A tall handsome middle-aged man, with snow-white hair, small red eyes and wore a black furcoat, walked his way up to the school's helipad.

"-HAS GOT TEN POINTS! Our sixth years are winning the glooooryy!!", Net enthusiastically announced.

The man walked up next to Net and looked at the students below.

Net, who saw him suddenly walk in was shocked.

"X-x... X-TINCT-SAMA!", Net who was still holding his mike couldn't help but scream out when he saw him.

The people below heard his scream and looked up to see...

Their favorite idol...

The most powerful savior...

The one and only...

"X-TINCT-SAMA!"

""""""KKYYYYYYYAAAAAHH!!"""""", girls of all ages and even the students couldn't hold their voices when they saw him.

"It's him! The amazing X-tinct-sama!"

"He looks so cool!"

"He's so handsome!"

"X-TINCT-SAMA! I'M YOUR BIGGEST FAN!"

Akiko, who was munching on takoyaki she was eating with a barbecue stick, couldn't help but get annoyed by the women around her's loud screaming.

"Mmm... They're so loud... I want to enjoy my food in peace.", she said with an incredulous expression.

'Well, one day, I'm sure Akio and Akira would take that top savior pedestal of his! You'll all be Kyaa-ing to my cute little sons!', she thought.

X-tinct looked down at the people, as if looking for someone.

"Uhhh... X-tinct-sama, I'm your biggest fan so, can I get your-", Net who was beside X-tinct, decided to pull out a notebook that came from nowhere and let X-tinct autograph it... but when he turned around to make him sign it...

He was gone.

"Ehhh? Ehh? X-tinct-sama?", Net was slightly confused as to where X-tinct disappeared to.

"He didn't have a teleportation ability, right? Then where did he...?"

______________________________________

"Haaaah?", the light blue haired man who looked like a zombie, and wore a white and black striped overalls asked.

"What do you mean, what? Were you even listening?", he continued with an irritated expression.

"To tell you the truth, I don't even give a shit what you want to tell me. Whatever my father did or whatever his plans were, whatever happened in the past, I don't want lowlives like you to be the one to reveal it. Why don't we cut the chitchat and start-"

Akira then ran to charge at him immediately...

"...doing this shit!"

From behind Akira, his shadow suddenly stood up and grabbed his shoulders.

"You're just a stupid brat."

The shadow, then pulled it's arm, and turned it into a tin triangle shaped figure and was about to pierce Akira's back... when...

A shield was constructred by Akira behind him suddenly and he then, spun around to turn at the shadow, and tried punching it... but his hand just went pass it.

'WHAT THE...?'

"When the fuck did shadows become touchable, you retard?"

Akira, then jumped away and ran at the villain again, spawning 2 shields on his forearms.

He now has green glowing branch like lines in both his forearms, and his left eye.

'Tch- I need to strike him down and avoid the shadow.'

Akira closed in on the guy, planning to punch him, when...

*Stab*

"GAAAAAHH!"

Akira was suddenly stabbed by the shoulder.

"I can manipulate my shadow too, you know.", the villain said with an evil grin.

A shadow, suddenly formed before Akira and the villain at the right time and stabbed him with it's pointy arm.

'SHIT!'

Akira jumped out to pull the shadow's arm away from his bleeding shoulder, when he suddenly, turned around and looked at his shadow from behind him quickly forming into a walking figure as well.

'TWO SHADOWS?'

Akira then turned at the other shadow, trying to smash it with his right arm's shield by swinging it from the side.

His forearm just slipped through the shadow.

"I told you it's meaningle-"

Suddenly, just as Akira's right forearm's shield passed through the shadow, he flung the shield, and made it circle around quickly like a boomerang, planning to hit the villain from the side.

'YOU'RE DONE FOR, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!', thought Akira.

...but before the shield could reach the villain, the shield's shadow suddenly formed into a person's figure and took a hold of it. He looked at the shield before it could reach him and stopped it by controlling it's shadow.

He then turned at Akira again.

"You bra-"

*BAM!*

Akira smashed his right arm's shield on the villain's face.

