Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan
Chapter 62: What I like the most is beating up the light novel type of protagonist!

His voice was flat, clearly showing his disinterest.

Still, hearing his question, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"By the way, who is he?"

"Oh, right, he was the pervert that was beaten by the princess!"

"Pervert? Eh? The pervert wanted to challenge the King?" Sᴇaʀᴄh the NøvᴇlFirᴇ(.)nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

King.

This was the most suitable nickname for him.

He was absolute, and no one could defeat him.

While he hadn't reached rank one, everyone could tell that it was only time for him to become rank one.

Before, they might have thought of him as an invader, but now, he was a student of the Seidoukan, which meant he would be their classmate, so it was better to curry favor with him, right?

As for Amagiri, they didn't know anything about Amagiri Ayato except that he was a pervert.

"....." Amagiri.

Julis didn't say anything since Amagiri was indeed a pervert.

"AYATO ISN'T A PERVERT!"

However, Saya Sasamiya, his childhood friend, couldn't accept it.

Everyone quickly turned their attention to this girl, who was trying to help Amagiri.

She had a childish face, with adorably big eyes and an innocent shape. However, the one thing that everyone would notice immediately from her feature was her height which wasn't much different from an elementary school student.

In other words, she was short.

While usually her expression hardly changed and was almost doll-like, at this moment, she puffed her cheeks, showing how angry she was at the slander of the people on Amagiri. Yet, she felt that she needed to ask this problem to her childhood friend since there must be a reason why his childhood friend was called a pervert by everyone.

Still, Tamazuki stopped and looked at Amagiri. Unlike before, this guy didn't attract much attention, but now, Amagiri's expression was extremely serious, and he seemed to be righteous as if telling him that he would protect Julis no matter what.

Tamazuki felt speechless and annoyed by this type of protagonist. The more he saw this type of expression, the more he wanted to steal all the heroines on Amagiri's side. Still, he ignored all of them and looked at Claudia.

"Claudia, is he someone from Page Ones or Named Charts?"

Claudia shook her head at his question. "I have checked it. His name is Amagiri Ayato, and he is a special scholarship student."

"Oh!" As if he was surprised by this news, he asked, "Did he have some specialty or achievement outside?"

"No." Claudia shook her head. "I don't know why he received the special scholarship, but I guess he must have a relationship with the executive of Ginga."

In other words, it was nepotism.

He nodded, then looked at Amagari. "I don't have a hobby to bully the weak. Let's go."

Claudia nodded and followed him, and the rest also followed.

His words weren't surprising since Amagari was no one. It was a waste of time to fight him, especially when he had limited time to do his record.

Why should he waste his time with a weakling?

Everyone thought so, but Amagiri couldn't think the same.

"...."

Amagiri was speechless, but he didn't know how to refute Tamazuki's words.

Weak?

Well, he was, especially when the power on his body was sealed by his sister, but if he had unsealed his power, then it would be different.

"Hey, stop it." Suddenly, Julis interrupted Amagiri. "Since he came to me, he is confident in his strength. Even if he can't defeat me, being a part of Page One already shows his strength." As of now, she didn't think that she would lose to Tamazuki, but Amagiri was different. While she knew Amagiri had a good swordsmanship technique, she knew that his physical ability was just so-so.

Being underestimated like this, Amagiri didn't feel good, but suddenly Saya, who was on the side, shouted, "Hey, are you scared?"

Tamazuki stopped, looked at Saya in confusion, and then looked at Claudia. "Claudia, the Seidoukan doesn't have an elementary school, right?"

"That's right." Claudia nodded, but then she was confused. "Why did you ask that?"

"No, but there is an elementary school student here. Is she lost? Shouldn't you help her?"

"..." Everyone.

Saya clenched her fists hard, and she was so angry at being mocked as an elementary school student since it was her complex. She knew that she was short, so short that she would be mistaken as a little girl, yet, even so...

She took out her weapon and was ready to challenge him to a duel.

"Wait!"

Amagiri once again stood in front of Saya, then stared at Tamazuki. "I challenge you to a duel."

"Ayato!" Saya was surprised.

"Are you stupid?"

Julis was speechless since she had reminded him, but this guy was just stubborn.

Yet...

"Ten minutes."

"What?"

Everyone was confused.

"I only have ten minutes. Don't waste my time. Come on. Go outside."

"...."

His words were so arrogant, and he also didn't show a single doubt about his victory. He really didn't waste his time and confidently walked toward the field where they could do his battle.

Yet, strangely enough, the people around him didn't think that he was arrogant. Instead, they felt like it was Amagiri who was arrogant. However, this was a normal thing since they had seen him fighting so many people in a day, so they knew how powerful he was.

Meanwhile, Amagiri?

Who was he?

A pervert?

How dare a pervert to challenge the King?

"Are you crazy?!" Julis looked at Amagiri as if she was looking at an idiot.

"No, Ayato will win!" However, Saya, the childhood friend, believed that Amagiri could win. "Ayato beat him up for me! How dare he mock me that I am an elementary school student?!"

Surrounded by Saya and Julis, Amagiri could only show an awkward smile as he scratched his cheek helplessly.

"Hey Amagiri, hurry up! Don't waste his time!"

Yet, unexpectedly, Yabuki Eishirou was on the side of Tamazuki now.

---

Then, their battle was about to start.

Tamazuki and Amagiri were facing each other while being surrounded by a large audience.

Still, while Tamazuki had Claudia by his side, Amagiri had Saya on his side.

As for Julis, she joined the crowd.

"What's your weapon specialty?"

As usual, Tamazuki asked casually, which made everyone smile.

However, Julis was confused and then asked Yabuki, who was by her side, "Why did he ask this question?"

"...you really didn't know anything, did you?" Yabuki was speechless. "Well, you will know soon."

Julis frowned, showing her displeasure, but she didn't say anything.

"Er... a sword?" Amigiri was confused, but he still answered.

"Okay." Tamazuki nodded and took out a sword-type Lux.

"..." Saya, Julis, and Amagiri.

"This... what is he planning to do?" Julis asked in confusion. "Is this his specialty sword?"

"No." Yabuki shook his head. "If you watched his fight, you wouldn't need to ask this question, but let me tell you that his trademark is to defeat someone with their most confidence skill."

"Huh?! Isn't he too arrogant?!" Julis was even more displeased.

"With Lester, he won with his physical ability alone. With the others, he won with the skills their opponent was most proud of. This is just my guess, but he might be able to copy any technique with just a glance."

"Copy any techniques with a glance? Also, did you say that he beat Lester by strength?!"

Even though she had won against Lester twice, she knew in terms of close combat, she wasn't Lester's opponent, yet Tamazuki won with something that his opponent was proud of the most.

While Julis was dumbfounded, Amagiri suddenly said something outrageous before the battle. "Yabuki, can you lend me your sword?"

"....." Everyone.
