Abnormal Moon

"Um……"

Night Breeze came to his side, watching the girl happily leave with her pen and paper, a meaningful smile appearing on her face.

"Roy, is this the first time someone has asked you for an autograph?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

Roy said dismissively.

Walking down the street today, he was constantly met with admiring and adoring glances, as if he had become a celebrity overnight. And it was indeed true. Roy quite liked the feeling of being watched by countless people. Back in Fuyuki, although he was also watched by countless people, he was watched as a thorn in their side, which was completely different from the feeling he had now.

"I guarantee that your signature will appear online and be auctioned off within ten minutes."

"...Haha, no way."

"That senior from the undergraduate department is quite a celebrity; her nickname is 'the autograph collector.'"

Ye Chui looked at him with a smile, a hint of pity mixed with schadenfreude.

"This is the first step that everyone who becomes famous has to go through. Just focus on experiencing this bittersweet feeling, haha!"

Roy's smile cracked for a moment.

Ha ha.

I swear, I'll remember her.

"Speaking of which, is Toudou Koichiro still alive?"

The two carried their trays and sat down in a corner. Roy remembered something and asked Yoruichi.

"They're probably gone by now."

As Ye Chui stirred the curry rice in her plate with a spoon, she pondered her answer.

"I heard that after the simulation battle ended yesterday, he packed his things and ran away overnight. He should have already left Rikka by boat. You all announced the bets on the radio. The longer he stays on the island, the more he will be ridiculed. He can't afford to lose face like that."

"But you really stole the show in yesterday's simulation battle. Most of the students in our school probably know you by now. They even gave you the nickname 'Tyrant' on the school forum!"

"...Isn't that the case?"

"Of course it is!"

Seeing his nonchalant expression, Ye Chui was speechless. He took out his phone and sent out a spatial window.

The video shows a montage of yesterday's simulated battle. Roy took a step forward and slashed at Kagura Kirin, sending her staggering back more than ten steps. He shattered the meteor fighting technique unleashed by the Pure Star Blade Armor with one strike and nearly shattered the defensive barrier with another.

"The general consensus is that your fighting style is 'extremely violent'."

"To be honest, I was just fighting in a very ordinary way."

Roy offered a defense.

"But people don't think so."

Night Breeze shrugged and chuckled.

"Just accept your fate. Nicknames that are widely accepted will most likely be officially recognized and registered by the academy."

In the six academies of the City of Learning and War, those who have nicknames are generally powerful individuals listed in the Book of Names. Some of these nicknames are chosen by the individuals themselves, while others are given by the school. For example, Kirin Toudou's "Swift Blade Lightning," Yulis's "Blossom Witch," and Tono Hyakushihime's "Thunder," etc. These nicknames are all registered in the school's records and will accompany the Star Vein for generations.

There are also some nicknames that are spontaneously chosen by the public. These nicknames are usually not adopted by the school, but once the name becomes widely known and recognized by many people, and then this person enters the official name book, then this nickname will become an official nickname and be recorded by the school.

Thanks to the fact that Roy is not yet listed in the Book of Names, the title of "Tyrant," which embodies the full power of chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur), will only circulate among the common people for now.

That's great.

"Not only that, your rankings on Poetry Mead and the Six Thousand Temples are also quite high!"

"what are you saying?"

"This one, this one."

Night Blow threw two more space windows over.

They appear to be two websites, both meticulously constructed, and containing very detailed text and video materials.

"In this battle city, although each academy has its own ritual books to measure the strength of its students, everyone in this city where battles are the main focus wants to know who is stronger between the top students of different academies. For example, who is stronger, the top student of our academy or the top student of the Quincy Academy? However, the top students of different academies rarely fight each other directly except at the Star Martial Festival. Therefore, many people collect data and create websites to rank the strength of all students in the battle city. The most famous of these are Poetry Honey Wine and Six Thousand Temples. Don't underestimate them. These two websites receive tens of millions of views from all over the world every day. They can be said to be world-famous. They can earn a lot of money from advertising every year!"

so smart?

Roy perked up, put his food aside, and began to carefully examine the two websites.

"Of these two websites, Poetry Wine has existed since the early days of the Six Flowers Academy. It has a history of seventy years and has always been managed by an individual. Its characteristic is that it only ranks students from the Six Flowers Academy who meet the requirements for participating in the Star Martial Festival. Moreover, it is very fair. It is said that many casinos will also refer to this when setting odds when opening gambling games."

"The Six Thousand Temples website is relatively new, but it has its own unique features. It uses a unique system that allows everyone to participate in the evaluation, which is like a fan vote. There is also a comprehensive ranking that includes all the contestants in the history of Six Flowers, which is very interesting!"