"AAAUUUUUGHHH!"

*Stab*

Suddenly, behind Akira, a shadow stabbed him at the side of his waist.

"UUHH!"

Akira then jumped away and ran behind the villain.

The villain, seeing this, looked at him, and was planning to control the shadow behind him when...

Akira suddenly spawned his green glowing lines connecting to the ground the villain was standing on.

He jumped away immediately to avoid this, when-

*BAM!*

Akira ran at him and punched him again on his face, pushing him away.

"Heh, I get your ability now.", Akira said with a confident grin, as he held onto his bleeding left shoulder.

Akira then made some distance between them and flung a shield at his direction, he then ran away to hide from his sight.

"YOU FUCKER!"

The villain started running the other way from Akira and his shield as he kept his eyes at Akira.

'Now to control his shado-'

*KUG!*

Akira has been cancelling and manipulating his three shields around the cave.

While he made a shield follow him and ran to the side trying to look for an opening to punch him. He spawned another shield at the direction the villain was running at and tripped him.

"You're done for."

Akira ran to the villain who was down on the ground and canceled his shields.

He then casted back his shields on his left and right forearm and his back, and jumped at the man, pushing him down on the ground.

"You can't use your shadow manipulation ability, unless you look at the shadow, meaning if I made multiple targets in different places for you, you won't stand a chance.", Akira said with a serious expression.

The villain was lying down on the ground with him facing down on it.

Akira then pushed the villain's head to the ground to prevent him from using his ability.

"Why the fuck did you come here? What the hell were you planning?", asked Akira with an irritated tone.

"..."

The villain kept quiet as if he didn't even listen to Akira's question.

"ANSWER ME, IF YOU DON'T WANT ME TO BREAK YOUR GODDAMN SKULL!", Akira screamed at him.

"...you disgusting piece of..."

'What?'

Suddenly, from all over the villain's body, dark violet smoke emerged.

"GET YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF ME!"

*BOOOOOOMM!*

Suddenly, a storm of dark energy, exploded from the villain and shot Akira away.

"GAAAHH!!", Akira screamed as he was pushed away to the cavern walls.

'Dammit! What the fuck is...?'

The villain from earlier, suddenly stood up... and dark violet liquid, quickly flowed from his the top of his body.

'Huh...?'

The liquid slowly covered his whole body... until finally, he turned pitch black ...and as he turned around and looked at Akira... Akira then realized...

'He merged himself...with his shadow...?'

From the the top of the black figure, suddenly emerged parts of his face.

His eyeballs, nose and mouth, showed up.

He looked like a disgusting abomination.

"...Why don't we play again?", he said with a distorted voice and with his dismembered mouth showing an evil grin.

______________________________________

"Sirs, ma'ams! Xtinct-sama is missing!", a really pale sexy nurse with thin eyes and a mole at the right side of her right eye, suddenly opened the door to the teachers' faculty room and told them.

"Why does this have to happen now?", said the dark skinned teacher.

"Don't worry, I think I can fix this.", said the man in a green military like robot suit, charger.

The teachers started chatting with each other.

"Should one of us leave and look for him?"

"X-tinct-sama won't probably do anything reckless."

"Where could he have gone?"

"I believe he's probably just observing the students. He wouldn't burden them especially now that they're giving it they're all trying to give their all to impress him.", Kana stated.

"We should all just wait until the technical problems are fixed and take appropriate measures later.", she continued.

*Riiiinnngg*

Kana's phone suddenly rang.

"...Sorry, I have to take this. Excuse me.", she excused herself from the room and exited, while pulling her phone from her pocket.

"What is it..?", she asked the caller.

...

Kana's eyes widen as she heard what the person on the phone said.

"Escaped villains...?", she said with worry in her eyes.

______________________________________

The black shadow with dismembered face parts stood there.

"You seem a little far away, Ishikawa Akira... Why don't we..."

The shadow suddenly stretched it black dark violet-ish arms towards Akira.

"Tch-", Akira jumped away to the left avoiding the arms.

"Get to know each other!"

