Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 176 176

"What are you saying?" Setsuka looked at Kirika and asked.

"I want to go to class 2-B because I'm curious about their casino." Kirika smiled playfully.

"Didn't I warn you to do your own thing and not disturb the others? Then why are you still following those two people?" Setsuka glared at Kirika and said in a deep voice.

"Huh? What do you mean? I don't follow anyone. I just have the same thoughts as them. So you can take it as a coincidence." Kirika replied calmly and then turned her eyes to Satoru.

"Am I prohibited from attending events at the cultural festival in this school?" Kirika wanted to confirm that she wasn't prohibited by the principal from attending the school's event.

"No, you can attend any event in this school during the cultural festival." Satoru replied awkwardly.

He worried Setsuka would be mad at him for thinking he supported Kirika. Since their conversation on the school grounds, Satoru felt they weren't on good terms. He was sure they didn't know each other, and this was their first meeting. Satoru did not see the reason behind the two girls' animosity.

Also, Satoru feels weird about Kirika's sudden decision to go to the casino in class 2-B. He thought that the girl had another reason to visit the place.

(What is her goal? Why do I feel that Kirika is following that male student? First on the school grounds and now on to class 2-B. I think that there is something odd about her purpose in coming to Suisei High School)

Satoru pondered and secretly watched the expression on Kirika's face.

"I know that the principal has given you the freedom to walk around this school, and there is no prohibition for you to go to the casino in class 2-B. But why do you have to do it now? Isn't that place over there, and you have passed it?

If you wanted to come to the casino, you should have been there and not kneeled here." Setsuka spoke and pointed at a classroom not far from their position.

Aside from Satoru, Fumiko was also secretly watching Kirika. She saw her face clouded when Setsuka reminded her of the previous incident. Fumiko knew it was too embarrassing for Kirika to kneel in front of other people. Fortunately, no one else saw what had happened to her.

Fumiko doesn't know Kirika's goal for attending the casino in class 2-B. As far as she knew, the girl did not like to gamble. But Fumiko had known Kirika for a long time and was sure that she wouldn't act without reason.

At first, Fumiko is confused about why Kirika suddenly asked her to accept the offer to perform at Suisei High School. But now she has found the clue, and it is Tenku.

Fumiko had to watch over the boy more because she didn't want anything wrong to happen to Kirika. She didn't know the relationship between the two. Still, Fumiko would prevent anything that would potentially become a scandal. If terrible news about Kirika reaches the ears of the media, it will damage her image and not be good for her career as an idol.

"I didn't know that place was a casino if it wasn't for that male student. Because of that, I'm thinking of visiting class 2-B now." Kirika tried to come up with an excuse. She was angry at Setsuka for reminding her of the previous incident. But Kirika had to keep her composure in front of her and not show her emotions.

"Are you blind? Can't you see the glittering signboard above the entrance of that place? If you want to make excuses, please come up with a more reasonable one. So you better not follow them anymore because I won't hesitate to kick you out of this school." Setsuka threatens Kirika.

"Is that so? You have to pay ten times as compensation if Suisei High school suddenly terminates the contract unilaterally. Besides, this school will become the talk of many people after I update my social media status, and its reputation will be damaged if my fans find out that you mistreat me." Kirika countered Setsuka's threat.

"You!" Setsuka was speechless because Kirika's words were valid. She has a huge fan base in Japan, and they would make a move if they found out that their idol was mistreated at Suisei High School.

Even if Setsuka uses the power of Fuyushima Temple, she won't be able to suppress Kirika's fans completely. In addition, it might have a bad impact on her family.

"If you don't want that to happen, don't get in my way. I have no intention of causing trouble in this school, so you don't have to worry." Kirika smiled in satisfaction when she saw Setsuka's reaction.

Setsuka was confused about what to do. She couldn't let Kirika get close to Tenku and didn't want Suisei High School's good name to be damaged by the actions of the girl's fans. So Setsuka only had one choice left. But she heard footsteps approaching them before she could reply to Kirika's words. When she turned around, Setsuka saw Kaede running towards her while breathing heavily.

"Are you okay, Setsuka? Have you met anyone who has released that pressure?" Kaede asked with concern.

Setsuka was surprised by Kaede's question because it resonated with the story she was making up. She wanted to answer but was interrupted again before opening her mouth.

