Chat Group For Magicians

Chapter 17: Trouble

The day ended earlier than expected. We move straight to class immediately because the homeroom teacher is much more of a straightforward rather than the slow one. We skipped the introduction part because it is a waste of time and we can learn each other's names by ourselves. So after that, everything proceeded without anything happening. And to my surprise, even during lunch and recess break, there is no conflict that I expected to come to me. I guess they are holding back and will go all out this afternoon? I am not too sure but I am guessing that their preparation for an attack will be directed to me this afternoon after the school activities. I am not too pressured to prepare. It's just that you need to anticipate when and where they are going to launch their attacks.

I am still confident in my fighting style and I am not bragging that I can take down at least 5 delinquents trying to gang up on me. Magic is still not included in that. I may have already quit my practice in martial arts but I still remember most of the fundamentals. Although the martial arts I am talking about is not similar to the martial arts used in wuxia novels, it can be considered as a form of hand to hand combat discipline like Taekwondo and Karate. I am still not sure if they are going to attack but I am sure that they won't attack me in the public but in a secluded area. If only that rumor didn't spread out, this won't be happening and I won't get unnecessary attention.

What I am weirded out is the fact that only a single person is able to spread so many false rumors about me in just a half-day. The influence that this person has must be so wide and strong that it didn't take a day to spread my name to others. The only mystery is that, why is that person so adamant about dragging me down to the drains? I have no idea at all.

After packing up my things, I didn't roam around anymore on the campus. Moonlight has something to attend in her kendo club while Godou and his gang has other business to attend to. Since I am still a new guy here, I am not yet affiliated to clubs and any kind of sports in school so there is no one tying me down to remain. As soon as I am in the shoe rack, I detected a malicious aura that is currently tailing me. I didn't look behind because that will make the stalker anxious. So the assailant is someone going to this school huh? That was expected.

But I prefer to do the deed outside the school premises. At least, the school won't have any scandal of trouble. I am so considerate, right? After pretending to exchange my shoes out of the rack when in reality, it was just the same shoes, I move out and briskly walked away from the premises. Of course, the people around started looking at me with different expressions. It was hilarious to see how their similar reactions look different from their faces. But I don't have to stop and photograph their faces. I quickly move my feet and move out of the premises.

...

Shibuya, Hachiko Statue, Tokyo.

I made sure that I pass through crowded places so that the enemy would get confused. Of course, I made sure that I am using a good place that I remember easily or I will get lost in the end. I can still feel that he or she is tailing me. But this time around, he multiplied since I can feel that he is not the only one who is tailing me around. From what I can remember, there is a secluded area not too far from the park. That will be a perfect place to confront these people.

The feeling of being chased, it was quite similar to the time I was being ostracized by others. I am not quite sure why though I am thrilled. When I arrived in the secluded area, I also felt the one chasing me stop in their tracks too.

"You all have business with me?" I look behind and saw a few guys that if I remember right, are my classmates.

Most of them are the squadron of handsome people that I usually see together. These guys are not the same as those people who tried to beat me up this morning. These guys are literally models. I heard that they are an aspiring male idol group but I am not sure if what the rumors are true but indeed, they looked like someone who would pass as a male idol group here. They say that their looks can rival those Korean idols in which is a bit hard to believe. There are some guys who are not my classmates which means a few of these guys are not someone from my class.

"Sou, is that the kid you are talking about that molested your girlfriend?" one of the guys said.

"Indeed. My girlfriend showed me his photo so I am not mistaken. How dare he do this to my girlfriend!?"

I frowned and scratch my head. Why do I feel so annoyed whenever he mentions that "G" word? The next time he mentions that I will be the first one to strike his face. Just because I am a lonely, virgin, girlfriendless guy he can do that to me?!

"You need to know that you need to prepare for what will happen to you. You will not be able to go back to school due to humiliation and a broken body. He dares to be so rude and lewd to girls, he deserves a beating!"

And after that, countless of guys appeared on alleyways. All of them are carrying baseball bats except for the group stalking me on the way.

"Oh, prepared are we? Yawn~ is that it?"

Hearing this, the guy named Sou creased his brows and gritted his teeth. "You are looking for trouble."

With a wave from his left hand, the guys that accompanied him started to rush forward. Without any weapon, I have to try and defeat these people barehanded and I hope I can beat the sh*t out of them especially the guy named Sou.