The arms suddenly moved, following Akira as he ran, circling to the cave, planning to charge at the villain's back.

He kept running, while being followed by the arm and lunged at the villain's back, spawning a shield on his right arm, planning to bang the villain's head with the shield.

As Akira, jumped and shot his fist...

A third arm suddenly spawned on the villain's back and became like a fist.

*BAAAM*

"GAAAAHHHH!"

Akira spawned a shield in front of him as he was punched away by the third shadow arm and was shot to the cave's wall.

"A shadow can be in any form, don't you know?"

Suddenly, the shadow turned it's arms into black blades and stretched it about to hit the shaken Akira.

He then suddenly, slid his body out of the way while creating an x with his two arms.

He didn't notice though... that a third and fourth black arm was stretched and aimed at him right after.

*Crack*, the barrier on his right forearm cracked as the arms broke through.

"AUUUUGHHH!", Akira was suddenly stabbed near his stomach, and the fourth arm slightly wounded his neck.

"SHIT!"

Akira pulled out the arm, crawled and ran away again, planning to go behind the villain, with his hands on his wounded waist.

'I need to take him my surprise!...but I need to get closer to spawn my shield next to him. He's too-'

"Boo!"

The villain suddenly showed up beside him.

'How did he...?'

He saw that the villain stretched out it's legs and jumped a large distance to close in on him.

'SHIT! HE'S NOT EVEN GIVING ME TIME TO HEAL!'

"Bye bye.", the villain said while his dismembered mouth showed an evil grin.

The villain then punched Akira with it's second arm and pushed him away.

*BAAAAMM*

"GUUUHHHHH!"

The villain immediately closed in on Akira who was cornered at a wall and combined all it's shadow arms forming a triangular piercing shadow blade.

"Seems, like you won't be the next heir after all."

'...Tch-!'

"Farewell, Ishikawa Akira.", he said with an evil grin.

*TANG!!*

The villain's strong attack made a strong metal sound, as if it was blocked by something.

'...Huh?', the villain then thought.

"YOU!"

"It finally worked...but I can't believe this is what it'll look like.", said Akira.

"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU...?", the villain screamed as he saw Akira's right forearm.

Akira's forearm, had a green thick gauntlet on with sharp thick claws at the fingers as if it was both a knight's handguard and a beast's nails.

He had green brightly glowing branch lines from both his right arm and his left eye and his gauntlet.

"Heh."

[Suddenly, Akira's arms glowed a bright green light as his green branch lines showed up.

'Shoot that bullet out without using another bullet and...'

A flash of green light emitted and suddenly...

'TRY TO SHIT OUT THAT ENERGY-'

Akira clenched his muscles and the green light flashed inside the simulator area.

"..."

Akira's arm just glowed and nothing happened.

"What? What the hell did...?"

"You didn't make an image of what you're planning to create. To put it simply... I created my air blast by thinking, I wanted to release the wind in a certain direction, and shoot out a strong force...

Without an image of what you plan to do, you're ability's basically made out of nothing.", Akio explained.

"Then...what about I do it again, but think of an explosion or something?"

"It probably won't work, since your ability's basic description, is basically just the creation of barriers. You can maybe change the shape of the barrier, like what you've been doing. Creating parts of the barrier and using them as shields. How about you just focus on creating a stronger, more effective shield something that can hold up more to my attacks."

'...

...but that's not what I want.', Akira thought.

'Up until now, I've fought against strong people, like Keima and Kazuki... If the environment and the people around me weren't there, I would've lost inmediately. What I want now, isn't just a stronger shield...

...I want-']

'-A powerful weapon.', thought Akira.

[They all have been trained thoroughly for stuff like this.", Sir Knight explained.

Akira looked at his armor and stared at it with all seriousness

'If I wanted a weapon, I couldn't just throw away my defense behind. I've been relying on my shields for so long. If I suddenly focused on my offense and forget about my defense, I wouldn't stand a chance.']

["Whatever it is, it ain't gonna work on my blade ha-"

'A blade isn't bad, except if it stuck to whoever you landed a hit on, my mobility would be at a disadvantage.']

