“TRANSLATOR:Foxsunes/EDITOR TheNix”

He brushed off president Yuiga’s fist and delivered a counter in return, but president Yuiga calmly grabbed his hand and tried to throw Ikusaba on the floor. Ikusaba realized what he was trying to do and took a few steps back. President Yuiga took a step forward as Ikusaba stepped back and landed a blow on Ikusaba’s chest using his elbow. Ikusaba’s face twisted in pain but that wasn’t the only thing he did, Ikusaba grabbed president Yuiga’s arm that had delivered the blow using both his arms and then he twisted it up. President Yuiga who was on the receiving end rolled forward and escaped the hold. 

  ｢Woah.｣

They were trying to throw each other and were exchanging blows. They were using similar moves so the deciding factor for them was how skilled they were. I couldn’t help but be captivated by their fight. 

  ｢Argh.｣

But immediately president Yuiga’s expressions turned gloomy. I looked at him and saw that his eyes were no longer red. I had a vague idea that the effect had worn off. 

  ｢Now you die, four eyes.｣

Ikusaba grabbed president Yuiga’s chest forcibly, lifted him up over his head and slammed him on his back. President Yuiga was now laying on the ground unable to move. Ikusaba proceeded to deliver a blow with his ankle on president Yuiga’s abdomen. 

  ｢Gaaaa!｣

President Yuiga’s scream echoed. 

  ｢Isshin-sama!｣

After witnessing such a horrible sight Ibara-senpai, who had finally managed to stand up, charged at Ikusaba. But charging at him like that in a rage is dangerous, she’ll be thrown again.

I somehow moved my body despite the screaming pain and ran after her. I thought of cancelling Ikusaba’s throw like the last time.

Ikusaba looked at us and laughed. 

  ｢It’s futile.｣

Ikusaba took a few steps and he went towards the shadow of the pillar.

  ｢Shit!｣

And Ikusaba disappeared into the shadows. 

  ｢Ku! Where did he go!｣

I immediately looked around but he was nowhere to be seen. Where is he? Where did he go? Ten seconds, twenty seconds, I became anxious as the time passed. 

Click

I looked at where the sound came from. There was nothing there.. no wait, a pebble? 

  ｢I’m here.｣

I heard Ikusaba’s voice, I looked back and got punched the moment I looked at him. I staggered back. An angry Ibara-senpai took my place and charged at Ikusaba. 

The result was as expected, Ibara-senpai’s body got lifted up and she was smashed onto the floor. She laid there groaning on the floor, it seems like she is in no shape to stand up again anytime soon. I came to a conclusion after witnessing this disaster that Ikusaba Hiiyo is exceptional. He is really strong. It isn’t just his moves that resemble Aikido but also those shoes, Shadow fin’s ability is a handful. It enables him to move through shadows without any restrictions and seems like he can appear with a time lag as he demonstrated it a few moments ago. To be frank, I can’t predict the timing of his assaults. This is really a cheat skill. Like seriously! 

  ｢Jyuugo, stop being pathetic.｣

I looked at the source of the voice and saw Tensai. Ikkyuu Tensai had stood up beside the treasure box with the lock and she was looking at me. 

  ｢The girl who was having a staring competition with the puzzle huh. Were you able to solve the puzzle?｣ Ikusaba asked jokingly. It was obvious that he had no expectations of her. But I knew it immediately. 

  ｢Yeah, I solved it.｣

I knew that Tensai would say it without a doubt.

***

  ｢That’s remarkable.｣

Ikusaba smiled and sank into the shadow of a pillar nearby. Reflex kicked in and I started looking around immediately. 

  ｢Now, let’s see.｣

I looked at the direction where the voice came from. Ikusaba was standing beside the treasure box and was gazing at the eight x eight puzzle on the lip of the treasure box. 

  ｢Hey, young lady. What’s this about? The picture in the puzzle isn’t complete at all.｣

  ｢It is complete, in my mind that is.｣

Tensai grinned boldy and Ikusaba frowned. 

  ｢What do you mean?｣

  ｢It means what I said. I have already solved the puzzle and the answer is in my head.｣

Ikusaba sneered at Tensai who said that while tapping on her temple. 

