This coaching is not right.

The bell rang, and the students in the classroom began to pack up their things, preparing to leave. Kanzaki didn't move; he turned his head directly, his sharp gaze fixed on Ichinose and Itosawa.

"Have you two been practicing some new trick behind my back?" Kanzaki's eyes were fixed on the two of them. "How come you have this kind of trick up your sleeve?"

Ichinose was completely baffled by Kanzaki's question. She blinked her big eyes, looked at Kanzaki with a blank expression, and asked in surprise, "Eh, Kanzaki-san, what kind of move are you talking about practicing?"

Seeing Ichinose's reaction, Kanzaki immediately realized she was unaware of the situation. A knowing glint flashed in his eyes, then he turned intently to Itosawa, clearly waiting for his explanation.

Ichinose's question went unanswered by Kanzaki, but she quickly realized that only Ito Sawa knew the truth.

So she turned her head and looked at Ito Sawa with her clear eyes, waiting for his answer.

Ito Sawa met their gazes and said calmly, "Actually, I only just discovered it myself. I can guide Ichinose's special ability."

He didn't reveal the whole truth. He knew that if you didn't understand the nature of Ichinose's passive skill, you wouldn't know how to counter her.

Moreover, maintaining a certain degree of mystery can give you a more advantageous position in this game.

Although Kanzaki is now a teammate, Ito Sawa still remembers his actions in the original work, and he must be wary that Kanzaki might betray their information in the future.

Kanzaki was also a little stunned after hearing his answer. He didn't expect such an answer, but he quickly turned his gaze to Ichinose, worried about her reaction.

After all, he would feel uncomfortable if someone told him that his superpowers could be controlled by others.

Unexpectedly, Ichinose's eyes lit up with curiosity and surprise upon hearing Ito Sawa's words. A cute smile appeared on her lips: "Eh, Ito-san, can you really guide my ability? Then can we cooperate better in the future?"

Her voice held a hint of excitement, clearly indicating her delight at the new discovery. Her reaction caused both Itosawa and Kanzaki to unconsciously relax.

Kanzaki's brow relaxed slightly. He nodded and turned to Ito Sawa: "If you can really do that, then our strength will indeed be greatly improved."

Ito Sawa looked at Ichinose with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "Yes, Ichinose. We can cooperate better in the future and exert greater strength."

After Ichinose understood what had happened, he quickly acted as if nothing had happened and invited Itosawa and Kanzaki to have lunch together.

Ito Sawa was taken aback, only then realizing that the history lesson on supernatural abilities had been going on all morning, and it was already noon. It really was time for lunch.

The three of them arrived at the cafeteria together. Ito Sawa's gaze swept across the cafeteria, and he noticed that there were still a few empty seats in the front row. He wanted to pull them over and sit down.

However, Kanzaki quickly stopped him. Kanzaki's expression was serious, and he warned Ito Sawa in a low voice, "Those seats are reserved for the stronger seniors. Sitting in those seats will be seen as provocation. With our abilities, we have no chance of defeating them, so you absolutely must not sit in those seats."

Ito Sawa noticed the situation around him and found that it was indeed the case; everyone was consciously avoiding those locations.

Just then, he saw several familiar faces casually walk to that spot—the trio of idiots led by Sudo from Class D.

Along the way, some people tried to persuade them with good intentions, but Sudo's response was to raise his fist, which then burst into flames, threatening them. Naturally, no one paid him any more attention.

Kanzaki pulled them to a seat, then pointed at them and said, "If you don't believe me, you can see how they were thrown out."

Inside the cafeteria, the tense atmosphere gradually intensified. Ito Sawa, Ichinose, and Kanzaki noticed the behavior of several upperclassmen. They had originally planned to make their move after the Sudo trio sat down, but after seeing the seats the upperclassmen had chosen, their expressions turned strange. They returned to their seats, their eyes gleaming with schadenfreude, as if waiting for a good show to unfold.

Soon, the two main characters appeared at the cafeteria entrance: one was a mature man with a cool face and glasses, and the other was a girl with purple hair in a bun.

Ito Sawa quickly recognized them: student council president Horikita Manabu and his secretary, Tachibana Akane. He couldn't help but feel sorry for the Sudo trio, because they seemed completely unaware of what they were about to face.

Horikita Manabu and Tachibana Akane noticed the Sudo trio sitting in their seats. Horikita Manabu's expression remained calm, but Tachibana Akane's face darkened. Horikita Manabu gave them a chance, his voice calm but firm: "These are our seats. I suggest you leave."

The three Sudo members, however, were unimpressed. Sudo wore a provocative smile and retorted dismissively, "Why should I? Your names aren't written here."

Horikita Manabu didn't say much, only giving them a brief, indifferent glance. But Tachibana Akane couldn't hold back any longer; a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes, and her voice was icy: "These are student council rules, don't you know that?"

Sudo sneered and suddenly threw a fiery punch at Horikita Manabu's face, flames blazing on his fist. Before Horikita could retaliate, Tachibana Akane acted first. A layer of ice erupted from her palm, the chill rapidly spreading to form a perfect ice-sealed domain. When Sudo's flames touched Tachibana Akane's ice, they were like candles suddenly extinguished; the flames froze, turning into ice crystals.

Akane's movements were elegant and swift; with a gentle wave of her hand, Sudo and his companion were instantly frozen in a thin layer of ice. Her control was incredibly precise, without affecting anything else. Horikita Manabu watched her reaction without saying anything, simply nodding silently.

Tachibana Akane moved the three ice sculptures to the entrance of the cafeteria, where they stood like new-style door gods to anyone who didn't know better. The students in the cafeteria were stunned, staring at Tachibana Akane with eyes full of awe.
