Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

"...."

At that moment, the whole city was quiet.

It was something that had never happened before, but this happened.

All of them opened their eyes and mouths wide before angrily pointing their fingers at the screen or radio.

"I WILL KILL YOU, BASTARD!"

"DAMMIT, WHAT AN ARROGANT BITCH!"

"IF I CAN'T BEAT HIM UP LATER, THEN I WILL CHANGE MY NAME TO SHIT!"

Every student who happened to watch the Jie Long tournament was furious, and they couldn't help but want to have a duel with Tamazuki.

However, the reporters felt like a beautiful flower blooming in front of them. They were so happy since they could get such big news.

Meanwhile, the scouts were helpless since they knew that they had to prepare something big to attract him, yet inwardly, they had to say they felt this young man was too arrogant.

Yet, the angriest among all of them was, without a doubt, the students of Jie Long!

All of them knew instantly that this tournament was nothing but just a stepping stone and a means for him to advertise himself!

At this moment, the whole Jie Long unified and swore to take down Tamazuki!

Still, unlike the other students of Jie Long, Xinglou laughed happily like a child who received a gift from her parents for Christmas. Yet Hufeng, who was by her side, was unable to react like her master. Instead, he was also furious at how arrogant his words were!

Yet, Tamazuki acted like everything had nothing to do with him, and he walked calmly to Irene and Priscilla.

"Yo!"

He greeted them with a smile.

"Don't you "yo" me, you bastard!"

Irene grabbed his collars and shook them furiously. "What the hell did you just do?!"

Priscilla could only show an awkward smile, feeling helpless.

Yet, it was normal for them to think so since what this guy had done was just too outrageous!

He was provoking all the students in the entire Asterisk!

He was asking for all of them to become his enemies!

Even Irene, ranked third on the entire Le Wolfe, didn't dare to do so, yet this scoundrel dared to do so!

"It's okay. It's okay. How about we go back now? My match will start tomorrow, and I am a bit hungry."

"...." 2x

Here, they were worried about him, yet he was only hungry. Their hearts felt conflicted, but they had to admit that his heart was as strong as ever.

Irene somehow understood why this guy dared to rob a casino on his first day on the Asterisk and even seduced her and her sister at the same time.

"Are you sure that you want to do this? Don't you regret saying all of that?"

Irene asked in a complicated mood.

Priscilla also looked at him worriedly.

"I am sorry."

He rubbed their heads at the same time tenderly as his gaze softened. "I must have worried you two, but I can't see any options to make myself stronger than this method. I have to push myself harder, and this is what I have to do."

"Inugami-san..."

"Tamazuki..."

It might be their first time seeing him have such an expression, yet it made their hearts skip.

"Don't stop me, okay? I am going to push myself even harder."

He might die in his original world, so how could he relax in this world?

The threat in this world was relatively small compared to his world, so he was going to go all out, pushing himself to the limit.

But...

"It hurts!"

Irene held her forehead since it was flicked by him.

"Let's go back. I am a bit hungry. Priscilla, I want a paella!" He wrapped his hand around Pricilla like it was the most natural thing.

"Ah, um..." Priscilla looked at him helplessly, but Irene was furious.

"Bastard, don't seduce my sister!"

Irene grabbed his collar, ready to fight him. Still, she also felt a bit hurt since this guy was gentle with Priscilla, yet why was he so rough with her?

Yet Priscilla had to say this banter was comfortable, and it felt nice if the three of them could stay forever.

Still, a voice interrupted them.

"Excuse me, are you Inugamigyoubu Tamazuki-san?"

A profoundly serene voice rang out, attracting their attention. As they turned, they saw a girl with blinding platinum-blond hair appear before them.

She was beautifully calm, mellow way, a bit similar to Priscilla, yet unlike Priscilla, who gave off a cute girl next door, this girl appeared so elegant, like a princess of a certain country.

Up close, they could see that she was so stunning that Irene and Priscilla felt quite threatened for some reason, especially her chest. Her ample breasts strained the cut of her school uniform, and her curves were generous enough to inspire awe.

Whether Irene or Priscilla, they weren't bad, but this girl was on another level.

Yet, Tamazuki felt weird.

Why was this girl here?

Shouldn't she be interested in the protagonist?

Why should she appear before him?

What about the protagonist?

Frankly, he was thinking of joining the Le Wolfe since he was too lazy to steal the girls from the protagonist since he knew that it would be quite hard to do so.