  ｢That’s a frivolous bluff.｣

  ｢It isn’t a bluff.｣

  ｢Then solve it.｣

  ｢I don’t want to.｣

  ｢I dispise people who make stupid jokes.｣

  ｢I see, that’s good to know. I’m glad that I am able to be someone you despise.｣

Tensai kept grinning and Ikusaba lifted his fist up. 

  ｢Sto…..｣

And then Tensai’s body got tossed into the air. 

Tensai, who didn’t weigh much to begin with, got blown away as if she was in a gag anime. 

  ｢Tensai!｣

But immediately I noticed that there was something odd about Ikusaba, he crouched and put his hand on his abdomen.

  ｢Gu! Damn your cunning ways.｣

Ikusaba said it while glaring at Tensai who was laying on the floor. 

  ｢It’s a stun gun. It should have had enough impact but it seems like you are wearing something inside your clothes.｣

Tensai had tears at the corner of her eyes after her cheek was hit but she was still grinning while lifting up a small device which probably is the stun gun she is talking about. Seems like she got Ikusaba when she was hit. 

  ｢I.. I’m used to tricks like that so I have countermeasures for them.｣

  ｢Seems like you are having a tough time breathing, are you ok? Can you dive in to shadow properly in that condition?｣

The moment Ikusaba heard that his facial expression changed. 

  ｢You bitch! I’m going to kill you.｣

Ikusaba’s rage meter went further up and he tried to attack Tensai again while his body was still paralyzed. 

But before that could happen got in front of him. 

  ｢You are being a nuisance, step aside!｣

Smash

It’s such a wonderful sensation. The sensation of my left fist going into Ikusaba’s face passed through my spine and stimulated my brain. It was a sort of ecstacy. But it isn’t enough, it isn’t enough yet. This rage wouldn’t stop till this piece of trash stops breathing. I’ll make it clear first that I’m not mad at him because he hit Tensai. It’s just that the timing of getting mad at him and Tensai being hit overlapped, it’s just a coincidence. No need to worry, I’m calm as always. 

It’s just that I am extremely mad at him while being calm. Ikusaba, who had gotten punched, looked at me as if he couldn’t believe what he was experiencing. I didn’t give him any time to process it and immediately gave him another blow. But this time Ikusaba crossed his arms and guarded his face. So what?

  ｢Uora!｣

  ｢Wha!｣

I forcefully screwed my fist and created a gap and punched Ikusaba’s face. Ikusaba staggered and tried to take a distance from me but I wasn’t going to let him go that easily. 

  ｢Jyuugo, he will dive into the shadow while he is stunned!｣

  ｢Yeah, I know that Tensai!｣

There’s nobody that can swim when they can’t breathe properly, especially when their body is stunned. So, I delivered another punch. 

Crack

I delivered an uppercut to his flank with all my might and my fist sank into his body.

  ｢Argh! Gu, u..ga!｣

I could feel the sensation of his bones breaking. Ikusaba who had taken my punch dove into the shadow while groning. But it was clearly different from before, he immediately came out of the shadow a few steps away, it was a distance he could have covered just by running away. 

Obviously, I saw that coming so I immediately delivered a kick the moment he came out. Ikusaba got blown away and was rolling on the floor due to the impact but he quickly jumped to his feet. 

  ｢Fuuu! Fuuu! Fuuu!｣

He was trying his best to breathe normally, I could see the astonishment in his eyes. 

  ｢Shadow fin, so it is same as how fins work in water. Sounds like something Nanana-chan would call it.｣

  ｢It’s official name is Shadow Swimming Wet Long Boots. When I heard its name for the first time I was surprised to know that a name apart from the lame names given by Nanana could give away the ability this easily.｣

Ikusaba said it annoyingly after he heard me talking in a calm tone. 

The shadow swimming wet long boots that Ikusaba Hiiyo is wearing. It’s ability isn’t moving from shadow to shadow but it is diving from shadow to shadow. Tensai using the word dive for it made everything clear, Ikusaba isn’t passing through the shadows but instead he is swimming in it.
