Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

Coming out of the bathroom inside, Kirihara Shizuku naturally walked to Stella's side, washing her hands.

“Swish——”

As if there was some special sound effect, Stella's face flushed red.

This feeling of redness peeking through the white was like a ripe red apple, extremely adorable.

“Th-There's been progress, right…”

Whenever these things were mentioned, Stella felt that strange sensation from earlier welling up in her chest again.

She quickly shook her head, shaking out all the wild thoughts that were disturbing her mind.

“Forget it, I think I should be fine on my end.”

At least she was now certain that Okazaki Sei was definitely interested in her.

“What about you, Shizuku?”

She was very grateful to Kirihara Shizuku right now.

Even though her initial impression of Stella wasn't very good.

After all, this involved ethical concepts, and even though Okazaki Sei had told her that every country had its own circumstances, and while it was rare in Japan, it wasn't completely nonexistent.

But she still found it difficult to accept this kind of thing between relatives.

But she couldn't deny that Kirihara Shizuku, with her distorted view of love, had given her very effective advice last night and today.

Without Kirihara Shizuku's help, she felt that it would have been difficult to advance so quickly.

“Me…”

Speaking of her own affairs, Kirihara Shizuku's voice suddenly became heavy.

“There's been no progress at all; Onii-sama is still resisting me.”

Stella's progress was very fast, and she could even see the light at the end of the tunnel.

But Kirihara Shizuku, who had just been alone with her beloved, had made no progress, except for taking advantage of her brother a little.

Whether she deliberately exposed herself or deliberately pressed her delicate body against her brother, she had not made her brother focus his desires on her.

“This…”

Stella suddenly had nothing to say.

Or rather, she didn't know what she could say.

Should she comfort Kirihara Shizuku?

She had no idea how to comfort her.

Honestly, being able to ignore Kirihara Shizuku's feelings for Kirihara Ikki was already the most she could do.

Encouraging Kirihara Shizuku to keep trying was beyond her capabilities.

It was at this moment that a girl with long black hair, bangs long enough to cover her right eye, wearing the Hagun Academy uniform, and with her head lowered, suddenly burst into the bathroom.

“Um, what's wrong?”

Although she was only facing away and her expression couldn't be seen clearly.

But Stella had already sensed a panicked emotion from her, and coupled with the fact that she was wearing the Hagun Academy uniform, Stella, who was always bursting with a sense of justice, couldn't help but ask this unfamiliar girl.

“Ah——”

The girl was immediately flustered by the sudden call.

She turned her head in terror, but after seeing Stella's figure, she slowly calmed down.

“You are? Princess Stella?”

Although Stella was not wearing the Hagun Academy uniform, few people at Hagun Academy didn't know what Stella looked like, as it had been revealed early on during the school opening.

“Phew——”

Stella also breathed a long sigh of relief.

Now that she recognized her, things would be much easier.

“You can tell me anything; as a classmate, I will help as much as possible.”

“Bang bang bang bang bang bang——”

A violent knocking sound suddenly rang out from outside the door, and at the same time, a rather vile voice came.

“You rotten woman, get out here now.”

Chapter 073 Talent

What would you do if you encountered a very nasty person blocking the door?

Undoubtedly, even if it was none of your business, no one would want to get into trouble, and would honestly hide inside and wait for the storm to pass.

Of course, this is what ordinary people would do.

“Classmate, what's your name?”

Stella didn't seem too anxious; although the person outside didn't have a very good attitude, they were actually restraining their behavior.

Otherwise, such a fragile door could be kicked open with force, even by an ordinary person.

“I'm, I'm sorry.”

“I didn't introduce myself earlier; I'm Ayatsuji Ayase, a third-year student in Class 1 at Hagun Academy.”

The girl, whose half of her eye was covered by her bangs, quickly bowed in a flustered manner and introduced herself in a soft voice.

“Bang bang bang——”

The violent knocking continued to sound.

“It seems now is not the time to ask about the details.”

“Senior, I'll just ask you one question; this isn't your fault, is it?”

Originally, this senior, called Ayatsuji Ayase, seemed very flustered, but upon hearing Stella's question, her face was immediately filled with anger.