[The tired looking boy suddenly showed a large hammer on his right hand, spun around before hitting the shield, and smashed it with his hammer breaking it .

"Weak.", he said.

'I focus more on using my fists when fighting, a weapon that utilizes my hand strength and mobility would be the perfect thing.']

[The other sixth year suddenly spawned ten ropes from his fingertips and pulled himself back.

"Don't underestimate your senpais, kouhai."

'...He's utilizing, his fingers...?']

'A protective piece of equipment and a weapon. Since I focus on using my arms more, I should create an armguard. If I can somehow weaponize it...

Something that can utilize my mobility, protect my arms while doing it, and lets me deal more damage.

Just like a knight and a beast formed together...

I created... this.', thought Akira.

'Defender's claw.'

The villain decided to pull his shadow arms and separate them targeting him again.

"So what if you can protect against my attacks now? That's just a small piece of equipment compared to all this!", he grinned as he struck four shadow piercing arms to Akira.

Akira immediately ran in, pulled up his hand, and sliced the first shadow arm, he then jumped to the side, and from the top, he slashed the second one.

"Tch-", the villain seeing this, decided to make some distance.

Akira ran after him.

He then stopped and struck three shadow arms that he merge together as a large piercing one and struck Akira.

Akira pulled up his gauntleted right arm, and blocked the attack with his forearm while pushing his right arm with his left hand.

Suddenly , behind his back, another shadow arm struck while he was blocking that large one.

"DIE!", the villain screamed with an evil grin.

Akira then immediately slashed at the large piercing arm and blocked the other arm with his gauntlet.

*tug*

The villain's eyes widen, when Akira...

suddenly, pulled his shadow arm with his gauntleted arm and brought him closer to Akira.

"This the end!"

Akira screamed as he charged at him while pulling up his gauntleted hand.

He didn't notice though, that a fifth arm was suddenly made by the villain.

The fifth arm was made so thin and pointy, and was aimed at Akira's forehead as he was jumping to strike at him.

'SHIT!'

"LOVE BEAM!"

Suddenly, a pink beam of hearts struck the villain.

The shadow arm that was pointed towards Akira, suddenly loosened and pointed to the ground, as Akira...

"TAAAKKKEEEE TTTHIIIISSS!!!", screamed as he slashed his claws on the villain.

Green smoke appeared from the claw while it hit the villain and pushed him to the ground with great force.

"GGGAAAAAHHH!!!", the villain suddenly changed back into human form, with a large slash in his chest, and fell on the ground... finally... unconscious.

"We... did it.", Akira said as he knelt to the ground, tired. His gauntlet and energy nerves then suddenly disappeared.

"AKIRA-SAMA!", Ai called on to Akira who fell to the ground.

As Ai went in, a figure who's eyes were focused on them outside the cavern they were in, walked away.

______________________________________

"A mask?"

"Yeah! That way I'd be an amazing superhero!"

A young Akira, who was about 5 years old, was seated in front of a cheap looking wooden table.

In front of him, is a man that had similar features as him, but looked older.

He was wearing a brown long sleeve shirt, and had a wry smile on his face.

Akira was wearing a simple t-shirt and shorts.

"I'm not really good at making artsy stuff. How about you just ask your mother?", the man asked.

"No, no. It has to be you, dad! A great superhero should be wearing the armor left by his father, that way I'd look like that guy I watched in the anime yesterday!", the young Akira said with excitement.

"Are you just doing that to hide those angry looking eyes of yours?", his dad asked.

"If you are, you shouldn't do that, Ra-chan. You should love the way you look.", he continued.

"No! I need it to make me a great superhero! If everyone knows my real identity, I'm not a superhero then.", Akira replied.

"Hmm... how about I make you a cape too then?"

"Really!?", Akira's usually glaring eyes suddenly looked at his dad with stars.

"I can cut a curtain to make it look like your cape."

"Thanks, daddy!"

"Don't worry about it.", replied his father a gentle smile.

He then put his hands on top of Akira's head and rubbed his hair.

"I'm sure you'll become an amazing hero.", he continued.

