“But before we have a spar…”
Jin looked at Jeanne and said, “Jeanne-kun, I have heard your information from the principal, but I haven’t seen your power so is it alright for you to have a spar too?”
Jeanne was a bit surprised, but then she glanced at Haru who gave her a nod. She looked at Jin again and nodded. “Yes, that’s okay.”
“That’s good.”
Jin nodded, then looked at the members of the Strikers who he should ask to have a spar with Jeanne.
“Sophia-kun, can you do it?”
“!!!”
Everyone was surprised when they heard that Jin had called out Sophia as Jeanne’s opponent on the spar since Sophia was the member of the Striker with the highest strength and durability, if Sophia became Jeanne’s spar opponent then…
“Okey dokey!”
Sophia smiled and agreed without hesitation. She then looked at Jeanne and said, “Please take care of me, Jeanne.”
“Yes, Sophia.” Jeanne nodded.
Haru looked at Sophia and he had to admit that this girl’s boobs were humongous. He moved closer to Jeanne and whispered.
“This girl should have good durability, you shouldn’t hold back.”
Haru knew that compared to the strength of the servants on the Holy Grail, the members of the Striker in front of them should be comparable to the average and above-average rank of servants so even if they were unable to penetrate Jeanne’s defense, he wanted her to be careful.
“Don’t worry,” Jeanne said with a smile.
Then everyone cleared the training ground and stood on the audience seat to watch the spar between Sophia and Jeanne.
Haru, Shizuno, Jin, Tokiko (the vice-captain of the Striker), and Haruka (member of the Striker) sat next to each other, discussing the result of this spar.
“Kasugano-kun, Sophia is one of our strongest members at the Striker,” Jin said.
“Even so, my girlfriend won’t lose,” Haru said.
“….”
When those words fell, even though Haruka had heard that Jeanne was Haru’s girlfriend, she couldn’t help but feel sad.
“Kasugano-kun, after school, why don’t you go with this big sister? I will teach you a lot of things since both of us are Dark Mages,” Tokisaki didn’t care whether Haru had a girlfriend or not, instead of being wishy-washy, she directly invited him.
“…Kanz–“
“Tokiko!”
“Kanza–“
“Tokiko!”
“I mean Tokiko-senpai…” Haru was helpless and said, “I can’t go with you today, sorry.”
“How about tomorrow?” Tokiko directly asked.
“TOKIKO!!!”
Jin directly grabbed Tokiko’s head and tied her directly since if he let this perverted woman run amok, he was afraid that Haru might run away sooner or later.
“Senpai, you should be quiet the duel is about to start!” Haruka also helped Jin and sometimes, she was quite envious of Tokiko who was very brave at talking about her emotions.
Looking at the scene beside her, Shizuno was speechless and let out a sigh before she focussed all of her attention on the training ground since the spar between Jeanne and Sophia was about to start.
Jeanne, who received her ID Tag, also used it to transform her uniform and she also created a battle flag by using this unique item. Unlike the Savior in this world that was using Plana to use the ID Tag, she used her magic energy to use this item.
“Oh-ho? Battle flag? It’s a very unique weapon, desu,” Sophia said with a smile.
“Sophia, you’re not using a weapon?” Jeanne asked curiously.
“No, desu! If I use it, it will be too much,” Sophia said. Unlike Jin who received information from the principal, she didn’t receive any information about Jeanne, Haru, and Shizuno, so she thought that they should be at least Rank C Saviors. Even though it wasn’t bad, they didn’t have an experience like her so she thought to go easy on them.
Jeanne looked at Sophia for a bit then also made the battle flag on her hand disappear.
Sophia was a bit surprised and asked, “You’re not using your weapon, desu?”
“It’s alright, I am also quite good at hand-to-hand combat,” Jeanne said.
“I see, desu!” Sophia smiled and raised her fists. “Then don’t regret your choice, Jeanne!”
“Let’s start, Sophia!”
Jeanne also raised her fists and she also wanted to test the strength difference between the Saviors and herself since she hadn’t had a chance to use her power when she appeared in this world.
