Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 180 180

"What do you mean? Are you accusing me now? Even though you are the student council president of this school and the daughter of the current head of Fuyushima Temple, you can't speak without proof! I can report your words to the League of Heroes and make it an inter-organizational issue." Kirika narrowed her eyes and took Setsuka's words seriously.

"You can report it to your organization. After that, we'll see who gets punished and discover your true purpose in coming to this school. You wouldn't think that I believed your words, would you?" Setsuka replied calmly and provoked Kirika.

Kirika's face sank when she heard that. She tried to scare Setsuka but didn't expect the girl to take her seriously. If they brought the matter to their respective organizations, then the one who would be at a disadvantage would be Kirika.

The Holy Union and the League of Heroes would force him to reveal his purpose for coming to Suisei High School. Kirika couldn't say that she wanted to discover Tenku's true identity because she suspected the boy was a dangerous Realizer of a terrorist organization.

If Kirika had gotten Tenku's secret and discovered his identity, it wouldn't be a problem for her. But if she brought the matter now, it would corroborate Setsuka's accusations of her being a spy at Suisei High School. Kirika didn't do anything to the school but secretly watched one of the students. It can also be called spying.

The two girls glared at each other and created sparks between them. Satoru and the others could sense a dangerous aura from them, and they looked like they would attack each other at any moment. The temperature on the school roof dropped drastically, and the floor beneath their feet froze.

"Please believe in us, Miss Fuyushima! We have no malice at Suisei High School! We performed at the cultural festival at this school to fill our free time after our concert in Tokyo a few days ago. You can check it out if you don't believe me!" Fumiko suddenly appeared between the two girls and spoke frantically. She didn't expect that Kirika would seek a fight with Setsuka.

"Please calm down, Setsuka. If you two fight in this place, you will destroy this building and ruin our school's cultural festival. I know you are angry, but you must consider the impact on your surroundings. We still don't have any proof of it, so we can't act recklessly." Kaede patted Setsuka's shoulder gently and whispered.

She could feel the anger from her best friend and knew why. If it wasn't for Kirika, Setsuka, and Tenku could have spent their lunch together.

"Sigh…" Setsuka took a deep breath and tried to calm her emotions. She retracted her power, and the layer of ice on the floor melted.

"So what exactly do you want by coming to the school rooftop?" Setsuka asked Kirika.

"Didn't I already tell you? I'm just walking around this building and want to know more about this school. So you don't have to suspect me. Is the school rooftop a secret place, and I'm forbidden to come here?" Kirika asked in return.

Setsuka was silent for a while after hearing Kirika's reply. She wasn't stupid and knew her answer was a lie, but Setsuka couldn't do anything about it. If Setsuka forced her to answer honestly, there would be a fight on the school rooftop. It would alert the people inside the school building and ruin the cultural festival.

"Alright. Do what you want." Setsuka said and returned to their lunch spot. Kaede glanced at Kirika and then followed behind her.

After Satoru and the others set their feet on the school rooftop, they were surprised to see Setsuka and Kaede having a picnic there. Kirika raised her eyebrows when she saw Kohana among them. She thought Tenku would be on the school rooftop if the little girl were with them.

Kirika quickly scanned the place, looking for Tenku. She was sure the boy was hiding after hearing her voice.

"Why is this little girl with you? Where is the male student accompanying her?" Satoru pointed at Kohana and asked Setsuka. He was confused about why she was on the school rooftop and having lunch with Setsuka and Kaede. Satoru was sure that the little girl was the one who was with Tenku, but he didn't see that boy anywhere in the place.

Luckily, Kohana was still wearing her fox mask when she ate. Otherwise, Satoru would have recognized her, and the relationship between Tenku and Setsuka would have been revealed.

"We don't know where he went. We found this little girl in the corridor when Setsuka and I walked to the school rooftop for lunch. Because the little girl was hungry, we asked her to have lunch together." Kaede replied in place of Setsuka. On the other hand, Kohana nodded in response to her words. Her face was pale because she was worried about Tenku.

"I see." Satoru quickly believed it after he saw Kohana's expression.

"Where's that male student? Why isn't that boy with her?" Kirika approached Setsuka and asked with a gloomy face. At first, she was sure that Tenku must be hiding somewhere on the school rooftop because he couldn't jump from such a height.

No matter how strong that boy is, Tenku will break his bones if he dares to jump from a four-story building unless he has a Phantasmal Object that can make him fly. But Kirika had read some information about him and knew the boy didn't have that ability.

"Hmm? Which student are you referring to?" Setsuka tilted her head and looked at Kirika in confusion.