______________________________________

"Raaaaaaa-chhhhaaaaann! Goooodd mmooorrrnninnggg!!", Akiko screamed as he tried to glomp Akira, who was lying on his back.

*BAAM!*

Akira immediately kicked her face away.

"Morning, mom.", Akira said as he stretched, having just woken up.

He was half-naked on his bed seemingly a bit tired.

Akiko, who was pouting, then noticed, the scars on Akira's body.

"Ra-chan, did you get too heated up in yesterday's battle? Maybe you should rest for a while.", Akiko, worriedly asked him.

"No, it's fine."

Akira then touched his shoulder wound and slightly healed it.

'This is just how much I could heal today, huh?', Akira thought as he looked at his shoulder.

He then turned his eyes back to his mom...

Who for some reason...

Showed fear in her eyes.

"M-mom? is something wrong?", asked Akira.

She then realized what expression she was wearing and then turned his back to Akira while fixing her face.

"Ah- I just remembered I might burn the eggs I was cooking. I'm gonna go down.", she replied with a cheery tone.

"What...?", Akira wondered.

______________________________________

"Here's to Flint Ishigaki, for defeating a B class villain with his own power!", Kana said smiling while handing over an award to the student.

A guy with brown kempt hair, held what seems to be a recognition award on his hand with a sad and serious expression.

Everyone was inside an auditorium, watching as the sixth years' top savior, was given an award for defeating a B class villain who was able to break in school.

The teachers looked kind of proud of him, while Kana looked as if her smile was stiff.

Students from all over the place where whispering to one and another and chatting about stuff about this event.

"Well, that's pretty obvious, a villain like that is nothing against the sixth year's top savior."

"Did they say a villain broke in school? How did that happen?"

"It creeps me out how the villains were able to break in this heavily guarded university."

"Good thing we still have strong students that can beat villains if one ever gets pass the security."

Akira was watching the event intently with a calm look on his face.

"That sixth year sounds really strong. I would've just given up once I saw a villain.", Izanagi who was sat next to Akira, said.

"Y-yeah.", Akira who seemed to be a but nervous replied.

Kana then went up to the podium and addressed the situation to all of the students.

"They'd probably increase their guard inside the campus too especially places where there sight is probably the lowest. Since that villain came in from under the ground, the school will probably be more strict and stuff about patrolling the grounds.", Akira told Izanagi.

Izanagi, hearing this, showed a confused look at Akira.

"What's up?", asked Akira.

"...

Nothing."

Right next to Akira, was Ai who seemed to kept looking at Akira with a worried expression.

The others were kind of quiet as well.

They would look at Akira and shift their eyes to another place, or they would look down or someplace else.

'A B class villain, huh?'

______________________________________

"Next week, we'll be having a written quiz about the stuff you learned from all the activities you did the past months including yesterday's tag competition.", Sir Knight announced.

"A written quiz? All of us already failed the tag competition except for Inoue, and now we're gonna suffer this?", said Kami.

"Come on, sir, can't you give us a bit of leeway. Our arms still hurt from yesterday's game.", said Izanagi.

"It's just a logical and situation reaction quiz. Don't worry, it won't be hard.", Sir Knight said as he showed a thumbs up.

'''''''That's what you said about our other activities this past month.''''''', the students thought.

"So, for now... I'll be reviewing you all lessons that you need to keep in mind for the quiz."

"""""""""""Ehhhhh...""""""""""", the students pessimistically said.

______________________________________

"Yo, Akira. Let's eat lunch together.", Kami invited him with a big smile.

Takumi was behind him looking a bit serious although he still kept his deadpan expression.

Keima stood up as well, and seemed to want to be included as well.

"I'm gonna join you guys in the cafeteria as well.", Keima said.

"Sure. Akira, you're coming, right?", asked Kami.

"Actually...", Akira showed a serious expression.

______________________________________

"Come in."

Kana said as Akira came in the office.

"Aren't you gonna eat? It's your lunch time. You should savor those meals you eat with your friends."

"It's about the villain."