Chapter 173 All Six Flowers, Sixth

Upon hearing Ye Chui's introduction, Roy immediately turned his attention to the Poetry Wine website.

Only students who meet the requirements for participating in the Star Martial Arts Festival are ranked, that is, only all active contestants are ranked. The strongest on this list are Roy's main opponents - if he participates in other Star Martial Arts Festivals in the future.

The poem-infused mead ranks first, Reeves Black Academy, the Lone Poison Witch, Ophelia Landorufen.

Clicking on the name brings up a pop-up window with a very detailed introduction of the contestant, a pentagon diagram, and a photo.

The girl in the photo has striking white hair and red eyes, just like Roy.

The pentagonal pattern that displays the strength analysis evaluates five aspects: melee combat, ranged combat, stellar power, ability, and weaponry. Each aspect is further subdivided into several smaller categories.

Ophelia, the Poisonous Witch: None in melee combat, S++ in ranged combat, S++ in star power, S++ in ability, none in weaponry, overall rating S++.

"It's so powerful and easy to see from the analysis charts alone."

Roy raised an eyebrow at the sight.

Clicking on a battle video of Ophelia, you can see the white-haired, red-eyed girl simply standing there, her eyes lowered, not even focusing her gaze on her opponent, while her entire body continuously emits boundless purple gas, which transforms into giant hands that completely engulf her opponent.

The battle scene was very simple and straightforward, with the overwhelming power crushing the opponent. The opponent had no chance to resist at all, and the girl was not fighting at all but casually dealing with the troublesome insects.

Roy felt that this girl was far more deserving of the title of tyrant than he was.

"Ophelia Landorufen, although a high school student, has participated in two King Dragon Star Martial Arts Festivals and won the championship both times. She is the second person in history to achieve a two-time consecutive King Dragon Championship, and she is also the first person to receive an S++ rating in more than ten years. Many people even believe that she can easily win the third King Dragon Championship. She is recognized as the first of the Six Flowers Queens to achieve an unprecedented three-time consecutive King Dragon Championship."

When Ye Chui saw the figure appearing in Roy's spatial window, his usually frivolous expression turned serious.

“Usually, we students in these academies hope that our school’s number one ranking can beat the number one ranking of other schools. But if we encounter Ophelia Landorufen, even if we are students in our own school, we don’t expect to beat her. It’s normal to be beaten by her. You would feel the same way.”

Roy is now widely recognized as the number one ranked member of the Star Guide Hall, although he is not listed in the Book of Famous Priests.

Even if he were to face Ophelia, the students at Seidoukan wouldn't believe he would win. If they were to make a bet, the only option they could bet on was that Roy would be defeated within minutes, not that he would win.

Roy didn't say anything, but silently memorized the girl's appearance.

"What are you all talking about? Is it so lively that you've forgotten to eat?"

At that moment, a voice, both indifferent and familiar, rang out.

The two turned to look, and saw that as her rose-colored hair swayed in the breeze, Eurythmia had already sat down next to them with a plate.

"Um, excuse me..."

Beside them followed a silver-haired, youthful-looking, large-breasted junior who bowed timidly to the two of them.

How did you two end up together?

"It was just a chance encounter while I was queuing."

Eurythm gave a dismissive reply, her gaze inadvertently drifting towards the spatial window in front of Roy.

The moment the white-haired, red-eyed girl came into view, Yulis froze, her breath caught in her throat, and her veins seemed to freeze.

"that is……"

"Oh, I'm looking at the rankings on the Poetry Meadow."

Roy glanced at Euryth and noticed her face had turned quite frightening.

He didn't say anything, but silently closed the pop-up and returned to the rankings interface.

"Poetry-infused mead? I know that too. Where does Senior Roy rank now?"

Upon hearing this, Kirin Toudou's eyes lit up, and she asked with great interest.

"Let me see."

Roy continued scrolling down.

Second on the list is Sylvia Lunelheim, the War Witch from Quinvette Academy.

Upon seeing the girl with long, dark purple hair in the photo, Roy's first impression was that she was very beautiful. His second impression was that the name sounded familiar. After thinking for a moment, he realized that she was the world-famous songstress that Yoru had mentioned earlier.

Later, I saw names like Janist Fairclaw, Wu Xiaohui, and Laudford Zopo.

Then came Roy's name.

I'm sixth.

"Amazing!"

Kirin Toudou looked at Roy with delight and admiration in her eyes.

"When I was ranked number one at Seidakan, I could only be ranked fifteenth!"
