"Hmm?"
The sudden voice made Rozen slightly startled. He raised his head and looked in front of him.
He saw a beautiful girl standing in front of Rozen's seat.
"It's you?"
Rozen half-squinted his eyes as if he was annoyed by it.
Looking at Rozen like this, Kyōko Kurahashi frowned, and her tone became unfriendly.
"I asked you a question!"
Kyōko Kurahashi slightly raised her voice.
Obviously, Kyōko Kurahashi was very concerned about this question.
Not to mention Kyōko Kurahashi, even the private students around lowered their voices again and paid attention to this side.
No matter who it was, they all showed great interest in this question.
In this regard, Rozen could understand why.
Considering the fact that he had a Servant-Style, it was normal for the private students around him to have such a reaction.
And there was no need to deliberately hide this matter.
"It's me."
So Rozen answered straightforwardly.
"That's the Servant-Style passed down from generation to generation in the Earth Tribe. As a member of the Kurahashi family, it's impossible that you don't know about this, right?"
Rozen asked in return.
Hearing this, Kyōko Kurahashi bit her lip slightly.
Not only Kyōko Kurahashi, but even the private students around him were silent.
Unlike other shikigami, the Servant-Style and Guardian Style basically needed to be summoned continuously for twenty-four hours.
If it was the Simplified Style, it only needed to be created when it was generated. Once the summoning ended, it would return to its original form and would no longer consume the user's spell power. When it was needed, it could be taken out as a substitute and regenerated. There was no need to consume spell power.
Not only the Simplified Style, but also the Binding Style and Curse Style. When it wasn't needed, it would return to the form, and when it was needed, it would be generated by injecting spell power into the form. It was very convenient.
But the Servant-Style and Guardian Style were different. Usually, it wouldn't return to its original form. It would only remove the physical form and follow the user in the form of a spirit. It needed to continuously provide spell power, or else the summoning would be canceled.
Under such circumstances, the Yin-Yang Master who had the Servant-Style and Guardian Style would naturally have a large burden. If a Yin-Yang Master didn't have a certain level of Spiritual Power, they wouldn't be able to use the Servant-Style and Guardian Style. Therefore, those who could use the Guardian Style and Guardian Style had powerful Spiritual Power. Even among professional Yin-Yang Masters, only a few could reach this level. That was why being able to use the Guardian Style and Guardian Style was a symbol of status.
Of course, Yin-Yang Masters could also choose not to continuously summon the Servant-Style and Guardian Style. Normally, they could only carry the form and only summon it when necessary. But if they did that, they would lose the most important function of the Servant-Style and Guardian Style — 'personal protection of the Yin-Yang Master.'
For example, if Rozen didn't normally summon Seven Star and instead restored it to its original form, then Seven Star wouldn't be able to protect him when he was in danger.
On the other hand, as long as Rozen continued to summon Seven Star, then even if Rozen didn't have time to summon Seven Star in time, Seven Star would be able to materialize and protect him.
Having the Servant-Style and Guardian Style also had this benefit: it was a great guarantee of safety.
Although when the Spirit-branded Retainer didn't materialize, the consumption would still be reduced. Just like the master and servant, when the servant removed its materialization, it could also reduce the consumption of magic power. However, both sides still maintained the contract and the connection of Spiritual Power, which was necessary.
In this way, even professional Yin-Yang Masters couldn't casually have the Servant-Style and Guardian Style, but a mere first-year student actually had it, and it was an extremely rare and precious real dragon. Even if Rozen didn't do anything, just this alone was enough for the surrounding students to know how capable Rozen was.
Because of this, even if they had already guessed it, when they heard Rozen personally admit it, all the students present felt speechless.
Was it jealousy?
It should be, right?
Was it unwillingness?
It should be, right?
Being able to have the Servant-Style and Guardian Style proved that Rozen was at least outstanding in terms of Spiritual Power. Even professional Yin-Yang Masters might not be able to match up to Rozen, and Rozen would definitely have a bright future.
Having such an outstanding person in their class made them feel the difference between them in such a direct way, especially in the Yin-Yang Master world where talent and foundation were highly valued. They might not even be able to graduate successfully, nor might they be able to obtain official qualifications, but Rozen was destined to have all these things that they could only dream of. Who wouldn't be jealous and unwilling?
Not to mention, when they thought about how Rozen was the reincarnation of Night Light, a great person in the world of spells, as well as a sinner in history, everyone felt even more conflicted.
Even Kyōko Kurahashi felt conflicted, right?
But …
"Don't think that you're the only one who's special."
Kyōko Kurahashi made a hand seal, and the spell on her body rose.
"Come out! Black Maple! White Cherry! "
Following Kyōko Kurahashi's call, a white and black whirlwind appeared behind her, transforming into two human figures.
"Huh?"
Rozen raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"W-what?"
"What's that!?"
The students around them began to make a commotion.
Two Spirit-branded Retainers appeared behind Kyōko Kurahashi.
One Spirit-branded Retainer was white, while the other was black. They were humanoid, and they seemed like two combat experts who had gone through countless battles. Not only did they give off the aura of a master, but they were also fully equipped with knight's armor and two helmets on their heads. They seemed like two heavily armored knights from the middle ages, or two modern high-precision armed robots. It was obvious that they were extraordinary.
Upon closer inspection, the white Spirit-branded Retainer was holding a katana, while the black Spirit-branded Retainer was holding a katana. It was as if they were armed to the teeth.
Rozen recognized the two Spirit-branded Retainers in front of him.
They were mass-produced Spirit-branded Retainers created by the Yin Yang Hall's research and development department — "G2 Yaksha."
They were Spirit-branded Retainers famous for their agility and superb skills. Although they were mass-produced models, they had master-level close-range combat skills as a default configuration. Depending on the weapons they were equipped with, they also had different levels of combat skills.
The white one seemed to be called White Cherry, while the black one seemed to be called Black Maple. They each held a katana and a katana in their hands. It was obvious that they were masters of swordsmanship and saber techniques.
Needless to say, in order to make full use of these abilities, the user's control skills were very important. It was difficult enough to control one of them, but Kyōko Kurahashi was able to summon two at the same time, and she seemed to be very familiar with it. It was obvious that Kyōko Kurahashi was very powerful.
"They are my Retainers."
Kyōko Kurahashi looked at Rozen while maintaining the summoning.
"Qiu Guan of the Earth Imperial Sect, do you dare to have a spell battle with me?"
