Is it wrong to become a scumbag?

"Do you know anything, Moroboshi?"

Byakuya immediately cast his gaze at this young man.

In front of the two, a young man stood proudly.

His height was around 1.8 meters, and his strong muscles made him seem as strong as a tiger, especially those eyes. They were burning with a fighting spirit, which seemed could penetrate through his prey.

"He has become stronger, far stronger than the Uncrowned Sword King!"

His eyes were locked on Tsukasa.

"You can see this through the strength of the Uncrowned Sword King, but you can't see Deva's strength. That alone is enough for proof, right?"

Byakuya fell silent. He could see Ikki's strength and sharp aura, but he couldn't see anything from Tsukasa.

This was wrong because he knew that Tsukasa should be stronger than Ikki!

"Really...? Beyond that?"

Byakuya still couldn't believe it.

How strong was the Uncrowned Sword King?

He was clear about it, but even so, Ikki's strength was unable to reach Tsukasa at all, which put him in shock and disbelief.

However, the real proof of how strong Tsukasa was probably the fact that Yuudai Moroboshi could show such a strong fighting spirit.

He glanced at the boy in front of him and sighed.

This year's Seven Stars Sword Art Festival was full of monsters!'

"Asagi, I have heard he often visits Nangou Torajiro-sensei. Haven't you chatted with him?"

Byakuya moved his gaze toward the girl beside him.

Momiji Asagi.

While she didn't show a good result at last year's Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, she was the disciple of the God of War, Nangou Torajirou, a powerful magic knight who combined her fire ability and swordsmanship. Her power was outstanding. Unfortunately, she met Touka last year.

"No."

Asagi shook her head dejectedly.

"Toudou-san won't let me meet him."

Touka was "very" protective toward Tsukasa and wouldn't let anyone get close to him, even the same disciple. If Kiriko Yakushi didn't have the power to protect him from many vixens, she might not let him stay with Kiriko.

"Is that so..."

He stopped talking. In any case, he needed to collect more information about Deva so his "Eyes of Heaven" could be utilized even further.

By the way, his name was Byakuya Jougasaki, and he was last year's runner-up at the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival. He was good at mind games, and his insight was even better than Ikki's. However, his strength was weaker than Yuudai Moroboshi, who only entered last year's quarter-final.

However, it didn't mean Moroboshi was weak. Instead, he was strong.

On the other hand, Byakuya was lucky since he only met Touka in the final, so naturally, he got the runner-up.

Suddenly, a loud noise entered the ears of the three of them.

"Looks like there's a problem."

The young man at the front, Moroboshi, suddenly turned grim.

The atmosphere around him changed suddenly, like a tiger that was about to leap.

---

"This is this year's contestant?"

As soon as they walked to the door, everyone was looking at them.

His eyes swept across everyone present. While he only saw most of them for the first time, he saw many familiar figures.

"This year's representative is stronger than last year."

Tsukasa couldn't help but whistle inwardly.

Maybe the participants of the Akatsuki Academy had raised the difficulty of this year's Seven Stars Sword Art Festival to a higher level, but even without this academy, the quality of this year's representative was high.

Even from their breathing, it was enough for him to tell that there were more than three people that could become champions of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival.

He didn't include the Akatsuki Academy, and if he had included them, the number would have been even higher, but suddenly he felt a burning gaze.

The young woman sat near the wall in boredom and suddenly turned her eyes into a blazing passion after watching a few figures enter the hall.

Immediately she walked over with heavy steps.

"I haven't taken the initiative, but you have taken the initiative first."

Tsukasa raised his brows, watching the incoming blonde-haired young woman.

Her upper body was completely naked, and she only covered her body with a dirty apron covered with various colors of pain, exposing many parts of her body, and she seemed so lewd for some reason.

She walked out from her spot and came to Tsukasa.

The atmosphere in the entire hall became tense, and the Kurogane siblings looked at this woman with wary expressions on their faces.

As a representative of Hagun Academy, of course, they knew this young woman!

"Bloody Da Vinci, what are you doing here?"

Touka took a step forward and faced the opposite young woman with sharp eyes like a blade.

Sara Bloodlily.

Her epithet was "Bloody Da Vinci." She might seem like a C-rank Blazer whose ability was to manipulate the concept of color, but in fact, she was an A-Rank Blazer whose ability to affect reality with her painting.

In the Akatsuki Academy, she was one of the three strongest.

"I am not looking for you."

Sara's face was tense. She directly ignored Touka's hostility, and her burning gaze fell instantly on Tsukasa.

"I am looking for him."

Her body temperature rose, her heartbeat and blood flow sped up, and there were two blushes on her cheeks.

She was full of excitement and just wanted to leap toward him.

He wasn't sure, but he could tell that this young woman seemed to fall for him.

However, Kurogane's siblings were shocked, thinking she was crazy.

Do you want to take Tsukasa down before the competition?

Touka was the same, and she felt this young woman was dangerous.

Sara didn't notice their reaction since her eyes were filled with him. She was fully obsessed and wanted to reach out to him subconsciously.

"....." Tsukasa.

"What are you doing?!"

Touka suddenly came between the two, staring at Sara with an annoyed expression.

A dangerous feeling started to spread in their surroundings.

"Sorry, I was rude."

Sara came back to her senses. She bowed apologetically to the two of them and withdrew her hand.

"I had been causing you trouble whenever I met you. I have tried to fix this, but it is hard. I am sorry, but if you want compensation, I can pay them."

Tsukasa was surprised since he didn't expect this young woman would be so polite.

They had met several times, and in those meetings, she had caused him a lot of trouble.

Well, her figure was amazing, but this wasn't the time for him to think about this matter.

Touka and Kurogane's siblings were also surprised.

It was hard to describe their emotion, but compared to Ouma Kurogane, the weird Shinomiya Amane, the sadist Reisen Hiraga, and the killer Yui Tatara, Sara was kind of normal.

"Do you want us to forgive you?"

Tsukasa asked.

"Did you forget what you were doing before?"

His tone was far from friendly.

The attack from the Hagun Academy destroyed most of the academy, and if he didn't step back before, all of them would have been wiped out.

This hatred wasn't something that could be erased by a single apology!

"They're not dead anyway."

Sara scratched her cheeks and felt confused.

"So I have to thank you for not killing them?"

His lips twitched, but the coldness in his eyes became stronger.

"Well, in that battle, we were all restrained ourselves, weren't we?"

Sara sighed feebly, feeling that this conversation was troublesome.

"From beginning to end, our Device has been maintained in Illusionary form, and no one is hurt, right?"
