Realizer of Death : The Reaper

The atmosphere fell silent as the students and teachers heard the sound of slaps and blatant threats from Setsuka. They didn't expect that the student council president would act so decisively toward the first-year students. They didn't know why Setsuka was angry, but they were sure she wouldn't slap the male student for no reason.

On the other hand, Noboru and Takaya opened their mouths wide. Neither of them thought that Setsuka would directly slap the male student before they even had the chance to do anything. Besides, her threats sounded a bit cruel to a first-year student. They didn't know what made Setsuka overreact like that.

Unlike those two, Akina could sense that there was something between Setsuka and Tenku. Setsuka wouldn't be so angry with the male student if Tenku had only saved her life. She simply gave words to warn that boy instead of slaps and threats.

Akina was suspicious of Setsuka, and her heart was uneasy when she thought about it. She had a feeling that a thieving cat would take her favorite item. But then Akina shook her head to shake off the thought. Now is not the time to think about it because the most important thing is to know the current state of Tenku, whether he is still alive or dead.

"I understand, Miss Fuyushima! I promise I won't do it again!" The male student said in fear. He didn't think Setsuka would slap him in front of the other students just because he mocked Tenku.

Setsuka just kept quiet and stared at the male student coldly. Then she left the place and intended to return to Akina to continue their conversation, but Kaede suddenly called out to her.

"Setsuka! What are you doing!?" Kaede ran towards Setsuka and asked frantically. She didn't know what made Setsuka so angry that she slapped and threatened that male student. Kaede only saw Setsuka approaching Akina's group and talking about something. But she didn't expect the situation to turn out like that suddenly.

"Hmm? Didn't you see what I did? I just gave punishment to one of the insolent male students." Setsuka said indifferently.

"Hoo… So he's being rude to you? I agree with your action. But I would add a punch to his face if it was me." Hijiri suddenly entered into their conversation. The male student trembled when he heard those words.

"Hijiri, please don't make the situation worse." Kaede warned.

"I'm just kidding." Hijiri said playfully and left the place.

"Then, what exactly did he do that you slapped him like that?" Kaede asked Setsuka.

"I will say that after I finish my business. Please ask the students to prepare as we will be leaving this place soon." Setsuka left those words to Kaede and walked towards Akina.

"Alright." Kaede sighed and shook her head after hearing those words. She felt Setsuka was different from usual, and she was sure it had something to do with Tenku.

When Setsuka returned, she felt confused gazes from Akina, Takata, and Noboru. But she didn't think about that because she had to quickly tell the other news she hadn't said and settle her business with them. Setsuka still had other matters to discuss with Kaede and the teacher regarding the students' situation.

"Can we continue our conversation? I'm not done with the information I want to tell you. I will shorten it. Your friend got hit by a fireball to save me and fell into a big hole. But I can confirm that he is still alive, and I will bring him back." Setsuka said determinedly and wanted to leave them after she finished speaking. But Akina opened her mouth and stopped her.

"May I know why Tenku saved you? I'm sure the reason isn't as simple as the hero saving beauty as that male student said because I know Tenku very well. He wasn't the type of guy who would sacrifice himself just because of a girl. It doesn't matter how pretty it is." Akina asked seriously. She had to get the answer to that question from Setsuka. Otherwise, her heart would not be able to calm down.

Setsuka fell silent when she heard the question. She didn't expect Akina would ask her about it. On the other hand, Takaya and Noboru felt strange about Akina's words. They thought that Akina should have asked why Setsuka could be sure of Tenku's survival rather than why Tenku had saved her.

"He helped me because he happened to be closer to me than the other students, and no reason other than that. So you don't have to think too far." Setsuka replied calmly and quickly left Akina before she asked another question.

Akina frowned after she heard Setsuka's answer. She felt Setsuka was lying to her and tried to avoid that question. Akina clenched her fists tightly as she became more and more sure that there was something between Tenku and Setsuka.

