126 Episode 6: Operation: Hellcurses (1/2)

”To the teenagers in your generations, these rituals are fun and exploring the unknown makes their blood boil and they really are curious if the rumors of the ritual are real so if there are people who are afraid on what will happen, there are those curious babies that will try and try the ritual even it was very dangerous causing for more casualties,” Voltaire said as he continues to munch on his breakfast.

”What Voltaire said is true. We don't take anything lightly if it is involved in magic and certain elements where normal people will be harmed alongside with it. If it was dangerous that it can kill ordinary people, we won't just turn a blind eye on it.

”Around what time are we going to depart?”

”After breakfast. The sooner we respond to the situation, the lesser victims we will be able to save. Make sure you are well prepared.”

...

After serving everyone for breakfast, I returned to my room and prepared my uniform. Honestly, even though I did not wear the uniform for a few months, it was like I didn't wear it for how many years. But I am wearing these clothes to return to school, I am wearing this so that I can investigate the rituals. This is part of the job as a magician and keeping humanity safe and unaware of the situation of the magical world.

Carrying a new bag with the necessary materials I bought back then from the shop of Titan and some new notebooks and other school supplies, my gear is good to go. I also didn't forget to bring the Skull Knuckle with me. That weapon is the only weapon I can't allow to be left behind. This will be my trump card in case the things at school get awry.

As for my companions, I already am acquainted with Titan, also known for his real name Godou since we are schoolmates. I am still perplexed in working along with Raigaki though. Even though we are both an otaku, he was more obsessive about it which makes me a bit uncomfortable at him. His alter ego is scary too, I still remember during the war, he is the only one who managed to pin down the demonic priest without relying too much on magic. In short, he is scary.

”Kazuma, are you done? We are departing soon,” Yaya shouted at my door.

”Alright. Almost done. Wait a minute,” I answered and quickly finish all of the stuff I might leave behind.

Opening the door, I saw Yaya in a Sakuramiya High Uniform. She looked like she was a kouhai to me but I don't think she is my kouhai. I think it's the opposite instead. Of course, her teddy bear is still with her. That is her weapon so I doubt she will be parting with it.

”Yo man, you look badass back there in the Phantasmal World ya know?” Raigaki said.

”Shut up, for now, Raigaki, Silence!” Yaya flicks her fingers and a small magic circle appeared. Raigaki frowned. He started speaking but his voice cannot be heard anymore, causing him to look disappointed.

”...” I am speechless and not really sure what to do about it.

”Don't dwell too much on it, Kazuma. Just ignore him for now,” Yaya said.

Not really sure what is going on but okay, if that is the case, then I will just pretend that nothing happened.

...

When we go down the lobby of the building, Titan is already waiting for us.

”We are ready to depart. The teleportation circle is ready to boot up!” Titan said.
