'Who is this girl?' Souta thought while looking at her.

The girl has long lilac-colored hair that was tied in a ponytail at the back of her head. Her eyes have different colors. Her left eye was blue in color while the other one was crimson red.

She's wearing the uniform of the Ladro Institute. Her bust wasn't big nor small, it's a normal size. Her skin was smooth and as white as snow.

She was beautiful, more than any woman that Souta saw.

'Whoa! It's my first time seeing these eyes...' Souta was amazed when he saw her eyes. He then recalled what she said before and shivered. He opened his mouth and said, "W-What did you say?"

"Ah~ you didn't hear it clearly. Okay, I will repeat it for you." The woman placed her mouth near his ear and said, "I love you. I want you to myself. Even now, I'm holding myself for taking you. I know, you're still not ripe."

"Hah? That's not what you said before." Souta frowned as he looked at her. 'There's something wrong in her head.' He thought when he heard her words.

"Ufufu, it seems that you are listening to me. I like it." The girl flashed a seductive smile at him.

"Anyways, help me stand," Souta said as his body was embedded deep in the walls. He couldn't move well because of his injuries and tiredness.

Since this girl was wearing the uniform of Ladro Institute, he thought that she was here to help her fellow students.

"I don't want to." The girl said as she just looked at him without doing anything.

Souta was stunned. He was about to say something when the ceiling above them collapsed.

Boom!!

"But don't worry, I won't let anyone get you. I will kill those people that dared to hurt you. Only... Only I could do that! Ah! I won't let anyone! Those rights are mine!" At the end of her sentence, her tone changed, and her breathing speeds up.

'Damn! This girl is bad news!' Souta cursed in his mind and wondered who this girl is.

"Hmph!" The girl looked up and her magical power exploded.

Boom!!

Her aura swept the debris of rocks that were falling.

Souta was shocked when he saw this. He started to think if this girl was really just a student. Her power wasn't something a student could possess.

Just who the hell is this crazy girl?

...

The fall of the building naturally caused a commotion. The people in the vicinity looked at this curiously and wondered what happened that caused this building to fall.

"What happened here?"

"I don't know. I just heard a loud explosion and when I looked the building was falling."

"Let's call the city guard."

"They will handle this kind of thing."

The people around started whispering to each other. Then, they saw three people wearing black cloaks walked towards the site.

"So he's still alive." He muttered in a low voice. He glanced at his surroundings and decided to finish this quickly before the city guard arrived here.

Suddenly, a man burst out of the debris of rocks. The man has short spiky black hair and black eyes. He was Bryan Dagruel.

"Oh~ I thought I would die," Bryan said as he wiped the blood on his forehead. He looked around him and saw Souta with a girl that he didn't know.

"Souta, what are you doing?" He opened his mouth and asked Souta.

Souta lifted up his head and looked at Bryan. "Oh? Bryan, you're still alive."

"Of course, I wouldn't die easily." Bryan smiled and said. He then looked at the girl in front of Souta and asked, "By the way, who's that girl?"

"She?" Souta glanced at the girl in front of him and shook his head. "I don't have any idea who she is but I think she's our ally this time."

The girl glanced at Bryan before she turned to Souta. She slowly opened her mouth and said, "Ufufu, not ours but yours."

'Damn! This crazy girl! Where the hell did she pop out!' Souta cursed inside his mind. He didn't let it showed on his face. He just simply smiled while looking at her. "Hehehe."

"Ufufu." The girl also smiled while looking at him.

'Okay, I'll ignore her for now.' Souta thought as he closed his eyes. He doesn't want to look at her for now.

At this time, Brando and Lumilia emerged from the debris of rocks with Cluster. Both of them were covered in bruises as they protected Cluster from harm.

"Are you okay, Cluster?" Lumilia looked at Cluster and she gently asked.

"Yes, I'm fine but you and brother..." Cluster said as she looked at Lumilia and Brando who protected her.

"Don't worry about us. We're fine." Lumilia smiled and she patted Cluster's head.

"Yeah, don't worry. We're going to protect you." Brando said as he flashed a bright smile to Cluster. He then looked around with a frown on his face. They survived but the other customers in this place weren't as lucky as them.

'Just who the hell are those people?' He thought.

Vince and the man with a scar on his face emerged from the ground.

"That fucking brat!!" Vince cursed loudly while holding his head. He felt pain on his head as a huge rock fell on it before.

"Where the fuck he is?!" The man with a scar on his face gritted his teeth in anger.

The people wearing black cloaks were stunned when they saw that Souta's group survived without a single casualty.

The man that looked like the leader gritted his teeth. He opened his mouth and shouted, "Kill them all, we need to finish them! We can't afford to fail this!"

"Yes!!" All of them pulled out their sword.

Swoosh!!

Suddenly, the woman beside Souta appeared in front of him.

"Wha-" The man was surprised when he saw this. He couldn't understand how this girl appeared in front of him. She was so fast that he couldn't even saw her moved.

"I've heard it, you know. You wanted to kill my precious S-Sou... Ah~ I can't handle it anymore. Just saying his name... makes me... Ah~" The girl said in a strange tone. Then, she stretched out her hand to grab the man but the man jumped backward.

"What the hell is this girl?" The man said while looking at the girl.

"You!! I'll smash, crush, break, and destroy you, ugly bastard!!" The girl shouted and her mana burst out of her body.

Boom!!

Her release of power shook the entire ground and a powerful gust of wind swept out in the whole area.

Her aura suppressed every people in the vicinity. It was so powerful that weak people couldn't even breathe under her aura.

"Argh!!" The man that looked like the leader gritted his teeth as he tried to endure the pressure. The air around him was tightening. The pressure were focused on him and his comrades. He opened his mouth and said, "Let's abort the mission. Let's find another opportunity."

They thought that it would be an easy mission as Souta and the other were injured, but who would have thought that this girl would appear out of nowhere and help Souta's group.

"Hmph! You will not get away!" The girl snorted and waved her hand. It was followed by a dense mana that swept everything out. It was so dense that people could see it with their own eyes.

Boom!!

The dense mana swallowed the people who were wearing black cloaks. Not just them but the other people who were watching this got caught up in the aftermath.

Boom!!

It caused several explosions in the area around them. It destroyed a few building and the people started to run in panic. Obviously, they don't want to die in this place.

"So powerful..." Brando covered his eyes as he stood in front of Lumilia and Cluster.

"Ahhh!!" Bryan shouted as the explosion swallowed him. He was closed to the man with the scar on his face and Vince, so he got caught up in the explosion.

...

Smoke and dust-covered some parts of the destroyed buildings. The whole area was in ruins as more than ten buildings were destroyed.

"Damn! The crazy girl is powerful!" Souta muttered while looking around him. He was safe and sound. Not even dust reach him despite the powerful explosions around him.

The girl protected him well. Only him as Bryan's condition right now was unknown.

Brando placed down his hand and looked at the girl with long lilac-colored hair. "Just who is this girl?"

Lumilia looked at the girl and gulp. "I remember those features. That hair color, that eyes, and that face. There's no doubt about this."

"Do you know her?" Brando asked.

"Yeah, I think she's the current Top 1 Ranker of the whole institute. The one who dominated the Grand Tournament and beat the Royal Prince. The most powerful student of Ladro Institute in history..."

"Yanagi Shina."
