Abnormal Moon

She glanced at the white-haired boy on the sidelines again, as if trying to memorize his appearance.

Suddenly, the white-haired boy seemed to notice her gaze and looked at her.

Kirin Toudou was startled and quickly looked away.

"Since that's the case, then I admit defeat and I surrender!"

Yulis placed her hand on the crimson lotus emblem on her chest.

"The duel is over. Julis Alexia von Risfeld surrenders. The winner is Kirin Toudou!"

The next moment, the Crimson Lotus Badge emitted a mechanical, electronic female voice.

Immediately afterwards, the red light shining from the crimson lotus badges on both sides' chests stopped, and as the school badges ceased functioning, it also symbolized the end of this duel.

"Toudou-kun, did you see the person who attacked me just now?"

"No, I'm sorry, I didn't see it either..."

Kirin Toudou gave Yulis an apologetic look.

Why are you apologizing?

Yulis smiled subtly and gave her a speechless look.

"Did you see who helped me just now? You should thank that person."

"Ah, I saw that!"

Upon hearing this, Kirin Toudou nodded repeatedly like a small animal.

She pointed towards the sidelines.

"It's over there...wait, where is everyone?"

She intended to point out the boy who had helped her earlier to Juliet, but when she looked over there again, she was stunned. The white-haired, red-eyed boy had disappeared without her noticing.

Are you looking for that person from earlier?

At this moment, the boy holding the filming equipment seemed to have seen through their intentions and came to them with a big smile.

"who are you?"

Euryth gave him a cold look.

"...No, Your Highness, couldn't you at least remember the names of your classmates?"

The boy was stunned for a moment, scratched his jellyfish-like hair that was a mix of gold and brown, and looked at the princess with a pained expression.

"I am Eishiro Yobuki, who is in the same class as you. Please remember me."

"is it?"

Yulis frowned and thought for a moment, vaguely remembering that there was such a person in her class.

"Do you know the person who helped me?"

"I know, because I filmed them all. You know I'm in the school's news department, so of course I'll run to wherever there's a duel!"

"I do not know."

"..."

Yobuki Eishiro fell silent for a moment.

"So who was the person who helped me just now? Do I need to pay for the video?"

Yulis's attitude was cold and distant. Even though she knew that Yobuki Eishiro was her classmate, she had no intention of getting along with him.

"This amount of information isn't worth spending money on."

Yobuki Eishiro shook his head helplessly, then showed the video he had filmed.

With a flick of his finger, a spatial window was projected into the air, playing the duel between the two, as well as the scene of the last entity darting past and blocking the light arrow.

In the video, he also casually rotated the equipment to take a picture of Roy's face.

Is this the person?

Yulis looked at the boy in the picture.

His striking white hair and red eyes caused her a momentary pang of pain.

"What about others?"

"The student council president came by just now, and he went with her."

Yobuki Eishiro stretched out his arms and hugged the back of his head, then laughed.

"He seems to be a special admission student at our school. He just joined today. Special admission students are usually quite famous. We should be able to find him by tomorrow at the latest."

"Special admissions students..."

Kirin Toudou lowered her head and murmured the word.

"The special admissions students introduced during this period were probably for that purpose, weren't they?"

"That's probably true."

Yoruichiro laughed heartily.

"It's July now, and there's only one month left until the Phoenix Star Martial Arts Festival starts. It's the last day to register... Speaking of which, Your Highness, didn't you also want to participate in the Phoenix Star Martial Arts Festival? Well, have you found your partner yet?"

"My affairs are none of your business."

Yulis gave Nightblower a cold look.

Yobuki Eishiro's words were like rubbing salt in the wound.

"Thank you for your information. Well then, I'll take my leave now."

As if driven by anxiety, as soon as she finished speaking, Eurythm quickly separated from the two of them and left.

Chapter 148 Super-Level Criminal

Kirin Toudou politely parted ways with Eishiro Yobuki, left the courtyard, and walked towards the sidewalk leading to the junior high school building.

Before long, she arrived at a corridor.

"uncle."

A middle-aged man had been waiting here for quite some time.

The man was around forty years old. Although he was middle-aged, he was very robust and tall, with broad shoulders and a solid chest, giving him a very powerful impression at first glance.

"too slow!"

The man looked at the silver-haired girl standing obediently in front of him and reprimanded her with a cold face.

"At your speed, you should be able to finish this battle quickly!"

"That's because someone ambushed Senior Yulis along the way..."

Kirin Toudou lowered her head and mumbled a reply.

"Don't try to deny it! Do you think I didn't see what happened during the duel?"

The middle-aged man suddenly raised his voice and shouted.

Kirin Toudou shrank her neck even further.

A mocking expression appeared on the man's face.

"And what was your reaction just now? Kirin, in that situation, what you should have done was take advantage of the opportunity when she was ambushed, quickly cut off her school badge, and win the duel! But you actually wanted to help her block the attack? What were you thinking!"

"Because if that happens, Senior Julis might get hurt..."

"That's because she's not strong enough! Anyway, the Star Pulse Generation won't die from something like this. It'll just be a few days in the hospital, what's the big deal!"

The middle-aged man's face was full of disapproval.

"Furthermore, what if she turns around and attacks you while you're shielding her from an attack, causing you to lose the duel? Have you considered that possibility? There are plenty of ungrateful people like that in the Star Pulse Generation!"

"This one……"

Kirin Toudou hesitated, unsure how to respond.

She hadn't even considered such a thing. When the arrow of light came at her, she instinctively tried to block it, without even thinking that Yulis might attack her.

"But, Senior Julis shouldn't be—"

"Snapped!"

Before she could finish speaking, the burly man's face turned angry, and he slapped her across the face.

"Don't talk back! Who do you think made you the number one in the Star Guide Hall?!"

The man looked down at his bright red palms and glared at Kirin Toto with disgust.

He was the one who slapped her, but all that was left on her face was a red handprint, while his own hand was throbbing with pain.

"Listen up, Kirin. All you need to think about is how to win the duel. Don't worry about anything else. Don't forget why you came to this Academy City!"

"Come with me, let's continue training. We absolutely cannot allow such naive thinking to happen again in the next ranking battle!"
