Event 57: Genius Challenge

A few days passed since Haruta and Yamamoto attended the convention where they obtained the gift of Kayaba Akihiko, that day they both returned to their respective homes and rested in their own way.

On Haruta's side, I leave the Nervegear in an empty room, hoping at some point to transform it into a video game room.

Continuing with the routine, Haruta continued her part-time job while waiting for the publication of the first volume of Mahouka.

"The exams are coming again, this time I have to study hard to keep up" Komuro complained out loud when he saw the dates on the calendar.

"You should study for all the exams if you don't want to be in this situation" Rei reproached annoyed by Komuro's comments

"Rei is right, komuro" Hisashi reaffirmed from behind, the trio discussed about the exams and the grades they need to pass everything correctly.

On the other hand, Haruta was still immersed in his thoughts "Haruta?" the female voice brought the black-haired man back from his thoughts with a shake on his shoulder.

"yes?" Haruta asked entering reality again "what happens?"

"You see it?" Komuro asked Hisashi pointing at Haruta with the palm of his right hand "He has no worries about exams after all he's the genius of the class, since you came to school your grades are at the top of the class and even that of the generation, really surprising "

Haruta quickly grasped the topic of conversation but let Komuro's comments pass since he was unaware of his reincarnation and as a first life he went to university with several failed exams.

"Sigh ..." Haruta sighed, then calmly stretched his body.

"I challenge you!" The stoic, stern, strict female voice caught Haruta's attention by making her notice a certain pink-haired girl in front of her post.

Takagi stood in front of Haruta with his arms crossed and a stern expression, Haruta quickly processed everything that had happened and realized what Takagi was referring to "I surrender" Haruta raised his hands while declaring his voluntary defeat "I have no motivation to compete in the matter of qualifications "

"You have to agree to enter the competition!" Takagi exclaimed angrily as she hit the Haruta table with her right palm "I want to prove here and now who of the two is the true genius of the class!"

"Hey Takagi you should stop, Haruta does not like titles" remembering the story that Erina Nakiri told everyone at the cooking club, Komuro tried to stop Takagi who was demanding to have a duel with Haruta.

"Shut up Komuro, this is between Haruta and me! I don't need lawyers to have a challenge against Haruta" Takagi said with a severe tone making Komuro take a step back, as Takagi's childhood friend he knew very well what the The girl's personality as well as knew how stubborn and proud she could be.

"I am already to the horn of comparisons between us, since you came to school you were lucky and now I will show it, of course if you have enough confidence" said Takagi again challenging Haruta as he continued sitting in the same place as before without say a word.

"Good"

Haruta's answer caught everyone's attention, seeing that Haruta rose from his seat with a serious expression the trio knew very well what would happen.

"Well, I will accept your challenge but this must be something serious, I want to win something if I win" said Haruta with a malicious smile on his face.

Takagi stared at Haruta as she let out a small smile "Fine, but if I win you must accept a request at my will" Takagi said proudly

"I have no problem" replied Haruta honestly "If you won the challenge, you will have to clean and prune my entire garden personally based on my specifications, I must clarify that it is a quite extensive garden" Haruta warned smiling evilly remembering the state of his garden after being neglected for so long.

Takagi hesitated for a moment but his pride was the impediment to retract "It's just a little gardening work, anyone could do that, but if I win you have to fulfill any request I have in mind no matter what it is" when demanding the prize for her in the event that she won, Takagi had nothing in mind and therefore only demanded that the dark-haired man grant a request.

Haruta did not doubt anything, he could only laugh out loud calling everyone's attention "You don't need to think about what you will win, since you challenged me to a duel you have not had any chance to win" The severe expression on his face showed that he was telling the truth .

"Now everyone in the classroom is witnessing the challenge you imposed on me, the victory conditions are the average among all the exams, whoever has the highest average is the winner" recalling his mistakes during the last duels of Tootsuki, Haruta defined the rules from the beginning "It is not necessary to make a formal document with all the witnesses it is not necessary"

"You said so, we don't need to do a document and I'm not going to be intimidated by your actions" Takagi said angrily making Haruta just smile.

"Good, I will look forward to our duel" Haruta replied, moving away from Takagi and returning to his seat, leaving everyone perplexed with the situation.

Rei was the first to go to Haruta's post "are you crazy?" Rei asked questioning Haruta "

"What do you mean?" Haruta asked without understanding Rei's claims.

"Takagi is the lady of a great family, only this challenge will bring you problems" Rei warned seriously while the two youngsters just nodded

Haruta just smirked making Rei take a few steps back "Perfect, if someone that important cleaning my garden will be much more rewarding ..."
