The start of the selection battle was set for the next week.
This week was the first week of school for freshmen, and the cruel selection battle was going to be held in the second week.
However, those who did not want to participate could directly send a text message to the committee to cancel their participation. The selection battle did not happen every day. Some people would fight on the Monday of the next week, while others would fight on the Tuesday of the next week. Just as Origi Yuri had said, there would only be a competition every few days, so there was still plenty of time to prepare.
The battle between Ichiki and Kirihara Shizuya was on the Tuesday of the next week, which was about a week away.
Originally, the selection committee should have started sending text messages over the weekend to inform the students who were preparing to participate in the selection. However, for some reason, Yi Hui's first selection was received in advance on the third day of school, which proved how hasty and hurried the selection committee's decision was. It was as if someone was eager to settle this competition as soon as possible.
At least, Stacey and Zhurou hadn't received the notice of the selection battle, and Rozen had already texted to refuse to participate in the selection battle. As a result, only Ichiki received the notice in advance.
Perhaps in the entire Pojun Academy, Ichiki and Kirihara Shizuya were the first to receive the notification of the selection battle, and the rest were still waiting.
In any case, the battle between Ichiki and Kirihara Shizuya was already decided.
Even if Zhurou wanted to argue with the chairman after that, it was useless.
"Since Ebon has decided to participate in the Seven Star Sword Martial Festival, and he's aiming to win, as long as Kirihara Shizuya doesn't get defeated halfway, he will face Ebon sooner or later. It's just a matter of time. Even if you protest, it's useless."
Rozen told Zhurou the ruthless reality.
There was no evidence that there was a shady deal going on behind the scenes. Even if Shin-Miya Kurenai wanted to deal with it, it would be difficult for him to do so, right?
Not to mention, even if the Black Iron Family really bribed the selection committee, they only arranged an opponent that Yihui couldn't defeat and did nothing else. It was basically impossible for the decision to be canceled because of this.
"You don't want to fight because your opponent is difficult to defeat, and you want the school to cancel this match and change to an opponent that you can easily defeat. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for you to make such a request?"
That was what Rozen had said, leaving Zhu Ying speechless.
Magi knights weren't athletes, but they needed to fight, serve the country, and serve the Alliance. If they didn't dare to fight just because their opponent was too different from them, it would cause their evaluation to drop.
In view of this, Yihui could only comply.
"Only by defeating Kirihara Shizuya can Ebon realize his dream."
Rozen laid out this fact.
Thus, no one mentioned this matter again.
After that, Yi Hui left without saying a word. He returned to his dormitory and shut himself in.
Zhu Ying hurriedly chased after him and entered her dormitory with Yi Hui.
Rozen and Stacey also returned to their dormitory.
Under such circumstances, the night gradually arrived.
.....
"I'm done, the bathroom is empty. You can use it."
Rozen, who had just finished taking a shower and was wearing very light clothes and a towel around his neck, walked out of the bathroom and said to Stacy.
"Oh, oh …!"
Sitting on the sofa, Stacey, who was thinking about something, quickly got up, picked up her clothes, and was about to go to the bathroom.
Rozen inadvertently glanced at the clothes Stacey was holding, and it seemed that some pink underwear was accidentally exposed.
(Is this an inevitable situation for men and women living together?)
Rozen felt helpless and quietly looked away.
Rozen had no special hobbies or interests. In order to avoid embarrassment and trouble, Rozen already knew what to do.
It was not the first time that Rozen, who lived with a young and beautiful girl, knew very well that if he accidentally exposed his abnormality at this time, the other party's keen sixth sense would immediately detect it, and because of shame and anger, she would push all the blame to the boy, which was very unreasonable.
It was not the first time that Rozen encountered such a situation.
In the past, when he lived with Yusha and the others, Rozen did not know how many times he encountered such a situation, so he was very clear that at this time, he should quietly hide his discovery.
But …
(On the contrary, Stacey seemed to be very interested in my underwear last night.)
Such a thought flashed through Rozen's mind, and then he quickly shook his head, shaking off this absurd and dangerous idea.
Otherwise, if it was investigated, Rozen was sure that he would not be able to bear it.
(Just pretend that I didn't find anything.)
Rozen decided.
Stacey, who didn't know that Rozen thought so many things in a short moment, was just about to walk into the bathroom, but she suddenly stopped.
"Hey."
Just like that, Stacy asked without any reason.
"Do you think Ebon can defeat that Hunter?"
Stacey's question made Rozen, who was about to sit on the sofa and watch TV, slightly startled.
"What?" Rozen was puzzled: "Do you care?"
"Yeah." Stacey nodded without any hesitation and said very seriously: "Although I used to treat Ebon as an ordinary student, thinking that an F-class knight like him should not be worth paying attention to, but today, I have fully seen his strength, and he is indeed worthy of my attention and respect."
To be able to fight to this point with only F-class ability, to be honest, Stacey was both surprised and impressed.
"If possible, I hope to fight against such a strong enemy. That is the purpose of my coming to this school."
It was rare for Stacy to speak her mind so frankly.
"So, if Ebon loses to that kind of person, I will feel very sorry."
That was not the most important thing.
The most important thing was …
"Ebon's condition isn't quite right today. Because of that female swordsman named Attila, he was already in low spirits. Now that he was forced to fight such a weak opponent, it was as if he had given up all hope when he left. It's really worrying."
For this reason, Stacey couldn't help but ask Rozen for help.
"Is it really impossible for Ebon to win against that kind of guy?"
Stacey asked.
Rozen turned his gaze and looked at Stacey.
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Rozen asked the same question as when he was in the chairman's office.
However, Stacey was different from Heino Shinsengumi and Nin Nin.
"Of course, I want to hear the truth. Who wants to hear a lie?"
Stacey was quite dissatisfied.
Rozen shrugged.
"The truth is, there is a chance of winning."
Rozen said so sincerely.
"It just depends on Ichikawa's performance."
That was Rozen's view.
