Light

"So, he is in Tokyo now?" 

"Yes." 

"But..." Shiori looked at Airi with a complicated gaze and said helplessly, "But I never thought the two of you would become a fiance and a fiancee..." 

Hearing those words from her best friend, Airi blushed shyly, but she didn't intend to hide this fact since it had already become a fact, and she even announced it to the magician community. 

"Yes, he will be my future husband..." 

Her voice was so gentle, and her eyes were filled with affection.

When Shiori saw Airi, who was in this state, it was hard for her to stay calm, but fortunately, they had finished the entrance exam for the Third High School. 

"By the way, has he finished his entrance exam?" 

While Shiori wasn't sure why, she tried to change the subject of their conversation, hoping for Airi to stop talking about her engagement with Masa. 

"Not yet." Airi looked at her mobile terminal, seemingly waiting for Masa's email, but unfortunately, it might take him a while to send it. Still, she didn't want to bother him, especially when he should be busy with his entrance exam.

As for her entrance exam? 

Well, it was easy, and she didn't think that she would fail. 

Airi also thought that Masa didn't have a problem with his entrance exam and wanted to hear his voice, but even so, she didn't want to bother him and waited for him patiently like a good wife. 

"....." Shiori. 

Meanwhile, Masa had arrived in Tokyo for the first time and stayed in the hotel, which should be owned by his family. Yes, including the cyber-security field; naturally, he also made the Isshiki Family enter the real estate industry, including a hotel. 

Why? 

It was for safety. 

After all, having their own hotel was safer than staying at a different place, right? 

The Isshiki Family, who had many new magics due to Masa, wasn't weak, but even so, it was better to be prepared than be sorry. 

At the same time, due to Masa's stay in Tokyo, his family also prepared a new house for him, but the security system still needed to be installed. 

Still thinking of that new house, Masa wondered whether his family might be over-preparing since, instead of a house, he felt that the place his family had prepared for him was a fortress. 

Yet, for the future head of the Isshiki Family, all of them thought it was nothing, or rather, such preparation was needed, especially for Masa, who would be everyone's future head of the family. 

Go all out instead of being sorry. 

Probably, this was the motto of the Isshiki Family at this moment. 

Yet, inwardly, in this world, was there anyone who could even fight him? 

While Masa was busy with his entrance exam, he didn't forget to train all of his abilities, especially those that were gained from Masa One Piece. 

Masa of One Piece had devoured Machvise and Kizaru, but even so, he needed time to consume and develop the abilities he gained from the two. 

While Masa One Piece was on his way to learning all the necessary knowledge and started his beginning after his dangerous fight with Kizaru, Masa DxD also did his best to learn and improve the ability of Ton Ton no Mi. 

Ton Ton no Mi was a simple power, yet even so, it needed time to train.

More importantly, as Masa DxD had a lot of experience with physical ability, there was no doubt that he was the most suitable person to train the Ton Ton no Mi. 

Meanwhile, Masa Mahouka wasn't lazy; instead, he worked hard to learn how to improve Pika Pika no Mi's ability.

After getting the power of Pika Pika no Mi, besides manipulating light, Masa had been thinking about how to improve this ability further. 

In the original, the way Kizaru used the ability from the Pika Pika no Mi was pretty simple, which was just turning his body into a light, using his physical ability to attack someone with the speed of light or shoot a laser. 

Still, Masa didn't underestimate Kizaru and felt that such a way of using the Pika Pika no Mi was good. 

If there was something that Masa had to add, it was the fact that he could control the light to create a hologram, an optical illusion, by using the Pika Pika no Mi. 

This was probably the best way for him to improve the ability of Pika Pika no Mi, and as for the rest, it was enough to use the way Kizaru used this ability as with the speed of light, how could chase after him? 

What about others? 

Frankly, there were a lot of possibilities for the Pika Pika no Mi since the light was everywhere, and it was also dangerous as he could even create a gamma ray, x-ray, microwave, and many others. 

