3 School Entrance Ceremony

The First High School is Magic Institution where only elites are accepted to nurture an excellent Magician or Magic Technicians. In this world, Magic has become a technology of reality.

It became possible to reproduce supernatural power through Magic by using the Casting Assistant Device or CAD, it helps accelerate the invocation of magic, as well as provide stability.

There are many shapes or forms of CAD such as bracelets, mobile terminal, ornaments, or even gun-shaped CAD. Leon also had a mobile terminal, alas it's not a CAD, just ordinary mobile terminal. So he had to find someone to help him design a CAD or go without one.

CAD is able to replace tools such as talisman, spell chants, hand seals, magic circles, and other traditional methods of invoking magic.

It is a crucial tool for every modern Magic Technician and only those who used Ancient Magic doesn't need CAD. Leon's Magekyou ability can also be considered as Ancient Magic, it's the same with Kamui as space-time Ninjutsu.

Just like its name, Ancient Magic is developed before Modern Magic, it's capable of many different things, most of it is specialized beyond the capabilities of Modern Magic. Ancient Magic user does not use Casting Assistant Device (CAD) and instead use hand seals, talismans and other means.

Those who Inherit Ancient magics also tend to hide their abilities. Either because it's too powerful or because it's useless and weak, so they hide their abilities to prevent any bullying or embarrassment.

There is six famous Ancient Magic, it's unfortunate that Leon only remembers two of them, and that is Spirit Magic and Ninjutsu.

At the Cafe of First High, a handsome youth with black eyes and hair could be seen looked left and right searching for a place to fill his belly. Leon is very excited that he ended up arrived too early, he even forgets to have breakfast.

So by referring to the campus map displayed on his mobile terminal, his first destination is the open cafe! Too bad the cafe is closed today due to the school entrance ceremony to avoid a disturbance.

So he had no choice but to endure the hunger and focus on the early morning sun. The light was warm on his back, and it feels good.

Having no other things to do, Leon walked along a path paved with a layer of bricks, trying to enjoy the scenery.

The various size of buildings joined with the main building to cover the landscape, providing additional space and accommodations, it also makes the design of First High School appear more like the campus of a suburban university rather than a typical high school.

Leon froze on the spot when a conversation between freshmen reached his ears.

"So when we will get the ID card?"

"Maybe tomorrow?"

"Hey! you both are a failure as students. How could you forget that the ID card is only given out after the school entrance ceremony ended? Ah... I'm speechless."

"What the..." Leon's eyes went round, astounded. "Something is not right!"

Leon reached out his hand into the pocket of his blazer, and take out a white card from it.

It was the First High ID Card!

"Did something happen to me before I came to take over my current body?" Leon's mind was spinning like lightning. "Why did I have my ID even before yesterday?"

"Did someone give it to me?"

"Why?"

It seems unlikely that ordinary people were able to provide First High ID Card.

So... who?

"It's either the teacher from First High or someone influential in the high place."

There must be a reason for someone to do this, and it's related to him and First High! Leon narrowed his eyes and made a note in his mind to investigate this matter.

His mind wandered into his brutal and murderous system. It clearly asking him to kill the named characters from the Anime.

But it's not like he had to do it...

Among the list, there are many people that better off dead, so maybe he could target them instead. It may bring unnecessary attention from various factions if he is careless, but he had no other choice. He needs the points, as fast as possible.

[Store]

There is additional content in his system. It appears after he finished reading the mission's list. It contains information about his current points and also the rewards that can be purchased by points.

There are various skills available in the store, but all of them are very expensive!

Or maybe he is too poor to purchase anything.

With the mission only consist of killing, it's become very hard for him to complete the mission, as It will undoubtedly attract the attention of the authority. It would be bad if the special forces or black-ops join into the fray.

Skilled Magic Technicians are capable of suppressing even nuclear weapons, and they are considered to be powerful weapons to a country. At the very least, there are few of them in this country including Tatsuya.

Even with Mangekyo and Kamui, he will still get screwed!

"Not to mention I can't use Mangekyo too often before I find out a method to prevent the blindness to get worse." he focused his eyes and caught a glimpse of something unusual.

His eyes are starting to blurry!

Even though it's barely noticeable, it's a fact that something is wrong with his vision.

Leon won't notice this problem if he doesn't pay close attention to it. This is the side effect of using Mangekyo.

This put Leon in great pressure, so he tries his hardest to remember something from Naruto that could help his predicament. Unconsciously, Leon's black eyes slowly changed its color.

It has been a few years since he watched the Anime, so it takes a while for Leon to remember, and this caught the attention of some freshmen around him. They are mesmerized by his beautiful red eyes. This coupled with his half Japanese and foreigner looks made Leon very attractive to them.

The female seems can't take their eyes away from him while the male can't help but click their tongues in dissatisfaction, but no one dares to mess with him the moment they noticed eight-petaled flower on his blazer.

Leon ignored all of them, be it freshmen or the seniors. His mind wandered into his previous world memories.

He remembers something important.

Kakashi acknowledged the fact that he was going blind even with his prudent use of the Mangekyou in Madara vs 8 Gates Might Guy, while Obito was able to use Mangekyo anytime he wants.

"I don't remember Obito ever get blinded by the side effect, so Hashirama Cells implanted on Obito may be able to prevent his eyes from getting blind..." his eyes flickered with hope, although there has been no proof of this in Leon's memories. This is but the most reasonable explanation about the Hashirama Cells theory.