The air around their surroundings started to change and from their bodies, they started to emit an aura around their bodies.
Jeanne might not be able to use Plana, but she could use her magic energy to do something similar to Plana in this world after she trained with Haru for several days.
(Haru defeats most of the opponent by his “Haoshoku Haki” after all).
Sophia then stomped the ground and caused the ground to sink.
*BOOOM!*
In an instant, Sophia leaped right in front of Jeanne, raising her fist and aimed toward Jeanne’s stomach, but…
Jeanne’s speed was faster, and she punched Sophia’s stomach directly.
“What?!”
Sophia was dumbfounded and she didn’t have time to block Jeanne’s punch.
*BOOOOOOOOMM!*
Sophia blasted away and hit the edge of the training ground directly with a loud noise. The stadium was shaking, and half of the training ground was covered in dust.
“….”
No one could comprehend what was happening for a few seconds until they heard Jeanne’s voice.
“So – Sophia! I am sorry!”
Jeanne panicked since it seemed that she didn’t expect Sophia to be this weak.
“SOPHIA!!!”
Everyone also panicked and they quickly came toward Sophia to help her. When they arrived, they saw Sophia passed out, rolled her eyes, and laid on the top of the rubble without moving.
“This…!?”
Everyone was dumbfounded since they knew very well how durable Sophia was, but with just one hit from Jeanne, Sophia passed out directly. Then they looked at Jeanne, who was trying to help Sophia with fear since they thought that this girl was a monster.
“Um… your girlfriend is very fierce, Kasugano-kun,” Tokiko said with a pale face. She was wondering whether her fate would be similar to Sophia since she had tried to flirt with Haru before.
“Kasugano-kun… can you heal Sophia?” Jin asked. Even though he knew that Sophia was very durable, he was still worried something might happen to Sophia since the strength behind Jeanne’s punch wasn’t a joke.
“Leave it to me.” Haru moved closer to Jeanne who was trying to help Sophia and said, “Jeanne, let me handle this.”
“Um…” Jeanne nodded.
Haru then raised his palm and directly used his “Light Magic,” “Ripple” and “Jewelry Bonney’s Power” to heal Sophia.
Haru had been trying to develop Jewelry Bonney’s power and the key to this power was “Rewind” and “Fast Forward”. He could “Rewind” the time and “Fast Forward” the time.
By rewinding the time, he was able to erase the damages, injuries, etc so it was a very convenient ability, in his opinion.
Before long, the injuries of Sophia disappeared at a speed that was visible to eyes which made everyone dumbfounded.
During their fight against the metaphysical, what were they all afraid of?
The answer was obvious and that was an injury!
Even if there was advanced medical technology and the Light Arts could enhance their healing power to a certain extent, it didn’t mean that they could be saved if they were in critical condition after they fought against the metaphysical and the speed of their healing also wasn’t that fast, compared to the ability that was shown by Haru at that moment so when they saw him, using this power, their expression and eyes started to change and they became excited!
They knew that they needed Haru in their team no matter what!
“Ugh… what happened, desu?” Sophia looked at everyone with confused expressions, and at the same time, she realized that her body seemed to be healthier than before. She knew that her rib was cracked by Jeanne, but it seemed that it was alright which made her wonder what had happened.
Jin was excited beyond belief since unlike before, this time, he could see clearly how amazing Haru’s healing ability was. “Kasugano-kun, you have to join the Striker no matter what!”
“Kasugano-kun, you’re amazing!” Haruka was also excited.
“Cough! Cough!”
Haru coughed to stop everyone from getting too excited, but he knew very well that with this healing ability, he would be pampered by a lot of people. He looked at Jin then put on a harmless smile and asked, “Jin-senpai, should we start out sparing?”
“…”
Jin wasn’t sure and for a moment, cold sweat started to drip from his body when he saw this harmless smile and somehow, he started to regret his decision to ask him for a spar before since he realized that this guy was a beast.