"I will find Tenku on my own, and I don't need your help to bring him back to me." Akina muttered, and her eyes stared intently at Setsuka, who had walked away from her.

When Setsuka came to Kaede, she heard her best friend discussing something with the teacher and Hijiri. Kaede quickly noticed her presence as she approached them.

"Have you settled your business with them?" Kaede asked. She didn't question Setsuka any further because there was something more important they had to discuss.

"Yes. What are you talking about?" Setsuka nodded slightly and sat down next to Kaede.

"We plan to take the students away from this place." Kaede explained to Setsuka what the teacher had told her.

Kaede explained that hordes of orcs and ogres were waiting for them outside the forest, and goblins were wandering around the area looking for them. Sooner or later, their location would be found, and the monsters would invade the place. If that were to happen, then the situation would become dangerous.

"With the three of you here, we can overcome hordes of ogres and orcs. But if too many of them existed, the first-year students would have difficulty fighting the monsters." The teacher said.

"Then we should leave this place now. I'm afraid that if we stay here any longer, it will give the monsters time to gather. We should take this opportunity while the monsters are scattered due to the wyvern's attack." Setsuka gave her opinion.

"We have thought so and are waiting for your approval. After all, you are the student council president, and we must listen to your words." Hijiri replied.

"Have you told the students? If they are ready, then we will leave now." Setsuka nodded slightly and got up from her seat.

"Yes, I've asked one student to tell this matter to the others, and they're ready whenever we're leaving." Kaede pointed at the students who had gathered and walked over to them.

Setsuka turned around and saw that the students had already gathered. She could feel several sharp gazes directed at her.

The first one was from Akina, and Setsuka knew why. The second was from the male student she had slapped. The boy seems to hold a grudge for her previous actions. But Setsuka ignored it and pretended not to notice. If that male student dared to have malicious intent toward her, she would not hesitate to prove her threat.

"We will leave this place now and join the others. You must raise your vigilance to the maximum and be ready to fight at any moment because we will meet monsters along the way and face hordes of orcs and ogres outside this forest. Do you understand?" The teacher said seriously.

"We understand, teacher." The students answered in unison.

"Alright. In that case, we will leave now!" The teacher finished his sentence and looked at Setsuka, Kaede, and Hijiri. The three girls nodded in response. After that, their group began to search for other students through the forest.

In another area of Lake Shima, Daisuke walks through the forest with Satoru, a teacher, and dozens of students from the first to third years. Akio and his group were also with them. Daisuke continued to search and gather the people who took part in the mission along their escape route from the wyvern.

Daisuke was able to fight against the wyvern with the help of another senior Realizer. But he couldn't leave the students unprotected when they fought. The teachers could only deal with a few ogres and not hordes.

If a horde of monsters ambushed them while Daisuke and the others were fighting the wyverns, then it could be dangerous for them. Besides, he didn't know how many fourth-level monsters the black-robed person had. Daisuke was worried that their enemy still had some monsters hidden as trump cards.

"Did you find any other students or teachers, Satoru?" Daisuke asked.

"We haven't found the whereabouts of the others. But we also didn't find any corpses, and we can be sure they are still alive and hiding somewhere in this area." Satoru reported.

Daisuke asked Satoru to form a group of second and third-year students to inspect the area around them and look for the whereabouts of others, whether it's a teacher, student, or senior Realizer. As Satoru and his group wandered through the forest searching for the others, they found several students hiding in the area. But after that, Satoru couldn't find any of them anymore.

"We will leave this place before the monsters find us. On the way, you must continue to search for others. We need to quickly get out of the Shima lake area and notify the organization of this matter." Daisuke nodded and said seriously.

"Yes, leader." Daisuke answered firmly. But right after he finished his sentence, a voice suddenly sounded and alerted them.

"Hahaha… Do you think I will let you leave this place alive?" The black-robed person appeared with a monster over two meters tall with a lizard-like appearance that walked on two legs and had thick, armor-like scales.

"Armored Lizardman." Daisuke's face changed drastically when he saw the appearance of another fourth-level monster.
