My Enigmatic Life

       Around the same time that the Dawn Wolves complete their mission, the Silver Lion Kings have just done the same. Although, things were slightly more hectic. Mizudori speaks a short command into her earpiece to her Adjutant.

"Hey, Cueball. We completed the mission, so tell the police to get here, got it?"

"Don't call me Cueball, damn it!"

At their feet lies what appears to be a regular citizen. However-

"H-how? How could heathens overcome us? I am one of The Spirits chosen people..."

With that, the man passes out. Saotome clicks his tongue solemnly.

"Poor guy, he's delusional."

"I think anyone would be delusional after the beating you gave him.", Oku says sharply. "He's just some grunt, you know?"

"He deserved it!", Mizudori retorts. "He sent us on a wild goose chase, and when we finally catch him, he's pathetic! He should've just given up the moment he saw us!"

Hasegawa smiles wryly at her friend's displeasure.

"Well, he would have blown his cover if he did, wouldn't he?"

Whlist his squadron exchanges their usual banter, Kageyama stews in his thoughts.

(So, the World-Tree Templar really are looking for more Blessed and Cursed Weapons here in Japan... Although, it seems like they haven't set foot here fully. I'd like to keep it that way for as long as possible.)

"What's wrong, Ryuu?"

"Are you okay, Nii-san?"

Hoshimiya and Kageyama Anzu call out to Kageyama, doing so, all of the attention is now focused unto him. With a smile and a wave, he puts their qualms to rest.

"Oh, it's nothing. I was just wondering how our rivals' mission is going."

Mizudori scowls.

"The Freak and Co. probably got wiped out. Now, let's go home."

"Hey, don't be so bitter, Mari-chan~.", Hoshimiya says playfully.

"The Dawn Wolves won't lose that easily.", Oku says calmly. "They might not be as strong as we are currently, but they're not lightweights."

"Yeah, fine..."

"Oi, oi, Ryuusei! The Rookie Simulations are in four months, right?!"

Saotome, brimming with excitement, queries his Leader. As an answer, Kageyama smiles knowingly at him.

"Hell yeah! I can't to see what their made of! Especially Yoko-chan!"

Ryuusei's smile grows broader. Whether he'll admit it or not, he's just as excited as Saotome is.

Hullo, my faithful readers! I hope that things are going well for you all! Finally, volume seven is completed. Sorry that the output of chapters was a bit slow, I had some things come up with work and family, so that really slowed me down. Volume eight will start in about two weeks time, so wait patiently for me. Also, I'm going to be starting a side-story series that'll mostly be canon SoL stories, nothing too bonkers, so if you miss a chapter it usually won't be a big deal. Until next time, everyone! Be sure to have a great day!
