"Then can I join now?"
"Yep, I think so, but I still need to discuss it with the others first … By the way, are you sure you want to join? You'll have to work hard if you join. "
"No problem, I'm sure!" Chiaki patted her chest confidently.
"Alright, I've received your application. Please wait for further notice." Seiji smiled.
"I … I want to join as well!" Mika spoke up.
The two of them looked towards the double pigtailed girl again.
"Although I don't know what I can do, but … I want to join as well," Mika said in a weak voice.
"Then you can be a voice actress like me! It's quite simple. "Chiaki chuckled.
No, it wouldn't be simple at all.
"Of course it's simple for someone like you who has excellent acting skills, but as for Mika …"
"I'll do my best!"
"… This isn't something that you should be fighting so hard for, because it's essentially a hobby project …"
Seiji really wanted to tell her that there was no need to care so much about it, but when he saw Mika's expression … he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Let me discuss it with the other members tonight first," Seiji could only say.
And then, the school bell rang.
After class, school ended.
Seiji had Chiaki, Mika, and Kaori go to the library first, while he went to look for Genji.
"Chiaki already told me about what she did to you."
He lowered his head slightly towards the purple-haired girl.
"As for this, I apologize to you on her behalf, as well as myself for not keeping your secret well … I'm sorry."
Genji remained silent.
"Chiaki promised to keep it a secret, and Mika also knows about it … I don't dare to ask you to forgive Chiaki right now, but … I hope that you won't hold too much of a grudge against her," Seiji told her sincerely.
"… What if I don't forgive her and hold a grudge against her?" Genji asked in a soft voice.
"Er … if that's the case …" Seiji revealed an awkward expression.
Genji smiled faintly upon seeing his expression.
"It's just an if. Actually, although I can't completely forgive Wakaba like Uehara, I don't really hate her either. So, you don't have to worry, Seigo. "
With that, she turned away.
"I'm going back. Goodbye."
The purple-haired girl left just like that.
Seiji silently watched her back as she left before heading to the library.
"What did Asamiya-san say?"
Chiaki asked in the library.
Seiji relayed Genji's words.
"I see," the tomboy muttered.
Then she said nothing more.
…
After dinner.
Seiji began practicing Mana Bullets.
This was one of the most basic offensive spells, which was to condense Mana into a specific structure and then shoot it out with an incantation.
But just because it was basic did not mean that it was simple. The more spiritual energy he gathered, the more complex the structure he had to form would be. The difficulty would also be higher, and the relative power would also be greater.
And the upper limit of the Psionic Energy it could condense was … infinite!
That's right, infinite. That was what the system said.
That was to say, its power was infinite. As long as there was enough spiritual energy and it could condense into shape, it could even destroy Earth in one shot!
Didn't that sound familiar?
Turtle Wave O Technique, Mana O … at any rate, it was just a technique like that.
There was no upper limit to its power. It sounded powerful, but it was actually useless, because it was impossible to have so much spiritual energy.
And even if there was, it would be a big problem if it could condense into shape. Besides, if there was so much spiritual energy, it would be better to use it on other spells that could benefit the world, so why did it have to be this?
Cough, he stopped getting distracted.
Practicing offensive spells in his own home was dangerous, but failing to cast Mana Bullets wouldn't cause any damage, so it didn't matter.
But just in case, Seiji still had Little Shi cast a barrier while he practiced within it.
Condensing spiritual energy into a structure … he felt like he was kneading mud or playing with a Rubik's cube.
Just kneading, playing, and he did it!
After confirming that it had condensed into shape, Seiji activated it.
* Whoosh … * Smack! *
The ball … whoops, the [Mana Bullets] shot out, hit the barrier, and exploded.
The power was obviously quite weak, and he estimated that it would only be able to knock away an empty can. But it was indeed a success!
Overjoyed, Seiji opened up his system to check the progress. Yep, it was increasing quite well.
He practiced for a while more.
When the scheduled time arrived, he stopped and had Little Shi remove the barrier.
Seiji turned on his computer, went online, logged into his chat, and sent a message to Genji and Tomohisa.