"The person I am referring to is the male student with the little girl." Kirika pointed at Kohana and said. She knew Setsuka was pretending in front of the others, but she also had to maintain her composure so the others wouldn't get suspicious when she asked about Tenku.

"I have already answered that question. I found this little girl lost in the school corridor. She was separated from the male student." Setsuka repeated her explanation.

Kirika frowned. She couldn't believe Setsuka's words. If Kirika couldn't get her answer, she just needed to ask the little girl directly. She was sure that Kohana would not lie.

"Little girl, where is your brother?" Kirika asked softly.

"I was separated from my brother in the corridor when he was chatting with his friend. I unintentionally removed my hand from him and was pushed away by the crowd of students and visitors. Sob... Sob..." Kohana covered her face with her hands and pretended to cry.

Kirika could see that the girl was sad, and it looked real. That was Kohana's true feelings after Tenku suddenly jumped off the school rooftop.

"I didn't know Kohana was good at acting." Kaede whispered.

"I also do not know. She had been watching dramas on television a lot in recent months. I think Kohana learned from that. But let's put that issue aside for now. The most important thing is to deal with her." Setsuka replied and approached Kohana.

"Are you satisfied after hearing that answer and making the little girl cry again? Kaede and I had taken great pains to comfort her after she separated from her brother, and now you've made her sad again." Setsuka said angrily and then hugged Kohana.

"Good job!" Setsuka whispered in Kohana's ear, and the other party nodded.

"I… I didn't mean to make her cry. I'm just asking where her brother went. You heard that too, didn't you?" Kirika panicked when she saw that. She didn't know how to comfort Kohana because she didn't have a little sister.

"I heard it. Besides, why are you asking about that student? Didn't I warn you to focus on your business and not disturb other people in this school?" Setsuka said seriously.

"Alright. I will tell you my purpose in looking for him. Honestly, I'm a little curious about that student. He refused to be my guide at school when he knew I was a popular idol.

On top of that, he was acting indifferent to me, like I was nothing. Of course, that would make me curious about him. Therefore, I wanted to find out what kind of person he was to treat me like that." Kirika answered, and Setsuka's face darkened after hearing that.

On the other hand, Satoru and Fumiko were stunned when they found out about it. Akihiko was angry because the girl he liked was curious about other men, but he couldn't do anything in that place.

"Ah, you don't need to worry because I don't have any other feelings for him because that's impossible. Do my words answer your question?" Kirika quickly added.

"Yeah, that answers my question." Setsuka nodded, but she didn't believe it. She said that because she was too lazy to argue with Kirika and wanted the girl to leave immediately.

"That's good. If there's nothing else you want to tell me, I'll take my leave now. I still have to go to the cafeteria." Kirika wanted to leave the school roof as soon as possible after not finding Tenku there.

"Nothing. You can go now." Setsuka replied flatly.

"Could you take me to the cafeteria now? I already feel hungry. Let's have lunch." Kirika turned her eyes to Satoru and said.

"Ah, I understand." Satoru quickly came to his senses after hearing her voice. After that, he led Kirika and the others toward the cafeteria.

Setsuka sighed after Kirika and the others left the school rooftop. She had suppressed her anger and refrained from attacking the girl. If it weren't for Kirika, she would still be enjoying her lunch with Tenku.

"Okay, she is gone. You don't need to be angry anymore. You can still have lunch with Tenku, just the two of you. We put that matter aside for now. Aren't you worried about his condition? He jumped from a four-story building. He must be seriously injured by now." Kaede reminded Setsuka about Tenku.

Then she rushed to the edge of the school rooftop and looked down at where Tenku had jumped. Kohana followed behind and also inspected the place. She knew that Tenku was strong and had saved her when a truck almost hit her. But moving swiftly and jumping from tall buildings is something completely different.

Surprisingly, Kohana and Kaede found no figure of Tenku anywhere and no bloodstains around where the boy should have landed.

"Where is he going?" Kaede muttered.

"You don't need to worry about him. He will be fine." Setsuka said confidently.

"What do you mean? He jumped from a four-story high building! So how could he be okay!? If you or I jumped from here, we might be able to avoid being seriously injured by using our Phantasmal Objects abilities, but we would still be hurt.

But Tenku is different. He had barely awakened his Phantasmal Object, and his abilities couldn't protect him from falling from such a height. So he must be seriously injured by now and going somewhere to treat it. Don't you like him!? Then why aren't you worried about him!?" Kaede raised her voice.

"Because I like him, I believe he will be fine." Setsuka smiled and continued eating her lunch. Her words left Kaede and Kohana confused. They could feel complete trust in Tenku when they heard her voice and saw her eyes.
