Chapter 151

There are other battles happening too from different parts of the 9SC venue Tatsuya's friends Erika, Leo, and Mikihiko are handling the ninjas quite well but they are having a hard time dealing with the Generators because they don't have the right tool for it. Especially Erika, if she had her Odachi with her then killing the generator is an easy task. Mizuki is also with them as a support using her special that can see the invisible and this is the reason they are able to deal with ninjas easily because they can't hide using their stealth skill while Mizuki is here. 

This group noticed that after dealing with the ninjas, their blood started moving on its own in a certain direction. They wanted to follow the blood but they were pre-occupied with the generators.

"I can follow them, Everyone already dealt with the ninjas, so my eyes are useless against this.. people," Mizuki said unsure if these generators were even human because of the the way they carry themselves. She is also staring intently at the blood of the ninjas that was moving, not removing her sight from it so as to not lose it.

"You can't! We don't know what would happen to that blood" Mikihiko said while he cast a spell using the traditional method.

"But…" Mizuki wanted to retort but Erika beat her to it "Listen to him Mizuki, we don't how dangerous the one controlling the blood is, so stay with us here and after we deal with enemies then we can go" Erika said as she dodged an attack from the generators before hitting it with a baton-like CAD "And if something happened to you, your lover boy here is not gonna forgive himself" She added while she pointed her head at Mikihiko with a smiled. She could smell the growing tension between these two from a Mile away, so she wanted to help her childhood friend Mikihiko get together with Mizuki.

Hearing this both the suspect blushed "Oi Erika!!" Mikihiko shouted but Erika ignored him. He then looked at Mizuki who was staring at him before looking down as if not meet his gaze. This him think that Mizuki is ashamed to be lumped together with him and this makes him embarrassed too. However, he had other thoughts that he should apologize to her after this or maybe take her out or something as an apology.

Tatsuya and Miyuki on the other hand are able to easily dispose of the enemies with the help of Honoka and Shizuku. Even though Miyuki can deal with them on her own, Tatsuya doesn't allow her to do it because he can't let her expose that she is that strong yet.

Tatsuya also noticed the blood moving toward the venue of the Battle Board event after using his elemental sight to predict its trajectory. He didn't use Decomposition to the blood because he was quite curious as to what this blood was going to do in the end.

The ninjas are not the only traditionalists that are attacking the 9SC right now. There is another version of traditionalists too like a wannabe exorcist or onmyoji and wannabe monks wearing a hat shape like a cone. What are their abilities? They're about to show it to the Chocolate beauty.

"Thank you for helping me catch the baits," Gonjin said on the phone with a smile while also driving in the middle of the road.

"Don't thank me and just give me the money you owe for this"

"The money has been transferred to your account," Gonjin replied.

"You better be or I'll hunt you down"

Gonjin laughed lightly at that foolish remark before asking "How's students doing?"

"A lot of dead people already before I even get back here. This is an expensive distraction"

"And their life purpose was fulfilled," Gonjin said before turning off the phone as he headed towards the Chinatown of this city with baits.

The student council crew plus Mari and minus Miyuki are also protecting civilians and helping other students from different to fight off the ninjas and some generators.

"Don't get distracted Mayumi" Mari shouted as she defended Mayumi from an incoming attack from a ninja before retaliating to the ninja using the Dojiri style swordsmanship technique. The twin blades in Mari's left hand release a small short blade that swings toward the ninja's head.

Mari wields two thin strings in her left hand that emit a repulsion edge Pressure Slash, while her twin blades do the same when aimed at the ninja's head. Thanks to Gravity-Type acceleration magic, the string exceeds the speed of the blades, creating a three-way attack that's nearly impossible to dodge, resulting in the ninja's shoulder and head being cut. Even Tatsuya would struggle to evade it.

This secret Genji sword technique, originally called Multiple Slash but later renamed Dojigiri to hide its identity, was believed lost in the age of public magic. Mari accidentally discovered it through ancient texts and trained with Naotsugu, adapting the technique to include Pressure Slash. Due to her family's low status, her mastery of Dojigiri remains mostly unknown to avoid complications.

Mari waved down her sword to remove the blood from her blade "What's wrong with you?" She questions Mayumi in concern. Currently, she is the one here with Mayumi as not far away from them are Suzunne and Azusa who are helping other students to evacuate the civilians.

Azusa uses her special magic called Azusayumi to calm the panicking civilians. It's an Informational Manipulative Outer-Systematic Type of Magic that could clamp down panic and is most effective when used towards a group of people. It is described as some sort of a hallucinatory sound, a subconscious sound of the tides, and waves of Pushion's which makes the affected people's consciousness concentrate on it, putting them into a trance. The effect of the magic only lasts a mere three seconds but is said to be sufficient enough to gather a crowd's full attention. Azusa uses the pendant of her necklace—revealed to be the core component of a CAD that was designed to support exactly one type of magic, in which only one Activation Sequence was recorded—forming a miniature magic staff that she uses to activate Asuzayumi.

Mayumi turn to Mari before saying in concern "I can't contact the twins" She had been trying to contact them ever since this shitstorm happened but to no avail they won't answer their phone. Now she's afraid that something happened to them after as Gasper said she jinxed it.

"What about the bodyguard you assign to them? Can you contact him?" asked Suzanne who just arrived after she and Azusa finished evacuating the civilians in their vicinity. It's not much but she too can fight but not as well as other students in fact she'll be just a burden here if she stays here, that's why they suggested that she and Asuza should go with the civilians. However, she insists on staying as Asuza is enough to calm the civilians because of her magic.

Mayumi shook her head in response to Suzunne's question. This is also the reason why Mayumi thought something happened to them because if she can't contact the bodyguard that means something happened to them too. That bodyguard whose name is Nakura Saburou is a strong magician in his own right. Though he does get into a fight, he's probably at a disadvantage because there is no water in the area they had gone to.

"Then we better finish this, so we help you find your sisters," Maki said while she prepared to go and attack the lone generator that was being cornered by the student.

Suzunne patted Mayumi's shoulder "Don't worry we'll find them" She said with a smile before joining Mari and the others.

Mayumi wanted to retort Suzunne for jinxing it again but she held it back. She then joins them too though not before informing her father of what could possibly transpire for the twins.
