Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 31 31



On a sunny morning, Setsuka walked to school together with Kohana. Her little sister walked with light steps while holding her hand. Setsuka glanced to the side and smiled wryly when she saw the little girl's happy face.

Setsuka was pleased when she saw his sister's happiness, but the reason behind the little girl's smile gave her a headache. Since returning home yesterday, Kohana told her father and mother what had happened to her. Their parents are the current head of the Fuyushima temple and are one of Japan's most powerful and influential Realizers.

Their mother and father were shocked when they heard about the incident and immediately checked on Kohana's condition repeatedly until they confirmed that her little daughter was okay.

Kohana recounts the boy's heroic actions as passionately as a girl who has just found her first love. The little girl even repeated her story several times last night. It could only make her parents smile.

Afterwards, they asked Setsuka to find the boy at her school and properly express their gratitude. It didn't stop there, Kohana kept reminding Setsuka to find the boy, and she had said it dozens of times.

In the end, Setsuka was forced to promise Kohana to find the boy today, which gave her a headache. She could use her authority as student council president to search for the student at every corner of Suisei High School. But to find it in one day is not that easy.

The total number of students at Suisei High School is over seven hundred. If Setsuka narrowed her search to only talented students, she would still have to eliminate half of them. So it was almost impossible for her to find that person.

Even though Kohana had told her the boy's characteristics, it only made Setsuka more confused because her words were not clear. If Setsuka had to conclude her sister's description of the face of the person who saved her, then almost all the male students at Suisei High School fit that explanation.

"Haa..." Setsuka sighed when she saw the Suisei High School building in sight. She didn't know how many times she had sighed this morning.

After arriving at the gates of Suisei Elementary School, Kohana let go of her hand and looked at Setsuka seriously. Her face looks cute when she puts on such an expression.

"You mustn't forget your promise, big sister! After school, I will be waiting for you at the gate, and you must take that boy!" Kohana said with a big smile and ran into her school area without waiting for an answer from her sister. Setsuka couldn't say no when she saw her sister's expression.

"Haa..." Setsuka sighed again and walked at a brisk pace. On her way, she returned greetings from students who passed her with only a nod and a short answer. After arriving at school, Setsuka did not come to her classroom but went straight to the student council office.

As the student council president, Setsuka had the privilege of not coming to class. So it didn't matter if she missed a lesson because seventy percent of the school curriculum was actual combat practice.

"Good morning, Setsuka!"

When she entered the student council office, Setsuka immediately got a greeting and a gentle smile from a female student. She is a brown-haired girl of average height.

The female student is Kaede Kobayashi and is Setsuka's childhood friend. She is in the same class as Setsuka and serves as the student council secretary. Kaede is someone other than her family who can melt Setsuka's cold demeanor. Although she is not as beautiful as Setsuka, her gentleness makes every man want to protect her.

"Good morning Kaede. Did you come early?" Setsuka returned Kaede's greeting in a weak voice and then sat down in her chair.

"Yes. I have something to finish right away, so I came early." Kaede looked at Setsuka and frowned after seeing her childhood friend's face.

"Has something happened? You already look exhausted even before doing any activities at school." Kaede asked worriedly.

"Something did happen." Setsuka sighed heavily and recounted what had happened yesterday and this morning.

"Kohana almost had an accident, and someone from this school saved her!? Then you promise to find him today as well!?" Kaede panicked after hearing the story and then let out a sigh of relief after she heard that Kohana was fine.

Kaede is Setsuka's childhood friend and is very close to her family, including her sister. Since middle school, Kaede often comes to Fuyushima Temple and plays with Kohana. She already considers the little girl her sister.

"Yes. This would be much easier if Kohana had a photo of the boy." Setsuka weakly replied.

"Pfft!" Kaede held back her laughter with both hands after learning about Setsuka's problem.

"I was the one who made my trouble for pampering Kohana too much and quickly agreed to her request. But I can't do anything about it because she's been urging me since last night." Setsuka leaned back on the chair and massaged her forehead.

"If you want to look for the male student, you should probably look for him from the second and third years first because the first year is applying to the organization and will be back before lunchtime." Kaede reported. She just got that information from the new student homeroom teachers this morning.

