With a friend's recommendation, the player downloaded a full immersion game that was supposedly super popular and a loss not to play. In her eagerness to start the game, the player didn't r...
Chapter 408: I don’t know how to title it. Waiting for Sasa…
After Ryohei Sasagawa, Takeshi Yamamoto, and Hayato Gokudera finished recounting their experiences of the day, everyone present involuntarily turned their eyes to the brown-haired boy who was sitting in the middle of the room with his head down and silent.
"When my watch announced the start of the battle, for some reason, Aurora whisked me away. Until..." Sawada Tsunayoshi clenched his fists and muttered softly, "I met my father."
"What?! The opponent of the tenth generation is actually the tenth generation's father?!" Hayato Gokudera said in shock.
"Yeah." Sawada Tsunayoshi's eyes flickered as he told his companions the outcome of the battle. "I don't know why he didn't destroy my leader's watch, but... I lost."
"Even with Aurora's reminder, I... still lost to my father." When he said this, Sawada Tsunayoshi's eyes were complicated. In addition to the frustration brought by the defeat, there was also worry and anxiety about disappointing his companions.
"Iemitsu didn't destroy your leader's watch. This is the result of a deal between me and Colano." Reborn didn't elaborate on this because he discovered something more worthy of attention.
Aurora...
As the agent of Alcobaleno Yuni of the Sky, what role does she play in this proxy war?
Reborn tilted his head and asked, "What did she remind you?"
"He told me to just use X-BURNER Super Burst or something, and then told me not to be afraid, not to hesitate, and to focus on fighting..." Sawada Tsunayoshi hesitated for a moment and said this.
In fact, Aurora said other things, such as praising herself, but for various reasons, Tsunayoshi Sawada did not say it out loud.
"It sounds like... Aurora-sensei doesn't seem very friendly towards Tsuna's father." Yamamoto Takeshi rubbed his chin and made this assumption. "Isn't that right, Gokudera?"
They all know what X BURNER Super Burst is. Teacher Aurora lets Tsuna use this move directly. It seems that there are some unknown hidden secrets in it.
Yamamoto Takeshi is a thoughtful person, but he still has a bright smile on his face, and he doesn't look like he has received any big news.
"Don't ask me about this kind of thing." Gokudera Hayato rolled his eyes, but still thought carefully, "But I think you're quite right this time, baseball idiot."
"Aurora...seems like she really wants to beat up her dad..." Sawada Tsunayoshi remembered Aurora's hostility towards Sawada Iemitsu, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
It couldn't possibly be because of him, right? He wasn't that confident yet.
"Let's put this aside for now. After all, it won't affect anything for now." Reborn waved his hand, motioning everyone to look at their watches, and pointed out another thing, "The results of the first day of the Rainbow Proxy War are in."
"Within a ten-minute battle limit, Welte's team managed to defeat four people on the first day. They truly shouldn't be underestimated." Reborn lowered his eyes and said in a flat tone, "This combination of illusionists and scientists, I wonder what powerful trump cards they have in their hands."
**
The next day, Tsunayoshi Sawada, who chose not to return home at night, picked up his schoolbag at Reborn's request and walked towards school with Takeshi Yamamoto and Hayato Gokudera.
He was still almost late for class, ran into the classroom in a panic, and then gasped for breath. It was no different from before. Even players who had skipped school many times could remain calm and turn a blind eye.
but……
"You look very bad, Tsunayoshi-kun." The player looked at Sawada Tsunayoshi and asked, "Did something happen?"
"Aurora, why are you asking this?"
Gokudera Hayato moved quickly and stood in front of Sawada Tsunayoshi in an instant. He said with a vigilant look in his eyes, "Don't forget, we belong to different teams now. Don't even think about trying to get information from us!"
"I'm just curious. After all, you weren't like this yesterday. Could it be... you lost?" Seeing Sawada Tsunayoshi's expression getting worse, the player suddenly realized, "I see, you lost."
Although players think that Sawada Tsunayoshi is stronger than Sawada Iemitsu, losing is losing.
It's normal for Tsunayoshi Sawada to be in a bad mood after losing to that sloppy father who never comes home and likes to mentally oppress people, so players should be generous and understand the hedgehog-like Hayato Gokudera a little!
The player glanced at Hayato Gokudera, who was protecting her chicks like a hen, snorted, and turned his head away.
"Hey! Aurora!" Hayato Gokudera looked at the tenth generation nervously. After finding that there was no extra expression on his face, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then glared at the black-haired girl.
Really, the tenth generation is already disappointed enough, and Aurora actually emphasized it so much. Isn't this just bringing up something that is not related to the topic?
"Gokudera." Sawada Tsunayoshi shook his head and said slowly under Gokudera Hayato's gaze, "If you lose, you lose."
