Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 67: Devour!

Chapter 67: Devour!

Lucky pervert.

This was an ability that was owned by every light novel protagonist.

When one opened the door, one would see a girl naked. When one walked, one would crash into a girl before one grasped the breast of the girl. When one walked on the stairs, a girl would drop as one suddenly had their face between the girl's pantiesmany more and many more.

At first, it was funny, but it started to get ridiculous with the passage of time.

However, without a doubt, this was an ability that everyone longed after, yet at the same time, he was also worried since, without the protection of the protagonist's halo, he might be reported to the police for sexual harassment.

Still, what surprised him as a lucky pervert was an ability that could be learned by him.

This ability might be ridiculous and probably innate, yet, strangely enough, it could be learned.

However, after understanding the concept of a lucky pervert, he realized that this lucky pervert was learnable.

Luck isn't just luck.

It isn't a pure and simple coincidence.

Instead, luck is everywhere, and it will come to the people who are prepared.

Suddenly, he wondered whether it was possible for him to make himself into a protagonist.

A man-made protagonist.

'Oh, it has become interesting!'

He looked at his system and wondered whether a connection to the next world existed, but the soft and warm feeling interrupted his thought. He looked below and saw Claudia hugging him tightly as if hugging a big teddy bear.

"...what are you doing?"

"I am trying to erase Julis's smell on you."

"...how obsessed are you with me?" He was speechless.

"I love you so much." Claudia showed a light smile, yet her expression was strangely serious.

Still, with how much she loved him, he realized that the protagonist's halo wasn't invincible. Instead, he could do something to defeat it.

He patted Claudia's head. "It's hard to walk like this. Come on. I want to fight my next match."

"Un."

She showed a bright smile at his acceptance, or perhaps he gave up. Either way, she wouldn't let him go since he was the only one for her.

Meanwhile, Julis, who had lost, dropped to the ground helplessly. She had expected this result, but when it really happened to her, she was unable to do anything.

'No, I can't give up!"

For her wish, she would do anything. She crawled up from the abyss desperately before she looked at the person who could give her a chance to achieve her dream.

---

The result of his duel with Julis was unexpected. She didn't stand a chance again him, or rather; he won this battle so easily while also helping her from being attacked.

Yet, this made them realize how strong he was and made them even more excited.

By then, his hunt was just unstoppable.

Whether it was students, teachers, or even spies from another school, all of them came to watch his fight.

No one was missing since they knew that they were about to see a legend who was about to be born in this school.

From a nobody that no one knew into the rank one that everyone could look up to.

Those, who could only dream, had already dreamt how amazing it was to be like him.

Strangely enough, no one hated him anymore. Instead, they just followed him like devoted followers that were about to see the miracle that their leader was about to perform.

Then, starting from Julis, he climbed up to the rank fourth and third. Those two were beaten by him as he was absorbing all the knowledge, skills, and abilities he could gain from his opponents.

Yet, the only thing which made him regret was that it seemed he couldn't learn the ability from the Orga Lux.

He had tried it with Irene's Gravisheath, but he couldn't.

Still, he met another of Orga Lux's wielders, Feardorcha O'Neill, who was ranked third in the Seidoukan.

Feardorcha wielded Snake Sword Ororomunt, which had the ability to inflict a bewitching poison on opponents.

Unfortunately, Tamazuki couldn't learn that ability, which made him helpless.

"What are you doing here, Julis?" Claudia asked.

"It's my choice to be whenever I want to be." Julis snorted at Claudia, then looked at Tamazuki. "Why don't you duel against Claudia? She is the rank 2nd!" After their duel, she had been following him, watching him, beating up the 4th and the 3rd rank so easily, which made her feel better, yet, when she saw that he skipped Claudia, who was the rank 2nd, she couldn't help but stop him.

"Why? Isn't it obvious?" Claudia smiled brightly as she hugged his arm intimately.

"....." Julis.

Tamazuki didn't even say anything since everything was told from Claudia's gesture.

Still, while everyone maintained their distance and didn't talk with him even though they wanted to, Julis approached him without hesitation as if it was normal.

However, this might be because Julis was a princess, so her selfishness was usually forgiven, so he didn't even bother to talk with her.

Seeing that Tamazuki simply ignored her, Julis stomped her feet annoyedly. She wanted to say something, but Claudia said, "Don't bother him. He is going to fight the rank 1st."

"I know."

Julis could only grumble on the side while, strangely enough, watching him in anticipation.

'1st rank of the Seidoukan...'

Even now, whether it was Julis, Claudia, and all the students, teachers, and staff were in disbelief since Tamazuki was about to achieve the highest position on the Seidoukan in just a mere day.

No, it hadn't been a day until he started his hunting, yet currently, he was ranked 3rd on the Seidoukan, which was only two positions away from the 1st rank.

As for why he didn't challenge Claudia, they could see how close he was with Claudia, so it was apparent, right?

"So, what kind of person is the 1st rank of the Seidoukan?" Tamazuki asked curiously.

"Well..." Claudia tapped her chin as if she was trying to think. "She is cute."

"...cute?" His lips twitched. "Was that an appropriate way to describe the rank 1st?"

"It is." Claudia smiled brightly. "You will be surprised when you see her."

"When you say that, I can't help but be curious, but I hope that this person can give me more fun."

"Oh? Is there a match that interests you?"

"Well, my match with that purple-haired guy was quite interesting. His technique is nice."

"But you have devoured that technique now." Claudia sighed helplessly, but her eyes were bright.

"Well, yes, I hope that I devour more."

"Oh... I am starting to feel sorry for Kirin Todou." Claudia shook her head helplessly, thinking that the technique which was mastered by Kirin Todou was going to be devoured by Tamazuki. However, she didn't stop him since she would support him no matter what.

"What are you talking about?" Julis frowned and asked curiously.

While Tamazuki ignored Julis, Claudia only smiled. "It's nothing." It was his secret; how could she tell it to anyone?

Julis snorted like she didn't care, but she just tried to hide her uncomfortable feeling since she could tell that she was bothering them.

Then, soon, they met the rank 1st of the Seidoukan.

"Kirin, hurry up! Don't be so slow and waste my time!"

A loud and angry voice of a middle-aged man sounded before a timid girl slowly followed from behind.

Still, the middle-aged man quickly noticed Tamazuki and the group, but he kept berating the girl, making them all show displease toward this middle-aged man.

"Hey, you...!"

Julis wanted to get angry at the middle-aged man, but Tamazuki appeared between the uncle and niece and stood between them, ignoring the middle-aged man and looking at the girl.

"Hey, do you want to have a duel?"
