw the exchange between Tatsuya and Mayumi but didn't say anything. Leon finds it hard to introduce himself to Mayumi. Maybe it was the mood or it might be the atmosphere, he had no idea. But the moment Leon saw a man with a frown behind Mayumi, he receives sudden enlightenment.

It was this dude fault!

Leon dislike of this man seems to increase, but he paid him no more attention and turned his gaze towards the woman with a silvery voice.

"Onii-sama, they are..." Intrigued, Miyuki's gaze shifted to the two women and a man beside her big brother. Though the women seem annoying in her eyes, Miyuki feels somewhat happy that Tatsuya finally had a male friend in school, they seemed to be having a good time.

"This is Shibata Mizuki-san and Chiba Erika-san, we're in the same class. As for him..."

"I'm Leon Walker, Tatsuya's best friend. Nice to meet you, Miyuki." Before Tatsuya could finish his words, Leon introduced himself to Miyuki. The sight of a beautiful and elegant woman in front of him made the blood in Leon's vein pumping.

He was so eager that he didn't realize someone is running towards him. It was a man and he seems to be in a hurry, so he didn't pay any attention to his surroundings. Leon's sudden movement startled the running man and it led to an unfortunate incident.

The man crashed into Leon!

The force caused by the impact of their clash made Leon stumbled towards Mayumi who was standing beside Miyuki. Their distance is too close with each other so there is not enough time for Leon to do anything.

Under the shocked gaze of the crowd, Leon crashed into the student council president but contrary to their common sense, Leon passed through Mayumi as if it was just an illusion.

Leon never would have thought that his first meeting with Miyuki and Mayumi will end up like this, even his Mangekyou's ability is exposed to the whole school. This made him speechless.

It used to be a very lively place with many students hanging around, but now the place was quiet as the grave. Everyone is looking at the black-haired young man, their eyes wide. They seem to be confused and in disbelief, especially Mayumi who was supposed to crash against him.

She is surprised by this turn of event, Mayumi opened her mouth but no words come out from her lips. She could only gaze at his eyes in astonishment, It was the most fascinating eyes she ever saw.

Everyone seems to be looking at Leon as though expecting an answer.

As if noticing the crowd expectation, Mayumi raised her right hand towards Leon's chest, but nothing happened.

Mayumi finds her right-hand rested against his toned chest.

Leon blinked, "... I guess you caught me."