There is nothing much to say. It was he himself who lost to his father.
"It's just one loss, Tsunayoshi-kun, there's no need to be so discouraged." The player turned around, holding his chin, not hiding his poor attitude towards Sawada Iemitsu. "After all, he's an old and experienced guy. It's normal that he has far more experience than you."
Players' "And..."
Player: "You are different from him. There is a fundamental difference between you."
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "I am different from him..."
Player: "Yeah, he's a pure mafia guy, and you're Sawada Tsunayoshi, that's all."
Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly looked up and looked in the direction of Aurora, only to find that the black-haired girl was holding her chin with one hand, with a smile on the corner of her lips, and a pair of golden eyes were shining brightly in the sunlight.
Tsunayoshi Sawada was stunned by the scene in front of him. It seemed that some changes had taken place in Aurora... Was it an illusion?
…
…
"Tsunayoshi-kun, Tsunayoshi-kun?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, I just got a little distracted."
"Oh my, it seems the battle's outcome really had a significant impact on you." The player spread his hands, somewhat helplessly saying, "I don't understand why you care so much."
Caring is one thing, but Sawada Tsunayoshi's current state clearly shows that he is caught in self-consumption.
"What do you know?" Gokudera Hayato thought of the man he once hated, and a complex look flashed in his eyes, "After all, he is the father of the tenth generation..."
"I don't understand." The player blinked and said sincerely, "I don't have a father."
Players are born and raised, and they always have only dear mommy!
Sawada Tsunayoshi: “……!”
Jokudera Hayato: "...!"
Yamamoto Takeshi: "...!"
Oops, oops, oops!
This familiar feeling...it seems like they have touched upon some important topic again!
For a moment, several people broke out in cold sweats and were at a loss, fearing that Aurora would be reminded of some sad things, and thus ignored the loopholes in Aurora's words.
The player tilted his head, looking at the three people in front of him whose expressions suddenly changed in some confusion.
“What are you doing…”
Just when the player was about to ask, the new English teacher that the students had been waiting for for a long time finally showed up. It was said that the English teacher was poached by another school, so the new English teacher was recruited and accepted.
"Ciao, no, it should be hello~~"
The tall blond man put one hand in his pocket and held a junior high school English textbook in the other. He waved it at the students with shining eyes and showed them a dazzling smile. "Let me introduce myself. I'm the new English teacher, Dino."
"Dear students, please give me your guidance——"
"Mr. Dino?!"
…
…
——————————
"That's a great idea! Letting Dino enter Namimori Junior High School in this way will make it easier for him to participate in the battle."
The player sat on the rooftop, looking at the people chatting happily below, and thought thoughtfully, "But this guy is really popular with the girls. He's too eye-catching. Are you sure we don't need to find an illusionist to cast an illusion that distorts his appearance?"
"Even if you exclude Rokudo Mukuro, there should still be a character like this in your team, right?"
"Well, I know what you mean, Aurora, but she's not a member of our team yet. She has her own challenges to overcome." The black-haired boy sitting next to the player took a sip of tea slowly. "No one can help her. This kind of thing, she has to figure it out on her own."
"Okay~" The player thought about it and agreed that there was no need to worry too much about Chrom. After all, there were many ways to solve her situation. "By the way, Reborn, what are your thoughts on forming an alliance with Uni?"
"Humph, this isn't such a bad idea, is it?" Reborn curled his lips slightly and slowly put down his teacup. "But you, Aurora, why did you choose to join Uni's team?"
"That's what you're talking about..." The player replied with a grin, "Of course it's because Uni was the one who invited me first!"
Reborn: "Just because of this?"
Player: "That's why!"
Reborn: "Is it really that simple?"
Player: “It’s really that simple!”
There seemed to be a moment of stagnation in the air.
"...Everyone has their own secrets. Since you don't want to tell me, I won't ask." By the end, Reborn's tone had become inaudible. "Besides, joining Uni's team might be the most suitable choice for you."
Player: "...You can be too clever, sometimes you just have to not overthink things, Reborn."
The player really decided to join Uni's team and participate in this Rainbow Agent War where many experts gathered because Uni's invitation triggered a special mission!
Although players have a little bit of selfish desire that is not worth mentioning.
How could Reborn not know what she was thinking? But he didn't expose her. After all, as he said just now, everyone has their own secrets.
Besides, don’t I have selfish motives too?
"Although we have agreed to form an alliance, it is still just a verbal agreement." Reborn thought for a moment and said, "After school, Tsuna and I will go see Uni together."
Now that an alliance has been formed, the members of both teams need to at least meet each other.
"That's absolutely fine. Our entire team is at my villa." The player gave a thumbs-up and said, "I look forward to seeing you, Reborn."
"Maybe you'll be surprised too—"
