Chapter 1838 - The Final Has Been Decided

Sis-Con with Dimensional Chat Group

While everyone cheered loudly and was full of enthusiasm with the victory of the First High School, both Shinkurou and Masaki had serious expressions on their faces.

"He's stronger than we thought," Shinkurou said.

Masaki didn't say anything and had a complicated expression when he saw how Haru dominated the entire field.

"I can't find much information about him, but from the match that we have seen before... It's just my guess, but I can tell that he has some kind of innate ability or perception magic that can detect anyone, and he should also be a long-range specialist like Saegusa Mayumi," Shinkurou said after he saw how precise and the distance that Haru could use his magic. He then looked at Masaki and said, "We'll have a lot of trouble fighting him if he's really a long-range specialist." It wasn't that he looked down on Masaki, but it was impossible for Masaki to use his family magic since it was too dangerous, and most of the distance of Masaki's magic wasn't that far.

"Isn't that interesting? Our only opponent is him." Masaki smiled and said, "We'll see him in the final later." He then stood up and said, "Let's go, George. They have dominated their opponent. We'll also do the same."

"......."

Shinkuro looked at Masaki, then smiled and knew that this was Masaki that he knew.

When Haru, Mikihiko, and Morisaki returned, everyone was being greeted. They were being congratulated since their victory was too overwhelming, showing the true power of the First High School.

When Haru talked with everyone, his hand was pulled by someone, and when he turned, he saw Mayumi was there. "What's wrong, Mayumi-senpai?"

"Haru, are you also a long-range specialist?" Mayumi asked while looking at Haru with a curious expression.

"Well, I can also use a long-range magic like you," Haru said.

"......" Mayumi.

Haru knew that someone like Mayumi was very rare since she could use her magic from a very far distance, but it wasn't that surprising, right?

"What's wrong, Senpai?" Haru asked.

"No - Nothing!" Mayumi shook her head, then looked at Suzune, who walked toward Haru as usual while bringing a towel and a warm tea on the tumbler.

"Good work," Suzune said.

"Thanks, Senpai," Haru said with a smile, looking at his lover, taking the tumbler and drinking it.

Suzune dried his sweat as usual while asking him about the match and whether he was confident with the next match.

Watching Haru and Suzune, Mayumi felt complicated, but she should smile and congratulate him since he had won. She was his senior, but hopefully, something might change in the future.

After Haru's match ended, they didn't come out from the tent and watched the match of the Third High School since they were sure that their only opponent was only the Third High School, considering Masaki Ichijou was in that team.

As expected, the momentum of Ichijou Masaki was huge, and they understood why he was called the Crimson Prince at a young age. Looking at how powerful he was, dominating the team by himself, Masaki and Mikihiko were lost for words, and one thing for sure, they knew that they couldn't do anything against Masaki, especially when they saw Masaki's magic.

Interference Armour.

Interference Armour is a Movement Type Wide Area Interference barrier that extends in a one-meter radius when activated.

Masaki used this magic to protect himself from any magic that attacked him, and as for his means of attack, he used air-based magic like Morisaki, but of course, the lethality of magic was stronger than Morisaki's.

"He's strong..." Morisaki was lost for words.

"Um, he's strong." Mikihiko nodded without hesitation.

"Still, the strategy of the Prince is a bit different from the usual," Morisaki said.

"Hmm... now that you mention it, the Ichijou family will usually use a mid or long-range attack bombardment, but what the Prince is doing now is fighting from a close distance," Mikihiko said in surprise.

"Well, he just wants to provoke me and have me fight head-on." Haru then looked at the two and said, "I'll handle him."

"Have you found a way to defeat him, Haru?" Mikihiko asked.

"There's a way, but well, let's talk about this later since we need to think about our next match, right?" Haru said.

"Are we going to change our strategy?" Morisaki asked.

"No, let's just do what we did before," Haru said simply.

Morisaki and Mikihiko nodded since with Haru, there was no way for anyone to sneak attack on them, and the faster they defeated their opponent, the better they could save their energy for the final, and since Ichijou had provoked them, then they would also do the same.

In the next match, Haru, Morisaki, and Mikihiko became even bolder, and they ignored all the obstacles and walked like usual, then defeated all the three opponents in an instant before they won the Monolith Code, which made everyone become very speechless since they were too strong, right?

Masaki, who was being provoked, also did the same and overwhelmed his opponents with his power!

The audience who watched both the First High School and the Third High School were wondering whether both Haru and Masaki were really the first years, as for the people in the Magicians Community, they were already amazed at the power of the Numbers, but one thing for sure, everyone really anticipated the match between Haru and Masaki.

Masaki was from the Ichijou family, who was also a member of the Ten Master Clans, and Haru was from the Rokkaku family, who was also a member of the 18 Assistant Houses. Their status wasn't that much different, so even if either of them won, there wouldn't be much of a problem, unlike in the original story where Tatsuya won against Masaki.

Tatsuya's status was too low, and if he won against Masaki, who was a member of the Ten Master Clan, it would cause all the Ten Master Clan to lose face.

With all of that, the final had been decided, and both of the First High School and the Third High School would fight to each other to get the champion of the Monolith Code.

Everyone really anticipated what would happen tomorrow, but before that, Haru needed to do something.

At night, Haru walked out of the hotel and flew fast toward one direction. There was one problem that he needed to solve, even though he didn't care about this problem since it couldn't bring him any harm.. Still, he had never been lenient toward the enemy, so it was better to solve everything now so he could have a peaceful Nine Schools Competition from now on.