Kana kept quiet for a moment, then stared at Akira with a serious expression.

"What about him?", she asked.

"Let's just cut it straight. I left the area and asked the sixth years to help the senpai who was lying unconscious in the caverns. I then told them that it was him who defeated the villian, but..."

"So it was you..."

Akira kept quiet then stared onto his right hand.

"I kind of knew you had something to do with this...but with the number of students involved in this activity, and with the way the villain was defeated, I wasn't really sure... but I did remember, before our footage cut short, it was you and a few sixth years who were near the area.", explained Kana.

"I didn't want people to know that it was me who defeated the villain, because-"

"A sixth year savior, who's at the top of his ranks, being defeated by a villain that a first year support defeated... sounds very humiliating. What's more is that some may even question our choice of putting you into the support course if you were able to defeat a B class villain by yourself. X-tinct-sama was here as well, and if he heard about you, he'll be more fascinated by you than Ishigaki-san, who's supposed to be given a direct conversation with the top savior himself."

["Akira-sama? Why did you tell them that senpai defeated the villain? It was you who-"

"This is for the best, love girl. I don't really want to be the center of attention, and besides, it'll probably tarnish that senpai's reputation if people found out that I defeated the villain he couldn't.", Akira explained to Ai, as Akira helped him walk out of the forest.

"Our senpai are probably gonna call the authorities. Let's just leave everything to them.", Akira continued.

Ai just showed a worried expression to him and they continued on their tracks.]

"...Yeah, well now that you understand, can I ask you-"

"Before you ask me any questions, I'd like to ask you first, how did you defeat him?", Kana scooted her chair closer as if curious about what happened.

"Akio...taught me how to control my energy flow. My shields were made slightly fragile because I had a hard time manipulating my own energy... He taught me how to create an image with my energy, and form a new skill. I was able to create a claw gauntlet, that was somehow harder, and stronger than my barrier skill.", explained Akira.

"A claw? So you were actually the one who fought and defeated the villain. He was found with long thin wounds, so I deduced it was a bladed ability user.", she replied.

"...but you're ability's supposed to just be a barrier. That's supposed to be just it. How did you make a weapon?"

"I don't really know why... I was just pissed at how, everytime I fought someone strong, I always need to run away from them. I wanted to be able to not only defend against their attacks. I wanted to fight back. I just realized suddenly...a new piece of equipment showed up on my hand."

"...An equipment type skill... not a barrier skill. You usually use shields to fight, which were part of the barrier you used the first time itself. The weapon you made, was somehow manifested from your desire to 'fight'... It can be either that you manifested a new ability...or your barrier skill, isn't just a simple defense skill.", Kana explained.

"This ability, if it were true, more heroes from the first years will scout you as their partners for the SS tournament.", she continued.

"I still haven't adjusted to it yet. Back then, I was in a rush, but it immediately drained the last of my energy quickly so I rushed into fighting him.", Akira explained.

"It seems like you'll need more training to use that ability.", Kana replied.

"And now to the real topic of our conversation...", she continued.

"I-"

"No."

Kana immediately rejected Akira before he could even say anything.

"What...!? ...but I haven't even said anything!"

"I know what you're thinking, Akira. You want to join in our investigation about the incident, don't you? Leave it to the professionals. You were able to defeat a real villain yesterday...but there are lots more vile and strong villains out there that only heroes in league with X-tinct-sama could handle."

"...but the villain said something important! I brushed it away because I really didn't want to interact with a villain who injured someone, until I give him a piece of mind... but I can't just stay here without being informed of those things!"

Kana looked at Akira's eyes and asked him:

"What did he say to you?"

"...My dad being in some sort of evil organization and me and Akio being the heirs of it. He also called their group 'The Resurrection", or something."

Kana's eyes widened as she heard this.

"The Resurrection...!?"

Kana then stood up as she heard that.

"Auntie?"

"Akira, we're done here. Go eat your lunch."

"...but-"

"Leave."

Kana showed an expression of anger and told Akira to leave.

"...", Akira just kept quiet hearing this, and decided to leave the office.