"The first knight has arrived in response to your summons! Your Majesty, what are your orders? "
Tomohisa responded with a respectful emoticon.
"The second knight has arrived in response to your summons. Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Yukari replied in such a manner, sending an elegant greeting emoticon.
"Everyone, this king wants to … Hey! What the hell!? "Seiji was almost dragged into a ditch by them.
"This is the setting of our team. This humble one thinks that using 'Knights of the Round Table' as our team name is a good idea. Salted Fish is the leader, also known as' King, 'and the other members are' Knights'! They will be arranged according to the order in which they joined the team, "Tomohisa said.
"I think it's not bad. I quite like the name 'Knights of the Round Table.' I don't have any objections to Salted Fish being the King," Genji said.
"I have an objection! It's good to set it as a knight, but why am I the 'King'? Sweet Pig was the one who created this game, so if anyone should be the king, it should be Sweet Pig, "Seiji said.
"This humble one can't do it. I don't have the aptitude of a King, so I can't pull out the Sword in the Stone."
"I didn't pull it out either! It's better to say that I didn't even have it! "
"No, you do have the aptitude. This humble one has seen a holy light on your body. That is the light that only a King can emit! "It was followed by a kneeling emoticon.
"I agree." It was followed by a polite smiling emoticon.
"What the hell is a King!? I'm not a walking light bulb in human form! Even King Arthur can't emit light, alright!! "Seiji forcefully retorted.
The thing that emitted light was King Arthur's sword, not him … or her.
"This is proof that you have the lofty aptitude that surpasses the legendary King!"
"That's right."
"Proof, my ass! That's enough!! Ice And Fire, you as well, stop messing around! "
In the end, they still messed around for quite a while.
"I'm tired of retorting … To be serious, I don't think I'm suitable to be the leader. Isn't it better for Sweet Pork to be the leader?"
"This humble one really can't do it. I don't have the ability to be the leader. For example, if this humble one was the leader and instructed Ice And Fire to do something difficult, what would you think, Teacher? "
"This pervert actually dares to order me around!"
"Although I had a premonition, this humble one was still shocked! Ice And Fire Sensei actually thinks of this humble one as a pervert!? "
"Aren't you?"
"Er … although I am … but this humble one has been very polite to you, Teacher! I don't think I've ever offended you. "
"You want me to draw some strange drawings right at the beginning of our discussion … Your perverted aura is so strong that I can smell it through the screen." Genji sent a cold side-eye emoticon.
"Ahhh!!!" Tomohisa sent an emoticon that screamed in pain.
Seiji was rendered speechless.
"That's how it is. Do you see, Lord Salted Fish? I'll hand the throne over to you. This humble one is going to take a boat out to sea and find a place to rest in peace … "This was followed by an emoticon of someone walking away pitifully in the cold wind.
"Come back here! Alright, I got it. I'll be the leader. "Seiji sent an emoticon that sighed helplessly.
"A salute to the birth of the king!" Tomohisa instantly spoke up.
Genji cooperated and sent a long list of celebratory emoticons. Some were blowing horns, some were setting off fireworks, some were dancing in the air, some were clapping passionately, and some were firing cannons …
'So this world has such a saying as well! ' Seiji's face twitched.
"Thank you for trusting me and allowing me to be the leader. I don't dare to promise anything. I can only promise that I'll do my best. "
"The first knight hereby swears that I shall follow our king until death!"
"Please be serious, Sweet Pork Knight."
"I suddenly feel so silly being called that!"
"Then, isn't it better to call me Cream Knight?"
"It's still so silly! No! I want to change my name!! "
"I think that Sweet Pork Knight sounds quite cute. It's not silly," Genji consoled him.
"Really?"
"Yep, it's better not to change it."
"Oh … then I'll listen to Ice And Fire -sensei."
"Please call me Ice And Fire Knight."
"That's such a cool title! In comparison, this humble one is suffering from mental damage!! "
Genji sent an emoticon that covered its mouth and laughed.
"Stop talking about all this. I order you all to stop as the king! We should get down to business. "
Seiji sent a serious emoticon.