If possible, Leon doesn't want to upgrade his Mangekyou to Eternal.

Why? Because It's a robbery!

The price of upgrading his eyes is very expensive!

He had to kill the protagonist and his sister in order to initiate the upgrade, so it's very unrealistic for him at the moment. Leon is considered to be strong in this world, but he doesn't think it's enough to kill a heavyweight like Tatsuya and his sister. Even if by chance he is successful in doing so, he will get hunted by the Ten Master Clans, which resulted in death.

So...

Leon quickly wipes out any thought about killing the protagonist, he doesn't want to kill a good person for any reason, no matter what.

Leon put back his mind into the system.

"Show me the list of Hashirama Cells."

[Hashirama Cells (Common) - 100 Points]

[Hashirama Cells (Uncommon) - 150 Points]

[Hashirama Cells (Rare) - 200 Points]

[Hashirama Cells (Mythical) - 400 Points]

[Hashirama Cells (Legendary) - 600 Points]

[Hashirama Cells (Immortal) - 900 Points]

Leon already expected something like this to happen, even so, a sigh can be heard leaking from his lips. After checking his Points. He only had a measly 10 Points, maybe it's a gift from the system, what a cheapskate! Meanwhile, he needs a whopping 900 Points to purchase the final version of Hashirama Cell.

Leon had no other choice but to put his purchase of Hashirama Cell on hold until he defeats some criminal for points.

It was still early morning so Leon walks around the school grounds as there still a lot of time before the start of the school entrance ceremony. Even so, the place is crowded with freshmen and their parents, anticipation could be seen from their faces.

All of them are freshmen, yet their uniforms were somewhat different. Similar to Leon, in some of the student's blazer was the emblem of First High School in the form of an eight-petaled flower. They are Course 1 students, while those without the emblem is Course 2 students.

The moment Leon approached the auditorium where the entrance ceremony was going to take place, he saw a man and woman in a disagreement. They are both clad in brand new uniforms.

This scene somewhat familiar to him somehow.

"I can't accept this."

"You're still going on about that...?"

It was a scene where the male student was trying to appease the female student's anger.

"Ah! They must be Tatsuya and Miyuki!" he asserted in realization. Leon never would have thought he failed to recognize the main characters of this world in one glance. They are very different from his memories and imagination.

Anime characters in the flesh!

It was at this moment that Leon remembers his sister. Leon had no idea how to locate his sister, and lack the means to do so. But Tatsuya and Miyuki are the members of Ten Master Clans, so with their family network, they might be able to locate his missing sister.

His musing was interrupted by the Miyuki's angry voice.

"How can you be so unsure of yourself?!" Miyuki reprimanded Tatsuya, rather indignant. "Even when there's no one who's a match for you in Academics and Martial-Arts! The truth is, even for Magic-"

"Miyuki!" As Tatsuya called out her name in an unusually sharp tone, Miyuki sobered up and shut her mouth.

"You understand right? Even if you say that, it can't be helped."

"...I apologize."

"Miyuki..."

Leon put his mind away from the pair of siblings before they started flirting, and considering if he should ask Tatsuya for help or not. It didn't take long before he decided against it. Even though Tatsuya is a member of Ten Master Clans, he is treated as an outcast in the family.

"As for Miyuki..."

She is the successor of Yotsuba Clan. It would be easy for them to find his sister whereabout but it will never happen. The head of Yotsuba Clan is Yotsuba Maya, one of the strongest Magicians of the modern era in the world, known as the "Queen of Night" and "Demon King of the Far East". The thought of asking for help from the Yotsuba family made him shudder.

If he remembers right, then her bounty is just below Kudou Retsu, a terrifying amount. If Leon is able to kill her then he would be able to upgrade his Mangekyou to Eternal or Purchase Hashirama Cell (Immortal). He had no idea what the Immortal version of Hashirama Cell can do as there is no description or any info about them from the system, but Leon knows for sure that it will greatly increase his combat power.

As for asking help from the 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion?

"it's very risky..." he shook his head. Tatsuya may be a member of 101 Independent Magic-Equipped Battalion, but he still has no idea if they are on the same side as him.

Leon was born in the United States of North American (USNA) so one of his parents may be an American, but so far he had no idea who is his parents, and what they do. Leon's identity is shrouded in mystery. It would be bad if they are terrorists, there no telling what would happen to him then.

"I have to find out everything concerning my identity, only then I will be able to join another faction in order to find my sister. Otherwise, I can only depend on myself." Leon rubbed his eyes, feeling tired.

Leon walks towards the pair of siblings and getting closer to them. He had no plan to ask for their help to find her sister but it doesn't mean he can't form a friendship with them. After all, They are the protagonist of this world, so their friendship is worth their weight in gold. Though Leon admits that they caught his interest, it's not every day you could find the legendary Siscon and Brocon.

The moment Leon tried to greet them, he set his eyes on Miyuki's face, and the words just stuck in his throat.

She had a very lovely and beautiful appearance!

Leon never actually saw her face before, he only saw her back, but the moment she turned her face towards him, he was stunned. She is way more beautiful than the one in Anime.

A real Yamato Nadeshiko!

Before Leon had a chance to speak, Miyuki bowed at her brother and disappeared into the auditorium, leaving Leon and Tatsuya behind, looking at each other silently.