______________________________________

Avaron, Eiko, Megumi, Keima, Takumi, Kami, Ken, Mitsuko and Ai, who seemed to be waiting outside of the principal's office was suddenly seen by Akira as he went out.

"Yo, Akira.", Kami said with a serious expression.

"What are you guys...?"

"...Sorry, Akira-sama.", Ai who looked a bit guilty apologized to him.

"Why? Is something wrong?"

Takumi then walked up to Akira with a serious expression in his eyes.

"Akira. Remember when we all ran away and split up with you during tag?", Takumi said.

"Yeah... Are you guys angry about me bossing you around yesterday?"

Takumi shaked his head from left to right as if telling him that it wasn't it.

"We were all desperately hanging on, fighting sixth year students to keep us from losing the competition. We knew both of you were in a disadvantage, but we let you be because we want to get ten points no matter what... but as we hid there, I used my eagle eye ability to keep an eye on you too, trying to make sure you guys are still on the game, and if we could somehow save you guys later...

I saw you fought that villain, I saw you become pierced and struck by his attacks, but we were all too busy trying to win this stupid competition.", Takumi explained.

'They...knew?'

"Kawai-san and Sasaki-san wanted to save you guys and help you immediately, but we all hesitated... We were so focused on not losing the competition, that you almost died at that dark and shady place.", Takumi continued, still with his deadpan expression but with a tone filled with guilt.

"You... you almost... got... killed, trying to protect a senpai you don't even know. While all of us were just trying our hardest to not get tagged.", Megumi who always seem to be cheery and happy, looked like she had slight tears on her eyes.

"If Abe-san didn't run in and use her ability..."

[Akira screamed as he charged at him while pulling up his gauntleted hand.

He didn't notice though, that a fifth arm was suddenly made by the villain.

The fifth arm was made so thin and pointy, and was aimed at Akira's forehead as he was jumping to strike at him.

'SHIT!'

"LOVE BEAM!"

Suddenly, a pink beam of hearts struck the villain.

The shadow arm that was pointed towards Akira, suddenly loosened and pointed to the ground as Akira...]

'I would've been dead.'

Kami, who was usually quirky and deviant, walked up to Akira, with a guilty face, and bowed to him.

"""""We're sorry!""""", everyone... except for Keima who had his arms crossed, bowed to Akira.

Akira felt a bit awkward, but saw their conviction.

"Well, how about you guys just treat me to a meal or something?", Akira replied.

The others felt a little confused, but pulled themselves up to look at Akira.

He was scratching his head looking kind of embarassed feeling the awkward atmosphere in the room.

"That way, you won't have to worry about paying me back anymore.", he continued, with a slightly bashful face.

Kami, seeing this, then showed a genuine smile, put his arms on Akira's shoulder and told him:

"Sure! I'll be treating you to the best ramen shop around here!"

"Would you like some sushi?", asked Takumi.

"A-A-Akira-sama! I can cook something for you too!", Ai nervously butted in

"M-me too!", Koka who seem to be competing with the others, with a slight blush on her face said.

Megumi had a smile on her face as she wiped away her tears.

She looked at Akira who was showing an incredulous expresson, and decided to join in as well.

The others were all suggesting meals and dishes they'd treat Akira as they stood there being as awkward as normal.

Keima just watched the scene and showed a slight smile.

When suddenly...

"CAN YOU STUDENTS KEEP QUIET AND GET AWAY FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE'S DOOR!", Kana peeked on them with a slightly irritated expression.

"Shit! The principal! Let's run!"

"We're sorry, we didn't mean to make so much noise."

Seeing this, they all ran away except for Avaron who started apologizing to Kana.

"Uh...ok. Sure. I understand. No, you don't need to write an apology letter.", Kana was a bit overwhelmed as Avaron apologized to her with all her might.

'Well, at least he's enjoying himself.', she then thought.

_____________________________________

"So, it's my turn!", Kami said with a big smile on his face as he walked down the stairs with Akira, Keima and Takumi.

"I'll be sure to get you the best ramen ever!", Kami continued.

