Chapter 126: Operation: Hellcurses

"The situation is getting grave? Just how far did the ritual damage things to make this matter worse?"

"To the teenagers in your generations, these rituals are fun and exploring the unknown makes their blood boil and they really are curious if the rumors of the ritual are real so if there are people who are afraid on what will happen, there are those curious babies that will try and try the ritual even it was very dangerous causing for more casualties," Voltaire said as he continues to munch on his breakfast.

"What Voltaire said is true. We don't take anything lightly if it is involved in magic and certain elements where normal people will be harmed alongside with it. If it was dangerous that it can kill ordinary people, we won't just turn a blind eye on it. 

"Around what time are we going to depart?"

"After breakfast. The sooner we respond to the situation, the lesser victims we will be able to save. Make sure you are well prepared."

...

After serving everyone for breakfast, I returned to my room and prepared my uniform. Honestly, even though I did not wear the uniform for a few months, it was like I didn't wear it for how many years. But I am wearing these clothes to return to school, I am wearing this so that I can investigate the rituals. This is part of the job as a magician and keeping humanity safe and unaware of the situation of the magical world.

Carrying a new bag with the necessary materials I bought back then from the shop of Titan and some new notebooks and other school supplies, my gear is good to go. I also didn't forget to bring the Skull Knuckle with me. That weapon is the only weapon I can't allow to be left behind. This will be my trump card in case the things at school get awry.

As for my companions, I already am acquainted with Titan, also known for his real name Godou since we are schoolmates. I am still perplexed in working along with Raigaki though. Even though we are both an otaku, he was more obsessive about it which makes me a bit uncomfortable at him. His alter ego is scary too, I still remember during the war, he is the only one who managed to pin down the demonic priest without relying too much on magic. In short, he is scary.

"Kazuma, are you done? We are departing soon," Yaya shouted at my door.

"Alright. Almost done. Wait a minute," I answered and quickly finish all of the stuff I might leave behind.

Opening the door, I saw Yaya in a Sakuramiya High Uniform. She looked like she was a kouhai to me but I don't think she is my kouhai. I think it's the opposite instead. Of course, her teddy bear is still with her. That is her weapon so I doubt she will be parting with it.

"Looks like you are done. Since you and Titan are both students of Sakuramiya High, we will infiltrate the school alongside Raigaki. Even though Raigaki is a bit of a failure in some aspects, he is a valuable asset so I don't really need to give him up. Of course, he needs to be restrained from time to time but don't worry about it that much," Yaya said.

"Yo man, you look badass back there in the Phantasmal World ya know?" Raigaki said.

"Shut up, for now, Raigaki, Silence!" Yaya flicks her fingers and a small magic circle appeared. Raigaki frowned. He started speaking but his voice cannot be heard anymore, causing him to look disappointed.

"..." I am speechless and not really sure what to do about it.

"Don't dwell too much on it, Kazuma. Just ignore him for now," Yaya said.

Not really sure what is going on but okay, if that is the case, then I will just pretend that nothing happened.

...

When we go down the lobby of the building, Titan is already waiting for us.

"We are ready to depart. The teleportation circle is ready to boot up!" Titan said.

"Teleportation Circle? I didn't see this feature yesterday."

"That's because the teleportation circle was still under construction until yesterday. Last night, the Teleportation Circle is complete and ready to allow us to travel from one place to another as long as a similar-looking Teleport Circle is also available in the vicinity of the area we are going to teleport in," Yaya explained.

"Well that is convenient, we don't need to use transportation or walk just to reach our destination. But I am not sure, is it safe?" I asked.

"It is safe of course, this Teleportation Circle might look like it is dangerous but it is 100% safe. You don't have to worry about losing your limbs while teleporting alright?" Yaya winked.

I shivered when I heard her say "losing your limbs". Even if it's a joke, I am nervous about it due to how dangerous it was to teleport while you have the largest risk of losing a leg or hand.

"Hahaha, don't worry Kazuma. It was indeed safe. We won't be using the teleport circle if it isn't safe. After all, we don't want to die either by just a stupid teleportation problem," Godou said confirming that what Yaya said is real.

"Alright then, let's proceed. We don't have to dawdle right now since the rituals are getting out of hand already," Yaya said.

"!!!" since Raigaki can't speak due to the silence magic that Yaya used to him, he can only vigorously move his body to make sure we can understand him. Of course, I don't understand what he is saying.

"Yeah, yeah, don't worry Raigaki, I will undo the spell later, once we need your voice and opinion but after that, we will seal it again," Yaya said.

"..." Raigaki looked disappointed.

We stepped into the Teleportation Circle. It looks like a magic circle, only with the runic engravings that are not usually present on a normal Magic Circle. Still, it looks like it is quite large enough to even transport a truck or a bus in this magic circle. My speculation is that they can use this teleportation circle to transport bigger groups to one place and another or any vehicle to use as a back up in special events. I even guess they use the same kind of Teleportation Circle during the war outbreak on the Phantasmal Reality when they appeared altogether.

"Gather, Form, Distort... Mass Teleport!" Yaya spread her arms and released strong mana fluctuations. After that, my body started to get lighter and I can feel like I was riding a speeding race car.

Then...

Nothing. 

After that sensational feeling, nothing followed. I looked around and realized that we are now in the garden of Sakuramiya High. It was inside the greenhouse of the garden. I looked below and the Teleportation Circle on the ground slowly faded and became a normal soil instead.

"The Teleportation Circle is located in the greenhouse?" I asked.

"Yeah. It is the best place since only a few people enter here and it was also quite desolated so it was a perfect place to hide the circle without being detected. It was also camouflaged to blend into the ground so that even if normal people accidentally entered the greenhouse, the Teleportation Circle won't be easily seen," Godou explained.

"Alright then, since we are here, then let's commence our mission. Gather intel and find students performing the ritual. As the leader of this operation, I will call this mission OPERATION HELLCURSES!"