“It's all that… guy's fault… he harmed my… father, he harmed me…”

“Even though my father is… already like this, he still won't let us go…”

Anger, grievance, and even the moisture in the eyes of the girl named Ayase could be seen.

“I see, then let's go out and resolve this matter first.”

“No matter what, we can't allow Blade Arts users to run wild in the streets.”

“That's right.”

Kirihara Shizuku put her hand on the doorknob, and her deep blue ice eyes instantly became a bit deeper.

“We can't let him cause more chaos.”

She hated the Kirihara family.

Just like her brother had escaped from this caged home, she now had no good feelings for that home.

But she had a high sense of self-awareness as a daughter of the Kirihara family.

She knew what she could do and what she should do at this time.

With a slight twist of her wrist, the door was opened smoothly, and at the same time, a dark shadow fell directly.

Kirihara Shizuku's eyes sharpened, her feet shifted, she dodged the attack that looked like a hand blade like a butterfly, and then raised her foot and kicked the shadow directly.

“Bang——”

The shockwave set off a sonic boom.

No one could have imagined that such a small body could unleash such power, kicking a man nearly four or five meters away.

“Tonro Academy?”

“Hagun Academy?”

Stella and the man on the opposite side said these two words almost at the same time.

On the opposite side, there were about ten people, wearing uniform carmine tops, all about seventeen or eighteen years old, standing at the door with fierce faces, two or three of whom were directly supporting the man who had just been kicked away by Shizuku.

The man at the head, about 180 centimeters tall, had tea-colored hair, and his fierce white eyes could be seen from under the brown sunglasses.

He was wearing a carmine top, loosely draped over his body, and the open part of his chest revealed a hideous tattoo.

“Kurashiki Kurando.”

Kirihara Shizuku frowned and directly spat out the name of the man at the head.

It was not surprising that Kirihara Shizuku could recognize this man's name, or rather, it would be abnormal for a student knight to not recognize this man.

After all, he was the eighth strongest in the previous Seven Star Sword Dance Festival and the current ace of Tonro Academy.

Normally speaking, this was a very troublesome character.

But that was only in relation to ordinary people and ordinary Blade Arts users.

It was definitely not the case for Stella and Kirihara Shizuku.

“Hmph, Ayatsuji Ayase, now you have helpers.”

The man named Kurashiki Kurando walked out under the crowd's support.

“Looks quite good.”

“What, are you going to rely on these two women to take back your family's dojo from me?”

Kurashiki Kurando didn't directly recognize Stella and Kirihara Shizuku's identities.

Although Stella and Kirihara Shizuku could be considered famous, one was a princess and the other was a descendant of the Kirihara family, they were only freshmen this year, and the school selection ranking battle had just begun.

People within the school might pay a lot of attention to them and learn about them.

But people outside the school might not, they only needed to pay attention to the six students who were selected to represent Hagun Academy a month later.

But this didn't mean that Kurashiki Kurando couldn't see the strength of Stella and Kirihara Shizuku.

At least, he could roughly sense their magic power, one with B-rank magic power and the other with A-rank magic power.

They were definitely not weaklings.

“No, they have nothing to do with me.”

Ayatsuji Ayase responded angrily, no longer standing behind Stella and Kirihara Shizuku, but taking a step forward.

“Damn woman, how dare you hit me.”

The man who had been kicked away by Kirihara Shizuku finally recovered.

That kick had almost knocked him unconscious, and his stomach was churning as if it were being turned upside down.

Mohican head hadn't been beaten in a long time.

Ever since he followed his boss, he hadn't been insulted like this in a long time, and now his anger was rising rapidly.

“Wrathful Sinking Great Axe.”

Mohican head suddenly jumped out of his companion's support, and the Twin-Bladed Long Axe Spiritual Weapon appeared directly in his hand, mercilessly and without hesitation, he slashed towards Kirihara Shizuku.

“Appear, Intetsu.”

The black iron katana appeared directly from a strange angle, while drawing a bright semicircle, the katana directly jammed into the connection between the axe blade and the axe handle.

“Onii-sama.”

Originally, Kirihara Shizuku had a face full of anger, but when she saw the man standing in front of her, she immediately turned to a happy expression.

“Bang——”

“Ah…”

“Bang——”

“Ah…”

There were two more consecutive screams that humans make when they are beaten.