[To the students and visitors inside the school building, you don't need to panic. We are currently investigating the origin of the disturbance. But we can guarantee the school is safe and you can continue your activities. Thank You!]

An announcement sounded over the loudspeaker, making the students and visitors quieter.

"I saw the person, but he left before I could get close to him and see his face." Setsuka answered thoughtfully, and her words made Kirika frown.

Kirika was sure the coercion came from Tenku, but the two said it came from a high-level Realizer outside the school building.

(Did the two work together to cover up that incident? No. Although I can't tell what the daughter from Fuyushima Temple thinks, I'm sure the girl who just came was telling the truth. In other words, a strong Realizer is roaming around this school!)

Kirika was deep in thought when she heard their conversation.

"I'm glad you're okay, Setsuka." Kaede sighed in relief.

"Let's put that matter aside for now. Can you help me tell the class representative that I can't go back to the cafe for a while?" Setsuka said.

"Huh? What happened? Where do you want to go?" Kaede was confused by her friend's sudden request.

"I wanted to visit the casino in class 2-B." Setsuka replied.

Those words brought Kirika back to her senses and made her face ugly. Setsuka decides to keep an eye on Kirika directly so she can quickly act when that girl makes a move on Tenku. She still didn't know her goal, but Setsuka wouldn't let her succeed.

"What?" Kaede was surprised when she heard Setsuka's answer. But she could tell Setsuka was doing it for a purpose when she saw her friend's expression.

"Alright." Kaede nodded and didn't ask any further. She took a smartphone from her maid uniform's pocket and sent a message to their class representative. After that, Kaede looked at Setsuka.

"In that case, I will also go with you. You've never been to a casino, have you?" Kaede smiled. She sent a message to the class representative asking for permission for Setsuka and herself. Kaede couldn't let her best friend come alone to such a place wearing a maid uniform.

"Hmm... Don't you still have a job as a maid at your cafe, Miss Fuyushima? The number of visitors to your class would have drastically reduced if you weren't there." Kirika tries to prevent Setsuka from coming to class 2-B.

"This is my business, so you don't need to worry about it. Don't you want to visit that place? In that case, we will go together. I'm also curious about the casino from class 2-B." Setsuka replied casually. Afterward, she made a gesture for Kirika to go first.

Setsuka didn't care what she said. She was sure that the maid cafe of her class would be fine without her and Kaede. After all, Setsuka only left that place for a while until she succeeded in keeping Kirika away from Tenku.

"Okay." Kirika snorted and turned her eyes to Satoru.

"We'll go to the casino together." Kirika's face turned gentler as she spoke to him.

(As expected of an idol. She can change her expression instantly)

Setsuka was amazed to see Kirika showing a different face when talking to other people.

"I understand." Satoru nodded, and he led the way to class 2-B. Kirika and the others followed closely behind.

On the way, Satoru was confused by the actions of the two girls. Satoru didn't know why Kirika and Setsuka suddenly wanted to visit the casino.

(Was it because of that first-year student? No way. He was just an insignificant, weak boy. So they can't act like that because of him. Was it because of the little girl he was with? Yes, that was the most plausible explanation. The little girl must not be the daughter of any random person)

Satoru tried to convince himself that Kirika and Setsuka had come to the casino, not for Tenku. When they arrived at their destination, Kirika and the others wrote their names in the visitor's book.

The student guarding the entrance went hysterical when he saw Kirika because he was one of her fans. After asking for autographs and a photo, the student allowed Kirika and the others to enter the casino.

When they stepped foot into the place, they were confused after seeing students and visitors gathered at one of the spots in the casino. On the other hand, Kirika and Setsuka didn't care about that, and they looked around for Tenku.

"What is going on?" Satoru asked one of the students at the casino.

"A first-year student and a little girl keep winning streaks at dice games. They have never lost once until now." The student replied weakly and quickly left the place as he had spent all his coins on gambling. He wanted to find a loan and try his luck again.

After hearing the student's words, Setsuka and Kirika quickly moved towards the crowd, and the others followed. the people in the place reflexively gave way to them. One was the student council president, and the other was a popular idol. The students didn't dare stand in the way of the two girls.

When Setsuka and the others arrived at the place, they were surprised to see Tenku and Kohana smiling broadly while holding buckets full of coins.
