I, the Heir of Heroes

Facing Erica's question, Tatsuya answered truthfully.

Not unexpectedly, Erica nodded thoughtfully:

"That's right. As one of the trump cards in this nine-school competition, the goal must be to be the champion."

It is undeniable that it can be seen from the attitude of the seniors that they have no doubts about Jia Luo winning the championship.

"Hmm~ This is a big step closer to the No. [-] High School's three consecutive championships."

Instead of continuing to talk about Galo, Tatsuya turned his attention to Watanabe-senpai who was on the field.

"It's very difficult for girls to participate in this competition. Honoka, is there no problem with the management of your physical condition?"

"No problem. After being instructed by Tatsuya-san, I have been doing physical training. After being selected for the competition, I also extended my sleep time."

It has nothing to do with the Nine Schools Battle. When Tatsuya first met Honoka, he was worried that she would not have enough physical strength. He suggested that she not only accept magic training, but also actively exercise her physical fitness.Tatsuya just suggested casually in daily conversations, but Honoka took it seriously unexpectedly.

"Honoka has also developed a lot of muscle!"

"I hate it, Miyuki, don't do this. I don't want to be a muscular girl!"

The conversation between the two sides made Tatsuya smile faintly.

"Look... Tatsuya-san laughed."

"He only laughed because Honoka's speech was weird."

"Even Shizuku's said that... Forget it, I'm an unwanted child anyway. I'm different from you two, Tatsuya-san doesn't want to take care of my competition."

Honoka's sudden awkwardness made Tatsuya too confused to laugh.

His explanation for this, however, seems to have backfired.

"...I have contacted you and planned a battle with you, and I will definitely not exclude you and refuse to take care of you!"

Tatsuya, who defended himself, gradually felt that he had fallen into a quagmire.

"Tatsuya-san, Honoka-san doesn't mean that from time to time."

Seeing this, Mizuki interjected, and it didn't sound like an unreasonable speech.

"Brother... I think you are a little too slow."

After Mitsuki passed, Miyuki said so.

"I thought Tatsuya and Galo-senpai were of the same type! Wow! I didn't expect Tatsuya to have such an unexpected weakness."

Then there's Erica.

"Big wood?"

Shizuku also blamed Tatsuya.

Tatsu also received a collective bombardment from the woman, and had to be speechless.I always feel that they are arrogant and unreasonable, but sometimes it is really impossible to refute them theoretically.

The men's camp also had no fire support.

Until the start of the game, Tatsuya fell into a dilemma where he could only endure.

At this time, the waterway was completed, and the players were ready to take their positions, so Erica and his party let go and continued to play tricks on Tatsuya.

Since it is a water track, there are no lines drawn.

The four of them lined up on the somewhat crowded waterway, and Molly was on the far left.

The other competitors knelt on one or both feet and prepared to sprint, but Molly stood upright.

This scene mainly reflects the difference in the players' sense of balance.But looking at it another way, she is like a "Queen" who makes other players bow their heads.

A large screen suspended in the air shows close-ups of the four contestants.

Only Molly showed a fearless smile.

The moment Molly's name was mentioned on the announcer introducing the contestants, the auditorium—especially near the front row—was shaken by peachy screams.

However, having experienced Galo's game early in the morning, the Sibo brothers and sisters were no longer surprised by such a scene.

"...It seems that our seniors have a group of inexplicably loyal fans."

"Watanabe-senpai is very handsome, I can appreciate it."

Miyuki completely agreed with the tone of a bystander.In fact, after the Nine Schools Battle, Miyuki will also get no less crazy fans than Moli.If she had predicted her future, she should have a deep understanding of the feelings of Watanabe-senpai in the field.

But she's completely out of it now.

Surfing competition is a water competition in midsummer, but the competitors are not wearing swimsuits.

Tights that fit the body perfectly, printed with bright and conspicuous school logos.

Molly stood on the water, his short black hair with a headband swaying in the wind, like an illustration in a novel about young knights.

The signal came from the loudspeaker, the gunshots rang out, and the game began.

It should be said that it is indeed a battle of nine schools. As the elites of each school, they all have their own characteristics and strategies.

However, Mo Li turned a blind eye to the big waves created by the four tallest players behind him, which almost made him lose his balance.

Probably trying to create waves, using his surfing knack to generate propulsion while interfering with other players, but it worked out for Molly.
