The Monolith Code is a men's only game. At the competition site, called a "Stage," magic is used to fight over the "Monolith," with each team having three players. The outcome is determined by splitting the Monolith in the enemy encampment and transmitting a concealed code. Any attacks other than magic are forbidden. Breaking the Monolith requires that it be struck with a special Non-systematic Magic. Due to the nature of the event, this game is the most popular among the Nine Schools Competition.
Haru, Morisaki, and Mikihiko went to the "Stage" together and waited for their first match to start. Their first opponent was Fourth High School, and unlike the First High School, the Fourth High School's reputation was a bit bad.
"I know that it is a bit sudden, but for now, don't hide under the building," Haru said.
"Huh?" 2x
Mikihiko and Morisaki were dumbfounded.
"You have heard about the sabotage incident before, right? I feel like they might have set up a trap on the building, and when we stay on that building, that building will be destroyed, and the debris will drop on the top of us," Haru said.
"Huh? Why didn't we just tell the committee?" Mihikiho asked.
"There's no evidence, and it is just my guess. Lastly, even though we have caught most of the people who have sabotaged our competition, there might be some of them left, so it is better to be careful." Haru looked at Mikihiko and Morisaki and said, "With my body, I won't be hurt, but you two..." After all, even though they were Magicians, their bodies weren't that much different from a normal human.
"So, what should we do?" Morisaki asked.
"Let's just strike them directly, defeat all of them and get the code from the Monolith," Haru said.
"..." Morasaki and Mikihiko.
"...Is it alright to be that simple?" Mikihiko was unsure.
"It's alright. In front of overwhelming power, all the strategy or anything is useless." Haru looked at both of them and said, "Morisaki, you'll be the one who is going to fight. Mikihiko, you'll be the transmit the code from Monolith."
"What about you?" Morisaki asked.
"I'll handle the rest. Whether it is protecting you or anything, I'm very good at "Acceleration Magic" and "Barrier Magic" after all, so let's just run forward directly, I'll handle the rest, and you two will support me, alright?' Haru said.
"Yes!" 2x
Morisaki and Mikihiko nodded at the same time.
The three of them stood on the "Stage," and the event was about to begin soon.

When Haru's name came out, and everyone knew that he would be participating in the Monolith Code, everyone quickly gathered since they were wondering about the performance of the heir of the Rokkaku clan.
Erika rubbed her chin and said, "I wonder how long that he'll end this match."
"You have that confidence that he'll win?" Leo asked.
"Of course, who do you think can defeat that pervert?" Erika couldn't name someone who could defeat Haru and felt that Haru would dominate the Monolith Code easily.
'..Pervert...'
Miyuki thought for a while and said, "Well, it probably shouldn't be that long."
"Miyuki?" Tatsuya looked at Miyuki in surprise. "You think that Haru will win?"
"Um." Miyuki nodded since she didn't think that anyone could defeat that pervert.
"I see... but the Fourth High School might show us something unexpected?" Tatsuya said unsurely.
"Well, the match is about to begin. Now, be quiet!" Erika said and watched the match since she was curious what Haru, Mikihiko, and Morisaki would do at this event, but she would have never expected that...
"What?!"
Everyone exclaimed when they saw how the team from the First High School was going to fight this match!
---
Haru, Morisaki, and Mikihiko walked together directly on the open field as if they owned this place.
The members of the Fourth High School were dumbfounded when they saw the three of them walking directly toward their Monolith.
"What are they thinking?!"
"Are they looking down on us?!"
"Damn, just attack them!"
The three members of the Fourth High School were, in the end, the freshman or a newcomer, so when they saw Haru, Mikihiko, and Morisaki directly moved toward the Monolith of the Fourth High School, they felt insulted and wanted to fight back. Forgetting the fact, they had seen Haru's power on the Battle Board.
---
"Stupid! Don't attack them!"
All the seniors of Fourth High School, who watched the match, felt that there was something wrong with Mikihiko, Morisaki, and Haru, but they couldn't pinpoint where there was something wrong, but one thing for sure, since the team of the First High School was so confident to walk toward their school's Monolith directly without hiding, but at the same time, some of them were insulted and shouted their junior to defeat the team from the First High School as soon as possible since they felt that they were being looked down by the First High School.
---
The team from the Fourth High School didn't know what their seniors were thinking and separated with an intention to attack them from various directions, but it was impossible to hide their position from Haru since he had "Kenbonshoku Haki," then without hesitation, he told their position to both Morisaki and Mikihiko to attack them directly.
Morisaki quickly aimed his gun-shaped CAD in one direction and shot out an "Air Bullet," creating an air-compressed bullet and sending it toward the opponent.
Mikihiko also took out his talisman and shot it to the opponent that was hiding behind the wall. "Thunder Child!" With the release of the talisman, he created a small-scale thunderbolt and it was aimed toward his opponent.
Lastly, Haru also raised his arm, using his CAD to slow down all the atoms near the opponent and freeze the surrounding area, including the opponent.
In that instant, all three members of the Fourth High School were defeated, leaving only Haru, Mikihiko, and Morisaki.
"Let's go, Mikihiko, Morisaki," Haru said.
"Yes!" 2x
Mikihiko and Morisaki nodded and had to admit that they were amazed at Haru's ability to detect the enemy position.
Walking toward the opponent Monolith, Mikihiko entered transmit the concealed code to the portable computer that had been given by the committee.
With that announcement, everyone watched how the First High School team defeated the Fourth High School team easily without any trouble and they couldn't help but think that they were too strong, right?

Tatsuya raised his eyebrow and wondered whether Haru had an innate ability such as Mayumi with her Multi-Scope, or like him who had...
'Elemental Sight...'
Tatsuya was wondering whether Haru had the Elemental Sight after he saw this match, but then he shook his head since he was thinking too much since there was no way for Haru to have an Elemental Sight, right?
If Haru knew what Tatsuya was thinking, he could stare at him speechlessly since... there was no need to explain, right?
With all of that, the First High School showed their domination in the Nine Schools Competition.
