Chapter 1770 - I Object!
"We\'re coming in."
Miyuki, Tatsuya, and Erika entered the student council room at the same time.
"There you are," Mari said with a smile.
"Oh, thanks for coming, everyone," Mayumi greeted them with a smile.
"Yo, Miyuki, Tatsuya, Erika," Haru also greeted them.
Suzune and Azusa didn\'t bother to say anything since they were pretty busy with their jobs.
Erika looked at Haru and smiled, thinking that this guy really had eyes since he was the one who initiated to invite her. Usually, she would show her rebellious character, but this time she was acting quite docile. After all, she also knew the place, and the occasion wasn\'t suitable for her to show her real character, but then, she frowned when she looked at Mari.
Mari also felt a bit awkward at Erika\'s stares but could only smile helplessly.
Hattori looked at them and walked toward the three of them.
Erika and Tatsuya looked at Hattori, who walked toward them, but…
"I\'m the Vice President, Hattori Hanzou. Welcome to the Student Council, Shiba Miyuki-san," Hattori introduced himself, ignoring that both Erika and Tatsuya were right beside him.
Erika raised her eyebrow and asked, "Are you ignoring us, Senpai?"
"Yes." Hattori nodded, then returned.
"You…!" Erika clenched her fist and wanted to beat this guy up.
Haru looked at this scene with a smile and thought that this would be interesting.
"You\'re not going to help?" Suzune suddenly asked.
"I\'m not their babysitter. How come I help them every time? If they can solve this matter by themselves, then it is useless to invite them here," Haru said.
Suzune looked at Haru and said, "You\'re so cold."
"I\'m kind. After all, if someone who doesn\'t have the ability is forced to work here, sooner or later, they might be able to handle the pressure," Haru said.
"That\'s true." Suzune nodded.
"Still, if it\'s someone that I care about, I\'ll take care of them, help them, protect them without hesitation," Haru said while looking at Suzune.
Suzune looked at Haru helplessly and said, "You sure have a lot of tricks, Haru."
"It\'s not a trick. It\'s my sincere feeling," Haru said.
"Well, I want to see your sincere feeling when you come to my house in the future," Suzune said while looking at Haru.
"Bring it on," Haru said with a smile.
The conversation between Haru and Suzune didn\'t attract much attention, after all, they were talking quietly, and no one would ever think that both of them were flirting with each other, considering Suzune\'s serious personality.
Then Mari talked about her intention to invite Tatsuya and Erika to the Disciplinary Committee, Erika and Tatsuya didn\'t say much, but someone interrupted their conversation.
"Watanabe-senpai, wait a moment, I object to electing those two freshmen as a disciplinary committee member. No "weed" has ever taken that position," Hattori said directly.
"You are not permitted to address Course 2 students as "Weeds." Quite an attitude to have there, huh?" Mari frowned at Hattori.
"What\'s the point of sugar-coating it? Or do you plan on reporting over a third of the student body to the administration? A disciplinary officer enforces the rules by force. Weed is clearly lacking in that aspect," Hattori said.
"Yes, it\'s true that we, the disciplinary committee, value power above all else, but there\'s more than just magic." Mari pointed her finger at Erika and said, "Chiba Erika is the descendant of the Chiba clan, and she has mastered the art of swordsmanship in her clan."
"What? She is?" Hattori was a bit surprised, looking at Erika. After all, her clan was part of Hundred Families and his attitude toward her also changed since he thought that she must have some abilities.
"As for Miyuki\'s older brother, while I\'m not sure about his ability since Miyuki has decided to recommend him, I\'m sure that he won\'t disappoint us," Mari said.
Hattori chuckled and said, "While it is true that they might have an ability or something, but they\'re still the Course 2 students, they\'re "Weeds"! It\'s impossible for Course 2 students with the poor magic ability to be on the moral committee! President, I\'m against this!"
"Enough!" Erika shouted and said, "I have tried to be patient, but you\'re the one who invited us, yet you\'re going to mock us like this? Do you think that I want to be in that Moral Committee too?"
Miyuki also wanted to get angry, but when Erika burst out, she didn\'t say anything but kept staring at Hattori without good eyes. As for Tatsuya, he was only in silence and didn\'t say anything.
Haru looked at Tatsuya and could only shake his head since this guy was too passive, right?
"Well, if you don\'t want to, then you can step back from this room now?" Hattori said without hesitation. "Anyway, I won\'t agree with the two of you to join this Moral Committee no matter what."
