Snow Girl was an SR-level Spirit-branded Retainer second only to SSRs. Her ultimate ability was crowd control …
Seiji's memories from his previous life flashed through his mind. 'How nostalgic — this girl was my first SR-level card.'
'Cough cough, I got distracted again.'
In Sakura Island, the Yuki Girls were known to almost every single person in the world. Because of their legendary beauty and merciless ruthlessness, they created a clear image of the Yuki Girls that people both admired and feared.
She also appeared quite frequently in anime and manga. As long as it was a story about demons and ghosts, she would always appear.
For Seiji, the one who left the deepest impression on him was the one who married a Snow Girl (no mistake!) Hell Master …
At any rate, Snow Girl was such a famous demon — a beautiful, deadly existence.
"If I continue investigating, I'll encounter a Snow Girl … it sounds like a joke, but I think they'll believe me." Seiji rubbed his chin in contemplation.
"Let's just leave it at that. I'll tell them without revealing too much.
As for you two … will you be able to deal with her? "
Seiji looked at the two girls in front of him.
Wanhua Summer Night and Shuho Hitaka both remained silent.
"It seems like things aren't looking good … Let me ask one more thing — what will happen if this situation continues?"
There was still silence.
'It seems like I won't get an answer.' That was what Seiji thought.
Just as he was about to say goodbye, something suddenly jumped onto his back and hugged him!
"Eh … Mist?" Seiji jumped in fright. He then discovered that the cat girl who was hugging him from behind was none other than the elusive cat girl!
"Rona?" Hitaka exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this scene, "Why are you …"
Just like Summer Night, she was also surprised that the silent cat girl was being so intimate with a boy.
Rona in the Mist hugged Seiji's back like a koala. She rested her face on Seiji's shoulder and looked at Summer Night and Hitaka without blinking.
"Rona …" Summer Night sensed something as she looked at the cat-eared girl's heterochromatic eyes.
There was a moment of silence.
"Rona, hurry up and get off his back!" Hitaka shouted.
But the girl didn't let go. Instead, she narrowed her eyes and rubbed her cheek against the boy's face.
Seiji felt a little itchy.
He didn't know why the other party was suddenly getting close to him, and what should he do next? Should he just stand there?
Wanhua Summer Night sighed.
"Do you think Haruta-kun can help us, Rona?"
"Huh?" Hitaka was stunned.
"Meow ~" Rona meowed softly and rubbed against Seiji's cheek.
'How cute!' Seiji was quite taken aback by how cute she was.
"Grand Mistress?" Hitaka looked towards Summer Night.
"I don't know what Rona is thinking either, but she seems to think that we should tell Haruta-kun more about the situation."
"How could that be … Although he's' Haruta, 'he's currently just …"
"I know." Summer Night sighed.
Then, she looked towards Seiji Mukai again.
"Rona seems to think that you should know more … Do you really want to hear it?"
This wasn't something that could be forgotten just because he heard it. Wanhua Summer Night's expression implied such a thing.
'Should I take another step forward and go deeper into the "other world"?'
Seiji inwardly chuckled.
There was no need to hesitate at all.
Even without considering the fact that the Grand Mistress who helped him go back to school was currently experiencing a crisis, and without considering Haruta's bloodline and family matters, just based on his own will, he wanted to go to the "other world" to take a look.
He had been reborn, and he even had a powerful cheat code. How could he be afraid of the extraordinary domain? How could he be afraid!?
'Don't be afraid, just go!'
"Tell me. Although I'm not sure what I can do, I … don't want to just stand by and watch the president!"
Seiji spoke frankly with a resolute look in his eyes.
Summer Night widened her eyes slightly.
Hitaka also had a surprised look in his eyes.
The aura that the boy in front of them revealed in an instant caused the two girls in the extraordinary domain to feel a little shaken.
"Alright … as you wish."
Summer Night nodded.
"Hitaka, pour some tea first."
A moment later.
The three of them sat around a round table with a cup of fragrant hot tea in front of them.
Seiji originally wanted to hug the cat-eared girl like last time, but she fell asleep while hugging him on his back.
'She really turned into a koala.
'Well, she's not heavy at all. She's warm and soft, and cute. Let's just leave it like this!'
Seiji once again tasted the tea in the student council room. 'Yep, good tea.'
"Haruta-kun, I'm sure you can tell that we're in a bad situation right now." Summer Night also took a sip of tea before speaking up.
"The enemy has already begun their operation, and we still don't know anything about them. We can't even stop their Spirit-branded Retainers.
If this situation continues, the enemy will complete their spell formation and make further preparations.
When the duel begins, the enemy will be completely prepared … I don't think I need to explain what this means. "
Seiji nodded.
"Since it's difficult for you to stop the enemy, why don't you make your own preparations? If the enemy has their own spell formation, you should have your own countermeasures, right? "
"Our spell formation is already here." Summer Night looked out the window.
"The entire Yuen Hwa Secondary is our spell formation."
Suddenly, the entire school was involved!?
Seiji raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"You don't seem all that surprised."
"A little … it's just that I can imagine it. After all, there are some similar plots in anime."
"That's true …" Summer Night smiled.
Her smile caused Seiji to recall something else that he'd wanted to ask ever since their last meeting, but now wasn't the time.
"You can view Yuen Hwa Secondary as my castle as a Yin Yang Master. The entire school is surrounded by a gigantic barrier, and there are all sorts of traps and mechanisms set up everywhere. There are also demons and spirits guarding the school both in the open and in the dark.
Hitaka and Rona are my left and right generals, and I'm the main commander, as well as the student council president, controlling everything here.
That's why this place is basically safe. Under normal circumstances, ordinary Yin Yang Masters would find it difficult to invade.
However, a duel between Yin Yang Masters would be a different story. "
Summer Night paused for a moment.
"Let's still use a castle as an analogy. If I have a sturdy castle, then what the enemy is currently doing is arranging their troops and constructing siege weapons.
When they finish their preparations and challenge me to a duel, it'll be the equivalent of a siege.
"You should understand now, right, Haruta-kun?"
Seiji rubbed his chin in contemplation and nodded.
A siege would only be initiated when the attacker believed that they had a high chance of winning. If they didn't have a high chance of winning, then they wouldn't even attack.
In other words, when the enemy attacked, it meant that there was a high chance that Summer Night's castle defenses would be broken through!
In that case, Summer Night's side, which had already prepared their defenses to the limit, could still disrupt the enemy's preparations so that they wouldn't be able to complete their siege.
Or, they could find out the enemy's identity and hiding place, and defeat the enemy before they could finish their preparations!
"I … indeed understand.
The most important thing right now is whether or not we can stop the enemy's Spirit-branded Retainer who's currently constructing a formation.
No matter if it's to stop the enemy's preparations or find out who's still hiding, that Spirit-branded Retainer is the only way to break through. "
Seiji looked towards Summer Night.
"That's right, that's exactly it." Natsuya sighed. "And right now, we're stuck at this step."
A moment of silence fell between them.
"Hypothetically … I mean hypothetically," Seiji spoke up again in a cautious manner.
"If the situation continues like this, and you're unable to stop the enemy, and the enemy attacks after they're fully prepared … what will happen to you?
