Scarlet
Fortunately for , everyone clears out when three particular students approach . Carolyne, otherwise known as Rift, the guy I killed before who ended up still in the top one hundred but at a much lower rank due to that, and the other one who I saw fighting the two.
Honestly, I could probably try to leave. But then Id be at the rcy of the dozens of people who just left due to these three. And Id rather face three people than all of them, soooo, Im just gonna see what they want.
Good idea, Tar says, agreeing with .
Oddly enough, Carolyne doesnt actually look at even though shes approaching. Shes actually just looking at the guy who I killed with her hand on the hilt of her sword.
And the guy in question? He surprisingly doesnt look mad at . In fact, he looks rather amused as he walks up before saying, So youre the one who finished off? After seeing nod he continues with a wide grin on his face. Good job! I wonder just how fun itll be to fight you after youve grown a little?
My mouth parts open in surprise, only for to be even more surprised by the sight of the girl Michael and Emilys sister smacking the guy across the head and saying, Please dont say things like that to people when you et them. She then turns to and says, Dont mind him. Hes a battle junky.
Oh. So he doesnt mind killing him then?
I glance at the third of the group to find him not saying a word. But he does nod his head in greeting at . So, I guess he isnt mad either.
Thats good.
I open my mouth to speak, only to be stopped when the guy in question whose na I believe is Nicholas Wright rubs the back of his head and says, Nah, shes just like . I saw it in her eyes when we fought! Then he looks directly at , eting my eyes as he says, Right, Scarlet Wolf?
Please just call Scarlet, I say right away before anyone can interrupt again. And surprisingly, none of them seem to find the irony of my na and title even remotely amusing. Which I find to be very nice.
Alright, call Carol, the girl says in response with a nod and a faint smile, not introducing her na since the vice-headmaster had already done so to the whole school. And Nicholas quickly joins her saying, Im Nicholas Wright, but just call Nick.
The two then look over at the third mber of the group, and he just looks between the three of us before quietly answering, Alexander Kuznetsov. Call Alex.
Oh? Soone from the northeast? Or at least, judging by his accent and last na that is.
Pleasure to et you three, I tell them with a nod, only to notice the mbers of my team climbing the stairs to the stage after all of the other top hundred students finish leaving. So I turn to Carol and ask, When you said to take care of your siblings, did you an Michael and Emily?
She nods her head and says, Yeah, before glancing behind her to find the two walking up to us with Belle and Denise along with them.
Michael and Emily both look a little surprised at my company likely due to their sister being here before Emily shouts, Sis! and runs up to hug Carol, making raise a brow in amusent. anwhile Michael just nods his head and says, Hey Carol. So youve already t Scarlet?
Yeah, she says while still hugging Emily, making take a closer look at their older sister in the process just due to the armor their wearing. Mostly because Carols armor really does look like a vastly upgraded version of Emilys and Michaels, which makes wonder if their armor has sothing to do with their family. Carol also has her hair tied up in a single ponytail with her sword sheathed at her waist on her left side, likely signifying that shes right handed. She killed Nick right under my nose.
That seems to shock every one of my teammates, except for Belle who has no idea who Nick is. But it proceeds to shock her when Denise points out who he is to her.
I just shrug in response.
I saw an opportunity and I took it, I answer rather bluntly before glancing at the guy, and he doesnt seem to mind. So its fine.
He gives a thumbs up and I cant help but smirk and return it.
That guys not half bad. I was kind of expecting my sneak attack to put us on the wrong foot or sothing, but nope, hes a cool guy. And he understands the draw of battle too!
You just like him because hes a battle junky like you, Tar mutters sarcastically.
I have no idea what youre talking about. Im not a battle junky.
You literally just said- Tar starts but I interrupt him.
I said that hes a cool guy.
Tar goes silent for several seconds before eventually muttering, Battle junkies and sohow sending a visual of a tanuki shaking its head in disgust.
How rude.
I glance at Alex, who seems to be rather uncomfortable in this growing group of people before I turn to the others and ask, Hey, could we talk sowhere thats not, ya know, in the middle of the stage of a large auditorium?
The siblings who had all started chatting away along with Nick, leaving Belle and Denise awkwardly standing to one side and and Alex to the other all turn to look at before showing slightly embarrassed expressions when they look around the stage.
Yeah, thatd probably be for the best, Carol says, having let go of Emily at so point while I wasnt paying attention. Lets head to my suite to chat. And I can tell you of the benefits you get as a Top class student on the way.
I nod my head in agreent before we all begin to head towards her suite? Wait, she did just say suite, right?
Yep. Tar answers rather shortly.
Huh.
Must be a Top class student thing.
