Chat Group For Magicians

Chapter 6: Tsuki Akari

As the opening ceremony came to an end, all the students returned to their classrooms without any fuss. However, there is no more time for the class as the recess bell rings. I don't feel hungry for now so I didn't go to the canteen. I decided to just go back to the classroom and sit down for a while. My guess is that the formal classes would start later this afternoon or tomorrow depending on the schedule.

What the girl earlier said the time of our meeting would be at lunchtime so I didn't rush to go in there. When I arrived back in the classroom, I saw a few of the thugs at the end of the classroom. One of them is Godou who seemed to be eating his sandwich. From the looks of it, he is one of my classmates. He has sharp eyes since I was still in front of the doorway when he saw me go in.

"Hey, Kazuma. So we are classmates huh?" Godou grinned and offered a bottle of soda to me.

"Thanks, man," I said and grab the soda.

One of the thugs scrutinizingly looked at me and seems to be calculating something.

"This guy is not bad. His body is well toned and from the looks of it, he practiced a few martial arts based on his body stance, breathing, and his skin."

I frowned when I heard that. I didn't tell anyone else that I practiced martial arts. He can tell just by looking at my body for a few minutes?

"Ahahaha, don't freak out Kazuma. This guy is Yuji Fukushima. Avid fans of martial arts and movies about them. For how many years he watched those things, he can now imitate a few of their move sets and he can tell now if the person can do martial arts or not. I hope you are not offended by him."

"Not at all," I said but in reality, I am a bit nervous. With the demon in the area, I am not sure whether these people are the suspect or not. Still, it is kind of rude if I did not respond to them.

I found out that Godou and the delinquents in the class are not really delinquents. They are just treated as one due to their scary-looking faces which easily intimidates the other people. They are actually good people and they have good grades in different subjects though they are also flunking to some. When lunch came, they bid farewell because they have to help out on a construction site since it was their part-time job. It is fine to me as well since I have an appointment with someone which might be the key to my questions.

...

When I arrived at the rooftop, I saw no one on the rooftop. I looked around the place but not a single soul is around. Does that mean, I arrived first? I did not see her back in the classroom earlier so my guess is that, she came into the rooftop first but I guess I am wrong.

"Hello? Anyone out there?"

It was silent at first but then, someone jumped out of nowhere behind me.

"So you have come."

Before I can even react, my instincts to dodge suddenly kicks in. I trust this instinct of mine because this helped me a lot in the past. Without thinking twice, I quickly rolled away from where I stand to the side.

BANG!

An explosion occurred to where I just stood. I was right. My instincts did not fail me. I then saw the person who attacked me. To my surprise, it was the girl earlier and she was holding a burning... bamboo sword?

"Good reflexes. You might still be a real deal magician. But why do I can't sense the mana in your body at all?"

I stood up and calmly looked at her. So this person is a magician. And she is indeed using magic. The Bamboo Sword she is holding is not really burning but it was like it is just there for decoration. It would already be in ashes if it was a real flame. What is more, the floor that I was standing before is cracked and scorched which means that this was the real deal magic.

"You want to test my might as a magician?" I frowned and pulled out the gloves from my pocket and wore them. Although I am not yet good at using this item properly, if things are in the bad, I have to deal with it impromptu.

Since imagining is much easier and I have seen many fantasy scenes, imagining flames in your hands is much easier.

FWOOOOOMMM!

Flames appeared from my hands without any kind of difficulty. The girl smiled and she quickly dashed forward while swinging the bamboo sword to my direction. I didn't falter and quickly countered the attack. Trained to fight against people with weapons in the past using your bare hands is my training which is easy to do right now. When the sword is about to land to me, my palms quickly deflected the bamboo sword. To my surprise, the bamboo sword is like a real sword being used. I know how heavy the real sword because I spar with my master in martial arts using a real sword in the past. So does that mean, this bamboo sword will be as heavy as a real sword if it was used by a magician?

But if this was a real sword, it would be a fatal mistake of me to deflect the bamboo sword without the proper way of doing so. What I just did is something that can block only a blunt weapon like baseball bats, iron pipes and other blunt weapons.

BANG!

I deflected the sword with force and also with the help of the pressure of the flames from my hand like a rocket. After deflecting the sword, I slipped my foot and released a kick to the girl. However, I did not expect the next outcome. Before I knew it, I was sent away in a blast. I did not even get to attack her using Blazing Shoes. The blast was powerful but it sounded like it was inside an enclosed area since it sounded loud and trapped. But I did not get to think too much on it because the girl quickly attacked me with her bamboo sword like crazy. I stood up and quickly rolled away from her. She looked at me with confusion in her eyes.

"You don't have too much mana in your body and yet you can cast magic and fight against me... Wait... you are not using magic equipment right?!"

I did not respond to her. She just attacked me out of nowhere so why would I answer her? I just made myself ready and did not bother to remove my gaze from her. The girl is confused but she shook her head before she swings her bamboo sword. When she swings the sword on one side, the flames on her sword disappeared and it returned into a regular bamboo sword.

"Looks like I have made a mistake. I thought that you are someone pretending as a monster since the signal is a bit close to you so I decided to lure you into my bait. But from the looks of it, you are just an ordinary guy. The only thing that I am confused about right now is that you are a normal person and yet you owned a piece of magic equipment. Besides that, you also have the Anonymous app. Just who the heck are you?"

I wipe off the dust on my uniform and looked at her. "You should explain first. I am demanding that since you attacked me without even giving a slight warning. You did not even bother to hold back."

The girl bows down, "I am sorry. I just thought you are the demon I am looking for. I thought that the demon managed to get information about Anonymous and is using it to track the other magicians around here. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Akari Tsuki and if you already read the chat group's log, I am the one they call Moonlight."
