Chapter 168: Fog War (Part 1) That Man...
"I should have thought of it earlier. The only dispute between you and Viper was about that." Reborn, who had already taken off his earplugs, shook his head as he looked at the black-haired girl who was so happy after winning the argument that she had completely forgotten what she was going to do in the first place.
"Even though I have no memories, knowing it had a good ending is still something to be happy about," the player thought cheerfully. "Maybe I just had a sudden inspiration, a case of a beautiful girl standing up for justice."
"Although the process was twisted, the ending was correct." Reborn nodded and said, "In that case, after the battle for the ring is over, I will take you to meet Marco and the others."
Although they have already done their intelligence work almost to the extreme, they may have already received the news that you appeared in Heiming.
"How can you say such a thing so calmly? This is a battle for succession. Are you so confident in Tsunayoshi-kun? Reborn." Seeing Reborn staring at the game that was about to begin without blinking, the player smiled.
"Hehe, although I met Xanxus much earlier than I thought, he is my disciple." Reborn stroked the curvy sideburns beside his ears, and a subtle arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"So how many disciples do you have in total? Are they all your biological disciples, or are there also nominal disciples? Who was your first disciple? Was it Tsunayoshi-kun? Or was it the golden-haired one that I haven't met yet but heard Tsunayoshi-kun talk about?"
The player who was not affected at all by the fight between the illusionists in the field, holding Colano in one hand and Reborn in the other, sat on the chair and began to harass them incessantly.
"Hmph, that golden-haired fellow you're talking about is called Dino. He's indeed my apprentice, and just as useless as Sawada Tsunayoshi." Reborn, whose illusion had barely been contaminated by Aurora's immovable presence, lowered the brim of his hat and muttered, "As for the first person you could call your apprentice, he's an absolute idiot."
"What? Reborn, I didn't hear what you just said clearly. Can you say it again--" The player who thanked Chrom for dodging the snake's attack was distracted and did not hear Reborn's next words clearly.
"It's okay if I can't hear you clearly. It's not important anyway." Reborn adjusted his posture and changed the subject subtly. "Let's continue watching the battle. Speaking of which, Viper's use of illusions has improved quite a bit."
"I was just distracted for a moment... Oops, Chrom, be careful!" The player muttered softly, knowing that he couldn't get anything out of him. After seeing that Chrom was about to get into danger, he quickly shifted his attention to the basketball court.
Only Colonello, who was in Aurora's arms, heard what Reborn whispered and couldn't help but look sideways.
If his guess was correct, the first disciple Reborn was referring to was...
The blond boy, who was glanced at inconspicuously by the black-haired boy, quickly stopped guessing and shifted his attention to the battle between Viper and the purple-haired girl.
————————
"Why is Aurora-san still sitting there?" Feeling like he was about to fall into a whirlpool, Sawada Tsunayoshi held his head and asked in confusion, "And Reborn and Coronelo! Their expressions are so comfortable!"
"Ah, Tsunayoshi-kun, are you curious?" The player who found the hedgehog-haired boy's expression very interesting sat up straight and became interested again.
"I can answer that question for you." The player, happily feeding the animals, stopped what he was doing when he heard the spiky-haired boy's angry cry and turned around to say, "But you need to agree to a small request of mine."
"So what do you think? This seems like a pretty good deal to me, huh?"
"Wait a minute, Tsuna, don't..." Yamamoto Takeshi, who sensed something was wrong, stretched out his hand, subconsciously trying to prevent his friend from falling into the hands of the teacher who was full of evil taste.
"Well, it's okay, because I don't feel that Aurora wants to treat me badly... Ahhh, I'm not saying that Aurora has bad thoughts about me, I mean that Aurora just wants an equal exchange... right?" Looking at Yamamoto Takeshi who couldn't help but cover his face, Sawada Tsunayoshi explained slowly.
"Yamamoto-kun, Aurora probably won't do anything to me..." Sawada Tsunayoshi scratched his head, "After all, there's nothing she can do to me like this."
Player: “…”
The heir of the Vongola family, even though it's only a temporary version right now, does he actually think that players can't plot against him?
"Wow, Reborn, is this how you teach your apprentice? Right now, Tsunayoshi-kun's face looks very... uh, very pure." The player struggled to come up with an adjective.
"...Stupid Tsuna, you actually agreed without asking anything. It seems that your danger awareness training is not enough." Reborn's mouth curled down, and his dark eyes revealed a cold light that made Sawada Tsunayoshi tremble with fear. "I will triple the training when we go back until you remember it."
"Ah--?! Why?" Sawada Tsunayoshi said sadly and angrily.
"Hahaha, poor Tsunayoshi! I don't mean to trick you, but since you're about to face triple training, I can tell you why I'm so comfortable." The player pointed to his eyes and said, "My secret is right here."
So he still wants to trick me.
Sawada Tsunayoshi narrowed his eyes and looked at the black-haired girl who had no idea what he had said.
"Eyes..." Yamamoto Takeshi stared at the black-haired girl's bright golden eyes. After a moment, under everyone's expectant gaze, he stood up and smiled. "Ah, other than finding the golden eyes very beautiful, I can't see any other clues."