"It better be. If it's not, you'd have to treat me again.", Akira replied with a teasing expression.

"Ishikawa Akira, rightsy?", a violet haired guy who had a butterfly hairpin on his hair and wore the same uniform as Akira as the others suddenly approached him with a smile.

Beside him was a girl with medium light blue hair, with glasses and a deadpan expression on her face.

"Sup? You want something?", Akira showed him a bit of intimidation as if the guy was picking a fight.

"Hey, I'm not looking for a fight here. I'm Kagayaku Eiji. A first year savior course student.", he said with a big smile.

"Do you need something?"

"The truth is... the first year's savior group battles will start soon. You guys from the support course will soon watch each one of our classes' groups fight. With that, both of us will know what each student's ability is. I saw your fight the past month, and I thought you're really strong. I'm just trying to give you an invitation, to partner up with me."

'Oh yeah...the SS tournament, huh? I almost forgot about that.'

"Someone from the first year's class asked me to be his support for the tournament.", Kami said.

"Me too, when I was eating in the classroom, a first year savior student came to me and asked me to team up. Well, if I were you I'd think about it before accepting his offer immediately. He might look reliable but he could actually just be some idiot who eats dust when he sees a stadium.", Keima commented.

"Hey!", Eiji said with a slightly annoyed expression.

"I actually forgot about that. Whatever, I'll think about it."

"Yeah, I'm sure you'd be amazed by my ability soon.", he said while still showing that big smile.

"Bye-bi!"

"Uh...yeah."

"Bye, bro.", the light blue haired girl said while looking at Takumi.

Their eyes widened a little as they heard this.

"Your sister?", asked Kami.

Takumi just nodded with a deadpan expression.

"It's quite obvious actually.", commented Kami.

As the student turned around and walked away, he suddenly bumped on to another student.

*kug*

He was slightly pushed away as the student intentionally bumped his shoulder on him.

"Uh! What's with you, Jun..!?", Eiji, asked with a slightly irritated expression.

"Weaklings like you shouldn't be sticking their noses on stuff already belonging to others, Kagayaku.", the first year student, with a blond undercut, replied to him.

"You don't own anyone, Taiho-san.", Takumi's sister told him with a deadpan expression.

"Tch-", he ignored their rants and walked up to Akira.

The two then continued walkind, ignoring the guy.

'How did people like him get admitted in this school. Don't tell me he also saved a lot of people like Inoue.'

Akira and the other three looked a little annoyed with what he did.

"Yo, team up with me in the SS tournament.", he commanded with a confident smile.

"I've seen you fight and I heard lots about you. You're shield ability is good at defending, and your healing would really do me a huge favor in battle.", he explained still keeping that confident smile.

"..."

Akira then patted him at his right shoulder, showed him a slight smile, walked passed him and turned back at him, with his right hand carrying his briefcase on his shoulder and his other hand in his pocket, and while still keeping that slight smile, he waited for a moment, inhaled and told him...

"Go fuck yourself."

Kami, Keima snickered at this while Takumi showed a look of respect at Akira although still keeping that deadpan expression.

Kami walked up to Jun, patted his shoulder too, and told him:

"You heard him.", while still snickering.

They all then walked pass him and left the school while he stood there petrified.

His expression showed disbelief as he remembered what Akira just told him.

[Go fuck yourself.]

'THAT FUCKING RETARD! HE REJECTED ME? HE HASN'T EVEN SEEN ME FIGHT YET. I'M GONNA BREAK THAT SHIT'S FACE WHEN-'

He showed an enraged expression, and looked like he's wants to punch the next person who comes in front of him... when...

He suddenly saw, a familiar person's figure.

'Is that...?'

He was walking down the stairs reading a book with a serious expression on his face.

He walked pass Jun, but he suddenly took hold of his shoulder.

Noticing this, the student turned back to look at Jun with a slightly irritated expression.

"Kazuki Inoue...", he said as he smiled an evil grin.

"Be my partner.", he continued.

I'll be making an extra chapter about when Megumi started calling Akira by his first name.

I want to focus not only on action but the harem too so...

Yeah.