"Ah! We can use this opportunity to recruit those first-year students into the student council." Kaede added.

"I understand. You can manage that problem. For now, please help me sort out the talented students of Suisei High School from the first to the third year. I will look for students other than that list who match the characteristics that Kohana has explained to me." Setsuka looked at her computer screen and started looking for the student who had saved her sister. But not long after that, the office door opened, and a handsome boy entered the room.

"Good morning!" The boy smiled refreshingly.

"Good morning, Ishida."

"Good morning."

Kaede replied with her usual gentle smile, whereas Setsuka returned it nonchalantly. That boy was the student council vice president, Satoru Ishida. He was also in the same class as Setsuka and Kaede because the second-year students from class A monopolized this year's student council.

"What are you doing? You guys looked busy when I walked in." Satoru looked at Kaede and then at Setsuka. Anyone who saw it could tell that Satoru looked at the two girls differently.

Satoru looked at Kaede like a classmate while his eyes on Setsuka were full of concern and affection. Kaede didn't care because all the student council members and her classmates knew Satoru's feelings for Setsuka. Unfortunately, his feelings were unrequited. Even so, Satoru doesn't seem to give up and continues to pursue his love.

"I'm helping Setsuka find a student." Kaede answered and told Satoru what had happened. On the other hand, Setsuka seemed indifferent to Satoru and focused on the computer screen in front of her eyes.

"Oh, I see! Then, I will help you!" Satoru said excitedly. Setsuka wanted to refuse, but Satoru had already sat in his chair and started looking for the male student on his computer. His goal in helping Setsuka was to prevent the girl he loved from getting close to the male student, even if it was to return the favor. Satoru felt insecure if he had to let Setsuka interact with other boys.

After several hours, Setsuka and the others still couldn't find the male student. They had narrowed their search to talented students, but none of them was correct.

"I have sent all photos of talented male students from the second and third year to Kohana, but they are all wrong." Setsuka said to Kaede.

"Unfortunately, we still don't have photos of the first-year students because the data will only be updated once they have completed their registration with the organization." Kaede replied helplessly.

"Didn't they come back? How about we go to them directly? I'm sure most of them are currently in the cafeteria." Satoru made a suggestion. He intended to accompany Setsuka as it would make it easier for him to prevent other male students from approaching her.

"Hmm… that's a good idea. How's Setsuka?" Kaede looked at her childhood friend and asked for her approval.

"Alright. Let's go." Setsuka gave a slight nod and got up from her chair. Afterwards, the three exited the student council office and headed towards the cafeteria.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, Setsuka and the others started looking for first-year students based on their data. Kaede secretly took a photo of the student's face and sent it to Kohana, but none of them was the one who saved that little girl.

After they checked the talented first-year male students one by one and they were all wrong, only one student was left on their list, and that student was the best new batch of students.

"I wish he was the one who saved Kohana." Setsuka sighed and felt a bit tired. She was worried that the last student was wrong and Kohana would be disappointed in her. They walked towards a table, and Setsuka saw a handsome boy surrounded by many female students.

"Are you a first-year student named Akio Sanagawa? I am the student council president of Suisei High School, Setsuka Fuyushima. Can I have a few seconds of your time?" Setsuka asked Akio.

"Ah! Yes, I am Akio Sanagawa! Nice to meet you, president!" Akio got up from his seat and was mesmerized when he saw Setsuka's otherworldly beauty from such a close distance. Yesterday he could only stare at her from afar and did not dare to greet her. Then Akio subconsciously offered his hand for a handshake, but the one who accepted it was not Setsuka.

"I am Satoru Ishida and the student council vice president. I'm also glad to be your acquaintance. I apologize that our president is not used to having physical contact with men other than his family." Satoru gripped Akio's hand tighter and released his pressure to intimidate him.

"Is that so?" Akio didn't flinch and provoked him instead. On the other hand, Setsuka looked at Kaede and asked.

"I've taken a photo of him and sent it to Kohana, and the result is… wrong." Kaede looked at Setsuka and smiled bitterly.