"Even if you're praising me, I won't let you pass." The player, who had seen Yamamoto Takeshi so many times and had become immune to this, shook his finger.
"It seems like a failure." Yamamoto Takeshi said this, but there was no sign of discouragement on his face.
"You baseball idiot..., you didn't realize you'd been staring for so long." Hayato Gokudera, who was so angry at Yamamoto Takeshi's behavior that he fell to the ground, got up from the ground and said angrily.
"Because it's really beautiful, just like a flash of light," said Takeshi Yamamoto.
It appeared! Yamamoto-san's stream-of-consciousness description!
Tsunayoshi Sawada looked at Hayato Gokudera who was frowning more and more, then looked at Takeshi Yamamoto who was really explaining seriously, and slapped himself in the face.
"Forget it, you shoulder blade, let me guess." Gokudera Hayato waved away the troublesome Yamamoto Takeshi and decided to find out the secret of the black-haired girl's eyes, and then tell the tenth generation first!
Thinking of this, Hayato Gokudera's gaze became more determined.
The player who was being stared at kept smiling, and suddenly a bowl of bone skin soup appeared in his hand, which he poured into the silver-haired boy's mouth at lightning speed.
"This is...!!!" After tasting the familiar taste, Hayato Gokudera, who could be considered the most intelligent among the young men, immediately felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
"I almost forgot, Mukusi-kun hasn't taken his medicine for today yet." The player who instantly knocked someone down clapped his hands nonchalantly. Looking at the curious young man with two prominent canine teeth in the distance, he asked enthusiastically, "You look very interested. Want a bowl, young man? This is a great tonic!"
"Huh? Who wants to eat your food?" The City Island Inu curled his lips in disdain and glared fiercely at that side.
"Dog." Kakimoto Chigusa held down the impulsive dog and shook his head.
"Tsk." The dog turned his eyes away and stopped looking over there.
"You're so shy." The player didn't care when he saw that the other party ignored him. He put away the bone skin soup in his hand and turned to look at the hedgehog-haired boy who seemed to be relieved that there was no conflict between the two sides.
"So, Tsunayoshi-kun, have you discovered my secret?" the player asked with a smile.
"Eh? Me?" Sawada Tsunayoshi pointed at himself.
"Yes, it's you." The player patted the spiky-haired boy's shoulder encouragingly and whispered, "Actually, you've already anticipated this, haven't you? It's just that you just can't seem to trust your own feelings?"
If players didn't want to hear the unsure spiky-haired boy say it himself, why would they bother messing with Yamamoto Takeshi? And why would they bother knocking down Yu Si and insulting her?
"I……"
"Be more confident and follow your feelings. It doesn't matter if you're wrong. Although, considering your character, I'm willing to tell you this little secret directly."
The player looked inside the arena. Although the purple girl was gifted, she had only recently learned illusion techniques. Furthermore, her opponent was Viper (cursed version), one of the seven strongest people in the world in terms of illusion techniques and superpowers. Her current situation was extremely difficult.
Player: If an accident occurs and her life-sustaining organs disappear, rescue her immediately!
"Aurora..." Tsunayoshi Sawada didn't expect that the black-haired girl trusted him so much after only knowing him for a few days.
"Don't worry, if you want to know why I trust you so much, most of this is thanks to my apprentice and your teacher—" The player waved his hand, looking at the urgent situation in the field, ready to go.
"...I understand." Looking at Yamamoto Takeshi waving at him and Reborn concentrating on the battle scene, Sawada Tsunayoshi nodded and said the vague answer in his heart, "Aurora's eyes can see through illusions, so illusions have no effect on you, right?"
Although it was a question, the brown-haired boy's tone was full of certainty.
"Finally said it, Tsunayoshi-kun. It's almost there~" The player nodded affirmatively and said, "I give you a thumbs up-"
The confident bunny really looked much more dazzling than the unconfident one. The player had originally planned to use other means, such as hormone cookies or something...
After giving the correct answer, Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, and focused his wandering gaze on the basketball court - although he didn't know why, the chill in his body seemed to have subsided, which should be a good thing.
However, the battle on the basketball court didn't seem to be so lucky...
As the trident was completely destroyed by Mammon, Chrom fell to the ground and let out a scream. The mist surrounding her body dissipated instantly, and what appeared was her originally flat belly deflated in full view of everyone!
"This is...! The illusion is ineffective!" The player subconsciously wanted to go up and pick up the purple-haired girl.
But the player's idea did not come true - someone stopped her action.
"Reborn, why are you stopping me? Even after the game is over, can't I go and pick up the poor little girl lying on the cold basketball court?" The player stood up and decided to force his way in without Reborn giving a reasonable explanation.
"Aurora, and Tsuna, calm down and look carefully - the game is not over yet." Looking at the two people with different looks and genders but similar expressions, Reborn wanted to sigh for some reason.
He actually knows two such impulsive and naive people!
"Eh?" The player had a question mark face, chose to obey, and shifted his attention to the competition venue where the outcome seemed to have been decided.
Sawada Tsunayoshi, who had been extremely worried just now, covered his head uncomfortably and muttered, "It seems... something... is coming..."
What on earth...?
The brown-haired boy also cast his gaze on the purple-haired girl again.