"You…!"
Suddenly the atmosphere became tense but at that moment…
"Cough! Cough!" Haru gathered everyone\'s attention and said, "Can you let me talk for a bit, Hattori-senpai?"
"Yes." Hattori nodded and asked, "What\'s wrong, Haru?" Unlike when he was with Erika and Tatsuya, Haru was a member of the 18 Assistant Houses and the most powerful one at that, so he treated Haru with respect.
"The reason why you don\'t agree with them to join the Moral Committee is that they don\'t have the ability, right, Hattori-senpai?" Haru asked.
"Yes." Hattori nodded.
"Then what if they have the ability?" Haru asked.
Hattori frowned and asked, "You think that they have the ability, Haru?"
"I\'m not sure, which is why. Why don\'t we test it?" Haru suddenly said.
"Test it?" Everyone was attracted by Haru\'s words.
"How about we have a mock battle and Hattori-senpai, can you be their opponent so you can see whether they\'re suitable to become a member of the Moral Committee or not," Haru said.
Hattori smiled and said, "Interesting, let\'s do that." He looked at Mayumi and asked, "What do you think, President?"
"I don\'t mind." Mayumi was startled, but then she nodded with a smile and looked at Tatsuya and Erika. "Shiba-kun, Chiba-san, while I know that it is quite rude, I hope that you can understand to make everyone satisfied, we can only do this."
Erika snorted and said, "That\'s what I want. Let\'s do this mock battle." She stared at Hattori, who wasn\'t pleasing to the eyes, then looked at Haru, who also manipulated this situation with a snort.
Haru only shrugged his shoulders and didn\'t say much. He then looked at Tatsuya and asked, "Tatsuya, what about you? If you don\'t want to have a mock battle, then it is better to go down now."
"Onii-sama…" Miyuki then looked at Tatsuya worriedly, but in truth, everyone had never thought of Tatsuya that much, after all, unlike Erika, who was coming from the Chiba family and had a deep knowledge about swordsmanship, Tatsuya might be smart, but no one knew how strong he was.
Tatsuya sighed and said, "Then I\'ll accept it too, but can you be my opponent, Haru?"
"!!!"
Haru raised his eyebrow and asked, "Why do you want me to be your opponent?"
"Nothing, I just have a feeling that Hattori-senpai is going to lose against Erika, so I\'ll ask you to be your opponent," Tatsuya said while looking at Haru.
Miyuki was dumbfounded by Tatsuya\'s sudden words. "Onii-sama?"
"Well, why not? But if you lose, then you won\'t get any chance to enter the Moral Committee, you know?" Haru said.
"It\'s alright," Tatsuya said without hesitation.
"Say, why don\'t you just tell the truth that I\'m not pleasing to your eyes because I\'m so close to your little sister, so you want to beat me up, if so, then I don\'t mind to humor your a bit," Haru said with a smile.
"………"
"Ha - Haru!" Miyuki couldn\'t think straight at this moment.
Tatsuya chuckled and asked, "So can you?"
Haru nodded and said relaxedly, "Sure. Then let\'s have a mock battle, you and me."
"Thank you." Tatsuya nodded.
"By the way, Miyuki." Haru then looked at Miyuki.
"What\'s wrong, Haru?" Miyuki asked.
"Don\'t hate me if I beat your brother, alright?" Haru said relaxedly.
Miyuki pouted and puffed her cheeks. "My brother will win!"
"Then how about we make a bet?" Haru asked.
"Bet?" Miyuki raised her eyebrow.
"If your brother wins, then I can grant you one request," Haru said.
"One request?" Miyuki asked.
"Un, whatever you want, whether it is for you or your brother, then I don\'t mind," Haru said without hesitation.
Miyuki was tempted since she knew Haru\'s identity as her aunt\'s lover, but then there was one problem. "What if you win?"
"Oh? You don\'t have confidence in your brother?" Haru asked.
"I have!" Miyuki said without hesitation. "But I need to know what happens if you win?"
"Well, if I win, then you\'ll grant me a quest too, isn\'t that fair?" Haru said.
Miyuki thought for a bit and nodded. "That\'s true, then I agree with this quest."
"Alright, then see you in 30 minutes. We\'ll give you time to prepare," Haru said with a smile.
"……………"
Everyone was looking at Haru and Miyuki at this moment, and somehow they had a feeling that Miyuki had fallen into Haru\'s trap at this moment.