To be honest, among all the Logia-type of Devil Fruit, the Pika Pika no Mi could be said to be one of the most dangerous. 

Yet, there was a massive problem in developing such an ability. 

Radiation. 

Yes, whether it was a gamma ray, x-ray, microwave, or many others, all of them generated radiation. 

While Masa was immune, the environment wasn't, and if he really developed a magic that destroyed the environment, then he would be as good as gone. He also didn't like the idea of destroying the environment, considering how important it was for him and his family, especially in this country, Japan, where the useable land was so limited. 

Masa might say to leave the improvement of the Pika Pika no Mi to him, but then again, in reality, there was still a limit to what he could do. 

'If I have a "Regrowth..."

If Masa had "Regrowth," Tatsuya's innate ability, which allowed Tatsuya to return everything to its previous, original state within 24 hours, he would develop all the possibilities of the Pika Pika no Mi. 

Unfortunately, he didn't have such an ability, so he could only improve the Pika Pika no Mi in the field of illusion, especially optical illusion. 

Oh, and a laser, too. 

If possible, Masa hoped for Masa One Piece to devour Bomu Bomu no Mi or Pamu Pamu no Mi the next time the next Masa appeared, so that way, the ability of the Pika Pika no Mi could grow stronger, but he knew that when the next Masa appeared, what everyone aimed for wouldn't be Bomu Bomu no Mi or Pamu Pamu no Mi instead it would be a certain Zoan-type of a Devil Fruit. 

Nevertheless, this was fine, too, Masa thought. 

Still, as he thought of how to develop his Pika Pika no Mi, he was already about to arrive at the First High School to start his entrance exam, and he could see many middle school students walking toward the same, seemingly also intending to join the entrance exam. 

Nevertheless, no one intended to talk to each other since everyone in this place was a rival, and no one wanted to fail to enter this prestigious high school. 

Still, even so, even if everyone was a rival, everyone couldn't help but look in the direction of Masa.

Masa was wearing a facemask, hiding most of his features, but even so, his large body was impossible to ignore. 

While everyone's height was mostly less than 180 or even further below, his almost 190 cm was towering, and even though he appeared slim, everyone could feel the dense and powerful aura that came from Masa's body. 

It felt... hard to breathe somehow when they were close to him, as if he was an existence above them. 

Yet even so, many of them wished to get close to him, especially when all of them saw his appearance and hoped to see his real face under that facemask. 

However, while the majority were attracted to his appearance, one girl stared at him in a daze due to how warm and bright he was. The Pika Pika no Mi had turned him into a human light. Instead of the powerful bio-electricity on his body, his light was more vibrant, and it might not be wrong to say that he was like the sun. 

Yet, even so, ordinary people and magicians might not notice this. 

However, it was different from this girl, who was particularly sensitive toward the light, and because of Masa's light, she just... couldn't look away. 

"Honoka, what's wrong?" 

Her friend, who walked by her side, looked at the girl in confusion. 

"Hey, remove your facemask. You can't enter the school with that." 

At the entrance of the First High School, such a conversation happened, and Masa, who was told to remove his facemask, did so and caused everything to be in silence. Yet, he ignored everyone's reaction and asked the school staff. "Can I enter now?" 

The staff, who was in a daze, quickly nodded. "Ah, yes, please!" 

Masa nodded, then entered the school casually, giving off a laid-back attitude, yet even so, many still couldn't wake up from their stupor from watching his face for the first time. 

Masa's charm, which had become three times better, was just so destructive, after all. 

Yet, Honoka's friend, Shizuku Kitayama, who followed her best friend's gaze, understood why her best friend had been in a daze and rooted in a place. 

Was this the beginning of the first love of the two girls? 

Spring, new encounters, and love. 

The weather might still within the winter, but even so, they couldn't help but imagine that spring had come, and all the girls who had seen Masa for the first time anticipated such a future, and they hoped to succeed in their entrance exam so that they could meet him!