The protagonist might be dull and indecisive, but he had this "yasashi" trait, which made him able to swoon over any girls on the Asterisk.

If the protagonist was a little bolder, then he would make a harem already, yet this was how the protagonist was, right?

In that case, he might as well become their enemy, using the means of the villain to get the girls.

Yet, all of a sudden, one of the main heroines appeared before him.

He felt baffled, but he forcefully calmed himself. "You are?"

"How cruel!"

"...."

The girl seemed to be on the verge of crying. "How could you forget about me?"

"....." 2x

He could feel the stares of Irene and Priscilla were somehow kind of hurt, but who was he?

"I am sorry, but if you want to do a prank, it's not funny. You should choose someone else. Let's go back, Priscilla, Irene."

His expression was serious, and he clearly told this girl that her joke wasn't funny.

Pricilla and Irene felt a little guilty for doubting him, and they also followed while looking at the platinum blonde-haired girl with an unpleasant gaze, but the girl lost her calm.

"Wait a moment!"

However, he didn't stop and ignored her.

"Wait a moment! I am the president of the Seidoukan Academy, Claudia Enfield. I was the one who sent you a special scholarship invitation!"

Claudia couldn't lose him. No, she didn't want to lose him, so she hurriedly chased him and stood before him, trying to stop him.

"Did you get a special scholarship from the Seidoukan, Inugami-san?" Priscilla asked curiously.

"Probably." He thought for a moment. "But if you don't remind me, I totally forget about it."

"...." 3x

"Let me say it once again, then." Claudia put her hand on her chest as she put on her best smile. "I, no, we, the Seidoukan, wish to make you the student of our school, and we will give you the best treatment to make you stronger from the best teacher, the best training facilities, free scholarship, and everything as long as you are able to give us a glory known as the Grand Slam.

"Ah, if you don't know, our school also possesses the most Orga Lux among the six schools. When you enter our school, you can choose whichever you want as long as it fits you."

Still, Priscilla and Irene weren't sure why they felt a weird feeling came from this beautiful president council of the Seidoukan.

Then, suddenly, an overwhelming mass and unparalleled softness were pressing against his chest.

Claudia suddenly hugged him.

"What?!" 2x

Priscilla and Irene lost their calm as they stood in a daze.

"If-If you want to, you can have me too, you know?"

Claudia looked at him shyly.

"YOU BITCH!" Irene was ready to take out her weapon to hack this vixen in half.

"Irene, calm down."

However, his voice stopped her.

"Tamazuki, but..."

"Calm down."

"...are you going to accept her invitation?" Irene asked sullenly, and her voice was filled with sadness.

He was speechless since sometimes it was too easy for a girl to fall in love.

Priscilla was also in a similar situation, but unlike her sister, who was blunt, she couldn't say so since she knew with their relationship, she didn't have a right to control him.

However, he ignored them and asked, "Enfield-san, is it?"

"Please call me Claudia."

Claudia kept hugging him since she knew that she had finally met him. She had almost given up many times, but finally, she found him, so how could she give him up?

"Enfield-san, I am happy with your invitation, but do you believe in me? Do you think I can achieve the Grand Slam?"

He pretended that he didn't hear her request and called her by her family name.

"Yes." She nodded with a bright smile. "I believe in you. I believe that you can grant that victory that you have promised before."

There was no trace of doubt in her voice since she truly believed so.

"Thank you." He also smiled. "I am happy."

"Then..." Her heart bloomed, and finally, she could be with him, but...

"But as a girl, you should treasure yourself more, and I don't like a girl who gives herself to others easily, especially for a gentleman that you have just met."

He gently pushed her away, then said, "I will consider your invitation after winning this tournament. Then, excuse me." He then left without much of a change in his expression. He didn't show much regret since, unexpectedly, it was so easy for him to get a reward, which made him even speechless.

<Congratulations, you have received an "Immunity">

"What are you standing silly there for? Let's go back, Priscilla, Irene."

"Ye-Yes!"

Priscilla quickly chased after him with a smile.

"Bitch."

Irene mocked Claudia before she leaped into him happily, jumping into his back.

His response was so calm and mature, which surprised them, yet this made them so happy.

Yet, for Cladia, she was at a loss, as she thought her world was crumbling. She saw "him" being taken by others, yet she couldn't do anything.

"Ah, pl-please wait for a moment...!"

She was desperate and wanted to chase after him, but she wasn't the only one attracted by his might.

"Since you want the best, how about you join Jie Long? I will personally teach you."
