Without Alona, ​​I can only use the airdrop system.

Hina was taken aback; she hadn't expected Nero to make such a request.

However, I can understand it from the perspective of the other students, because she is the one who stole their beloved teacher.

Although the teacher just stated that he would still fulfill his responsibilities as a teacher and maintain a fair stance, this slightly alleviated the other students' doubts.

However, some students who have a natural affinity for their teachers probably won't leave just like that.

Nero was just one of them.

Hina also wanted to test the results of the special training she had received from the professor during this period.

Hina released her teacher's hand and said calmly, "Alright, I'll accompany you. Let's meet on the playground of Gehenna Academy. However, I'm afraid you can't manage alone."

"Huh?" Nero's veins bulged. "You want us, C&C, to come at you together? Isn't that a bit too arrogant?"

“No.” Hina shook her head. “It’s all of you who came here. I can fight you all, and you don’t need to hold back. Just use your full strength.”

"Huh?" Hoshino's eyes widened in disbelief. "Hina, are you serious?"

"What does that disciplinary committee chairperson mean by this? She's so arrogant!" Serika couldn't hold back anymore. "I thought she was only going to fight those four maids, but I didn't expect her to include us all!"

"..." Bai Zi gripped the gun hanging from his shoulder strap. "Then let's go together."

"Looks like Shirako-chan wants to vent her frustrations too~." Hoshino chuckled. "Then let's have a big commotion together."

"Really?!" Upon hearing this, Mika immediately raised her head, her expression filled with disbelief.

She was feeling really upset, and maybe it would make her feel much better if she could fight with that disciplinary committee leader.

Thinking of this, she clenched her fists.

Seeing the fighting spirit of Mika, Seiya and Nagisa shook their heads helplessly.

"...Then I won't participate." Yuka sighed, rubbing her forehead.

Although Yuka was heartbroken that her teacher had someone else in mind, it wasn't enough to warrant a fight to vent her anger. Besides, she needed to calm herself down first.

However, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax, and the students present were also discussing it.

"Is Hina going to fight so many students?!" One of the students with short white hair was a little worried. "Those people don't look like easy targets."

"Don't worry about Erika, Hina will definitely win!" The pink-haired student next to the white-haired student was full of confidence in Hina.

“Is that so…” The student called Erika was embarrassed. “However, Kira, your intuition is always very accurate. Maybe Hina really can beat them.”

After some time, the group arrived at Gehenna's playground.

"Don't you need the teacher's help?" Nero frowned slightly when he saw that the teacher was watching from the back instead of coming forward.

“Because it’s unnecessary.” Hina’s expression was unusually calm, and she hadn’t made any preparations.

"I don't know where you get your confidence from," Nero stretched out his limbs and grinned, "but since you've made this request, it'll be hard to leave without giving you a good beating!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Nero arrived in front of Hina at lightning speed!

Just as Nero was about to raise his twin pistols, Hina struck Nero in the waist with the butt of a machine gun, sending him flying to the ground some distance away with tremendous force!

"boom--!"

At the same time, Mika also moved, firing a bullet that resembled pink starlight energy at Hina.

Hina immediately aimed at the incoming bullet and fired a purple beam of light.

"boom--!"

After the purple and pink beams of light collided, the purple light wave actually broke through the pink light of Wei Hua and hit Wei Hua at an extremely fast speed, knocking Wei Hua far away!

In just two rounds of exchange, the students participating in the competition became serious.

Because Hina's current strength has risen to a higher level compared to before!

"I'll hold her off!"

Hoshino's gaze turned serious. He unfolded his shield, rushed to the front, and signaled the others to immediately unleash their firepower on Hina.

Instantly, a barrage of firepower rushed toward Hina, but Hina was completely undaunted, braving the intense fire to fire machine guns at Hoshino and the others.

"Hina-chan has become so strong..."

Hoshino was quite surprised to see the group of students who were being suppressed by Hina's overwhelming firepower and unable to stand out.

Based on past experience, Hina was actually more afraid of close combat when their strength was equal.

However, judging from her performance just now, Hina has mastered a set of physical techniques that she doesn't know who taught her, which has made up for this weakness.

