Entrance Exam 2

After the writing exam ended, most students were pale and quite weak since it was harder than they had thought. Based on the history, the highest one was only around 70, and there were no students who could get a perfect score, showing how difficult the exam was.

As for Haru, the exam was very easy for him. He then looked at Honoka, who was sitting next to him, and she seemed to be very tired. "Mitsui-san, are you alright?"

"Ah, yes, the exam has ended, right, Rokkaku-kun?" Honoka seemed that she was still dreaming.

"The exam has ended, I'm sure that you'll do well, but for now, we need to focus on the next exam, right?" Haru said calmly. "Let's go to the exam location."

"Yes." Honoka nodded and somehow felt a bit better with Haru beside her, but then, she wanted to ask the question that she wanted to ask.

"If you're asking about Kasugano Haruka, then he isn't in this high school," Haru said.

"..." Honoka.

"I can pretty much tell you that you're going to ask me that question," Haru said helplessly.

"Sor - Sorry, Rokkaku-kun, but I'm quite curious. After all, Kasugano Haruka is from your clan, right?" Honoka asked.

"Um, he's from our clan, but with his popularity, he needs to wear a disguise so he won't be troubled in the school," Haru said simply.

"I see..." Honoka nodded. After all, she knew how popular Haru was, but then, she saw Haru's glasses. Somehow she could feel the presence of magic on it, even though it was almost non-existent, or rather the amount was so minimal that she didn't notice it, but when she was about to ask...

"Honoka."

Honoka turned and saw her best friend. "Shizuku!"

Haru then looked at the petite girl with a blank expression and somehow deadpanned voice.

The girl also looked at Haru with some shock. After all, she could feel how wild Haru's aura was, and then she looked at Honoka, who often was as scared as a rabbit, wondering how Honoka could be together with this delinquent-like boy.

"Ah, yes, Shizuki, this is Rokkaku Haruka. He's sitting beside me during the exam earlier," Honoka quickly introduced Haru.

Haru gave a nod to Shizuku and said, "Hello, Shizuku-san."

"Yes, Haruka-kun." Shizuno nodded.

"...." Honoka.

"Rokkaku-kun, you can't call girls by their first name!" Honoka said with a blush on her face.

"So Shizuku isn't her family name?" Haru asked.

"Of course not!" Honoka quickly introduced her best friend and said, "She's my best friend, Kitayama Shizuku."

"Should I call you, Kitayama-sam?" Haru asked.

Shizuku shook her head and said, "You can call me Shizuku."

Haru nodded and said, "Well, you can also call me Haru."

"....." Honoka wasn't sure, but somehow she felt quite jealous.

"Well, let's go to the exam location since we might be late if we stay any longer," Haru said.

"Good." Shizuku nodded.

Honoka then noticed Haru and Shizuku were looking at her, then she quickly reacted and said, "Ah, yes!"

Along the way, the three of them talked to each other. Even though Haru was flaring up his magic power, it didn't really affect both Honoka and Shizuku. He was also very good at talking, especially with girls, so both had a good time with him, talking and laughing, somehow forgetting that they were at the exam. Still, when they were about to approach the exam location, they saw a lovely girl with long straight black hair that could captivate everyone in this place instantly.

Haru raised his eyebrow and knew that Maya's niece and nephew would be in this place, so he didn't feel that much surprised, but one thing for sure, he had to admit that Yotsuba's genes were good since Maya's niece was lovely. However, compared to Maya's mature charm, this girl was still too far away.

Haru then saw the ordinary young man standing beside the beautiful girl, and this young man was looking at him. He only gave him a nod, and the young man also gave him a nod. Still, this young man was so normal that he couldn't say much.

The beautiful girl seemed to notice the movement of the young man beside her. She followed his gaze, looking at the untamed young man who seemed to flare his Magic Power everywhere, which made her a bit dumbfounded, but the strangest thing was that the young man didn't seem to look at her, or rather, he was more focussed on the girls beside him.

"Mitsui-san, Shizuku, let's go," Haru said to both of them.

Shizuku nodded, but somehow Honoka pouted.

"Why are you pouting?" Haru asked with a smile.

"Hmph!" Honoka looked away.

Haru shook his head and didn't say much before entering the examination room together with Honoka and Shizuku.

When they left, the ordinary young man and the beautiful girl looked at their back.

"There seems to be an interesting student," the young man said.

"...." The girl sighed and said, "All I can see is a delinquent there."

"Really? But his control over magic is amazing since the two girls beside him don't seem to be affected by his Magic Power," the young man said.

"Yeah..." The girl nodded.

"And his Magic Power seems to be matched, or more excellent than yours, Miyuki," the young man said.

The expression of the girl changed and asked, "Is that true, Onii-sama?"

"Well, let's see how he does on the exam, alright?" The young man said.

The girl nodded since she was also curious.

---

Haru knew that the ordinary young man and the beautiful girl he had seen before was Shiba Tatsuya and Shiba Miyuki, and he knew very well that they were both Maya's nephew and niece.

'So I'm their uncle?' Haru wasn't sure how to describe his emotion at that moment.

"Rokkaku-kun, don't you think that girl is beautiful?" Honoka asked with some nervousness.

"Call me, Haru," Haru said.

"Huh?" Honoka was surprised.

"I'll call you Honoka, so call me Haru. It's so troublesome if you call me Rokkaku-kun every time since someone might ask me about Kasugano Haruka later," Haru said.

"The - Then Haru..." Honoka blushed and felt her face was scorching, but she felt happy.

"...." Shizuku looked at Haru and Honoka but didn't say much.

"Well, let's finish the exam, so we can go back quickly," Haru said.

"Um." Shizuku nodded.

Honoka also nodded, but then she realized that Haru avoided her question and changed the topic of conversation so quickly, which made her dumbfounded. She looked at Haru thoughtfully and somehow wanted to know him better.
