Chapter 8 - HUA's exam(3)

"She's already unconscious, right?" Hoshi asked with concern.

[I think so. How do you feel about the first time fighting with a human?]

"She's a real beast." He answers without thinking. Despite being a girl, she is faster than him, stronger than him. If it didn't have confidence, he thinks he couldn't even run away. "I feel like I'm really weak."

[That's good. Remember this feeling so it will remind you to don't be careless. But I a little bit curious about her identities from her words... kiddo can you pull her sleeve up?]

"Sure." He said while folding the suit up, seeing her upper arm that fulls of tattoo

"This is..." He shocked, while Saturn continue asking with serious tone

[Now about the crest at her chest.]

After hearing that, Hoshi turns over her body and found a brooch made from brass attach at her pocket. It is the symbol of the crescent moon with oni's head at its center.

Seeing the crest, Saturn let out a serious, long sigh and said to Hoshi with a pathetic voice

[Kid, it's a little bit bad. You just knocked out someone you shouldn't mess with.]

"Is it that terrible?" Hoshi asked, feeling a little bit dread. In the past, This voice says like the dragons are nothing, but now he's nervous about this girl...

[...I think this girl is a direct descendant of Onigawara house]

"What?! Onigawara?! You mean that Onigawara of Mikadzuki gang?!" Hoshi screams, almost pissed off. Onigawara, no one in Asia that doesn't knit these two names especially Japanese like himself.

Mikadzuki gang is the biggest yakuza group and the leader of the underworld in Asia. The reason Chinese governments permit this foreign mafia group to grow this big is due to its head, Onigawara, the house of the Atlas holder.

"Does...does this mean I won..."

[Not at all, she's just a normal person, not the holder yet, moreover, she didn't even use her main weapon.] Saturn interrupts his daydreaming. [Atlas's power is to strengthening users or the things he wants so their main weapons are something with a wide range and have a high speed like a whip or projectile weapons. If it isn't because HUA didn't arrange a whip, you might be beaten till death.]

"Ha Ha." He asked dryly "Then what should I do next?"

[Just let her be, don't make her any angrier.]

"Alright." He said and ran away without hesitation. At first, he wants to steal this girl's point about forty points, but hearing her identities. Now all he wants is hides his identity and wished to please this little girl at most.

....

About ten minutes or so, Onigawara Hiina slowly open her eyes before come to her sense and hurriedly looking around, remembering that she has a fight with that guy.

She recalled the events before murmured quietly "How could I lose to that guy...This is so frustrating."

The girl looks at her bag and found out that her point tags didn't get stolen, this makes Hiina doesn't know whether to thank Hoshi's generosity or frustrated from his soft heart.

"Tchi. What a guy, dares to fight me but don't take even single points. Should I call him brave or coward?" Hiina gave a long sigh before looking at the clock and realize she has about one and a half hour left. She standing and stretch oneself lazily "Alright, let's hunt the point from a few more people." Then, she walks into the forest and disappeared like a ghost.

....

As for Hoshi, he became more cautious after encounters with Hiina. His guard became so high to the point that he would flee when he catches human signs

[Kiddo, don't you think you are too overacting? You look like a rabbit.] Saturn said jokingly but he doesn't care. Only gods know if other people would come and attack him like that Onigawara or not. Moreover, half of these kids should come from a well-background family. It might be some kind of offending if he won them. Even the possibility is low, but if it became true, he could say goodbye to a peaceful school life.

He gathers one hundred points before the time limit about one hour so he hides near the starting points until the time comes.

"Now thirty minutes are left, every examinee must go to the training ground's exit before noon or else you will be disqualified no matter what. Repeat, now..."

The announcement through the magic broadcasting machines that floating in the air makes the boy relived. He doesn't waste any time and go straight to the exit. At that place, there are two examiners waiting to receive each one's point and note it on the board. Which already had almost twenty names on it, and on the fifth place the name that made him twitched, Onigawara Hiina with 173 points. More than the first place almost seventy points.

Seeing her name make him felt a little bit relieved because it means this girl all already leave, at least he shouldn't bump onto her.

Then, he told his name to the examiner with smiles. As he already submits his scores and due to the fact that he did the writing test excellently, it could say he already passed the test and could celebrate in advance, which he is.

On that day, after knowing about his performance. His parents are very happy and take him to a luxurious Japanese restaurant in their community that they rarely go and order food like they were possessed. Although Hoshi felt a little bit embarrassed but it's hard to find an opportunity to eat this luxurious food, so he eats without considerate.

[Kid, eat slowly or you might have distension. I have something to speak with you after this.] Saturn said when he saw Hoshi cram sushis into his own mouth.

'Uh? Oh, no problem.' He nods then reduces his eating pace.

After the Amanogawasv arrived at their house, he told his mom and dad that he wants to learn some new magic formulas before go upstairs to his bedroom and start talking with Saturn.

"Do you have anything to talk to me? Is it about our schedule this month?" He asked. HUA will open in the next month so he would have free time for thirty days. "Did you plan to take me to another inner area?"

[I was thinking like that at first, but seeing you knocked out that Onigawara made me realize that you don't have any fighting experience with humans before, so I will change the training course a little bit] Saturn spoke [I think...underground fighting should be good.]

"What?!"