At that moment, in the blind spot where Hina was unleashing her firepower, Mika, who had been previously repelled, suddenly appeared on both sides behind Hina, her gun pointed at Hina's back!

The next moment, Hina stopped shooting, turned around, slung the gun over her back, raised her fist, and charged at Mika.

Not to be outdone, Mika also switched from gun to fists and began to fight Hina.

"boom!"

The collision of the two fists produced a tremendous sound and even a terrifying shockwave, which knocked Nero, who was about to shoot Hina, back.

After exchanging punches, Mika saw Hina's composed little face and felt inexplicably angry.

Hina and Mika then engaged in a rapid and intense exchange of blows.

Because the two were fighting, the other students couldn't shoot and could only watch. Only Karin, who was using a sniper rifle, was still looking for an opportunity to aim, but because Hina and Mika were quite fast, she had to give up in the end.

The fight between the two became increasingly intense, and later on, each punch produced a distinct whooshing sound.

After exchanging blows for a while, Mika defeated Hina with her superior strength!

"Chance!!"

Seeing that Hina had been repelled, the students immediately opened fire on him!

"Da da da da da!!! Boom—pong—!"

A barrage of gunfire erupted, and Hina, caught off guard, was hit by a hail of bullets and explosions, soon engulfed in the smoke and fumes!

Such an offensive terrified the students watching.

They knew very well that if it were them, they wouldn't be able to defeat Nero and Mika alone.

But not only did Hinata begin to dominate, he also withstood so much firepower. There are very few people in the entire Kiwatos who can do that.

Only the teacher, Ako, and the disciplinary committee members who knew Hina's true strength showed little emotion, appearing completely unconcerned.

After the barrage of fire subsided, everyone involved in the battle anxiously watched the outcome.

However, before the smoke and dust had cleared, Hina calmly walked out. Her body was covered in dust, but there were no obvious injuries, only a few scratches.

"........"

Everyone present fell silent.

If such intense firepower can only scratch Hina's surface, then the outcome of this sparring match is obvious.

"We, C&C, concede defeat!!!"

Upon seeing this, Nero immediately raised his hand in signal.

"Hey, we at Abydos Academy concede defeat~." Hoshino responded in kind.

"..." Shirako, standing next to Hoshino, drooped her wolf ears, clearly not in a good mood.

"I also admit defeat."

Wei Hua breathed a sigh of relief; perhaps having vented her frustrations, she felt better.

This time, the entire venue erupted in cheers.

The teachers and members of the disciplinary committee rushed to Hina's side as soon as the competition ended.

Ayako first took out a handkerchief to wipe the dust off Hina's body, and then the teacher took out a band-aid and put it on the place where Hina's skin was scratched. After putting it on, she affectionately patted Hina's head.

"Hina, thank you for your hard work."

"Teacher, this is so embarrassing."

Because it was a public place, Hina felt a little embarrassed even though she and her teacher were a couple.

“Our relationship has already been made public, so this is just something that needs to be done.”

Looking at Hina's fair and tender face, the teacher wished she could take a bite.

However, reason prevailed and stopped him.

It's best to do these things privately.

Finally, the crowd began to disperse, and Shino from Kronos Academy gave a brief interview to his teacher and Hina.

After the students had all left, Iori and Chinatsu reported to Hina with delight.

"Chairman, all members of the Hot Spring Development Department, except for Minister Xia, have been captured!"

"The same goes for the Gourmet Research Club; everyone was captured by us, but we successfully rescued Kaede from the Food Department!"

"Well done, thank you for your hard work." Hina smiled at the two of them.

Iori and Chinatsu were also happier than ever before.

After all, they no longer needed Hina's help to handle the previously extremely difficult hot spring development department and food research association on their own, which meant they had already lightened Hina's burden.

He even received praise from Hina.

"That's wonderful!" Iori's joy was palpable. "All that grueling training we went through was worth it!"

Chinatsu also looked extremely relaxed: "We can finally help the chairman!"

This was the first time they had genuinely smiled because they could help lighten Hina's burden.

"Well then, Chairperson, Teacher," Ako said, looking at Hina and the teacher, "you two haven't been relaxing lately. We'll handle the Disciplinary Committee matters today. You two go and have a good date!"

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." Hina nodded frankly, then took her teacher's hand. "Teacher, may I visit the Hyakki Yagyō Academy?"

"Of course! Let's go now!"

........

Some time later, at the Millennium Academy, in the seminar office.

When Yuka opened the office door, she found Noah already waiting at the door.

"Noah, what happened to you... ugh!"

"Yuka." Noah pulled Yuka's head to her chest and gently stroked her blue hair. "I understand how you feel now. There's no one else here, so let it all out."

"Noah, what are you doing?!" Yuka's voice wasn't quiet, but she didn't resist violently. "I'm fine! I........ Waaah—"

Noah could feel a surge of heat flowing through his chest, so he continued to stroke Yuka's hair.

Noah felt the same sadness as Yuka.

But the teacher made his own choice regarding his feelings, and they no longer had a chance.

Now, all I can do is offer my blessings.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the same time, at Trinity College, in Weihua's dormitory.

Wei Hua wiped away her unstoppable tears at the tea table, then burst into loud sobs.

"It's alright, Mika, it's alright..." Nagisa came to Mika's side and gently patted her back.

As the hero who saved Trinity, how could Nagisa not have high hopes for him?

But she knew in her heart that her past actions and inner guilt completely overshadowed this girlish longing, so that feeling could only be kept hidden.

"Mika, what would you like to eat now? I'll have someone buy it for you." Nagisa thought of a way to comfort Mika. "Let's have a private tea party together, the three of us."

"Mmm!" Mika sobbed, her eyes red, "I'm going to eat my fill today!"

Meanwhile, at the Hyakki Yagyō Academy, in the Ninjutsu Research Department.

Mitsuru and Tsukuyo looked at Izuna, who was staring blankly out the window, their faces filled with worry.

"Senpai, is Izuna-chan alright?"

"Mainly because she was completely distraught after seeing the news on TV," Man said helplessly to Tsukuyomi. "After all, it must be tough for Izuna to have her beloved lord taken away by someone else..."

"Your Excellency Man, Your Excellency Tsukuyomi!"

At this moment, Izuna turned to look at Mitsu and Tsukuyo, and returned to her previous innocent and romantic self.

"!!"

Tsukuyomi and Mando were both taken aback.

"What kind of ninjutsu research are we doing today? Izuna, I'm very curious!!"

“Izuna…you…” Man was about to ask something, but decided not to.

"Lord Man, Izuna is alright!" Izuna said with a smile. "This is just one of the ninja trials!"

"Yes, yes!" Tsukuyomi was also very happy to see Izuna regain his energy. "I believed that Lord Izuna could do it!"

"..." Man seemed to have noticed something, but didn't say anything, and responded with a smile in return.

Abydos College.

It was nearly dusk in the Abydos region at this time.

"Shirako and the others have already gone home." Nomiya looked at Hoshino, who was still in the classroom, and said with concern, "Hoshino-senpai, you..."

"Hehe, I'm fine~." Hoshino still looked lazy. "Nomiya, you go back first. I want to rest in the classroom."

"Actually, Hoshino-senpai, you're very sad inside, aren't you?" Nomiya's concern remained. "I know you've also had feelings for the teacher..."

“Nomiya.” Hoshino put away his lazy expression. “Of course I know, but everything is already set in stone. Given the teacher’s personality, once he makes a decision, he won’t change it easily.”

"Besides, he's not a womanizer."

“Senior Hoshino…” Nomiya couldn’t help but feel sorry for Hoshino.

Hoshino looked at the clouds outside the window and continued, "Back in Trinity, the moment Hina took the initiative to block the attack for our teacher, I realized that I had fallen far behind Hina."

"..." Nomiya finally gave up trying to persuade Hoshino. "Alright then, Hoshino-senpai, don't forget to go back early."

After Nomiya left, Hoshino rested his chin on his hand, looked at the sky, and fell into thought.

"If it had been me, not Hina Chika, who shielded the teacher from that enemy's attack back then... perhaps the outcome would have been different..."
